Chapter 161 [doorway](2/3)
"Now, I need you to explain something to me." Chen Nuo grabbed the woman after watching Hisako Ishii tie two oxygen bottles to her body.
Hisako Ishii looked sternly: "What?"
"Going to sea, scientific research ships, submarines, undersea tunnels..." Chen Nuo sneered: "You hide a lot of things from me.
Before your leader was developed, he was just a small ordinary masseur. Even if he got the octopus, how could he have the ability to enter this place?
If it takes so much trouble to reach this door...
That leader of yours back then, how did he come in?
Don't tell me that he swam in from the sea with an octopus in his arms!"
Faced with Chen Nuo's questioning, Hisako Ishii was not surprised at all.
At this point, it’s time to have such doubts.
Hisako Ishii took a deep breath and said slowly: "I'm sorry that I concealed something before... Of course I have the answer to your question. But now is not the time to tell!
In front of you, I am a weak person.
As a weak person, I naturally need some chips to protect myself!
If all the trump cards are revealed to you at once, there’s no guarantee that you won’t just dump me and take this place to yourself!”
Chen Nuo stared at Hisako Ishii's face carefully for a long time.
"So, even if I kill a few of you and go in with the octopus myself, it still won't work... There are other things you didn't tell me about, right?"
"That's right! It's just for self-protection." Hisako Ishii said slowly: "There is actually no conflict between us. After entering, you and I will each take what we have.
You are a person with abilities, and the rewards you can gain will definitely be far greater than those of us ordinary people."
Chen Nuo thought for a while, put on the oxygen mask, and nodded: "Let's go!"
·
The submarine hatch opened and a group of people filed out.
Then two divers moved out the glass cabinet where the octopus was stored in the cargo hold.
The ground here is so bumpy that the pulleys are no longer usable.
After releasing more than half of the water, the remaining water in the glass cabinet was probably only enough for the octopus to barely survive.
The glass cabinet had been lightened as much as possible. After the two divers used a piece of equipment to move the water tank out, they carefully began to carry it forward.
Next to the cave, there is a dark tunnel, and I don’t know where it leads...
Chen Nuo took a look at this tunnel...the height was only a little over two meters.
It's only wide enough for two people to walk side by side.
The divers turned on their mask headlights, and after several beams of light illuminated the tunnel, the two divers in front opened the way, with Chen Nuo and Hisako Ishii walking in the second row.
The four divers at the back, working in pairs, took turns carrying the water tank.
The weight of the octopus, plus the glass box, plus the water inside.
It probably weighs close to thirty kilograms.
Two divers were responsible for carrying it, plus the weight of their own oxygen bottles and equipment. They moved the glass box in pairs, and moved forward very slowly.
Take turns, each group is responsible for five minutes, and then replace people to recover their physical strength.
After going through this for about three rotations...
The tunnel ahead suddenly opens up!
A slightly larger space.
The tunnel ends.
But in front, there are two entrances!
One left, one right.
Chen Nuo frowned.
"Move it over here." Hisako Ishii breathed out.
This woman's breath was a little unstable...after all, she had just been injured a few days ago, and now that she was carrying a heavy oxygen bottle, her body was a little overwhelmed, as if she was forced to endure the pain.
The glass box was moved to the middle of the two entrances.
Chen Nuo began to frown.
He felt that his mental power became more and more stagnant as he wandered through the air...
It's as if an invisible force in the air is getting thicker and thicker, pulling at his mental responses from all directions.
Chen Nuo roughly calculated that the range in which he can freely exert his mental power now no longer exceeds the distance of three meters around him.
If it is further away, the released mental power will be controlled by an invisible force and be lost instantly.
This place... seems to be suppressing the control of telekinesis.
The vitality of the octopus in the glass box is getting weaker and weaker.
Chen Nuo walked closer to it and could clearly feel that the octopus was losing its vitality twice as fast as before!
But as its vitality weakens, the octopus's spiritual consciousness seems to have strengthened.
That feeling of [invitation] is getting stronger and stronger.
After the octopus swam around in the glass box, it then placed its body on the right side of the glass box. Its eight tentacles opened and the suction cups were attached to the glass, but the direction it pointed was very clear!
"Right! Go to the right!" Hisako Ishii said excitedly.
·
After walking into the tunnel on the right, the road ahead becomes narrower!
It was no longer possible for the two of them to proceed side by side, so they formed a long snake formation.
Chen Nuo didn't care, but the diver behind him who was responsible for carrying the glass box became more and more difficult, and his forward speed became slower.
Chen Nuo felt more and more that his mental power seemed to be blocked and weakened again!
The effective sensing range of mental power has been compressed to two meters around you!
After reaching the end of the road.
Once again, the choice lies before us!
This time, there are four passages ahead!!
Hisako Ishii rested for a few seconds, while the woman held her hand against the wall to catch her breath.
"You'd better take a rest, your oxygen consumption is a little fast." Chen Nuo frowned and looked at the woman.
"It's okay." Hisako Ishii shook his head: "I can still hold on for a while."
Repeating the same trick, he moved the octopus out and relied on this golden octopus to choose among the four passages.
Chen Nuo suddenly asked: "Can I enter without a key?
It's nothing more than choosing a path... If you take more people, no matter how many forks there are, and spread them out, you can still find the right direction.
In this case, the function of this key seems to be of little value."
Ishii Hisako shook his head and whispered: "That's not possible.
The leader told me that in this place, if you choose the wrong path... there is an invisible force controlling it. It is a self-protection mode. Once you take the wrong path and enter, it may trigger a destruction device, and then...
…Everyone will be buried in this place.”
Chen Nuo closed his mouth.
Although a little curious.
But... it's better not to try this kind of thing.
At the second four-choice intersection, relying on the octopus' choice, several people entered the second tunnel on the left.
This time, I walked forward for more than ten minutes...
The third choice has arrived!
This time, it’s one of eight choices!
When walking out of the tunnel, Chen Nuo looked up and couldn't help but sigh!
This is a huge space!
This cave under the sea has turned into a cave with a giant roof nearly ten meters high!
The wall in front of me suddenly became smooth!
Moreover, under the mountain wall, there seems to be a faint golden luster!
Chen Nuo squinted his eyes and looked over, taking a deep breath!
Not only Chen Nuo, but Hisako Ishii and the other six divers also took a deep breath!
To be continued...
