Chapter 419 - Chapter 419: Chapter 419: The Green Slate (2/2)
It didn’t resemble a location that would hold treasures, and the extent of the destruction was curious.
The ruins Chen Yu and his team had encountered before were a hundred times better than this place.
Luo Sanpao scratched his head.
“This is the famous Mutuo ancient city? Why does it look like this?”
Chen Yu didn’t know what to say and casually took a sandboard from nearby and slid down.
After entering the ruins, he immediately spread out all the leather scrolls they had obtained on the ground.
The maps were extremely detailed, from macro to micro, and by comparing them, the entrance to the underground palace was easily noticeable.
But when Chen Yu pinpointed the entrance, he encountered a problem.
In front of him stood a towering earthen wall pillar, which did not seem like an entrance at all.
“What’s the situation?” Snow hurried over in a rush.
This time, he represented the honor of the entire Lakato family, where no mistakes could be afforded.
Moreover, promising Chen Yu not to pursue William’s family had already broken some of the Lakato family’s principles.
If they left here empty-handed, he really didn’t know how he would explain it to his people.
Chen Yu frowned slightly and then raised his hand, pointing towards the pillar in front of him.
“The entrance to the ancient city is right there, but this place is too thick. Without a powerful enough explosive device, I’m afraid it won’t be possible to blow it open.”
Snow stood up and waved to several of his men behind him.
“Bring all the explosive devices from the car.”
The strong men immediately went into action, carrying a huge pile of gunpowder towards them, and without waiting for Snow’s order, they buried these items below the earthen wall and stone pillars.
Chen Yu didn’t say anything more and immediately got up and retreated dozens of meters, hiding behind an earthen wall.
Following a thunderous explosion, that section of the earthen wall and stone pillars were swiftly reduced to rubble.
But as expected, the entrance did not appear. Instead, an extremely hard stone slab emerged.
The material of this thing was very similar to that of concrete and was incredibly hard. The powerful explosive had not managed to blast it open.
Chen Yu’s brow furrowed. According to the map, this was indeed the entrance, but such a hard stone slab left him at a loss.
“Let me do this!”
The little boy who had sold Chen Yu the map came over with two strong men; they took out several brightly colored metal keys and fumbled with them on the stone slab.
Before long, they uncovered a small cap in a narrow area.
Upon opening it, to their surprise, there were four keyholes inside.
Chen Yu stared, wide-eyed. He had not expected these people to be so familiar with this place.
Before he could speak, the four keys were already inserted, and afterward, the heavy stone slab slowly opened to both sides.
The boy clapped his hands.
“Big brother, consider this an extra gift to you. But as for the mechanisms ahead, you’ll have to rely on yourselves. We only have the internal layout of the underground palace, but we do not have a master chart of the mechanisms.”
