156 The Cave Is Alive
Selma Payne’s POV:
“That’s right.” Looking at the scratch marks on the rock wall, I had a strange feeling that the hard rock wall was slightly wriggling.
Everyone wanted to say sothing, but no one opened their mouths. They didn’t know what to say. Everyone’s brain cells were not enough to decipher this phenonon.
“Could it be that ti and space are already in chaos?” Aldrich speculated, “We always thought that ti and space were in the process of distortion but is there a possibility that there is no stable space-ti foundation here from the beginning, but that it was chaotic and disorderly from the mont it was ford?”
That was why the third group encountered the fourth mark. They were faster than us and t the mark we left in the future! I was enlightened.
But then, I was discouraged. Then, it was useless to calculate the ti difference through marks. If ti was chaotic, it was aningless to figure out its rules.
Everyone was a little embarrassed, and their initially insufficient confidence was weakened again.
“Speaking of which, don’t you guys think that it’s a little too cold right now?” Linda sneezed. “I feel like I’m standing in a freezer naked.”
When she said that, we also felt the sudden drop in temperature.
“If the space is chaotic, then the inside and outside of the cave are not constant.” Aldrich said, “Who knows, maybe the cold outside the cave has been transferred into the cave. That’s why we’re so cold.”
However, there was no way out of the cave. We could only continue exploring the cave, hoping to find a way out before we froze.
Even the ‘next level’ would be better than freezing to death!
We didn’t give up on making marks because Master Hayley said, “We must at least make the fourth mark. Otherwise, the third team won’t encounter the fourth mark from the future and won’t be able to send the signal. This creates a ti paradox, which will only worsen the situation.”
When we finished marking the fifth mark, we finally t the others.
The second group was about to send the signal according to our third mark.
“Hey, Sam!” Frank called out to the leader of the second group. “Are you guys alright? Did you encounter any problems?”
Sam was obviously shocked to et us. We’d finally t him. “We’ve been walking for almost six hours and didn’t et anyone. We didn’t receive any danger signals either. We were so worried!”
After Frank briefly explained the current situation to Sam’s team, Sam said in shock, “We sent the signal after we received the first signal, which ans that the fastest team is Kerner’s team?”
“I’m afraid they’ll be gone for even longer,” said Frank.
At this mont, the temperature in the cave dropped even more. I even felt dizzy. Under the dim light, the rock wall seed to hide in the dark and quietly wriggle.
With a flash of inspiration, I realized the relationship between ti and temperature. “Could it be that the faster ti flows, the lower the temperature?”
When I said that, everyone agreed with .
“That’s right,” said Frank. “After eting up with you, I did feel the temperature around drop again. After eting up with Sam, the temperature dropped drastically.”
We looked at the thermoter that we carried with us. It was already -20 degrees Celsius.
At the entrance of the cave, it was only -4 degrees Celsius.
The faster ti flowed, the lower the temperature would be. It wouldn’t be long before we freeze to death here!
Just as we were at our wits’ end, a voice suddenly ca from behind us.
“You’re all here?”
It was Kerner.
“Moon Goddess! We finally found soone. You have no idea how long we’ve been walking. It’s been twelve hours. We were suspecting if there was a hidden fork in the road that we’d missed!”
As expected, Kerner’s group had the fastest ti flow, and the temperature dropped even faster as soon as he arrived.
The thermoter was displaying -25 degrees Celsius.
We quickened our pace and went deeper into the cave, but the cave seed to lead to the earth’s core, so deep that the bottom could not be seen.
At -30 degrees, one of the team mbers finally couldn’t hold on any longer and fainted.
It was not because of the cold. It was because of low blood sugar. After Master Hayley inspected the items, she said, “The resources in the base are indeed useless. They can’t provide any nutrition.”
We should have thought of this earlier. How could a pile of ‘non-existent’ material provide heat and nutrients?
After dealing with the ergency, we carried the team mber on our back and continued on our way.
At this mont, Dorothy suddenly said, “Is the rock wall moving?”
We carefully observed our surroundings and found that it was indeed so!
This ant that my assumption earlier was not an illusion!
However, an even stranger thing happened. Under everyone’s gazes, the mark that Frank and I had just made was slowly flowing over. It was like a leaf floating in a small stream, moving faster and faster with the water.
“It’s really strange.” Soone mumbled, “This phenonon is like intestinal peristalsis. Could this cave be alive? ”
That was right!
I suddenly thought, ‘Why couldn’t the cave be alive?’
I thought we were in a low-quality ‘ga’, but what if it wasn’t a program full of bugs but another form of life?
“Perhaps we’re its food, moving forward in this wireless roving intestine!”
