1848 Meteorite

The archaeological team members had come up one after another. They turned to see that Huo Yao and Min Yu were only halfway through, so they quickly helped to pull the chain taut.

At this moment, the underground palace suddenly shook violently causing rocks to fall from overhead. It was hard for them to stand up straight, let alone help anyone.

“Oh no. It’s going to collapse.”

Zhuo Yun and Yang Yi gritted their teeth and secured the chain as hard as they could.

Even when broken stones started falling on them, they ignored the debris and kept going.

Under the suspension bridge, Huo Yao could see the clear quiet lake moving due to rising cog mechanisms.

The chains were only slightly over ten centimeters away from reaching the mercury lake. At most, Huo Yao and Min Yu had one minute to get to the other side.

Huo Yao inhaled deeply and sped up.

If nothing went wrong, one minute was enough for them to escape.

However, it felt as though the G.o.ds were against them. When they were only three meters away from the opposite side, a huge rock suddenly came cras.h.i.+ng down on them.

Just as it was about to fall on Huo Yao, Min Yu reached his hand out and pushed her hard in the nick of the moment.

Huo Yao just managed to avoid the rock. She turned to see that it had hit Min Yu on the shoulder making him lose his balance. Her eyes constricted as she took a step back to reach her hands out to pull his arm without a second thought.

Min Yu steadied himself and said deeply, “Let’s go.”

They moved even more quickly.

Zhuo Yun and Yang Yi broke out in a cold sweat just by looking at the scene. However, neither of them made a sound and kept pulling the chain as hard as they could.

Time felt as though it was both moving quickly and taking forever for them to cross. Over ten seconds later, Huo Yao and Min Yu finally jumped onto the stone steps.

They turned around just in time to see that the floating palace connected by the suspension bridge, which had been around for an unknown time, eventually fall into the mercury lake below. The archaeological site that the team had yet to properly explore was forever buried below.

Huo Yao’s eyes turned dark briefly. She turned without lingering the slightest and everyone headed out of the underground palace.

Everything was about to collapse.

In a few minutes, everyone finally evacuated the underground palace. Before anyone was able to catch their breath, the surrounding ground started to sink with the underground palace as the epicenter.

The earth was sinking quickly, but the off-road cars were equally fast. Before long, they drove out of the danger zone.

Then, the cars went back to normal speed.

The archaeological team had just nearly died out there. They sat in the cars with fear still lingering in their hearts and felt completely sapped.

Chairman Sheng was always a composed man, but now, his face was a little pale.

“I thought we were going to study the floating underground palace structure. Now everything is gone.” A surveyor sighed disappointedly. “I wonder who triggered the mechanism.”

“Uh huh. We were lucky to get out intact,” said someone as he smiled sadly.

“It’s too bad. We were unable to confirm if the meteorite genuinely exists.” The surveyor wiped his face. After calming down, he recalled the chairman leaving that place for a while, so he looked at him. “Oh yes. Chairman, did you make any discoveries inside the underground palace earlier?”

Chairman Sheng leaned into the seat. His sleeve had been cut by something. He opened his eyes looking completely normal and replied mildly. “No, I didn’t.”
