The streets of the small town of Karima are empty, residents and tourists have been evacuated, and only personnel from joint teams from various countries are patrolling.
The Nile River runs through the middle of the town. The river is rushing, and the water level is rising rapidly. The rapids have surged up to both sides of the river, submerging the weeds on the shore.
The scorching sun and the endless desert seemed to be calling for the coming of the flood.
For people nourished by the Nile, floods are not a disaster; the absence of floods is a disaster.
"At the current rate of water level rise, the town of Karima will be submerged in another hour..."
The latest reports from the river bank were passed to the command center and to the first joint team at the Nastassen Mausoleum.
At this time, the death squad has been formed, with a total of 12 people, including personnel from the Secret Bureau, FBM, Ross Security Bureau and other organizations.
As for the Tianji personnel, there are only two people at the most, Lou Xiaoning and Chen Jiahua.
The Nile is rising, but the underground water that floods the tombs is still dead.
Standing in front of the narrow underwater stairs, Chen Jiahua exhaled. He put on diving equipment and carried an oxygen tank that was expected to be enough for one hour underwater. The underwater rifle in his hand was particularly heavy because of its arrow shape.
The weight of the bullet is about twice that of ordinary gun bullets.
In fact, he has not received any special training in underwater exploration and combat, but there are many things that he can be prepared for in advance.
A suicide note is one of them.
He had written his suicide note before he set off, and he had just had a phone call with his parents. They were okay for the time being, but the disaster over there was extremely serious. He did not elaborate that he had joined the death squad, but only told them to take care of themselves. Some
It’s strange that I still can’t express the words of gratitude hidden in my heart for being the Son of Man...
There are also girlfriends and friends who are all performing tasks in different places and cannot be contacted one by one.
"What, kid?" Lou Xiaoning, who was walking by, asked, seeing Chen Jiahua exhaling repeatedly, "Are you scared?"
"Captain Lou, I've always been afraid..." Chen Jiahua said, "It's not that I'm not afraid...it's just that there is no way out."
Lou Xiaoning patted his shoulder silently and strode to the front. Liam Walton of FBM, Alexander Smirnov of Ross Security Bureau and others also strode away. It's not that they didn't care.
Life or death, there is no way out.
Someone has to do this fucking death-defying thing.
Xiaoxu, Deng Ximei, Uncle Dan, Wang Ruoxiang, Peacock, Feng Peiqian and others are responsible for staying on the ground and responding to changes that may occur at any time.
"Let's go, follow me." Lou Xiaoning said, adjusting the mask on his face, shaking his hands and feet a few times, and then walked up the stairs towards the water.
More than a dozen steps of this staircase are exposed above the water level, and further down is the pale yellow stagnant water.
The members of the death squad walked down one after another, tensing their nerves and paying attention to the movements around them.
Chen Jiahua was in the middle of the team, looking at Captain Lou at the front who was the first to walk into the water. As soon as the water hit her feet, she stopped and then said: "Be careful from behind, the water temperature is very hot, but the detector
It shows only 18 degrees Celsius, which seems to cause the human body to feel hot."
I have measured the water temperature before, and it is all around 18 degrees. This will not make the human body feel very hot, but rather a bit cool.
It's just that temperature is physical. Low temperature can cause frostbite, and high temperature can cause burns. But cold and heat are nerve sensations in the brain. If the corresponding nerves are damaged, theoretically people can survive without feeling the slightest bit of heat.
The bottom was burned to ashes.
But now those underground water can make people feel hot at 18 degrees.
After Lou Xiaoning, Smirnov and Liam also felt the same way. This must be caused by abnormal power.
"Cheer up your fucking energy." Lou Xiaoning said loudly, "This is fucking dangerous. Can the enemy cook us? Or make us feel like we are about to be cooked? Maybe we will be fine later.
, but after being burned under hundreds of degrees of heat, our spirits collapsed. If any of you feel that you can't hold on, if you are afraid, turn around and go back immediately. This is not a joke, don't show off, now is not the time to show off."
In fact, the members of this team are all hard-core, and they have also played the role of death warriors in their past work as mobile task forces in various countries.
They didn't waver. They had already made their choice before they stepped down the stairs.
Each team member also has explosives strapped to his body, and is prepared to die with the enemy, or to end the ceremony by blowing up.
Only Chen Jiahua is a newcomer and participates in this kind of task.
He took another deep breath, how could his clenched heart not be shaken at all... Go back, turn around and go back. If you go down, you may be drowned, burned to death by high temperatures, crushed to death by falling rocks, or collapsed by the stone chamber.
Crushed to death... maybe there is that kind of crocodile in the water, the Nile crocodile...
Over there, Lou Xiaoning continued to walk forward, and in the blink of an eye, her figure completely disappeared into the water, without even ripples in the water.
"The temperature under water is about the same and stable for the time being," her voice came from the intercom. "I didn't see that broken underwater robot. The equipment is working well. I am near the entrance of the first tomb..."
Chen Jiahua gritted his teeth, remembered Captain Gu Jun's deeds, and walked forward. This was nothing. Finally, after all the team members in front entered the water, he also stepped into the water, and suddenly there seemed to be a hot wave of heat through the diving suit.
It burned his legs, and it seemed as if his own temperature suddenly rose.
"Fuck..." Chen Jiahua murmured and swore. He sped up and walked a few more steps before his whole body was immersed in the water.
The helmet's underwater lighting illuminated the yellowing underground water around him. He looked around through the mask, and figures in front of him swam toward the entrance of the first tomb.
There are three underground tombs in the Nastassen Mausoleum, one after another, the first tomb chamber, the second tomb chamber, and the third tomb chamber.
From the first tomb, you can lead to the second tomb, and then to the third tomb. The third tomb is where Nastassen's sarcophagus is located.
Only the third tomb chamber is located under the pyramid body on the ground, while the other two tomb chambers are only part of the mausoleum.
The team made a plan of action before going into the water. Lou Xiaoning, Smirnov and others arrived at the entrance of the first tomb, preparing to use the tactics of rushing in; Chen Jiahua and others first went to the underwater stairs outside the door.
Space alert, guard all directions.
At this time, their cameras and communication equipment were still functioning, and the signal to the outside world was not interrupted.
"Get ready." Lou Xiaoning said softly, swam his legs, made gestures with his left hand, and held a rifle in his right hand, and he was the first to swim into the first tomb.
Chen Jiahua seemed to vaguely see many cold and bloodthirsty crocodile eyes flashing through the surrounding yellow and black groundwater...
