Chapter 4249: Danger in the Core Area

The two continued to walk up the mountain, and the situation below was similar to what they had imagined.

There were many withered plants on the ground. Lin Yi curiously dug out one with a dagger and found that it had died from the roots.

But the plants next to it are still growing well.

The most important thing is that this phenomenon has no regularity at all and is completely randomly distributed. Even Lin Yi can't figure out why this happened.

More than half an hour later, the two reached the top of the mountain as they wished.

Standing here, Lin Yi felt mixed emotions.

He reached the top of the mountain, but what he saw there was completely different from what he had imagined.

In Lin Yi's opinion, this is not a good phenomenon.

"It's incredible that he came up so easily."

Lin Yi understood what Ning Che meant. After arriving at the core area, the dangers they encountered were far less than they had imagined. This was completely inconsistent with their previous expectations.

At this time, Qiu Yuluo and Tao Cheng also came over.

“I didn’t expect to reach the top of the mountain so soon.”

The moment they stood on the top of the mountain, everyone was very emotional. They had never thought of such a thing when they came here.

"Ailao Mountain is recorded in the Dead Sea Scrolls. It is a place that the Anglos are willing to come to at any cost. There must be something unknown here, but we don't know it yet. There is also an octopus monster here, so now we..."

Lin Yi suddenly shut up, staring straight into the distance, his expression becoming extremely ugly.

Seeing that Lin Yi suddenly stopped talking, several people realized that his face looked unhappy and became alert.

"What happened?"

"Dark clouds are coming. It's going to rain. Let's go."

Looking at the dark clouds floating in the distance, the three-member team was a little confused.

It's just a dark cloud. Even if it comes over, it'll just be a rain shower. There's no need to be so afraid of it.

"Hurry up, I'm afraid this rain is not normal, let's leave here first, otherwise the road down will be difficult to walk on."

Seeing Lin Yi's serious expression, the other three had no choice but to follow him.

It's definitely a good idea to be careful at times like this, and it's definitely a good idea to listen to him.

Lin Yi's speed was very fast and his expression became more serious.

When I was climbing a branch of the Ailao Mountains, I saw a faint red light. When I was trying to find out what it was, I saw a dark cloud floating over, blocking all vision.

And when the red light disappeared, the dark clouds dissipated.

From this perspective, the dark clouds on the top of Ailao Mountain seem very unusual.

The four of them were very fast and they retreated in less than 20 minutes. At this time, the sky gradually darkened and dark clouds floated over their heads, covering the sky and the sun in an instant, as if it was a dark night.

Rumble!

Lightning and thunder sounded in the dark clouds. Seeing that the situation was not good, Ning Che said:

"Let's go hide in the woods. It's a good place to avoid the rain."

"It's better not to go. It might be dangerous." Qiu Yuluo said.

Click!

As soon as Qiu Yuluo finished speaking, he saw a bolt of lightning strike the big tree next to him.

The tree trunks turned black and a raging fire started.

"Damn! Scared me."

Ning Che took a few steps to the side, putting some distance between himself and the tree that was struck by lightning.

"You are lucky. If it had been a little more off, you would have been dead." Tao Cheng said with a smile.

"Just stay here quietly. It's easy to get hit if you go in."

After the episode ended, several people prepared to find a place to hide, but found Lin Yi standing there without saying a word.

"What's wrong? Why aren't you talking?" Qiu Yuluo asked.

"Have you ever thought of the possibility that this dark cloud and the lightning that just fell were not coincidences, but were directed at us."

The three of them were confused and had no idea what Lin Yi meant.

"The way the fog zone stops us is mutants, black-fanged worms, movable vines, and mountain-like rock walls. The way the core zone stops human invasion may become more advanced."

Having said this, the three of them immediately understood what he meant.

"You mean, Ailao Mountain mobilized the power of nature? Isn't that too exaggerated?"

"It's not an exaggeration, it's even very likely." Lin Yi looked up at the sky.

"I climbed a branch of the Ailao Mountains before, and a very strange thing happened at that time..."

Lin Yi told the three of them what he had seen in the branch before.

After hearing this, the three of them were surprised for a while.

"But up to now, we don't seem to have seen any red spots, nor have we experienced any dizziness," said Tao Cheng.

"So there must be even stranger places here, but we haven't explored them yet. The dark clouds in the sky and the lightning that struck down are the best proof."

The expressions of the three people can be seen to be extreme. Using human bodies to fight against the power of nature, can they still get out alive?

Hua Hua Hua——

Just then, heavy rain poured down, and the four people behaved relatively restrained.

Except for the open space in front of us, the rest is full of trees.

Once you hide inside, you might be struck by lightning. Comparatively speaking, no place is as safe as this open space.

Click!

Another thunderclap fell from the sky, this time landing in front of Tao Cheng.

"What the hell!"

Tao Cheng kept cursing.

"Even if you have three heads and six arms, you will still be struck to death."

Take out our knife and stick it in the ground.

Several people took out daggers and stuck them directly into the ground. Although the lightning protection effect would not be very good, it could still play some role.

After burying the dagger, the four of them gathered together. It was raining heavily and thunder was heard from time to time.

Fortunately, all the thunders hit the dagger, relieving some of the pressure on the four people.

Qiu Yuluo looked up at the clouds in the sky.

"You guessed it right. It seems to be coming towards us. This cloud has been above our heads for a long time and it doesn't seem to be going away."

"This is an open area. We can see the sky when we look up. If there are electronic devices passing by, they can detect the situation here. However, this violates the unobservable state. The appearance of this dark cloud just maintains the unobservable state of Ailao Mountain. Therefore, as intruders, this cloud may not leave easily before we are completely dealt with."

"This is too weird. Even novels don't dare to write about it like this."

"Life is stranger than fiction. Accept it."

It was pouring rain and several people huddled together for warmth. Just at this moment, Lin Yi heard some strange sounds coming from far away.

"Everyone be careful, something seems to be coming."
