In the evening, all the teams got the extra things and approached the volcanic no-man's land again.

Clecy and Trono also set out on their own shortly after, following a path flooded by wild grass. They speculated that the prey was probably looking for something, and that the appearance of "germs" should not be a coincidence, not a change in the natural environment, or a phenomenon caused by some man-made instrument.

The weather is clearing, the clouds in the sky have dissipated a lot, and the white moonlight is making the surroundings even more bleak. The four of them stopped when they could clearly see the huge black shadow of the mountain range, which was not too far away, and there was still a long way to go forward, but the pale green light that gradually appeared around them made them have to stop and think about something.

"Mi Weijia, you go back first, if you don't know what the 'germs' are, the further back you go, the higher the danger to you. "Klexi and the others have clearly felt the changes around them, and the concentration of a certain substance in the air has increased a lot. They didn't feel anything unusual yet, just a slight touch on their skin that alerted them. Mi Weijia doesn't seem to be doing very well now, and among the four, only her surgery is in the second stage. I wasn't in a hurry, but my breathing became a little unusually short.

"It's just scattered in the air, ordinary gas masks don't work, clothes can resist, but it's only a very small part, so to speak, no. Ressa took off the breathing mask on her face and said with a sigh, "I really don't know what the prey is doing in such a place, if you are looking for something, then this thing is too special." ”

"The prey itself has a lot of suspicions, and at the moment, it is still within the acceptable range. The three of us can continue to walk, and this is far from the range of prey perception that can be enveloped. Trono took a step, but could be heard in his tone of voice that he was not very reluctant. The unknown will always be untouchable.

For the cave network, Kasia is already very familiar. Ready, Kasia didn't rush into the place where the spiral staircase leads, he spent a day or two exploring the cave around the connecting hall, and after making sure that nothing would happen to him after entering the spiral staircase, he pulled open the circular stone slab and walked inside.

But it didn't seem to have expected the slate to close automatically. By the time Kasia reached the middle of the staircase, the round stone slab returned to the distance at a great speed and sealed the exit with the sound of a roaring grinding.

There was no choice but to remove him again and use his pneumatic sword to dig around the cobblestone slab, revealing the transmission inside. It is made of the same material as the ball device, and it is often worn. Because it could not be destroyed, Kasia violently dragged out a major transmission gear with a steel cable rope, and then walked down the stairs again with peace of mind.

It is about 40 meters deep underground, and there are also shrunken stone paintings inside the stairwell, and the contents are mostly repetitive. The further down you go, the more intense the smell of silence in the air becomes. There's also the white light pollution here, and it's much higher than in the hall. The turbulent sensations overwhelmed Kasia after that, and if it weren't for Sucarus' methods, perhaps the dragon tissues in her body would have been awakened by these sensations.

Every step was taken carefully, and before long, a vast lonely dark space appeared in Kasia's perception, far wider than the hall above, and the staring beam of the flashlight did not reach its end. In the light, there were only clumps of jade-like dragon bones coiled up, and there were many, many of them, and Kasia could only find this adjective for a while.

At the top of the staircase, I saw Grote's mark, which should be the last place.

"These sleeping dragons don't seem to be in the original agreement. Kasia lit a pile of solid fuel at the top of the staircase, and the light of the fire illuminated a small area.

A dragon skeleton was not far from the flames, shaped like a mountain bulging, and an ordinary rib was the size of three or four adults, with a little reflection of fluorescence. The bones were very smooth and showed no signs of being fossilized, but there were no strange words on them that Brino had seen there.

Inside that huge spine, there is still a basic consciousness. The moment the firelight rose, all eyes converged on Kasia's body through the two hollow eye sockets on the skull.

A cold sweat broke out on his forehead for a while, and although he was sure that he had taken away the energy source above, he was still a little scared in his heart. If there was another separate energy source here, and it was activated because of something sensed, Kassia really couldn't imagine the consequences of it. The moment he stepped out of the stairwell, Kasia was sure of it. Because the feeling of "germs" that have always been present around me has become very light. As for where those "germs" went, he could only think of an explanation that they had been absorbed by these sleeping dragons.

It took some time to bring in wiring and light fixtures to illuminate this vast underground space. Roughly twenty times the size of the upper hall, a real fake dead graveyard, each dragon was much larger than Brino had seen. Just a preliminary count, the complete dragon bones entrenched here have reached two or three thousand.

It is also an irregular circle, and the specific shape should be the appearance of a six-pointed star. The coiled keel is scattered out at the center point. The ground is very flat, and there is no trace of rest and excavation at all, and strange characters appear on it again, but it is more like an artistic style. And there are also many patterns the size of an adult's arm, which are combined into strange patterns, covering most of the ground of the six-pointed star.

Kasia walked around and drew a six-pointed star against a backdrop, using the pen and paper she had with him. From the somewhat awkward pattern, it is not difficult to see the meaning inside.

"The circle should represent the sun, the semicircle is the moon, and this small dot is probably the stars. "In the pattern, the sun, moon and stars are separated from each other on a six-pointed star background. They are all surrounded by circles, large and small, which are connected to each other to form a whole complex pattern. The keel placed on the sun, moon and stars is also a little larger than the surrounding one.

"It must have been something needed for priestly activity, perhaps a sign of the time, like the pattern on the imperial flag. Kasia thought, but as a national flag, the pattern seemed too cumbersome. It's more like an art painting made of circles and lines, and even if it is drawn by Cassia's hand, and he doesn't have any sense of aesthetics, he can feel a kind of beauty that he can't experience.

I can't say where I feel beautiful, it's just that I feel like that, when I am hungry, I see delicious food, and my instinctive appetite rises.

After a few turns here, Kasia didn't see the second-generation holy sword mentioned by Grote. But at the center of the six-pointed star, the center of the space, a huge stone coffin was placed. There is a mark of Grote next to it, and at the end there is a smiling face drawn casually with a sharp weapon, as if to commend the people who have come here.

Kasia couldn't laugh at all, and she couldn't even breathe a sigh of relief. He had always hinted that he was only psychological, but the gaze coming from the dragon skeleton put a lot of pressure on him.

Walking around the stone coffin, Kasia found no other information other than the strange characters carved on it. After muttering to himself a few times that there was no energy source for those dragons to wake up, Kasia exhaled a breath and decided something, put his hands on the lid of the coffin, and pushed the lid open with a "squeak" of friction.
