They escorted Professor Sun and the others back to the entrance of the tomb in the Cangluan Mountain Range. Fortunately, it was not all bad news at this moment. At this moment, a soldier ran over quickly and pointed at the temporary signal tower not far away.
“Sir, we’ve strengthened the signal. In theory, the signal can still be received in the ancient tomb. Therefore, if we can eliminate the matter in the ancient tomb that interferes with the signal, we might be able to keep the archeological team in contact with us in the ancient tomb.” These words made everyone present extremely happy.
“Then let’s give it a try.”
Professor Sun and the others put on their headsets and then entered the deep pit one after another. They waited at the entrance of the tomb for the Macheteman’s reply.
Although they did not know if the earpiece would work after they went in, this was also an expectation for Feng Shaoyu and the others. Looking at the determined figures of the old men, women, and hooligans standing at the entrance of the tomb, Feng Shaoyu and the other two stood on the spot with heavy hearts.
They clearly knew that entering the ancient tomb again this time was very likely to be courting death, but they still did not hesitate. It was not because they were not afraid of death, but because they knew that there were things and beliefs more important than life.
At the same time, outside the border.
Dozens of mercenaries surrounded the entire jade door. All the mercenaries seemed to be on steroids as they kept rushing into the jade door.
Although they were separated by the jade door, they could still see the mercenaries who entered. Soon, they would fight the Macheteman. However, this Macheteman’s ability was indeed extraordinary. Very few mercenaries could withstand three strikes from him.
Usually, he would slash down with his saber. If he could not block it, he would die.
It was clearly a wooden saber, but it actually had a powerful cutting ability. Its might was peerless, enough to split a person’s body. This shocked and terrified the mercenaries. They could even see clearly that this Macheteman was becoming more and more vicious. It was as if he had completely changed into a different person, causing blood to dye the entire tomb path red. Corpses piled up around him like purgatory.
“Fuck! How many more of us will die if this continues!”
“Forget it, I’ll blow up this jade door!”
“If we control the amount of explosives, we should be able to blow up the jade door, but we won’t let the mountain collapse!”
Someone suggested this idea and quickly obtained the approval of the other mercenaries. At this moment, they were really too aggrieved. There was only a crack, so these mercenaries could only enter alone and could not fight openly.
Anyone would feel suffocated by being suppressed by the person opposite them. Soon, a mercenary told Divine Gun this news. Divine Gun did not immediately refuse. Instead, he fell into deep thought.
Divine Gun did not want this to happen. He only hoped to get rid of the Macheteman as soon as possible and let the mercenaries enter the ancient tomb to complete the mission assigned by the boss behind the scenes.
Once they used explosives, they would naturally have to bear some uncontrollable risks. The mountain in this area had always been very fragile. Once it collapsed, this tomb path might very well be buried. At that time, they would lose the only ticket to enter the ancient tomb.
As for the entrance in the border? Even if he was given ten guts, Divine Gun knew that he could not do it. After all, that was the Eastern Forbidden Land. He knew very well that the main goal of this operation was to obtain the things in the ancient tomb.
Otherwise, even if he killed this irksome Macheteman, his operation would still fail and be useless. At that time, he would still be blamed for incompetence. The punishment of the research institute was enough to make him wish he was dead.
It was precisely because of such scruples that Divine Gun allowed the situation to develop to this point. Otherwise, if they sent a few rocket launchers to cover the jade door with firepower, any trouble would be resolved.
But now, with just one Macheteman, their operation was delayed for a full hour. Even Divine Gun was puzzled. Was this Macheteman made of machinery? How could he kill more than 30 mercenaries in an hour without feeling tired?
He had indeed lost his patience. He had never suffered such humiliation.
Therefore, after a short thought, Divine Gun nodded gently and said sternly,
“Reduce the range of the explosion of the explosives and control the amount of explosives. You can blow up the jade door or temporarily blow up the entrance of the tomb, but you can’t let the entire ancient tomb collapse!” “Understood! However, it requires luck because it’s really hard to say.”
“Forget it. This can’t go on. I’ll try my best to control the range of the explosion!”
The new order from Divine Gun caused the mercenaries who had surrounded the ancient tomb to retreat. Then, the two mercenaries placed the special explosives outside the jade door and slowly retreated with the controller in their hands.
The dosage of the explosives had been concocted by specialized personnel, but no one could say for sure how effective it was. Therefore, even Divine Gun was nervous, afraid that it would blow up the tomb.
However, at this point, there was no other way. He could only give it a try.
Su Yun, who saw all of this, quickly understood the other party’s plan. The mountain here was so complicated. Previously, it had been severely mined.
There were already mudslides and landslides. Now, it was difficult to guarantee the impact of the explosives.
However, Su Yun knew very well that he could not let the other party do so.. Otherwise, once the mountain collapsed, the archeological team who had entered the ancient tomb, Chi You’s ancient tomb, and even himself, would be buried forever underground!
