Chapter 4457: Changes in Time and Space

Holding a flashlight and standing at your current position looking back, you can see the circular area in the middle.

Lin Yi whispered:

"You guys follow me, and hurry up, because I don't know how long I can hold on."

Standing at the front of the line, Lin Yi returned along the same path and soon arrived back at the circular area in the middle.

When I stood at the entrance of the passage, I realized that the road I was looking for was not the passage leading to the outside.

It was just as I thought. Under the influence of hallucinations, everyone's vision was affected. This method was necessary to eliminate the effect.

After arriving at the circular area, Lin Yi found the passage he came from and brought the people over.

It was at this moment that Lin Yi heard the shouting.

"Boss!"

"Boss!"

"Sister Ning!"

When he heard the shout, Lin Yi immediately recognized it as Shao Jianfeng's voice and quickened his pace and walked over.

"We're here!"

After hearing Lin Yi's words, the three of them looked at him.

"Who are you talking to?"

"The sword is coming!"

Hearing Lin Yi's call, Shao Jianfeng quickened his pace and ran towards them.

It was indeed true that the hallucinogenic effects of Ning Che and others also disappeared.

"Why are you here?"

"The peacekeepers are here. We've been waiting up there for a day. You didn't come up and we couldn't get in touch with you. I was afraid there might be a problem, so I came down to look for you."

After saying that, Shao Jianfeng saw Lin Yi's injuries.

"Boss, how did you get hurt? Are you in any danger?"

"This is not the place to talk. Let's go up first. I'm fine and I won't die for the time being."

Shao Jianfeng supported Lin Yi, and they returned to the small room together, returned to the cellar, and climbed up one after another.

Ning Che immediately went to find medicine to treat the external injuries and heal Lin Yi's wounds.

But Lin Yi's expression remained unmoved and was extremely gloomy.

"You just said that the peacekeepers came and waited here for a day?"

Shao Jianfeng nodded. "It has been almost 56 hours since you went down, and I still can't contact you. I felt something was wrong, so I went down to look for you."

After hearing Shao Jianfeng say this, several people realized that something was wrong.

Because in their concept of time, only about ten hours have passed since they went down there, it is impossible for it to be that long.

"This place is so weird. It has such a strong hallucinogenic effect." Tao Cheng said with lingering fear.

"I think this is more than just a hallucinogenic effect. We think it's too simple."

Lin Yi's speech once again attracted the attention of several people, and they were all waiting for him to continue.

"I think that in the ruins below, time and space may have changed, which we have not noticed. This is the real supernatural phenomenon, and the culprit is this strange metal we found."

Hearing Lin Yi say this, everyone felt creepy.

If time and space really changed, this would be too terrifying, so terrifying that their worldview collapsed at this moment.

In their opinion, this is completely inexplicable by science. If this is true, the current physics and mathematics systems may collapse completely.

"When we were on Mount Ailao, after we got the strange metal, the unobservable state on Mount Ailao disappeared. But it's different here. We have got the ore, but the supernatural state has not disappeared."

"This may be the difference, or we may think this matter is too simple."

Lin Yi said:

"The strange metal on Mount Ailao has become one with the entire mountain. When the strange metal is taken down, the entire balance is destroyed, and the unobservable state naturally disappears. But it's different here. The strange metal we got may be a core in itself. It can produce hallucinations, or distort time and space."

After a pause, Lin Yi continued:

"Now, let's take this thing out. The surrounding environment and space are larger, so its influence will not be that strong. If it is placed in the confined space of the ruins, it is hard to say what it will be like."

After listening to what Lin Yi said, everyone didn't know whether it was right or not, but logically speaking, there was no problem.

But even so, they still found it hard to believe.

Because this will shatter all scientific systems and may even, to some extent, reveal the true nature of this world.

"Take off your protective clothing and wrap yourself in black metal. This will block the radiation, and the effects it produces will not affect us."

According to what Lin Yi said, Qiu Yuruo used the protective clothing on his body to wrap the black metal.

Once you’ve dealt with the most important things, the rest will follow naturally.

Because he was injured, Lin Yi did not go down and was responsible for monitoring the surrounding situation from above.

The task of transfer fell on Ning Che and the other two.

Because of the huge size of the giant centipede, it took seven or eight people working continuously for more than four hours to transfer the giant centipede out.

When the work was finished, Shao Jianfeng found Lin Yi.

"Boss, that thing is too scary. No wonder you called several team leaders here. If it were us, we might not be able to handle it." Shao Jianfeng said with lingering fear.

Recalling the scene at that time, Lin Yi also felt lucky.

"It really felt like a narrow escape from death. And it wasn't just you. We were all shocked at the time. When we saw it, our legs went weak."

"After so many years, there are not many things that can scare you." Shao Jianfeng sighed.

Lin Yi smiled and said:

"Anyone who sees this thing will be scared. And think about it, this is just a relic. If it were an island, with creatures hidden in the uninhabited area or the core area, how terrifying would it be?"

Shao Jianfeng shuddered and got goose bumps all over his body.

"I don't dare to think about it now. Judging from the current situation, giant centipedes may not be a big deal on the island."

Lin Yi's expression was serious, and he said calmly:

"That's what I'm worried about now. If this is the case, let alone us, even if my dad and his friends go, it may not be effective."

At this point, Lin Yi sighed.

"Now we can only take it one step at a time. As for what the future will be like, no one can predict."

"If not, let's just retire." Shao Jianfeng said with a laugh:

"You have to save your life first."

"Get married first, and I'll approve your retirement application on the same day."

Shao Jianfeng smoked a cigarette, helped Lin Yi treat his wounds, and said slowly:

"That won't work. We are all in the same group. We have to live and die together. As long as you don't quit the group, I won't quit either."
