Chapter 571 Dungeon Core

After hearing what Su Peng said, Ouyang Qing and others naturally had nothing to do. Although the other party had a large number of guards, Su Peng had an advantage, that is, Commander Gan Luo was on Su Peng's side.

Commander Gan Luo is the instructor of the Guards of Kucha. Most of the Guards of Kucha have learned sword skills from him and have a high prestige. As long as Commander Gan Luo is there, even if the other party leads more guards than Su Peng and others, they will not directly conflict with Su Peng and others.

In fact, the real enemy of Su Peng and others is just some of the other side’s masters.

"From the current situation, there are no particularly hard-hitting ideas among the people from the True God Cult.

Su Peng thought to himself that those people did not seem to have particularly powerful masters, otherwise they would not have to hire foreign masters like Ouyang Qing to enter the desert last time.

Since that's the case, if it's only at this level, even if the other party has more than ten people, Su Peng will have confidence to capture or wipe out the other party with his current subordinates.

So, Su Peng was relieved to let his people walk along the road that President Yang Xi walked to see if there was any cheaper to pick up.

The man in white and the more than 40 guards led by the True God Sect were included in the editor, and was received by Su Peng.

Su Peng was worried that there were fewer people here, and that it was difficult to deal with any dangers encountered in the underground city. After joining these more than 40 people, Su Peng's concerns were greatly alleviated.

The guards knew each other and had no problem in commanding. In addition, they all brought enough water and food. Su Peng didn't need to worry about these things, just the extra staff to help.

Su Peng was very happy to get some replenishment, so he let these guards act as a vanguard force and take Su Peng and others to the place they once walked.

...

Su Peng and others advanced for a while in this underground oasis, and then saw a dirt slope ahead, which was another tunnel.

But those guards who were originally brought by the True God Sect and the men in white said that after passing through the tunnel, they were still the same town, and that town was similar to the towns that Su Peng and others had seen, except that there were fewer luminous stones and were dimmer.

After hearing this, Su Peng confirmed some information in his heart. Whether it was the Wei Guang City I just passed by or the towns mentioned by the guards brought by the True God Cult, they were not the core of this underground city.

These small towns should be all outer settlements, and the real city core should continue to focus on the central government.

Su Peng deduced a possible terrain structure here in his mind. After deducing the direction in Su Peng's memory, Su Peng discovered that the structure of this underground city was a bit like the movie "Resident Evil" he had watched. The underground research institute organized by the umbrella was an underground fortress called the honeycomb.

That is, at the top, there is a hexagonal or octagonal figure. There are six to eight town gathering points, and the underground oasis in front of you, forming an octagonal or hexagonal figure on a plane, and then focusing towards the center. There should be a larger city in the center, but I don’t know if it will be a three-dimensional city like in the movie, continuing to extend downward.

As for the oasis I passed by just now, Su Peng also had speculations. It should be a plantation. Judging by Su Peng's botanical knowledge, those fungi may be edible fungi.

If this is the case, then this underground city can basically be self-sufficient, with ventilation channels and no problem with air. Then there is a plant plantation. Looking at the people living in underground cities, it seems that they can still eat the meat of a special monster. If nothing unexpected happens, that special animal may exist deeper underground.

Now, the only thing missing is...the water source.

If the water source can be found, the lifeblood of this underground city can be found, and the overall structure is about to emerge.

The reason why Su Peng estimated that the city here was three-dimensional is because considering that he should be four or five hundred meters underground now, the height of the water source must be lower than that of the city itself, so the water source should be deeper.

Based on this consideration, Su Peng led the team forward to find clues, and soon found the town the guards mentioned.

That town is about the same size as the town Su Peng encountered before, but the light dimmed a lot, and there are also several tunnels in several directions of the town.

One of them is the tunnel in the direction where Su Peng came, which is the location of the underground oasis. The other opposite is the tunnel in which Yang Xi and the others came in, and the other two tunnels lead to the other two places.

Su Peng calculated the direction and angle of his walking in his mind, and judged that one of the tunnels should be heading towards the core of this underground ancient city.

And the guards said that this tunnel was exactly where Yang Xi and others entered.

Since that was the case, Su Peng and others walked into the tunnel without hesitation.

Su Peng and others walked into the tunnel. After walking for a while, Ouyang Qing suddenly stopped, grabbed Su Peng and said, "Brother Su, have you heard any sound in front of you?"

"Um?"

After hearing this, Su Peng stopped. He did not keep using his internal strength to his ears all the time, but Ouyang Qing kept in this state.

Su Peng was using his skills in his ears, and sure enough, a slight sound came over.

After listening quietly for a while, Su Peng frowned slightly and said, "It sounds like the sound of some mechanism running? There are also some footsteps, but they just sound, unlike the sound of human footsteps. The amplitude, distance and time of each step are too similar."

"Hmm? Is that?"

Ouyang Qing was a little stunned when he heard this. His internal strength was his weakness. His swordsmanship came from the inheritance of strangers in the martial arts world. Fortunately, Ouyang Qing visited famous sects everywhere when he was young, but because of his poor background, he encountered difficulties everywhere. On the one hand, he became extreme in character and hostile to famous sects, but on the other hand, his internal skills were not very good.

At this time, the gap in internal strength was revealed. He just kept using his power to his ears and heard some abnormal noises, but he didn't hear it as clearly as Su Peng.

"There must be some mechanism ahead of me. I sounded like hundreds of moving things, but they didn't look like humans, animals or dark green zombies I encountered before. I don't know what it was, but in addition, there are even larger mechanisms to start."

Su Peng said to Ouyang Qing.

Ouyang Qing nodded and said, "Are we going forward?"
