The ancient labyrinth city, as the name suggested, was a city with a maze as its main layout.
The main buildings were either square or rectangular walls. It was unknown why the walls had very few doors and windows, but the area wasn't big either.
Something worth mentioning was that the materials used to build the walls included an unknown hard metal. This was why the buildings in the labyrinth city could stand for so long in the Darkness Continent without collapsing.
The walls in the outer perimeter were connected together, and their height and volume were similar. This was a high wall used to fend off the dangerous creatures in the Darkness Continent.
Therefore, people who came to the outer perimeter of the city would only treat the buildings before them as high walls. In fact, even if they were walls, they were still houses in essence.
After passing through this high wall house, other than the fact that the buildings in the city had the same appearance, there was a huge difference in height and area.
The tallest building and the shortest building had a height difference of more than three times, and the largest building and the smallest building also had a numerical difference of three times.
As long as one looked down at the labyrinth city from the air, they would discover that there were such differences everywhere.
Humans didn't even have the qualifications to be research experts or archaeologists in this majestic city built by the ancient humans.
It was even an extremely difficult task to take away the vanilla right under the nose of the plant weapon, gold and silver ingot.
Therefore, humans knew nothing about the ancient labyrinth city.
How did the ancient humans build such a majestic city?
What was the original intention of the ancient humans?
Why did the ancient humans arrange the buildings in a disorderly and scattered manner?
There were many unsolved mysteries.
However, before these unsolved mysteries, the vanilla that could cure all diseases was more important.
As one of the many failed explorations by humans, the Ferrying Bureau's team was determined to get it.
There was no such thing as' succeed or die trying '. There was only the belief that they had to succeed!
Giles, who was wearing a tight-fitting black battle suit, turned around and looked toward the team. He said in a deep voice, "The backup team will set up a basic defense line here. The main battle team will check their equipment and enter the ancient city in ten minutes."
"Yes!"
A tense atmosphere enveloped the team. Everyone's nerves were stretched taut.
The plant weapon, gold and silver ingot, was an unknown metal sphere that could replace the target's head. If they wanted to get the vanilla near the center of the labyrinth city, they would have to deal with the gold and silver ingot first.
It wasn't to avoid it but to deal with it!
This was because, according to the information they had, there were a lot of gold and silver ingots in the city.
If a scale was set up for numbers, then the number of chimera ants that once wreaked havoc in the six continents would be ranked B, while the number of gold and silver ingots guarding the ancient maze city would be ranked C.
Considering the reproductive ability of chimera ants, the number of gold and silver ingots was only one level lower.
On top of this basic information, the most troublesome thing was that the gold and silver ingots, which were both plant attributes, would be like evil dragons guarding treasures, constantly guarding the vanilla.
Therefore, if he wanted to successfully obtain the vanilla, he could only deal with it head-on. Any tricks would be useless.
Ten minutes later, the 500-man team led by Giles entered the maze city. Every combatant was fully armed, and they were equipped with five different types of firearms.
If it weren't for the fact that telekinesis users were stronger than ordinary people in all aspects, even the most elite special forces wouldn't be able to last more than an hour with such heavy equipment, let alone explore.
This group of 500 people was the most luxurious lineup in the history of human voyaging.
"Give me 120% of your attention!"
As the strongest combat power in the team, Giles walked at the very front without hesitation.
He didn't carry all kinds of functional equipment like the soldiers, only a strange-looking metal stick.
The metal stick was very thick, and it would be difficult to grasp it without a big hand as big as a cattail leaf. Moreover, the end of the metal stick was an oval ball with many holes on it.
Jim Carrey followed closely beside Giles, and the five bodyguards who had been protecting him along the way were also there.
The buildings inside the maze city were very densely distributed, which was why it formed the layout of a maze.
When people walked through it, it was possible that a wall would appear in front of them as they walked, and then there would be walkways on the left and right sides that only four or five people could pass through.
This kind of "gap" left behind by the dense arrangement of buildings was the main reason for the layout of the maze.
If one were to put themselves in the shoes of ancient humans, no matter how one thought about it, they wouldn't be able to figure out the motive of ancient humans for such a layout.
Could it be that at the very beginning, ancient humans used the method of "drawing a circle to form a prison" to build a house with a high wall at the outermost periphery?
After that, the ancient humans didn't expect the population to grow stronger and stronger, so they built more and more houses later on. The source of materials wasn't endless, so there were buildings of different heights and areas?
Jim Carrey shook his head slightly to get rid of the useless information in his head, and his eyes fell on the surrounding environment.
The ground was overgrown with weeds, and gravel could be seen everywhere.
The pale yellow walls on the left and right sides of the passageway exuded an obvious metallic aura, and there were tough lines engraved on them that intersected with each other in dozens of different trajectories.
Every time they walked a certain distance, they could see half-closed doors and windows on the walls. Darkness surged through the gaps of the doors like smoke, and it was impossible to see what was inside.
Before passing through the half-closed doors, the team's level of defense was the highest.
"There are two types of plant weapons, gold and silver ingots. One is a parasitic wandering type, and the other is a type that continues to grow. The former uses prey as a carrier to achieve the effect of free movement, while the latter is a plant that stays in a fixed position and continues to grow.
"Parasitic wandering gold and silver ingots can appear in any corner of the ancient city. They might suddenly jump out of a half-closed door or jump down from a window above. Please be on your guard."
Jim Carrey kept reminding the members of the team. As a non-combatant in the team, he was the most knowledgeable about the maze city.
"Turn right, and then walk straight for about two hundred meters."
When they came to the corner, Jim Carrey identified the direction.
Giles then turned to the right and led the team forward.
The team walked less than a hundred meters when Giles and Jim Carrey, who were walking at the front, suddenly stopped. At the same time, Giles raised his right hand that was clenched into a fist.
The team members following closely behind all stopped and entered battle mode.
In front of Giles and Jim Carrey, there were still short weeds, but there were some traces of white powder left behind. It was very conspicuous on the green weeds.
"There should be parasitic gold and silver ingots nearby," Jim Carrey said in a low voice.
Giles nodded and looked back at the team members. "Get ready for battle."
Hearing Giles's words, every member had a serious expression.
Then, the team continued forward, but their speed clearly slowed down.
After walking the remaining hundred meters, they turned left, and what appeared before them was a passage about ten meters wide.
Then, the team stopped again.
A naked 'human' with a metal sphere above his head stood facing the Ferry Bureau team. He did not move or make a sound.
"It really is a parasitic gold and silver ingot, but this parasitic body is … a human!"
