My Endless Life
Chapter 411 The Return of the Python
In front of the huge stone monument, the green tent collapsed to the ground, and unknown instruments were scattered around.
The leading blond woman's eyes did not linger too much on the stone tablet. Instead, she first looked back and forth for something on the many instruments on the ground.
Finally, her eyes lit up, and she suddenly ran forward and rummaged through a pile of scattered instruments.
After a while, the woman rummaged through the pile of instruments and found a sealed metal container. She checked it up and down and made sure that the container was not damaged, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Annie, is this...?"
Sun Xiaoqing stepped forward to ask in a timely manner.
But the blond woman named Annie did not answer Sun Xiaoqing's question. She glanced at Sun Xiaoqing and answered perfunctorily:
"This is one of our purposes. I'm sorry, but it's confidential, so I can't tell you."
"Dr. Marshall, are we retreating now?"
The bodyguard responsible for protecting this group of exploratory experimenters, after checking the camp, stepped forward and asked Anne.
Anne Marshall is her full name, so these 'bodyguards' call her that.
Annie held the large container, looked up at the five stone tablets standing here, and said:
"We haven't figured out what these stele are for."
As soon as Annie finished speaking, the black man who was the leader of the protection team came over and said to her:
"Dr. Marshall, Dr. Anthony is dead, and now our weapons are completely useless! You can't expect ordinary people like us to use tactical daggers to fight those behemoths! If we continue to stay here, we will all die!"
What the black captain said makes sense.
On the first day, they discovered that they couldn't use technological props here, and they should actually go back.
But Dr. Anthony insisted on going deep into the rainforest, and they really couldn't find the way back, so they had no choice but to move forward.
But now on the fourth day, Anthony and the others couldn't find what they were looking for. Instead, more than half of the team members were lost!
Two of the four scientific expedition team members died, and half of the ten guards who had experienced many battles and received special training also died because of the cover!
If you continue to stay here, the remaining half may not survive long!
It would be better to take advantage of the fact that the two Oriental women who accidentally entered here are still there and follow them back the way they came to find the exit.
No matter what happens, they can find a way out of here.
The black captain thought so.
Anne was a little impatient when she heard this. She turned to the black captain and said:
"Do you know what's going on now? The end is coming soon! People all over the world are waiting for us to find a way to prevent the end! Now that you have finally achieved some results, you let us go?"
Annie pointed at the black captain's nose and cursed.
Not to be outdone, the black captain said coldly:
"I don't know if we can save the world, but I know that if we don't leave, we won't even be able to save ourselves! Dr. Marshall, we shouldn't stay here anymore."
"you--!"
Annie's face turned blue with anger from the black captain, and she pointed at him with trembling fingers, without saying a word for a long time.
Li Qiao looked strange from behind and couldn't understand anything. She asked Li Qi on her chest in confusion:
"Why are they quarreling?"
"One wanted to leave and the other didn't want to leave, so they started to quarrel."
Li Qi gave a brief explanation and turned his attention to the black inscription facing Annie and others.
Stop the apocalypse?
Before this kind of thing happened at the end of the world, the major forces had not thought about it, and they were even trying their best to do it.
But in the end, no matter who it is, they can only watch the dark day happen and eternal night fall on the earth.
So who gave these people from the Alien Management Bureau the confidence to think they had the ability to save the world?
All Li Qi could think of were the five stone monuments in front of him.
Four of the five black monuments are covered with incomprehensible words.
The text on it is square and square, with one stroke after another. It looks very Chinese, but if you look closely, it looks like words compiled casually by foreigners who don't understand Chinese.
Just because they can stand here and be considered by the Alien Management Bureau as the key to saving the world, Li Qi doesn't think they are of any use.
Rather, since they appear here, they must have their role.
Glancing at the five black stone tablets, Li Qi left Li Qiao and jumped onto Sun Xiaoqing's shoulders:
"Ask her what these stone tablets are for."
"Oh...ah?! Meng——!"
Sun Xiaoqing nodded subconsciously, but then she felt something was wrong, because what she heard was Li Qi's voice.
Turning her head to look, she saw the figurine-sized Li Qi doll sitting on her shoulders, which scared her so much that she almost screamed.
Fortunately, she reacted quickly. Sun Xiaoqing quickly covered her mouth, and when others looked over, she took Li Qi off her shoulders and stuffed it into her pocket.
Li Qi poked his head out of his pocket. When Sun Xiaoqing saw that everyone's attention was focused on Annie and the black captain who were arguing, she lowered her head and asked Li Qi in a low voice:
"When did you come? Just now, Sister Qiaoer asked me to get the doll just to get you here?"
"Don't ask so many questions, and don't get so close. Hurry up and ask the person named Annie what these stone tablets are for."
Li Qi pushed Sun Xiaoqing's face away, hid in his pocket and looked towards Annie.
Sun Xiaoqing was helpless. She dragged her pocket with one hand to prevent others from seeing Li Qi. She walked towards Annie to persuade her:
"You two, stop arguing now. Even if you want to go out, you have to have a way back. Can you still find a way back?"
The black captain turned around and asked:
"Don't you know?"
Sun Xiaoqing spread her hands:
"We also stumbled in by mistake and couldn't find our way out at all."
When Sun Xiaoqing said this, the black captain's already dark face seemed to get a little darker.
Anne saw this and mocked: "I don't know the way out, so you should stay here honestly and complete your mission."
"... Even so, we can't stay here any longer. The giant python has only come once. Who knows if it will come back."
The black captain said, turning around to arrange for the team members to pack up the supplies here.
After he left, Annie sighed, and Sun Xiaoqing came over at the right time and asked:
"What's going on? He doesn't seem to listen to you?"
"No way, I'm only the leader in name, but I don't actually have the right to order him. We are not in the same department."
The error-free version is being read! 6=9+Book_Bar debuts this novel.
Annie explained to Sun Xiaoqing a little bit.
The distribution of departments within the Alien Management Bureau is very complicated. There is a combat department that is responsible for fighting, an investigation department that is responsible for intelligence, a security department that protects scientific researchers, and a scientific research department where Annie works.
Each department is responsible for different areas and has different bosses. Therefore, even a high-level agent from another department does not have the power to order agents from another department to do things for them.
Annie and the black captain Sam were members of the same level in different departments, and only the dead Dr. Anthony was a senior member of the Alien Bureau than them.
But he is dead, so now there are two actual leaders of this team, Annie and Sam.
Because of this, Annie can't order Sam now. Even if Sam is bolder and leads people away directly, Annie has no choice but to follow.
After all, she, an ordinary human woman, could not survive in this dangerous rainforest.
After chatting with Annie for a while and getting closer, Sun Xiaoqing finally asked about the stone tablet.
"Stone tablet?" Although Annie was a little hesitant when she heard Sun Xiaoqing's question, she still explained:
“To be honest, I don’t know what these stone tablets are used for, but I heard that the Ancient Monuments Society had discovered similar stone tablets, and it was precisely because they came into contact with similar stone tablets that the Dark Sky appeared. "
Heritage meeting?
Li Qi, who was hiding in Sun Xiaoqing's pocket, kicked Sun Xiaoqing's waist and abdomen in his pocket angrily when he heard this.
The kick was not too heavy, but Sun Xiaoqing still felt Li Qi's 'anger'. She quickly lowered her head and explained:
"...Don't blame me. I'm just a low-level code member. How do I know what the scientific expedition team of the Antiquities Society encountered."
Sun Xiaoqing's movements were big, but luckily Annie's eyes were still on the stone tablet and she didn't see Sun Xiaoqing lower her head and whisper.
She looked at the stone monuments in front of her and said:
"Dr. Anthony once had contact with the Antiquities Society and saw photos of similar stone tablets. He said...this is the 'prophecy' left by ancient humans. There may be a way to prevent the end of the world here.
"But unfortunately, our time here is too short, and the writing here is different from the writing on the stone tablets you will see at the historic site. Dr. Anthony was planning to take a rubbing of the writing here and take it out for translation, but he encountered a giant python attacking the camp. ”
Giant python…
Although Sun Xiaoqing had never seen the appearance of a giant python, when she saw the huge dragging marks in the camp, she knew that the giant python must be bigger than she imagined.
Fortunately, Li Qiao had something to repel the giant python, otherwise Sun Xiaoqing would not have dared to enter the rainforest.
Because she is more afraid of snakes.
But maybe God knew what she was afraid of. Before Sun Xiaoqing's rejoicing ended, the person in charge of sentry in the distance yelled crazily:
"Snake!! It's a python!! That python is here again!!!"
"!!!?"
The team members who climbed up the tree to observe quickly got down from the tree and ran and shouted in this direction.
Sam, the black man who was packing his things, was stunned for a moment. Then his expression changed drastically and he quickly looked at Li Qiao:
"Miss Li! Do you still have the things you used to drive away pythons?"
"There are two more shots, but I'm not sure if they will work this time."
Li Qiao shook her left hand, and there were only two insect repellent pellets left, which she put into the left hand phone.
"Try it! If it doesn't work, say no more!"
Sam said while arranging the remaining people to get ready to escape.
Li Qiao didn't hesitate much. She looked in the direction of the giant python, jumped onto the tree a few times, and turned her left hand into a gun barrel and pointed it at the giant python.
There were only two insect repellent pellets left, flying out from the muzzle of the gun!
Bang bang!
Two yellow-brown projectiles landed on the giant python's head again, exploding into a cloud of smoke of the same color and surrounding the giant python.
The unpleasant and pungent smell made the python's body twist wildly, but this time it did not turn around and run away. Instead, it stared at Li Qiao standing on the tree with its huge vertical pupils.
This python... seems to be used to the smell of insect repellent pellets.
