Mou Xuan stopped and shone the high-intensity flashlight in his hand forward. The end of the cave was not a stone wall, but an archway that was flashing a faint blue light.
"Oh my god, what the hell is this?" Hunter Zhong widened his eyes, his tone full of surprise.
The arch exudes an ancient and mysterious atmosphere, as if it is a relic from ancient times, and a mysterious atmosphere shrouds the surroundings.
The team members looked at each other, excited and nervous. All this unknown stuff made their adrenaline surge.
"Wow! This is definitely a big discovery!" The explorers rubbed their hands excitedly, wishing they could rush in to find out what was going on.
"It's better to be careful." Mou Xuan reminded, approaching the arch cautiously and touching it lightly with his hand. A cold touch came over him, making him shiver involuntarily.
The archway slowly opened, revealing the passage behind it. The faint blue light became stronger, as if attracting them to enter.
"Brothers, it's time to explore!" The explorers took the lead and rushed into the passage.
The others followed closely behind, with Mou Xuan walking at the end, always keeping alert.
After entering the ruins, the view suddenly opens up and a huge space appears before everyone.
The walls were covered with all kinds of strange symbols, like some mysterious text. Broken stones and metal fragments were scattered on the ground, and the air was filled with a long-forgotten smell.
"Oh my, this place is a bit eerie..." Navigator Fu's voice trembled a little. He followed Hunter Zhong closely, afraid of falling behind.
"This symbol... I seem to have seen it somewhere..." Scientist Zhuo pushed his glasses and carefully observed the symbols on the wall, frowning as he tried hard to recall.
“This… could this be… is…” He suddenly stopped and his face turned pale.
"What is it?" Everyone looked at him, waiting for his answer.
Scientist Zhuo did not answer, but just kept muttering to himself: "Impossible... This is impossible..."
"Lao Zhuo, are you okay?" Hunter Zhong asked with concern, waving his hand in front of his eyes.
Scientist Zhuo suddenly came to his senses and shook his head: "I... I'm fine..." But his eyes were full of anxiety, as if he had discovered something terrible.
The atmosphere in the ruins became more depressing, and an inexplicable sense of fear enveloped everyone.
"Professor Zhuo, what's the matter? Please say something!" asked the explorer anxiously.
Scientist Zhuo took a deep breath and said slowly: "These symbols... I seem to have seen them in ancient books... They... They represent..."
"What does it mean?" Everyone held their breath, waiting for his answer.
Scientist Zhuo suddenly shut up and looked at a corner of the ruins. "No..." he whispered, "There is something else here..."
Mou Xuan ignored Scientist Zhuo and walked straight to the corner with a determined look in his eyes.
The team members looked at each other, with confusion and nervousness in their hearts, but no one dared to say anything, they just followed him silently.
"Boss, where are you going?" asked the explorer in a low voice, with a hint of uneasiness in his voice.
"Intuition," Mou Xuan answered simply, quickening his pace.
He shone his flashlight forward and something seemed to be hidden in the corner, which attracted his attention.
There was a cold metallic smell in the air, as if some unknown secret was hidden here.
Mou Xuan squatted down and shone the flashlight carefully on the ground and walls.
Suddenly, he found a seemingly ordinary stone slab with some tiny symbols engraved on it.
He reached out his hand and gently touched the symbols. The rough touch made him more certain that there must be something going on here.
"Professor Zhuo, come here," Mou Xuan looked up at Scientist Zhuo with a hint of anxiety in his eyes.
Scientist Zhuo walked over quickly, looked down at the stone slab, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "These...these symbols...are a variant of the ancient language!"
"Can you untie it?" Mou Xuan stared at him, his tone filled with unquestionable firmness.
Scientist Zhuo nodded, quickly took out some tools from his backpack, and began to study the symbols carefully.
His fingers moved lightly across the stone slab, as if he were performing some ritual.
Suddenly, he took a deep breath and pressed a key symbol.
With a "click", a low roar came from inside the ruins.
The team members looked around nervously, only to see a stone door hidden in the wall slowly open, revealing a long and narrow passage. A faint blue light shone through the passage, as if guiding them forward.
"Success!" Scientist Zhuo shouted excitedly, looking at Mou Xuan with eyes full of admiration.
"Everyone be careful and move forward along this passage," Mou Xuan said calmly, the flashlight in his hand illuminating the road ahead.
The team members followed closely behind, with a mixture of nervousness and excitement in their hearts.
Hunter Zhong holds his hunting knife, ready to deal with any emergency at any time.
Navigator Fu muttered quietly: "I hope this is not a trap..."
Mou Xuan took the lead and walked into the passage, every step he took seemed extremely firm.
At the end of the passage, a brighter light could be seen in the distance, as if calling them forward.
"Boss, what's behind this?" Explorer Ban couldn't help but ask, with a hint of trembling in his voice.
Mou Xuan did not answer, but just walked forward firmly. His heart was already filled with new puzzles and unknown challenges.
The atmosphere in the ruins also became more mysterious and tense amidst this determination...
