The distance of 130 kilometers took less than half an hour, and the dictator, Chen Yan and other rulers arrived at the entrance of the underground cave.
If the Gobi and desertified terrain had not affected their journey, their speed could have at least doubled if they were on a real road.
"Is this... the entrance to the cave?"
Chen Yan stood beside a deep-looking fissure in the Gobi Desert and asked with a suspicious look on his face.
This crack in the ground is about half a meter wide, and its length is difficult to describe.
Because it is very winding, it extends to the distance across the Gobi Desert at your feet.
Looking down along the gap, he didn't know whether it was because it was too deep or because there was not enough light inside. Even with Chen Yan's 90% gene unlocking degree and super vision ability, it was still difficult to see the situation inside clearly. He could only see darkness.
"It should be, at least based on the positioning results, it's right down here. It's unclear what kind of danger lies within, but since even the Marshal of the Knights of Embers wasn't confident enough to venture in alone, and instead deliberately lured me here after accumulating enough vitality, I imagine there must be something extraordinary inside.
The rest of you, stay here and don't go down. It's just the right place to guard the entrance. If anyone else tries to break in later, with your combined strength, you can handle anything except a Five-Star Ruler. If another Five-Star Ruler does come, remember not to forcefully stop them. There's no need to make unnecessary sacrifices."
The dictator gave simple instructions.
Chen Yan discovered that after becoming a sub-body, the dictator's personality was obviously affected.
Before becoming a sub-body, the dictator does not care about the life or death of anyone else.
Everyone in the Red Nation is consumable in the eyes of the dictator.
The only difference is the importance of different consumables.
After becoming a sub-body, the dictator not only has absolute obedience to himself as the main body, but also has a sense of companionship towards other sub-bodies.
Of course, in the eyes of the dictator, people without sub-bodies are still consumables...
"I'll lead the way. You should try to keep a certain distance from me. Just be able to sense my presence, but don't get too close. If the danger inside is truly beyond my ability to handle, you should retreat immediately."
The dictator simply gave Chen Yan some instructions, then jumped into the crack in the ground!
The width of half a meter is enough for a person to fall freely horizontally.
However, because I have no idea what is going on inside, I must try to slow down my falling speed by clinging to the rock walls on both sides while falling, so that I can respond in time if there is an emergency.
A few minutes after the dictator jumped into the crack, Chen Yan confirmed that the dictator's breath was becoming increasingly faint in his perception, and then he also jumped into the crack.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but the moment after jumping into the crack in the ground, Chen Yan felt that the temperature of his body seemed to drop a lot in an instant.
By supporting himself against the rock wall and controlling his falling speed, Chen Yan ensured that he always maintained a certain distance from the dictator, while silently calculating the specific depth of his fall in his mind.
I fell about three hundred meters, and suddenly the view in front of me became clear!
The originally narrow gap completely disappeared, replaced by a huge underground hole!
It is clearly a completely enclosed underground space, with no possibility of sunlight coming in, but on the four walls of this underground cave, it seems that algae that can emit light are growing!
Although the brightness of the light source is very ordinary, it is enough to illuminate the underground cavity clearly. Various strange and rugged stalactites are scattered throughout every corner of the underground cavity.
Chen Yan sensed carefully and confirmed that the dictator was still within his perception, so he calmed his mind and followed immediately.
The temperature inside this underground cave is extremely low. Judging from the feeling on the surface of the body, it has at least reached below zero.
But Chen Yan didn't have a very specific idea of how many degrees below zero it was, so he had no way of judging.
In addition to the algae emitting light on the walls of the cave on all four sides, the air in the underground cave was also not right.
Not only was the taste quite strange, but after taking a few deep breaths, Chen Yan found himself feeling a little dizzy.
It is difficult to describe how shocked Chen Yan was after feeling dizzy.
The gene unlocking degree has reached 90%, making him a genuine five-star ruler, just one step away from becoming a controller. Logically, he should be immune to all poisons, water and fire, but in this underground cave, he actually feels dizzy...
What is the composition of the air in this cave?
Without time to think about it, Chen Yan found that the dictator in his perception seemed to have sped up his pace, so he could only hurry to keep up.
A dark river suddenly appeared in front of me.
As we continued to move forward, the underground river became wider and wider.
Soon, the gurgling stream at the beginning turned into a river about four or five meters wide.
Chen Yan could not sense any breath of life in the river.
Not to mention fish, even the microorganisms that would normally be present seemed to be absent in this underground river...
Just as Chen Yan was about to study the situation of the underground river, the dictator in his perception suddenly stopped.
There was no fierce conflict of energy ahead, nor was there any sound of fighting.
After a slight hesitation, Chen Yan decided to go to the dictator's current location immediately.
Because he has sensed another powerful existence.
The opponent's aura is slightly weaker than the dictator's, but only to a limited extent. It should be the marshal of the Knights of Embers.
Since he did not deliberately hide his aura, Chen Yan could clearly sense the presence of the marshal.
What made Chen Yan a little confused was that the dictator's aura and the marshal's aura were very close, and the distance between them should not exceed three meters.
But the atmosphere on both sides was very peaceful. Not to mention conflict, even normal ups and downs did not occur.
Under the influence of doubt, Chen Yan quickened his pace, and after a while, the dictator appeared in his sight.
Next to the dictator stood a white man who was at least two meters and five meters tall and as strong as a mountain.
The two were standing in front of a huge rock, looking up at it.
With the appearance of Chen Yan, the two of them turned around almost at the same time.
The dictator said, "My companions had originally planned to hide in the dark to deal with any unexpected events. But I didn't expect... the actual situation would be so bizarre."
The white man nodded and said, "No one expected this. If we had known this would happen, we should have called the Chief of Life Oasis, the Executive Officer of Purifying Dawn, and the Lord of Dead Silence City together."
