Chapter 637： Astral return, 9 riots (7)

This is a cold and deep lake.

Huge ferns spread out from the water, and lush weeds spread around the lake.

The entire lake is shrouded in a faint mist. Even if it is illuminated with the beam of a tactical glare flashlight, no light will be reflected on the lake. The deep darkness seems to have swallowed the flashlight light, giving people a kind of Inexplicable depression and fear.

The area of ​​the lake is not as big as they thought, it is almost half a football field.

Except for the vigorous weeds and ferns, there is only the virgin forest when they came. On both sides are the canyon-like rock walls. When you lift your head, you can only see the foggy sky, even the sun. Can't penetrate the thick fog.

They did not find the ancient tribe, but directly found the "lake" mentioned in the myth!

"Eric, when you came last time, didn't you say that there was a tribe?" Patton frowned and asked the question in his heart.

"This...this is different from when I came last time." Eric stammered nervously, and said in a panic: "When I came last time, I obviously came in from that path and saw A house with black walls."

"It seems that the cobblestone trail has problems that we haven't found."

Natasha recalled what she had seen and heard along the way, and analyzed: "Perhaps it is similar to the way to enter the soul world. When we passed the cobblestone path, we came to another'space', and this is what the myth mentioned. The lake."

"If so... not good!"

Barton's face changed slightly, and he turned his head and shouted: "Let's see if I can contact SHIELD."

"No, there is a strong interference here."

The tactical member carrying the contact device on his back whispered: "We can't send signals to the outside world, and we can't call for support."

"You are right... Natasha."

Patton looked at the quiet lake, he couldn't help but sighed, pinched his bulging eyebrows, and said: "Now we first find the way back, and secondly, we must confirm whether there are any creatures on the bottom of the lake, and completely destroy the source of the lizardman mutation. "

"What if... confirm that it exists?"

There was a trace of worry in Natasha's eyes: "With our current firepower configuration, it may not be possible to destroy it."

"It's okay, don't worry about that."

Button said that he had thought of it a long time ago, and smiled and took out an object from his backpack: "Before I set off, I specially asked Tony to send it. A genuine miniature Ark reactor was originally intended to be used to supplement energy. Now it seems that it has Better use."

"Hi...Ark Reactor?!"

Natasha took a deep breath and swallowed, "Are you planning to detonate this thing here?"

"The miniature Ark reactor can support the power supply of large cities for one month." Patton grinned and said with a smile: "But as long as we speed up the reactor process a little bit, we can have a safe and non-radiation... Nuclear bomb."

"Tsk...Tony is actually willing to give you this thing?"

Natasha's eyes looked straight, this thing is the most high-end energy crystallization at present.

And she has no doubt that the huge energy that this palm-sized reactor can release can definitely be comparable to a small nuclear bomb. SHIELD has always wanted to get it, but unfortunately Tony's secrecy measures are too good, so she never Just got the real thing.

"If you want to analyze it, don't think about it. There are confidentiality measures for this thing."

Barton saw through her thoughts and shook his head directly: "It can only be used to generate energy to generate energy, or to accelerate into a nuclear bomb. Tony will not tell us the principle of it to anyone at SHIELD."

"Well...I guessed it."

Natasha retracted her gaze regretfully and shrugged: "Then we will be divided into two groups. You are responsible for exploring the creatures at the bottom of the lake. Let's find the way to go, save time and get it back quickly."

"No problem, team three, team four, find your way with Natasha."

Patton said that the plan was no problem. The team of thirty-two people was divided into two parts. Eight of them worked as a team to follow Natasha to find a safe way out, while he led a team and a second team to explore the lake.

After the simple division, Natasha took the third team and the fourth team, as well as Dr. Eric, and plunged back into the dense forest of dense fog to find a safe way back.

"The first team is in charge of shore security. I will go down with the second team to take a look."

Button took out the simple diving equipment from his backpack, and waved at others after putting it on: "If you go down without my order, no one can shoot without authorization. Follow me and don't fall behind."

A team quickly deployed a defensive front on the shore, and the liaison officer continued to try to contact SHIELD.

The eight people in the second team put on diving equipment, checked the conditions of weapons and oxygen, everything went in an orderly manner, showing their elite identities everywhere, and had no doubts about Patton's orders.

Breathe... breathe...

Button took a deep breath and walked into the lake cautiously.

Since the diving equipment he carried when he set off was relatively rudimentary, there was no cold-resistant equipment such as a diving suit. So as soon as he stepped into this strange lake, he could obviously feel the cold invading the bone marrow, and the whole calf seemed to be frozen. Same.

The water temperature here is at least ten degrees below zero, and long-term diving is very dangerous to the human body.

But right now they had no other way. Patton gritted his teeth to stimulate the spiritual power in the body, and then the whole person slowly sank into the lake, turned on the night vision device on the diving mask, and swam to a deeper center.

Cold... pitch black...

The lake is covered with rugged rocks, covered with aquatic plants and seaweed.

The light has been greatly compressed, and the visible range is almost only about one meter. Other than that, the surrounding area is pitch black. In the deadly environment, the only sound is the rattling sound of the water when the hands and feet are stroked.

After the first search, unexpectedly, there was nothing underwater.

There were neither horrible creatures from outside the sky, nor imaginary monsters or lizardmen. The quiet lake bottom was open and magnanimous. Except for the lush grass and rugged rocks, they did not find anything suspicious.

After floating on the surface and resting for a few seconds, Patton took the man into the water again to search.

This time they went deeper, groping for the rocks to swim little by little, and turned on the strong light searchlight above their heads. The lower the viewing range becomes, the lower the viewing range, even with the searchlight as an aid, the viewing distance is not More than three meters, and the lake water became more muddy, there were still some rotten branches along the way, as well as the shadows of partially broken buildings.

After swimming for about a minute, they suddenly saw a complex of buildings.

A large piece of old house with black walls is actually located under this deep lake, and it has been very old depending on the situation. The walls are covered with vigorous plants, which are slowly drifting along with the surging water.

From a distance, the plants seemed to beckoning to them.

He remembered that Eric mentioned not long ago that the ancient tribe was a house with black walls. He didn't expect to see it here!

But the problem is... this place has been sunk for at least a hundred years!

How could Eric see a complex that has been sunk for hundreds of years, or even communicate with the people inside?

Patton stared at the black house, with a vaguely ominous premonition in his heart.

The deepest part of the darkness seemed to have some kind of eyes, watching their every move silently, waiting for them to be automatically sent into the entrance, and then brutally swallowing them all.

After a slight pause for more than ten seconds, UU reading www. uukanshu.com Barton calmed himself down and continued to explore deeper along the house.

But just at the bottom of the tens of meters deep, the ancient ruins that have been sunk for nearly a hundred years are farther in front of the dark and deep lake, but a strange purple light suddenly appeared. After a few flashes of light and dark, it disappeared again. In the dark environment.

In an instant, everyone's brains were blank, their heartbeats accelerated wildly, and adrenaline was secreted.

Purple light...what the **** is that? !

The double pressure of the environment and his heart made Patton almost unable to breathe, and his pupils expanded subconsciously.

Are there other monsters at the bottom of the lake, or are the ghosts of those houses resurrected after a hundred years of sinking?

An unfounded panic began to spread in everyone's hearts.

But what they can be sure of is that the purple light is definitely not an illusion, but a weird sight that actually appears.
