Tomb Raider: I Am Hu Bayi's Cousin

Chapter 849 The Terracotta Army Pit?

Seeing that Hu Ming and Jack had entered the underground passage, the chieftain of the Posi Serpent Clan, who was dodging artillery fire, suddenly became anxious.

"Damn it! We can't let them get there first! Hold these guys off!"

The chieftain of the Posi Serpent Clan ordered his men to hold off Duke Richard while riding his monster toward the underground passage.

However, before he could reach the entrance of the underground passage, Duke Richard's men had already launched a barrage of fire at the entrance.

Under the fire of those bullets, a collapse soon occurred at the entrance, burying the underground passage that had been cleared.

Seeing this, the chieftain of the Posi Serpent Clan was furious, but even so, he was no match for Duke Richard and his men's bullets.

So even though he was unwilling, the chieftain of the Posi Serpent Clan gritted his teeth and chose to retreat.

And so, after the chieftain of the Posi Serpent Clan and his men disappeared on the ice field, Duke Richard and his men finally arrived at the collapsed underground passage.

At this moment, Hu Ming and his two companions, along with Jack and his men, had entered the passage. Upon seeing this, Duke Richard immediately ordered his men to drill again and reopen the passage.

Just as Duke Richard's men were digging the tunnel again, Hu Ming and his two companions had already arrived at the entrance to an underground city along the tunnel.

Looking at the underground city that suddenly appeared in front of him, Hu Ming couldn't help but feel a sense of shock.

Keep in mind that this is the Antarctic ice sheet, yet there is a city here, which is simply unbelievable.

If scientists outside the world knew about this, human history would be rewritten once again.

"This underground city looks huge!"

The young man nodded.

"Judging from the marks of ice, it must have been there for several thousand years!"

The young man spoke up.

"I wonder what kind of civilization it belongs to. If it really has existed for thousands of years, then having such city-building technology is truly advanced!"

Hu Ming was also amazed by the city's prosperity.

Just as Hu Ming and his two companions were stunned by the city before them, they finally heard footsteps behind them.

Hearing footsteps, Hu Ming subconsciously frowned.

"Oh no! They're coming! We need to get out of here right now!"

As Hu Ming spoke, he walked ahead and headed straight for the frozen city.

"Hmph! Let's see where you can run! Everything here belongs to us! You can't have it!"

Just as Hu Ming and his two companions were running towards the frozen city, Jack's voice came from the passageway.

Soon, Jack and his men appeared not far from the city.

However, since they had been captured by the Posi Serpent Clan, they were currently unarmed.

In this way, it would be virtually impossible to cause any harm to Hu Ming and his group.

Seeing that Jack and his men were like toothless tigers, Hu Ming was no longer flustered.

"Ha! Who knows whose it is! Come and take it if you dare! We're waiting for you inside!"

Hu Ming quickened his pace as he spoke.

Jack and his men were hot on their heels, and the two groups ran along the outskirts of the city, soon arriving at the city's entrance.

However, when Hu Ming and his two companions arrived at the entrance, they suddenly stopped.

This puzzled Jack and his friends, and when they caught up and saw what was happening before them, they couldn't help but widen their eyes in astonishment.

"What is this! A burial pit?" Jack frowned as soon as he glanced at the huge pit in front of him.

Not far away, just as Jack spoke, Hu Ming couldn't help but look at the surrounding pits.

"It's not just one pit! It's a whole row of pits!"

As Hu Ming spoke, he couldn't help but observe carefully.

On the other side, the young man also stared at the terracotta warriors in the pit.

"What kind of terracotta warriors are those? I've never seen them before!"

After observing Hu Ming carefully, Juliet, who had remained silent until now, finally became puzzled.

Juliet had seen the Terracotta Army in China before, so she recognized the terracotta warriors in the pit at a glance.

However, for some reason, the more Juliet looked at the terracotta figures, the more she felt that they didn't look like people, but more like some kind of monster.

Upon hearing Juliet's words, Hu Ming couldn't help but start to have doubts.

Actually, not only Juliet, but also Hu Ming, Xiao Ge, and Jack, who were present, did not know what kind of terracotta figures were in that pit.

From a distance, the terracotta figures looked extremely terrifying, with countless tentacles, somewhat resembling octopuses with human heads.

"Hmph! Who cares what kind of terracotta figures they are! Let's get the dzi bead first! We'll come back for the terracotta figures later! They should fetch a good price!"

Jack and his companions didn't care about the terracotta figures in front of them, so they quickly started walking towards a suspension bridge above the pit.

The suspension bridge led to the frozen underground city, but just as Jack and his men stepped onto it, the terracotta warriors in the pit suddenly began to move slowly.

Click, click, click!
A series of sounds came from the distance, and Hu Ming and the other two were immediately drawn to it.

"Mr. Hu Ming, look! Those terracotta warriors seem to be moving! What's going on?!"

Juliet was the first to scream.

The young man standing next to him also frowned at this moment.

"I have a bad feeling! These terracotta warriors are very unusual!"
"With his keen senses, the young man also frowned at this moment."

After hearing what Juliet and the young man said, Hu Ming also became a little worried.

After all, if these terracotta warriors really came to life, we really wouldn't know what to do.

They currently have neither weapons nor the means to escape, and if attacked, they will likely face a difficult situation.

On the other side, just as Hu Ming was feeling somewhat worried, Jack and his group were indeed the first to be attacked.

The one attacking them was a terracotta warrior standing under the suspension bridge.

At this moment, the upper body of the terracotta warrior came to life, and its dozens of tentacles reached out towards Jack and his men.

Jack's men didn't even have time to react before they were dragged away by the terracotta warrior.

Seeing this, even Jack turned pale with fright.

"They must have triggered a mechanism on the suspension bridge!"

Looking at the terracotta warrior that had suddenly come to life from afar, the young man spoke.

As soon as the young man finished speaking, more terracotta warriors in the pit began to move, a sight that was truly shocking.

"Oh no! If they all come back to life, it will be too late! We must get into that city immediately!"

Hu Ming glanced at the situation below, then quickly turned around and started heading towards the suspension bridge!
