The patterns on the stone wall seemed to come alive, with blue light flowing and a low buzzing sound that made people's scalps tingle.
The ground began to shake slightly, and the scattered metal fragments also trembled, making a crisp tinkling sound, like a strange death concerto.
"Fuck! What the hell is this!" Leo screamed and subconsciously wanted to step back.
"Hold on!" Captain Mo shouted. With his experience, he immediately realized that something was wrong. "Everyone, be on guard!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the pattern on the stone wall shone brightly, and a blue beam of light suddenly shot out and headed straight for Captain Mo.
"Captain!" Ye Ling exclaimed and subconsciously wanted to rush forward, but was stopped by Duan Yu.
"Don't be impulsive!" Duan Yu calmly analyzed the situation, his eyes fixed on the blue light. "This thing is too fast, you can't dodge it!"
In the blink of an eye, the blue light was already in front of Captain Mo.
At the critical moment, Duan Yu controlled his mecha and slammed Captain Mo away.
The blue light passed by Captain Mo's mecha, leaving a deep scorch mark on the ground.
"That was close!" Leo took a breath. At that moment, he seemed to see the god of death waving at them.
"This place is very weird!" Captain Mo patted his chest with lingering fear. If Duan Yu had not reacted quickly, he would probably have been dead.
"What should we do now?" Kassa's voice trembled slightly. She held the detector tightly in her hand, her face a little pale.
Just when everyone was at a loss, Ye Ling's eyes fell on the strange symbols on the wall.
When she was studying alien civilizations before, she seemed to have seen similar symbols somewhere...
"Wait!" Ye Ling suddenly said, "I remember!"
Everyone immediately turned their attention to her.
"These symbols...are the activation devices of some kind of mechanism!" Ye Ling pointed at the symbols on the wall and said with certainty, "If I'm not mistaken, the place we are in now is a huge trap!"
"A trap?!" Everyone was shocked.
"Then what should we do?" Lucy's voice was filled with tears, and she was about to collapse.
Ye Ling carefully observed the surrounding environment, the walls, the ground, the ceiling...
She took in all the details.
Suddenly, her eyes locked on an inconspicuous stone slab on the ground.
"Found it!" Ye Ling pointed at the stone slab, her tone filled with excitement. "This is the control switch of the mechanism!"
She walked quickly to the stone slab, took a deep breath, and pressed it down hard.
Rumble——
After a violent tremor, a huge deep pit appeared in front of them, with dangerous energy light flashing at the bottom of the pit.
There is no other road around, this...
The corners of Ye Ling's mouth rose slightly, "It seems that this is the only way for us to go."
The deep pit was dark, like the bloody mouth of a giant beast, emitting a heart-pounding breath.
Ye Ling took the lead and jumped in in a mecha.
Duan Yu followed closely behind, and the others followed suit.
If this had happened in the past, how could Ye Ling dare to be so reckless?
But since she got the core of the ancient mecha, she felt like she was floating on air and her fighting power was at full capacity!
As soon as he landed, the surrounding stone walls lit up with a strange red light.
"Oh my god, here it comes again!" Leo screamed, and before he finished his words, countless laser beams shot out from all directions, interweaving into a web of death.
"Activate the shield!" Ye Ling gave an order, and the energy shield on the surface of the mecha opened instantly, blocking the dense rays.
"Everyone follow me!" She skillfully controlled the mecha and shuttled through the dense rays, which was really cool.
Duan Yu assisted her and guided the others to take cover with calm instructions.
"Here! It's safe here!" Ye Ling's voice sounded in the communication channel with a hint of excitement.
Stimulate!
So exciting!
After dodging the laser array, Captain Mo pointed to a wider passage ahead and waved his hand, "Go this way!"
"Wait!" Ye Ling stopped him. "This road looks too easy. I feel like there's something fishy going on." She carefully observed the surroundings and finally pointed to another narrow and dusty passage. "Go this way."
"Xiao Ye, are you sure? This road doesn't look safe." Captain Mo frowned. Experience told him that the more conspicuous a place is, the safer it is. This inconspicuous road is even more dangerous.
"Believe me!" Ye Ling said in a firm tone. What a joke! She is a woman with the aura of the protagonist!
Seeing the two of them deadlocked, Kassa quickly stepped in to smooth things over: "How about we use the detector to scan first?"
The detector showed that the energy in the wide channel was fluctuating violently, which was obviously dangerous.
Captain Mo reluctantly agreed to take the path Ye Ling had chosen, muttering as he walked: "Young people nowadays are really..."
Under Ye Ling's leadership, they avoided several traps without any danger and finally heard a faint distress signal.
"Great! Found it!" Lucy shouted excitedly.
But Ye Ling felt a little uneasy. The air around them seemed to be frozen, and an inexplicable sense of oppression enveloped them.
She gripped the joystick tightly and whispered, "Be careful, I feel..."
Suddenly, Duan Yu grabbed her arm and pulled her behind him.
"Shh—" He made a gesture to keep quiet, his eyes fixed on the dark corner in front of him.
There, something is stirring...
