Chapter 335 Ancient tombs are used for demolition
The domed building where the Prophet's Tomb is located is about ten meters high, and the bottom of the building has been soaked in the lake for a long time and is very slippery, making it impossible to climb to the top.
After careful observation, Laura discovered that she could use the special structure in the ancient tomb to change the surrounding environment, thereby creating a path for herself to reach the dome building.
This plan is very simple, and is similar to the fable "The Crow Drinks Water".
In her opinion, the entire ancient tomb was like an empty bottle placed deep in the sea.
The waterfall that keeps pouring down is like the sea that is constantly impacting the bottle of the ancient tomb. While the bottle is riddled with holes, it also allows part of the seawater to flow into the ancient tomb, forming a somewhat special indoor lake.
As time went by, the buildings riddled with holes could no longer prevent the influx of lake water. The Prophet's followers could only block the drainage outlets to prevent the lake water from continuously pouring into the ancient tomb, and even flooded the entire ancient tomb.
Then, what Laura has to do is very simple.
Once all the drainage outlets blocked by the buildings on both sides are pried open, a large amount of lake water will pour into the ancient tomb, turning the entire ancient tomb into a vast ocean.
By then, the water level in the ancient tomb will rise rapidly, and you can use the height of the lake to easily swim to the dome building higher up.
This idea was inspired by Laura from the series of traps in the corridor just now.
Now that she had made a plan, Laura quickly took action.
She has not forgotten that besides herself, there is also a group of people who are trying to find the Tomb of the Prophet...
There was only a "bang" sound, and like a professional diver, Laura jumped into the lake below with a standard 10-minute diving movement.
Immediately afterwards, she immediately swam to the right shore, came to a blocked drainage outlet, took out a mountaineering pick, and started to pry it up!
As the drainage outlets were pried open one after another, a large amount of lake water began to pour into the ancient tomb, and the water level began to rise rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
While Laura was transforming into a "little expert in tomb demolition," Holy Trinity's people also continued to use explosives to bomb the rock formations above the ancient tomb, trying to open a passage that could directly reach the interior of the ancient tomb.
The sound of "boom" explosions kept coming from above the ancient tomb, as if the next second, those rampant tomb robbers would fall from the sky.
In about five minutes, the "empty bottle" of the Prophet's Tomb was filled with lake water, and the water level also covered most of the domed building.
At this time, Laura, who couldn't wait any longer, immediately jumped into the lake and swam to the dome building in the center of the ancient tomb.
After swimming closer, Laura discovered that the wall structure of the dome building was actually a series of hollowed-out tombs, with human bones and skulls placed inside!
With just a glance, Laura ignored all of this, grabbed the protruding edge of the wall, and climbed to the top of the dome building.
When she climbed up the domed building, what she saw was a tomb coffin with exquisite carvings and a human stone lid.
The moment she saw the tomb coffin, Laura's expression suddenly relaxed. She stared at the tomb coffin with bright eyes and murmured to herself:
"Found you!"
When she came to the tomb coffin and carefully looked at the patterns and logos carved on the tomb coffin, Laura put her hand on the coffin lid and pushed hard!
As the coffin lid was pushed open, revealing the empty interior of the tomb coffin, Laura's joy suddenly turned into disbelief:
"Empty?! It's empty?!!"
"No, that's not right. What did I overlook?"
Just as Laura was frowning and wondering what went wrong in her research, a voice suddenly came from above the ancient tomb:
"Anything found?"
"Hey, it should be down there!"
Looking up, Laura found several armed soldiers dropping three ropes from the ceiling of the ancient tomb, and it seemed that they were about to rappel down.
Seeing that the enemy was already in front of her, Laura, who had no time to escape, quickly got into the empty coffin and closed the lid of the coffin.
As soon as these actions were completed, another wave of uninvited guests landed on the platform connected to the dome building with a "whoosh" sound.
I saw four or five armed soldiers wrapped up in their bodies, surrounded by a middle-aged man wearing a black jacket with a stand-up collar, walking down the stairs to the prophet's tomb.
"Set explosives!"
At the middle-aged man's order, the armed soldiers who were still on the ceiling of the ancient tomb placed several ticking C4 explosive packets on several support pillars supporting the entire ancient tomb.
He casually took the detonator handed over by his subordinates and placed it on his waist. The gray-haired middle-aged man stared closely at the tomb coffin in front of him and murmured:
"The Tomb of the Prophet...Finally Found."
Reaching out and stroking the carvings on the coffin lid, the man immediately turned around and said to the two men beside him:
"Open it!"
"Be careful, this thing may be dangerous..."
The two men holding aks looked at each other, then stepped forward, put their hands on the coffin lid, and pushed hard!
The moment the coffin lid was pushed open, Laura, who had been prepared for a long time, suddenly stood up from inside, holding an HK45 pistol tightly in both hands, and pointed it at the enemy in front of her.
This sudden act of "pretending to be a corpse" frightened the two Holy Trinity soldiers. One of them shivered, and subconsciously raised his AK, aiming at the beautiful woman in a vest who jumped out of the tomb coffin.
Although she had already made some guesses, Laura still asked her doubts:
"Who the hell are you?!"
Seeing Laura who was the first to arrive, a flash of surprise flashed in the gray-haired man's eyes. Then he took half a step forward, stretched out his hand to lower the muzzles of his men on both sides, and said meaningfully:
"You are a smart girl, I think you already knew..."
"Holy Trinity!"
As he spoke, the gray-haired man stepped forward slowly, completely unafraid of the gun in Laura's hand, and leaned in front of her, speaking in a deep voice word by word:
“Where are the cultural relics?!”
"I don't know what the hell you're talking about..."
Before Laura could finish speaking, the gray-haired man who was very close to him suddenly became solemn and shouted:
"Stop playing tricks on me! You are the one who led us here!"
Faced with such an aggressive attitude, Laura couldn't help but lower her gaze slightly and glanced past the detonator on the opponent's waist.
A bold idea formed in my mind instantly...
After moving the pistol that was pointed at the gray-haired man's chest into the air to show that she meant no harm, Laura continued:
"Listen, when I got here, it was empty. There were no remains, and I didn't see any cultural relics around..."
Hearing this, the gray-haired man stared at Laura closely for a few seconds, then looked down at the empty coffin, turned around involuntarily, and walked around thinking.
After thinking for a while, the gray-haired man seemed to have figured out something, his expression turned cold, and he suddenly pulled out a dagger from his waist.
The Holy Trinity men on both sides also cooperated very cooperatively and raised their AKs and pointed them at Laura.
Seeing this, Laura's eyes couldn't help but freeze, and she immediately raised her left hand and raised it to the other party.
When the gray-haired man saw the detonator that ran into Laura's hand at some point, he was stunned for a moment. He couldn't help but look down at his empty waist, and his heart suddenly thumped!
The gray-haired man finally realized the seriousness of the situation. His expression suddenly changed. As he turned around and ran away, he did not forget to remind him loudly:
"Get down quickly!!!"
