I traverse America, using holy light to quell American terror!

Professor Mel did not speak upon hearing this, but simply nodded slightly.

Seeing Professor Mel nod, Fitz continued to ask:

"What warning?"

"I don't know either."

Professor Mel shrugged and said to the people behind him:

"I think it's best if we don't move; that soldier will definitely come looking for us."

Fitz rolled his eyes upon hearing this.

He found it hard to understand why these scholars remained so enthusiastic about academic research during times of crisis.

Upon hearing Professor Mel's suggestion, his daughter Nora immediately objected:

"This won't do, Michael won't last long!"

As she spoke, Nora glanced at Michael, whose face was pale from blood loss.

He said in a deep voice, "Dad, we need to find another way out."

Professor Mel knew how Nora felt, but there was nothing he could do about it.

Helpless, I asked:

"Okay, Nora, do you have any good ideas?"

Before Nora could speak, Suni suddenly stood up.

At this moment, Suni became extremely agitated.

She pointed to the stone wall behind Professor Mel and shouted:

"If this stone wall is a door, then there must be a way out behind the door!"

"Professor! We need to open it!"

Professor Mel's heart tightened upon hearing this; he was unwilling to do so.

The warning-like relief on the door made him instinctively wary.

"Sunni, I don't think this is a good idea."

That door has been here for over a thousand years, and it's even been propped up with wood.

Believe me, no one would do that for no reason.

That's clearly because they don't want something to come out!

"My God!"

Suni covered his stinging face and said excitedly:

"Stop acting like an expert, just act like a normal person, okay?"

We're trapped now and need to escape!

Nora, standing behind Suni, chimed in, echoing:

"She's right, Dad. We need to find a way out now."

"Go get help! Mike is dying!"

Professor Mel looked at his anxious daughter.

For a time, they were caught in a dilemma.

Evelyn and Jonathan stood together.

Silently watching the father and daughter who disagreed, I didn't know who to side with.

She could only raise the satellite phone in her hand again.

They tried to find a location with a signal to contact Li Yuan.

Nora, standing next to Michael, saw that her father remained silent.

He could only say, in a fit of pique:

"Alright then, I'll try the vertical shaft again!"

"No! Nora, don't go!"

Professor Mel quickly stopped his daughter's risky behavior.

Then, pointing at Suni's face, he said:

"Look at her face, we have no idea what danger lies up there!"

Seeing this, Fitz also stepped forward and put pressure on Professor Mel:

"We can't just sit here doing nothing, we have to do something!"

Of course, at least we know that there's something up there to grab people's faces.

Then, Fitz said again with disdain:

"And it stinks here."

"Then put on that damn gas mask!"

Professor Mel, glaring at Fitz who was still babbling on and on, roared angrily.

However, Fitz continued without fear:

"Listen, buddy, I'm serious!"

Whatever was up there, we didn't die after falling.

Then they can come down too.

If we remain trapped here,

So what's the difference between this and the food in those creatures' bowls?

They could come down and kill us at any time!

Although Fitz's words were somewhat harsh,

Professor Mel did not refute this, because he believed that Fitz was right.

It's really not suitable for us to stay here forever.

He was silent for a moment, then sighed and said softly:

"Alright, let's see what's behind the stone slab."

Under Professor Mel's guidance, everyone worked together to move the log.

A square passage, about one meter high and one and a half meters wide, was revealed.

Professor Mel shone his flashlight into the corridor.

He said somewhat uncertainly:

I'm not sure if it's safe inside.

We all know there are some toxins in the air here.

Fitz shook his head and quickly said:

"No, we have to try, no matter what."

There's nowhere with worse air quality than here.

After everyone had discussed and agreed on the plan, and were ready to depart,

Nora, looking dejected, took a searchlight and placed it next to her boyfriend.

Mai shook his head weakly and said:

"Nora, you keep it. You need it more."

"No, Michael."

Nora leaned closer to Michael and said sadly:

"I don't want you to be in such a dark place, and this light will also help us find you again."

As she spoke, Nora leaned down and kissed Michael.

Then, the axe that they had previously obtained in the tomb was left to him.

"You won't need it, but it's just in case."

Nora said earnestly:

"Wait for me to come back, Michael."

A weak Michael forced a smile and nodded to Nora.

After they hugged, Nora stood up and looked at Michael.

They left the stone chamber with reluctance.

In the pitch-black corridor, Professor Mel and his group walked forward in silence.

However, in the darkness, there seemed to be some figures rushing by at high speed.

This forced everyone to keep their nerves constantly on edge.

Evelyn never gave up and continued to contact Li Yuan using a satellite phone.

She kept holding up the phone, checking the signal.

Fitz, observing Evelyn's behavior, muttered dejectedly:

"Don't bother, there's no way a signal can get in from here."

However, Evelyn didn't care about Fitz's words.

He continued to do as he pleased, holding up his phone and searching for a signal.

Just as the group reached a corner of a passageway,

Professor Mel, who was walking at the very front,

I noticed the scratches on the wall by chance and suddenly stopped in my tracks.

He gently touched the marks left by his claws on the wall.

I was slightly surprised.

Such large claw marks must have been left by a very large wild animal.

But just then, Evelyn behind her suddenly let out a gasp.

She said excitedly:

"Oh my god, there's a signal here!"

Seeing the fluctuating signal, Evelyn quickly dialed the number.

She called Li Yuan, whom she trusted most.

Hearing Evelyn's words, the others also gathered around.

Suni asked in confusion:

"Evelyn, who did you call? We should have called the police!"

Fitz then loudly proposed:

"I think we should call the archaeological association! They'll help us contact rescue efforts!"

An emotional Jonathan shouted from the side:

"Quiet down! Let Evelyn make the call, this is crucial!"

Jonathan thought to himself:

What good are the police and archaeological associations?!

With Li Yuan here, any problem can be solved!
