Li Jing had also noticed the secret passage under the concrete. She immediately realized its importance. She quickly backed away to one side, then said into her phone, “Yang Kai, Yang Kai. It’s me.”

After she shouted several times, no response came from her phone.

“There is no signal in this cave.” Li Jing looked around in the weak light, then turned back quickly and said to an agent beside her, “Yong, go out to find Yang Kai and call for support.”

Although the agent didn’t know what was going on, he left the cave immediately to call for support.

“Xiao Hang. Team leader Zhao.” Then, Li Jing waved at them, gun in hand, signaling that they could go down and catch the two men. Xiao Hang couldn’t wait anymore. After Li Jing signaled, he jumped down to the hole.

Xiao Hang was strong and lively. He easily jumped down to the concrete slab. He found an internal combustion crusher that had been left aside. It had probably been carried here by the two men before. There was also a lot of dust in the hole.

He cautiously laid down and observed the secret passage at the bottom of the hole. After he made sure that the passageway was safe, he waved to Zhao Yu and others.

Zhao Yu looked at Cui Lizhu. She was very excited and nodded at Zhao Yu. Then, Zhao Yu took his gun and went down toward the hole with Cui Lizhu.

Li Jing followed after them and climbed into the hole from the other side of the cave.

Xiao Hang jumped into the secret passage below without making a sound. When Zhao Yu saw that Xiao Hang went down, he reached for the concrete slab and entered the secret passage after him.

As soon as Zhao Yu entered the secret passage, he felt a cold and wet breath hit him. Zhao Yu realized that the air in this passageway was not circulating, so he immediately used an Invisible Detector.

When the detector started to work, Zhao Yu had a rough look at the secret passage through the weak light from above. The passageway was around three meters wide and two meters high. The walls and ground were all made of cement, which was very similar to an air-raid shelter. In the upper corner of the wall, there were light bulbs from the anti-Japanese wartime period, and there were black wires strung between the light bulbs.

There were grooves for drainage on both sides of the ground, and in the middle, there was the kind of track one would see in a mine.

Although the passageway was fairly empty, Zhao Yu concluded that it likely had been part of a military fortress during the anti-Japanese War period.

Wow! Zhao Yu was shocked. Did the Japanese hide the treasure here? So, the military fortress hidden in this mountain is what the Secret Service had been looking for over the last 80 years?

No one would think that the Japanese would have built a place like this near Yishan Fortress. It seemed that Cui Lizhu might have been right.

At the thought of that, Zhao Yu could not help but feel as if his blood was boiling. So, the gold is hidden here?

As he sat there stunned, the detector displayed its results stating that the air in the passageway was safe. Although there were no problems with the air, Zhao Yu had noticed two things.

First, he had looked around the passageway and did not see the traces of the two people who had come down before them.

They hadn’t entered that long before Zhao Yu and the others. If they had lighting devices with them, Zhao Yu should have been able to see where they went. Maybe the passageway was not straight or the two people were hiding somewhere?

Now Zhao Yu looked back and forth. He couldn’t decide which way the men had gone. He looked up and noticed a section that had been broken open. It was just above the passageway. Because the roof was made of concrete, the men would have used the internal combustion crusher to break the gap.

This passageway was not easy to find, which meant that the two people must have had detailed information about the location. How did the brothers get this information?

By that time, Li Jing had also come down and was passing through the hole to enter the secret passage. Xiao Hang went to help Li Jing.

Eh? Looking up, Zhao Yu noticed that there was something strange about the concrete gap. If the two brothers had just used the internal combustion crusher to break the concrete, it would have been impossible to create such a big gap.

Although Zhao Yu was not an expert in these matters, he felt that creating such a large hole seemed an unreasonable feat in the time they had.

He had been following the two suspects. They couldn’t have made such a large gap within the short time they were there.

It seems that… Eh? Suddenly, just as Zhao Yu was thinking about the gap, a strange noise came from the upper level of the cave. The next moment a black ball suddenly rolled down from the hole. Huh? It was a big black ball. There were many holes on the ball that made it look like a honeycomb.

Li Jing, Xiao Hang, and Cui Lizhu were also shocked when the ball suddenly rolled down, as it was completely unexpected.

Xiao Hang reacted the fastest. Seeing the ball rolling towards them, he immediately shouted. “Watch out,” he said. Then he quickly pulled Li Jing to the ground and laid on top of her.

Zhao Yu’s reaction was not slow, but the ball was coming so fast that he had no time to use his Invisible Bullet Proof Suit or other devices. He immediately turned around and lay down on the ground.

As the black ball hit the ground, many needles shot out from the holes. Because the whole body of the ball was full of holes, the needles flew in every direction. Zhao Yu and others were all hit by the flying needles.

Zhao Yu felt a jolt of pain in his back and a needle hit his ear as well.

Ah! In pain, Zhao Yu reached up and removed the needle from his ear. His ear was bleeding. He wanted to see what the needles looked like. But the lights hanging from the top of the cave suddenly went out. The secret passage abruptly fell into darkness.

In the dark, another two things rolled down from the hole. They gave off a pungent smell.

Just then, the detector in Zhao Yu’s brain sent him a message that displayed many chemical symbols and a red alarm came from his miracle system. Although Zhao Yu didn’t know what these symbols were, he was sure that they were nothing good. Neither were the flying needles.

As soon as Zhao Yu thought about the needles, he felt dizzy. His eyelids were heavy and he felt drowsy. This was not good. The needles were anesthetics. In that critical moment, Zhao Yu forced himself to get up. He used an Invisible Antidote and Invisible Respirator immediately.

The power of the system devices was unmatched. Immediately after Zhao Yu had used the antidote it counteracted the anesthetics in his body, and his drowsiness disappeared.

He quickly used an Invisible Night Vision Device to see what was around him clearly. At that time, he finally saw that the secret passage was filled with a dense fog.

Xiao Hang and Cui Lizhu, both by Zhao Yu’s side, coughed hysterically. Zhao Yu wanted to help them but suddenly heard a rush of footsteps coming from in front of him.

He looked up quickly and saw two tall men, side by side, coming toward them from the depths of the secret passage. They had guns in their hands and wore gas masks on their faces.
