Chapter 51: Going Down the Pit
after one day.
"Hey! Look, look... the hero has opened his eyes! He's awake!"
"Wow! He is so handsome! I love him so much."
"So this is what real people look like! Is this S-class?"
"..."
Xie Qiuling slowly opened her eyes, and what she saw was the spacious ward and a bunch of men and women crowding to visit him.
Have you been put on display in a museum?
Xie Qiuling's mind was a little confused. He rubbed his aching head and sat up on the hospital bed. The area around him was blocked by a fence. The crowd outside the fence to visit him instantly became excited.
At that time, a person emerged from the crowd, that was Polis.
Polis was holding a crossbody bag stuffed with money and a sign that read: "Visit for one hundred meters, take photos for five hundred meters. No indecent gestures to patients when taking photos. Visit
Please do not climb over the railing when doing so. Violators will be fined.”
Xie Qiuling was dumbfounded by Polis's attitude, which was somewhat similar to that of a small vendor at a tourist attraction. He climbed over the fence and walked up to Xie Qiuling with a smile.
"You finally woke up, brother Xie."
"What happened?" Xie Qiuling looked around with confusion and asked Polis.
"No, you fell into a coma after assisting Missile Zero to kill Quetzalcoatl. During these four days, your heroic deeds of assisting in killing Quetzalcoatl spread throughout the Three Swords Guild."
Polis scratched his head.
"Anyway, you were fainted when you fainted, and you are still a hero now. I was thinking of making some extra money, so I held an event to visit and take photos with you. I didn't expect that your reputation would spread far and wide, and the event would be very popular, and I would make a lot of money.
Full."
"Damn! There are so many fucking amazing ways to make money these days," Xie Qiuling was a little angry, "I've become your fucking money-making tool."
"Hey, don't accuse me wrongly. I'm planning for you and me to split 30/70. You can get 70% of the income I transfer while you're in a coma. I work hard every day to take photos of you and the tourists. I just
I only get 30%."
With that said, Polis took out his mobile phone, opened the transfer record and handed it to Qiu Qiuling.
"Look, all the money I transferred to you was transferred to your bank card in the Three Swords Association through Yelan."
Polis thought that Xie Qiuling would feel relieved after watching it, but Xie Qiuling was still a little angry.
"Get these people out, this is a ward, I want to be quiet."
"Okay." Polis nodded, waved to the group of visitors, and drove them out of the ward one by one. Then Polis also left the ward, leaving a group of people waiting outside the ward.
The people queuing up to visit also dispersed, and then they came back.
Xie Qiuling sat on the hospital bed. The ward finally became quiet at this time. He held his forehead and thought about something.
Did he help kill Quetzalcoatl? Was it the white-haired boy who did it? What on earth was going on...
Xie Qiuling kept thinking, but had no clue.
He looked at Polis, who had just returned from dispersing the visitors, and asked, "Where are Yelan and Yang Nana?"
"They have all been assigned by the Three Swordsmen to do crater exploration work. Now it's just you and me."
"Take me out, I want to go out and have a look."
…
Under a huge sculpture under construction outside the crater, Xie Qiuling and Polis looked up at the statue.
The statue is made of granite. Although it has not yet been completed, it can be seen that it is sixteen meters high. The sculpture is of a young man holding a descendant arrow and stepping on a miniature version of Quetzalcoatl. It looks extremely
Mighty and domineering, this sculptured young man Xie Qiuling can be recognized at a glance because it is her.
"This is……"
"The Three Swordsmen Association made a sculpture to commemorate the hero - 'Xie Qiuling', who assisted the Zero Missile in hunting Quetzalcoatl. The name of the sculpture is 'The Hero and the Evil Snake'."
"Damn, this carving is too exaggerated, isn't it? You make me so tall and Quetzalcoatl so small?"
"Sculptures are always exaggerated. Doesn't this also show your bravery?"
"I'm brave ass."
Xie Qiuling said with some self-deprecation. At this moment, a panting messenger ran to Xie Qiuling and Boris, and said breathlessly: "Jie... Jie Yingxiong, I... I can find it."
Excuse me... If you weren't in the ward, I would be exhausted..."
Xie Qiuling and Polis looked at each other in confusion. Xie Qiuling quickly took out a bottle of water and handed it over. The messenger thanked him for the water and then drank it down. Apparently he was very thirsty.
"What do you want from me?" Xie Qiuling looked at the messenger and asked after he was out of breath.
"The senior management of the Three Swords Association has come down to inform. Because you gave the senior management a letter of request before, the senior management has arranged for you to immediately participate in a mission into the crater. You, Yan Wushuang, Jack, and Page are now urgently summoned to carry out the mission."
The messenger said, pointing to a scientific research station built on the edge of the crater not far away.
"Gather there."
Xie Qiuling nodded, said goodbye to Polis, and ran towards the scientific research station. At this moment, he suddenly felt an ominous feeling, but he didn't care.
At the scientific research station, Yan Wushuang, Jack and Page have all arrived, and the staff are preparing them to wear equipment for going down into the crater. There are rock climbing ropes, ice axes, flares, bright flashlights and a series of professional equipment. These equipment can greatly
Increases their survival rate inside the crater.
At this time, Xie Qiuling also reported that as soon as he entered the scientific research station, a group of staff came forward with equipment to put it on for Xie Qiuling. Even if the equipment was extremely lightweight, it still weighed 20 kilograms. Such heavy equipment was on his body.
, which made Xie Qiuling, who had just woken up from a coma, a little uncomfortable.
After putting on their equipment, Xie Qiuling was surprised that they did not go down directly to the crater, but entered a small weapons depot at the scientific research station to select weapons.
"No, isn't it just the next crater? Do you need weapons? Do you need them?" Xie Qiuling was the most familiar with Page among the three people traveling with her, so she asked him.
"It's useful. There is great danger under this crater. We need to go deep into the crater this time, so the risk factor is even greater," Page said while choosing weapons. "Let's put it this way, we go into the crater to explore.
There are currently a hundred people, but only more than seventy people have successfully come up. The others are either missing or brought up by their teammates, but they were already corpses when they were brought up."
"Is there a monster down here? Why are there still people dead?" Xie Qiuling asked in surprise.
"Well, according to some people who successfully came up, they encountered some terrible things down there. These things had twisted faces and were extremely aggressive. Most of their casualties were almost caused by these things." Page
After careful selection, two thu were selected

50 pistol, stuffed it into the holster on his waist, and took a bunch of magazines and inserted them into his tactical vest and backpack.
"You...just use this one. You haven't touched a gun much. This gun is more suitable for you." As he said that, Page took out an improved version of the Victor assault gun from the side and handed it to Xie Qiuling.
