Zerg: Cold and aloof Major General, stop pretending to be innocent, I have a headache!
Chapter 82 Entering the Underground
The underground layout is intricate and interwoven, eventually converging on the land beneath their feet.
Jiang Xu looked at the screen and unconsciously stomped his feet on the ground, realizing there was such a large space beneath his feet.
"Where's the entrance?" his low, cold voice asked. "Find it."
Zoe snapped out of her daze and continued adjusting the image detection parameters, spreading them outwards. The passage below was more complex than they had imagined.
If it weren't for the detectors, even if they were lucky enough to find the entrance, they would most likely have been trapped inside and died.
"Found it, it's here." Zoe suddenly spotted a passageway leading to the ground.
Jiang Xu looked at the spot he was pointing to, then quickly looked up at the corresponding spot.
He knew this location; he had seen it once during the second search with Uncle Lin and Uncle Jiang.
At the time, he just felt that the rock was a bit strange, but he didn't think much of it. There are many strange rocks at the bottom of the cliff, and it's impossible for all of them to be problematic.
However, the insect that set up this place must have anticipated that normal insects would think this way.
"Make a copy of this image and send it to my email."
"Um."
Soon, an underground map appeared on Jiang Xu's wrist. He slid his finger across the map on the screen to make sure nothing was missing, and then nodded to Zoe.
Zoe turned off the detector and winked at the female insect behind her, who quickly stepped forward to dismantle the device.
"You? You want to go in?" Zoe asked.
"Yes, thanks for today. Your instrument was a great help." According to Jiang Xu, the Zerg's current detection equipment can only detect abnormal noises from below.
The only thing that can accurately detect the underground conditions is probably the detector that Zoe brought.
"What are you talking about? I happen to have some, don't I?" Zoe waved her hand dismissively. "I'm glad I could help you."
"You're going in alone?"
Jiang Xu glanced at him: "Do I look like an idiot?"
"......" Zoe was speechless, but quickly laughed out loud: "Yeah, you're not a reckless bug either."
Although he said that, he still felt that the other party was capable of doing such a thing.
Jiang Xu made a phone call to Zoran, as this discovery was closely related to Jiang Mian.
Under the bright sunshine, a sound came from the top of the cliff, and soon some exquisite flying machines appeared in his eyes.
The Jiang family actually has this kind of thing?
Soon, five or six small flying machines, much smaller than normal flying machines, filled the bottom of the cliff.
If the aircraft they arrived in was like a stretched Lincoln, then this aircraft would be like a two-seater old man's car.
But its functionality seems to be comparable to that of a normal aircraft.
Jiang Xu examined the aircraft several times, and only after Zoran approached did he take a few steps forward: "Grandfather."
Aside from the time he was searching for Jiang Mian back then, Zoran had never been here again. His memory seemed to be pulled back to the time when he learned of Jiang Mian's accident.
His emotions surged, but he forced himself to suppress them: "You're saying there's another passage down there that we don't know about?"
"Yes," Jiang Xu replied, "Please follow me."
The insects followed Jiang Xu to what was likely the entrance.
Zoran frowned slightly as he looked at a huge boulder half-embedded in the cliff face. Not only that, but there were also many other boulders of different sizes scattered around it, making it no different from the surrounding environment.
If there's any difference, it's probably that the edges of this stone are slightly more rounded compared to other stones.
Of course, this point is almost negligible.
"Here?" he asked Jiang Xu, pointing to the pile of rubble.
"Yes, that's right." Jiang Xu sent Jiang Mian a blueprint directly: "The confirmation passage is right here."
This was also the farthest boundary in Jiang Xu's calculations at the time.
Zoe raised her hand and waved to the insects behind her. The insects that followed quickly stepped forward and began to move the rubble.
Soon only the largest piece of rubble remained on the edge of the cliff.
Zoe glanced at the rock, took a step forward, and the female insects around her instinctively took a few steps back.
Jiang Xu looked at Zoran with some surprise, marveling at his great-grandfather's strength, but Zoe pulled him back two steps from behind.
He stumbled back two steps, his steps faltering, and was about to ask what happened when a loud crash rang out and the stone shattered.
"......." Jiang Xu suddenly turned his head and saw Zoran retracting his leg.
Um~
For some inexplicable reason, a chill ran down my spine.
He steadied himself and remained silent for a moment.
"What's wrong? Are you scared?" Zoe seemed to notice Jiang Xu's embarrassment and asked in a low voice beside him.
"No." Jiang Xu glanced at him, but suddenly remembered that Zoran had said he would support Fei.
"Yeah?"
As soon as Zoe finished speaking, Bernd leaned in and said, "It's alright, don't be afraid of losing the bug."
Anyway, he was terrified of the Jiang family's patriarch, and he couldn't help but let his legs move uncontrollably whenever he saw Zoran.
After the stone shattered, a passage was revealed behind it.
He already knew that this led underground, but he was still somewhat shocked when it was revealed to Jiang Xu.
Because this passage doesn't look like it was formed naturally, nor did it look like it was dug randomly; it's clearly the result of meticulous construction.
The surrounding stone walls were polished very smooth, and reflectors were attached to each step, allowing the light from outside the cave to shine in, illuminating the edges of the steps.
"Walk."
At Zoran's command, all the insects began to move inwards, while Jiang Xu and the other insects were protected in the center.
The further down you go, the darker the passage becomes. Just when you can no longer see the passage, the lights suddenly come on all around.
Every nook and cranny in the passageway was illuminated without any concealment.
"Who could have so quietly excavated such a massive underground cavern right next to the capital?" Zoe's voice betrayed no emotion, only a burning curiosity.
"Grandfather Zoran, with the Jiang family's wealth, could they have built it so quietly, without disturbing any insects?"
After entering the cave, Zoran already had a general idea.
Moreover, this passageway was built more than 20 years ago, or even earlier.
His gaze turned cold, and after a long pause, he replied, "No."
Digging is not difficult, building is not difficult.
The difficulty lies in doing this kind of thing under the noses of so many insects.
His words undoubtedly answered the guesses of the insects present.
Jiang Xu gazed at the seemingly endless passageway, and it seemed that all the unusual events of the past few days could be connected by a single thread.
Is this really just a war in four Zerg sectors?
His gaze slowly darkened; he hoped that he was overthinking things.
Apart from the sound of their footsteps, there was no other sound in the passage.
These passages are interconnected, and even those with a map could easily get lost if they weren't careful.
Every intersection is not only chaotic, but also strikingly similar.
