Chapter 168 Underground Underground

'click...'

It sounded like something was running, and it rang out on the ground covered with golden statues.

The gravel on the ground was shaking slightly, and the spy could clearly feel that something was moving underground.

And this noise seemed to have an impact on the 'creator', it seemed to be frightened and flew farther away from the current spy's position.

'Boom...'

After tens of seconds, the tremor also stopped slowly.

It used to feel like something was about to come out, but now it doesn't look like it... In short, go find the "creator" first, and don't get too far away from it.

Following that, the spy went in the direction of the 'creator'.

After walking for a while in the aisle between the statues, the spy came to the end of the fire. Although the statues here continued to line up, there were no torches on the ground.

This made the surroundings appear pitch black.

Although pitch darkness is not a problem for spies, it makes Lin feel that there may be some traps here, because there are no creatures here to obtain nutrients, and it will be more difficult to recover if injured.

Maybe some 'reinforcements' should come here.

While thinking so, the spy also stepped into the darkness.

There are large lobster statues lined on both sides here. This seems to be the first time that Lin has seen a statue of aquatic creatures, although it is still arthropod...

Looking at the traces on these statues, Lin knew that they were very old things like the others.

If you see a new one, it means it was built recently. And it usually looks very different.

in this darkness. The spy saw a statue of Mao Yu appear next to him.

This Maoyu is three meters long. Compared with the surrounding statues, it is small, but it looks quite imposing with golden hair like sharp blades standing all over its body.

This thing was obviously created recently, but there are no atmospheric creatures responsible for controlling it.

The spy goes on in the dark,

It was getting farther and farther from the place where there was fire before. The spy looked at the light behind from time to time. Lin felt that the flames were triggered by some kind of mechanism, so after the spy left. Maybe it will go out.

Just when Lin thought so, the firelight in the distance suddenly disappeared, and the entire cave instantly entered complete darkness...

However, the spy also arrived at the position where the previous creator stayed at this time.

Before the spy made the sound, the creator stayed here all the time. It seemed to be fiddling with something and ran away after the sound. Now it is dozens of meters away from here, and it keeps going Fly farther.

Lin can leave it alone and investigate this place first. Because there is something different here.

Between the two statues to the left of the spy stood what looked like a stone tablet.

The stele is two meters high. The width is also two meters, and the spy found that a lot of things like words were carved on it.

Although Lin still doesn't understand these words, but Lin knows which creature understands... That Imam, it said that it understands some words about the 'Creator'.

But don't ask it for now, because, in these characterizations, the spy can smell the creator's scent.

Obviously, it moved these words not long ago, and... According to the residual smell information, Lin found that it may have been stroking these inscribed words with her fingers, and every word on it has traces of smell.

And the spy can tell which smell is newer, and can tell that it touched the words on the stone tablet in a certain order.

Maybe this triggers something?

The spy also ran his fingers through each word slowly, and in exactly the order of the creator.

"Boom..." When the spy reached the tenth character, there was a sound from the ground behind the stone tablet...

I didn't expect it to be really effective, it seems that no special signal is needed, just touch it.

The spy walked behind the stone tablet and found an opening on the ground, which seemed to be a passage leading to the depths of the ground.

However, the creator's message did not extend into this cave... that is to say, it was just drawing those words and did not enter this place.

Still, the spy wanted to go in there and have a look...and maybe find something interesting.

The spy walked into the passage. The ground here is quite smooth, just like the surrounding rock walls, it was specially constructed, and there are quite a few... paintings on the rock walls on both sides of this passage.

These stone paintings are painted with a creature that looks like a fish... No, this should be a 'half fish', those raised creatures that help the silver armored dragon carry things...

And in the painting here, they are also carrying things.

The half-fish on the rock wall carry various shapes, most of which are square objects, and the paintings extend along with the rock walls, while the paintings on both sides of the rock walls show that they are transporting in one direction holding something.

Next to these 'porters', there is also a drawing of a huge fish. Their shape is somewhat like a fish called 'stone fish'. They are fat and have sharp teeth. It seems to be monitoring the handling of Banyu...

And on the bodies of these 'stone fish', there is also a small creature - ancient squid, which seems to be lying on the body of the fish and doing nothing.

Are they...

In the next painting, Lin sees the end of their transport, and the painting here shows that these half-fish are piecing things together and making a large... scorpion.

Could it be that...the statues outside were made by them?

However, there is no detailed piecing process in the painting, just drawing them to put things together, and then they become scorpions.

Seeing this, the spy's journey in the passage has come to an end. Now there is a stone wall in front of the spy. According to the previous experience, Lin believes that it will definitely continue to move forward here.

The spy knocked on the wall a little. from the echoing sound. Lin could indeed hear that there was an open space inside. But if you listen carefully...

The agency should be in this position...

'Boom! ' The spy kicked the wall hard, and a lot of gravel fell off the wall. At the same time, the place where the spy kicked also sank in. Then, the whole wall made a sound and slowly moved to one side. .

Sure enough, the agency is in this position.

"Boom..." After the wall was completely moved over. The spy stepped into the inner room, and the first thing he saw was a large number of... golden little beetles.

They seem to be inlaid on the ground, each beetle has two pairs of sharp jaws, and the number is quite dense, but there is still enough space between them for spies to walk through.

The spy walked slowly among these beetles. In this room, in addition to the beetles all over the floor, there were also some tall golden ammonite statues...

These statues should be real statues, not moving things.

And here on the rock wall. You can also see many paintings, and the main character in these paintings is still a half-fish. Creatures such as ancient squid carry those large statues in the painting, and some atmospheric creatures fly down from the sky in the painting, and they seem to be receiving these statues and moving them into the air.

Although Lin felt that atmospheric creatures couldn't move these statues, they must have some way.

However, this also seems to prove that the statues here are all made by half-fish and then handed over to the atmospheric creatures in the sky?

In all the paintings, there is no 'creator'.

It seems that it is still difficult to figure out the relationship between them... But it is confirmed that a large number of sea creatures once lived here...

In addition to painting half-fish to make statues, the painting also depicts the life they lived. They built their own nests out of rocks and lived with ancient squids.

Ancient squids usually do nothing, at least in paintings they look like this.

This place is full of water, but I don't know why it is so dry now.

'click...'

The spy suddenly heard a voice behind him.

I saw the surface of a golden beetle statue on the ground cracked.

Strange, does this figurine move? The spy squatted down and looked at it carefully. The golden shell of the statue was slowly cracking, and under the golden color, there was a dark carapace...

Could it be that this is... a living thing?

The golden shell of the beetle almost completely fell off, and a beetle with a black carapace appeared in front of the spy. It kept shaking the tentacles of its head and moving on the ground...

This beetle... not a controlled alloy device, but a living creature.

And the same thing happened to the nearby beetles, which slowly began to shed their shells and swayed about on the ground.

Suddenly, a beetle touched the spy's foot.

Almost in an instant, all the beetles surrounded the spy, and they climbed onto the spy at an extremely fast speed. The beetle swarm completely wrapped the spy, and the spy felt that every part of his body was being bitten by them constantly. on.

More beetles gathered around, and they surrounded the spy's position one by one, and the spy didn't make any movement...

In this way, the beetle group that surrounded the spy has been piled up under the stone wall, motionless, this state has been going on for a long time...for a long time.

until at some point.

'Snapped! ' A hand came out of the beetle pile, and then, the whole body.

The spy came out of the beetle swarm and patted the hanging beetle on his body.

Looking at the pile of beetles before, they are not moving now. In fact, most of them have entered a dormant state, but some of them have been 'eaten' by spies.

A lot of interesting phenomena have been found in them, especially...their memory. (To be continued..)
