Alex and the others continued to explore the depths of the catacomb. Along the way, they found many traps. As they gradually went deeper underground, the temperature dropped.
Unlike what was shown in the movie, the tomb of the First Emperor was extremely large in reality. It took nearly an hour to walk through the tomb, and there was no lack of people who slowed down the speed due to their caution along the way.
Finally, they reached the deepest part of the mausoleum, which was also the core of the First Emperor's mausoleum. He opened a bronze stone door in the depths of the catacomb. The flames were like ghost fire in the underworld. The moment the stone door was opened, the torches inside were lit up one by one. The raging flames in the torches brought light to the tomb that had been in darkness for two thousand years.
The moment the dark and green netherworld fire ignited, Alex, Professor Wilson, and the others gasped. There were thousands of terracotta warriors standing densely in the tomb. Under the illumination of the dark Nether Fire, these terracotta warriors looked as if they were alive. It made people have no choice but to calm down, afraid of waking up these Qin Country warriors who had slept for two thousand years.
These elite soldiers of the Qin army, who had been asleep for a long time, lined up in the battle formation they had fought in their previous lives. They were either holding spears, shields, or crossbows. The formation was filled with a murderous aura. Even though they were real clay figurines, they still made people feel the iron bones of the Qin people from a thousand years ago.
Alex and Wilson were only surprised for a moment, but they could not hide their joy. They stopped for a moment and entered the tomb together. Alex walked among the terracotta warriors. As soon as he entered, he was surprised to find that these clay warriors were more than half a head taller than him. Alex himself was 1.78 meters tall, and the average height of the British people was only about 1.75 meters. However, these terracotta warriors, which were made strictly according to the real person, were more than half a head taller than him. According to archaeology, each terracotta warrior was at least 1.9 meters tall. The result was very frightening. Even if it was not, it meant that the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty were all so tall and mighty. No wonder the six countries were beaten up by the Qin Dynasty without any resistance.
Alex was in a very good mood. In his ecstasy, he accidentally guessed a collapsed board and instantly activated the mechanism. With a whoosh, a few bronze wheels spun down. Alex broke out in a cold sweat and immediately fell back. The huge flywheels flew past the tip of Alex's nose and instantly cut the terracotta soldiers beside him in half before flying back into the stone wall. With a loud bang, he realized that the bronze flywheels were deeply embedded in the stone wall. The edge of the blade that protruded out of the stone wall shone coldly, making the archeological team break out in cold sweat. Alex got up and cheered everyone on.
"Guys, cheer up. This was just an accident. A beautiful future is still waving at us.”Before he could finish his sentence, an inhuman scream could be heard from not far away. Everyone looked to a corner and saw a crack spewing dark green smoke. The Chinese who stepped on the crack screamed non-stop as their bodies were rapidly corroded. Before they could even reach a group, they had turned into a pool of green pus. Not long after, another Chinese scholar accidentally stepped into a trap and was shot into a hornet's nest by the activated Qin crossbow before he could escape.
Xu Luo, who was sealed underground and unable to move, sensed this scene through his spiritual sense. He could not help but twitch his lips. These people were so brave to save me from the sea of misery. They were really good people!
At this point, only Alex and Professor Wilson were left on the archaeological expedition team. After mourning their companions for a while, the two of them fearlessly continued to move forward. However, one of them was doing it for his own dream, and the other was doing it for the benefits promised by the behind-the-scenes boss.
As they walked to the innermost part of the cave, they realized that they had reached the end of their journey. However, they still did not find Qin Shi Huang's coffin. They only found a huge stone compass in it.
Alex felt that something was wrong. There was no way a compass would be placed for no reason. The more Alex looked at it, the more he felt that something was wrong with the compass. He poured all the water in the kettle into the compass. When he saw the floating magnet fish, he was instantly enlightened. He quickly called Wilson over and turned the stone compass in the direction of the magnet fish. In an instant, the ground collapsed and he fell into a sacrificial pit.
Alex had a splitting headache. He struggled to get up and found a bronze chariot pulling a bronze coffin.
Alex was overjoyed. As he reported to Wei Erxun that he was safe, he teased Xu Luo, who was inside the coffin," You tyrant, you actually took your wife with you after you died."
Xu Luo, who was driving, looked down on him and disdained to argue with him. He only waited for the seal to be removed soon.
