Chapter 727 - Nine Realms Riot (7)
This was a cold and deep lake.
Huge ferns extended out of the water, while lush weeds were spread all over the lake.
The entire lake was shrouded in a faint mist. Even if a beam of light from a tactical flashlight shone on it, the surface of the lake would not reflect any light. The deep darkness seed to have swallowed up all the electricity in his hands, giving people an inexplicable sense of oppression and fear.
The surface area of the lake was not as large as they had imagined. It was almost half a football field.
In addition to the vigorous weeds and ferns, there was only the primitive forest they ca from. On both sides of the cliff were cliffs that stood like canyons. Looking up, they could only see the foggy sky. Even the sun could not penetrate the thick fog.
They did not find the ancient tribe, but directly found the 'lake' ntioned in the legend!
"Eric, didn't you say that there was a tribe when you ca last ti?" Barton frowned and asked the question in his heart.
"This... this is different from the last ti I ca here." Ericstuttered nervously, "When I ca last ti, I clearly ca in from that path. Then I saw a house with a black wall."
"It seems that there is sothing wrong with that cobblestone path that we have not discovered."
Natasha recalled what she had seen and heard along the way and analyzed, "Maybe it's similar to the thod to enter Soul Society. When we passed through the cobblestone path, we ca to another' space ', and this is the lake ntioned by the legend."
"If that's the case... bad!"
Barton's expression changed slightly and he turned back to shout, "Let's see if we can still contact S. H. I. E. L. D.."
"No, there is a strong interference here."
The tactical mber carrying the communication device whispered, "We can't send signals to the outside world, and we can't call for support."
"You are right. Natasha."
Barton looked at the quiet lake and could not help but sigh. He pinched his swollen eyebrows and said, "Now we first find the way back. Secondly, we need to confirm if there are any creatures at the bottom of the lake and completely destroy the source of the mutated lizardn."
"What if... confirm the existence of the lizard?"
"With our current firepower, we might not be able to destroy it," Natasha said with a hint of worry in her eyes.
"..."
"It doesn't matter. You don't have to worry about this."
Barton smiled and took out an object from his backpack. "Before we set off, I specially asked Tony to send it over. It was a genuine miniature ark reactor. I was planning to use it to replenish my energy, but now it seems like it has a better use."
"Hiss... ark reactor"
Natasha took a deep breath and swallowed. "Are you planning to detonate this thing here?"
"The miniature ark reactor can support the power supply of a large city for a month." Barton grinned. "But as long as we accelerate the process of the reactor a little, we can have a safe, non-radiation nuclear bomb."
"Tsk. Tony is actually willing to give this to you?"
Natasha's eyes were wide open. This was the highest energy crystal at present.
And she had no doubt that this palm-sized reactor could release a huge amount of energy. It was definitely comparable to a small nuclear bomb. S. H. I. E. L. D. had always wanted to get it, but unfortunately, Tony's confidentiality asures were too good, so he never got the real thing.
"Don't think about it if you want to analyze it. This thing has confidentiality asures."
Barton saw through her thoughts and shook his head. "It can only be used to generate energy or accelerate it into a nuclear bomb. Tony will not tell anyone about its principles."
"Alright. I guessed it."
Natasha looked away and shrugged. "Then we will split into two groups. You will be responsible for exploring the creatures at the bottom of the lake. We will find the way out and save ti to get back."
"No problem. Team three, team four, follow Natasha to find the way."
Barton expressed that there was no problem with this plan. The team of thirty-two people was divided into two groups. Eight of them acted as a group and followed Natasha to find a safe way out, while he led team one and two to explore the lake.
After the brief detachnt ended, Natasha led three teams and four teams, as well as Dr. Eric, and headed back into a thick foggy forest to find a way to go back safely.
"Team one is responsible for guarding the shore. I will go down with team two to take a look."
Barton took out a simple diving equipnt from his backpack. After wearing it, he waved to the others: "After going down, without my order, no one can shoot without permission. Follow behind
and don't fall behind."
A team quickly set up a defensive line on the shore, and the liaisoncontinued to try to contact S. H. I. E. L. D..
The eight people in the second team put on the diving equipnt and checked the condition of the weapons and oxygen. Everything went in an orderly manner, showing their elite identities everywhere. There was no doubt about Barton's order.
Breathing.
Barton took a deep breath and carefully walked into the lake.
Because the diving equipnt he carried when he set off was relatively simple, he did not have any anti-cold equipnt like diving suits. As soon as he stepped into this strange lake, he could clearly feel the cold that invaded his bone marrow, and his entire calf seed to be frozen.
The water temperature here was around ten degrees below zero, and it was very dangerous for the human body to dive for a long ti.
However, they had no other choice. Barton gritted his teeth and activated the spiritual power in his body. Then he slowly sank into the lake. He turned on the night vision goggles on his diving mask and swam towards the center of the lake.
It was cold and dark.
The bottom of the lake was covered with jagged rocks, which were covered with water grass and seaweed.
The light was greatly compressed, and the range of visibility was only about one ter. Apart from that, the surroundings were dark. The only sound in the dead zone was the splashing sound of water when the hands and feet moved.
After the first search, unexpectedly, there was nothing under the water.
There were no horrible creatures from beyond the sky, and there were no monsters or lizardn as imagined. The quiet bottom of the lake was open and open. In addition to the lush water grass and rugged rocks, they did not find anything suspicious.
After a few seconds of rest on the surface of the water, Barton once again dived into the water to search.
This ti they advanced deeper, groping the rocks little by little and turning on the strong searchlightabove them. The lower they went, the lower the visibility range beca. Even with the help of the searchlight, the visibility distance was no more than three ters. Moreover, the lake water beca more turbid. Along the way, there were so withered branches that were as rotten as mud, and so broken buildings.
After swimming for about a minute, they suddenly saw a group of buildings.
An ancient house with a large black wall was actually located under this deep lake. Moreover, judging from the situation, it had been a very long ti. The walls were full of vigorous water grass, which was slowly drifting along with the surging water.
From a distance, the water grass seed to be beckoning them.
He rembered that Eric had ntioned not long ago that the ancient tribe was a house with black walls. He did not expect to see it here!
But the problem was that this place had sunk for at least a hundred years!
How could Eric see a building complex that had sunk for a hundred years, or even communicate with the people inside?
Barton looked at the black house, and had a vague sense of foreboding in his heart.
In the depths of the darkness, there seed to be so kind of eye silently watching their every move, waiting for them to automatically enter their mouths, and then cruelly devour them all.
After pausing for a few seconds, Barton cald himself down and continued to explore deeper into the house.
However, at the bottom of the dark lake that had sunk for nearly a hundred years, a strange purple light suddenly appeared in the dark lake. After flickering for a few tis, it disappeared into the dark environnt again.
In an instant, everyone's minds went blank, their heartbeats accelerated, and their adrenaline was secreting.
Purple light. What the hell was that
The double pressure of the environnt and the heart made Barton almost unable to breathe. His pupils subconsciously expanded.
Could it be that there were other monsters at the bottom of the lake, or after sinking for a hundred years, the ghosts of those houses were resurrected?
A panic that had no origin began to spread in the hearts of everyone.
But what they could be sure of was that the purple light was definitely not an illusion, but a strange scene that had appeared in reality
