Chapter 242: Passage To The Sweet Cherry City Disaster Zone (Part 1)
Amalia walked along the mountain range.
She occasionally picking up a stone from the ground and squeezing it without any apparent reason.
Yuno Lopes speculated that Amalia might be studying the geological conditions of the area.
But, he didn’t pay much attention to it.
The Sweet Cherry City Diisaster Zone had been open for several years.
There was numerous experts and factions that had researched its geology, yet no one had discovered anything significant.
What Yuno Lopes didn’t know was that in her previous life, Amalia indeed had some knowledge about geology due to mission requirements.
"Brother, is this really useful? Except for the overdeveloped disaster zones, I’ve never heard of any advanced level disaster zone being connected together. I think cultivating in the previous disaster area is quiet sufficient. There’s no need to compete with those forces in the Sweet Cherry City Disaster Zone, where the danger is even higher," Lucia Lopes couldn’t understand Amalia’s actions.
"My sister, this is the difference in your mindset."
Yuno Lopes took this opportunity to educate his sister.
"When you embark on the path of cultivation, you must have determination. When it’s time to fight, you have to fight. Heaven won’t just drop a pies for us."
Lucia Lopes understood her brother’s good intentions.
She was well aware about her own shortcomings; it was just that changing her nature all of a sudden was very difficult.
Amalia kept walmi g along the mountain path, and the footprints on the ground became more numerous and chaotic.
Some of them were clearly not human footprints, and the depth of some of their impressions exceeded ten centimeters.
She stepped back to the place where she just first noticed these footprints, and she suddenly understood.
"I’ve found a possible route to the Sweet Cherry City Disaster Zone. Do you want to come with me?"
After she check it, she come to the Lopes siblings and left them dumbfounded with her opening words.
They remained stunned for a while, unable to comprehend the information.
"What are you talking about? A route to the Sweet Cherry City Disaster Zone? Did I just go deaf and have hallucinations?" Lucia Lopes looked confused.
Yuno Lopes whose standing nearby, didn’t fare much better in his initial reaction, but his rationality quickly returned.
"What route? Are you sure it leads there?"
No amount of explanation could surpass the impact of witnessing it firsthand.
The mouths of the two siblings synchronously dropped open.
Between the two high mountains, there was a narrow gap with tree branches blocking the view from the outside.
It appeared inconspicuous, but if you look down closely from above, you can see there is a larger space inside the gap.
This space was also hidden by the lush foliage of large trees.
Few people came here, and nobody deliberately climbed up to take a look, so it remained undiscovered until now.
"Little Sister, there is really a way here!"
Yuno Lopes was even more excited than Lucia Lopes, and his mind was filled with the idea of what they could achieve.
Lucia Lopes also widened her eyes but she quickly sensed something was amiss.
"This place... is it really so coincidental?"
"Of course it was not," Amalia said, while approaching them.
"If I’m not mistaken, this passage should be man-made, it just disguised to look naturally formed."
It didn’t just look disguised; it appeared entirely natural.
Yuno Lopes complained in his heart, thinking that if it was him, he wouldn’t have noticed it at all.
This place concealed its secrets very well.
"How did you find this place?" Yuno Lopes’s curiosity was insatiable.
Amalia cleared the nearby trees while explaining, "Didn’t you notice the abnormal number of footprints from the mutated creatures around here?"
"No, we didn’t. In the disaster zone, isn’t it normal if there was a lot of mutated creatures? Who would have think it was abnormal?"
Yuno Lopes looked at Amalia and he felt that she was the most abnormal one.
"Some mutated creatures rule the mountains and surely have subordinates. Why do you think it’s abnormal?" Yuno Lopes asked.
"This area is very secluded, with little trace of mutated creatures’s aura, but there are many messy footprints on the ground. It seems more like they were left by humans, so I made an assumption."
Amalia explained it while hopping onto a protruding piece of rock on the mountainside.
Is this woman a psychic or something?
She actually made such an assumption, and damn, she turned out to be right.
The more Yuno Lopes complained in his heart, the more he admired her.
Only now he understood why his younger sister choose to joined Amalia’s team.
This person was truly extraordinary.
While the others were confined by boundaries, she always roamed outside the norms and standing out from the crowd.
After seeing Amalia entered the gap, the two brothers jumped in one after the other.
The space inside the mountain wall could only accommodate one person at a time, but as they ventured further, the space began to expanded.
However, the traces around it indicated that it wasn’t man-made but a naturally formed cave.
Just as Yuno Lopes was about to say something, he was pulled by Lucia Lopes, who shook her head.
Although this place didn’t seem man-made, it was true that Amalia is the one who discovered this cave.
Yuno Lopes pursed his lips.
Fine, he wouldn’t say anything, but not long after, he couldn’t help but be grateful that he listened to his younger sister and didn’t complain about Amalia.
Inside the cave, a dark passage appeared, still only allowing one person to pass through.
The damp and loose soil showed signs of human excavation everywhere.
The person who dug this passage discovered the natural cave and excavated a tunnel inside.
They covered it up and making it easy for someone whose careless to overlook it.
"I plan to go in and take a look. If this passage directly leads to the Sweet Cherry City Disaster Zone, I won’t come back here again."
