45: Chapter 45 The more snakes you kill, the more snakes there are!
When everyone at the scene heard Lord Song's words, they felt a slight chill run down their spines.
After all, they had previously seen on the murals within the Tomb of Prince Gumo that the thirty-some ancient kingdoms had joined forces to resist this so-called Ancient Kingdom of Jingjue.
It was just that the ruler of the Ancient Kingdom of Jingjue in the painting looked like a demon.
Thinking of this, as Wu Ren and the other two looked at the stone statue of the Queen, a sense of fear inexplicably welled up within them.
"Team Leader Wu... do you think this stone statue will move?"
Gong Chen said fearfully, while subconsciously taking a few steps back.
However, at this moment, Wu Ren shook his head slightly.
"Don't scare yourself here. Thinking too much at a time like this will only make it easier to fall into hallucinations."
"Understood."
Gong Chen shook his head hard, trying not to let these wild thoughts occupy his mind.
And just at this moment, Wei Zhiyuan saw a group of people rushing over from a distance.
"Exoskeleton armor? These are people from the Luohang Expedition Team!!"
"Luohang Expedition Team??"
Wu Ren frowned, and immediately said,
"Lord Song, we must leave quickly. The firepower of these people's weapons is in no way weaker than that of the official expedition teams.
Plus, the exoskeleton armor they are wearing is extremely fierce equipment.
They are the only expedition team in the entire forbidden area to have them."
"Exoskeleton?"
Song Yiqing felt a bit puzzled hearing this term.
He had heard of it before, but he had never truly seen it.
But now, it certainly looked very terrifying.
Sometimes, expedition teams backed and funded by such capital companies are often, in certain situations, even more ferocious than many official archaeological expedition teams.
And judging from their target, they were most likely coming for the eyeball jade in his hand.
Clearly, these people from the private expedition team knew just as much information as the official expedition teams.
However, leaving now was clearly unreasonable.
Because the pure vision agama orb had not yet been obtained.
He shook his head, then began to carefully observe the surrounding situation.
The structure of this top level was not much different from the other levels.
And there was another mural here.
It depicted a hollow void, and that was it.
"Bottomless pit..."
In the deepest part of the Jingjue Tomb,
below the place where the Queen of Jingjue slept, was a bottomless pit, which was also the source of the Ancient Kingdom of Jingjue's development.
Legend had it that there was a skeleton of the Snake God inside.
And this pitch-black hole likely represented the bottomless pit where the Snake God's skeleton was located.
Bullet comments section:
[Seriously? Brothers?? The Luohang Expedition Team is already here, and you're still not running?? You really aren't afraid of death!]
[The Luohang Expedition Team is truly ferocious. They even beat an Underworld Flame Giant Scorpion to death directly, relying solely on their immense lethality. They didn't even bother to look for any weaknesses.]
[Good heavens, with that said, who is stronger and who is weaker is completely obvious. This Luohang Expedition Team is basically using cheat codes! How is this fightable?]
[Looking at their situation, they must want to seize the eyeball jade. What on earth is the use of this thing?]
[Is the person above an idiot? What the eyeball jade is used for isn't important, but the content Song Yiqing deciphered using the stolen ghost cave script translation method already shows that the eyeball shape is a symbol of the Ancient Kingdom of Jingjue. And something that can make a Wandering Zombie follow it so desperately must definitely have some secrets!]
[Is it possible that having this bead gives one a way to find the location of the Ancient Kingdom of Jingjue? Could it be that one can find the so-called immortality!!]
On the internet, legends of immortality in the Taklamakan Desert had long been circulating.
So, many netizens made corresponding associations at this time.
Meanwhile, on the Luohang Expedition Team's livestream screen,
a group of ten people were all wearing exoskeleton armor. With the support of this exoskeleton armor, their speed had improved by leaps and bounds, and their strength was immense.
Even in the desert where it was difficult to run, they could easily move as if walking on flat ground.
The leader, Guo Xueyan, was constantly watching the situation on the livestream screen.
When she noticed that Song Yiqing had chosen to ignore them after learning of their arrival, it couldn't help but make her, as the team leader, feel a trace of anger.
"Hmph!! You really have a lot of confidence. Just because you know a little ancient martial arts, you can be that calm?"
"Sister Xueyan, what exactly is the use of that eyeball jade?"
At this moment, a petite woman—Ding Ziwei—spoke up,
"If it turns out to be useless, and we've set ourselves against Song Yiqing and the others, I'm afraid that wouldn't be very appropriate, right?"
"What are you afraid of!!"
Guo Xueyan's tone carried a hint of anger. Since becoming the leader of the Luohang Expedition Team, she had relied on her decisive and ruthless style, making everyone participating in the forbidden area exploration fear them.
But now, someone was ignoring her. To Guo Xueyan, this was a great humiliation.
This was the situation she could least tolerate.
Besides wanting to seize the eyeball jade, she also wanted to let Song Yiqing and Zhang Qilin properly witness what the power of technology was.
Jianghu tricks are all crooked paths; firepower is the future!
"If we're on opposite sides, then so be it. If they don't submit, we fight!!"
As Guo Xueyan shouted sharply, the figure of the black tower appeared directly in front of them, and then she yelled,
"Accelerate!!"
But just at this moment, on the livestream screen, a large number of strange snakes with black flesh tumors suddenly darted out from the ceiling.
At the same time, they were already pouncing towards Song Yiqing and the others.
Seeing this scene, she also frowned.
"Song Yiqing, you better not die before I come to beat you up!!"
...
On the livestream screen, Song Yiqing was originally carefully examining the ceiling.
As a result, Gong Chen, who was on the side, pushed a stone on the ground, and with a click,
the ceiling instantly cracked open, and immediately after, countless Jingjian Ahan with flesh tumors instantly darted out from it.
"This is not a hallucination!! Kill!!"
Song Yiqing shouted sharply, while simultaneously drawing his short blade, and stepping on the Lost Step to quickly dodge around.
Zhang Qilin nimbly wielded the black gold ancient blade in his hand, thereby slaughtering the Jingjian Ahan here.
On the other side, Wu Ren and the others were constantly pulling the triggers of the firearms in their hands.
Rat-tat-tat-tat!! A dense stream of bullets poured out in an instant.
But many of the bullets missed their targets entirely.
And at this moment, Song Yiqing also noticed something strange.
The more snakes they kill, the more there are!
