Infinite Survival: The winner takes all!

"Okay, okay." Shi Jiangshan nodded repeatedly, "We will take action right away."

Then, the top leaders of the alliance began to organize actions in an orderly manner and arranged for the residents of Tiansha City to move to surrounding cities in an orderly manner.

At the same time, Li Ming and his party conducted a detailed investigation of the entire inner area of ​​the city.

Two hours passed in a blink of an eye. They almost turned Tiansha City upside down, but they didn't get any valuable clues.

After a brief discussion among several captains, they decided to dig underground.

The main force of excavation is still Li Ming's 'environmentally friendly' brand hole-drilling machine, but the machine in front of him is more majestic than any other he has assembled before.

Under the huge size of the hole punching machine, the twenty people standing on top of it seemed extremely small.

Along with the rumbling sound of machinery, large areas of soil were quickly dug out.

The hole-drilling machine was fully powered and continued to dig downwards. Everyone followed its rhythm, slowly descending, and gradually deepening into the underground world.

One thousand meters, two thousand meters, five thousand meters, eight thousand meters...

They went deeper than 30,000 meters underground, but still didn't find any major abnormalities.

The only slightly confusing thing is that they occasionally pick up artifacts that are badly decayed.

The original purpose of these objects has been obscured and difficult to identify, but they are clearly not ordinary objects of daily life.

At this time, Nanny was holding a broken thick metal piece tightly, her brows furrowed, and she said thoughtfully: "Roughly estimated, this item has a history of at least tens of thousands of years."

"It's really puzzling." Green next to him added, "How could such an ancient item appear tens of thousands of meters underground?"

"Under normal circumstances, it is certainly impossible for these items to appear so deep underground, so the only explanation is that someone deliberately brought them deep underground." Alderson said calmly.

Bu Huayin was always observing the changes in Li Ming's expression. When she caught the fleeting strangeness on his face, she quickly asked: "Captain Li Ming, have you discovered anything?"

Li Ming took a deep breath and said with a bit of solemnity in his tone, "I did feel an indescribable energy fluctuation. It seemed to be both ethereal and heavy in my heart. More importantly, it gave me an extremely profound feeling. The feeling of testing..."

"Sure enough, there is something strange..." Nanny murmured, "It can make even your Captain Li Ming feel complex energy fluctuations. I'm really curious."

The rumbling hole-drilling machine continued to dig downwards tirelessly, and the depth of everyone's dives was also constantly being refreshed.

Fifty thousand meters...eighty thousand meters...one hundred thousand meters...

Surprisingly, even at this depth, they still did not touch the magma layer.

Not only that, as the depth increased, they felt the temperature gradually decrease.

It wasn't until they reached a depth of 150,000 meters that everyone finally discovered something unusual. The drilling machine accidentally dug out a naturally formed cave.

"Let's go in and take a look." Li Ming took the lead in walking into the cave passage next to the hole drilling machine, holding an extraordinary light.

When the others saw this, they quickly exchanged glances and followed closely behind Li Ming.

The cave passage is so spacious that even if twenty people walk side by side, they will not feel crowded at all.

Nanny carefully observed the inner wall of the cave passage while walking. She touched the stone wall lightly and said thoughtfully: "Looking at the traces of this cave passage, it seems to have been formed by long-term erosion by some powerful energy."

After hearing this, Alderson looked around and nodded, "Well, now I do feel a vague sense of oppression."

"Isn't there a powerful demon hiding under here?" Bu Huanyin had a strange look on his face.

"I don't feel like it..." Green mused. "This kind of energy fluctuation is completely different from that emitted by demons. I didn't feel any evil breath. On the contrary, it gave me an extremely advanced and unfathomable energy." Feel."

As soon as everyone entered the passage, they encountered an eye-catching fork in the road before they had gone far.

Li Ming stopped for a moment and looked around deeply. Finally, he chose the downward passage and led the team to move forward.

As they continued to go deeper into the cave, they felt more and more that the interior of the cave was like a maze, with endless forks in different directions.

Not only are there holes that go forward, turn left, turn right, and go down, but what's even more surprising is that there are passages that go straight up.

Everyone remained silent, followed closely behind Li Ming, and walked silently along the downward entrance of the cave without saying a word.

Time passed by in a hurry, and three hours flew by.

During this period of time, even Li Ming, who was leading the way, could no longer accurately calculate how many forks he had passed through, let alone how many meters he had descended.

At this moment, they unexpectedly came to a vast cave.

Inside the cave, extraordinary lighting lamps emit soft and bright light, just like daylight.

When everyone's eyes reached the center of the cave, they were shocked to find that there was a huge cave there. Around the cave, dozens of people were lying quietly, as if they were in a deep dream...

The image of these people is quite desolate, with disheveled hair, naked clothes, and skinny bodies.

If one could not vaguely feel the breath of life exuding from their bodies, people might mistakenly think that they were just a pile of lifeless corpses.

Everyone exchanged looks with shock and confusion in their eyes.

None of them expected to witness such a strange scene hundreds of thousands of meters underground.

Bu Huayin spoke slowly with some hesitation, "They...should be human beings, right?"

Yun Shan frowned slightly and said with certainty: "They are indeed human beings, but judging from the rotten aura emanating from them, I'm afraid they are all 'Long Live Lord' level beings."

"Huh..." Nanni exhaled softly and said slowly: "The strange energy fluctuations are becoming more and more obvious. Perhaps it is this energy that supports their survival to this day."

"Uh... 'Long live the Lord', this adjective is indeed quite appropriate." Alderson's mouth twitched slightly, and then he turned to look at Li Ming, "Captain Li Ming, what do you think?"

Li Ming stared straight ahead and said calmly: "Human beings can't live this long, so strictly speaking, they no longer belong to the category of humans."

"Of course, it doesn't matter whether they are human or not. What matters is whether they still retain consciousness."

Bu Huanyin thought for a moment, and then suggested: "Then... wake them up?"
