Chapter 77 Traces of Indigenous Civilization

"...Everyone hide in the corner or next to the pillar! Don't panic, hide everyone!"

Yu Yifeng kept shouting loudly while pressing his body against the pillar behind him.

He looked at more and more cracks on the ceiling, and felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart...

The power of an individual is always limited. Even if he is a super human, no matter how fast he reacts or how powerful he is, he cannot prevent this disaster from happening!

Everyone felt like they had been caught in a trap, and it was really frustrating. We were five hundred meters underground, and it was not an open air place. Even if there was a landslide, there would be no place to run!

"It's about to collapse! Everyone is hiding in the corner...waiting for rescue!" He could only squat beside the pillar and shouted anxiously.

The shaking underground was getting bigger and bigger, probably because of the engine explosion, which caused some chain collapse reaction. After a few seconds, only a loud "boom" was heard, and the entire cave suddenly collapsed!

With a "crash" sound, large and small rocks fell down, and people suddenly let out bursts of exclamations.

A huge falling rock scraped against the power armor and hit Yu Yifeng, almost crushing his feet, leaving only a small gap.

Immediately afterwards, more rocks of various sizes fell down...

Yu Yifeng secretly lamented his good luck. Now everyone only cares about their own life and death, how can they care about others!

While protecting his head with his hands, he cursed in his mind. The engine was three hours ahead of schedule. Those damn bugs must have broken the water tank in the cooling room!

Otherwise... the safety mechanism of the nuclear engine has been carefully designed by scientists, and it is usually impossible to advance the situation!

This nuclear explosion caused a small earthquake of magnitude 4 to 5. If placed on the earth, it may not be a big deal. But it may be serious in a place like this. It is a honeycomb-like cave environment!

For a time, large and small landslides occurred one after another. It is unknown how many bugs were killed by nuclear explosions, and how many animals were buried alive...

This huge cave of two hundred square meters could not withstand the shaking of the earth. Yu Yifeng and the others were truly buried!

Fortunately, most of the 100 people were hiding in the corner and wearing thick power armor. I don’t know what the situation is...

During this kind of earthquake, hiding in the corner is the safest. Because when hiding in the corner, even if a stone falls, it may not hit the head directly, but may lean against the wall diagonally.

In this way, a "triangular space" is created, which not only provides a living space, but also can resist falling objects.

But some people are lucky and some are unlucky.

Especially - the eight people who just wanted to go out on an adventure were in a very bad situation!

The landslide came so suddenly, and they were buried alive by the collapsed passage! Then, the ground under their feet seemed unable to bear the weight of the rocks above, and a large hole suddenly appeared!

A group of people rolled down the cave together with a large number of stones...

At this time, who could care about other people? There were falling rocks and shouting everywhere, and no one noticed the eight people who fell in the distance.

These falling rocks formed a huge debris flow in the blink of an eye, driving these people towards deeper caves! In the face of this natural power, humans have no room for resistance even if they wear power armor. They can only accept it like dead pigs.



Some soldiers even passed out directly...

The entire collapse lasted for three to five minutes before the cave slowly returned to calm.

Yu Yifeng shook his head, feeling that his whole body was pressed by stones, leaving only a small space for movement. After he woke up from the chaotic state, he quickly opened the internal communicator and asked everyone not to move.

Keep your mind stable to reduce oxygen consumption.

"... Don't worry, everyone, we have just changed the oxygen and it can last for two to three days. The rescue team outside will find us soon!"

In fact, Yu Yifeng was not sure whether people outside could find the person buried five hundred meters under the ground...

I don’t know how long it has been...

"Leo, wake up, wake up quickly!"

Private Leo suddenly felt someone tapping his helmet. He was one of the eight soldiers who went out on an expedition.

He opened his eyes in a daze, and when he saw the person in front of him, he subconsciously shouted: "Squadron Captain!"

"Check your body quickly. Is there any internal bleeding? Can you still move?"

The name of the eight-person team leader was Wu Hao, and he asked anxiously.

After he woke up, he found himself in an unknown huge cave, where the temperature was even as high as 18 degrees Celsius!

After hearing Wu Hao's words, Leo felt sore all over his body, and he didn't know how many somersaults he had done in the mudslide.

He checked carefully and forced himself to stand up. "It's nothing serious... I should still be able to move! It's just that my ankle was twisted a few times, so it's fine!"

"That's good!"

Wu Hao was immediately overjoyed: "Let's dig out the others quickly!"

He shouted into the communicator: "If you are still conscious, please make a sound to report your location!"

Suddenly, calls for help came from the pile of rocks in twos and threes. They were all buried under the pile of rocks, unable to move at all.

Wu Hao turned on the power armor chainsaw on his left hand, and instantly made the sound of the chainsaw spinning. He waved his hand and said: "Let's go dig rocks!"

Soon, several comrades who had been buried shallowly were dug out, and all of them were found to be fine!

It was the power armor that saved their lives. Without this layer of strong metal armor, they would have lost arms and legs in the mudslide, and they might not even have died.

In fact, apart from the fact that the helmet is not resistant to acid corrosion, there is nothing to be picky about in this set of equipment. Even the glass in the helmet was designed to be corrosion-resistant. What about sulfuric acid and aqua regia are no longer there at all.

Next words.

But the biological acid secreted by black insects is acid that has evolved over hundreds of millions of years. People never thought of it beforehand, and in fact, scientists can’t blame it.

The more people were rescued, the faster the digging was. After more than three hours of digging, all eight people were dug out and gathered together to discuss the current situation.

"The oxygen is still sufficient, so we can last for about three days, and the food is enough for two days. However, we don't carry much cryogenic gas, so we can only last for five hours... The situation is not good!"

Another young man suddenly said: "Squadron Captain... If it doesn't work out, we can bury ourselves in the soil to resist those black insects. But then we can only passively wait for rescue..."

This is a good idea.

Wu Hao thought for a moment and nodded decisively: "Okay, let's search here first to see if there is an exit to the top. If the freezing gas runs out and black insects are attracted, we can only wait passively.

.”

"Okay... everyone, follow closely! Please raise your vigilance to the highest level!"

The remaining people immediately stood up straight and shouted loudly: "Yes! Sir!"

A group of people groped deeper underground, the cave became more open, and they encountered more strange creatures.

These creatures are generally larger in size. When encountering these eight people, they all stay on guard and then retreat far away.

But they were just soldiers, not scientists, and they didn't have the leisure and grace to stop and appreciate it.

An hour later, Wu Hao and others came to a warm and humid area. The instrument showed that the surface temperature had reached 20 degrees Celsius. It was really getting hotter!

Wu Hao suddenly stopped, as if he saw something strange, and he quickly gestured behind him.

Suddenly everyone was holding guns and surrounded Wu Hao.

And he squatted down and fiddled with a bunch of things with his hands.

A clump of... glowing fungi!

A bunch of glowing fungi tied together like a bouquet!

These luminous fungi grow a bit like bean sprouts. The root fibers at the bottom are firmly tied by a vine-like rope, and the top is arranged, like a bouquet of luminous flowers!
