TRSFTATTYA Chapter 18

They are all dead!

Xie Lianhuan’s words instantly caused Chen Wenjin’s emotions to collapse, and tears flowed down her face.

Most of the entire archaeology team had disappeared.

She still remembered how spirited they all looked when they arrived, but now they had all sunk to the bottom of the lake without a trace.

As the leader, Chen Wenjin felt deeply guilty and wept bitterly.

Xie Lianhuan had no choice but to help her up and back to the tent.

Back in the tent, Chen Wenjin’s emotions were still extremely low.

Xie Lianhuan didn’t know how to comfort her, so he silently stayed by Chen Wenjin’s side…

…

Because no one can stay in the water for that long.

At dinner, the remaining members of the archaeology team were in a strange and depressed atmosphere.

Unexpectedly, Chen Wenjin was the first to speak, “Comrades, I know everyone is saddened by the disappearance of Comrade Su Ze and the others. Now, anyone who wants to withdraw can withdraw, and I will arrange for you to be sent back.”

As soon as she finished speaking, no one made a sound.

Chen Wenjin knew that the mission was not completed, so she had to pull herself together and continue on the road.

She glanced at the remaining seven people and slowly said, “Archaeological work is always accompanied by accidents. I think everyone who chose the archaeology profession knew this very well!”

As she spoke, Chen Wenjin reached out her hand, and the remaining seven archaeologists also put their hands on top of hers.

“Guarantee to complete the mission!”

The crowd shouted out the repression in their hearts, and instantly felt much better.

People of this era, no matter what their temperament, have one thing in common, that is, a strong sense of honor.

Moreover, they also knew that as long as they successfully completed this mission, their lives would be different from then on. Even if they did nothing for the rest of their lives, they would be above others…

Early the next morning, Chen Wenjin still arranged for the remaining people to look around the lake to see if any bodies had floated up.

But there was nothing, as if nothing had happened.

And Xie Lianhuan was seriously observing the terrain here…

If it was really like what Su Ze said, this was a rare fish scale Ao terrain. All the mountains were like fish scales, layer upon layer, and the mountain shapes were very similar.

As Su Ze said, a single fish scale Ao is not suitable for burying people, but it is completely different if there is a spring lake in the fish scale Ao.

“Captain.”

Xie Lianhuan looked at Chen Wenjin beside him and said, “Maybe we were wrong from the beginning.”

Xie Lianhuan said, “Take out the map given by the higher-ups.”

Chen Wenjin thought for a while, and still took out a Tian Tu map from her backpack. When she opened it, she saw a red dot on the Tian Tu map, which happened to be this lake in front of her.

Xie Lianhuan pointed to the point on the map and said, “Maybe it’s wrong to enter by water. We should enter by land.”

“But there are mountains everywhere, surrounded by stones. Where do we enter from?”

Chen Wenjin raised the question. Indeed, as she said, the terrain here is not like a hill at all. Tall and steep mountains stretch endlessly, and the mountains are huge and reach into the clouds. It is completely a dangerous landscape of mountains and rivers. The plants in the mountains are distributed very thickly, and even the cliffs between the mountains are dark green.

This place is in the depths of the Ten Thousand Mountains. In the past, when there were wars, bandits hid inside, and it was difficult for the army to attack.

Xie Lianhuan looked at the vast Ten Thousand Mountains, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said leisurely, “Let me try.”

Xie Lianhuan nodded…

…

When Su Ze saw everything around him clearly, he found himself in a cave.

[Ding, the host has completed the selection and obtained the Two-Finger Cave Exploration reward!]

The voice of the system came from his mind, and a smile could not help but appear on Su Ze’s face.

To master such a unique skill, even a talented person must start practicing from childhood, and the process is extremely difficult.

Su Ze was naturally overjoyed that he had obtained such a tomb raiding skill.

Huo Ling opened her eyes with some difficulty. The first thing she felt was pain, even breathing was painful. She didn’t know how long it took before she slowly adapted, and then other feelings gradually recovered.

Immediately, Huo Ling was filled with surprise. She and the archaeological team who went into the water should have been sure to die. Why were they awake now?

Could it be that this is the Netherworld Hell?

Huo Ling slowly breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that living and dying were no different…

“Woke up? Are you okay!”

Wait… it’s Su Ze’s voice!

Huo Ling suddenly became excited and turned her head to look. She saw a face like a knife in the light of the fire was looking at her.

Su Ze nodded: “No one died.”

Hearing Su Ze’s words, Huo Ling could clearly realize that this was not an illusion. They really didn’t die. After experiencing life and death, all kinds of emotions such as intense fear, hope, and worry began to be released.

Huo Ling didn’t know how to express it. Tears wanted to flow down, but she couldn’t help but smile.

After experiencing so many things alone, the intense panic in incomparable loneliness, the despair of brushing shoulders with survival, and then discovering that she was safe and sound, this kind of ecstasy can drive people crazy.

Huo Ling knew that all of this was because of the man in front of her. At first, she was only attracted by Su Ze’s good-looking appearance, but she didn’t expect this man to be so powerful. Her heart couldn’t help but flutter, and she impulsively kissed Su Ze on the face.

Zhang Qiling and Qi Yu also cast grateful glances: “Thank you.”

Su Ze smiled and said lightly, “It’s okay.”
