Chapter 2815 - 2816: Fishing for Prey

Chapter 2815: Chapter 2816: Fishing for Prey

Although we still don’t know what this crystal stone is, everyone unanimously agreed that it’s not simple.

If Lin Yi’s guess is correct, many years of absence of beast traces here might be related to this stone.

Jiang Zhengnan put the stone away.

"We have the item now, continue checking to see if there’s anything we missed."

"We need to be quick, we can’t drag this on. If the guess is correct, the beasts outside might come in, we must be cautious," Lin Yi said.

"Let’s decide according to the situation then."

"Alright."

After much fuss, it was already dark outside, but Lin Yi and the others had no intention of leaving, planning to stay here for the night.

Because here, nighttime is safer than the daytime, after all, even animals need rest.

Then, Jiang Zhengnan arranged for a group to keep watch during the night to prevent unexpected incidents.

The rest of the people continued to work inside.

But after a whole night, they found nothing.

A little after five o’clock in the morning, the sunlight pierced through layers of fog, shining on this mysterious land, and the sky outside was already bright.

Sui Qiang and Zhang Chaoyue went out to replace the Yanlong Team, continuing to guard outside.

"I guess there’s probably nothing here. After checking a few more times, we can give up," Jiang Zhengnan said.

Lin Yi nodded in agreement with his viewpoint.

Even though this place is very mysterious, we can’t waste all our time here.

"Brother Nan, let’s also take pictures of the murals in the passage," Lin Yi said:

"I feel like this place is different, like an integral whole, the murals on the wall might have other meanings."

"Whether they do or not doesn’t really matter, exploration is like that, finding a hundred things, if one of them is useful, it’s considered a blessing."

Jiang Zhengnan called out:

"Let’s get to work, then leave this godforsaken place."

"Alright."

Buzz, buzz, buzz—

At this moment, the communicator in Lin Yi’s hand rang.

"Boss, something’s not right outside," Sui Qiang said:

"Lots of bugs have appeared at the entrance, they seem to be crawling into the cave."

"Bugs?"

Lin Yi was startled at first, then reacted and said:

"Keep watching, keep a close eye on them."

"Understood."

After ending the call, Lin Yi looked at Jiang Zhengnan and Lu Yu and said:

"My guess has been validated, now there are bugs coming. It won’t be long before other beasts start coming one after another. Let’s go, this place is not safe to stay."

Jiang Zhengnan and Lu Yu nodded, agreeing with Lin Yi’s point.

Moreover, there’s no need to continue checking here.

After that, everyone sped up their photographing.

When all the work was done, and after checking around and ensuring no traces were left, they exited the ruins.𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

"Let’s go back, your mission is considered complete, go back and rest well," Jiang Zhengnan said.

"We can’t leave now; let’s stay and fish for a while."

"Hmm? Fishing?"

Lin Yi nodded, saying:

"Didn’t we encounter a group that ambushed you before? I guess they might come here too, but since they succeeded in their ambush, they ran away. I’m guessing these people will definitely come back, so let’s wait around to check the situation, we have nothing to lose."

"Haha..."

Lu Yu laughed, "You’ve always got crafty ideas, let’s find a spot outside and ambush them."

After arranging the subsequent plans, two groups went out one after another.

The Black Snake that Lin Yi had killed previously had been completely consumed, revealing a pile of white bones.

Large maggots were still eating the remaining flesh, emitting a strong stench.

After coming out, Lin Yi and the others hid in the dark, blending seamlessly with the surrounding environment.

About half a day passed, and Lin Yi’s guess was thoroughly confirmed.

Another giant python slowly moved towards the entrance of the cave.

After lurking for a moment, it crawled into the entrance of the ruins and didn’t come out for a long time.

"It seems the crystal stone we got is indeed unusual, now all these things dare to enter."

"In my opinion, it will be difficult to investigate here again in the future," Lu Yu said:

"The beasts in the forest will gradually settle in, unless someone on par with his dad comes, otherwise any force that comes here will suffer no good."

"That’s right, we’ve searched all night and found no other clues, presumably there’s no secret chamber," Jiang Zhengnan said:

"Even if my guess is wrong and there are overlooked places, others may not find them, and with these things guarding, this place will be forbidden, and neither side will benefit."

"That’s pretty much the situation."

Before long, another half a day passed.

Everyone saw several more big snakes crawling in through the entrance of the ruins, not coming out afterwards.

It’s as if they’ve made it their new home.

A day passed, and dusk fell.

The group still had no intention of leaving.

Firstly, nighttime is safer than daytime, the chance of encountering large beasts becomes very low, and ordinary large mosquitoes don’t pose a threat to them in their nano protective suits.

Besides, for people like Lin Yi, going days without sleep or food is completely manageable, so no one complained, otherwise, they wouldn’t deserve to be in the Central Guards Brigade.

"Boss, something’s happening."

A voice from Sui Qiang came through everyone’s earphones.

By this time, they had already retreated to the Kandaya Forest, conveniently monitoring the surrounding situation.

"The people who attacked Captain Jiang yesterday seem to have appeared, but it’s hard to determine their exact identity, yet judging by their posture, they seem ready to cross the river."

"Alright, keep watching, report any issues immediately."

After the communication ended, Lin Yi said to the others:

"Let’s eat something first, we might need to get to work soon."

No one asked why, they all quietly took out their supplies and ate in silence, as Lin Yi suggested.

Around midnight, a faint noise approached, advancing towards the direction of the ruins.

"Captain, the Yanlong team hasn’t made any noise, could they have let them escape?"

The speaker was Jing Hongsi, a member of the Skull Squad.

"Even if they escaped, that’s normal, don’t forget, they are the Yanlong Team, not weak in strength."

The speaker was the captain of the Skull Squad, named Junno Tai.

At this moment, the twelve members of the squad were cautiously advancing towards the direction of the ruins.

Aside from slight noises, they seemed to have merged into the darkness.

"But I estimate that even if they aren’t dead, they would be injured."

"Yes, as long as they’re injured, they’ll retreat to recuperate, and our purpose is achieved," Junno Tai said.
