Chapter 429 Unexpected Discovery

   It took a few minutes, three people and two cats communicated, and simply completed the topographic map of the surrounding stone forest and the nearby watershed.

   More detailed details can be added after returning to camp, now what they have to do is continue to scout.

   "Let's go to the side peak southwest of the camp."

  Gordon stuffed a piece of food into his mouth, put on the hood of the camouflage cloak again, and walked out of the rock recess where he was temporarily hiding. "Climbing the mountain at night is more dangerous, everyone be careful."

  The hunters took advantage of the darkness and moved.

   It was just after midnight, and before dawn, there should be time to complete the reconnaissance of the sub-peak.

  The sub-peak of the target is very high and conspicuous. Even at night, a few kilometers away, it can be vaguely seen.

  The hunters spent more than half an hour carefully all the way, and finally came to the foot of the mountain.

   This is a trapezoidal mountain. If you have to describe it, it looks a bit like a pyramid cut off at the middle, and its shape is slightly out of place with the surrounding mountains.

  Hayata and Anshir looked at Gordon, Gordon thought for a moment, and said in a low voice: "First investigate around the foot of the mountain, search for abnormalities, and find a suitable climbing route.

  This mountain is not easy to climb. If there is no abnormality at the foot of the mountain, we will consider climbing to the top of the mountain. "

  Hayata and the others had no objection, and a group of people clinging to the cliff at the bottom of the mountain began to scout.

   It was more than an hour of searching without finding anything.

   Just when Gordon was thinking about finding a way to climb up, Hayata, who was at the end of the team, suddenly let out a slight whistle.

  The whole team stopped immediately.

  Gordon, who was in charge of opening the way, and Anshir, who was in the middle of the team, carefully observed the surroundings while gathering towards Hayata.

  Finally concentrated in front of an unremarkable cliff.

   "Pork chop, pandan, be careful around, pay more attention to the sky." Gordon said in a low voice.

   "I understand meow."

   "I see now, meow."

  Gordon walked over, and Hayata was holding a stripping knife, chiseling the root of a small pine tree growing on the cliff.

  After poking the soil loose, she grabbed the tree trunk, shook it vigorously, and pulled up the small tree that was not as thick as her wrist.

  Gordon came to help, and the two quickly pulled the small pine tree from the rock face.

  Hayata threw the small tree aside, put his palm on the place where the small tree had taken root, and brushed it vigorously to remove the covering soil and moss.

  A gray-black flat wall appeared in the sight of the hunters.

"This is."

  Gordon lightly stroked the tight seams that couldn't be pierced with a paper knife, "An undoubted man-made object, a relic?"

  Anshir also came closer, observed carefully, and murmured: "This kind of brick. Gordon, do you still remember when we used to dig the protective stone at the volcano?"

"Um."

  Gordon glanced at the great sword on the epitaph behind him, "It should be the remains of an ancient civilization, Hayata, how did you find such a thick covering?"

   "Look at this cliff."

  Hayatta took two steps back, raised his head and said, "Don't you think it's too flat?"

"It really is."

  Gordon looked up and observed, "Actually, this whole mountain is a bit strange?"

  Anshir said "hmm" and said: "I didn't think much about it at first, but now it seems strange, the shape is too regular, and it's too 'independent', so I just poked here alone.

  If this is really a relatively complete ruins, the scale is a bit astonishing. Could it be because of this ruins that Lanlong is angry? "

   "I think it's possible."

  Hayata nodded and said: "But judging by the appearance of this ruin, it is estimated that it has been here for thousands of years. Why have nothing happened for so many years, but it was only last year that I was angered?"

   "Is it possible that something in the ruins ran out?" Gordon muttered.

  Hayata and the others suddenly felt that the goosebumps on their bodies had risen.

  Pang Lan, who was always eavesdropping, said furiously, "Don't tell horror stories at this time meow!"

   "Ahem."

Gordon also felt that the idea of ​​something running out was too exaggerated, so he changed his words: "Or, well, for example, natural disasters such as earthquakes and landslides caused some changes in the ruins, such as collapse and damage, so Lan The dragon became abnormal?"

   "The collapse and damage caused Lanlong to become abnormal? Do you mean that Lanlong is guarding the ruins?" Anshir couldn't help asking.

   "No, no, no, it can't be a guardian."

  Gordon waved his hands and said: "If it is a guardian, why would Lanlong refuse to approach this area? It should come here often, and it would even make sense to nest directly near the ruins."

   "That's right." Anshir was persuaded, "Then what do you think might be the reason?"

  Gordon tapped on the exposed wall of the ruins a few times, "I guessed for no reason, or just gave a possible example.

   Isn’t the technology of the ancient people in the ancient era much more advanced than ours? Strange alloys with powerful dragon attributes like Epitaph can be tinkered with.

  Then it's not surprising that they can create something that makes Lanlong afraid?

   Let me just give you an example. For example, this ruin is a smelter of dragon-attribute alloys. Because of landslides or other reasons, the dragon-attribute energy inside leaked out, which shocked Lanlong.

   Is it more reasonable to consider this way? "

   "Although it is baseless nonsense, there is some truth"

   Anshir twitched the corner of his mouth, "Then what should we do next?"

  Gordon took a deep breath, "Continue to investigate around this mountain, or the ruins.

  If, as we guessed, the ruins were damaged due to the earthquake and landslide, it should be visible from the outside. "

   "Yes." Anshir pondered for a moment and said: "There are still about three hours before dawn, and considering the journey back to the camp, the time is tight.

  I suggest scattered reconnaissance, the climbing ability of Elle is better, you can let them climb to the top of the ruins for reconnaissance. "

   "Okay, we'll meet here in an hour, everyone be careful, we may be very close to the truth, don't let your guard down at the last minute."

"OK."

"clear."

   "Leave the mountain climbing to me!"

  The hunters dispersed, and they circled the ruins from two directions separately, while focusing on observing the state of the mountain, or the outer wall of the ruins.

   Pork Chop took pandan and scurried up to the top of the ruins.

  For humans, it is really difficult to climb a steep **** with a lack of leverage and an angle of more than 60 degrees with bare hands.

  But this is not a problem for Ailu.

  It only took a little over a quarter of an hour for the pork chop and pandan to reach the peak.

   "There are so many trees, it's almost becoming a jungle here meow," Panlan muttered.

   "Look for meow separately, be careful meow."

   "I'm the most cautious meow!"

   Pandan and pork chops spread apart, landed on all fours, and flew forward into this highland jungle.

   "What a black meow, why is it so big here, I want to go back meow" There is no one around, and Pandan is no longer stubborn, it keeps talking to itself, dispelling the fear of the unknown darkness.

"Meow!"

  One of Pandan's front feet suddenly stepped on the ground, but Elu's super fast reaction made her respond, and the whole cat bounced backwards like a spring.

   "I'm scared to death, Meow!" Pandan scratched her ears in shock.

  It raised its head and looked forward, and saw a huge crack several meters wide and more than 20 meters long lying in front of it.

   "Look, did you find meow?"

  Ps.

   There is only one platform in the map game of Lingfeng, and there are some mountains in the distance. The ruins here have not appeared in the game. It can be regarded as an independent adaptation, otherwise Lingfeng really has nothing to write
