Celestial Masters Alliance

"What?" Hearing this sentence, I was ignited with hope again.

In less than a minute, my eyes began to adapt to the darkness, and there was a shimmering blue light in front of me. My heart sank, and I said passively: "It's normal for the ore to flash! It won't explode on its own!"

"That's not surprising. There are frequent earthquakes here. Because there are few people around, there are no casualties. Naturally, no one will delve into the cause of the earthquake. I have the battery for the emergency light in my bag. Try not to turn on the Wolf Eye flashlight again." Huang Xiao patted me, took off the arm on my shoulder, and rummaged for the battery in the dark.

I looked for the sound and handed the emergency light to him, staring at the blue light in trance. A strange attraction directed all my attention there, but my body still followed the command of my brain and stayed in place. The lights turned on. If the light source arrived a second later, I would be out of body.

"Let's go!" I picked up Huang Xiao from the ground, my movements a little irritable and rough. Zhao Shuang frowned and glanced at me before picking up Huang Xiao.

The glowing spot was farther than expected, and when we could hardly move any further, we finally reached the open and wonderful world.

Even the largest temples or churches in the world cannot compete with this place. This place is made of a whole piece of fine sapphire, just like a three-dimensional Milky Way. The crystals in the blue-green ore are shining brightly, dotting the entire Milky Way. I suddenly felt that I became extremely small, like a speck of dust. And I, this speck of dust, am feeling despair because there is no exit here.

The jumping blue light was emitted by the fires neatly scattered around the wall, and the fuel of the fires shocked me even more, it was ore. Small piles of ore were placed in a brass tripod the size of a casserole, burning with a blue flame like natural gas.

"This kind of operation can still be done!" I couldn't help shouting in a low voice. In exchange for a glance from his companion.

In this shocking scene, there are actually simple tables and chairs that are particularly unsightly. The two dead bodies leaning on the tables and chairs are well-dressed and covered with a layer of frost. There is no sign of decay, just like the frozen bodies in a funeral parlor. The body in the closet. There was a special copper lamp placed on the table, and the blue flame illuminated the body strangely. There were the most dead bodies surrounding them. I guessed that these two people must be operations officers.

The three of us moved towards the table in a tacit understanding, "These dead bodies on the ground had their arteries bitten open!" Zhao Shuang's words made the blood in our bodies coagulate, "bitten?" There are bloodthirsty creatures here!

"The people here were burned to death, but their clothes are intact!" Huang Xiao moved to a place full of wooden boxes at some unknown time, and loudly reported the survey results to us.

"What the hell are you doing all the way!" I yelled, and Huang Xiao immediately ran back and stood next to us.

The air was as quiet as condensation, and the fear of the unknown made me break out in a cold sweat. Sweat soaked through the clothes again, dissipating the thin frost that had just formed on the clothes. The rapid surge of adrenaline made me feel cold. I slowed down my breathing and focused all my attention on my senses.

The water droplets on the ore seemed to be counting time for us, tick-tock-tock, but nothing happened. I could make out everyone's breathing, but otherwise it was dead silence.

Huang Xiao was the first to relax: "No one has been here for decades. Even if there are any animals, they should have died long ago. There is no need to be nervous!"

Zhao Shuang also twisted his neck to relax and began to examine the books and materials piled on the table.

"You're back!" A voice came from the bottom of my heart, making me twitch all over and look around, but there was nothing.

"Did anyone speak just now?" I asked loudly.

"No!" Huang Xiao, who was rummaging through the wooden box, replied impatiently.

Zhao Shuang raised his head from the table, looked at me and shook his head gently.

"You're back..." The voice sounded again, and I followed the voice.

In the corner where there was no fire, a pale corpse lay slumped. I couldn't see clearly, so I lifted the nearest bronze tripod over. That's right! It was brought over. The bronze tripod has elegant and complicated relief patterns, beautiful ear handles, and a handle on it. I have not done any research on these things, so naturally I cannot tell when they were produced and what they were used for. In my opinion, it is just a tripod-shaped lantern. The reason why it is identified as brass is that it does not have the luster of gold and has a few gray spots.

The temperature of the blue flame is similar to that of natural gas, and the burning handle may be a little hot, but it will not cause any harm. I held the weird lantern and got close to the body to see clearly. The body was discarded next to an almost transparent coffin. He was small, probably a child of seven or eight years old, or younger, because I was familiar with the child's growth state. No idea. He had no head, his neck had been chopped off, and he was naked. He was a boy. There is an arrow stuck in the chest. This arrow is much shorter than the arrow used for training shooting. It is as thick as the steel bar in the load-bearing column. The arrow body is golden yellow, very dazzling, and it feels like gold. The shape of the arrow shaft is so exquisite that it consists of three bird feathers twisted together.

A strange sadness hit me. My heart felt like it was being kneaded repeatedly by ruthless hands, and I felt the urge to vomit. Could he be the one calling me?

I gently touched the corpse with my frozen hands. The corpse was colder than my hands, but not stiff at all. His fists were clenched and his toes were slightly curled. His skin was bluish white and very clean, even the neck opening. There was no blood. What surprised me was that the muscle tissue at the break of his neck was bluish white, and the bones of the cervical vertebrae were flat and pale, like fish bones. This is definitely not a normal human body.

"Come and look, there is a strange corpse here!" I shouted.

"Every corpse here is strange!" Huang Xiao replied to me almost immediately.

Zhao Shuang raised his head from the pile of information and glanced at me: "Remember the story about the boy who cried wolf? Don't make any noise if you have nothing to do."

I was speechless.

"There are clothes here, we can change into them!" Huang Xiao raised the trophy in his hand.

"Was it ripped from a dead person?" I asked.

"There are a few suitcases here, I guess they belong to the two leaders. It's a little small, but it's better than nothing."

Zhao Shuang and I immediately got together. I had long wanted to get rid of the wet and smelly clothes on my body.

Huang Xiao rummaged through several suitcases, and the clothes inside were well preserved. I picked up a shirt and put it under my nose and smelled it. There was no peculiar smell. The coat was very elegant, a wool tweed plaid suit, and dark blue double-breasted wool. The coat is a bit old-fashioned in style, but it is very easy to hold in your hand.

I let Zhao Shuang and others choose first, and then I put on a shirt and woolen coat. The clothes were tight on my body and could not be buttoned. It seemed that the owner of the clothes was quite short. Huang Xiao changed into a set of work clothes. He is shorter than me, so it doesn't look out of place when he puts it on. I helped Zhao Shuang change the bandage on his leg and asked him to put on the pants I was wearing. He put on the plaid suit. I almost laughed out loud.

After changing our clothes, we went to investigate separately. I took a shirt and put it over the tiny body, then placed it back in the clear coffin. "Poor child, if I can find your head in my lifetime, I will definitely send it back to you!" I don't know why I said this, maybe out of pity.

The headless boy's fists slowly spread out, and something fell out of his right palm. It landed in the coffin with a crisp "ding" sound. I picked it up and looked closer at the fire. It was a blue plate. Dragon ring, that ring is carved from a single piece of stone and is extremely exquisite.

"No food!?" Huang Xiao kicked down the wooden box and cursed, which shocked me.

"That's not the most important thing. Have you found the medicine? You and Zhao Shuang need treatment now!" I asked quickly.
