Beichuan's captain's room fell into a long period of silence. After the radio connected to the 'Snake' was unilaterally cut off by the underwater end, the room fell into uneasy silence. Mainly because Lin Nian spoke too much before leaving the public channel.
It is open-ended, allowing people to constantly imagine what they encountered underwater.
"How is Ye Sheng's situation?" Manstein picked up the communicator to slightly break the dull atmosphere. He knew that if this situation was allowed to continue, it would only have a bad impact on morale.
"No problem, 'Snake' is in a low-frequency release state. He said that it can be maintained in this state for the time being to restore some physical strength to ensure that a communication bond can be established in the future under possible strong interference." Chu Zihang's report sounded in the captain's room.
, on the deck, he was wearing a raincoat and standing next to Ye Sheng, who was also wearing a black raincoat, shawl and hat. His scorching golden eyes were always scanning the environmental changes in the surrounding river area.
"Ye Sheng has always been one of the best users of 'Snake'. Let him not put too much pressure on him. He is not the only user of 'Snake' in this mission. Let him know that he will change his shift after an hour.
The first mate will replace me as captain while I am in charge of the communication connection." Manstein said to the communicator, and nodded to the first mate beside him. The latter saluted, which probably meant that he would fulfill his duties faithfully.
Just when Manstein put down his communicator, exciting news finally came from the underwater team on the other end.
"This is Lin Nian. Group A has arrived at the gate of Bronze City."
Manstein immediately jumped back to the console and picked up the communicator he had just put down. "This is the Beichuan. Have you arrived at the Huoling Front?"
"Yes, Captain, it's just that we have a little problem now."
"What's the problem? Did you encounter any trouble?" Manstein's expression gradually became serious.
"No, strictly speaking, we are not in trouble." Floating in the deep black water under a hundred meters of rock formations, he slowly raised his head and looked up at the huge and magnificent bronze door in front of him and said, "I have already
Upload the photos back to Beichuan, please check them carefully."
The Beichuan received new data half a minute later. Norma unpacked and appeared on the screen in the captain's room. It was a giant bronze door with a black bronze texture. It was so huge that it was difficult to imagine what a giant could be.
Passing through this door seems to connect heaven and earth.
What is even more shocking is the magnificent mural on the giant door that can be called art. Everyone in front of the screen in the captain's room couldn't help but lean back to avoid the sharpness and viciousness of the painting.
On top of the giant bronze door, there is a giant dragon with scales and armor nailed to the throne by seven swords that reach the sky. The dragon's blood stains every corner of the throne, and the seven swords of different shapes drink thirstily.
The dragon's blood seemed to be breathing in joy, and the dragon's slightly drooped eyes were filled with an indescribable emotion.
There is no doubt that the masterpiece of the master is just carved from a huge bronze door, without using any pigment to add color. The carving details of each scale and feather highlight the violence of the seven swords and the heavy sorrow of the Dragon King before his death, as well as enough.
It creates a "coercion", and anyone who sees this work will be mentally shocked, and those who look directly at it will be even more affected.
"Those are the seven deadly sins?"
Caesar was the first to recognize these seven swords. After the Battle of Constantine, he did a lot of research on the origins of the alchemy swords that sealed the Dragon King with Solomon's formation. Naturally, he was familiar with these seven swords with different shapes.
mythical sword.
"Is that the Dragon King who was crucified?" The first mate looked at Manstein for a moment, only to find that Manstein's face looked particularly dull now.
"Why is there this door here?" In Shutoku Aki's memory, there shouldn't be such a door here. Originally, the living entrance of Baidi City should have been violently broken in by the next generation using 'Jun Yan'
It was destroyed during the meltdown, but now this brand new bronze door has filled the gap.
"It seems that the Dragon King also repaired the facade when he returned home." Lin Nian swam closer to the door and put his hand on it. The cold river water had already cooled the bronze, but he seemed to still be able to feel the cold bronze.
What is hidden deeper underneath is the blazing heat of revenge that will not decrease with the temperature of the river water.
Blood will cool down as time goes by, but where is the blood flowing in the veins of the sculptor of this painting? What is hot and waiting to overflow is the hot magma that is boiling and waiting to erupt.
"Is this Constantine?" Lu Mingfei said stumblingly as he looked at the dragon king who was stabbed to death on the giant bronze door. He was originally thinking about where the female ghost had gone, but now his mind was completely distracted by this impactful giant picture.
He was attracted by the painting, and he felt that the pinnacle of ancient Greek statues could only be reduced to a flat surface. It was really a two-dimensional painting that placed the tragedy of the dead dragon in the real world and shocked the hearts of everyone who saw it.
Lin Nian stared at the painting without saying anything, but quietly stared at the Dragon King who was pierced by seven swords.
"Isn't it a little too unlucky to carve the death of my own brother in front of the gate of Baidi City?" Caesar whispered.
“You can really feel Norton’s anger when he carved this door through the mural.” Manstein pressed his right hand on the console and used force to highlight the veins. “Even though behind the door is the Pompeii volcano that is about to erupt, we
You still have to make a breakthrough, this bronze city is extremely sealed, and the blood of the Holy Infant must be detonated inside to exert its lethality against the Dragon King."
"I think so too. Now that I'm here, there's no turning back." Lin Nian echoed Manstein's thoughts.
"Lin Nian, can you find a way to open this door? Maybe you can find a living being hidden in this door. There are three 'keys' in your waist that you can use."
"I'm looking." Lin Nian looked back at Lu Mingfei, who was still shocked by the mural on the giant door to the sky, and waved to him, "Look for a statue that looks like a human face. That's the best way to open this door."
You look for the entrance to the gate from above, and I look for it from below."
"Okay." Lu Mingfei withdrew his gaze and swam closer to the giant bronze door so as not to be distracted by the full view of the mural again. He followed Lin Nian's prompts and started searching hard.
The two began to explore every corner of the giant door from top to bottom, until they reunited in the middle and looked at each other. Needless to say, they knew that neither of them had discovered anything. The way the giant bronze door was opened seemed to have nothing to do with being alive.
It involves other methods.
"Could the secret to opening the door be in the mural?" Lu Mingfei, a novice dragon slayer, boldly put forward his idea.
"What's the basis? Lu Mingfei, did you find anything in the murals?" Captain Manstein subconsciously asked.
"No, no, no, I mean, don't you see that in adventure puzzle games like "Tomb Raider" and "Uncharted"? When you go to a place with decryption factors, the biggest clue is the mural.
"Lu Mingfei explained dryly, always feeling that it was a bit ridiculous to propose a game work at such a serious time.
"This may be an idea." There was silence in the captain's room for a long time before Caesar's voice rang out, "We will let Norma analyze and study the details of the mural as soon as possible. You can work hard for the time being and then look for anything else."
Underwater Lu Mingfei was relieved when he heard Caesar's answer. At least he was not ridiculed for his views as a gamer. However, he really felt from the bottom of his heart that the secret of opening the door was hidden in the mural, otherwise the Dragon King would have spent so much time carving this
What are the murals for? Is it just to be domineering and beautiful?
"Lin Nian, how about we find another place, Lin Nian?" Lu Mingfei turned around and suddenly found that Lin Nian beside him was missing. He subconsciously panicked for a few seconds but immediately remembered the safety rope and looked down towards the dark deep water.
The safety rope extended below, and he immediately swam along and found that Lin Nian had reached the riverbed at the bottom of the river at some point, where the gate extended downwards and touched the ground.
Wait, touchdown?
Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind. Hey, most of the riverbed underground is filled with mud and sand, which is not as hard as the ground. They can become moles and dig a tunnel under this giant door to dig out bronze.
Go to the city!
As soon as he had this idea, he immediately proposed this suggestion to Beichuan through the headset.
"It's a good idea to drill a hole under the door and get into the Bronze City." Manstein was also stunned, but did not reject this extremely creative idea.
"But it depends on whether the ground of the Bronze City has been poured with bronze. If the entire Bronze City has been poured into a seamless structure, you will only dig up the hard bronze ground if you dig holes." Caesar thought.
He said at once, "The idea of drilling holes is indeed a good one. Overall, it's worth a try. Didn't you bring the Seven Deadly Sins with you? As a tool for digging sand, there should be suitable swords that can do the job."
Lu Mingfei thought, can you guys please stop using the word "drill"? It always reminds people of drilling into a dog hole. I can drill if I don't want to lose face, but Lin Nian may not be willing to drill.
When he was about to ask Lin Nian for his opinion, Lin Nian asked a question first, "This door was cast by Norton himself. If you were Norton, how would you open the door?"
"Will I ask the agency to open the door?" Lu Mingfei asked subconsciously.
"What kind of mechanism is needed for such a gate?" Lin Nian said. He swam to the river bed, touched the ground with his feet, put one hand on the gate and said, "This is a trial, a trial from the Dragon King."
Trial?
Before Lu Mingfei could react, someone on the Beichuan suddenly heard someone shouting in the captain's room, "A fairly strong biomagnetic field outbreak under the water has been detected!"
A huge roar sounded, accompanied by violent vibrations of the water flow, as if a low-intensity underwater earthquake had occurred.
In the turbulent flow, Lu Mingfei panicked and tried to find a support, but then he remembered that he was underwater and could only rely on swimming to resist the sudden turbulent current. But at this moment, he suddenly seemed to have realized something and lowered his head suddenly.
He looked towards the riverbed and saw a scene that made him completely Spartan.
A huge amount of bubbles rose from where Lin Nian was standing, and countless pitch-black cracks spread across the river bed. The earth seemed to have been subjected to a terrible force and began to collapse. The eyes of those who borrowed power from the earth were scorching hot, and they were about to go to the river.
The great power borrowed from the earth was fully exerted on this giant bronze door, and actually pushed this magnificent door open bit by bit!
"Idiot!"
Lu Mingfei was the only two words that could describe his current mood. This huge bronze door would have to lift a thousand tons. Although pushing the door does not mean that it can completely lift a thousand-ton giant, no matter how hard it is,
It is definitely not something that human beings can shake. May I ask my brother, is your surname "Lin" or "Fulix"?!
Suddenly, the water in front of the Bronze City no longer flowed randomly, but converged in a neat direction. That was where the huge bronze door opened!
A huge suction force suddenly dragged Lu Mingfei in. Just as Caesar guessed, the Bronze City was indeed a whole, and there was a lot of air inside to cause such an abnormality when the door was opened.
He screamed in fright and grasped the safety rope around his waist, but in despair he found that Lin Nian on the other side of the safety rope was also carried into the giant bronze door by the current with him. After they were sucked into the bronze door,
The huge door behind the door suddenly roared and closed again.
