Chapter 195: The Origin of Black Hair
The kerosene lamp hanging at Han Dong's waist gradually illuminated the bottom of the well.
The bottom of the well was facing a clear underground water pool, and through the water layer, a large number of black hairs could be seen growing on the bottom, and some broken hair was also floating in the water.
There is also an open space down here where you can land, and you can reach it by swinging on the rope.
With a G-1 virus body, there is no problem completing such a move, you only need to hold onto the spider silk with your right arm and shake it with your waist and abdomen to complete the retraction.
Ta-da!
A steady landing.
Mia's nimble body followed the landing, and by the light of the fire, she looked down into the cave and sighed.
Mia exclaimed, "Wow! It's huge down there!"
"Language (note the wording)."
"Hehe, so you can joke around too, you were mean to someone on the way to the car before."
At this point, Mia suddenly remembered something and touched a piece of detector with a graduated scale from her waist.
"This was given to me by Miss Wendy, she says that it can intuitively detect the concentration of pollution, However, I don't know what the exact value means, so I'll report the detected value to them later."
The detector was clearly marked on a scale from 1 to 100.
Starting from the numerical value of 5, the background color began to darken.
After the value reaches 30, the background turns all black.
The current value of the cavern at the bottom of the well was 3.7, which seemed to fall within the safe range.
Mia stared at this eye that was open on Han Dong's forehead, "The things underground must have been scared away by your eye, should I call them down?"
"Wait a minute, there might be traps."
Han Dong needed to eliminate all dangers, after all, exploring the bottom of the well directly was suggested by him.
Walk up a circle along the open space of the cavern at the bottom of the well.
It was confirmed that the cavern under the well was a circular structure.
In the middle was a circular underground pool, surrounded by a walk-able ring of shallows, after a brief inspection circle, for the time being, there were no hidden stone walls and secret compartments that led to the [Underground Area].
"Mia, wait for me here."
"Huh? Where are you going?"
"Underwater."
There wasn't much hesitation.
Han Dong squeezed the detector with one hand and leapt into the underground water pool.
The "Raven Costume" adapts to change.
The original gown shape instantly changed into a black bodysuit suitable for swimming.
The mask also provides a small amount of oxygen, allowing Han Dong to remain underwater for about 10 minutes.
Due to the opening of the "Little Magic Eye".
The hair floating in the water scattered on its own, not daring to lean towards Han Dong.
"As expected, my suspicions were right."
Finally, it was at the bottom of the underground pool that a hidden passageway was found, connecting to another underground area.
Judging from the density of black hair growth, the direction of fluttering, and the pollution index that was rising in a straight line.
This secret passage at the bottom of the pool should lead to the nest of the 'Black Hair Evil Filth'.
"The pollution index at the entrance of the cave reached 9.7, and it must be even higher inside.
As Han Dong gazed at the pool bottom passage filled with black hair, a strange red balloon slowly floated out from within.
Pop!
The balloon exploded midway, and Han Dong also shook his head violently, giving up on the idea of exploring alone.
-------------------
The Wellhead.
Han Dong and Mia returned to the stone wellhead.
"Prepare a diving suit that can cover the entire body, we still have to go further into the waters below.
The indices on the probe show a contamination index of 9.7 at the underwater hole, and the internal estimates are even higher.
I advised Wendy to stay at the mouth of the well with another person who was less resistant, or less suited to moving around underwater, to ensure that the opening was not sealed off by external forces.
Also, keep a steady grip on the spider silk that is wrapped around us and make sure we can always leave the stone well through it."
Captain Abel suggested, "Daou, why don't you stay? You're not fit to go in the water, while retaining some fitness, you'll be needed head-on when you encounter something big later."
"Good!"
"Can you enchant the equipment, Miss Wendy? Increase pollution resistance."
"I can! Everyone, give me all the gear you're wearing for diving, I need half an hour."
----------------------------
Half an hour passed.
The members of the squad's bodies are tied with a tough spider silk spat out by Mia and grasped by Wendy.
The magician, Dempsey, wrapped his body in a special magical shield that kept out the water layer as well as the contamination.
The moment Abel enters the water, a protective shell-like structure grows between his knees, back, elbows, and the backs of his hands, resembling a tortoise shell.
The white Qi surrounding his body will sometimes transform into the image of a turtle.
"Spirit Turtle Guardian" - Defense is increased, each resistance is increased, and the "Joint Block" skill can be used.
As for Mia, she tucked away the witch's jacket and transformed it into a kind of swimsuit that would accentuate her figure.
Even Abel was stunned as he stared at the dense mass of black hair in the underwater tunnel and stopped swimming.
It's not easy to resist contact contamination if you get tangled in black hair.
The leader, Han Dong, however, was unafraid and continued swimming into the underwater passage.
"This is, how did you do it?"
As Han Dong swam in, the black hair in the tunnel had a feeling of 'retreating on its own', withdrawing through the wall, as if it was afraid of the young man.
Shocked, Abel also swam to keep up.
The length of the underwater passage was about twenty meters.
Due to Han Dong's presence, the black hair here did not dare to make a scene at all.
After smoothly passing through the underwater passage, they arrived at a similar pool, only the underwater scene here stunned the members of the squad.
"What are all these corpses? Doesn't the Stuart Estate have a larger cemetery in the open area separating the hill from the town?
Why are there so many bodies in the underground area?
The basement of our chosen residence as well? Is it hard to believe that this manor was already in trouble before the 'Dark Age' came?"
Han Dong carefully observed the corpse under the water.
Perhaps due to the special nature of the water, the corpse was not completely decomposed.
In particular, the head was well preserved, the pores on the top of the head were enlarged and there seemed to be small black dots inside, similar to sesame seeds, the "anomaly" was discovered by Han Dong.
"This! These are, cultivation mediums!?" Han Dong had finally found the source of the well of black hair's origin.
Someone was growing black hair.
These corpses that were sinking under the water were excellent black hair cultivation medium.
Furthermore, it was different from the previous cave at the bottom of the well.
This one waterhole appeared very 'clean', and other than the large number of corpses at the bottom, there was no black hair floating in the water layer.
With Han Dong's instructions, the entire crew surfaced.
As they had also spent some time at the bottom of the water, except for Han Dong, the other three had some shallow contamination lines near their eyes.
Captain Abel was agitated, "This is! Nicholas you really got me; the estate really does have a perfect underground system."
Above the waterhole.
No longer a cavernous structure at the bottom of a well, but an artificially constructed underground place.
Apart from the regular stone walls.
Torches, decorations, and even some slightly noble paintings hung on the walls.
The water that Han Dong and the others were in was a larger house pond, a pond used to grow hair.
In addition, there was a 'master' of the place standing in the doorway.
A white candle in the palm of his hand, black hair covering his face and hanging straight down to the ground.
A strong sense of danger swept through the squad.
However, this black-haired master seemed to have no intention of attacking, and immediately turned around as it saw the four people surfacing.
Rustling. (The sound of black hair rubbing against the stone floor)
Moving with the aid of black hair squirming, it seemed to be trying to lure Han Dong's group towards a certain area.
Moving extremely fast, it didn't give Han Dong's group a chance to attack.
