Chapter 1610: The Residence of the Dead
"Revisiting the old place, do you have any special feelings?"
According to the attitude of a special guest, Fu Qian, who was walking behind, looked at Lisa and asked with a smile.
"Do you want to write another reflection?"
After this reminder, the only trace of emotion disappeared in an instant. Professor Lisa turned to look at Fu Qian and asked back with a fake smile.
Obviously, this sentence itself is enough to evoke some strong feelings.
The last time this person and the cast were on the spot to compare their scientific research experience, the scene is still fresh in my memory.
Even including the pain of writing the on-site composition.
"Not bad."
Even at this time, facing her proposal, Fu Qian was surprised and praised.
"I didn't expect you to find the benefits of timely summary for self-improvement so quickly. Since you insist, then as you say-"
"No need!"
Fu Qian's praise was interrupted in seconds, and seeing Lisa's appearance, his head began to hurt.
"Which direction should we go?"
Not wanting to dwell on this question any more, Professor Lisa took two steps at a time and walked straight out of the cave at the entrance while speaking, frowning and thinking about the next route of action.
Alas——
Facing this lack of awareness, Fu Qian sighed lightly and did not force it. He also came out of the cave and looked at both sides.
...
Just like the last time, it was still the magnificent, grand, and standard circle, surrounded by the dense fog in the giant pit.
All kinds of creations formed by the gathering of bones and dim light floated and wandered in it, appearing and disappearing from time to time.
The skull that Professor Lisa has been studying during this period was collected from it.
"Did we go clockwise last time?"
While observing this magnificent scene again, Fu Qian nodded slightly and confirmed the details of the previous scientific expedition.
"Yes, change direction this time? But in fact, we don't need to really go around again, as long as we find the right target."
Not knowing why Fu Qian asked this, Lisa confirmed that his memory was correct and tried to make suggestions.
"Change direction, good idea."
Without any objection, Fu Qian had already walked to the edge of the giant pit and looked around.
"There should be a way down here?"
...
Why did it suddenly become a way to go down again?
I didn't mean to change direction like this...
Only then did she realize what Fu Qian was looking at, and Professor Lisa sighed deeply at the inconsistency of this communication.
"What's wrong? Don't tell me that Linghui's gang has only been circling this ring tunnel for so many years."
As for her reaction, Fu Qian was the first to express surprise.
"That's not the case... It is said that they have explored to a considerable depth. In fact, this is one of the reasons why they are confident and ask us not to hunt at will."
Confirming that Fu Qian was not joking, Lisa quickly restrained her emotions and explained the situation she knew.
"These exposed structures on the edge are said to be ancient ruins of inestimable age. In addition to what we see, there are more buried below."
"They even speculate that even if it is further down the pit, it may still exist."
As she spoke, Lisa pointed to the depths of the mist, her expression serious.
Ancient ruins? They do look like it.
Looking along, Fu Qian did not comment for a while.
Just like the scene described in the last scientific expedition, the extremely standard ring in front of him is essentially the edge of a giant pit with an equally standard shape.
It's like an explosion with a very regular range, which cuts off a piece of the earth and reveals the structure below.
It is a layered building that is vaguely arranged in a regular pattern.
The depth of the hemisphere itself is already exaggerated. If there is still content below, the scale of the ruins can be imagined.
"So from what you said, Apocalypse has not yet conducted a deeper exploration like them?"
After some observation, Fu Qian asked again.
"No..."
When Lisa answered, her tone was actually a little ashamed.
"On the one hand, Linghui treated it like a treasure before, and it was very troublesome to apply for entry once, and we have only taken over for a few days."
"On the other hand, as each layer goes deeper, there will be stronger and stronger spiritual influences, and they are indeed more comfortable dealing with it."
There was also this matter, Fu Qian looked thoughtful.
"What kind of spiritual influence?"
"Slow thinking, life passing away, but not reflected in the body."
Lisa pointed to her head.
"Emotions will gradually disappear, and the will will fall into a kind of peace like a death invasion."
"Like them?"
Although Professor Lisa's description was only taken from other people's exploration experience, so it was a little abstract, but Fu Qian still listened carefully and pointed to the depths of the giant pit at the end.
"Indeed, it sounds very similar to them, which is why Linghui's people strongly oppose hunting."
"In their view, this is a pure creature that has achieved spiritual sublimation, just like the existence of the dead spirits in the underworld in mythology."
Fu Qian was naturally referring to those spirits and bone creations that went in and out of the fog with elegant and peaceful postures, and Lisa hesitated for a moment and agreed with his association.
"In short, this influence is very difficult to resist. Even Ling Hui's several actions were led by demigods."
"I understand. Now take me to the road you mentioned just now."
After understanding the dangers involved, Fu Qian showed admiration on his face and motioned for Lisa to set off very naturally.
"I only know the approximate location. If it doesn't work, I can just jump down."
Lisa reacted quickly this time, sighed and walked in front.
She obviously didn't think such danger could scare Apocalypse's new demigod.
…
"So why don't you jump down?"
After a moment, looking at the direction of Professor Lisa's finger, Fu Qian frowned and expressed doubt.
This was definitely not a slander, because after the latter's search, he was brought to the edge of the giant pit.
Even looking down from here, the place is just a crooked square boulder, with a piece cut off, and it doesn't look like a straight road.
"This is a relatively clear route explored by the people in Linghui. Going in, there will be a relatively long descending trail."
"I will go here last when I come back, because it is said that the structure below is like a maze. It is easy to get lost. It is not like a place for people."
It can be seen that Lisa really put a lot of thought into the subject during this period.
"Is that for them?"
Fu Qian gestured to the group of special creatures.
"It's hard to imagine they would need trails, although they are said to roam them."
Lisa shook her head, still answering fluently.
"Then it seems there is only one answer. This is where the dead live."
Before dealing with this, he also came to a conclusion seriously.
