Infinite Survival: The winner takes all!
Chapter 407 Underground Maze
No one else spoke, but turned their questioning gaze to Li Ming. Li Ming was currently the most powerful superpower in the team, so his opinion would naturally be the main one.
Li Ming flicked his fingers gently, and a weak purple arc shot out instantly, pointing directly at the people lying quietly next to the cave entrance in front.
When the arc touches the first person, a crackling spark of electricity bursts out, and then the current spreads rapidly through the group like a ignited fuse.
"what!"
"Wow!"
"..."
This group of people, who were originally sleeping like savages, were awakened instantly by the sudden electric current.
They jumped up from the ground as if they were frightened, began to dance, and made sharp and piercing screams from their mouths, showing extreme panic and confusion.
After a long time, these awakened savages gradually regained their composure.
Then, they began to smell the air and seemed to detect some strange smell.
It was only then that Li Ming and others noticed that the eyes of these savages had become cloudy and their pupils were gray-white, which was obviously a sign of blindness.
However, even though their eyesight is gone, their sense of smell has become extremely sharp.
They quickly identified the stranger's presence through their sense of smell, and then roared from their mouths and pounced on him with their teeth and claws bared.
Li Ming flicked his finger again, and a bright purple arc suddenly shot out like a meteor.
Just as the electric arc approached the ferociously charging savages, it expanded instantly and turned into a magnificent power grid.
This power grid enveloped the savages like a huge canopy, and the strong thunder element contained in it penetrated directly into their bodies.
Under the impact of the powerful energy, the savages' whole bodies trembled violently, while streams of black smoke rose from their bodies.
The strength of these savages is between L2 and L3. Therefore, Li Ming must control the power of the power grid very carefully to avoid accidentally electrocuting them all into human charcoal.
Two seconds later, all the savages fell to the ground helplessly.
Their bodies had turned black and were still twitching, appearing extremely painful.
Li Ming took a few steps forward, condensed a powerful spiritual power, and forcibly invaded the depths of the mind of one of the savages.
After a while, his brows furrowed slightly. The savage's sea of consciousness was filled with chaos and disorder, unable to capture any clearly identifiable emotions or fluctuations of consciousness.
It is obvious that these savages have completely lost their self-awareness, and their current state is not even as good as basic beast instincts.
Others also conducted various explorations on the savages and came to the same conclusion as Li Ming. Although these creatures still have signs of life in their bodies, their consciousness has been completely annihilated.
"They must be very ancient humans," Green said with a confused look on his face, "Why do they have to go so deep underground?"
"Maybe it's to pursue this elusive energy?" Bu Huanyin tentatively guessed.
Nanni glanced at her and questioned: "Then how did they know that there was unknown energy hidden underground? You know, even Captain Li Ming only vaguely sensed it after going more than 30,000 meters underground."
"I don't know about that." Bu Huayin spread her hands helplessly, "Other than this possibility, it's really hard to find any other reasonable explanation."
Alderson scratched his head, obviously having no clue. After thinking for a moment, he turned his gaze to Li Ming next to him and asked: "Captain Li Ming, what do you think?"
"I don't have any opinion, but now that the clues have emerged, we just need to continue to investigate deeper, and the answer will naturally surface."
Li Ming stated calmly, and then he walked to the entrance of the cave that led directly to the underground, "Let's go, the underground world will reveal the mystery for us."
The passage of this cave is more than ten meters wide in diameter, making it extremely spacious and open.
Everyone stood on the metal disc condensed by Li Ming and slowly sank into the deep underground cave.
During the descent, they encountered multiple forks in the road, but they did not stop at any of them, but continued deeper.
After descending to a depth of nearly a thousand meters, they discovered a huge cave.
With the help of the strong light from the extraordinary lighting, Li Ming found a scene similar to the previous cave not far ahead.
Dozens of disheveled, emaciated humanoids were sleeping around the huge cave entrance.
Everyone looked at each other, and before they had time to communicate, the monsters that looked like savages woke up one by one.
Their first action after waking up is to sniff the smell in the air, and then they rush towards everyone crazily.
Li Ming's face was expressionless. He flicked his index finger, and an electric arc instantly cut through the air, accurately hitting the approaching savage.
Under the power of the arc, the savages were charred all over and fell to the ground helplessly, their bodies twitching violently.
Nanni frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "Compared with the monsters in the last cave, these monsters are obviously stronger and have basically reached the L3 level."
"Perhaps, the closer we get to the special energy, the more powerful the monsters we encounter will become." Alderson speculated.
Green nodded slowly, "Since these monsters rely on special energy to maintain their lives, naturally, the closer they are to the source of energy, the stronger they will be."
"Let's continue exploring." Li Ming said, taking the lead towards the underground cave not far away.
Hearing this, the others didn't say anything more and immediately followed him, following his footsteps.
Over the next two hours, they discovered more than a dozen caves.
Without exception, there are some monsters sleeping next to the underground caves of every cave, ranging in number from a few to dozens.
And just as Alderson guessed, as they continued deeper underground, the monsters they encountered became more powerful.
At present, the strength of the monsters they encountered has reached L4, and some have even reached L4+ level.
However, what makes players most uneasy is that they find that the power of their abilities is rapidly weakening.
"What's going on? The power of my powers has been reduced by at least half." Green said doubtfully.
Alderson also smiled bitterly, "Yes, not only is the power of my power greatly weakened, but it is also very unsmooth to use, as if something is hindering it."
Nanny thought for a moment and then responded, "It doesn't feel like our abilities have been suppressed, but more like our power is being taken away little by little..."
Hearing this, many people's faces clearly showed uneasiness, because they could all feel that their powers were dissipating rapidly, and this was something they had never experienced before.
Bu Huayin bit her red lips, glanced at Li Ming without any trace, and asked tentatively: "Captain Li Ming, are your powers also affected?"
