The Age of Lords Reborn

Chapter 323 Deep Underwater Cave (Subscribe)

Just south of Dameng Town, 300 kilometers away.

Under an 800-meter waterfall, nearly twenty guards in black gathered here.

"Captain, search all the way along the river, and search all the nearby upstream and downstream, only this waterfall has not been investigated." A black-clothed guard stood beside the leader and said loudly:

"Would you like to go down and have a look?"

The waterfall in front of me may not be big, but it is not so simple to say it is small.At a height of nearly ten feet, the river is rushing down, and it is not so easy to approach.

Looking at the rising mist of the waterfall, the leader was silent for a while, and then said: "Prepare the rope, and send a small team to go into the water to try."

"Here."

Hearing this, the deputy of the black-clothed guard next to him cupped his fists, and immediately said to the subordinates behind him: "Lin Yi, you are very good at water, and you will lead people to dive to explore the deep pool of the waterfall later. .”

When the two teams were ordered to move, a short black-clothed guard quickly took off his single clothes, then tied a thick rope around his waist, pulled it vigorously, and then nodded:
"Captain, I'm fine."

"Captain, I'm fine too."

"It's fastened, Captain."

Following the reports of one of the launching members, seven black-clothed guards who were strung together by thick ropes stood on the bank of the river one after another.

Behind them, seven others held onto the end of the long rope.

Underwater exploration is inherently dangerous, not to mention that this is a deep pool with waterfalls. If you do not make sufficient safety preparations, you may be swept away by the rapids of the waterfall if you are not careful.

"Down!"

Seeing that his subordinates were all ready, the captain gave the order immediately with a wave of his right hand.

'Puff puff puff puff'

Lin Yi and the others "thumped" into the deep pool like dumplings, and immediately sank to the bottom of the pool after a few splashes appeared.

Snorkeling!

Snorkeling against the current at a depth of more than two or three feet.

Even Lin Yi, who is the leader, has excellent water skills, but it feels a little difficult to move an inch in the deep pool.

It may take only ten seconds to run 100 meters on flat ground, but at this moment, it is not enough to run 2 meters in deep water.

1 minutes
2 minutes

3 minutes

Time ticked away, and the guards in black on the bank were all staring at the river.However, to their disappointment, there was no response from beginning to end.

"It's been too long. You have to pull them back, or you'll die inside." Seeing that half a quarter of an hour passed without any response, the deputy of the black-clothed guard who had asked the captain for instructions spoke again.

"hold on."

The captain didn't directly agree, but there was some hesitation in his eyes.

What the lord and the military adviser assigned was only a search mission, and he didn't want his subordinates to suffer casualties in this kind of mission.

6 minutes

7 minutes

Seeing that half a quarter of an hour was about to pass, the captain frowned and looked at the second team: "Do they have a signal back?"

"Captain, we have been releasing the rope and have not received any distress messages."

There's none?
The black-clothed guard captain squeezed his fist, shook his head after thinking for a while, and said, "Send them a signal and pull them up."

Although it is important to find gold mines, the lives of his subordinates are also very important. Since the search is fruitless, he does not need to lose so many capable men.

However, when the captain gave the order, the black-clothed guard standing on the shore suddenly felt the long rope in his hand being tightened once, then loosened for a while, and then tightened again.

Tight, loose, tight.

This is the signal they agreed upon before going into the water.

There is a discovery at the bottom of the pool!
"Captain, Lin Yi and the others have sent back a signal. They must have found something. Let us go down too." The guard in black carefully distinguished the two signals, and immediately turned around to report after confirming that they were correct.

Hearing this news, the leader's eyes narrowed slightly: "Cao Bin, you stay with the three reserve team members, and the second team will follow me into the water."

"Yes!"

After a while of personnel exchange, the leading captain jumped into the water first.Grabbing the long rope and diving quickly, the forward speed was more than double that of Lin Yi and others who had opened the way before.

When he walked along the long rope for a distance of nearly 200 meters, he could already vaguely see the light coming from above his head.

It's fire!
Each black-clothed guard has a few small personal items, such as fire folds sealed in a small wooden box.

There must be another cave under the waterfall!

Thinking of this, the leading captain couldn't help but use his hands and feet three times faster.When he gradually floated up from the bottom of the water, he saw a cave above his head as soon as he emerged.

The team led by Lin Yi was on the shore, each holding a small torch in their hands.

As for Lin Yi himself, he stretched out his arms on the shore and pulled his immediate superior up: "Captain, the cave is very wet, I'm afraid it's not so easy to light a torch."

"Gather the fire pockets, don't waste them at the entrance of the cave." The wet captain immediately waved his hands, and then pointed to the dark corridor: "Come on, let's go over there and have a look."

Leading a dozen people to walk in, the team leader raised his arm after walking less than 50 meters: "There is a strange smell in it, hold it tight for me."

Because it was a diving search, the black-clothed guards were almost naked at the moment, except for a fire pocket to barely illuminate, there was only a short dagger specially made for them.

Hearing the captain's order, Lin Yi and others immediately pulled out the dagger.

ten meters
30 meter

50 meter

When the crowd kept going inward along the corridor, the voices of "Xi Xi Suo Suo" followed closely into their ears.

"Whoosh~"

When a rushing sound came from far to near, before he had time to see what it was, the leading captain waved his dagger across the face.

With a 'shua' sound, the sharp dagger easily cut through the unknown creature's flesh, spattering a little blood.

"Huh~ It's a big mouse."

Bending down to bring Huoziezi closer to the ground, the captain finally saw what he had injured.

A mouse about the size of a kitten.

The mouse's teeth were sharp and sharp. Although it was severely injured, it still kept baring its teeth.The leading captain didn't think too much about it, and directly killed the little thing with one knife, and then continued to move forward.

Along the way, it was inevitable to run into a second and a third mouse.

One is fiercer than one, and one is fatter than one.

After a group of 15 people dealt with almost a hundred big mice, the wet corridor that was not spacious suddenly became wider, even the ground was relatively dry, and there were many ivy attached to the mountain wall.

"Captain, look quickly." Lin Yi, who had been following behind the captain, seemed to see something now, pointed to the distance and spoke.

"Huh? Is there light?"

The leading captain looked in the direction of Lin Yi's finger, and soon saw clusters of slight lights.

The sheen is very light, but definitely there.

"The formation."

Being in an unknown cave, the captain did not dare to be careless, and ordered two teams to march forward in formation, approaching the fluorescent light in the cave step by step.

As this group of people slowly approached the fluorescent light, whether it was the captain, Lin Yi or other team members, they all saw groups of rats scattered around, hugging gravel and grinding their teeth.

Those gravels, without exception, were all glowing with a dark golden luster.
