withering day

Chapter 22

After calming down a bit, the two began to observe the surrounding environment.This is a secret room, about the same size as the underground secret room of the laboratory in the previous ruins, but the decoration here is hundreds of times better. The walls are made of metal, the floor is tiled, and the ceiling is made of snow-white limestone.The secret room is not empty, there are some tables and chairs, and a few metal platforms, and all kinds of instruments are still like new, which is shocking.

"Look!" Han Mo shook Shui Hanjiang's hand.

In front of the two of them, that is, in the center of the eyes seen in the sky, there is a one-meter-high crystal column, and above the column is an irregular and strange spar, which rotates slowly, just in line with the beam of light. The surrounding rock groups rotate in the same direction.

"What? Uh..." Just as he was about to step forward to check, Han Mo suddenly felt that the scales on his body had completely disappeared, his body was no longer hot, and his body was no different from that of an ordinary person.He looked at Shui Hanjiang, and all of Shui Hanjiang's symptoms also disappeared. Except for the dust on his body, it was impossible to tell that he had been contaminated with blood.

While Han Mo was in a daze, Shui Hanjiang was already close to the pillar, and involuntarily reached out and touched the floating strange spar.A numb feeling immediately spread throughout his body, as if an electric current flowed through his body just now.When he held the spar in his hand, the feeling of being electrified disappeared, and the spar lay coldly in his palm, looking like a piece of crystal.

As the spar was removed, the rocks floating in the sky suddenly fell down, and Han Mo screamed, the falling of these rocks was enough to bury them.Shui Hanjiang reacted quickly, and immediately put the spar back on the pillar, and the weightless state resumed, and all the fallen stones floated back, continuing to form a belt of chaotic rocks, spinning.

"Scared to death..." Han Mo was still a little scared.

"Don't touch this thing, let's look at other things first." Shui Hanjiang said strangely, it seems that the weightlessness in this area is all caused by this spar, and what it is is extremely mysterious.

Turning around in the secret room, the two completely laymen didn't know what the functions of these instruments were at all. Han Mo found something like a main gate, but after pulling it up, these instruments did not change in any way, probably from here The electrical system has long since been destroyed.The difference from the previous secret room is that the walls here are very clean, with no murals or words, it seems that this is a real laboratory.

Wiping the table with his hand, Shui Hanjiang was puzzled, although he was stunned.Thousands of years have passed, and the place is spotless and extremely clean. It must be the effect of that mysterious spar.

Neither of them found the door in the secret room. It seems that the void above the spar is the only entrance and exit here, but the weightlessness field below is much smaller than the outside, and it cannot bear the weight of a person at all. Getting out from above is almost impossible.The surrounding metal walls seem to be inlaid in one piece, without any gaps. When you tap it with your hands, the sound is very dull, and it is not hollow.

"What should we do? We're trapped here." Han Mo sighed, but he was also slightly relieved. They were trapped in the secret room and couldn't get out, and the monsters outside couldn't get in, so it was safe for the time being.

Shui Hanjiang shook his head, there was nothing he could do.

"Maybe we can remove the spar, and we can climb up after the top stone falls down, but...the things outside are not easy to deal with, we don't have their breath now, I'm afraid we will be torn to pieces when we encounter them !"

With a flash of light in his eyes, Shui Hanjiang came to the pillar and said: "Things outside dare not approach here, it should be the function of the whole spar, so as long as we carry this spar, maybe they will not dare to approach us!"

After speaking, he turned his head to look at Han Mo, and asked seriously, "Do you want to take a gamble?"

What choice do you have at this time, either stay here until you are starved to death, or you can only gamble and still have a chance of survival, Han Mo can only choose the latter.The space in the secret room is very small, but some of the rocks suspended in the sky are very huge, and the place where the two can hide is very small.Shui Hanjiang put several metal platforms together and placed them in the corner of the secret room, allowing Han Mo to hide in first.

After Han Mo hid, he took a deep breath, picked up the spar on the pillar, and then hid under the platform as quickly as possible.Because of the lack of the effect of the gravity field, the rocks that were originally suspended in the sky fell down one after another, roaring continuously for a while, the ground trembled intermittently, and the entire laboratory shook violently, as if it might collapse at any time.Fortunately, the quality of the secret room was indeed hard enough. When the movement completely disappeared and the dust gradually settled, Han Mo and Shui Hanjiang carefully drilled out from under the deformed metal platform.

Looking up, a huge rock lay across the upper hole, leaving a gap just enough for a person to pass through. Smaller stones fell into the secret room, piled up like a small rockery, although still It doesn't fully touch the ceiling, but the distance is not very far. You only need to stand on the top to grab the edge of the hole.

"It shouldn't be a problem. I'll go up and have a look first." Shui Hanjiang climbed up carefully. The stone pile was a little shaky, but it didn't collapse. Han Mo standing below was a little frightened.

When he stood firmly on the top of the stone pile, Han Mo finally breathed a sigh of relief.Shui Hanjiang was taller. Standing on the top of the stone pile, half of his body was already able to stick out of the cave. Han Mo quickly reminded him to be careful of monsters outside.He was holding that strange spar in his hand, which glowed with a slight blue light. He saw that the blue beam of light outside had completely disappeared, and the stones falling from the sky had destroyed all the surrounding buildings, and the monsters had disappeared.

Climbing out of the cave, Shui Hanjiang carefully inspected the surroundings, except for a piece of ruins, there was nothing unusual, and immediately shouted to Han Mo in the secret room: "There should be no danger outside, you come up!"

Han Mo in the secret room responded, and began to climb up cautiously, but his movements were obviously not as steady as Shui Hanjiang's, and the rock pile swayed several times, showing a tendency to collapse.He tried his best to climb up to the top of the stone pile. The moment Shui Hanjiang grabbed his hands, the stone pile under his feet collapsed. His feet were hanging in the air, which made him flustered. Shui Hanjiang held him tightly with both hands, He pulled it out.

"I'm scared to death!" Finally getting out of trouble, Han Mo fell on his back to the ground, still terrified.

"Did you feel those things around?"

Han Mo felt calmly, the whole ruins were extremely quiet, and there was no danger.He looked at Shui Hanjiang and said, "It seems that we didn't find those monsters, maybe they were scared away."

It would be best not to encounter monsters, both of them breathed a sigh of relief, Shui Hanjiang looked around, he didn't know if the ruins were safe or not, so he decided to go back and join everyone, and shared the situation here with everyone Make it clear.Han Mo stood up and patted the dust on his body. After so many things, there is no clean place on his body. Although the hand that was scratched by the stone before, the wound no longer bleeds, but there is still a burning pain. , needs to be disinfected immediately.

Coming out of the ruins, walking all the way to the direction of the light in the distance, those monsters didn't know where they went at this moment, and none of them disappeared.After walking for about ten minutes, the two finally returned to the green area. The people who were waiting anxiously greeted them immediately and asked many questions with concern.

"Wait, take out the medicine box first, and disinfect Xiao Mo's wound!" Under the bright light, Shui Hanjiang saw that the wound on Han Mo's hand had swelled up, and if he didn't deal with it, something might really happen.

Shen Mingxi quickly took out the small medicine box from his backpack, opened it, and wiped Han Mo's wound with alcohol.

Han Mo was treating the wound here, and Shen Mingxi began to answer everyone's questions: "We are fine, we were attacked by those monsters before, but some things happened and we finally survived... The blue light before was a ruins of ruins, but preservation It was not perfect, most of the buildings were collapsed, and the layout was very similar to the previous one. It seemed to be the base camp of monsters, but after we brought out this spar from there, those monsters disappeared , the blue light also disappeared.”

In Shui Hanjiang's hand, he was holding a transparent spar of the same size as an unpolished crystal. The transparent spar emitted a faint blue light, which was very strange.

The researchers took the spar and looked at it carefully, but they couldn't get any results. It seemed to be just a very ordinary crystal.

"Are there any other discoveries besides these?" Luo Zhan asked.

Shui Hanjiang nodded and continued: "This spar is very unusual. When we found it, a weightless field was generated within a range of about 20 meters around it."

"Gravity field! How is it possible!" Luo Zhan exclaimed. This technology is a cutting-edge technology for the country, and it needs a lot of material resources and manpower to realize it. Now I tell him that it can be completed with a single spar, but this is what makes it happen. He couldn't believe it.

"However, I guess some equipment is still needed to activate the weightless field. This spar may be just a medium, because the weightless field disappears after we remove the spar, but we do not lose weight because of the existence of the spar. Found the spar The place is a laboratory-like secret room, which contains many instruments and equipment, but we don’t know anything about them, but because of the urgent time, we will come back and talk to you about the situation.”

Several scientific researchers looked at each other, and they were surprised just by the new ruins in front of them, and the function of the spar was even more jaw-dropping. It seemed that they didn't care about any danger in an instant, and they were full of enthusiasm for the new ruins. Very yearning.

A scientific researcher suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked, "Can we...can go there?"

Han Mo, who had already bandaged his wound, came over, looked at Shui Hanjiang, and said, "It should be possible. We guess that those monsters seem to be very afraid of this spar. For us, it is safer to have the spar in our hands, but I don’t know if this guess is true, let’s see if you dare to take a gamble!”

"Anyway, you're dead if you're stuck here, so why not just gamble! Maybe you can find something!" Gu Changxi said deeply.

No one objected, sitting in the boundless darkness waiting to die is the scariest thing!

Everyone packed their luggage, and while paying full attention to the surrounding situation, they stepped out of the green area carefully.Han Mo was a little puzzled, those monsters seemed to have really disappeared, and even though they were getting farther and farther away from the safe green field, they still didn't feel any danger.

Losing the blue light, the ruins of the ruins became dark, and everyone could only move forward slowly. When the tall city wall appeared in front of their eyes, all the scientific researchers were shocked, and their faces were filled with unconcealable expressions. Excited, after more than ten years since the discovery of the first relic, they finally explored the second relic in the underground space!

The ten executors were equally astonished. Although this place had long been in ruins, one could imagine the grandeur of the city back then from the scale of the ruins.

Entering the city through the dilapidated city gate, Han Mo and Shui Hanjiang did not relax their vigilance for a moment, but it was strange that there was only darkness in the place where the monsters were hiding, and it seemed that the monsters had really disappeared.Passing by the dilapidated palace, Han Mo and Shui Hanjiang led everyone back to the previous secret room. The altar had been smashed out of shape by the falling stones, and the huge stone blocking the entrance was still on top. A gap that allows a person to pass through.

"Under this altar is the secret room where we found the spar. These stones were suspended in the air under the action of the weightless force field before. After we took down the spar, they fell down." Han Mo pointed at the boulder The gap below said.

"Let's go down and have a look." Luo Zhan said to his team members, and all the researchers nodded excitedly.

How could Shen Mingxi, who likes to join in the fun, let go of this opportunity, and quickly raised his hand: "I, I, I, I want to go down too!"

Except for Xiang Xin and Jiang Xiaoxue, everyone else was also full of curiosity and wanted to go down together to find out what happened.Shui Hanjiang was silent for a while, and said: "Well, Xiaomo and I will stay outside. Xiaoxue has physical problems so don't go down. Xiang Xin, you can go down if you want to take a look. If you don't have any interest, stay and take care of it. Xiaoxue."

Everyone agreed, and then Han Mo said, "When I came up, the pile of rocks below had collapsed. Do you have any ropes or ladders?"

"We have a rope." Luo Zhan asked a team member to take out a special thick rope, tie one end to a firm place, and put the other end into the gap.

Shining a flashlight into the gap, Yan Wei scratched his head: "Fortunately, the bottom is not very high. The collapsed stone pile is about two meters away from the ground. I'll go down first..." At first he wanted to go down and have a look, but he His body was too strong, and he couldn't pass through the gap at all, so he could only watch others climb down the rope one by one with a bitter face.
