Chapter 89

"Are you sure you read it correctly!?" Li Runshan's expression changed as expected. He even put aside the matter of asking Yu Hong for help, opened his eyes wide, stared at him and asked again.

"You also have a detector yourself, take it out and test it and you will know." Yu Hong nodded.

"Wipe!" Without saying a word, Li Runshan pulled out a detector, opened the door and rushed out, ignoring the people in the yard. Before they could react, he left the yard, ran to the woodland outside, and pressed the button.

.

Soon, his face became extremely ugly and he quickly returned to the yard. Without caring about the others, he returned to the stone house and closed the door.

"The big one is coming. This is a sign of a big blood wave breaking out! Yu Hong, you go back now, help the people outside, bring as many as you can, otherwise they won't survive tonight!"

"Since I promised you, I won't break my promise." Yu Hong nodded. He also had some ideas on how to settle these people.

"If it doesn't work, you can throw it into the mining area." He suggested.

"It's useless. The mining area is indeed safe, but there is no point in being radiated like a fool." Li Runshan sighed.

"But my place can only house four or five more people at most." Yu Hong thought for a moment and built two more wooden houses in the yard. Three people could live in each. It shouldn't be a big problem. He transplanted the pyroxera outside.

Just a little will do.

It's just that he doesn't need to take care of everything, and having too many protectors won't do him any good.

Wait for the benefits

Yu Hong narrowed his eyes.

"Tell me about the reward? I promised Wei Shanshan and her daughter that they received the reward. If the others want to come over, they can't do it for no reason."

"What do you still lack? What can they give? You can talk about it yourself later?" Lao Li sighed. "These people have a lot of resources behind them, but the problem now is the deterioration of the environment. I'm worried about the response team."

Yu Hong's complexion also changed slightly.

"What are you going to do if the support team can't come?"

".The only thing I can do then is" Li Runshan gritted his teeth and did not continue. With limited resources, it was impossible for him to sacrifice his own life and that of his daughter to protect these strangers.

"Uncle, will we die?" Aisena, who had been standing quietly beside her, suddenly asked. She looked at Yu Hong quietly with her big eyes.

"...No way." Yu Hong looked at her fair and tender chubby face, stretched out his hand to pinch her cheeks, and squeezed out a smile. "Your father is very powerful and he will protect you."

"Nana." Li Runshan gently picked her up and handed her to a beautiful woman who was approaching. "You go and rest with Aunt Lin first. Dad has something to do and will come see you later."

"Yes." Aisena nodded obediently, huddled in the woman's arms and stopped making any sound.

"Okay, I'm going back. Please give me the map of the ruins." Yu Hong's main purpose here is to try to find out the origin of the runes and obtain more information about restraining the shadows.

"Actually, there is no need for a map. The structure of the place is very simple. Just keep walking and go deep inside. The whole thing is like an L-shape. You will know it when you go there. But be careful. Because the ruins are adjacent to the mine, the radiation is very high. There are still possibilities inside.

Changes have occurred, after all, I haven’t been there for a long time." Li Runshan reminded.

"good."

"The thing about taking people"

"You have to do the job yourself." Yu Hong was too lazy to get involved.

Li Runshan had no choice but to open the door and walk out, loudly asking about the situation of the group of people.

Then he asked if anyone was willing to follow Yu Hong to another safe house.

But after asking several times, no one was willing. The crowd changed from the previous noise. Although they were panicked and confused, no one was willing to leave the underground security measures of the post office and go to a safe house with no idea how high the safety factor was.

squeak.

Yu Hong pushed open the door and went out, quietly agreed with Lao Li on a fixed time to turn on the communicator, and then looked at the group of men and women in the yard.

No one paid any attention to him.

Obviously everyone trusts the name of the postal carrier more.

The two leading officers also tried to approach Lao Li to discuss getting some thermal supplies and arranged for important people in their team to live in the underground facility first.

Li Runshan came out to argue with the two of them, and at the same time started recording something with a pen and paper.

Yu Hong was sure that no one wanted to follow him, so he shrugged at Lao Li, meaning it wasn't that he didn't want to help, but that they didn't want to help him at all.

Immediately, he turned around and headed back to his residence.

After returning to the cave a few times, Yu Hong packed up his equipment, weapons, protein bars and water bladders, and quickly headed towards the mining area.

It was still early, but he didn't know how big the inside of the ruins was, so he had to set aside time in advance and make preparations.

After more than half an hour of walking along the forest path, passing through the scorched forest land, and crossing the hills one after another.

In front of a gray-white stone wall that was more than ten stories high, Yu Hong stood quietly in the middle of the stone wall, wearing an enhanced gray lizard suit, holding a mace and a giant wooden shield.

In the middle of the stone wall, there is a narrow crack as high as two people.

The crack is dark and deep, like a lightning bolt in a picture, and there is a slight flow of water slowly flowing out from the ground.

Yu Hong stood in front of this crack.

He lowered his head and looked at the direction of the stream. He found that the stream flowed out of the cracks not far away, then flowed into the stone cracks and disappeared.

There are lush green grass and vines everywhere around the water flow. Although the temperature is starting to get colder at this time, there are still green and tender weeds growing here.

Yu Hong knelt down, gently pinched the tip of the grass with his hand, and held it in front of his eyes to confirm that it was young grass.

Then he put his hand into the stream and felt the temperature.

It's warm, much warmer than outside.

After a pause, Yu Hong took out a cold light tube, held it in his hand, raised it high to illuminate it, and then quickly walked in.

The changes in the environment made him more and more interested in this ruins. Now that the search for the technique has failed, he plans to visit the ruins where the runes were first discovered to see if he can find any other clues.

He had a hunch that as the environment deteriorated, if he didn't come to explore, it might be too late to go out later. It might be even more dangerous.

‘Search quickly and return.’ Before entering the crack, Yu Hong set such a goal for himself.

Wow.

Entering along the crack, the inside becomes wider and wider, and the temperature becomes colder and colder.

Yu Hong is wearing a black bulletproof suit, which perfectly blends into the environment, but the light white air he blows out from time to time when he opens his mouth is a bit inconsistent.

Inside the crack, there were many footprints on the ground and many small pits. It was obvious that many people had gone in and out, and there were traces of dragging heavy objects on the ground.

He carefully illuminated the surroundings. On the stone surfaces on both sides, there were some hollows similar to decorative platforms.

These caves are empty, and most of them have traces of things being placed inside.

"It seems that they have all been evacuated." Yu Hong took out the enhanced detector and pressed the switch.

Di.

The surrounding red value is displayed on the LCD screen: 37.122.

"Already thirty?" Yu Hong's heart sank, and his hand holding the mace tightened.

All the way in, the surroundings became wider and wider, until it was about five meters long, and then it stabilized.

At this time, the height of the cave is also five meters, and the whole cave is like a semi-cylinder, extending towards the mountain.

As we continued to go deeper, slowly, some completely unfamiliar symbols began to appear on the stone walls on both sides.

These symbols were written in black handwriting, and looked like claw marks left by monsters under the green light.

In addition to these, fine gravels also began to appear on both sides of the stream on the ground.

Most of these stones have incomplete lines carved on their surfaces.

They are like pebbles on the beach on both sides of the river, evenly distributed and gray in color.

Click.

Yu Hong bent down, clamped the atomic lamp rod under the creaking nest, and freed his hand to pick up a stone the size of an egg.

The black lines on the surface of the stone looked quite familiar to him.

‘Isn’t this the pyroxene rune? The original original version of the rune!’

He suddenly recognized the prototype of the pattern.

Putting down the stone, he replaced it with another one and found that the rune pattern was still the same, but the stone was broken into pieces, leaving only a small part of the rune pattern.

Yu Hong immediately picked them up piece by piece and looked at them, and found that they all had the same runes.

He stood up and exhaled, and a streak of white smoke suddenly appeared in the air.

Then Illumination looked at the murals on both sides. There was a black article painted on it with completely unknown characters.

Both sides are the same character articles.

He looked at it for a while, completely confused, and then continued walking inside.

Not long after.

The cave has reached its end.

A tall black stone wall completely blocked Yu Hong's path.

There are many dense holes on the cave walls on both sides of the stone wall, and tiny water lines flow silently from the holes.

All water lines converge and fall to the ground, turning into a small stream that winds out of the cave.

Standing in front of the black stone wall at the end, Yu Hong held up the atomic lamp and illuminated the five-meter-high wide rock with green light.

On the stone wall, a huge round arch was clearly drawn in gray handwriting.

This painted door is densely engraved with many unknown symbols and characters.

Yu Hong quickly found several symbols used in the pyroxene runes among these symbolic texts.

He suddenly became energetic, put down the stick, took out a pen and paper from his pocket, and carefully copied down all the symbols that appeared on the door.

Including the symbols from the murals on both sides when walking in from the outside, excluding a large number of repetitions, he copied a total of seven.

But after repeated copying, Yu Hong faintly discovered that these seven symbols not only formed the pyroxene runes, but also formed another more complex large symbol on the mural door at the end.

This large symbol appears frequently in the area above the door of the mural. The strokes are sharp and powerful, but I don't know what it does.

After Yu Hong finished copying, he always felt that the big symbol was a bit strange.

At first glance, it looks like a moving whirlpool. But upon closer inspection, you realize that what you just saw was just an optical illusion.

‘Why didn’t the outside explorers study this symbol? Instead, they only studied the pyroxene runes?’

He doesn't understand.

After the transcription was completed, he searched around the corners for a while and made sure that nothing else was found. All the original furnishings had been dragged away long ago, and he had no choice but to exit the ruins cave.

It was slow when he entered, but much faster when he came out. It only took a few minutes for Yu Hong to stand at the door of the cave again.

‘The runes on the pyroxene are called amplification runes. This newly discovered rune symbol is temporarily called the swirl rune. I hope there will be new discoveries’

Feeling a little disappointed, he looked back at the ruins cave.

'Did the first black disaster really escape from a place like this?'

He recalled the frescoed door at the end that he had just seen. The characters carved on the door, apart from large sections of unknown words, were the pyroxene amplification runes and the newly discovered swirl runes.

It's just that some of the runes on these stone walls are elongated and deformed, some are reduced, some are square, and some are like dough being flattened.

With doubts in his heart, Yu Hong quickly returned to his residence.

He planned to use the black seal to quickly study the function of the swirling runes.
