I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week

Chapter 2800: Chapter 2801: Secret Passage

"Whoa!"

Lin Yi’s night vision is extremely strong, and with the moonlight falling from the sky, he discovers that what is pouncing towards him is a giant wild dog.

But its size is like that of an adult lion, with thick brown fur on its body.

The fangs and claws on it glisten with an ominous cold light.

Without a doubt, a single strike would be enough to tear an ordinary person apart.

Lin Yi’s reaction is lightning-fast; he jumps back a step, dodging the wild dog’s attack.

But the latter is quick too, with bared fangs, it rushes at Lin Yi again.

This time, Lin Yi doesn’t dodge—a black dagger appears in his hand, and he stabs it accurately!

Squish!

The dagger pierces through its skull, driving straight into its head.

The dog, massive in form, struggles only briefly before dying under Lin Yi’s blade.

"This dog thing, its head is pretty tough."

"It’s not that its head is tough, it’s that you’re strong." Luyu says:

"It’s the first time I’ve seen someone like you, drilling into someone’s skull."

"Mainly wanted to test skills, see what level we’re at." Lin Yi says:

"E-level people can roughly handle it, but if we’re not careful, it’s easy to get hurt."

"That’s why very few people are willing to take this route; it’s not worth the effort."

"Give it a shot, see where it leads, maybe we’ll get a good result."

After dealing with the wild dog, the group continues forward.

About half an hour later, the group stops.

Luyu looks at Lin Yi, "If I remember right, the place marked on the map should be here."

Lin Yi frowns deeply; the location is indeed correct—they’ve arrived at the marked spot.

But this place seems no different from others, with no path to follow.

Thus, there’s no talk of safety.

"Continuing forward might bring more danger," Luyu says:

"Although our skills can protect us from harm, in the end, it’s not worth the trouble, no need to create problems for ourselves."

"It shouldn’t be like this; surely there’s another way here that we haven’t found,"

The group stays silent, waiting for Lin Yi to continue.

Watching to see if there are new plans.

"Be careful; check the surroundings and see if there’s anything suspicious."

"Got it," the first group responds.

After going back and forth, after twenty minutes, the first group withdraws.

"Boss, the surroundings look the same, nothing different," Zhang Chaoyue says.

Lin Yi wrinkles his brow deeply.

The map markings start off strangely.

Now that they’re here, yet can’t find any path, it puzzles Lin Yi.

According to the system’s consistent style, it won’t make errors here.

"Lin Bro, don’t worry, we’ll keep looking elsewhere. We’ll dig three feet into the ground to find it for you," Xiao Bing says.

If it were just the first group, Xiao Bing wouldn’t say this.

But with the Yanlong team here, if Lin Yi’s judgment fails, it might impact his leadership.

The first group doesn’t want to see such things happen.

"Wait!"

As the first group is about to leave, Lin Yi’s eyes brighten suddenly with an idea.

"I know where the problem is."

Everyone looks to Lin Yi, waiting for him to continue.

"The map’s marked route shouldn’t be on the surface; otherwise, after all these years, with people frequently coming and going on this island, it would’ve been discovered."

Listening to Lin Yi, everyone understands his intention.

"Is the secret path underground?" Luyu asks.

"It’s possible,"

Lin Yi says:

"Let’s try digging; if we can’t find it, we’ll return and regroup with the other Yanlong members."

"Alright."

Finally, Lin Yi recalls the system’s map in his mind.

Reconfirming the location, Lin Yi says:

"It’s roughly right here."

"I feel like we’re tomb robbing," Zhao Yunhu laughs:

"Had I known, I’d have brought a Luoyang shovel."

"Alright, now’s not the time for jokes; let’s start digging."

"Okay."

Shovels are essentials in everyone’s tactical backpack.

The size is somewhat small, not easy to use, but the hardness is guaranteed.

With their physical strength, it doesn’t take long to dig a pit about a meter deep.

"Not quite there, keep digging."

Under Lin Yi’s command, the first group is full of vigor, quickly digging over two meters deep.

"Damn!"

Shao Yunfeng digs down and suddenly feels the ground give way, falling through.

"We’ve dug through, there’s really a secret passage here!"

Everyone is overjoyed, feeling like they’ve found treasure.

"Sister Yu, let’s have someone keep watch up here to avoid any mishaps."

"Alright."𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Luyu calls a male team member, and Lin Yi leaves Zhang Chaoyue behind to handle the rear guard duties.

Despite Zhang Chaoyue’s wish to go down, in the first group, orders can’t be resisted, not even room to bargain, so he says nothing, just nods and stays behind.

Arranging everything, Lin Yi and Luyu jump down into the underground passage.

Zhang Chaoyue and Yanlong’s members collect some branches nearby to cover the entrance, best reconstructing the terrain.

If not examined closely, the anomaly wouldn’t be noticed.

Meanwhile, Lin Yi and others have entered the secret passage.

As they arrived here, everyone falls silent, overwhelmed by the intense shock.

The passage is surrounded by massive stone blocks.

Lin Yi calculates, finding each stone is at least twenty meters, seamlessly connected with others.

Lin Yi takes out a scalpel to test gaps but finds he can’t wedge it in.

"Sister Yu, have you seen anything like this on the island?"

"I’ve been to the Kandaya Ruins’ outskirts; it’s brick wall-constructed but much rougher than here."

"I feel this place resembles the pyramids," Yu Siying says:

"They’re also built with similar smooth stones, and the mysteries of the pyramids remain unsolved."

"Are you suggesting the pyramids were built using native technology?" Sui Qiang asks.

"Just a guess, can’t be sure," Yu Siying says.

Lin Yi gazes ahead, silently.

Though tunnel exploration isn’t the mission’s focus, being here lets him feel the island’s natives’ fearsome and unfathomable wisdom more directly.
