Chapter 288: The Gate of Hell

Hell, dragon, demon... Everything Prasad said sounds too incredible, but looking at his two broken legs makes people have to believe everything he said.

Balma, Sharma and others all know that Prasad is one of the most senior employees in the "company". He has a high status and is usually very prestigious. What he says is definitely not groundless.

If Prasad hadn't been experienced, someone else might not have had the chance to escape from the attacks of unknown creatures.

"Are those flying dragons still here? Why didn't we see me?" Sharma, the little bearded, asked tremblingly, twisting his head to look into the sky, fearing that the vicious flying dragon rushed down and twisted his head off.

"They only move at night, and as soon as the sun comes out during the day, these dragons get into the water," Prasad said gasping, "Now, I want to give you an important task - this is the main reason why you are summoned."

Balma nodded and squatted beside Prasad, looking at listening with a scrupulous look.

Prasad took a deep breath, pointed his finger at the foot of the mountain and said, "In the camp on the shore, there is a box of C4 explosives hidden. Before it is dark, you can go and find the explosives immediately, install the timing device and sink it to the bottom of the water to detonate."

"But, but there are still our team members and many staff members below. I don't know whether they are still dead. Maybe they are hiding in the underground palace waiting for rescue..." Sharma said hesitantly.

If a whole box of C4 explosives is detonated at the bottom of the water, I am afraid that the entire pool will be pushed upwards. No creature can survive this explosion. The shock wave alone will be enough to shake them all to death.

"I don't care about these things anymore. This is the secret order given to me by the above: if any accident occurs in the expedition team, they will immediately destroy the scene without leaving any traces of our activities." Prasad said firmly.

Sharma and the other players looked at each other.

Balma sorted out the equipment on his body and said, "You all heard it, execute the order!"

Sharma stood up, hesitated for a moment, looked back at Prasad lying there and said, "Do you want us to leave someone here with you?"

"No, it's important to carry out the mission! Hurry up, the sun is about to set." Prasad's expression was very firm.

Balma and others quickly rushed to the foot of the mountain, and found the box of C4 explosives in the camp Prasad said. Balma set the timer and put it into the explosive box, then sealed the explosives with a waterproof bag. The two carried the explosive boxes to the edge of the pond and threw them into the bottom of the water.

Watching the explosive box sink quickly to the bottom of the water, Balma looked at his watch, "The explosion occurred in 15 minutes, everyone took away everything in the camp and evacuated immediately!"

Fortunately, most of the equipment and equipment in the camp had been taken down by the exploration team, and the remaining six people were enough to take away all the items.

As for the excavator in the water, perhaps the explosion shock wave will cause the pool to collapse, and the excavator will be buried deep under the water - who knows, they are not able to move such a heavy thing, not to mention that after listening to Prasad's statement, no one dares to enter the water no matter how brave the Gurkha mercenaries are.

The group returned to the place just now with the camp things. Sherpa and his teammates were about to carry Prasad to retreat on a stretcher.

Prasad said with a serious expression: "Wait a minute."

Balma knew that Prasad had to see the explosion with his own eyes before leaving.

After 2 minutes, everyone felt that the land under their feet suddenly swayed, and waves of water more than ten meters high suddenly popped up in the pool. Although they could not hear the sound, they knew that the explosion under the water must be very amazing.

Prasad nodded. Such an explosion is enough to destroy everything under the water. The so-called gate of hell should have been shaken down.

"Let's go, go back." Prasad said tiredly.

...

After listening to the "confession" of the bearded Sharma, everyone looked at each other.

Zi Yang and Su Rui have been to the bottom of the water and saw the rocky scene at the bottom of the water. Unexpectedly, this strange scene was caused by an explosion.

But Prasad made a mistake. The explosion just blew the bottom of the water, but it did not seal the hole, the pool did not collapse, and the excavator was still there.

It seems that Prasad's mission has failed.

"After you rescued Prasad, have you ever returned to Qinhan Village?" Su Rui asked.

"No - at least we have never come back, so I don't know if the others have come." The bearded Sharma looked at Su Rui, Zi Yang, and Jin Guoqiang.

"Dear brothers and sisters, I have told you all that I know. Can you let me go now?"

"You can't let you go yet. You must stay with us before we leave here." Jin Guoqiang said coldly.

Sharma immediately became depressed and his head drooped listlessly.

Su Rui thought for a while and asked Sharma: "There is another thing to ask you. Prasad said that the exploration team found an underground palace under the pool, which was used by them for the current outpost. Have he talked about this outpost in detail?"

Sharma thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Prasad has never mentioned anything else, probably he hasn't gone down, so I don't know what it looks like below. I think it's that little Chen talking nonsense? How could there be a palace under such a deep water?"

"Captain, Zi Yang, I'll discuss something with you."

Su Rui called Zi Yang and Jin Guoqiang to another room and said quietly, "There is no doubt that there is a larger underground cavity in the waterway we discovered, which is likely to be a palace-like tomb."

"Is this unlikely? Who has the ability to build a palace under such deep water? I think this should be an exaggerated rhetoric of that young man?" Zi Yang said, touching his chin. Sharma explained a lot of things in a long and long way, and probably only a genius beauty like Su Rui with a strong memory can remember all the details.

Su Rui shook his head and said, "I don't think this is said casually. It can be heard that those people who came to explore are professional technicians. Words like 'underground palace' will not be used casually. And according to my observation, there are many traces of human resources under this blue hole."

Zi Yang scratched his head. In terms of observation, he really couldn't refute Su Rui. It was already very difficult for him to just breathe under the water, and he had no intention of observing the surroundings. Moreover, with his vulgar knowledge, he probably could not see any tricks of concentration.

Jin Guoqiang frowned and said, "Will the underground palace they mentioned are the places where you discovered the bodies of the Gurkha cavalry before?"

Su Rui shook his head: "It's unlikely. First, the space is not large enough, and second, there are only the corpses of these two Gurkha cavalry inside. The exploration team plus the other two Gurkha mercenaries, and a large number of instruments and equipment. These were not seen inside."

Zi Yang nodded: "Well, whether there is an underground palace can only be known if it is left into the waterway. However, our oxygen cylinders have been used up and there is no way to dive anymore. It seems that we can only give up."

Although he said he gave up, Zi Yang had no regrets on his face, and he felt a little relaxed.

Su Rui pondered for a moment and said, "It may not be possible. Do you still remember our two nanocloths? I checked it and the basic functions are still normal. We can still use it to get into the water."

"But the oxygen cylinder on the nanocloth has been used up." Zi Yang said with a frown. In order to avoid diving again, he was racking his brains.

Su Rui smiled and said, "No matter who gave these two clothes to the two Gurkha mercenaries, they obviously did not fully grasp the function of the nanocloth. Although the oxygen cylinder has been used up, there are still redundant gases in the structure and organization of the nanocloth. They are set up for safety guarantees to cope with special circumstances. Specific instructions are required to activate this function. These gases are almost enough for me to dive once - if I am fast enough."

Zi Yang has no advice this time, and he looks at Jin Guoqiang as if he is asking for help. You are always saying something.

Jin Guoqiang asked her: "If there is an underground palace, it will definitely be inside the waterway. Are you sure the gas inside is enough to last until you come back?"

Su Rui said with a serious expression: "So this time I will go down alone and bring two wetsuits with me at the same time. If one piece of gas is used up, I will replace it with another piece in the cave below to return."

"Don't forget, there is a 'gray shadow' inside - that, where is that flying dragon!?" Zi Yang heard that Su Rui was going to go into the water alone, so she started stuttering in a hurry.

"Balma and the others have created such a big explosion below. I guess those gray shadows should have been wiped out." Looking at Zi Yang's hesitant look, Su Rui comforted him:

"Don't worry, I decided to do this after careful consideration. There are not hells and demons below. It is very likely to be an ancient tomb, because the sealed underwater environment creates an independent ecosystem. These gray shadows are not flying dragons, but should be a mutated underwater creature. After the explosion, the chance of survival is slim. We have been here for a few days, but no strange creatures appear."

Jin Guoqiang looked at her with suspicion: "I am an atheist, I don't believe in hell demons, but I don't understand scientific matters very much. Can you confirm that your judgment is correct?"

Su Rui nodded: "I believe in science!"

Seeing that Jin Guoqiang was about to be convinced by her, Zi Yang shook his head like a rattle: "Wait a minute, let's not rush to draw conclusions. You can't just make decisions on such a dangerous thing - how about we shout everyone together to raise our hands to vote?"

Jin Guoqiang frowned: "This matter involves Wang Yangming, Professor Zhang, Ye Zhiqiu and Xiaoli don't know the interests here. Do you think they can make the correct judgment?"

Zi Yang scratched his head. It was obvious that Jin Guoqiang had already agreed to Su Rui's decision by default. The situation is now 2:1.

Su Rui looked at Zi Yang with a smile: "Do you have a better solution?"

Zi Yang, who was forced into a "desperate situation", came up with a wonderful note: "Or, let's decide if we can't make a lot, okay?"

Jin Guoqiang couldn't help but shook his head: "How about this, let's not rush to decide on this matter. It's too late now. Let's take a break first and discuss what to do tomorrow."

"Okay, this idea is reliable! Su Rui, what do you think?" Zi Yang looked at Su Rui as if he wanted to sleep. If he had a nap, the stubborn Su Rui might change his mind.

Su Rui nodded, "This is OK."

Seeing Zi Yang, Su Rui and Jin Guoqiang come out of the inner room, Lao Wang asked puzzledly: "What are you talking about in there? As a member of the team, I ask you to respect my right to know!"

"You're the one who has a lot of things!" Zi Yang glanced at him.

"It's already late at night, everyone is busy for a day, so let's get off early." Su Rui said.

"Zi Yang, Xiao Hei, I, Lao Wang, the four of us take turns to stand guard, each of us for one hour." Jin Guoqiang arranged.

"Me, where is me?" Brother Xiaosha asked Jin Guoqiang tremblingly. After watching the "performance" of the special forces captain yesterday, he was quite afraid of this "ruthless" black-faced man who "killed without blinking" in his heart.

"Forget it." Jin Guoqiang didn't even look at him. He still didn't trust Brother Xiaosha in his heart.

After everything was arranged, Zi Yang began the first round of duty. Everyone else fell asleep in the house.

After this thrilling day, Zi Yang was indeed sleepy and tired. She sat in the yard with her eyelids and kept fighting. However, the heavy responsibility was on her shoulders and she didn't dare to sleep, so she had to keep twisting her thighs to keep herself awake.

After finally staying up until Xiao Hei came to change shifts, Zi Yang crawled into the tent and fell asleep in a drowsy way.

Early the next morning, I heard a noisy sound outside. Zi Yang came out of the tent with sleepy eyes and saw Xiaoli screaming anxiously, Lao Wang lowered his head and looked ashamed.

"What's wrong?" Zi Yang asked.

"Sister Su Rui, no, I'm gone. When I got up in the morning, I found that she was not in the tent." Xiaoli said in a crying voice.

"When did it disappear?" Zi Yang asked anxiously.

"It should be in the early morning," Jin Guoqiang said with a gloomy face: "I ordered the number of people when I changed shifts, and she was still there at that time."

Everyone looked at Lao Wang together, and according to the arrangement, he was the last round of duty.

"I, I don't know, I am too sleepy, I accidentally got confused..." Lao Wang lowered his head and stuttered. It seemed that this kid had slept a lot while on duty.

"You, you pig's head, you don't know if such a big man is gone!" Xiaoli said stomping her feet.

"Have you found it in the village?" Zi Yang looked at Wang Juan with his eyes.

If Su Rui is nearby, Wang Juan should be able to sense it.

Wang Juan shook her head.

"I have found it near me, but there is no figure of Su Rui - where will she go? What did you discuss last night?" Brother Xiaosha looked at Zi Yang and asked with a sad and angry look on his face.

Zi Yang was suddenly stunned as if he was struck by lightning. He knew why Su Rui disappeared.
