mysterious forerunner

Chapter 379: God Corpse
When the team members saw that "Xing Shitong" entered the wellhead without hesitation, they began to wonder about his true identity.

"He's not here to take credit... Could he be a assassin from the He family?"

"Carrying out the most dangerous mission?"

"No way, what era is this? There are still people like this?"

But after Zhang Qingxiang left, everyone felt somewhat ashamed for having misunderstood him before.

Now people are using their lives to pave the way for us.

Fortunately, I didn’t find an opportunity to “test the facts” - if I really did it, it would be workplace bullying.

Now they will feel even more guilty.

……

Zhang Qingxiang fell dozens of meters, and the people above saw a hazy blue light from the wellhead.

The trainer said, "It will only activate when it senses life."

A moment later, Zhang Qingxiang's feet stepped on the dim light.

The wellhead looks like an inverted funnel.

The vertical shaft was several dozen meters deep, and it suddenly expanded when it reached the vicinity of the dim light below.

This layer was covered with blue light, with various lines and patterns emerging in it, and mysterious symbols rising from time to time.

The area of ​​the second underground palace is larger than the previous one.

There is a blue light here, which is a formation.

It is suspended in the air above the second level of the underground palace, two meters above the ground.

Through the light, it can be clearly seen that in the second-level underground palace, there are a large number of ammunition boxes from the Second World War.

Several boxes were broken, and the gold, jewels, antiques, etc. inside were scattered out.

Just within the range visible to Zhang Qingxiang's naked eyes, there were seven or eight ancient artifacts that constantly radiated mysterious fluctuations, and they had obviously been transformed into secret objects!

Zhang Qingxiang moved nimbly on the dim light of the formation.

The formations in Southeast Asia are similar to those in China, or to put it more bluntly, they are imitated from China.

It was very different from what Europa called the magic circle.

Zhang Qingxiang casually dropped a few "energy wedges" and nailed them into the formation, temporarily restricting its operation and buying time for himself to further understand the true situation of the formation.

In his previous life, Zhang Qingxiang remembered that the North Americans had indeed discovered a treasure here.

And they got what they wanted.

And a professional from this small country was promoted to the master level shortly afterwards because of this treasure.

He then became a staunch anti-North American.

He has cursed North Americans on many occasions in public, calling them hypocrites and beasts in human form.

The North Americans forced them to die.

His companions all became victims of the greed of North Americans, and he was only lucky enough to survive.

He did not explain the details clearly, but from his words we can probably tell that it was because the incident was too complicated and the process was difficult to explain directly in words.

There had also been discussions within the Secret Security Bureau in the previous life: Given the nature of North Americans, once a bad thing has been done, of course they must cut the roots and eliminate future troubles.

How could a [Domination Realm] be left behind in the local area?
Therefore, it is highly likely that this Dominant Realm player has been overlooked by North Americans.

Only then did he escape and take away a precious secret object from the treasury.

Zhang Qingxiang was standing here now. After a moment, he figured out the secret of the formation under his feet, and then he suddenly said, "So that's it."

This formation was definitely not set up during World War II, as the mystery of that era had not yet arrived.

Instead, after the spiritual wave impacted, a certain ancient artifact in the treasure turned into a secret object and was released on its own initiative to play a role in self-protection.

The formation is extremely bloodthirsty, and you must sacrifice your life if you want to pass!

One life is not enough, at least eight lives are needed.

Not only that, they have to take the life of an ordinary person, but also the life of a fourth-level professional.

Zhang Qingxiang immediately understood: in the previous life, the North Americans must have captured a group of professionals on the spot and forced them to take the risk.

The one who is in the Domination Realm should be the last survivor.

And the process of his survival was probably not glorious. Most likely, he pushed his companions out to die, and he himself survived to the end.

After the formation had consumed enough sacrifices, it was "released". The greedy North Americans rushed in to scramble for the secret object, and no one tried to kill the master.

He grabbed something and escaped, and this thing helped him to reach the level of master in the end.

The North American could see the mystery of the formation in his previous life, so it is obvious that he can see it in this life as well.

Then their purpose of leaking this information to He Jiliang through Luo Yuanhui becomes clear.

They want Chinese professionals to die and serve as "sacrifices".

Zhang Qingxiang frowned: But if we do this...all Luo Yuanhui's previous efforts will be in vain.

unless--

Zhang Qingxiang thought about it again and his eyes fell on the secret objects below.

"North Americans are giving up these secrets?!"

There is no doubt that the tree hole and the secret passage were deliberately left by the North Americans for He Zuo to discover.

The Chinese used the lives of eight professionals to open this formation and returned with a large number of secret objects and treasures.

Although the losses were huge, the gains were equally huge.

Instead, Luo Yuanhui will be trusted by He Jiliang.

But are North Americans really willing to spend so much money for Luo Yuanhui?
"No, there must be some secret in this!"

Zhang Qingxiang did not break the formation immediately, but floated up and emerged from the wellhead.

He Zuo asked anxiously: "What's going on down there?"

Zhang Qingxiang looked around at everyone and said coldly: "Pick eight people to die."

……

In the temple ruins, two North Americans wearing camouflage pants and bare-chested, with cigarettes in their mouths and shovels in their hands, were digging slowly downwards.

After digging for a while, sit down and rest.

No rush at all.

"If we keep digging like this, when will we find the treasure?"

"Don't worry about it. We'll just do whatever the higher-ups say."

There was a portable box beside them, which was filled with ice cubes and several bottles of beer. They opened two bottles, took a sip, and immediately felt refreshed.

"belch--"

I just burped and suddenly the ground beneath my feet shook.

"what happened?!"

……

In the military tent, Courtney was overjoyed: "Here they come!"

"Hurry, hurry, rush out, rush out!"

"The play must be performed realistically!"

The North Americans immediately swarmed out, searching and shouting.

Meanwhile, Courtney was in the tent, staring at an old 14-inch black-and-white TV.

This TV is also a secret object that can play any picture she wants to see.

The TV screen is now locked on the entrance to the tree hole.

About half a minute after the earth shook, several Chinese people rushed out of the secret passage in a panic. They looked in the direction of the temple and found that someone was already rushing over there.

The Chinese did not dare to delay and left the place as quickly as possible.

Courtney counted their number and found that there were exactly eight people missing.

Courtney continued to use the TV to track their movements. After they escaped, they kept rushing out of the jungle without stopping.

Courtney breathed a sigh of relief and a smile appeared on her face: "It worked!"

Ten minutes later, Courtney and his men arrived at the second floor of the underground palace.

The companions looked at the empty second floor and felt very sad: "The Chinese got it for nothing..."

Courtney glared at them, quickly walked to a location on the second floor, and began to feel around on the stone wall.

Of course, North Americans don’t know that among the secret objects on the second level, there is one that can create a master, otherwise they would never have “given” it to China in this way.

When Courtney came in and found no bodies on the ground, he became even more convinced that the Chinese had sacrificed their companions.

Otherwise, where did these eight people go? They couldn't have just disappeared out of thin air.

Courtney found the mechanism on the stone wall and turned it hard. With a dull and heavy sound, the stone bricks in the center of the second layer retreated to both sides, revealing a wellhead similar to the one on the previous layer!

Courtney glanced at his men and pointed at the companion who had complained before: "Hendry, go down and take a look."

Hendry, who was being framed, was secretly angry, but he did not dare to disobey the order. He went down carefully with a sullen face.

The North Americans did not notice that, on the top of the second underground palace, in a shadowy corner, there were nine little men "painted".

It was like an ancient mural. Although it was in two-dimensional mode, everything that was happening below could be seen clearly.

Hendry inserted a small propeller on his head, which looked very similar to Doraemon's bamboo helicopter. With the help of this secret object, he gained the ability to fly and then landed along the wellhead.

Before he landed, he threw four glow sticks downwards, illuminating the third level of the underground palace beneath his feet.

Courtney lay on the wellhead and asked impatiently, "Hendry, what did you see?"

Hendry's voice came, with uncontrollable excitement: "I saw you wanted the corpse of God!"

“That thing is really here!”

Courtney was ecstatic: "Bring it up now!"

Courtney threw down a secret storage object: "Catch it!"

The first two layers of the three-layer underground palace are real material structures, while the third layer is a structure in which matter is mixed with space.

You can't simply open the wellhead and pull up the "divine corpse". It needs to be put into the secret storage object before it can be brought up.

Hendry flew and grabbed the secret storage.

Courtney's eyes flickered, and she didn't completely trust Hendry. She took out the TV and changed the channel - wanting to see the picture on the third floor below.

But the TV set was flickering and making a continuous piercing electric sound, and then with a terrifying sound, the TV exploded, the screen shattered and a puff of black smoke came out!
Courtney was not surprised but happy, as this meant that the [Divine Corpse] below was genuine and of a very high level!

Courtney grabbed another of his men and threw him into the well: "Go help him."

The two men kept an eye on each other to prevent Hendry from doing anything tricky.

When they heard the word "divine corpse", the nine people in the murals became a little agitated, but Zhang Qingxiang remained calm.

Hendry suddenly exclaimed: "Aurelio has changed——"

Immediately afterwards, a beast-like roar was heard from the bottom of the well. Hendry screamed, and rushed out of the well with the propeller spinning rapidly: "Stop him quickly, he wants to eat me!"

A ferocious mouth without eyes or nose quickly jumped up from the wellhead and bit his butt, missing it in one bite.

The body behind the big mouth is like a python, slimy, cold and covered with scales.

Courtney quickly opened the five fingers of his left hand, and the water vapor in the air quickly froze into a thin ice blade, which flew past the wellhead like lightning and cut off the monster.

A roar came from the bottom of the well, and the injured monster felt pain.

However, before the severed mouth and snake neck could fall to the ground, there was a dull bang and they exploded into countless poisonous moths, which fluttered out poisonous mist all over the sky and rushed towards the eyes and noses of everyone!
"what--"

An agent from the mysterious agency was hit, and the wings of the poisonous moth grew rapidly, covering his entire face!
The slender insect legs suddenly became as sharp as steel needles, piercing deeply into his face, penetrating his bones, and drilling into his brain!

Soon the screams disappeared and he turned into a controlled monster.

A huge, hard arc of ice condensed around Courtney, and more than a dozen poisonous moths crashed into it and were frozen.

Another fifth-level warrior in the team quickly raised four weapon platforms behind him, firing thermal rays. He kept shooting for three minutes before all the poisonous moths were killed.

Fortunately, Courtney sealed the wellhead with ice in the first place.

Otherwise, the monster below would have already come up!

Courtney was furious: "Hendry, what on earth did you see?"

"I did see the corpse of the god!" Hendry was full of reverence: "It is more mysterious, great, and awe-inspiring than what you described to me before!
He is a combination of carbon-based and silicon-based life forms.

It contains various forces such as water, fire, wind, electricity, etc.

He may die here, but he may be reborn somewhere else!"

Courtney made a gesture, and two of his men came forward and shone an instrument on Hendry, which kept beeping.

"His infection value is too high, give him medicine."

Courtney looked at the frozen wellhead, and several agents gathered around it, trying to observe the situation below through the ice.

Courtney suddenly thought of a question: Can my power seal the monster that Aurelio has mutated into?
“Get out of the way—”

She shouted out suddenly, but it was too late.

The ice layer suddenly blossomed like a flower, and countless ice crystal insects flew out.

The four agents closest to the scene turned into ice sculptures in an instant.

The number of ice worms this time is more than ten times that of the poisonous moths just now!
The agents fought back desperately amid waves of exclamations and screams.

Courtney desperately closed the wellhead leading to the third floor. After twenty minutes, everything became quiet again.

Courtney also had two wounds on her body. She bandaged herself and then asked in pain, "Who else is alive?"

"I'm still here." It was Barus, the fifth-level [Gunner] who had just used his weapon station to kill the poisonous moth.

"No third one?"

In the vast space of the second underground palace, Courtney's question echoed, but no one responded.

"Go up first." Courtney stood up: "We need support."

The two of them supported each other and climbed back to the ground.

In the second level of the underground palace, the little figures in the murals have already been ready to make a move.

Especially since there were only two North Americans left and they were both injured, they felt they had the strength to kill them directly, and the [Divine Corpse] below would be ours.

Unfortunately, their thoughts could only remain at the level of thoughts. If that "Xing Shitong" didn't let them out, they could only watch helplessly at the two-dimensional level.

Long after Courtney went out, Zhang Qingxiang slid down the stone wall in a two-dimensional state, then swam to the vicinity of the mechanism and examined it carefully.

Good luck.

The third underground palace is a composite structure of matter and space. Fortunately, the mechanism is connected to the third underground palace, and the two-dimensional level can penetrate through it.

If that doesn't work, Zhang Qingxiang will have to find another way.

Once the mechanism is turned, the muffled sound and vibration will inevitably alarm Courtney on the ground.

Zhang Qingxiang slid down from the two-dimensional level to the third level of the underground palace.

This place is isolated from the outside world, but it is not completely dark.

There is a huge creature emitting a faint light.

This place is not a circle like the two layers above, but only a semicircle, because the other half was cut off by the behemoth like a sharp blade!

Zhang Qingxiang swam in from the two-dimensional plane, and the mutated monster of Aurelio seemed to sense something. It was originally crawling beside the [God Corpse], but suddenly raised more than a dozen heads. It had no eyes or nose, but opened its terrifying mouth and spit out its tongue, as if it was sensing the outside world through smell or air flow fluctuations.

From time to time, he let out low growls.

Zhang Qingxiang looked at the divine corpse.

Not afraid of looking directly at it - Hendry can look directly at it and is just infected, so Zhang Qing naturally has nothing to worry about.

The body of the divine corpse is as huge as a blue whale, with dark blue skin and a texture that is a blend of metal and life!

This feeling is hard to describe. Logically, the two are completely different, but they are perfectly integrated on this corpse.

The divine corpse is almost translucent, and its internal organs and various organs can be seen. Many parts are indeed a fusion of machinery and flesh.

It is difficult to describe whether His appearance is more like that of a human, a beast, or some incomprehensible life form.

It seems to cover all forms of life.

Various forces gathered around the corpse.

No wonder Hendry felt that it must be able to manipulate powers of various different attributes.

Zhang Qingxiang breathed a sigh of relief.

This is a master who failed to be promoted to the [Elephant Lord] level.

Its power was already close to that of the Elephant Lord, but unfortunately it failed in the end.

If it is a corpse of the [Elephant Lord] level, then it can really be called a [God Corpse]. Even if Zhang Qingxiang is now in the present, contact with it will cause abnormal changes, and the consequences are disastrous!
This one... might have been trying to reach the level of an elephant lord, but was punished by a certain [elephant lord], knocked down and exiled to an unknown space, and accidentally fell here.

But for Zhang Qingxiang, who wanted to reach the third level of [Domination Realm], it was just right.

Zhang Qingxiang thought about it and did not alarm the mutated monster of Aurelio. He slid along the stone wall and landed on the corpse of the god.

The skin of the god corpse can also accommodate two-dimensional weirdness.

To do this you have to be absolutely sure that the thing is dead.

Aurelio was very anxious. He felt something was wrong, but he couldn't find the source of this feeling.

It kept growling in the underground palace, wandering around, and heavily hitting the stone walls with its long snake neck and eyeless and noseless head.

Zhang Qingxiang sank into the divine corpse and soon found what he wanted.

A [Core] that has not yet fully formed.

This thing has many names. Mystics might call it... the Heart of the Quadrant?
In the previous life, the [true gods] called it [Godhead].

This corpse has begun to impact the elephant master level, and the core has failed to condense halfway.

After Zhang Qingxiang integrated this thing, the infection value on his body soared rapidly!
Aurelio felt extremely manic again, and many heads roared together, turning the underground palace upside down!
Zhang Qingxiang was dizzy from the strong impact of the infection, and for a moment he even felt that he was being called by the distant [Secret World]!

Fortunately, at the most critical moment, Zhang Qingxiang held on.

He integrated into the three worlds, took out the precious secret medicine his mother had given him, stuffed handfuls of it into his mouth, and the infection on his body began to subside.

The moment Zhang Qingxiang entered the three-dimensional world, Aurelio suddenly found the target!
It roared and rushed towards the corpse of the god!

The disappearance of the [Core] made Aurelio lose his awe of the corpse. He quickly tore off the skin of the [God Corpse], but the next moment, Zhang Qingxiang returned to the two-dimensional state and quietly left the third level of the underground palace.

Aurelio lost his target again.

But it had already gone mad and didn't think anymore, it just focused on attacking the [God Corpse] wildly!
Zhang Qingxiang returned to the previous level and immediately took eight team members away from the two-dimensional level. After they reached the ground and were far away from the temple ruins, he called everyone out.

One of the team members immediately couldn't help but ask: "Why not just kill that woman?"
