"Be careful, there may be danger inside." Xiao Yi warned, holding the high-frequency vibration dagger tightly in his hand.
Description of the interior of the ruins
They entered the ruins, a dark and damp passage filled with a lingering smell of decay. The walls were covered with mysterious murals depicting falling stars, battles between giants and monsters, and mysterious sacrificial rituals.
"This...this is incredible!" Lin Xiao exclaimed, with a hint of fear in her voice.
Xiao Yi did not answer. His eyes were attracted by a mural. On the mural, a giant was holding a bronze mask and standing in front of a pyramid-shaped building. In the sky was the falling meteor.
Analysis of the mural content
"Could this be related to the zombie mutation?" Lin Xiao said softly, with a hint of fear in his voice.
Xiao Yi did not answer, his gaze still fixed on the mural. The giant in the mural was holding a bronze mask engraved with strange symbols, exactly the same as those at the entrance to the ruins.
"Look here." Xiao Yi pointed to a corner of the mural, which depicted a group of humans led by a giant, performing some kind of mysterious sacrificial ritual.
"These humans...what are they doing?" Lin Xiao asked, with a hint of uneasiness in her voice.
Xiao Yi took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner shock. "They are performing a sacrificial ritual, perhaps... perhaps it is related to the zombie mutation."
Character interaction and psychological description
"Captain, what should we do?" Lin Xiao asked, with a hint of fear in her voice.
Xiao Yi did not answer, his heart was full of contradictions and struggles. He knew that this relic might hide the secret of zombie mutation, but it might also hide greater dangers.
"We must continue exploring and find the truth." Xiao Yi finally said, with a hint of determination in his voice.
In-depth exploration of the ruins
As they continued to go deeper into the ruins, the passages became narrower and narrower, and the murals on the walls became more and more bizarre. The monsters depicted in the murals were strikingly similar to zombies, and the scenes of sacrificial rituals became increasingly bloody.
"Captain, I...I'm a little scared." Lin Xiao said softly, with a hint of trembling in her voice.
Xiao Yi held her hand and gave her a little comfort. "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Discover mysterious items
Suddenly, a huge stone chamber appeared at the end of the passage. In the center of the chamber stood a bronze altar, and on the altar lay a bronze mask that was exactly the same as the mask in the mural.
"This...this is the mask in the mural!" Lin Xiao exclaimed, with a hint of shock in her voice.
Xiao Yi walked forward and looked at the mask carefully. The mask was engraved with strange symbols and emitted a strange light.
"Be careful, don't touch it!" Xiao Yi shouted suddenly, but it was too late.
Lin Xiao's hand had already touched the mask. In an instant, the entire stone chamber began to shake violently, and the murals on the wall emitted a strange light.
Changes in the Stone Chamber
"Run!" Xiao Yi shouted, pulling Lin Xiao back quickly.
The ceiling of the stone chamber began to collapse, and huge rocks fell one after another. They ran desperately, finally rushed out of the stone chamber and returned to the passage.
"What...what is going on?" Lin Xiao asked breathlessly, with a hint of fear in her voice.
Xiao Yi did not answer, his heart was filled with doubts and uneasiness. He knew that there was a huge secret hidden in this relic, and this secret might be closely related to the mutation of the zombies.
The suspense at the end
Just as they were about to leave the ruins, a strange sound suddenly came from the distance. It didn't sound like the roar of a zombie, but a more eerie sound.
"What is that?" Lin Xiao asked, her voice full of fear.
Xiao Yi gripped the dagger in his hand tightly. He knew that a new threat was approaching. They must be prepared to meet the unknown challenge.
Xiao Yi, Lin Yue, Li Gang, and Zhao Feng have long fought side by side in this apocalyptic chaos. Hearing that an ancient ruin might hold clues to solving the zombie crisis, they set foot in this mysterious land. The passageway is deep and serene, blurring the lines between time and space. Armed with simple yet sturdy weapons, the four men advance nervously, each step a testament to the unknown dangers and hopes. Occasionally, eerie lights flicker along the sides of the passage, as if ancient spirits are watching their intrusion.
Continuing deeper into the passage, they finally arrived at a vast stone chamber. An ancient and mysterious atmosphere permeated the chamber. A faint, strange light flickered on the walls, as if countless pairs of dormant eyes had been gently awakened by their arrival. In the center of the chamber stood a peculiarly shaped bronze statue. Its face bore a striking resemblance to the bronze figures unearthed from Sanxingdui. Its bulging eyes seemed to penetrate the mysteries of the universe, and its expression was mysterious and solemn, revealing a majesty otherworldly that instilled awe in its viewers.
The statue's base was densely engraved with text. These words snaked and twisted, like the tracks left by a living creature crawling across the stone. Although Xiao Yi and the others had limited knowledge of ancient characters, they struggled to decipher them, relying on the few remaining materials and knowledge. Lin Yue frowned, clutching a worn archaeological notebook tightly, which contained clues to the deciphering of the ancient characters. Li Gang gestured with his dagger, trying to find inspiration from the shapes of the characters. Zhao Feng kept a vigilant eye on his surroundings, fearing any sudden danger would interrupt their deciphering.
It turns out the Sanxingdui civilization wasn't native to Earth, but rather an offshoot of a more advanced civilization from a distant galaxy. In the distant past, when the universe was still in its infancy, they piloted starships shimmering with mysterious light, traversing the endless galaxy and descending upon Earth. Possessing technology and wisdom beyond human comprehension at the time, they were like gods descended. They left behind countless mysterious relics and technologies, sealed in specific locations, becoming the seeds that would change the fate of our planet. These seals were meticulously designed to activate only under specific celestial events, like a dormant beast awaiting its awakening.
