Evolution from Carp to Divine Dragon - Chapter 247
Chapter 247: The Behemoth Statues
TL: Etude
“A head… there’s a head!” The man was startled and immediately shouted in alarm.
A head!?
The others, hearing his voice, were also frightened.
Flashlights simultaneously shone ahead, and they could clearly see a giant head’s shadow in the distance.
But it was a bit too far to make out clearly!
Zhang Tiansheng was the first to react. He pressed a silver metal object hanging around his neck that resembled a dice, and in an instant, the silver armor covered his entire body!
Next, Luo Zhendong quickly reacted as well, activating the Type 2 Battle Suit on his back, instantly donning the black armor!
Both reacted very quickly and, within a short time, had already rushed to the front area.
“Quick! Follow them!”
The others snapped out of their shock and immediately followed, rushing forward!
“What is this monster!?”
Zhang Tiansheng, rushing ahead at great speed, noticed that the surrounding space suddenly became much more spacious!
It seemed they had reached the end of the tunnel and entered a vast underground chamber!
In front of them was the massive head of a dinosaur-like creature!
But judging by its size, it must have been over ten meters long, and it wasn’t a fossil but a stone statue!
“Why are there so many Behemoth statues!?”
Zhang Tiansheng’s eyes scanned around and could clearly see many Behemoth statues nearby!
He walked closer, examining the statues carefully. They all looked lifelike, almost as if they were real creatures!
“They all seem to be stone statues…”
“Could these have been left by those extraterrestrial intelligent beings?”
Luo Zhendong’s eyes swept around, filled with awe.
So many Behemoth statues looked like masterpieces crafted with incredibly fine skill.
“So many Behemoth statues!?”
Meanwhile, the others, rushing in, were also stunned by the sight.
“Who created so many statues here…?”
One of the men instinctively reached out to touch a statue.
“Don’t touch it!”
But at that moment, Zhang Tiansheng sensed something and his expression became extremely serious!
The man, hearing his urgent voice, was startled and immediately stopped.
“These statues might be alive.”
Zhang Tiansheng’s voice trembled a bit.
In that instant, the Type 1 Battle Suit he wore, which had built-in special scanning equipment, caused his helmet’s visor to emit a faint red energy glow.
As these red beams illuminated the statue in front of him, Zhang Tiansheng saw the contents displayed on the transparent screen inside his helmet.
Life force fluctuations!
This statue had life force fluctuations!
Though very faint!
“Alive!?” Luo Zhendong was also taken aback.
If all these statues were alive, what did that imply!?
It implied that this place was full of Behemoths!
For Longyin City, it would be a disaster!
“Although we don’t know what they went through to turn into statues, the detected life force fluctuations suggest they might wake up.” Saying this, he continued moving forward.
He continued to use the capabilities of the Type 1 Battle Suit to scan the surrounding statues.
Now, he was a bit cautious, not scanning every statue, as if these statues truly could come back to life, it would be a big problem!
After last night’s battle, Longyin City’s combat power had suffered significant losses, and their injuries had yet to heal.
“Mr. Zhang, how is it?” At this moment, Luo Zhendong also followed Zhang Tiansheng.
Although his Type 2 Battle Suit had similar capabilities, due to the differences in their suits, it hadn’t detected any life force fluctuations.
“Some of the Behemoth statues have life force fluctuations.” Zhang Tiansheng took a deep breath, calming himself before speaking to the group.
“Mr. Zhang, does that mean they could wake up at any time? Become alive?” The others trembled slightly as they listened to him.
It was terrifying.
So many Behemoths, if they truly could come back to life, it would be a nightmare!
“In theory, it’s possible, but the life force fluctuations are very weak. It might be that they are already dead, with only some cells not completely dead yet, causing the fluctuations.” As Zhang Tiansheng spoke, he continued walking forward.
This space was very large, and under the flashlight’s illumination, the smooth stone walls around them revealed many inscriptions.
Each character was very large, as if written by a massive creature.
“Record everything here.” As he walked, Zhang Tiansheng instructed.
“Yes!” The group nodded.
They activated their recording cameras and used special card cameras to capture everything around them.
“This place doesn’t seem like the ancient ruins we know…” Luo Zhendong looked around, his eyes filled with disbelief.
In his impression, ancient ruins should be filled with high-tech machinery in a vast space.
But here, there were only unreadable inscriptions and many giant statues!
“This is…”
As Zhang Tiansheng continued to look ahead, he seemed to see something, his eyes widening in surprise.
He held his flashlight, quickly shining it forward.
However, that area was blocked by many Behemoth statues, making it hard to see clearly.
After running a short distance forward, he saw that the area ahead reached the end of this space!
And at the end… there was an even larger creature!
“A dragon!?”
Seeing this scene, Zhang Tiansheng was utterly stunned.
The massive creature in front of him, even just looking at it with the naked eye, clearly had a head that resembled a dragon’s!
And more terrifyingly, it didn’t have just one head!
“One, two, three… five heads!?”
Upon closer inspection, this creature actually had five heads!
Each head was lifelike and enormous.
Its half-buried body in the soil revealed only its long necks and five gigantic heads.
Gulp.
Seeing this, Zhang Tiansheng couldn’t help but swallow hard.
“A five-headed dragon?”
Just looking at such a creature was incredibly awe-inspiring.
“No, I can’t scan it.”
He instinctively wanted to use the Type 1 Battle Suit’s capabilities to scan the five-headed dragon statue, but as soon as this thought occurred, he immediately stopped!
After all, scanning would produce light shining on the statue. What if that woke it up?
The statues of the other Behemoths were one thing, but this beast’s statue was clearly on a different level!
“This is a major discovery.”
