Chapter 3: steeple

Appearing in front of the gunsmith was the source of the rancid, fish. They lay on the mud ground in twos and threes, exuding the smell that corpses should have. Of course, it wouldn't be possible for a fish to stand, let alone a dead fish.
The gunsmith observed it. This small highland is less than a hundred square meters, which is obviously higher than the surrounding terrain. He is very strange, why do fish die in such places, and the number is quite large. These tropical fish have different species. It may add up to more than thirty or forty pieces.
At first he thought it was done by the local indigenous people, but after thinking about it, he did n’t feel like it. Why would humans try to catch the fish without eating or raising it, but throw it on the high ground to make it rot and stink? Then he wondered whether some kind of animal was dry, but soon found out that this is even more impossible. Animals do n’t use fishing nets and fish hooks. They will more or less leave scars on the fish, but in front of these fish, It looks like ...
A thought flashed in the gunsmith's mind, and he immediately walked to a nearby tree and looked closer at the trunk. Sure enough, there were water marks and it had not dried out. The lower part of the tree should have been soaked in In the water, that is to say, not long ago, this place was still a river or a pond, and the mud at the feet also illustrates this.
Then, the reason these fish will die in front of them is that the water level here dropped several meters instantaneously a few hours ago, and they did not even have time to disperse. But here is obviously a high ground. If the water level has reached such a high place, shouldn't the surrounding areas be flooded?
The rifleman went downhill and checked the surrounding trees again. The exposed part of the trunk was the same color, and the only root was the soak. In this way, there is only one explanation for this strange phenomenon in front of the eyes, not that the water level has changed, but that piece of ground, which suddenly bulges on its own.
Earthquake? Didn't feel it, did a huge ancient beast turn over underneath? Just kidding?
The musketeer was very curious. The inventor had had this problem since he was a child. Once he discovered something strange, he didn't go to find out. It was uncomfortable.
It is noon at this time, and it is reasonable to say that it is a break for dinner, but the gunsmith will not have appetite to eat if he does not solve this mystery. So he thought of a very straightforward way to dig.
He took something out of his backpack and made simple gloves for himself with two pieces of cloth. Anyway, he did n’t need to take five fingers apart. He simply fixed the two cloth covers with a seat belt, just to prevent it. The mud was embedded in the nails and then dried with bare hands.
The mud was soaked in the bottom of the water. It didn't take much effort to plan. The gunsmith's movement was like a hole in a dog. It was dug very quickly, and soon the whole man entered the pit.
After working for about an hour like this, he has been more than ten meters into the ground. In order to prevent the mud that was slipped down when he was working underneath, the gunsmith did not dare to dig straight up and down. Keep the width up and down, and every time you dig down one or two meters, you have to come back and expand the opening, so the amount of labor goes up, but he is not a normal human anyway, and it is not tiring to do this work.
Just when the gunsmith began to feel a bit stupid in this wild wilderness for a reasonless reasoning, he ran into a very hard object with his paw down, and his fingers were sore and painful.
石头 "Stone? Please don't be a stone." The gunsmith said to himself, he separated the last layer of dirt and saw what he wanted to see most.
确实 That's really not stone, but metal.
"Hahahahaha!" The gunsmith laughed wildly. For a moment, he felt that he had dug into the alien spaceship.
After digging up more dirt, the gunsmith gradually rejected this speculation because he had a more incredible idea-there was a metal-built pyramid under this swamp.
高 This high ground, or this pond, is just above the top of the tower. For some reason, the building below rises, causing the ground to swell. If it is not a swamp above, the ground may not be a swell but crack.
The gunsmith quickly stopped digging. It was unpredictable what kind of behemoth was under this spire. Maybe there was a city the size of it. The vertical height of the spire to the ground would be high enough. If he walked along the outside Dig down, it may not reach the end for a few kilometers.
He stepped on the metal and jumped back to the ground. Set fire to roast two nutria caught yesterday, while eating, wondering what to do next.
The more reliable method is to refill the pit, and later have the opportunity to bring a team of engineering to make a comeback; but the gunsmith has always been a less reliable person, he can't wait to know what is underneath, what is this thing Why is it buried under the sun? Why did it just swell recently? The magnetic field here is definitely not related to this stuff, maybe there is a lost ancient civilization or something in it ...
The deeper I thought, the more the curiosity of the gunsmith flared. Since I came here today, it was an opportunity. If I missed an opportunity, it would be difficult to say if I could find this tower apex in the future. UU reading books www.uukanshu.com This compass is useless, and the landform is extremely complicated and changeable. It can be said that there is no such shop in this village.
He filled his stomach, and the original escape plan was completely thrown out of the clouds. Now it is not a time to consider a meal and a stay. In the jungle that cannot be touched by human civilization, a huge metal was buried underground. Gunsmith How can you just sit and ignore.
检查 He checked a pouch, carried it on his back, and took out the bone gun, facing the metal spire under the pit, and decisively pulled the trigger.
The sound of bone guns is slightly different from the sound of ordinary pistols, and its sound is more stuffy. The bullets shot by bone guns are similar to a highly condensed energy block. When they contact the target they hit, they will be based on the structure and intensity of the target. Make your energy change, so the harder you shoot with a bone gun, the more power and energy you generate. For example, the power of hitting a person's body is similar to that of ordinary bullets, while the power of hitting steel will be upgraded to the level of armor-piercing bullets. If it hits a diamond, the overflowing energy may cause an explosion.
Of course, the surface or medium that can not be resisted by ordinary bullets will not trigger this kind of energy transition, such as water, air, and chemical fibers on the surface of bulletproof clothing. This is the exclusive weapon of the gunsmith, and the Empire has not acquired this technology.
The musketeer thought that it would not be too difficult to shoot through this metal. According to his estimation, such a large piece cannot be harder than a diamond. His estimation was correct, the hardness of the spire was not as good as that of a diamond, but from the shooting results, it was not much worse.
That small bullet hit a metal tower more than ten meters underground, and the power generated was like a C4 explosion. The air wave directly lifted the gunsmith, and he was not mentally prepared. In the end, it was like a monkey. He hung on a tree in the distance.
