"When the explosion occurred in the Tunguska area, this area was called a ghost tomb, and the phenomenon of spontaneous combustion of animals was endless, these things can't all be because of a sleeping illusion core, right?"

Even if Gogol tells some of the truth about the outpost research base, there is definitely more to the Tunguska region than meets the secrets.

In the face of Bai Ning's questioning, Gogol didn't even raise his head.

"The only thing I'm concerned about is this outpost research base.

In my opinion, if I can crack the core of the illusion, it will be easy to get a peek into the other secrets of the Tunguska region.

It's a pity that the core of the illusion is not something that we mortals can touch after all.

Now that it has begun to self-destruct, if you want to leave, leave quickly. ”

Gogol's face was so excited that he didn't have the slightest intention of explaining too much.

"Let's go."

Seeing that he couldn't get anything from Gogol's mouth, Bai Ning didn't procrastinate, and turned around and left directly.

Facing this Gogol, who seemed to have lost all his fighting spirit, Jiang Yingxue only glanced at him deeply, and left with Bai Ning.

"Wait.

I know you're still very interested in the secrets of the Tunguska region, so if you can, study it for my grandfather. ”

Just as Bai Ning took a few steps, Gogol stopped Bai Ning again and casually threw out a very old booklet.

Bai Ning opened it and looked at it twice, it was all some diagrams and formulas and theorems, such as some casually recorded research experiences, it is estimated that this is the lifelong research experience of Grandpa Gogol, and it is likely that some of the research is related to the Tunguska region.

After getting what he wanted, Bai Ning would not stay, urging Jiang Yingxue to wake up Ivan and his party at a faster speed.

Ten minutes later, Ivan urged a group of outlaws to start carrying things out of the tunnel, but when it was in full swing, Bai Ning saw that Gogol was still sitting cross-legged in place, without any posture of leaving together.

"Aren't you leaving?"

As if sensing Gogol's special state of mind, Bai Ning, who took the translator Bo Xinshan, leaned over and asked a few words.

Even when he heard the content of Bo Xinshan's translation, Gogol didn't mean to open his eyes and respond, it seemed that the withered Gogol who had meditated in the endless void had returned.

Looking at the deeply settled Gogol in front of him, the illusory feeling that seemed to be integrated with the entire underground space made Bai Ning seem to faintly spy on his state of mind.

The obsession of a lifetime of chasing but self-destruction as the ultimate destination, part of the consciousness is also trapped in the maze of illusions I don't know how many years, endless suffering in exchange for the final silence, perhaps, the original strong, arrogant, selfish to the limit of Gogol in this short moment completely wiped out.

The so-called epiphany is the killing of a part of self-knowledge.

Or, this is the feeling of the heart as dead ashes, the traces of the dust of time.

Meaningless illusion immortality may not be a good thing.

The members of the Daredevil Society, who had experienced the illusion together, didn't know what he had experienced in this illusion labyrinth.

Is it in this infinite illusion that I understand the limitations of the delusion of immortality, or in this almost infinite fantasy cycle I see the road to heaven of immortality.

Suffering, tempering, these things are always just some neutral words, some people are enlightened in them, and some people are completely blackened in them.

After more than two hours, all personnel and supplies were evacuated, and it was like a final send-off, and the whole ground began to shake violently.

With a dull crumbling sound, a huge depression appeared in front of everyone, and the former stony low mountain was completely reduced to a deep valley, and many years later, it was a green lake.

All the secrets are buried in the rubble, and as the water slowly erodes, they gradually disperse in the rings of history.

Just a dormant illusion core has made three generations of Gogol's ancestors and grandchildren exhaust their lives to chase, how many fragments of this ancient civilization are hidden in this vast Tunguska region?

Bai Ning had a key in his hand, but he was also a little distracted at this time, unsure if it would be able to open an ancient ruin somewhere.

As this journey was completely annihilated in the dust, Bai Ning also attached more importance to the notebook in his hand, and he didn't know if there was a similar clue to spontaneous combustion in Grandpa Gogol's complicated notes.

……

Encamping on the edge of a huge pit can reduce the raid of the beasts in at least one direction, and the outlaws, who have been asleep for a few days, first concentrated on replenishing a wave of stamina, and then began to build a temporary camp.

They have done this kind of thing many times, and in the middle of the road, the prototype of the camp has been built.

A steel fortress guarded by heavy machine guns and a large number of pre-buried explosives had been completed, and Bai Ning, who had made a round, returned to the center of the camp to find Jiang Yingxue still studying the notebook with many hidden records.

"Any major discoveries?"

Picking up a cup of new tea after the rain and sipping it slowly, Bai Ning asked casually.

"With such a heavy burden on me, you are very idle."

Jiang Yingxue closed her notes, rubbed her slightly sore temples, and slowed down for a long time before she responded absentmindedly.

"With such a small private notebook, can you still record the secrets of the world?

If the things recorded in this can go beyond the core of the illusion, I'm afraid that Gogol would have led the previous expedition team into the core area of Tunguska a long time ago. ”

Based on the general factual logic, Bai Ning didn't think that this booklet could be of any great use, but only hoped that it would record more details about the truth about the ghost tomb.

If we go further, there are more records of spontaneous combustion of animals, which will be more conducive to the subsequent expedition.

"From a scientific point of view, this is indeed a book of inspiration for Grandpa Gogol's profession.

As you might have guessed, there are not many records of Tunguska in it, but they are useful.

It also involves, for example, some rumors of investigations during the Tsarist period, as well as speculation about such rumors by Grandpa Gogol.

The ghost grave is the name given to the Tunguska explosion area during the Tsarist period, and the animals that look like pigs but not pigs, and the reindeer that spontaneously combust are all recorded.

The clever giant boar and the giant reindeer with poisonous blood, both of which we have already seen in real life, are really nothing to be mysterious.

However, the scavengers that Gogol once spoke of are also covered in this notebook.

This scavenger is very sensitive to blood, small in size, but unusually fierce in temperament, and the only drawback is photophobia.

In addition, individuals bitten by this scavenger will also be infected by the bacteria in their mouths, initially with a high fever, and after a few days, they will become extremely violent due to neurological lesions.

This brain lesion was not found to be similar to a bacterial infection after dissection, and Gogol's grandfather thought that it was caused by prions.

As for the source of prions, they may come from scavengers, but the specifics are not too clear. ”

Jiang Yingxue's introduction to scavengers is very detailed, and this animal can be extremely dangerous for subsequent expeditions, especially if there are giant wild boars harassing them.

If the war between them and the beast community attracts scavengers, if they don't handle it well, they are likely to suffer a double attack on the ground and underground.

"These are all minor questions, is there any other useful information in the notes?"

External threats are constant, and there is no point in focusing too much on them, and only by finding more information about the ancient ruins of Tunguska can we better explore them.

Bai Ning's response made Jiang Yingxue smile, like some kind of inexplicable laughter, and as if he was laughing at Bai Ning for not knowing anything about the Tunguska region.

"Before, you dared to break into the Tunguska region with a crystal nucleus, but now that you have experienced so many things, how do you feel that you have become even less ignorant?"

Jiang Yingxue laughed and teased, like a slightly coercive temptation.

"Focusing too much on useless details will always have a subtle impact on the end goal.

The Tunguska region has been in turmoil for more than a hundred years, and there are countless traces of exploration left around it, and what we have done before is nothing more than verifying hearsay and trying to collect the traces of previous explorations.

Luckily, we were lucky enough to find a lot of tangible traces and get a variety of research fragments.

However, since the Tunguska explosion to the present, it is still an unsolved mystery in the world, do you think this level of secret realm can be completely unlocked by visiting a few traces left by modern times?

Boss Jiang, our trip here is to try to focus on the road of exploration through some special clues, not to go straight to the ultimate secret of the Tunguska area without distractions.

Our journey, which may succeed or fail, is still an unknown certainty. ”

Bai Ning's response was very crisp, like a clever sophistry, which instantly took her responsibility away, but it really touched Jiang Yingxue's strange laughter, causing her to laugh.

"Interesting. It's really interesting.

Or, to put it more mildly, we're collaborators."

Jiang Yingxue responded with a smile, the smile on her face was thick, making this cold camp instantly noisy, but no one responded, like an inopportune carnival, making the already cold occasion become dead silent.

So many people died on this trip, and so much financial resources were spent, did it disappear like this?

On the surface, Jiang Yingxue's abnormal behavior at this time was to express her dissatisfaction with Bai Ning, but this dissatisfaction was obviously not in line with Jiang Yingxue's bearing.

Moreover, they are well aware of the possibility of failure on this trip, and they are unlikely to make a big deal about such a trivial matter.

The only possibility is that Jiang Yingxue's state of mind has changed to a certain extent because of the illusion maze.

If the spirit riot in the secret laboratory was only limited to fighting with a group of biochemical specimens, then this consciousness illusion in the outpost research base has begun to touch the most incredible spiritual illusion.

There are more and more supernatural-related things in the Tunguska area, and all things are beyond Jiang Yingxue's understanding, and now it is not something she wants to dodge, so she will definitely be able to dodge.

Perhaps, at some point in the future, Jiang Yingxue will die at the moment of failure.

For this kind of person who holds an unknown amount of billions of wealth, for this kind of person who holds absolute power in her hands, once she dies, then everything she has will disappear in an instant.

Therefore, the words between them seem to be limited to success or failure, but in fact, they are already implicitly discussing death.
