Chapter 575 Exploring Kit City (Part 1)
Sofia wiped the hot sweat on her neck. For a Siberian girl who has lived in the snow and ice since she was a child, the temperature at the landing site was really unbearable. She had never felt such a temperature before. She only felt that her skin was repeatedly stimulated by hundreds of needles and became red and tingling. Compared to Sofia's embarrassment, Laura just took off her mountaineering suit and wore a leather jacket she put on again.
Jonah was still making logistics exploration preparations, but he didn't keep up for the time being.
"You'd better prepare some thick clothes. Although that wouldn't help with the fight, it would be too stupid to freeze here." As the culprit of the abuse of the ground-boring bomb, Catherine not only did not receive punishment from the Immortal City, but was rewarded by Tita. The core concept of the sisters was to do everything in order to complete the task. Just an avalanche could not scare them at all. Catherine happily pressed the button on the assault transport boat, and with the opening of the gate, dry and scorching air came to her face. She jumped off the transport boat and used steel high heels to crush a piece of charred bone stuck to the stone bricks with unknown objects. Some melted black iron tools with no shape and purpose were scattered at the feet of the landing personnel, and almost sprained Sophia's ankle.
What awaited them here was a big golden red bird. It looked at the girls off the transport boat with a proud look. It was not until Catherine saluted it, and the proud immortal bird lowered its head and greeted Catherine, ignoring the surprised gaze of the other two girls. This is why the landing site was dry. Phoenix burned all the dead people who came to stop it to ashes, evaporating every trace of water. Phoenix was the bottom line and fuse of this mission, and it would ensure that those girls could complete the task in any case.
If it weren't for the complete melting of all ice and snow that could lead to a complete ecological disaster, Phoenix would be very happy to complete this task.
However, outside the landing point, the lost city used to praise the gods in the past was only the decayed dead, and the decay and melted snow water soaked every building here. The stone bricks placed here a thousand years ago were emitting a biting cold all the time. To this day, people entering the Lost City can still see the exquisite reliefs and urban layout of Kit, as well as the special crosses that can be seen at any time. It is completely different from the dense medieval urban planning that was popular at that time, full of artistic beauty from the ancient Greek period. The whole city is like a large temple. Sculptures, murals and columns are spread throughout the city. It can be seen how grand Jacob’s original plan was. He wanted to make this place a land of gods on earth.
But now there are only dead people here.
Due to Jacob's wrong operations, the [Sacred Source] that maintained his life was controlled by those soldiers who had resurrected him.
More than a thousand years later, only the dead in iron armor were still wandering around the city. The collision sound of the armor pieces was forever engraved into the cracks of the stone bricks of the Lost City, and echoed between the burned bones and blood. After walking out of the landing site, the atmosphere of the Lost City immediately became gloomy and terrifying. Perhaps it was the resonance caused by the sound of the engine of the assault transport boat, and the huge ice stalagmites fell from the sky and smashed constantly, making people's feet numb. Faced with such a scene, Catherine began to regret not carrying a heavy flamethrower - if she used the newly developed chemical fuel flamethrower and a few rockets, she was confident that she could clear all obstacles by herself, without waiting for the slow engineering team to carry out safe construction and reinforcement.
She was whimsical about driving an assault transport boat to shoot down stalagmites, but was soon stopped by the more steady artificial man.
Just as Catherine was waiting for the follow-up engineering team to enter while dazing and fantasizing about being commended by the monarch, Sophia couldn't help but shivered. She had heard the story of Kit when she was a child, but the stories Jacob told never mentioned the current situation of Kit. At that time, the young Sophia was not interested in delving into it, because for her at that time, there was nothing more important than playing mud and playing snowball fights. However, under Jacob's insistence, Sophia did not become an ignorant and foolish person with her prenatal education level. She could speak Greek and was very proficient, and could understand the stone tablets that Laura could not understand.
She also knows math, which is entirely the result of Jacob's forced education. The Sweeping Team took Laura Crawford with her with the Immortal City Interior Office. Although Catherine didn't like this trick-and-treat archaeologist, she still carried out the seal order.
That's why Laura and Sophia joined the team instead of being driven away by Catherine.
"I will try to avoid bombarding there with artillery, but only if you obey the command and don't run around. I don't know why the monarch likes you so much, but you must obey me here." Catherine pointed to the fortress gate of Kitt City in the distance. In order to allow material transport vehicles to pass, Catherine had to order the engineering team to clean up the landslide facilities and mountain rocks. Even though the houses that were smashed by the rocks had little archaeological value, this still aroused Laura's dissatisfaction, until Catherine took out her report on archaeological operations in Japan and Syria.
After all, Lara Crawford, who fell to the ground, had nothing to say. Sophia did not object, because the scene here was very different from the Lost City she heard of when she was a child, and it was not as she imagined.
"We will completely clean up the undead soldiers before the monarch arrives," said Catherine.
"Will he come?" Laura raised her eyebrows in surprise. She had long been used to the names of these girls wearing high-tech power armor to Salomon, but she was still surprised that Salomon would come. She originally thought she would not see him for the time being, because judging from his attitude of leaving at that time, it seemed that she was going to hand over all the work here to the combat team and engineering team.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "The monarch is very concerned about that thing." Catherine doesn't mind revealing more information to Laura before the operation begins. Sophia pretends to be careless and also pricks up her ears and listens carefully. "The monarch believes that the items he entrusted to the Immortal Prophet to keep will be helpful to the current situation of the Immortal City." Catherine said, "This is a very logical judgment, and everything is in the monarch's plan."
Laura Claude nodded. She never argued with the girls about Salomon's problems because they could not tolerate any doubts about him.
A few red flashes flew up from behind the assault transport boat, and rushed towards the blue-black Kit City with a buzzing sound and vertically downward. This is an important device for the drone with a signal repeater to form a huge communication network to allow combat squads and engineering squads to maintain communication with the outside world. At the same time, these devices can also scan the internal structure of Kit City, jointly draw a three-dimensional map of Kit City, and touch every corner clearly.
This is a victory of high technology. At least Laura felt relieved when she saw the continuous drone turning on LED lights into the darkness. In her opinion, this is the importance of cultural relics and history displayed by Salomon. She knew that this was quite rare for Salomon, and it was difficult for a person who lived among cultural relics on weekdays to understand the cultural value behind the cultural relics. She suddenly felt strongly jealous of Salomon's life, but she clearly remembered the large number of treasures placed in the apartment of Salomon's adoptive mother. If archaeologists saw those things, they might have made extremely important research on the entire history of ancient Greece and Roman.
As for the book "The Journey of Heroes" written by the lady named Minerva, Laura subconsciously ignored it.
No one can change the fate of the book's unsalable sales. This is the power of magic.
