Chapter 4778: Ancient City

After surveying the situation outside, Lin Yi and Song Jinmin went back.

And shared the situation of the last few kilometers with others.

Everyone was surprised when they heard the news, but after thinking about it carefully, they felt it was reasonable.

"If that's the case, we may be able to pass the last few kilometers in a short time," said Moon.

"I think it's better to take advantage of this time to have a good rest," said Jiang Zhengnan.

"You can rest, but not for too long." Lin Jingzhan said:

"Mammon and Anglo's people have already taken action. They have begun to advance deeper into the jungle by piling up heads. We are lucky to have found a ruin and come all the way here, but in my opinion, there must be more than one such ruin in the jungle. Maybe they will find it and come to this place in a short time, so we can't be too slow, otherwise we will leave them a chance."

What Lin Jingzhan said is a possibility and other people agreed.

"If everyone is okay with that, let's rest for three hours and get as much sleep as possible. Then we'll set off."

Afterwards, each team left someone behind to stand guard around the area, while the rest of the people found a relatively safe place to rest.

Lin Yi and Song Jinmin huddled together. They also wanted to sleep, but were too excited to fall asleep.

Over the years, countless manpower and resources have been wasted, and countless people have died on this land. Everyone wanted to come to the core area, but in the end they all failed.

Now that I am about to set foot on this land, it would be a lie to say that I am not excited.

"What do you think will be in the final core area?"

"Who knows? The magnetic field inside is too strong. The images taken by satellites are blurry, so don't hold out too much hope. Just keep a normal mind."

"It's really annoying. I really want to go and see it now."

"Based on the current situation, we will be able to cross the no-man's land in one day, and the mystery will be solved soon."

"Ah."

Three hours was neither long nor short. When the time was up, everyone in each team was called up and they continued to move forward.

Following the route explored by Lin Yi and Song Jinmin, everyone walked forward.

Because they were equipped with black metal, all the snakes, insects, rats and ants along the way were driven away.

For the large group of people, such an environment is even less dangerous than the tropical rainforest.

Subconsciously, everyone quickened their pace, and finally after a day, they passed through the no-man's land.

Everyone stopped. There was a field of yellow earth in front of them. When the wind blew, a large cloud of dust would be raised, but everyone's vision was not blocked and they could clearly see what was ahead.

There is an ancient city ahead. The highest point is about as high as three or four stories. It covers a huge area that cannot even be estimated with the naked eye.

People couldn't imagine that thousands of years ago, there was a civilization that could build settlements like this.

Although the dwarves have advanced technology, they seem to be inferior to the Naxi in the development of civilization.

The shock they felt from the scene before them was indescribable.

"Let's take a short break and then we'll set off."

Because they did not encounter any danger along the way, everyone's physical strength was well preserved, and they recovered to their peak condition without resting for long.

"Come on, let's go take a look."

Lin Jingzhan and Moon took the lead, the main force followed in the middle, and Lin Yi and Song Jinmin were responsible for the rear.

The distance between them was not far, only a few hundred meters, and they soon arrived at the corner of the ancient city.

Although it was broad daylight, the silence all around made it feel eerie.

Standing on the land beneath their feet, everyone had a feeling of traveling through time, as if they had returned to thousands of years ago and were talking to people of that era.

Perhaps the Naxi people would never have thought that thousands of years later, humans from land would come here.

After walking around the city wall, everyone found the entrance.

The city gate is a huge stone. After thousands of years of exposure to wind, frost, snow and rain, signs of corrosion have appeared on it.

"I'll try."

Lin Yi and Song Jinmin stepped forward, stood on either side of the stone gate, and pushed with all their strength.

It didn't take much effort and the stone door shook, but it didn't open. Instead, it fell to the ground.

After so many years, they have completed their mission and died.

But a strange emotion arose in everyone's heart.

It seems that this place is also waiting for the arrival of people from later generations to unravel the secrets that have been left for thousands of years.

The door opened and everyone stood outside, looking ahead.

The interior of the ancient city is built entirely with stones and wood, and despite thousands of years, it still retains its original appearance.

The feeling given by this place is different from any other civilization. It is more like a modern city. It is hard to imagine to what extent the technology had developed back then.

"Let's go in and take a look. Keep the formation and no one should mess up."

"Don't be so nervous, relax a little." Song Jinmin reminded Lin Yi.

"I'm afraid there's something wrong with this place. If an illusion appears, we'll all be trapped here. If I find something wrong, I'll stab myself."

"I seem to have heard you say that this was the case with the ruins in Africa I visited before."

"Ah."

Lin Yi nodded. "This place is too quiet. It's even a little scary. We have to be careful."

Everyone maintained their formation and slowly advanced into the city.

It was very quiet around. When standing outside, there was still the sound of wind and leaves shaking, but now there was no sound at all. The only sound was the nervous heartbeats of everyone.

Everyone was very nervous, and no one knew when the danger would come, or even how it would appear.

In this way, everyone continued to explore carefully and cautiously.

This pace of advancement continued for more than two hours, but still nothing was seen.

"No one should take it lightly and remain highly vigilant."

Lin Yi's words reminded everyone so that they would not let their guard down.

Five hours passed, and everyone felt exhausted due to the high level of mental tension.

Lin Jingzhan ordered to rest for a while in place to recover their strength.

Lin Yi looked in all directions. His eyesight and perception were amazing, but even so, he still didn't find any clues.

"The place where we are should be the main urban area, where ordinary people live. The classes of the Naxi people should also be very clear. Maybe the secrets are hidden in high places." Lin Jingzhan said.

"Underground is also a possibility, but there shouldn't be anything as far as we can see. Once we finish exploring the surroundings, we can go into the house."
