Chapter 54: Human Shadows

"What was that?"

"???"

"???"

"Is it live-streaming?"

"Everyone stop watching, it was probably shut down by the officials!"

"I suspect Heize has become a spirit!"

"What did you all see at the end?"

"I only saw a flash of Gold light, then someone shouted 'careful,' and the live-stream room was shut down."

Although the live-stream room had already gone black and been shut down, the chat area was still packed with people.

"What on earth happened?"

"I suspect this is scripted; this is a variety show."

"Right, why did everything come to an abrupt end when the Gold light appeared?"

These people kept refreshing the comments.

However, the live-stream room still did not light up.

At the same time, in the Dahuang Mountain Range, Liu Chengchao lowered his voice and asked, "Is everyone alright?"

"I'm fine."

"No problem."

Liu Chengchao looked over; everyone was there.

It was just that their complexions were not very good, looking somewhat shocked, uncertain, and pale.

Moreover, the security personnel who had been at the very front were now unconscious.

An expert took a look: "It's just an Ordinary faint, it's not a big problem."

At this moment, everyone looked at each other, still feeling lingering fear.

They also had not figured out what exactly had happened.

It seemed they saw a burst of Gold light, then a powerful shockwave came, and then they retreated rapidly.

Determining there was no immediate danger, the people present began to recall what had just happened, looking for the cause.

"Just now... what exactly was it?" an expert asked.

He felt it was somewhat absurd.

The Gold light from just now, as well as the powerful shockwave, were a bit beyond his imagination.

If it were modern weaponry, they would easily accept such a result.

However, the things being excavated now had been completely buried for a full thousand years.

In this cave, what kind of thing could cause such a scene?

The people could not help but recall the records on the stone wall: after Heize's corpse died, it still produced many anomalies, tormenting the last survivor.

Could it be that the Wolf Tribe survivor did not have mental problems?

But that it was real.

At this time, Wang Jiao's hair was a bit messy, and there was a look of terror on her face.

"Just now, I think I... saw... several human shadows in the Gold light."

Wang Jiao's face was pale, her pupils dilated, and her voice was intermittent.

"Human shadows? Are there still living people inside?" an expert exclaimed.

An archaeology trip had turned into a horror movie.

"You couldn't have seen it wrong, could you?" an expert reminded her from the side.

"I couldn't have seen it wrong!" Wang Jiao said firmly, still feeling lingering fear.

Her memory had always been very good.

At this time, a security guard spoke slowly: "I think I also saw human shadows where the Gold light was, and it wasn't just one person."

Everyone was silent.

If only Wang Jiao had seen it, it could still be an illusion.

With two people having seen it, that became intriguing.

"Could it be a mirage?" an expert said.

"The conditions for a mirage to form are very harsh.

There is no light here, and the atmosphere in the Dahuang Mountain Range does not seem very stable either.

It is not enough to form a mirage," another member of the expert group immediately denied.

In fact, many people recalled the records on the stone wall.

Could it be that Heize was truly an enemy of ten thousand?

After killing people, too much killing intent gathered within the body, subsequently causing anomalies?

Of course, as experts in various fields, they had received high-quality education.

They were still young and strong, had not yet reached the moment of life's end, and had not yet begun to believe in theology.

"How about we take another look?" an expert suggested.

They were only separated from that Gold light by one turn.

As long as they turned the corner, they would be able to see that Gold light again.

Of course, the danger from just now could still possibly happen.

"Old Liu, why don't we retreat first?"

"Since we have already found this place, what if other dangers appear if we go in further?"

"Wait, we can apply to use drones or other automatic filming equipment to enter," a security officer suggested.

Liu Chengchao looked at the unconscious security officer on the ground and finally gritted his teeth and agreed: "Fine."

Dahuang Mountain Range.

Miss Jia looked at the translated text, a strange expression appearing in her eyes.

"Qin Yi... tell me, is it really possible for Heize to hold off ten thousand alone and Slay the Wolf Guard?"

The translated text here was mostly compiled from the stone walls.

Now, an incident had occurred in the stone cave.

Miss Jia naturally knew about it as well.

At this moment, quite a few of the compiled translations were placed before her.

"I probably... don't believe it." For some reason, at this moment, Qin Yi suddenly thought of the young man she had seen when she was with the Ma family.

If it were him, would he be able to hold off ten thousand alone?

Just then, the head of the Dahuang Mountain Range expert team, Li Yangji, shouted from outside the door: "Miss Jia..."

"Enter."

Li Yangji hurried in, beads of sweat still visible on his forehead.

"Miss Jia, more new text has been translated."

Li Yangji handed the paper document in his hand to Miss Jia.

Miss Jia took the document and began to read it seriously.

These newly translated texts were from parts of the stone wall that were previously damaged and unrecognizable, but had now been simply restored and translated.

"Heize is not at peace even in death!"

"Every time I pass that corner, I can see Heize as if he were still alive.

I hear his voice, I hear him mocking me!"

"I see the scene of him sweeping us away with a single Spear again; this is not a dream, it is real!"

"I must stay away from him, that corner, I will never go there again!"

Miss Jia stopped reading here.

She noticed a term: corner.

She had also been watching the live broadcast at the time.

Liu Chengchao and his team had entered that very corner, seen a flash of Gold, and then the live broadcast feed had vanished instantly.

Liu Chengchao had already reported the situation at the time to her.

"How is the investigation inside the cave going?" Miss Jia couldn't help but ask.

"That corner cannot be entered.

We arranged for six groups of security personnel to enter in batches.

Anyone who stepped into the corner suffered an impact and fell unconscious immediately."

As Li Yangji spoke, his face carried deep confusion.

This matter was far too bizarre.

"This shockwave is much larger than before."

"What about Plan B?" Miss Jia asked.

Plan B was not to let people enter, but to have automatic filming equipment go in.

"There is a certain shockwave inside; we are currently modifying the automatic filming equipment to adapt to the environment inside," Li Yangji replied, looking at the two women before him, his face showing an expression of reverence.

He still hadn't figured out Miss Jia's identity even now.

As for the Qin Yi beside her, he knew her status was extremely noble.

Even the current helmsman of the Royal Family was very respectful toward her.

"Regarding the interruption of the live broadcast, how was it explained to the outside world?" Miss Jia asked.

"Our staff has already issued a notice that rocks fell in the cave and damaged the equipment.

Because there are safety hazards in the cave, the subsequent live broadcast will not continue inside the cave," Li Yangji said slowly.

Miss Jia knew that the current live broadcast was only showing the Ordinary excavations outside.

"By the way, Miss Jia, I just received information from above that if the live broadcast inside the cave is to continue, it will not be open to the Ordinary public for the time being.

Or, it will be delayed by five minutes.

This is the intention of the Cabinet," Li Yangji said, watching Miss Jia's reaction.

The Cabinet was the true power holder of Daxia.

Even the Royal Family treated the Cabinet with great respect.

After all, the Royal Family were mascots, while the Cabinet held the real power.

The gaze of the Cabinet had clearly turned toward the Dahuang Mountain Range, and now they were officially intervening.

"Fine, the cave... will not be broadcasted then." After thinking for a moment, Miss Jia made this decision.
