Chapter 1712: Go deep into the Antarctic Pyramid!
The group dispersed, carrying flashlights and tactical lights from their assault rifles.
Take a closer look at the room that Sebastian identified as the 'Sacrificial Chamber'.
It's so eerie, cold and weird here.
Especially the wall full of piles of bones is very creepy.
In addition, the sound of the wind blowing also makes everyone feel scared.
At this moment, we can only stay calm by relying on each other psychologically.
As an 'archaeologist', Sebastian was in a better mood and was in the mood to observe the remains on the stone platform up close.
"These chosen ones are lying here. You see, they are not bound in any way. In other words, they all died voluntarily."
He turned to look at Woods and smiled: "This behavior should be regarded as an honor at the time."
"Haha, you're a lucky guy, huh?"
Woods responded casually, looking uninterested.
At this moment, she heard Robin's low murmur behind her.
"They gave their lives. The hunt began."
"Did you find anything?" Woods asked, turning back.
Robin nodded thoughtfully as he looked at the ancient writing on the floor.
"Generally speaking, many civilizations have traditional rituals of sacrificing hearts, but..."
She slowly raised her eyes and looked at the remains on the stone platform beside her.
"It's just that their hollow cavities are not in their hearts, but in their abdomens. Look, their ribs seem to have been squeezed and broken from the inside by something, and then burst through their bellies and crawled out!"
Robin knew that the "mission" had already begun, so he stopped hiding it and decided to raise the awareness of these people.
By the way, he conveyed his ideas to Clo, Lucci and Bruno.
Because they know a key word.
Facehugger!
This target with the lowest kill points can be guessed by the name.
It is likely that it uses the method of hugging the face to deliver something similar to an egg into the human mouth, and after absorbing enough nutrients, it will drill out of the abdomen.
As to whether it is related to the so-called 'Drone' alien, it is not known.
As for the Alien and the Predator.
Judging from this sentence on the ground, the two parties should be in a relationship of hunter and hunted.
So we became the third party between them?
Robin and Cloe following behind 'the boss' Weyland.
Based on this little information, I made a rough guess about the truth.
Lucci and Bruno didn't think much about it, they just looked around.
"Is there something coming out of the stomach? Wow, that sounds scary."
The dark-skinned Woods felt a pang in his heart, but he still looked cheerful and cheerful on the surface.
at the same time.
Deep underground in this pyramid, the 'Queen' is imprisoned by mechanical devices.
Under the "electrical stimulation", she was forced to give birth to three "giant eggs" covered with mucus.
Then the conveyor belt is activated to send you out of this dark forbidden room.
And above the ice.
Inside the brightly lit whaling station.
As the snow and cold wind whistled past, shrill screams rang out one after another.
Blood splattered, knife lights flashed, and rapid gunfire sounded.
It was not until three tall figures slowly appeared from various places that silence returned.
This side of the pyramid.
Weiland and others discovered that there was another space directly below the "tomb chamber".
It was then decided that some people would stay here while the rest would go deeper.
The former is led by Rousseau, a short-haired female mercenary and Sebastian's partner Tommy, who is responsible for counting everything here. There are seven people in total.
Chloe, Robin, Lucci, and Bruno looked at each other.
But no one raised any objection.
After all, there are no key protected persons among these seven people.
After a while.
The four people are 'boss' Weiland, 'explorer' Woods, 'archaeologist' Sebastian, and 'chemical engineer' Miller.
Under the protection of six security guards including Max, Clo, Lucci and others, they successfully arrived at the open space on the lower level.
The light came on.
Everyone's eyes immediately focused on the large sarcophagus on the steps in front.
Sebastian once again proved that the money given by Wilander was meaningful.
Just by observing the patterns on the two sarcophagi, he could tell that these were the 'Maya Long Count' and the 'Aztec Calendar', and speculated that they formed some kind of combination lock.
This made Robin admire his knowledge.
If you let her come.
Perhaps you can see the 'Maya Long Count' and the 'Aztec Calendar'.
But it will probably take quite some time to determine that it is a password lock.
"Sun, month, year, the time on the calendar is now."
Sebastian frowned in thought.
Suddenly, with doubt in his eyes, he turned to look at Woods beside him: "1904!"
Woods said, "Someone opened it a hundred years ago, and it coincided with the abandonment of the whaling station?"
"What's the date today?"
"October 10th."
"That is, October 10, 2004, so."
Under the astonished gaze of everyone, Sebastian began to operate the three calendar dials on the sarcophagus.
After a few seconds.
The sarcophagus made a noise, its lid began to move, and at the same time, a strong white gas was emitted.
Shit, he really opened it!
"Back off."
While protecting Woods, Robin sighed in his heart: "What a talent! With this level, he can go to Academy City to be a professor of archaeology. It's a pity that he is just an illusion in the dream world."
But immediately their attention was attracted by three things in the sarcophagus.
Miller asked in confusion, "What are these?"
"I don't know." Max replied casually: "What about you?"
Miller shook his head: "I don't know either."
'Max' complained: "Haha, it's a good thing we paid for an expert."
"Yeah, that's good. It's like discovering Moses' DVD collection."
What Miller meant was that this was not a regular item at all, so he knew nothing about it!
But there was something humorous about this statement and it made everyone laugh.
"This should be a weapon similar to a firearm. Judging from its structure, it looks very much like an energy weapon. If you don't know how to operate it, it's best to stay away from it."
At this time, Clo, who usually doesn't talk much, suddenly spoke up to remind him.
"arms?!"
Woods, Sebastian and others said in unison.
Among them, Wieland and Max had shining eyes.
The former was even so excited that he coughed repeatedly, and Woods hurried over to support him.
"No, it's okay. I'm just a little too excited."
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Sebastian on the other side exclaimed, and Woods quickly turned around to look.
Maxwell Stafford, the 'representative of Weyland Industries' and the 'captain of the escort', was found reaching out to pick up the strange 'gun' inside.
"Didn't you hear him? This is a weapon. It's very dangerous!"
"That's why we need to take them away."
Max handed the weapon in his hand to the mercenary next to him expressionlessly, and then went to pick up another one.
"Well, let them be, but we've been here long enough today."
Woods clapped his hands and said, "Let's go back to the whaling station and rest for a night. We'll come back tomorrow morning to continue!"
however.
'Max' said to let them go back on their own and he would continue to explore further.
This caused dissatisfaction among Woods.
Because she always believed that she had the responsibility to ensure everyone's safety, everyone must obey her orders.
At this moment, the third 'weapon' was taken out, and this actually triggered a chain reaction.
First, the 'sarcophagus' closed again.
Then drastic changes occurred inside the entire pyramid.
Some of the stone doors were closed, and some were open.
Some steps automatically form passages that lead deeper into the room.
The scene suddenly fell into chaos.
"Boss, I think the heat surge your satellite discovered earlier seems to make sense now!"
Miller suddenly spoke to Weiland.
"What do you mean?"
"Such a sophisticated large building must have an energy source, and now this energy system has started to operate, ready to..."
Weiland asked again: "Preparing for what?"
