Han Lang and the others didn't walk too far. After passing through an arched cave, the area in front of them suddenly opened up.
It was a vast underground world. The thick yellow sand was filled with the skeletons of giant beasts.
None of the skeletons were complete. The skeletons of these giant beasts were dismembered and tossed around randomly.
Although the skeletons weren't complete, it wasn't hard to tell from the size of these skeletons that they were giant beasts when they were alive. One of their ribs was over a thousand meters long.
Blue Maple furrowed his brow and said, "These are darkness beasts."
Han Lang was stunned and asked in surprise, "Why do you say so?"
Blue Maple walked closer to one of the skeletons and pointed at the two arm bones. "The prehistoric civilization pursued the limit. Darkness beasts are the best evidence of that. The so-called darkness beasts are actually the combination of the genes of many wild beasts, or even star beasts, to achieve the most powerful effect.
"Therefore, the bones of darkness beasts are usually asymmetrical. Take these two arm bones for example. One is as sharp as a blade, while the other is huge and hard.
"The reason why it's like this is because the prehistoric humans installed two arms with different functions on the darkness beasts. This arm is used to grab, while this sharp arm is used to pierce through the darkness beasts after grabbing them."
Blue Maple even demonstrated as he spoke. He grabbed a rock with his right hand and sliced it with his left hand.
"Do you understand now? The prehistoric civilization didn't want symmetry, but functionality. You saw darkness beasts with two or even three heads just now. Does such darkness beasts conform to common sense? "
"Of course not!"
"But why did the prehistoric civilization design it this way? If darkness beasts had two or three heads, they would be able to take care of their front, back, left, and right. If they continued to add detection functions similar to those of bats to their eyes, they would become a very powerful scouting-type darkness beast. "
Han Lang nodded slightly. "According to what you're saying, these giant beasts are also a type of darkness beast. But why are they underground? Why didn't we see them when we were on the surface? "
Blue Maple said, "Perhaps it's because genetic modification is too difficult, and the prehistoric civilization failed, so they abandoned the skeletons of the giant darkness beasts here."
Han Lang smiled and said, "Blue Maple, you know a lot. No wonder you have so many ideals. You know everything."
Lance said, "This guy is the young master of the Azure Sky River Family after all. There are at least eight hundred full-time teachers in his family. I'm not surprised that lue Maple knows so much."
Blue Maple didn't comment. He shrugged his shoulders and looked at the boundless underground sand dunes. He said in a heavy voice, "I have a bad feeling that we might have unintentionally approached the gene factory."
Whoosh ~
Immediately, Han Lang and Lance's expressions changed drastically.
Gene factories could be found in every ruin. They were places used to synthesize darkness beasts. The reason why it was so difficult for humans to excavate the ruins was because of the existence of these gene factories.
On the other hand, because the gene factory was a place that produced darkness beasts, it was filled with danger. No one knew what kind of monsters were guarding the place.
Lance was very serious as he asked, "Blue Maple, do you really think so?"
Blue Maple nodded. He looked around at the endless skeletons of darkness beasts and said, "If I'm not wrong, these skeletons were abandoned here after the genetic experiments failed. Therefore, we shouldn't be too far from the gene factory."
"Let's start from the beginning. Han Lang's extreme actions caused the Suspended Tower Union to fall from the sky and smash open the ground. We were attacked by darkness beasts and jumped into the abyss. We reached a place no one had ever reached before and encountered many strange phenomena. Based on this, we can deduce that we are not far from the gene factory."
"I've read a lot of information about the ruins. Every high-level ruin has a gene factory. Normally, these gene factories are hidden very deep. We are at least a thousand kilometers below the ruins. That's deep enough."
Lance and Han Lang nodded. Han Lang said, "Looks like we have to be more careful from now on. Lance, we'll follow the old rules. You will lead the way, but you have to leave a location for me. If there's any danger, lue Maple and I will do our best to support you."
"After all, we are already in this strange and strange underground. If we want to leave, we can only continue forward."
Lance nodded heavily and said seriously, "Understood. Leave it to me."
Ever since they accidentally discovered that they were close to the core secret of A19 ruin, Han Lang and the other two became much more cautious. Occasionally, when they talked, they seemed a little depressed.
It took them three days to walk out of the underground desert that abandoned the skeletons of darkness beasts. Han Lang and the others arrived at a rock wall that looked like a beehive.
There were countless caves on the black rock wall. They were all connected to each other like an endless maze.
.....
The pool where Han Lang and the others landed three days ago.
A strange person appeared out of nowhere. His whole body was wrapped tightly in linen. Only two black eyes could be seen. He looked like an ascetic monk.
He walked into the water and saw the corpses of the strange fish. They were killed by Han Lang and the others three days ago.
The ascetic monk shook his head slightly and left the pool. He came to the graveyard of the warriors of the prehistoric civilization.
The graveyard had been turned upside down by Han Lang and the others. The corpses of the warriors were exposed in the air. Their skulls were all crushed and the solidified crystals were taken out. Even the weapons that were inserted into the graves as tombstones were gone.
"Thieves! Despicable thieves! "
The ascetic monk was so angry that his whole body was trembling. He shouted in a hoarse voice.
He suddenly raised his head. His black eyes stared at the ceiling of the rock wall. He let out a sharp and mournful cry.
Ao ~ ~ ~
Ao ~ ~ ~
This sound did not sound like it came from a human. It was more like the howl of a devil from hell!
Two hours had passed, and the sound of hurried footsteps approached in the darkness.
It was a group of darkness beasts. A group of powerful and terrifying darkness beasts!
They were like the velociraptors of dinosaurs. However, they were much more ferocious. Their bodies were covered in shells that were as hard as pangolins. Their two front claws were as sharp as large eagle claws. The legs that supported their bodies were thick and powerful. Their mouths split open, revealing sharp teeth that looked like steel saws.
Whoosh ~
A few thousand velociraptors came to the side of the ascetic monk. They raised their heads, their black eyes emitting a cold light. It was like an army of darkness beasts.
Pa ~
The ascetic monk jumped up and stood on the back of the strongest velociraptor. He raised his head again and let out an ear-piercing cry.
Rumble ~
The army of velociraptors charged forward!
They passed through the arched dome and came to the desert where the giant darkness beast corpses had been discarded.
Even more velociraptors gathered. In a short period of time, there were more than ten thousand of them!
Ao ao ao ~ ~
The ascetic monk continued to let out unpleasant and ear-piercing cries. This army of darkness roared as they traversed the desert. They were very fast. In a few hours, they would catch up to Han Lang and the others.
"There's the smell of darkness?"
"Could it be that the Heavenly King is here as well?"
"But why would the Heavenly King be with a human?"
The ascetic monk shook his head and muttered to himself.
Pa ~
He slapped his mount, the strongest velociraptor, hard on the head. The monster howled in pain.
"This is very strange. Give chase at full speed!" The ascetic monk waved his hand and ordered.
His black hand was as thin as a tree vine and as sharp as a scimitar.
Without a doubt, he was not a human!
