C1707 It's Foggy
The sound of the voice inevitably stunned everyone. At the same time, everyone began to look around.
When they looked around, they indeed discovered that something was wrong.
Due to the fact that it was late at night, no one noticed the strange fog when it spread out.
At this time, they discovered that the fog was actually quite dense. They could not see what was happening outside the fog dozens of meters away.
"Why is it like this?"
"There must be something wrong with the fog. Were we tricked?"
"No one has ever discovered this Dragon Creek Canyon before. Have you all heard of this place before? It seems to have mysteriously appeared on the map..."
"Leave, we must leave immediately!"
...
There were too many people, and their emotions were also pervasive. Soon, this was much faster than the fog.
Shi Dali frowned when he saw this scene.
There was no doubt that something that they did not know had happened. But what exactly had happened? There was no definite answer at this time.
Seeing that some people had already started preparing their weapons and leaving in the midst of the commotion, Wei Nan looked at Shi Dali.
"That senior... can suppress them."
Wei Nan was able to reach his current position, so there was no need to say much about the overall situation. Therefore, his thoughts were completely the same as Shi Dali's. It was because panic couldn't solve the problem at this moment. Only by twisting everyone into a rope could the current situation be solved.
However, it was clear that these people in front of them were a little out of their wits. If they wanted to make them behave a little, they could only rely on a powerful force to intimidate them.
Since they understood this point, there was really no more powerful deterrence than the skinny old man in the entire camp.
After hearing Wei Nan's words, Shi Dali immediately shouted.
"Don't make any noise. Anyone who makes a noise will end up like Goldan!"
Sure enough, his words had a good effect. The entire venue immediately became quiet. No one made a sound. They just looked at Shi Dali with sparkling eyes.
Although the fog in front of them was very scary, they might lose their lives.
However, if the old man from Huaxia made a move, they wouldn't have to wait for the danger reward in the fog. Everyone would be killed in minutes.
Since that was the case, then even a fool would know what to choose.
"Senior brother, you make the arrangements."
Seeing that the situation had stabilized, Shi Dali said to Wei Nan.
Shi Dali trusted Wei Nan's ability very much, which was why he was most assured that Wei Nan would take care of the rest of the matters. He needed to meet up with the skinny old man and Black Beard.
Such a strange situation could only bring hope and confidence to his team.
Just like that, Shi Dali returned to the tent. Wei Nan quickly arranged for everyone to search for a way out and try to get in touch with the outside world. Everyone in the camp started to act nervously.
Of course, as time passed, the thick fog in the valley became bigger than before. The temperature of this unknown fog was very low, which made everyone feel a little cold.
...
It was almost at the moment when the people from the research institute disappeared outside the canyon and the fog started to become chaotic.
In a natural cave under the canyon, more than a hundred people were quietly gathered together. They were all wearing black robes and did not know each other's identities. In order to ensure their safety, these people were wearing masks of different shapes and sizes.
As for their eyes, they were staring at the center of the entire cave.
There was a stone platform there. Above the stone platform... There were two men standing face to face. They were dressed the same as the others in the cave. However, one could tell from the way they looked at each other. They belong to two parties.
"The fog has already dispersed. Those people outside can't leave."
This silence continued for an unknown period of time. Finally, a deep voice sounded from the stone platform. Something else began to appear in the cave.
"This is the ninth time that the abnormal human research center has been opened. Blind Old Man said that nine is the extreme. This time, everything will be different."
The man on the left was obviously looking at the man on the right. Even through the mask, he could feel the strangeness in those eyes.
"Let's hope so. We've been waiting for too long. If we can't change our fate this time, there might not be a next time."
The man on the right spoke in an old voice, as if he was exhausted. However, for some reason, he chose to continue.
No one below spoke. Listening to the conversation between the two people on the stage, it seemed that they had already stopped thinking.
"Let's begin. When the fog covers the Dragon Creek Canyon, the second excavation point will be fully opened."
Finally, the man on the left spoke again. Then, he looked at a pattern on the rock.
This pattern was not strange at all. It was a simple symmetrical pattern. Around it, there were five empty round balls.
Then, two metal balls appeared in the left man's hands and he placed them on it.
The man on the right side also remained silent. Basically, he placed the two metal balls on the metal balls just like what he did.
"Four tokens are enough to open the second excavation point, but the fifth one... Where is it?"
Seeing the four metal balls being placed, the man on the left muttered.
It was unknown if he was talking to himself or asking the person on the other side.
However, the person on the other side did not have any intention of answering his question. He merely continued to look at the stone platform. After which, the entire stone began to shake slowly. Finally, this vibration spread throughout the entire cave.
Perhaps it was because he was already quite familiar with this process. Therefore, basically, the big fellow did not do anything special. It merely continued to wait calmly.
Crack!
Finally, the stone platform opened.
Below the stone platform was a black hole.
In the next moment, something slowly rose from the hole. When it stopped, it was like an elevator.
"Alright, you can enter now."
Then, the man on the left made a sound and issued an order.
At the same time, the man on the right made a gesture.
Just like that, the hundreds of people in the cave began to move. They did not communicate with each other, but maintained order. They passed through the thing that looked like an elevator and entered the deep hole under the stone platform.
In the end, there was not much more. Coincidentally, there were a hundred people who entered the cave. Following which, the stone platform closed once again.
Therefore, there was no sound in the huge cave again. Only a few people were left standing on both sides. The two men on the platform continued to look at each other.1
