Urban Legends: The Legacy of Ancient Civilizations

Bai Ning was also surprised by Ivan's answer.

At first listening to Ivan's words, Bai Ning thought that Ivan and others were gradually dispersed after several attacks by the beasts. He did not expect that they would be annihilated one by one in this false dense forest.

This area is neither big nor small. At first, Bai Ning thought this was a place where ancient ruins were used to keep animals in captivity. Now it seems that this area may just be an amusement park for people to have fun.

So, where were the ancient ruins actually used to keep animals in captivity?

During the previous communication with the Illusion Core, Bai Ning felt that the Illusion Core was used to destroy this ancient ruins. It led Bai Ning and others to leave in order to use Bai Ning to compete with the management core and carry out a greater extent on the ancient ruins. of destruction.

But judging from the current situation, the true appearance of the ancient ruins has not yet been revealed. They were just trapped in a small area, wandering around here, and then had no choice but to leave.

It can be said that without turning on the lights, the probability of Bai Ning leading the remaining people out of here is actually not high.

It can be seen that the lamp here should be turned on by the illusion core, and its purpose is to make Bai Ning aware of the deception of him by the management core.

As long as Bai Ning's desire to explore is big enough, he can even fight his way out regardless of the cost and go straight to the central area that is the core of management.

Based on this speculation, is it possible that the escape way provided by the core of the illusion is just a bait?

"Ivan, how did you get in in the first place?"

Bai Ning's question made Ivan confused for a moment. Through his reaction, Bai Ning also completely confirmed that they came in from different directions.

“After descending to a certain height, we came to the bottom of the tunnel and then followed a one-way road to get here.

Boss, you don’t want to leave from where we came in, do you?

Not long after we entered, some people in the team attacked each other as if they suddenly went crazy. It was probably due to the attack of the scavenger virus.

We lost a total of more than a dozen people there, and their blood flowed all over the ground, probably completely contaminating that area.

Not only that, we also encountered a landslide on the way, and the passage we came from had been blocked, otherwise we wouldn't have been driven here by a group of wild beasts. "

Ivan's response was very embarrassing, because he suddenly realized a very fatal problem - the exit passage Bai Ning mentioned could not be the tunnel they came from.

After working on it for such a long time, everyone was taking it for granted in their own logical misunderstandings. Ivan really regretted not reporting some basic contents to Bai Ning as soon as possible.

What Ivan said at this time completely confirmed the various details Bai Ning had discovered in the temple before.

It is estimated that Ivan and others were walking through a certain tunnel on the underground level of the temple. Due to the bombardment of thermal weapons from the civil strife, the already unstable underground level collapsed to a certain extent.

“There is more than one way to get in here, and the way out of here doesn’t have to go all the way back.

Do you still remember those strange creatures that suddenly appeared in the Tunguska dense forest in the legend of the Tunguska Ghost Tomb? The passage they left here is our way to survive. "

Bai Ning could clearly see Ivan's panicky mood swings at this moment. In order to eliminate possible unstable factors, he could only say a few perfunctory words.

Hearing Bai Ning's response, Ivan felt happy again. It turned out to be a misunderstanding.

fine.fine.

As if they had already gone through some deliberation, and as if it was just based on Bai Ning's personal judgment, the team of more than a dozen people set off again and walked in the direction away from here.

Along the way, they saw no sign of the beast again, except that the model was a model.

This weird phenomenon was indeed unsettling, but due to the herd mentality and the temporary safety of the team, no one suspected anything.

As the subsequent journey became smoother and smoother, everyone's speed gradually increased, and it seemed that their road to victory was right in front of them.

More than an hour later, everyone came to a stone wall. After another hour of trekking around the stone wall, a dark hole finally appeared in front of them.

Seeing that they could finally leave this nightmare-like place, many desperadoes couldn't help but cheer.

They were excited by the pleasure of escaping from their own lives, and their strength seemed to be stronger. They were about to go through this doorway to the free world.

Ivan was also very happy at this time, but when he saw the serious faces of Bai Ning and others, the smile on his face gradually faded.

"The intersection we are leaving is just ahead. Is there anything important that we haven't done yet?"

Ivan had the courage to go up and ask, but he didn't get any reply from Bai Ning.

"Ivan, according to our journey, the overall area of ​​this underground cavity should not be large, but why didn't we see another corpse during our subsequent journey?

We haven't even seen the weapons and equipment you left behind.

It is as if the area we are walking in now is an area that has never been visited before.

If so, the cave entrance we are currently in is not the cave entrance you came from. "

Bai Ning did not answer, but Jiang Yingxue told the questions in her mind. She believed that such questions must also appear in Bai Ning's mind.

“Boss, are you saying that there are many similar areas here?

Could it be that the reason why we were so beaten here before was because we repeatedly circled in different areas, so that we completely lost our way here? "

Ivan was also a little confused about the conjecture given by Jiang Yingxue. He had a feeling about it, but he didn't know where the danger was.

Although Bai Ning was not interested in the conversation between the two, under the current circumstances, he had to ensure the smooth flow of information to the team, so he still asked.

After learning Jiang Yingxue's point of view, Bai Ning just shook his head and denied it.

“There is absolutely no use in thinking about and worrying about this issue.

The entire ancient ruins are unfamiliar to us, and the way out is not fixed for us, and is extremely random.

Therefore, if we leave from every doorway here, we have a certain probability of leaving here.

In addition, the sudden changes here must have their own internal logic of confrontation. We are not allowed to miss the opportunities that appear in front of us during this period. "

Bai Ning concealed the core of the illusion, which made Jiang Yingxue even more confused. Since they must go through this passage, why would Bai Ning still hesitate here?

Is it a habitual trade-off, or just a sense of danger coming from the depths of instinct?

Without further discussion, the group of people entered the doorway one after another and returned to darkness, which made many desperadoes nervous.

They have experienced too much fear in the darkness, and naturally they do not want to fall back into despair again after seeing hope.

The atmosphere along the way was very quiet, with strong flashlights piercing the darkness and moving forward slowly. Everyone wanted to embark on a path out of here.

However, the length of the tunnel made everyone slowly become restless.

The tunnel they came from was very short, which seemed to prove that the doorway they chose was not the correct direction to leave.

On a slightly more pessimistic note, this is a symbol of their continued journey deeper into the ancient ruins.

Their way of life is slowly being cut off, and they will eventually stay here forever like those who died tragically before.

They originally thought that the team's reunion was a hope of rebirth, but they didn't expect that what awaited them would still be almost endless despair.

Although the boredom and fear among the team were covered by darkness, this did not mean that they would not communicate with Ivan.

Ivan, who had the same fear, could only endure it silently alone. Now with the collective emotional feedback from the large army, it was a good opportunity to strike up a conversation and spy on Bai Ning.

"boss.

The tunnel we came in from was very short, and it seemed as if we all ran out in just a few charges.

We have obviously taken the wrong passage now. Should we go back in time and look for the correct passage in the fake forest again? "

Ivan's careful probing shocked Jiang Yinxue, but recalling Bai Ning's previous judgment that this tunnel was their last remaining opportunity, she also became a little hesitant.

“Ivan said that the length of this tunnel is completely different from when we came in, which at least indicates that there is something wrong with the direction we left.

What, do I need to go back again? "

Jiang Yingxue only fed back the information truthfully. Bai Ning's subsequent judgment was not something she should worry about.

“I have already said that opportunity has the contingency of time before us.

We have left that underground cavity, and there is no chance to return. Only by continuing to walk is our only chance to leave here. "

Bai Ning's answer made both Jiang Yingxue and Ivan very confused. They couldn't look back. Could it be because the light in the fake forest had disappeared, and would they fall into a desperate situation again if they went back?

Anyway, Bai Ning's judgment seemed to be correct, and the two of them could only continue to follow silently. As for the emotions of the other desperadoes, Ivan could only comfort them as much as possible, telling them that this path was the right one.

The team's overall mood finally calmed down, when a wailing sound suddenly came from the tunnel ahead.

All the desperadoes were already frightened, and one by one they picked up their weapons and were on guard. Some of the timid ones were even scared to death.

If a group of wild beasts rush out from the other end of the tunnel again, only God knows how many people here have the will to resist.
