Chapter 68 The exam begins, candidates are invited to enter the exam room(1/2)
Zizzi!
A flare dispersed the darkness, and there was a valley below the cliff, and the town covered in ice and snow was clearly visible.
Dozens of figures stood on the edge looking down, behind them were a large number of snow engineering vehicles carrying heavy machinery used to drill into the ground.
"It is a whaling station that has been abandoned for many years. The people who once lived here disappeared mysteriously overnight. The reason has not yet been investigated," said the black woman in the group. "According to satellite images, the mysterious pyramid we are looking for is
Directly below."
The white-haired old man beside him rubbed his palms expectantly, and said with a weak but excited expression, "Then let's go down."
His name is Charles, and he is a very rich man who will not live long.
The explorers, archaeologists, chemists, mercenaries, etc. around him are all professionals he spent a lot of money to gather together.
As for the reason why they went to the barren Antarctica with all their troubles, it is even more outrageous to the point of science fiction.
A few days ago, Charles's private satellite detected an abnormal heat source in Antarctica. After some expensive exploration and scanning, he came up with an incredible answer.
There is a pyramid building hidden under the ice and frozen soil of Antarctica!
The elderly Charles is suffering from advanced lung cancer. With countless wealth, he has long been out of vulgar taste, and material things can no longer bring him satisfaction.
He wanted to do a great thing that would be passed down through the ages before he died, instead of being an ordinary businessman that no one would remember a hundred years later, so he gathered talents from all over the world and formed an exploration team to discover the secrets under Antarctica.
This is not Egypt, which is full of pyramids, but Antarctica, which is covered in ice and snow. What does the pyramids frozen in the frozen soil mean?
This pyramid is likely to be the first pyramid in the world, and it is even more likely to be the origin of civilization for all pyramids. It contains countless possibilities and may involve the biggest secret in human history.
This discovery is enough to shock the world and cause a global sensation. It is also enough to put the name of Charles Weiland in the annals of history, allowing future generations to talk about him like he was praising Magellan.
Half an hour later.
They found a huge circular hole on a mountain wall, extending downward at a thirty-degree angle with no end in sight.
The rock wall inside the cave is extremely neat and smooth, and not far from the cave entrance, there is a strange gap in a sentry tower, the size and angle of which exactly match the cave entrance, forming a straight line falling from the sky.
"We have reached the location of the pyramid," Charles pointed at the computer in disbelief. "At the same time yesterday, there was no such passage."
“No country in the world can dig a tunnel of this level in one day!” a professional said with certainty.
They all fell silent in unison, feeling strangely uneasy in their surprise.
This puzzled everyone. Even if they thought about it, they would not know that this was actually the entrance to the examination room blasted out by the main ship with a plasma beam.
"No matter what secret is hidden, we will know it when we get down." Charles pondered for a moment and said with firm eyes.
at the same time.
Thousands of meters above the Antarctic.
The main ship of the Zhuyan Tribe slowly passed by.
In a closed room, three Ironbloods stood in three directions, with a holographic projection device in the middle. The content of the picture was exactly the scene of the group of humans standing at the entrance of the cave.
It is possible to take clear pictures from such a long distance and in the wind and snow. The iron-blooded technology is indeed strong enough.
It is obvious that the pyramid is the hunting ground for the coming-of-age ceremony, and those unfortunate humans are just the cornerstones for the coming-of-age ceremony, and were deliberately lured here.
One of them is Chu Xin, and the other two are Scar and Kelte. As for Zhan Bo, who was replaced by Chu Xin, he was sent to another examination room near the solar system.
Coming of age assessment: The moment the plasma beam hits the earth, it is equivalent to the door of the examination room opening, and now it is time to wait for the test papers to be in place and the candidates to enter.
As soon as the opportunity comes, the three of them will rush to the examination room immediately.
Ten minutes later.
During the projection, a group of people began to use equipment to enter the cave and formally explore the pyramid.
"Why don't we start yet?" Kelt twisted his neck excitedly. He was already impatient and wanted to kill him right away.
Scar said nothing, as calm as a sculpture.
Chu Xin was trying hard to recall the plot in his memory and ponder the characteristics of the Alien Queen.
To be honest, I am not worried about death, because even if the head is cut off, the other two characters can be switched instantly. The Predator will return to his original state after 24 hours, unless all characters are killed.
Buzz!
At this time, the hatch behind the three people opened.
These are three single-person delivery pods that will help them reach the examination room accurately.
Chu Xin lay down in it, and the hatch quickly closed, followed by violent tremors.
call--
Three missile-like delivery bays were shot out from the main ship and fell straight into the snowy field below.
Puff puff!
The drop capsule is inserted into the thick snow.
Chu Xin walked out wearing battle armor. The equipment on his body was the "examination stationery" issued by the tribe, and the set of system rewards were stored in the card.
There are telescopic spears, disc darts, wrist knives and other cold weapons. Perhaps out of rigor and difficulty, the most powerful plasma shoulder cannon among conventional individual weapons is stored in the examination room, and you need to go in and get it yourself.
Chu Xin and the other two people looked at each other, activated their invisibility, and headed straight for the whaling station.
After entering the town, the three of them spread out.
Because ten of Charles's mercenaries were still stationed on the ground, patrolling with great vigilance.
Huhu~
In addition to the biting cold wind that was whistling non-stop from all directions, there were faint sounds like auditory hallucinations.
It was like the low breathing of some kind of beast, as if it was deliberately releasing a dangerous signal that had an intimidating effect. It instantly made the two mercenaries' scalps numb and they looked around with guns raised.
Chu Xin glanced at Celtic, who was a hundred meters away. Isn't that guy too excited?
While he was thinking this, he quietly came up behind a mercenary and stabbed him in the back of the neck with a wrist knife.
The sharp metal tore his vocal cords, and the mercenary was unable to scream until he died.
Bang bang bang!
On the other side, after attacking one person, Celtic was shot by another person. The armor was struck by bullets, revealing an obvious mosaic outline.
The sound of gunfire attracted the attention of the other mercenaries, who picked up their weapons and shot randomly.
Dark night, wind and snow, and the unknown. Under the influence of these three factors, the murderous mercenaries had already panicked at my grandma's house.
laugh!
The invisible Scar threw a spear, piercing a man carrying a light machine gun and nailing him to the wall.
call!
A flying knife flew out, and Chu Xin killed the mercenary who wanted to attack him with a backhand.
Because he is always moving, there will be a looming human figure, which is not difficult for the human eye to detect.
"ah--"
In the blink of an eye, the mercenaries were killed one by one, and soon the entire army was wiped out, with no one surviving.
Kelt and Scar hung their bodies from the rafters.
This move is full of the style of primitive tribes, with the meaning of showing off trophies and declaring honor, just like those savages in Africa who insert the skulls of beasts in front of their houses.
To put it bluntly, it is a sense of ritual.
Didi~
Chu Xin clicked on the small screen on the wristband, and the 3D perspective projection showed that Charles and his party had entered the pyramid and should be arriving at the sacrifice room soon.
According to the development of the plot, the mechanical system inside the pyramid has begun to operate, the frozen alien queen has been awakened, and the facehugger eggs are about to hatch.
The exam content for the three of them is to eliminate the aliens that will be born and survive until the end.
time does not wait!
Chu Xin jumped down first and slid along the smooth slope to the bottom.
There is a unique cave in the underground world.
Under the illumination of the mine searchlights installed by Charles and the others, an ancient and magnificent pyramid stood in the spacious rock cave. On the left and right sides of the steps, there were statues of a kneeling Predator.
It is not an Egyptian painting style, but a structure between the Mayan pyramids and the Cambodian pyramids. It looks very...evil and weird.
Especially the deep underground where no sunlight can be seen is even more chilling.
Fortunately, Chu Xin is not a human being, so he has no feelings about this. After all, the Zhuyan tribe has many more evil buildings than this one.
It can be seen from this that the relationship between the earth and the Predator is very deep.
Thousands of years ago, the orthodox iron-blooded clan discovered the earth where civilization had stagnated.
They were "well-intentioned" and came in a battleship, descending with a high profile.
The Iron-Blooded clan helps humans get out of ignorance and teaches them advanced behaviors such as construction, so they are regarded as gods.
In return, humans, under the command of the Iron-Blooded Clan, built countless pyramids, which were specially prepared for assessment and hunting grounds for minors.
To be continued...
