Zhou Lin said with a light laugh, then glanced at the people around him, signaling them to look at the opposite wall.
The crowd looked at the wall in front of them. Professor Lin then reached out and scraped away the ice and snow on it, and quickly shone his flashlight to take a look.
Inside the wall, they saw a layer of ice, and within this ice layer, there was an infant, lying there quietly with its eyes closed, looking as if it were asleep.
Of course, apart from the frost they had seen on its body earlier, the child looked quite cute.
But…
This thing…
"How can there be a child here?"
Professor Lin exclaimed, looking at the thing on the wall.
Since the corridor was not very wide, the sound was heard by the mercenaries and the archaeological team.
Upon hearing this, everyone rushed to clear away the snow from the wall, and they saw children appearing inside, all clustered together, in various poses.
The onlookers were shocked. They had indeed heard some children's voices before, but they never expected there to be actual children!
"There are really children in here? I heard voices before, but I didn't expect…"
Captain Lin also heard it, but he thought it was his imagination. He never expected it to be real, and how could these children be inside the stone wall?
Not only Captain Lin, but the entire archaeological team was secretly shocked, gasping in disbelief, and a sense of panic began to set in.
In the live stream.
"Holy crap, there are children inside these stone walls, sealed in ice?"
"No, where did these children come from? They all look to be the same age. And why bring all these children here? What's going on?"
"Is there some unspeakable secret?"
"There must be some strange situation happening. Perhaps it's like this, everything here is eerie. Can anyone explain?"
"I'm so worried. I wonder what else will happen later?"
"Could it be that they can't get out because of this reason?"
…
In the dean's conference room.
Everyone in the conference room was shocked by the situation on the surrounding walls.
"Oh my god, these children look only a few months old! This is too brutal!"
Professor Hu looked at the children, feeling a pang of sympathy.
"These are six-month-old children. Judging by their skin and the signs of freezing, they were likely frozen to death alive."
Professor Wen found it extremely cruel as he examined the condition of the children.
"But what is the purpose of doing this?"
The dean looked at the infants, a bad premonition rising in his heart.
"We don't know."
Professors Wen and Hu shook their heads.
Inside the tomb.
"Professor Zhou Lin… this is…"
Elder Tang's cloudy eyes cleared. The sounds he had heard earlier must have been from these children.
"This is…"
Before Zhou Lin could finish speaking, the surrounding walls began to emit strange sounds, as if trying to break through the ice.
Everyone looked at the sound and saw that the children had opened their eyes at some point. Their eyes were dark, and red blood was dripping down.
Their previously snow-white skin had now become filthy, covered in black slime and unknown substances.
"This…"
"Ah…"
The archaeological team members cried out in shock at the scene before them.
The children were extending their hands, trying to place them on the ice surface of the wall.
Cracks had already begun to appear on the ice.
Seeing this, everyone quickly stood up and instinctively retreated towards the stone wall behind them.
But strange sounds also began to emanate from the stone wall behind them. To the ears of the archaeological team, these sounds were like ghostly whispers.
"Ah…"
"Professor, I'm scared."
All the archaeological team members quickly huddled closer to their professors, panicking.
For a moment, Zhou Lin, Elder Tang, and the other professors were surrounded by team members, who were desperately trying to control their movements.
The mercenaries also felt fear, but due to their profession, they immediately held their weapons in front of them, ready to fight at any moment.
In the live stream.
"Damn, I take back what I said earlier. These are not cute at all. They are terrifying. This is horror, not cuteness."
"Does the creator of this tomb really like digging out people's eyeballs? These children were originally very cute, but now I understand. These children all died tragically, and were abused."
"Holy crap, I'm holding my baby right now. I almost threw my son away. This is too cruel. As a father, I cannot tolerate this."
"Don't talk about that now. These children are about to come out. What should we do?"
"The boss is here, don't be afraid, don't be afraid."
…
Inside the tomb.
*Crack!*
The ice instantly shattered, and the children erupted like a spring, spraying out.
They were rushing towards Zhou Lin and the others.
"Wuwuwu…"
The children looked at Zhou Lin and the others, showing no intention of being held.
They started crying incessantly.
Their cries were making everyone feel agitated.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Lin looked at the pale faces of the professors, archaeological team members, and mercenaries.
They were also showing signs of impatience.
"All of you, shut up."
Zhou Lin roared, and the surrounding children instantly fell silent, their dark eyes staring at Zhou Lin, with red tears hanging from their eyes.
They looked bewildered.
Elder Tang and Professor Lin looked at Zhou Lin with shock upon seeing his reaction.
This…
It was resolved with just one shout?
Captain Lin, Elder Tang, and the others, seeing this, gave Zhou Lin a thumbs-up.
No doubt, he was amazing.
"You all get back immediately."
Zhou Lin shouted at them.
"Hug…"
One of the children looked at Zhou Lin and walked towards him step by step, but he was still trembling.
He was very afraid of Zhou Lin.
"Don't come any closer, or I won't be polite."
Zhou Lin looked at the unknown sticky substance on them, which was disgusting to anyone who saw it. If they came near him now, he would be very disgusted.
"Hug…"
The infant looked at Zhou Lin, its muddy hands reaching out and grabbing at the air.
"Professor Zhou Lin… why is he so persistent?"
