Chapter 985: Let go and do it
Around the oval hole, there was some moist soil that looked like it had just been turned out.
And some warm blood is still stained with this soil.
Mixed with bloody stench, it kept coming out from the depths of the cave. Just by smelling this smell, it made people feel unconsciously a feeling of resistance in their hearts.
Looking around, there are many pits similar to these.
Although we all carry strong light flashlights, we have no way of knowing what is going on below, as we are wandering around the cave.
"Ah--" Just as I had the idea of going down and finding out, a faint howling suddenly came from the cave.
It sounds like the person who makes this scream is suffering.
"Captain, it's time for us to leave!"
"I can't save them!"
The ten people behind me, after hearing this sound, were so scared that their legs were almost weak. After taking a few steps back in fear, they raised their guns tremblingly.
"Follow me down."
I glanced at them coldly and said indifferently.
Those scorpions captured the living people, and there must be some reason for this underground without seeing the light of day. Maybe the fire monkey was also taken under the scorpion.
It is very likely that he is still alive, and no matter what, I will go down and take a look.
"What?"
"Are you crazy?
You are going to die, don't bring us with you!"
Several of them yelled at me with a irritable temper, "It is likely that the scorpion's nest is the one below. What can we do with just a few of us?"
"If you come here, you will obey my command and disobey your orders, I have the right to execute you on the spot."
I smiled slightly and narrowed my eyes. Although it was really reckless to take people down, as the leader of more than a thousand people, I just need to find a reason to get over it.
But as team members, they are different. They violate my orders. Even if I don’t do anything to them, other company personnel will not let them go.
Their fate will be death.
Since I have gained my current identity and status after lurking into the company, I must make good use of it.
After I reminded me, the faces of several team members became a little ugly.
However, it is quite useful. None of them is the angry look he had just now.
But at this moment, I suddenly heard rustling footsteps behind me. It was humans, and there were still a lot of them, at least nearly fifty people.
"I advise you not to do this."
Two minutes later, I met the person in charge and a group of armed personnel who were rushing here.
After he gasped for two breaths, his terrified eyes fell on the cave on the ground, and said while trembling, "You may very likely anger those scorpions and cause us to be wiped out. I will never allow you to do this, even if you kill me."
He rushed to me in a hurry, so tired that he couldn't breathe, but the idea of stopping me was very determined.
After his explanation, I also learned about the situation of these caves.
When the mining team opened up this sinkhole, they found many holes dug by scorpions.
At first, in order to prevent more shoes from emerging from the ground, they filled the holes with explosives, but the effect was minimal.
Giant scorpions have a strong ability to dig holes. No matter how many holes they fill, more holes will pop up soon.
The superior suspected that there was a giant scorpion's nest at the bottom.
At present, most of these holes are distributed in the bottom edge area of the sinkhole. Every other day, large numbers of giant scorpions will emerge from the ground.
"So, please stop your stupidity, if you anger them, more scorpions will emerge!"
"That's it..." I smiled as he looked scared, but I didn't expect that there were still things that people from the company could not do, "What if I don't answer?"
All you are responsible for is mining tasks and you have no right to interfere with my actions. If you get in the way, I will throw you in first."
"You, idiot! You will kill us!"
The person in charge was scared, but when he thought about the possible situation in the future, he still wanted to stop me so firmly.
I noticed that as soon as he finished speaking, he immediately pressed the communicator on his arm.
Soon, I saw the screen lit up on his arm, and the commander's face was displayed on the screen. Although the picture was not very clear, it could still be vaguely distinguished.
The person in charge kept talking and quickly reported the situation here one by one.
Do you want to use your boss’s authority to suppress me?
I suddenly realized that this guy was still a little brainy, but what he thought was still a bit too simple.
A few minutes later, the communicator on my arm also lit up.
"I heard that you want to go to the giant scorpion's cave with the team members?"
"Yes."
Faced with the commander's plain questioning, I nodded calmly, "My mission is to protect and mine the task. Since I now know that this is the cave of the giant scorpion, I want to go down and try to find a way to stop them from coming out, so that the problem can be fundamentally solved."
Hearing this, the commander nodded and the screen returned to darkness again.
"Very good, I admire you very much, let it go."
I had expected him to say this long ago. Recently, there were only ten people I came here to bring, and I only had eleven people.
Only eleven of us arrived at the Cancer Cave, even if we failed the mission, we were all killed, and the loss was not great for them.
At worst, just change to another person as the team leader.
But as long as you succeed, the benefits will be great.
Everyone present heard what the commander said and received his permission. Even if these people resisted in their hearts, they would definitely obey on the surface.
"Fake Squid!"
The head of the mining team was so angry that he jumped, but there was no way to stop me. He could only watch me take people away.
Because the scorpions are huge, they dug out holes to let us stand and walk in.
And the better thing is that the inclination of the hole is not very high, and it can be considered flat. Of course, in addition to the thin oxygen here and the stench everywhere, what makes people even more scary are the giant scorpions.
After going down, more than ten meters, a fork in front of us appeared.
There are three forks in total, and the directions are different. When the flashlight shines over, it can only reach the first bend in the fork. I have no idea where these three forks lead.
However, the blood left on the ground pointed us in the direction.
