Chapter Seventy-Three: Down to the Depths
At noon, the sun is high overhead.
The crowd donned the special deep-earth combat uniforms of the Kassel Academy.
"Oxygen cylinders, equipped.
Alchemy bullet pistol, equipped.
Spare oxygen cylinders, already equipped.
Air measuring instruments, nano-scale animal nets, marking guns..."
Ming Fei has checked the equipment of the members more than twice since 10 a.m.
Five people plus captain Tian, as well as some logistics staff, excavation staff,
A total of twenty or thirty people were recorded.
Beside an innumerable pit,
Hanging a pulley on the top, an iron basket is pulled below, three meters long and two meters wide, flush with the ground.
"Mingfei, pay attention to safety,
You have to catch as many zombies as you can,
This is quite useful for our half-breed, Deadpool research,
And don't push yourself.
I don't want a good hybrid like you, especially your S-class, to die just after you arrived. ”
Guderian turned on the video remotely, admonishing.
It seems that he still has lingering feelings about the past S-class students, and only hopes that Ming Fei will not follow in his footsteps.
"Yes, my Mr. Professor." Ming Fei hung up the phone, and there was a searchlight on the yellow helmet on his head.
Road:
"Prepare to dive."
"The departments confirmed one last time,
Confirm that the rope is in place,
whether the tensile force is normal,
Have you tied up the safety rope?
Whether the lights are bright or not.
Whether the oxygen tubing is sufficient. ”
"Are you ready?" Ming Fei finally asked.
"Ready,
The lifting group is ready.
Oxygen meter content is 90 percent,
…
Everything is ready to go. ”
"It's starting to fall."
Ming Fei said loudly.
Click, click
Iron platform, slowly move down.
One meter, ten meters,
The surrounding light is getting darker and darker,
Before I knew it, there was only a narrow hole of light above my head.
"Turn on the helmet light," Ming Fei said.
After a few clicks, the surroundings immediately lit up, and the misty dust particles filled the air, floating and sinking in the light of the aperture.
They floated, fluttering upwards with the wind carried by the clattering platform.
"What is the data that the air meter displays?" Lu Mingfei asked through the glass of his combat uniform.
His voice was noticeably quieter through his combat uniform.
"The air is 77 percent nitrogen, 20 percent oxygen, and a part of the toxic gas: ammonia and hydrogen sulfide.
After an hour of inhalation, the human body will fall into a coma. Blonde Chunli Luo Lisa said as she looked at the white light on the display of the air meter.
"Okay, I'll tell you a little bit more about the inside of the pit.
There are two places in this hole, light and dark,
The bright one is above the ground, and it has been dug up to the surface,
Now two hundred meters below is the newly discovered Crypt.
According to the relevant personnel of the branch,
When they had dug down to 200 meters, they saw only a bronze gate, and when they dug a few hundred meters along its edge, they found that inside was an entire tomb made of bronze. ”
"Is it all made of bronze?" Wei Gong Masamu couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "What a magnificent construction." ”
"How many of these people have fat and anointment, exhausted the people's strength, exhausted the people's livelihood, but cast a one-man palace,
What extravagance. Ming Fei's gaze followed the stage, and his words were full of negation of this magnificent palace.
"A hundred meters of descent."
The mechanical voice in the suit was speaking to the ear.
"It is close to the Qinglong Tomb, the fully shielded magnetic field has entered, and the communication signal of the combat uniform is about to disappear."
"Click"
Six people have reached 200 meters underground,
A cylindrical cavity appeared,
Its diameter is about five meters.
"Let's go in." Ming Fei was the first to get out of the iron platform,
The other five are out.
"Let's go. Prepare flashlights and don't shine them all in one place to prevent blind spots. ”
It is not the right way.
A few people lit up the front with lights, sometimes sweeping back twice.
The bright air was filled with granular dust.
The pace of several people was steady, and the sound of combat uniforms stepping on hard ground was under their feet step by step.
About 100 meters, there is now a bronze cast gate.
The door was on the left and right, showing an eerie red color in the light of white light, and there were beast faces on each side of the doorway, and the teeth on the mouth were exposed, section after section.
"Prepare the key serum," Ming Fei said cautiously.
The key serum is the only key of the Kassel Academy, which is taken out by the descendants of the Chen family.
Drip it into the tomb and the gate will open.
Ming Fei took out a glass bottle from Luo Lisa's hand behind him, unscrewed the cap, and took out a test tube of serum inside.
Drop it into your mouth.
A hissing sound sounded from where the bronze gate dripped from the place,
One gap is getting bigger and bigger.
until one person can enter.
Six people entered the cave in front and behind.
Under the white light, the inside was extremely wide, eight or nine meters wide.
In the light, there are countless rows of white bronze statues. Each one stands upright.
"What is this?"
Ming Fei walked towards the statue, and he gently knocked down the body of the bronze statue, and the sound of tapping was the sound.
Something seems to be embedded in it. Ming Fei knocked twice more, as if to determine something.
"There's something in there."
"What is it, won't it be gold and silver treasures?" Luo Lisa said.
"Bring me the hammer."
As a big man, Oros naturally took more things than others, he groped from his left waist to the right, and finally handed the hammer with a sharp front concave to Ming Fei.
"Everyone stay away from me a little, after all, no one knows what's inside," Ming Fei said.
He picked up a special hammer and struck it at the statue's neck.
It was only a hammer made by the Ministry of Equipment, made of alchemy mechanics, harder than diamond, and the blow did not even take effect.
"Whew"
Ming Fei used all his strength to strike again,
The statue finally opened a hole, and the bronze shards fell one after another.
Ming Fei saw a person through the light, a corpse to be exact.
The corpse was dressed in linen clothes, and it had not decomposed after more than 100 years.
It seems that because of the embedded bronze, the body still looks a little vibrant.
"Wow" Seeing this, Wei Gong Zhengmai gave a small wow.
"Look at the clothes, look at his palms, there are still some dirt stains in them." Ming Fei looked at the still standing corpse and decided.
"Knock a few more."
The crowd struck three bronze statues, all of which were filled with people, most of them dressed in coarse linen clothes.
"What are these people for, why are they here?" Gero had something to say.
"Who knows, looking at it, their scalps are numb, how could someone pour them alive into bronze" Emiya Masamei also felt that something was wrong.
According to the analysis of the previous branch, this batch of bronzes was cast in the Daqing Longzhi period, that is, in 1662.
Bronze mausoleum, built under a depth of earth 200 meters above the ground,
These people must have been recruited by a group of craftsmen, who dug two hundred meters deep and built this huge bronze mausoleum in the middle of this deep pit.
Finally, it was poured into a statue of the mausoleum. ”
Ming Fei shook his head and speculated.
"What a desperate bunch," Olus lamented.
However, Brother Jie looked at these ancients hundreds of years ago and remembered: the villagers who went to the city to move bricks, they built one high-rise building after another, but in the end they couldn't afford it.
