One Thousand Six Hundred and Four Silent Messages

There was a loud bang and smoke filled the air. Ouyang Pingan placed the explosives just right, creating a hole more than one meter wide and two meters high in the blocked passage, just enough for a fully armed soldier to walk in.

Ye Han didn't know how Ouyang Ping did it. He only knew that Ouyang Ping and several soldiers worked back and forth for more than ten minutes, using lasers to drill dozens of holes in the door before placing the explosives.

Presumably, those dozens of holes were not made in vain.

When the smoke cleared, it was pitch black behind the blasted cliff, and nothing could be seen clearly.

Ye Han took the lead and walked in first. After turning on the night vision goggles, he could see the situation inside clearly.

This is a cave with a height and width of more than four meters. The walls of the cave are full of stones, and there is no trace of artificial repair. Anyone who sees this cave cannot associate it with the underground city.

But after looking down, the situation is different. The ground of the cave is unexpectedly flat, and it is clear at a glance that this place is not simple.

Time waits for no one, Ye Han dared not delay, and immediately said on the radio: "Ouyang Ping!"

"Here!"

"You take the third group to stay and guard the entrance. Don't let the bugs attack. I will let the warship assist you!"

"Yes!"

"Also, just in case, you can place explosives at the entrance of the cave. Once an extreme situation occurs, I authorize you to blow up the entrance. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Understand!"

"Okay, carry the wounded, and the others follow me!" After saying that, he led the team to the depths of the cave.

After walking a distance into the cave, there were obvious traces of repair and chiseling on the cave wall. After walking a distance, a dim light appeared on the top of the cave!

At this point, there is no natural cave at all. The cave wall is all poured with concrete. Probably to rush the work, the wall is extremely rough. Touching it with your hand, it rubs your hand blankly.

Ye Han turned off the night vision goggles and whispered to Gu Cheng: "There is still electricity, the underground city should be fine, we still have time, we will definitely make it."

Gu Cheng's mood also improved a lot, but he still dared not be too optimistic: "I hope so."

"Don't worry." Ye Han comforted.

Gu Cheng pulled the corner of his mouth and said nothing, and the team returned to silence.

In a blink of an eye, more than ten minutes passed, and various signs began to appear on the wall. This is a sign of approaching the underground city!

However, at this time, Xiao Yuan, who was walking in front, suddenly raised his fist to his shoulder. Seeing this action, the soldiers stopped at the same time, and the scientific expedition team members also subconsciously stopped. Only one scientific expedition team member who didn't know what was going on took two more steps before realizing that something was wrong and stopped in doubt.

Xiao Yuan immediately pointed his rifle forward: "Captain, there are several corpses ahead!"

Ye Han immediately replied: "Search forward!"

Xiao Yuan made a forward gesture, and the soldiers advanced with their guns, and soon passed the corpses. After confirming that there was no danger behind the corpses, Xiao Yuan whispered on the radio: "Safe!"

Ye Han made a gesture to the soldiers around him, and a group of people immediately rushed to the corpses.

All the corpses were very broken, exactly the same as the corpses that were gnawed by giant insects on the road, but they were not gnawed cleanly, and there was still a lot of meat left on the bones, which roughly showed the appearance of people.

Complete corpses and real white bones don't look that scary, only this kind of broken corpse looks the most terrifying.

The soldiers have been fighting against insect swarms and aliens for many years, and they don't feel much, but the scientific expedition team members are different. Many people are in close contact with corpses for the first time, and they are real corpses. Such a scene made them nauseous and almost vomited.

Ye Han frowned and said, "Bite from insects?"

The military doctor replied, "Yes!"

Ye Han's mind buzzed. This was a big problem. How could there be giant insects here?

From the situation of the corpses, there were not many giant insects, so Ye Han was not very worried, but the entrance to the underground city was intact, and there were several corpses in the place where he was about to enter the underground city. Doesn't it mean that the giant insects have entered the underground city?

This is not good news.

Ye Han thought for a while and said, "How long has it been?"

The military doctor shook his head and said, "It's hard to say the exact time, but the temperature in the cave is relatively low. I think it's about ten days, and it shouldn't be more than half a month."

Here, deep underground, the temperature is relatively constant, and the highest does not exceed five degrees above zero, so some traces on the corpses have been preserved until now. If they were on the surface, these corpses would have been highly... No, they should have been gnawed into bones by giant insects a long time ago.

Ye Han looked deep into the passage: "It's about the same time as what was said above, something must have happened down there!"

Gu Cheng was shocked: "Captain Ye, what should we do?"

"It should be fine." Ye Han gritted his teeth and said, "It's only half a month in total. As long as the operating room is still there, it should be usable after disinfection and cleaning!"

While speaking, he looked at the military doctor.

The military doctor agreed: "It should be fine." After saying that, he added in his heart that as long as the operating room is not damaged.

Gu Cheng had a lot to say, but he didn't know what to say.

Ye Han looked at the time: "There is still a little time, we must speed up, and slow down after entering the city, and move forward!"

The team set off immediately, and the soldiers automatically surrounded the scientific expedition team and protected all the scientific expedition members.

While marching, the military doctor came to Ye Han and whispered: "Captain, something is wrong."

"What's wrong?" Ye Han asked calmly.

The military doctor said: "Although these bodies have been bitten by giant insects, judging from the remaining tissues, they should not have been bitten to death by insects.

Ye Han paused and immediately pretended to be calm: "Are you sure?"

"Yes." The military doctor said very confidently.

Ye Han was very surprised: "How did you judge?"

The military doctor explained: "It is mainly the cross-section of the wound. Giant insects do not have the habit of biting to death before eating. They tear the wounds alive. The wounds left behind have life reactions, but the cross-sections of the wounds of these bodies do not have it."

"What reaction?" Ye Han asked in surprise.

"Life, survival and living!" The military doctor said, "It means that the wounds on living things turn to both sides. There is no such phenomenon after death."

Ye Han suddenly realized: "I understand, then did you find the cause of their death?"

"I found half of the wound, and the bones in the wound were all broken. It seems to be a gunshot."

Ye Han's pupils shrank: "Are you sure?"

"I'm not sure, but I think it looks like it. "

Xiao Yuan, who had been listening, couldn't help but interrupt: "What happened here?"

Ye Han's heart was in turmoil: "I want to know too!"

At this time, Xiao Yuan saw a distance sign on the wall and immediately reminded: "Another hundred meters to enter the city!"

"Got it!" Ye Han gripped the rifle tightly, "Everyone pay attention, search forward, everyone prepare to fight!" (Tianjin Novel Network)
