System: Infinite Evolution into Qilin Bloodline
Chapter 318
Wu Tianzhen, Xie Xiaohua, Huo Xiuxiu, and Zhang Qilin couldn't bear to see the fat man's stomach ripped open by the nine-headed cypress and die a gruesome death. They all closed their eyes in anguish the moment they saw the fat man fall.
Just then, a loud "bang" sounded in my ear, like something had hit the ground, and the expected scream of the fat man before his death did not come.
Everyone opened their eyes in confusion, only to find that Zhang Hao and the fat man had somehow appeared beside them.
They all stared at Zhang Hao and the fat man with expressions of utter disbelief.
The rope was clearly broken; the fat man had already fallen.
Now not only is the fat man alright, but Zhang Hao has also arrived.
If Zhang Hao had come across the wooden bridge, the tomb would surely be filled with the spores of the Hydra cypress.
However, the spores that landed in various places did not react at all, and they did not fly in the air.
How did Zhang Hao manage to rescue the fat man and get here safely without making a sound?
"Uncle..."
Just as Wu Tianzhen was about to ask something, Zhang Hao interrupted her: "Hurry up and check on Fatty. We'll talk about other things later."
"Ouch, that hurts so much, Fatty!"
The fat man was initially stunned, but once he came to his senses, he felt unbearable pain all over his body.
"Brother Zhang Hao, you went too far! That throw just now almost killed me!"
"Fatty, tell me what just happened."
Knowing they wouldn't get anything out of Zhang Hao, they turned to Fatty, hoping to get answers from him.
"The climbing rope broke just now, and I fell down. I was scared half to death. Then Zhang Hao rushed over, grabbed me, and tossed me over like a ball."
"So that's how it is. No wonder you were crying and begging for your parents."
Xie Xiaohua smiled, thinking back to her initial suggestion. If Zhang Hao had actually done that, he probably wouldn't have been in better shape than the fat man, and he might even have lost his life.
Everyone gathered together and waited for the fat man to recover before continuing on their way.
Passing through the exit of the burial chamber, you enter another burial chamber.
Wu Tianzhen, Fatty, and Xie Xiaohua raised their flashlights and shone them around. The tomb chamber was about the same size as the previous one, and it was empty.
"What's going on? There's no coffin or burial goods inside, just an entrance and no exit!"
Upon entering the tomb, everyone wandered around, trying to find clues.
After Zhang Qilin entered, he ran two fingers across the wall, while Wu Tianzhen, Xie Xiaohua, and Huo Xiuxiu studied the carvings and texts on the wall.
The fat man, on the other hand, tapped here and there, trying to see if there were any hidden treasures.
"Boom!"
When everyone had moved to one side, the middle part of the tomb floor tilted instantly, like a seesaw, toward where everyone was standing.
This scene caught everyone off guard, and they almost slipped off the floor.
Fortunately, everyone was quite agile, which prevented them from slipping and falling.
Zhang Hao glanced down at the floor and saw countless barbed spikes standing upright, with many pierced bones scattered among them.
"hiss……"
Besides the spikes, there were also many black-haired snakes swimming around on the ground.
As everyone on the tilted floor saw what was below, they couldn't help but gasp in shock.
If you fall in, those spikes won't be fatal; they'll just trap you, leaving you unable to move and helplessly watching the black-haired snake bite you to death.
"Uncle, look! There's an exit over there!"
Wu Tianzhen suddenly pointed to the floor opposite and shouted.
Zhang Hao turned his head and saw an exit about half a person's height under the floor of the tomb.
"So that's how it is! The exit was hidden under the floorboards. Even the smartest tomb raider wouldn't have guessed that!"
The fat man sighed as he saw the exit.
"But the exit is on the other side, how can we get in?"
"Fatty, are you stupid? The floor is like a seesaw. If we run to the other side, the floor will tilt to the other side, and then we can go out through the exit by following the floor!"
"But can we get to the other side?"
The fat man pointed upwards and said something.
Zhang Hao looked up and saw a stone ball, as wide as the sloping floor, fall from the ceiling, hit the floor, and then roll toward them.
This stone ball not only completely blocked the way up, but it was also rolling towards the side that was tilting.
Zhang Hao darted forward and braced himself against the stone ball.
He was very strong, and easily stopped the stone ball from rolling.
He was just about to push the stone ball to the other end of the floor so that the slab would tilt to the other side.
As soon as Zhang Hao exerted his strength, he stopped as soon as the stone ball began to roll.
Once the stone ball rolls to the other side, the floor tilts to the other side, and the stone ball will instantly block the exit.
Once the exit is blocked, it will become much more difficult for him to find the dragon's corpse and the Wang family's secret base.
"Uncle, I saw you pushing this stone ball so easily, why did you suddenly stop?"
Zhang Hao explained his thoughts, and everyone immediately understood.
"But Uncle, this can't go on forever!"
"That's right. If the stone ball rolls towards us, we'll all die too, but there are two ways we'll die."
One option is to stay on the floor and be crushed to death by the stone ball.
The second option is to jump down, but then you'll be impaled by the spikes and watch helplessly as the black-haired snake bites you to death!
Zhang Hao smiled and said, "Who said there are only these two methods?"
He had barely finished speaking when he saw him retract his hand and then punch the stone ball.
After a loud "bang," countless spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the stone ball. Then, with a "thud," the entire stone ball shattered into countless fragments that fell to the floor and rolled down at everyone's feet.
"Holy crap, Zhang Hao, that was so cool!"
"Uncle, you're amazing! I don't believe anyone else could have cracked this mechanism except you!"
"Uncle, you're amazing!"
"Alright, let's hurry up and get out of here!"
Zhang Hao didn't know if the Wang family had any special means of communication. Two teams of them had already died. If they sensed the danger and ran away in advance, wouldn't it be a wasted trip?
……
Inside the secret underground base of the Wang family in Gutongjing.
"Chief, a team of six has entered Gutongjing. After killing two patrol teams, they are heading towards the base."
The leader grinned: "My Wang family's experimental base is not a place where people can come and go as they please. There's no need to stop them. Let them enter the base, and then activate the highest level of defense so they won't leave alive."
Capture them alive and send them to the lab to be experimented on alongside those gifted teenagers!
