"Why are you here?"
On the way, Chu Yunsheng looked back and saw Buterne with more than a dozen blood riders and Ba Yi chasing behind them.
When he left, he was in a hurry and wanted to settle this matter as soon as possible, so he didn't specifically inform them. He only asked Wen Luo to pass the message. Did he not make it clear? Or did something happen?
Chu Yunsheng's heart suddenly tightened. At this critical moment, he couldn't let anything happen. At least, he had to wait until he got the energy block. Otherwise, he would become a paralyzed person at any time.
"Buterne was worried, so she insisted on coming to see." Ba Yi opened his big windbreaker, squinted his eyes, and said.
"Worried?" Chu Yunsheng was surprised: "What's there to worry about?"
He glanced at Buterne. Recently, she had become a lot more haggard, and she didn't talk much. In addition to biting her lips and immersing herself in the magic array every day, she also practiced very hard according to the cultivation method given by Chu Yunsheng. Chu Yunsheng didn't know how to comfort her.
"I'm just afraid that there will be another giant, then it will be over." Since he couldn't count on Buterne to speak, Ba Yi said without hesitation.
His tone was very casual, but when he saw Buterne rushing over with the twelve blood riders and Ba Yi and the others, he still felt a little warm in his heart. Perhaps they were also thinking about themselves, but at least they regarded him as one of them. In today's chaotic world, it was also a gratifying thing to have a small group that stayed close to each other to keep warm. Especially Chu Yunsheng, he once told the guardian that it was not because he was afraid of death, but because he didn't want to be lonely.
"Okay, since you are here, help me guard the entrance of the cave. I have something for you to look after." Chu Yunsheng didn't talk nonsense. He came out in a hurry and forgot that the dark matter armor couldn't be brought into the cave. He had to inject a little fire elemental energy into the iron bar to suppress it.
"We are not going down?" Ba Yi asked curiously.
"There is dark energy in your bodies. If you go in, the turbulence in the cave can tear you apart. Otherwise, do you think I and the other five countries will wait for us to go in? That's the value of humans. "Chu Yunsheng sighed.
"So that's how it is. I was wondering why the little people would agree to so many conditions." Ba Yi suddenly nodded and said, "However, Buterne and Shona can't go in, I can go with you."
"You?" He didn't take Ba Yi's words seriously. After all, there was obvious dark energy in Ba Yi's body.
"You're usually busy training the vampires, so you know very little about us." Ba Yi said conceitedly, "I don't know what dark energy is. I only feel that this power can help us strengthen the degradation, but after the degradation, we don't need it anymore, and we can't feel it."
"Now that you mention it, it does seem to be the case. When we were practicing the formation, I thought you had used up all your energy." Chu Yunsheng sat up straight on the horse's back, looked at Coach Gru behind Ba Yi, and said, "Gru, you try it, I will take a look."
Hearing Chu Yunsheng's words, Gru immediately took off his shirt. His bones crackled, and he let out a low roar. His joints grew inch by inch, and his hair pierced through his skin. In a short while, he had degenerated into a "beast" that was nearly half the height of a human.
"After regressing, I really can't feel any Yuan Qi. How strange, could it be that I have regressed from the cultivation state to the original state? Who in the Sixth Era has the ability to do this? " Chu Yunsheng whispered for a moment and made a gesture, indicating that Gru could recover. It was too scary, and there were many ordinary people around.
"However, if you want to stay down there for a long time, only Gru and I can go down with you. The others can't hold on for long. Once they are forced to recover, it will be over." Ba Yi also said cautiously.
"It's too risky, forget it." Chu Yunsheng shook his head.
"We have forced them to go down, but they are still hiding up there. Aren't they also taking risks?" Ba Yi pointed to more than a dozen exploration team members and spat.
Chu Yunsheng took a look at Ba Yi. This person was very carefree, and he was willing to do anything, but sometimes he was too talkative. When he first met Little Jacob, he was also like this. He would definitely take responsibility for the things that he caused. Perhaps something had happened in his previous life, so he valued life far more than Chu Yunsheng, which was completely inconsistent with his rude image.
"Okay, if you want to come with me, I can't do anything about it." Chu Yunsheng glanced at Buterne, shook his head, raised the horsewhip, and stepped out.
It was also good for Ba Yi to come in. In case of danger, his strength would be suppressed by the energy turbulence, and he could rely on Ba Yi to help him.
The cave was more than 50 kilometers away from the China camp. Chu Yunsheng had seen it from a distance before, and today he stood at its entrance for the first time.
The surroundings of the jungle were in a mess. Many trees had been uprooted and disappeared. They were probably eaten by the giants. There were many bloodstains and broken bodies on the north side of the cave. Judging from the clothes and weapons left behind by the giants, they should be the Americans.
The entrance of the cave was very big, but compared with the giant's body, it was much smaller. Standing here, Chu Yunsheng could feel how shocked and scared the soldiers at the scene were when they saw the giant struggling to climb out of the abyss-like cave.
Therefore, not everyone wanted to come back here again. Even most of the people in the scientific expedition team were not willing to set foot here again. The fear and psychological shadow brought to everyone by the giant could not be erased. No one knew what other terrible things would be in the dark cave.
They were almost forced to come here. Chu Yunsheng was a ferocious person who could cut off the giant's head. Even if they had to bite the bullet, they still had to come here. Otherwise, if that orc named Ba Yi came to them from time to time, everyone would be scared.
The support crane was quickly set up under the operation of skilled workers, and the high-strength and high-toughness professional ropes were also put in place. Among the eleven exploration team members, a total of eight men and two women, seven old and four young, were busy checking the preparations in their backpacks and fastening the safety buckles.
Chu Yunsheng didn't understand these things, so he could only let others help him put them on. After a long time, they explained in detail to Chu Yunsheng the role of each pull, how to cooperate with each other when descending, if one of the team members slipped and fell, how to maintain enough tension distribution to hold the team members, and what to do if he slipped and fell, and so on.
When they were able to go down, it was already afternoon, and the sunlight was shining into the cave from a suitable angle, increasing visibility.
Both Ba Yi and Gelu had experience in exploration. As a rookie, Chu Yunsheng was arranged to go down the cave last. He basically did not have other tasks, so he didn't need to slide down like other people while looking for a suitable position on the soft and wet cave wall to nail the support point.
Even so, before he reached the bottom of the cave, he had already "slipped" seven or eight times. Every time, the rope would make a loud swishing sound, which was frightening to hear.
At this time, Chu Yunsheng remembered the advantage of having the insects. Because there were many curves in the cave, the situation was complicated, and there were often stones falling down, so there was no way to get into the helicopter. After the Americans crashed one, no one dared to try it again.
He really didn't know how the giant climbed out of the cave at that time!
After descending steadily for more than an hour, they finally reached the bottom of the cave. Chu Yunsheng didn't care about the danger during the journey, but when he reached the bottom of the cave, he found that it was a very spacious space. He couldn't see anything in the distance, but there were strange-shaped stalactites everywhere. Even without the help of the team members' lights, the corners around them were already emitting red, blue, and green fluorescent lights, making the whole cave look strange and dazzling.
"Mr. Chu, the radiation inside is very strong. According to the manual, you should check the anti-radiation suit again." The person who spoke was Tang Jiayi, who was in his forties and had good physical strength. He was the leader of the exploration team.
"That should be the path that the giant climbed out?" Chu Yunsheng took out the protective helmet from his backpack while pointing to the other side of the cave and said.
The stalactites there were all broken and fell to the ground. It looked like half of them had been crushed.
"It should be. No one saw what happened inside at that time. None of the American exploration team came up alive. Mr. Chu, I know that you are a very powerful person, but there is one thing that I don't know if I can say." Tang Jiayi hesitated for a moment and said.
"It's okay, you can say it." Chu Yunsheng put on the white protective suit and held the protective helmet in his hand.
"We have been down the cave for seven or eight times, so we know more about the dangers inside than the people outside. If Mr. Chu believes us, let us deal with all the problems that we encounter on the way. In fact, we have made several plans in private, and they are not much worse than the Americans, but they were all rejected by the higher-ups. They said that it would take too long, and the higher-ups couldn't wait any longer. So they decided to carry out the risky and destructive method of advancing, which was used by the Americans …" Tang Jiayi carefully said while looking at Chu Yunsheng's face.
He also had a lot of frustration in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it out loud. After today's incident, Chu Yunsheng would just leave. No one would dare to do anything to this supreme senior, but if these people said anything bad about him, they might not even be able to stand up tomorrow.
"I understand, you can do it. But I don't object to the destruction. What we lack now is time. You don't have to worry about it. As long as we ensure everyone's safety, it's okay if we destroy it." Chu Yunsheng nodded.
Tang Jiayi's meaning was very simple. There were only two points. First, the cave was very dangerous. They had been here seven or eight times, so they were more professional. Second, eleven lives were also very precious. He hoped that it wouldn't be another amateurish person who was commanding the experts.
Since Chu Yunsheng said so, Tang Jiayi didn't have anything else to say. After doing the last safety check for the other team members one by one, they each took the equipment and equipment that they were responsible for. After reiterating everyone's division of labor, they carefully entered the cave along the path that the giant sent out.
The cave was very big, and it could be passed through from other places. But since the giant had already walked out of the cave, naturally, there was no need to take the risk of taking other routes. This could minimize the risk.
Chu Yunsheng followed behind the team. He didn't have anything to be responsible for, so he just followed them. He didn't interrupt or give orders. He was born in the field of technology, so he didn't want others to do what he didn't want others to do to him. He also hated this kind of thing where an amateur gave orders to an expert. Although the considerations of the higher-ups might be from the perspective of the big picture, it might not be completely wrong.
Thanks to the giant, they didn't encounter too much danger along the way. Until they passed by an underground river, Chu Yunsheng was shocked. There were actually creatures in this river.
From the collapsed stalactite, the whole team held hands and walked on the 'bridge' with the help of ropes. They could clearly see a gigantic snake-like creature more than twenty meters long swimming in the underground river. It was as thick as the mouth of a barrel and had a black body. It swam quietly under their feet with the sound of water splashing.
"The creatures here rarely take the initiative to attack. They have their own biosphere and food targets. As long as we don't disturb them, they will usually be fine." The female team member who was responsible for "taking care" of Chu Yunsheng explained to Chu Yunsheng, who was holding the handle of the sword and ready to draw it out at any time.
Chu Yunsheng smiled and did not say anything. It was not that he was afraid, a "small snake" was nothing to him. It was just a habit of vigilance that he had developed over the years. Once he tensed up again, he would not underestimate any potential danger, and he would be ready to draw his sword at any time.
After crossing the underground river, this kind of underground plants became more abundant. Some were as tall as a human body, some were as small as lichens, but all of them were emitting a faint glow.
"Their bodies contain a large amount of special radiation leaked from the spaceship. Try not to touch them, some of them contain highly toxic." The female team member continued to explain to Chu Yunsheng.
Seeing that the other team members were carefully avoiding them, Chu Yunsheng was not interested in them, so he just followed their instructions. After walking for about half an hour, they finally passed through this strange plant area. They also encountered many strange small creatures and the footprints of giants.
In the end, they finally came to the end of the cave, under a huge metal wall.
It was called a metal wall because its color was different from the other soil in the cave. It was dark and ancient. On the steep cliff, there were rows of huge square bulging surfaces, neatly arranged, exuding a majestic pressure. But the strange thing was that it did not rust. The surface was covered with floating soil and wet water droplets. No one knew how long it had been here.
Just from the part of the cave that was exposed, it looked more like a mysterious palace buried underground. In front of it, the giants were just small dots, and Chu Yunsheng and the others were just like ants.
