Chapter 1180 Discovery at the Entrance
Few people would joke about their partner’s ex. At such times, they are usually in a weird mood.
However, Gale belongs to the "few" category of people.
Looking at Ancil's dark face and Herta's helpless expression, Gale giggled. She would occasionally use this matter to tease Ancil for fun.
Gail's intention in making this clear is also obvious - she doesn't care if Ancil shares the intelligence they collected.
After glaring at his wife, Anhil asked Ai Bo to get a map and showed Herta the coordinates of several locations that Gaba had found with them before, as well as the predicted route map.
Herta recorded the coordinates and route map, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "Looking at it this way, there is a high probability that Xuanhuilong came out from somewhere near the Grand Canyon, and then went all the way south to After getting here, it turns east or northeast
It should be preparing to return to a mountainous area dominated by karst landforms. ."
"I think so too." Anhil nodded, "If we make a bold guess from this direction, will its destination be the Grand Canyon again? The cause of the formation of the Grand Canyon is still unknown. Even the impact-like changes of the large floor crust should not have formed such abrupt mountains and valleys
The ground is so messy, and the underground is also full of large and small underground spaces such as caves. There may be passages to the depths of the earth. "
"It's a valuable conjecture. We can investigate in this direction. ”
“Ai Bo, mark the next investigation route on the map.”
The brains of the two teams reached a consensus.
Ted used an unprecedented method He lowered his voice and said to the people around him: "Do you think Ancil and Miss Herta are actually more likely to talk to each other? ”
Maka quickly covered his mouth, "You pig, do you know what you are talking about?"
Oshula shook her head repeatedly and muttered like a mosquito, "No, no, no, we can talk. It's just an appearance. It just happens that they have the same judgment.
What if the two of them disagree? It feels like they are arguing, and they are in a cold war. Each one is looking for arguments to defeat the other, continuing to argue, and the cold war continues in an endless cycle."
"Terrible."
Picking up all the gold pieces scattered on the ground, Feng Ying felt happy. Calculating how much he could get, he walked over and asked curiously: "What are you talking about?"
"Nothing! I'm saying that all this gold belongs to you. After all, it was Ancil who found it!" Maka spoke before Ted Hu Lie.
“Oh, how embarrassing is this!” Feng Ying laughed so hard that her eyes were bent, and she carefully stuffed the gold into the bag beside Amber.
Although the amount of this batch of gold is not too much, it far exceeds the little gold sand she found before.
An Xil, who noticed Feng Ying’s behavior, came over and gave her a beating. Before the guide insect could extract the information, you put away these clues and items.
Do you really think we are here to find gold? !
The gold flakes found here are much more complete than the scattered gold sand and gold grains before. The scattering time is also shorter, and the guide worm has extracted a more complete atmosphere.
In the insect guide cages of Ancier and others, the fluorescent blue light became brighter, and the guide insects were much more active than before.
Although it is not yet to the point where we can directly lead the way, it may be because there are no other traces nearby. As long as we are slightly closer to the next breath trace, we can start guiding.
Compared to the insignificant belongings, this is the harvest that truly makes Ancier satisfied.
The group, which doubled in number, came to a nearby camp for a short rest and enjoyed a delicious barbecue meal.
The taste of the sea bass was disappointing. Although the meat was of good quality, it had an earthy smell. It may need to be processed in advance to make it taste better. Unfortunately, none of them are particularly good at cooking.
The odd-faced tribe, cats and dogs ate very happily. Their taste buds are different from humans, so the fishy smell is not a disadvantage for them.
The meat of the Mud Ichthyosaurus is a real delicacy. Burn the dirt and mucus on the surface of the skin, and then tear off the rough shark skin-like skin to reveal the pink and tender muscles.
It is very delicious simply grilled and sprinkled with some salt. It tastes less like animal meat and more like fish such as eel.
Feng Ying regretted not bringing back more. Even if there were no other monsters visiting the corpse, it would probably not be edible after being soaked in muddy water for a long time.
After eating and drinking, and taking a brief rest, the two teams that had reached a cooperative relationship set off together and headed northeast on the pterosaur.
Different from the Gobi desert in the north and the swamp plains in the south, the terrain in the east and even the northeast of the Big Ant Mound Wasteland is very complex.
There are many strange rocks and rocks protruding for unknown reasons. Together with the huge ant mounds that can be seen everywhere, they form a maze-like hilly area.
In order to search, they flew at a very low altitude and as slowly as possible.
Anhil and Feng Ying simply gave up flying and rode hounds to gallop between the rocks and hills. This speed and comfort were far inferior to flying, but they could search in more detail.
Just tiring out the two-toed hound.
Fortunately, their efforts paid off.
While passing through a deserted mesa, the insect guide cages on the waists of the two men emitted light, and fluorescent blue guide insects flew out, guiding them in the direction of the source of the breath.
The most difficult part of the survey is over, and once the guide insects begin to navigate, the rest of the work becomes much easier.
The two immediately sent out a signal to let their aerial search partners land.
Following the guidance of the guide insect, they discovered two more traces in succession.
One spot is a small amount of gold dust scattered in the sand and gravel. If there were not guide insects, such traces would almost be ignored.
The other place is the scratch marks left on the rock wall in the narrow part of the canyon.
This trace is equally inconspicuous.
If it weren’t for the fact that there were a few gold dust and pebbles scattered on the ground, who would be sure that this was a colorful dragon and not another large monster such as the horned dragon and the dragon-killing dragon that passed by?
The extraction of breath is becoming more and more perfect, and the reaction of the guide insects is becoming more and more active, which means that they are getting closer to the target.
While everyone was happy, they also became wary.
In order to avoid encounters, hunting cats were sent out as scouts, and the two editors who lacked the ability to protect themselves were also sent on tooth hounds to retreat as soon as an emergency occurred.
Of course, Ancil switched to walking in advance. Even if the strong wind could carry two people, and even though Gale might not care that much, he would not be stupid enough to share a ride with Hertha.
The group of people moved forward cautiously, and did not return to the camp after nightfall. Instead, they found a relatively safe mountain col to camp, and continued to follow the guide's guidance after dawn.
On the next day, which was also the afternoon of the third day that the "Phnom Penh" team came to the Big Ant Mound Wasteland, they came to a basin near the Grand Canyon.
In the distant past, this place was once a lake, but due to geological changes such as earthquakes, it eventually collapsed into a deep basin.
At the very bottom of the basin, there is a huge crack with a length of more than a hundred meters. It is like an open mouth on the earth, bottomless.
The guide insects in the insect guide cages of several people emitted a bright blue light, flying and converging to form a star-like light path, leading directly to the crack and the unknown underground world.
After staring at the dark crack in the ground for a few seconds, Anhil waved his hand.
"This is it, let's retreat."
Some readers are guessing whether something will happen to Herta Ancier - this is definitely not the case. The role of Herta will still have some scenes, but it is purely to replace " The role of an experienced orc scholar.
After all, the game mentions that this scholar is too old and is no longer suitable for field operations. And then when we go to the ice field and have contact with the beast-tangled tribe, we still need scholars and translators to communicate
