My buildings have attributes

So he continued to fall.

"Is this what wingsuit flying feels like? Not bad."

As Chen Ling fell, he mentally complained.

Given the current situation, what can he do? As long as he doesn't die from the fall, he can get out.

One advantage of building systems is that they can be used to construct tunnels.

If you switch to another system, even if you don't die from falling, it's difficult for you to get back up.

Forty-odd seconds later, Chen Ling finally reached the bottom.

The underground was not the land Chen Ling had imagined, but a very deep pool. Or rather, it was more like a small lake in the valley that had sunk underground and connected with an underground river to form a lake.

After Chen Ling fell into the lake, he was smashed to the bottom by a large rock overhead.

Fuck you.

After finally reaching the bottom, Chen Ling's feet touched the ground, and he could exert force.

boom!

Chen Ling smashed the large rock above his head with a single punch, then quickly left the lake and landed on land.

After climbing onto land, Chen Ling looked at the small patch of sky above his head, and his lips began to twitch.

This is damn deep.

Based on the time it took him to fall, he should now be about 2000 meters underground.

Fortunately, this rescue operation wasn't too large.

Any skilled helicopter pilot can fly a helicopter down.

So Chen Ling wasn't in a hurry. Instead, he took out his phone, turned on the flashlight, and began to observe the surrounding situation.

"Holy crap... what the hell is this thing?"

Chen Ling turned on his flashlight and was startled when he saw what was happening not far away.

Chapter Ninety-Four: The Earth's Core Furnace

Inside the fractured underground rock wall, there is a cave.

There is a statue on the exposed part of the grotto.

If it were just a statue, Chen Ling wouldn't be startled. The problem is that the statue is sculpted so realistically, and its appearance is different from a human's, which is a bit frightening.

"Three eyes, a blue face with fangs, and so burly—what kind of race is this?"

After Chen Ling breathed a sigh of relief, he carefully examined the statue.

To be honest, Chen Ling knows a lot about people with three eyes. What about Erlang Shen and the Three-Eyed Clan? Aren't they all three-eyed?

But "blue-faced and fanged" is a bit of a misnomer; aren't those words used to describe ghosts and monsters?

After looking around at the statues, Chen Ling jumped into the cave.

Then he saw some strange things: unknown symbols, or perhaps writing, were carved on the ground, and there were many statues around, which were similar to the ones he had just seen.

On the walls of the grotto, Chen Ling also saw some maps.

However, these maps were too abstract for him to understand.

"I thought it was an alien ruin, but it turned out to be a prehistoric ruin. It's not interesting."

After looking around, Chen Ling didn't see any human remains. As for the deeper passage, he didn't go in.

By this time, the earthquake had ended.

The earth stopped shaking, and Li Lili and the others boarded the helicopter as quickly as possible and flew down to the valley below.

"Chen Ling... Chen Ling... Can you hear me?"

Li Lili's voice came from the sky above. Although the sound quality was poor, it was still audible.

"I'm down here, fly down and save me!" Chen Ling shouted.

The sound was quite loud, causing soil to fall from the surrounding fractured areas.

Upon hearing Chen Ling's voice, Li Lili immediately became excited.

The others were also excited, because if something happened to Chen Ling, they wouldn't be any better off.

The crack is about half the size of a football field. Helicopters can fly down into it, but it requires a high level of skill.

Soon, the helicopter slowly descended, hovering about ten meters above the ground, and lowered the ladder.

Chen Ling boarded the helicopter in no time.

"You scared me to death! Are you alright? Are you hurt anywhere?"

After Chen Ling boarded the helicopter, Li Lili immediately grabbed him and began to examine him.

"Don't worry, I'm not that easy to kill. This height is nothing to me," Chen Ling said with a smile.

Chen Ling wasn't worried at all. Even if the helicopter couldn't get off, he could build an elevator to get up, although that would be a bit scary.

Li Lili checked him over and found that Chen Ling didn't even have a scratch.

"Are you an alien?" Li Lili asked in surprise.

Falling from a height of 2000 meters, even if the ground below is water, is something no human can withstand.

As it turned out, Chen Ling was perfectly fine, jumping around like a madman.

“That’s right, I’m the Giant of Light from the M87 Nebula, here to save Earth,” Chen Ling said, rolling his eyes.

Li Lili was speechless. What kind of time is this to be joking around?

The helicopter flew away from the crevice and returned to the nearest county town.

Instead of going home, Chen Ling called the head of the investigation team and asked him to send some archaeological experts, as he felt there was something going on down there.

He had too little time before; he had only walked around the cave and hadn't actually gone into the passage.

After receiving Chen Ling's message, the big boss breathed a sigh of relief.

It's good that Chen Ling is alright. The earthquake occurred in the vast grassland, where there are no people around. So, although the earthquake was of a high magnitude, there were no casualties.

The next day, Chen Ling didn't go to the mountains; instead, he enjoyed the scenery of the surrounding grasslands.

The cooldown period for the Azure Dragon's power is 10 days. He won't run around during these 10 days. If something happens again this time, he'll really be done for.

On the third day, the archaeologists arrived in the county town with their equipment.

After seeing the photos on Chen Ling's phone, the group of archaeologists didn't even eat; they were so eager to go to the site that they refused to eat.

Chen Ling didn't go along; whether he went or not was completely meaningless.

Since he could access all the data obtained by those archaeologists, there was no need for him to risk going down there.

If an aftershock occurs, wouldn't that be incredibly stupid?

A week has passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Chen Ling arrived at the valley.

Now that the Azure Dragon's power has cooled down, he can go wild again.

"Xiao Liu, what's the situation now?"

Chen Ling entered the makeshift tent and asked a graduate student majoring in archaeology.

"Brother Chen, the professor led his team deep into the passage and found the settlements of several ancient tribes. However, there are too many underground passages, and they haven't explored them all yet," replied Xiao Liu from the research institute.

"Can we confirm the situation of this ancient tribe now?" Chen Ling continued to ask.

"Not yet, we've never been in contact with this tribe before. Based on the information we have so far, this is probably an underground tribe, so this is the first time we've obtained any information about them," Xiao Liu said excitedly.

This fills a gap in human history and is an astonishing discovery in the archaeological world.

After listening, Chen Ling nodded. Although he didn't get an answer, he wasn't actually interested in it.

"Let's go down and take a look around."

Chen Ling, wearing a windbreaker and carrying a backpack, spoke to Li Lili.

"it is good."

Li Lili was also very curious about what was going on below.

No one could stop Chen Ling from going down there.

There was no other way; Chen Ling's bodyguards had to go down with him.

These bodyguards are the same 20 bald men from before. Although they have grown hair now, they are still Chen Ling's bodyguards.

Chen Ling and his group of 22 people, carrying weapons and detection equipment, quickly reached the bottom of the sinkhole by rappelling down the cableway.

They all possess physical abilities that exceed human limits, so they move at a very fast speed.

The underground route map that the archaeologists explored in a week was quickly discarded by them.

Because the path they are now taking is one that even the experts have not yet reached.

"Boss, we're currently at a depth of 3180 meters. The air quality is good, but the temperature is starting to rise. It's already 3 degrees Celsius higher than where we were scanning the passage earlier," a bodyguard reported, holding a detector.

"It's alright, let's keep going. I want to see what's going on down there," Chen Ling said nonchalantly.

It's only around 20 degrees Celsius, far from their tolerance limit, so it can be completely ignored.

They continued walking for about an hour.

By this time, the temperature inside the passage had risen to 43 degrees Celsius, and everyone was sweating profusely.

However, according to the sonar, there was a large cave in front of them.

Five minutes later, the temperature rose to 48 degrees Celsius, and they arrived at the cave.

"This is incredible!" Li Lili exclaimed in surprise.

"Holy crap... Is this the Earth's core furnace? A place where divine artifacts are forged?" Chen Ling was also a bit dumbfounded.

Because what lay before them in the plaza was actually a flowing river of lava.
