Chapter 1292: The Expedition Team Gets into the Hole

“I guess we’ll split up after we get down there.” After listening to the others’ plans, Lin Qiao nodded as she clapped her hands and said, “Good, let’s get to it!”

The vehicles had been put into the spaces of space possessors. Lin Qiao was one, and there was another in the team from Sea City Base as well. Lin Qiao had met the latter before: Her name was Luo Gefei. She was an aloof girl, a level-six space possessor with great combat skills as well. Before the apocalypse, she was doing a special, very dangerous job: She used to be a mercenary, and the missions she carried out were highly dangerous.

The one leading the team from Sea City Base was Kong Qingming. He applied to Wu Chengyue for the job in order to carry the mission together with Long Qingying.

“All plants in this area have died out. There’s nothing left here, not even a zombie. Whatever came out of this hole was clearly a disaster for the natural environment here,” Kong Qingming squatted on the ground and picked up a stick. After spending a short while observing the area, he stood up as he looked around and gave a sigh.

The earth in that area was dead, full of cracks. Nothing but the brown, gray, and black rocks could be seen in that deserted place, along with some rotten, withered trees.

The space possessors at level five and six put on gas masks and checked their guns, getting ready to get down into the underground world.

Lin Qiao didn’t wear a gas mask, but Long Qingying and the others under her lead each put one on. After all, they didn’t have the level-eight power as she did. As a level-eight superpower possessor, her self-protection system was strong enough to protect her from any kind of poisonous gas.

The ones at level-seven also had strong self-protection systems. Apart from Lin Qiao, Lei Cheng, Xie Longyun, and the person leading the team from Heilong Base didn’t wear gas masks either.

“We’ll take the action if you’re ready!” This time, Xie Longyun made her voice sound before Lin Qiao did. After saying that, she flashed across the air and disappeared. Following her, all the people under her command moved swiftly toward the hole.

The hill that they were on was at least two miles away from the center of the hole. That distance would only take the superpower possessors at level five, six, and seven less than ten seconds. Soon, over a hundred people swiftly flashed to the hole and stopped at the edge.

That was an oval-shaped hole, at least a hundred meters long and fifty meters wide. It was pitch black on the inside, and a gray gas had been coming out of it, drifting in the air.

Xie Longyun stood by the edge of the hole and looked down into the hole with her eyebrows furrowed. With dislike, she waved a hand before her nose and said, “Eh… This smell is so awful!”

Then, she took a small spray bottle out of the hidden pocket of her jacket and sprayed the liquid in it toward her own nose. Only after that did she adjust her expression, putting the bottle back into her pocket and then glancing at Lin Qiao.

“Since we’re going to act separately, who is willing to get down first?” She said that while looking at Lin Qiao. Clearly, she wanted the latter and her people to get down first. In that case, if any unpredicted danger occurred, the people from All Beings Base and Sea City Base would deal with it and give the others the time to react.

How could Lin Qiao not know what that woman was thinking? She had said that out loud so straightforwardly. She not only brought everyone’s attention to Lin Qiao, but also implied that she should not say no. After all, Lin Qiao was a level-eight superpower possessor. People would laugh at her if she shrank.

The woman really had a smart plan.

Lin Qiao didn’t plan to argue with her. She would need to get down into the hole sooner or later anyway. However, she would not serve as a danger detector for Huaxia people like they wished.

Lin Qiao smiled at Xie Longyun and said, “Since Huaxia people do not have that kind of courage, I will go down first and take a look. However, since we’re going to act separately, no matter who goes in first, the result will be the same, right? Unless some people don’t plan to get down at all. If that’s the case, I wouldn’t know what that person really wants.”

Having finished talking, she waved at her people and then leaped into the hole. Following behind her, Duan Juan, Long Qingying, Kong Qingming, Luo Gefei, and the others all leaped down one after another. Watching them jump into action, Lei Cheng glanced at the big dog by his side.

“Erlei, go!” Lei Cheng said to the dog, then leaped into the hole with his people.

“Wow!”

Within a blink of an eye, the people from All Beings Base, Sea City Base, and Green Mountain Base all disappeared from the edge of the hole. The rest didn’t follow them down immediately, but stayed outside to wait, observing the area carefully.

“Let’s go!” As Lin Qiao and her people had all gotten down underground, the man who was leading the team from Heilong Base gave his order. They had spent a short while waiting outside, but as nothing was heard from the hole, the man and his well-trained soldiers leaped in as well. At last, only the people from Huaxia Base and Mongols Base stayed outside. Xie Longyun was still wearing a perfect, faint smile, but her eyes glowed with a cold light.

She didn’t say anything, but raised an arm and swung downward. The people behind her got into the hole following her movement, but she herself stayed outside by the edge of the hole.

As everyone else leaped into the hole, she turned and looked around. Then, she took out a face mask and put it on before leaping down.

Feeling herself falling, Lin Qiao calculated how deep the hole was based on her falling speed and time. The hole was vertical, not tilted like the path that led into the underground gorilla nest.

After about four seconds of falling, Lin Qiao landed on a solid surface. The surface wasn’t flat, though. She saw the ground before landing, so she reacted nimbly and landed safely.

Woosh! Woosh! Thud! Thud! Hearing the noises caused by the others landing, Lin Qiao counted the people.

“Let’s go!” She said to the others after confirming that everyone was there.

The hole was actually a huge earth crack. The rock face was no longer vertical where they were standing. It was tilted toward the center of the hole like a very cliffy ramp. But still, it provided Lin Qiao and her people with a foothold.

After landing on the ramp, everyone leaped further downward.

The rock faces on both sides of the hole tilted toward the center. Lin Qiao and her people landed their feet on the rock faces left and right alternatively while leaping further down into the hole. With places to land their feet, the group of high-leveled superpower possessors moved further deep underground more easily than before.

Soon, the space in the hole grew smaller and smaller. From the area where the rock faces on both sides were only meters away from each other, a wider space was suddenly seen below.

Lin Qiao nimbly landed near the lower edge of the rock face and squatted as she looked down into that space. The lower part of the hole was very narrow, looking like a crevice from the other side. Both ends of the crevice couldn’t be seen. Below it was a massive, empty space, the bottom of which was flat.
