Chapter 993: Ancient Labyrinth City

Night, silent forest.

A team of more than a thousand people was scattered around in an orderly manner, forming a defensive formation like an iron barrel.

"squeak"

Intermittent electrical noise came from the intercom.

"Sir Giles, Squad Six has lost contact."

The member in charge of communications reported to Giles, who was close at hand.

"It is determined to be dead, and the numbers of the remaining teams remain unchanged."

Giles stared at a dark place in a certain direction of the forest, his tone was indifferent, and in a few words, he judged the fact that all the sixth team, whose whereabouts were unknown, had died.

The correspondent's eyes trembled, did he make a decision without hesitation without even asking the usual next step?

In this way, even if there are survivors in the sixth team, according to the judgment of the person in charge, the team will not send people to search for help.

Is this a form of abandonment?

"learn."

The correspondent's thoughts only paused for a moment, and he quickly adjusted his mentality to perform his duties.

Giles glanced at the correspondent, and immediately walked towards a team not far away.

Everyone in the team stayed still in a specific position, did not light the light source, and did not whisper.

They hadn't come camping, and they were well aware of the dangers of the forest.

Tonight, they have heard the screams alone no less than fifty times.

However, in the few days after entering the sea of ​​trees, the number of teammates who fell behind and disappeared was more than a hundred.

Under a giant tree, the **** Jim Carrey sat cross-legged at the bottom of the tree, rustling writing in a notebook with a pen.

Five not weak mind ability users surrounded him, responsible for protecting his safety.

"Rolling sharp grass balls? Even the 'hardness' of a Psychic can't resist. Due to the limitations of the terrain, if the guns are used carelessly, the noise caused may attract more troublesome existences."

"Butterfly life forms with bat wings,

It is basically invisible during the day, and it appears at night. It is undoubtedly a nocturnal creature. Its attack method is a slender tail with a length of three meters, which has a blood-sucking effect. Once stabbed, it will be sucked away in only five seconds. all blood. "

"A strange tree that can split the belly of the tree and stick out twenty barbed vines from it. The strange thing is that those vines will be like man-eating plants when they attack, using the barbed vines of different shapes to form a side Seamless net, and then to seal the prey."

"The more difficult thing is that the appearance of this strange tree is not uniform. Based on the existing information, it is very likely to have the same characteristics as hermit crabs."

"If you can't find a way to determine the identity of the strange tree in a short period of time, before crossing the sea of ​​trees, you must be careful of any big tree at all times."

Jim Carrey stopped writing suddenly and let out a long sigh.

"If it wasn't for the accident of the 'guide', the established itinerary would not have deviated so far, and it might not have lost so many people. Now the information is too scarce, and every kind of information collected is almost in exchange for blood. of."

"Although it's uncomfortable, we still have to rely on the ability of the 'guide' when we return, so we don't even have the qualifications to criticize and be angry."

Beside him, the five bodyguards kept their eyes on their respective directions. They had long been used to Jim Carrey's muttering to himself while taking notes.

At this moment, they noticed that the person in charge, Giles, was walking towards this side, and they all paid attention.

Until Giles came not far from him, they all saluted.

As one of the persons in charge of the Ferry Bureau, one of the survivors of the Dark Continent, the leader of this operation, and the most powerful member of the team, no matter where they go, the subordinates will sincerely send their sincere thanks. he luggage.

This kind of meaningless behavior in Giles's view, even though he had verbally said that it was not necessary, the phenomenon of saluting still existed.

Giles came to Jim Carrey.

Due to the tall and big body, the footsteps were slightly heavy without deliberately suppressing it, which also attracted Jim Carrey's attention.

Jim Carrey looked up at Giles who came in front of him, and asked, "Is it time?"

Giles shook his head: "There are five minutes left in the rest time. You are not a psychic, and your physical fitness and stamina are limited, so I would like to remind you that you should take a good rest during the rare rest time."

"Understood, I will make adjustments as soon as possible." Jim Carrey said seriously.

"hope so."

Giles turned and left.

Jim Carrey looked at Giles' back, then looked down at his notebook.

"Did you come here just for such a trivial matter? No, maybe in his eyes, this is not a trivial matter."

Also, although the contact time is not long, it can be seen that Captain Giles's behavior style is all-round and does not allow any omissions

"Maybe it's a bit extreme, but it's also because of this that the team this time is so comprehensive."

Five minutes passed, and the team from the Ferry Bureau continued on its way.

Dangers are everywhere in the sea of ​​trees, especially at night, which can be said to be the most dangerous time of the day.

Based on this consideration, the Transit Bureau team adopted the strategy of rushing at night and resting during the day after the route changed.

After all, this is not the most edge of the coastline, and the team of the Transit and Navigation Bureau does not have an absolutely safe place to rest like the Four-Dimensional Apartment.

Originally, after landing on the coastline, the Transit Bureau team only needed to walk 400 kilometers to reach the destination ancient labyrinth city.

However, due to changes in the route guidance, the place where the team landed has changed, so the 400-kilometer journey has become thousands of kilometers.

Because of this, the team will spend twice as much time on the road.

Not only that, but the change of the route has increased the danger several times, which is also the reason for the serious attrition of the team.

For a full twenty days, the Transit Bureau team lost 15 combatants and 6 logistics members, and finally successfully arrived at the outer circle of the ancient labyrinth city.

"Finally here again."

Giles looked up at the high wall outside the labyrinth city, his eyes sparkling.

"This time, definitely get the vanilla, absolutely!"

A silent cry sounded in my heart, which was not known by the surrounding teammates.

Everyone in the team of the Bureau of Transit and Navigation stared solemnly at the high unknown metal wall in front of them.

"The height is more than 60 meters, right?" Someone whispered to himself.

"It's incredible. Is this kind of building really built by ancient humans?"

As long as one thinks that there are tens of thousands of such high-walled buildings in the ancient labyrinth city, one can't help feeling shocked.

How did ancient humans build such a majestic labyrinth city in such a dangerous environment as the Dark Continent?

And this level of fortress, can't provide shelter for human survival?
