In the command center, the military leader and the players were discussing where to re-enter the ruins around the projection. When they heard the door open, the conversation stopped abruptly. The relationship between the military and the Special Defense Department was much easier than before, but the responsible person
The main people here are the military, so when Jiang Qiao came in with Xu Huo, everyone in the room temporarily stopped working.
"Go about your business." Shangguan Jing, who had had conflicts with Xu Huo, was the person in charge of the military in this incident. When he saw Xu Huo again, he showed no grudge on his face. After letting his men continue working, he greeted Xu Huo.
Go sit in the next room.
Xu Huo followed Jiang Qiao and walked in together. Shangguan Jing had obviously gotten angry with the higher-ups, so he opened the detailed information compiled by the military without saying anything more.
"We have spent a lot of manpower and material resources to explore under the Zangxian Lake, but so far we have not gained anything more." Shangguan Jing said: "Many of our people have disappeared into the folding space and there has been no response so far. If it is convenient,
I would like to arrange for a few people to go into the water with you."
Xu Huo did not comment, but carefully observed the data first.
The first is the information of the first version.
When the energy fluctuations first occurred in Zangxian Lake, there were ancient civilization relics in the rock layer under the lake. The entire area was not small. It took the military three full months just to measure and explore.
The ruins not only include palaces symbolizing royal power, but also altars and special sacrificial venues dedicated to the gods of ancient civilizations. In addition, there are also tombs specially built for members of the royal family. In addition to the tombs, the military has also
Checked upon entering.
"Why don't you go into the tombs?" Xu Huo asked.
"The tombs are home to a group of aquatic creatures." Shangguan Jing opened a new document and threw some video data into the center of the room. "These are evolved fish. They are very aggressive and will release
A kind of interference sound wave can interfere with or even destroy our instruments and equipment. With their fast speed and strong attack power, it is not easy to get in. In addition, they have also evolved a certain degree of resistance to toxicity. Ordinary poisons have no effect.
If we use our strength to poison them all, it may spread to the entire lake, making it unsafe for players who go down."
"They only stay in the tombs?" Xu Huo asked again, "Are there similar evolved species in the folded space?"
"There is no one on the first floor." Shangguan Jing flipped the file and sped up the playback speed. "Currently, our people have only entered the first floor. Even those who came out alive don't know what happened inside."
Xu Huo saw the information about the wounded at the back, "Mutilated limbs? It doesn't look like he was attacked by a wild beast."
"It was indeed not an attack by a ferocious beast," Shangguan Jing said: "All the injured people did not know exactly what happened. They did not feel much pain. They just lost their limbs in an instant. There were traces of petrification in the wounds, and they did not even bleed."
"Petrified?" Xu Huo was slightly surprised, "This is not like a normal copy attack."
The dungeons he has entered so far tend to be more realistic. There are very few dungeons like the one that Yuan Yao entered that could absorb human fat, and the one that turned stones into living creatures like Yan Jiayu Da Mao. The only one that is slightly unusual is the one from the Hundred People Art Museum.
The Curator, as well as the mutated plants in the copy of the Goddess, have human thoughts. Generally speaking, they are still at the upper limit of his understanding. They can petrify the human body in a very short period of time. This has completely broken away from reality and entered the category of myth.
"In the mythological stories of many civilizations, there are legends about turning people to stone. The most famous one is probably Medusa. We have considered the possibility that evolution will lead to the birth of mythical characters, but the situation is not like it." Shangguan Jing
Said: "The opinion of the expert team is that they would rather believe that they have passed through the folded space for an instant and tens of thousands of years, than it is impossible for the myth to be truly resurrected."
After all, time evolution is not an absolute secret in the game. The first thing the top government officials in District 014 want to lock in are these absolutely rare resources, and they will not stop working on research. The power of time can quickly turn a person into dust, and the folding space may be used
It is not impossible to travel to a space that existed ten thousand years ago.
Xu Huo was surprised by his frankness, "Can we continue the investigation work under this situation?"
"If you don't know what you have at home, if someone else gets it and uses it against us in the future, then you will really regret it." Shangguan Jing's expression darkened, "For the future, no matter how big the sacrifice is, it is worth it.
.”
After saying that, he stood up, said "Excuse me" and walked out of the room.
The work outside resumed. Jiang Qiao closed the door, turned around and said to Xu Huo: "Take a good look at these materials, but I don't know how helpful they can be."
The further Xu Huo looked back, the more frightened he became.
Ever since the multi-layer space appeared under Zangxian Lake, there have been constant energy fluctuations. The military classified them according to the characteristics of these fluctuations, with a total of nineteen types.
In other words, the folded space may not be fixed, but at least nineteen different spaces have appeared. As for whether they have always been maintained or whether they flash regularly, it is not clear yet, because their internal spaces are within spaces.
, it is no longer possible to detect accurate information outside the ruins gate, all of which were paid for with human lives.
The circumstances of those who were missing are unknown, but most of the players who came out with injuries were physically mutilated. Some were unlucky and were only half alive when they were forcibly taken out by their teammates...
The room was very quiet. Jiang Qiao stared at the information and remained silent.
"Were all the people killed and injured so far attacked by the same force?" Xu Huo asked again after a moment.
"Except for the tombs, the folding space is like this." Jiang Qiao replied: "After the folding space appeared, there were new changes in the tombs. All the water creatures before were lurking, as if new ones were born.
The evolved species, the players explored the entrance and detected strong life energy, but the things inside did not come out. To avoid unnecessary complications, we did not force the entrance."
"So it might be caused by the folding space?" Xu Huo said.
"I can't tell." Jiang Qiao opened a document at hand and put it in front of him. "Our instruments can still detect the appearance of the folded space, but when did the things in the tombs appear? We are completely
I didn’t know it, but I was shocked that something was wrong when other mutated fish suddenly changed their trajectory.”
"Which of the mutated species in China are more lethal at present?" Xu Huo asked instead.
"Mainly marine creatures. The animals in the deep sea that were originally huge and with strong attack power have evolved most obviously. On land, there are mainly ferocious beasts. Generally, there has been obvious evolution in physical strength, speed, and skin. There has not yet been a large-scale appearance of such animals.
To the extent that genes mutate into new species like in other regions."
"The only ones that have changed a lot are snakes."
