Apocalyptic Spirit Master

Chapter 405: Underground Quest
On the basement floor of the entire hotel building, a few dim torch lights flickered.

Luo Hou, Wu Mingsheng and the others formed a circle, looking at the oblate hole on the basement floor that led to an unknown depth underground.

The entrance of the cave is less than three meters high, but it is more than five meters wide. It leads obliquely to the ground, and it is dark and gloomy. How far down the light.

Everyone's mounts stayed outside one after another. After discussing for a while around the entrance of the cave, they decided to go down to find out what secrets were hidden underground.

Whether it's Luohou or everyone in Fengxing Eighteen Cavalry, they can faintly feel that maybe this time they are about to uncover the real reason for the outbreak of corpses around Houtu City, and use this to find a way to break the tide of corpses Come.

"Brother Luo, what's the matter, let's go down and have a look together? The secret of the corpse tide outbreak this time is estimated to be below."

Wu Mingsheng looked at Luo Hou, the expression in his eyes was greatly moved.

Luo Hou nodded, and he didn't have any objections. What Wu Mingsheng said was exactly what he thought. Whether he could find the reason for the outbreak of the corpse tide this time could only be known by going down to explore.

"Well, Menglong, you take the brothers from the first team to guard outside. If there is any accident, remember to notify us in time. Brothers from the second team, follow me and Brother Luo. If you don't find out what is hidden below today Never come up with any secrets."

"Let's go, everyone, let's go!"

Wu Mingsheng gave an order, followed by Luo Hou and eight other members of Fengxing Eighteen Cavalry, each holding a torch, and walked straight down to the deep cave entrance.

As he entered the underground cave little by little, Luohou's spirit became tense little by little, and the firepower of the detection technique was fully activated. He was very vigilant in exploring the surrounding situation, and was also faintly alert to Wu Mingsheng and others around him. If there was anything wrong, he would immediately send All the spiritual pets in the spiritual pet space are released to protect themselves.

After all, Luohou and Fengxing Shibaqi just got acquainted today, and it is impossible to know anything about them.

The so-called defensiveness is indispensable, and there is always nothing wrong with being careful.

A group of people slowly entered the depths of the cave under the light of the fire, and saw that the walls of the cave seemed to have been corroded by something. The walls of the cave looked very smooth, and there were no traces of excavation.

The size of the cave has not changed significantly, it is about [-] degrees and has been sloping down to the ground. The more you go down, the more you feel a chilly air coming slowly, and you can't help but get a layer of chicken skin pimple.

Everyone went deeper than two hundred meters, but none of them saw that the cave had reached the end, and there were no other forks, which was very strange.

Wu Mingsheng frowned, walked more slowly, and couldn't help reminding everyone:

"Be careful. The situation here is very weird. I don't know what ghosts will appear."

When everyone heard the words, they couldn't help but clenched the weapons in their hands, and their faces became even more vigilant.

On the other hand, Luo Hou's expression remained the same, but he was a little puzzled. He didn't know what made this cave, and it went all the way to the ground, and he didn't see any difference on the surrounding cave walls. The material layer of the body seems to be coated with a layer of mysterious substance, and it looks normal.

After diving for more than a hundred meters, everyone suddenly felt that the terrain under their feet suddenly became flat, and the cave in front of them suddenly increased several times, and several branch roads of similar size appeared in front of them, each leading to a different direction.

It's just that the direction of each branch road is parallel to the ground, and finally no longer continue to go deeper underground.

There are five fork roads in total, and Luo Hou, Wu Mingsheng and others only have ten people together. If they divide their troops and advance, there will be obviously insufficient manpower.

Wu Mingsheng turned his head to look at Luo Hou, and discussed: "Brother Luo, look, are we going to check the fork roads one by one, or divide the troops into two roads, and investigate the two side roads together every time?"

After going deep into the cave for so long, Luo Hou did not find any signs of life through the detection technique, but just to be on the safe side, he still suggested: "I think it's better for everyone to act together. We basically have two eyes on the following situation." Once it’s dark, it’s easier to deal with any situation if everyone stays together.”

"Okay, that's exactly what I mean." Wu Mingsheng nodded, and immediately walked into the first fork on the right, followed by Luo Hou and several others.

After everyone entered the first fork, they walked about 300 meters in a zigzag way, and they reached the end. There was no road ahead, and they entered a dead end with nothing.

Everyone didn't feel discouraged, and went back to the spacious hall before, and walked in from the second fork.

Obviously, the luck of Luo Hou, Wu Mingsheng and others was not very good today. They also went hundreds of meters deep, but they all returned without success and returned to the previous hall from the original road.

Fortunately, the distance of each side road is not too far, and it does not delay everyone for a long time. If you don't let it, it will be too uneconomical, and you will spend a lot of time wasting on the road.

After returning to the hall again, looking at a fork in the middle, Wu Mingsheng cursed with an uneasy face:

"His grandma, I hope he won't go the wrong way this time."

There is no obvious difference between the several forks, and everyone can only check them one by one in order. As for when they will find out again, they can only rely on luck.

The forked road in the middle was obviously longer, and everyone walked for nearly a mile, but they still didn't see the end.

There was no trace of frustration on the faces of the crowd, on the contrary, everyone was a little excited.

The two forks just now came to an end after only a few hundred meters of walking. Now this fork is obviously different from the previous two. It is very likely that the choice this time is finally correct!
A gleam of joy appeared on Wu Mingsheng's face, and he commanded everyone in a deep voice:
"Brothers, concentrate and be careful, and beware of any changes ahead. I'm afraid we have found a place this time."

Everyone walked a few hundred meters along the winding fork road, and suddenly the terrain sloped down again!
The damp and cold air hits the face, as if it wants to penetrate directly into the bones of the person. As the cave goes deeper into the ground, the space at the entrance of the cave gradually becomes wider, like the big mouth of a monster, wanting to choose people And eat.

Maybe it was about to find out the secret, everyone's hearts couldn't help clenched, and there was a faint fear of the unknown in the anticipation.

Finally, the corridor came to an end, and a huge space the size of a basketball court and more than ten meters high appeared in front of everyone.

Looking forward by the dim light of the fire, everyone was stunned by what they saw, unable to speak a word for a long time.

In this space, there is a layer of dark red blood pool rippling in the middle. The blood in the blood pool has dried up, leaving only a thin layer of blood. A row of three-meter-high The giant eggs were lying in this dry pool of blood, and groups of disgusting mucus were stained around each giant egg, connecting all the eggs together.

However, at this moment, the giant eggs with a number of about [-] in front of everyone's eyes have all burst open, as if something has hatched, and the inside is empty, and there is nothing there.

Even though there was no sign of life in it, everyone still couldn't help their scalps tingling. They couldn't imagine what would choose to incubate their offspring in this deep underground cave?
"Huh... there seems to be something behind it? It looks like the corpse of a giant zombie."

Luo Hou suddenly gasped, and looked towards a space behind the row of giant eggs. In the area where the firelight couldn't shine, he seemed to faintly see a huge corpse lying there.

Wu Mingsheng gritted his teeth and looked at the weird scene in front of him. He raised the torch in his hand and walked forward.

"Go, go and see what is left here, maybe you can find something."

Everyone endured the tingling sensation, followed Wu Mingsheng and Luo Hou, and walked towards the huge corpse that Luo Hou found.

With the light of the fire, the corpse finally emerged from the darkness and appeared in the eyes of everyone.

Looking at the corpse, everyone's eyes widened again, deeply shocked by what they saw.

To be precise, this corpse is just a corpse shell, lying on the open space behind those giant eggs with its limbs spread wide. It is about five meters tall and covered with a layer of purple-black scales. There are also sharp barbs on the place and on the huge head.

However, this seemingly not simple corpse turned out to be just a layer of skin taken off by some unknown zombie. Eggs are linked together.

The broken and hatched giant egg, the hollow corpse of a giant corpse, everything looks so weird, it makes people feel chills involuntarily, as if they have come to a ghost.

Luo Hou and Wu Mingsheng looked at each other in surprise and horror, their eyes lit up, and they had already guessed something at the same time, about the outbreak of the corpse tide.

Then, the expressions of the two couldn't help becoming heavy again.

Obviously, the reason for this outbreak of corpse tide must be inseparable from the row of eggshells and corpse shells in this weird space.

However, the unknown existences in these two things have already left here, and they may have been completely hidden in the corpses. How easy is it to find them out of the hundreds of millions of corpses?

This is undoubtedly an extremely difficult task!

Moreover, there is not much time left for everyone. There are many weak survivor cities, even with the help of Houtu City, it is difficult to sustain them for a long time.
