Chapter 37 Sacrifice
Lu Ming is not a fearless person.He is just an ordinary person, and he also has emotions such as fear and fear in his heart.

Facing a mysterious "mountain god" who may belong to the category of "supernatural power", and facing the fate that may be the same as other sacrifices-being eaten by the mountain god, it is impossible for him not to be afraid, not afraid.

In fact, Zhang Dingshan could clearly perceive Lu Ming's emotions at the moment from his micro-expressions and micro-movements.

Although he still tried to maintain a calm expression at this moment, his muscles were too tense.His hands unconsciously clenched into fists, and his lower jaw was clearly biting his mouth tightly.He stood there motionless, but his body was shaking slightly.

Lu Ming was very scared, very scared.

But he still made the decision now.He still decided to personally go to the place where the mountain god was worshipped, to lie down on the altar himself, and use himself as a sacrifice, hoping to draw the mountain god out.

He knew that no matter how frightened he was, no matter how frightened he was, he would have to do this right now so that he would not have to live in fear for the rest of his life.

Zhang Dingshan looked at Lu Ming seriously, and his tone was unprecedentedly solemn.

"In order to ensure your safety, during the sacrifice, I, He Wei, and the two of us will follow the whole process. Besides the two of us, there are six elite soldiers who have experienced many battles and climbed out of the dead with heavy weapons. Weapons protect you closely.

Outside that small room, there will be 15 combat teams on call.Each battle group is composed of 10 elite fighters, carrying more powerful weapons.

With the sacrificial site as the core, 10 artillery positions will be arranged at the surrounding commanding heights, with heavy artillery and even rocket launchers.In addition, there will be 16 helicopters hovering in the sky on standby, and drone swarms will hover nearby at any time.

If there is an accident that even these armed forces cannot deal with, there is also a mountain division and air force brigade nearby that can be mobilized. In addition, if necessary, missile troops can also be mobilized.

We will do our best to keep you safe and do our best to deal with mountain gods who may fall into the 'supernatural' category.But what I want to tell you clearly is that even so, accidents may still happen.After all, mountain gods belong to forms of existence that we don't understand.

Now, you can still go back on your word.Our next move depends on your decision. "

Lu Ming knew that with this level of protection, even if the most brutal dinosaurs from the Jurassic era came, they might not be able to do anything to him.

Such intense firepower would blow that dinosaur—or ten, or a hundred—into pieces in just a few seconds.

In the face of these weapons that condense the crystallization of the wisdom of human civilization, the number is meaningless.As long as it still belongs to the category of carbon-based life, it is impossible to withstand these attacks.Getting blown to pieces is the only possible ending.

But... the mountain god may not be among the ranks.

Lu Ming is a pure materialist. He does not believe in the existence of ghosts or gods—in other words, he believes that even if there are ghosts or gods, they must be able to be analyzed and understood by the scientific system.

That is to say, he does not believe in the traditional concept that the "mountain god" as a god really exists, but he does not necessarily believe that the "mountain god" is a powerful life that is not understood by human civilization and has special abilities that human civilization has not yet known. "The presence.

If the mountain god is really some kind of special life, or some kind of "alien" unknown to human beings, then, even with such a level of security, can they guarantee their own safety?

Not necessarily.

Accidents can still happen.

However, even though he was so frightened that he was trembling all over and his body was stiff, Lu Ming still nodded.

"I decided to lie on that altar."

Zhang Dingshan's expression did not change, he just patted Lu Ming's shoulder lightly.He Wei's expression was also unprecedentedly solemn at the moment.When she looked at Lu Ming, there were some unprecedented colors in her eyes.

Respect, and admiration.

At this moment, even she, who is the most powerful among the members of the second team of the thirteenth division of the Planetary Security Bureau—even if she is well-known in the entire division, at this moment, she couldn't help but start I admire Lu Ming's courage as an ordinary person.

"Okay, let's go."

A helicopter stopped in front of the general command center.A few people went up, and the helicopter took off with a roar, carrying them to an unknown future and destiny.

Along the way, the mountains are undulating and the vegetation is lush.

In just ten minutes, the helicopter roared and landed on a temporarily opened flat ground.Here, Lu Ming saw a group of soldiers who looked very capable at first glance, full of iron blood and murderous aura, and saw many people in other places.

The helicopter flew away, Lu Ming turned his head to look around, and saw the cave at a high place nearby.

It is about ten meters higher than here, and the two places are connected by a steep mountain road that has just been opened.From the hole, there are many cables extending out, connected to many devices in the open space, it seems to be some monitoring equipment.

Taking a deep breath, Lu Ming took the lead and crawled over there first.Behind him, He Wei and Zhang Dingshan followed silently.

Before reaching the entrance of the cave, Lu Ming seemed to feel the cold breath blowing from the cave.

Personal contact, after all, is different from watching through a screen.At this moment, in addition to the coldness, there are all kinds of smells such as rancidity and decay. People subconsciously feel disgusted and afraid, and subconsciously want to stay away from this place.

But Lu Ming did not express these emotions.He just lowered his head, focused on finding a foothold, and then climbed up step by step.

When he really stood at the entrance of the cave, the feeling of disgust and fear became stronger.

He turned his head and looked at He Wei and Zhang Dingshan who were following behind.

Zhang Dingshan said: "No matter what decision you make, I will support you."

He Wei said: "In the face of this kind of thing, it is only normal to give up. No one will think you are a coward."

So the thoughts of fear and fear in Lu Ming's heart quietly dissipated a lot.He gritted his teeth, bent slightly to prevent his head from being touched, and then stepped into the cave with one step.

At this moment, a cold and damp breath rushed towards his face.He also seemed to have auditory hallucinations in his ears, as if he heard the smirk of the mountain god.

Lu Ming ignored it, but proceeded cautiously.When passing the narrowest place, he turned sideways and squeezed through.After walking a certain distance and turning a corner, the "small room" he had seen on the screen appeared in front of him.

At this moment, the small room was no longer dark.There is a lamp that illuminates the place as bright as day.

Lu Ming saw six fully armed soldiers wearing helmets and holding some kind of firearm - he didn't know the model of this firearm, but judging from its shape, it was obviously powerful and capable soldiers with daggers pinned to their waists .

Lu Ming lowered his head and saw the altar in the middle of the "little house". When he looked up, he saw the statue of the mountain god carved out of stone.

The head is big, the body is small, the hair is thick, and there seems to be some kind of strange smile hanging on the corner of the mouth.

The trembling on Lu Ming's body became more intense, and his mouth became more dry.

He looked at Zhang Dingshan.Zhang Dingshan picked up a small box from the ground, opened it, took out a set of equipment that was the same as those of the six soldiers, and began to put it on.The same is true for He Wei.

After the two were armed, they picked up the last set and gestured to Lu Ming.

Lu Ming tremblingly cooperated with the two, asking them to help him put this set of equipment on his body.

When the last button was pressed, Lu Ming knew that the final moment was coming.

A steady voice came out.

"The artillery positions are ready."

"The combat team is ready."

"The monitoring team is ready."

"Helicopter squadron is ready."

……

everything's ready.

This means that if there is an accident, if several people inside cannot cope, help from the outside will arrive in a very short time.

Zhang Dingshan's voice sounded after that.

"Now, you can still give up."

Lu Ming turned around, looked at the altar, and looked at the statue of the mountain god.

These two things seem to have some kind of magical power, and there seems to be some strange and strange power, which makes Lu Ming feel that if he lies on it, then, the next moment, something extremely terrifying will happen.

Although all tests have proved that this is just an ordinary cave, no one can be sure if anything strange will happen when I really lie in it.

Lu Ming remained silent and did not respond to Zhang Dingshan's words.He just bent down, then sat on the altar slightly above the ground, then turned sideways, raised his legs, and placed his own legs on the altar.After that, lie down.

But before that, the guns in the hands of the six elite fighters had already been raised and aimed at the statue of the mountain god.

If there is an accident, they will shoot immediately.At the same time, they know that even if the place is small, there is no need to worry about bullets bouncing back and hurting people.

Because the bullets of this firearm are powerful enough.They will go straight into the wall and will not bounce.And those gravels splashed by bullets can be perfectly blocked by body armor.

So they don't have the slightest hesitation.

Zhang Dingshan didn't have a gun in his hand.He is paying close attention to Lu Ming.If necessary, he will pull Lu Ming away as quickly as possible.

He Wei also made similar preparations.

At this moment, almost all the sounds in the small room disappeared.At this moment, the humid air became as heavy as mercury, making it almost impossible to breathe.

Under such circumstances, Lu Ming manipulated his limbs that were as stiff as rust, and slowly, slowly lay down on the altar.

The back of his head touched the altar.Because the altar is short, his feet are hanging outside the altar.

His eyes were level with the roof.

The offerings are already in place.
