Chapter 447: Explosion

Following the bottomless cave and echoing continuously, Ye Lan's expression became more and more serious.

He hadn't encountered anything difficult to deal with, but simply, this scene put a lot of psychological pressure on him.

It was similar to the feeling of claustrophobia, getting deeper, darker, and quieter.

It was like a person was separated from the whole world, especially when alone, which maximized this discomfort.

But it was actually okay for Ye Lan. After all, his own strength was extremely strong. As the saying goes, all fear comes from insufficient firepower, which is the truth.

But as he descended deeper and deeper, it became quieter and quieter in all directions, and even Ye Lan felt a little pressure.

Just like a deep-sea diver. Ye Lan raised his head from time to time to take a look, and there was only a small hole filled with white light left at the entrance of the cave.

Bang!

The hook gun hit the rock layer steadily again, and after a few echoes, Ye Lan finally stepped steadily on the ground.

Is it the end?

Ye Lan frowned slightly and looked around.

Obviously, he didn't see anyone here.

He took out the instrument that Luo Chou had given him and looked at it. The current location was about 300 meters underground.

If I remember correctly, this group of people completely lost contact with the camp on the ground after reaching this distance!

Taking off the headband flashlight and turning it into a handheld one, Ye Lan once again looked at the situation here.

A large excavator full of technology was abandoned here. A large space has been opened up on this 300-meter layer, with a length and width of about 10 meters each, forming a medium-sized space of about 100 square meters in total.

The flashlight was pointed directly at the ground, and soon, Ye Lan found a brand new hole on the ground of this layer.

They were still going down. I don't know why, it seems that after a simple repair on this layer, they gave up the large excavator and used multiple small handheld devices to continue digging down.

What was exposed on the ground was a small hole with a plane of less than two square meters.

"Continue to go deeper from this hole..." Ye Lan murmured, seeing the unreasonableness of this scene.

Boom! !

But before he could think about it, a huge explosion sounded from the depths of the cave entrance, so that the floor where Ye Lan was located was shaking like an earthquake.

Ye Lan's expression changed slightly, and he put the flashlight back on his helmet, fired the hook gun, and swung to the depths again.

During the movement of dozens of meters, Ye Lan's body had been scratched several times in succession. But this was not a technical problem, but the uneven terrain.

It seemed that from here on, the team led by Xu Lezhang was no longer moving downwards only by digging.

It was like...

"Explosion?"

Ye Lan frowned, hanging in the cave, confirmed this, and tried to simulate the replay.

"When digging down to here, some extremely hard rock blocked the way."

"But..." Ye Lan was a little worried:

"Even in this situation, Xu Lezhang still did not try to lead the team to evacuate, but chose the risky fixed-point blasting?"

Even if it was Xu Lezhang's style, this was already abnormal!

This group of people can accurately blast at a fixed point without destroying the geological structure and causing collapse, which shows that they can think rationally. But this is strange. If they can think rationally, why don’t they try to establish contact with the camp above?

Especially Xu Lezhang and Arthur, both of their communicators should be able to contact themselves directly.

Boom!

Another explosion sounded under his feet, and Ye Lan’s expression changed again. He couldn’t help but worry more deeply, and once again echoed deep into the depths.

The continuous explosions have caused the four directions to shake slightly. Ye Lan couldn’t help but speed up, so as not to have a few more explosions to truly destroy the geological structure and bury everyone below.

Bang!

In the chain echo of the hook gun, there was finally light below, which was the light of dozens of flashlights intertwined.

From a distance, Ye Lan heard Xu Lezhang’s loud voice from a high place.

"Each team should count the number of people! No one can be left behind!"

"Our slogan is, never abandon! Never give up!"

Ye Lan:...

Although they have not met yet, Ye Lan suddenly felt relieved when he heard this funny voice and some inexplicable and outrageous words...

How to say it? The louder Xu Lezhang's voice is, the more controllable the situation is.

Bang!

The second time he stepped on the ground, Ye Lan arrived at the end of the deep pit.

The first time he stepped on the ground, Ye Lan frowned.

The scene here is completely different from any scene he imagined. The front team of more than 50 people is in neat formation, not one less, full of order.

At the same time, they are all in a hurry, some are busy and exhausted, some are discussing something in groups of three or five, and Xu Lezhang and Arthur are also commanding their teams to come and go.

This doesn't look like a team that has encountered a strange situation, suffered hardships or is in a state of confusion.

Ye Lan looked around, this layer has been basically opened up, it seems that this group of teams have already planned to set up camp here for the second round.

Based on this floor, a space of about 100 square meters was opened up in all directions. More than 50 people were responsible for different tasks, setting up camp and keeping watch here.

Xu Lezhang was whispering with Arthur, holding an electronic compass in his hand to identify the direction.

It seemed that after a brief negotiation, with Arthur's approval, Xu Lezhang pointed to one side and gave an order.

"That direction! Keep digging for a hundred meters!"

Ye Lan frowned.

What on earth is going on?

However, the most comforting thing is that no one is hurt.

After confirming that there is indeed no abnormal danger around, Ye Lan strode forward and patted Xu Lezhang on the shoulder.

"Fuck!"

Unexpectedly, in the moment of patting his shoulder, Xu Lezhang shuddered and performed a beautiful forward roll on the spot, and then hurriedly looked around vigilantly.

Then, there was a roar that resounded throughout the entire space.

"Everyone be careful of falling rocks!"

Ye Lan:?

However, after all, he already had rich experience in surviving in the wasteland, and Ye Lan reacted quickly.

Xu Lezhang's reaction was...feeling something patting his shoulder, but not seeing himself?

Plop!

Suddenly a person fell to the ground, and there was a loud noise, and everyone on the entire floor looked over.

Normally, with so many people together, the noise is so loud that the sound of a person falling down cannot be so clear. But the problem is that the person's hands were full of instruments, and they fell all over the ground at once, which made him particularly eye-catching.

Ye Lan, who was faster than Xu Lezhang, quickly flashed over and half-crouched to observe.

Soon, Ye Lan looked a little confused.

This fainted guy... has no external injuries, and his vital signs are also fine.

But why is his whole body so stiff, lying on the ground, and shivering as if he was seriously ill?

It's like... it's like...

"Get out of the way!" Xu Lezhang yelled, ran over with big strides, took off his coat, and put it on the person who fainted on the ground.

After taking off his coat, he was left with only a short-sleeved shirt, and he was shivering.

He carried the person on the ground and gave instructions.

"Make the bonfire bigger!"

Bonfire?

Hearing this word, Ye Lan was a little confused, and then he noticed that there were many bonfires of different sizes in the camp on this level.

Huh?

Everyone's equipment is all autumn combat uniforms. In terms of warmth retention, it is not bad to withstand the winter, but how...

Ye Lan finally knew what the man was shaking like.

It turned out that he was freezing to death!

Sure enough, Xu Lezhang immediately urged him after putting him next to the bonfire.

"Speed ​​up! Dig faster! Brothers can't hold on any longer, how long will it take?"

Ye Lan looked in the direction, and this level of space had been penetrated horizontally for about a hundred meters, and the shouting over there was full of echoes.

"Almost--but we still need to calibrate and analyze the geological structure. It may be difficult to reach the top of the mountain!"

"Damn it!" Xu Lezhang cursed, took out his pocket, but didn't take out anything, and stretched out his hand to tap in the air.

"Damn! Why is there no signal!"

Looking at this scene, Ye Lan's brows wrinkled unconsciously.

Whose problem is it?

Xu Lezhang pressed the buttons in the air for a while, and then said there was no signal.

Finally, Xu Lezhang was like a deflated ball, revealing a bad expression. He threw his hands, looked up to the sky and roared with great momentum:

"God of War, save me--!"
