Second Senior Brother

Chapter 883 Cooperation

Seeing this situation, the other researchers dared not say anything more, only nodding incessantly. After all, although Yun Meng was their direct superior, in the end, it was Secretary Bai Lin, not Yun Meng, who was managing them now.

Moreover, the involvement of large instruments would indeed bring convenience and benefits to their work, making it unnecessary to refute Secretary Bai Lin's words.

Yun Meng saw that his researchers also nodded to acknowledge Bai Lin's correctness and did not say anything further. He only hoped that the excavation team could speed up their pace, as Yun Meng's own time was very tight.

About fifteen days of the ninety-day period had already passed, and there was not a single useful piece of information.

Yun Meng was feeling very anxious...

After all, at this time, if any special event were to occur, the possibility of delays would be very, very high. Moreover, there wasn't even a complete map of the ancient tomb, which made Yun Meng extremely agitated.

"I'll give you one and a half more days to give me the complete picture of this ancient tomb. And the excavation team must break through this tunnel within a day, otherwise, you'll all go home and farm with me!"

Yun Meng said angrily. If this task could not be completed, Lord Right God Hall would surely demote or punish Yun Meng. Yun Meng had finally climbed to the position of great leader, not to be demoted. He just wanted to live out his later years peacefully, relying on the influence of the Thirteen District's background, and live a comfortable life thereafter.

"Leader, isn't the difficulty really too great!!!" said the temporary worker supervisor.

"I don't care what method you use, be it explosives or anything else, you must open this karst cave for me within a day. Don't make me say it a second time... Hmph..." With that, Yun Meng left without looking back.

Bai Lin, however, looked into the cave. The platform that appeared this time was not the previously mentioned Pavilion Facing the Sky or the Deep Water Pool, but a circular platform. In the center of the circular platform was a protruding spiral staircase leading downwards.

"Have you seen this?" Bai Lin asked Chen Fan.

Chen Fan peered inside. What appeared before Chen Fan's eyes was the place where Bai Zhannian and the withered old ghost had fought previously.

"Once you go down here, it's the illusionary realm, and then the main tomb chamber..." Chen Fan said as he saw it.

"Is there a way to find Zhannian here?" Chen Fan continued to ask Bai Lin.

"This is probably the middle layer of the ancient tomb. If possible, I can try once, but you really have to wait for the large instruments. Do you promise me?" Bai Lin looked at Chen Fan.

"Yes, I promise you."

Chen Fan knew that if it was as Bai Lin said, then this day's wait would be very timely, rather than him going down and searching blindly.

If that were the case, Chen Fan was willing to wait.

After receiving Chen Fan's affirmation,

Bai Lin organized the researchers to start scanning at the cave entrance with ultrasound.

As the staff's ropes were dropped one by one from above, Chen Fan followed the Thirteen District's researchers onto the platform below.

Everyone discovered the deep sword marks on the platform, and could not help but marvel. How could there be such powerful experts in the world?

Bai Lin approached Chen Fan and said.

"This wouldn't be your doing, would it?"

Chen Fan chuckled embarrassedly, tacitly acknowledging.

Bai Lin also quietly gave Chen Fan a thumbs-up.

"With such assistance, avenging my grandfather is within reach." This was Bai Lin's thought.

Without further ado.

The descending research team immediately entered work mode, and even Bai Lin was immersed in her work.

From the structure of the platform to the exploration of the tomb passage.

At this time, the previously appearing voice in the tomb was no longer causing trouble, and everyone was working with fiery enthusiasm.

Chen Fan felt a bit bored and, like other armed personnel, stood aside, helping to carry documents and collect samples.

Time ticked by, and unbeknownst to them, danger was also quietly approaching.

"Click..." A sound that bewildered everyone rang out.

This sound made Chen Fan tremble.

That's right, it was something that triggered a mechanism.

Chen Fan had originally thought that the mechanism on this platform was the withered old man confined here. He never expected that last time they were just lucky and didn't trigger the mechanism, passing through directly.

But this time, luck was not on Chen Fan's side.

As the mechanism sound stopped, the entire platform began to tilt.

"Ahhhhhh!" A researcher at the edge of the platform fell directly into the deep abyss.

"Everyone, don't move!" Bai Lin said.

The mechanism of this level was the movable platform and the sudden, unforeseen arrows.

Even if they came down today without the help of ropes, it would be difficult to escape.

After all, this tilting platform was a limitation on everyone's movement.

"Whoosh... Whoosh... Whoosh, whoosh..." Several slender crossbow bolts also shot out from the surrounding stone walls, embedding themselves in the platform floor.

"Not good, crossbow bolts." Chen Fan also saw it at this time.

Although they did not have the power and impact of the main tomb chamber's crossbow bolts, under the current situation where everyone dared not move casually, these small crossbow bolts were even harder to detect, and the number of shots at one time would certainly be more terrifying than in the main tomb chamber.

A total of eighteen slender crossbow bolts were embedded in the ground.

The personnel guarding the entrance above the platform immediately discovered the situation, and several ropes were quickly thrown down.

This was cooperation.

"Everyone lie flat and move! Hurry to the ropes and go up." Bai Lin, remembering the balance knowledge learned in the Thirteen District, called out for everyone to lie down.
