Chapter 567: Glimmer City (Second Update)

Hearing the words of Commander Ganluo, everyone's spirits couldn't help but be shocked.

Su Peng took the lead in walking forward, and soon, he walked to the place where the commander of Ganluo was.

Sure enough, after a turn, there was an extra fence made of that special material with a diameter of five or six meters in front of it, and behind the fence was the appearance of an underground city.

The reason why Su Peng and the others can see so clearly is because this underground city is in a very wide underground space, and in this underground space, the surrounding stone walls are inexplicably emitting fluorescence, and the whole city is in such a faint light, which makes people see clearly.

Su Peng looked down near the fence, the city was about twenty meters below the fence, the city was not very big, probably a little larger than a town, most of the buildings were made of stone, it seemed that there was no shortage of stone in an underground city.

"Tear down this fence, let's go down."

Looking at the fence in front of him, Su Peng said to a few people around him.

Everyone nodded, and soon the guards removed the wooden fence, and they found a place in it where they could bear the force, and tied the ropes they brought with them in knots at intervals for people to step on and climb, and then went down the ropes.

There are a total of four such ropes, these guards brought by Su Peng have all practiced low-level internal force exercises, and their skills are a little stronger than ordinary people, it is not particularly difficult to go down from a knotted rope from a height of more than twenty meters, and Adulla's men may be even better, and soon, these people are all down from the rope.

Su Peng and Ouyang Qing were a few people who were very good, but they just used the rope to borrow their strength slightly, and they jumped twice and went down to the city below.

Soon, the crowd had entered the underground city.

I saw this city in the middle. Everywhere there were stones with that glimmer, and they glowed faintly like a silver moon, and you could see them even without torches.

"Brother, these stones glow, why do I feel that something is wrong?"

Ouyang Qing looked at these stones, seemed to be a little worried, and said to Su Peng: "I heard a friend who is powerful in a place say that when they opened a mine, they once opened a stone that would shine. But I don't know what Lu Dao does, but it didn't take long, probably less than a year, those miners all died of various diseases, and finally found a great doctor to investigate the cause, and the reason was those glowing stones. ”

Su Peng nodded, he also had basic knowledge of minerals, although he didn't recognize what kind of ore these shiny stones were, but this was definitely not phosphorescent light. According to real-world knowledge, the stone that can generate such a cold light source is likely to be a high-radiation mineral.

"It's not a good place to stay too long, let your guards search this place. Let's see if we can find any clues. ”

Su Peng said to Ouyang Qing, Ouyang Qing nodded, and Gan Luo, the commander of the guards, was also nearby, listening to Su Peng's words. Immediately issue an order to go down and let his men search the glimmering city.

The guards were divided into more than a dozen groups and searched the city. Soon, the search came up with something.

The guards put the things they searched out in a place outside for Su Peng to see.

Su Peng took a look at those suspicious things, and found that many of them were bones, and the bones already looked like fossils, but they didn't look like bones belonging to any kind of earthly creature, but like some monsters.

Su Peng had some knowledge of anatomy, and he squatted down and pieced together several bones that looked like the same creature, trying to restore the original appearance of this creature.

Gradually, in Su Peng's mind, a monster about the size of a scalper, but with a body like a fish, and eight legs, appeared.

"What is this?"

According to his understanding of osteopathy, Su Peng restored what he restored in his mind, it was such a monster, whether it was in reality or in the game of the cycle of death, Su Peng had never seen this kind of monster.

Moreover, the bones on the ground have some fossil tendencies, judging from the knowledge in Su Peng's mind, the bones that have reached this level are generally buried in the mud and sand and the ground, and there is a special environment, which can be completed for millions of years, and the age of this city, if it is a real ancient city here, then it will not exceed five or six thousand years, and it is impossible to reach this level.

"It's a skeleton from a creature, I guess it's some kind of food for the people here, you see, it's found in abundance, and it's found in these stone houses that resemble kitchens."

Adulla was beside him, looking at the bones, and said to Su Peng.

Su Peng nodded, he also asked those guards just now, and it was indeed the case.

"Didn't you find anyone?"

Su Peng looked at a guard who had just participated in the search and asked him.

"No, there's not a single person here, and there's no skeleton or anything to be seen."

The guard shook his head and said to Su Peng.

"It's strange, this is obviously a place where humans live, but I only see the bones of these monsters that may be food, but I can't see the bones of humans, what is going on here?"

Su Peng thought in his heart, and soon, he thought of the place he had just walked by, and the dark green corpses he had seen that could still move.

"The hole in that square just now...... Seventy or eighty, right? There should be a lot of space in those holes, and each one should be more than enough to hold one hundred and two hundred dark green corpses...... Could it be that the people of this underground city have all turned into dark green corpses? ”

Su Peng guessed in his heart.

"Leader Su, I don't think this is the real core of this underground city, or just a peripheral town."

While Su Peng was thinking, Adullah said next to Su Peng.

"Oh? So? ”

Hearing Adullah say this, Su Peng glanced at him and said to him.

"Two points of basis, one is that the mage I once met who shared half of my bad luck told me that a closed race, if the number is less than 20,000 people, the slowly group will decline, this is the factor of blood marriage, if there are more close relatives married, and there are not enough fresh young people in the group, then slowly the whole race will decline...... I'll look here. However, there are six or seven thousand stone rooms, and it is estimated that the total number of people in the city is only 23,000, and such a small group is too easy to decay. ”

"The second is the scale of the place...... Leader Su, did you find it? The whole building here seems to be very large, and according to the pattern, it should not be such a small town in the center, and from the perspective of the pattern, this place looks like a peripheral city. ”

Su Peng listened to Adullah's words. Nodding, he also thought of these two points, no matter who opened up this city, there will always be a certain purpose, and he will definitely not spend so much effort, just to relocate twenty or thirty thousand people to live underground.

"Search a little more, and if there's nothing of interest here, we'll move on."

Su Peng looked at the things searched in front of him and said to the people under him.

Commands from his subordinates. Keep searching.

I searched again, but I didn't find anything particularly useful, it was nothing more than some daily necessities, and Su Peng didn't find more useful clues.

But the way forward. However, two more were found, and in this underground town, in addition to the direction when Su Peng and the others came, there were three directions. There are tunnels leading to other places.

Su Peng personally went to the three tunnels to take a look, and found that the wind was blowing out of the three tunnels, and it seemed that they should all be connected to the living land. However, he hesitated a little for a while, and he didn't know which way to go.

"Brother Su, since we chose the right road last time, why don't we continue to take the right road, and keep choosing this way, and see where we can go in the end?"

Ouyang Qing had been by Su Peng's side, looking at the three tunnels at this time, and said to Su Peng.

Su Peng listened and nodded, since he had already chosen the right side once, it was also a way to continue to choose.

"Then take the road on the far right."

Su Peng said, and his subordinate commander Ganluo and Adulla listened to it, and immediately organized the team and continued to walk towards the tunnel on the far right.

This tunnel is not too long, and along the way, there are this kind of fluorescent stones illuminating the road ahead, I don't know if these stones are really more radiant, or for some other reason, I didn't encounter that kind of giant flesh insect monster along the way, or dark green walking corpses, but Su Peng and the others walked very carefully, the travel speed was not fast, close to fifteen or sixteen minutes, and they walked less than six or seven hundred meters.

After walking for six or seven hundred meters, the front of the tunnel suddenly lit up, and Su Peng and others found that there was a huge square in front of them.

The escort who was exploring the way in front ran back to report at this time, and said to Su Peng and the others: "Leader Su Peng, it seems that the front is ...... It's like an oasis underground! ”

"Huh?"

Su Peng listened, a little strange, he, Ouyang Qing Adullah and the others walked forward, walked to the front of the team, and finally found out what was going on with the underground oasis that the guard said.

In front of me, there is an extremely vast underground space, I am afraid that there are more than two or three hundred thousand square meters, and in this space, there are many plants.

Some of these plants are dark and do not see the number of leaves, but more are extremely tall fungi, these fungi grow extremely tall, each of them is more than one person tall, and there are even two people tall, so that it looks as if they have entered the world of Alice in Wonderland.

When Su Peng and the others saw this, they couldn't help but feel shocked.

"It's strange, there is no sunlight here, and there is not a lot of secondary water, how can there be such a large underground oasis? And there are so many exotic plants? ”

Seeing this, Adullah said in confusion.

Su Peng looked at it and said: "The plants here, I'm afraid they don't grow by the sun, you see, those plants have a slight phosphorescence on their bodies, and the light emitted from the city I just walked through, I think these plants are afraid to absorb the energy of those glowing stones to survive." ”

Adula and the others listened and found that this was indeed the case.

At this moment, Ouyang Qing, who had sharp eyes, suddenly closed his pupils and said to Su Peng: "Brother Su, do you see who is walking in that underground oasis?" (To be continued......)
