Chapter 70 Underground Base
In the dark and long shaft, the elevator was climbing quickly. After entering the shaft, the elevator had been climbing for ten minutes, but there was still no end.
What comes into view is always cold walls and darkness that cannot be seen. Staying in this environment for a long time is the easiest to make people bored.
Swallowed and swallowed a compressed biscuit, Shock looked up and frowned.
"What's wrong? Do you really want that?"
Xiaoke nodded and said with a puzzled look: "Why do machinery build the Dead Castle so deep underground? The construction cost is too high."
Xiao Xiaomo smiled and said, "There is nothing strange about this."
"Both humans and mechanical hands have a large number of nuclear weapons that can easily destroy each other's ground targets. Therefore, whether it is humans or mechanicals, they should build important bases underground as much as possible. This is a common practice."
Conventional practices?
Xiao Ke was stunned and then realized.
No wonder, Xiao Xiaomo and others took it for granted. The 60-year gap in the era, especially the era gap in the context of a major disaster, should not be underestimated. It seems that there is still a lot of way to go if you want to integrate into this "future society".
Suddenly, a ray of light shot straight in from above my head.
Light?
Sunlight!
Shoke stood up excitedly, squinted his eyes, looked upwards. I don’t know how long it has been before the warm sunshine has been burning.
A white hole as big as a plate appeared on the top of the head.
Finally...going out?
Xiao Ke looked at Xiao Xiaomo with some excitement and a little nervous. When the latter saw him, he smiled slightly and said, "I will be out soon."
The speed of this elevator reaches 800 meters per minute, which is almost equal to the speed of a car fifty. The distance that the eyes can see will arrive in the blink of an eye.
squeak--
Accompanied by a sharp sound of a sudden brake, the elevator stopped. The sunlight outside was very dazzling. Xiao Ke subconsciously blocked his eyes with his hands. After a while, he slowly opened it.
Two men in yellow armor suddenly appeared in front of them.
When they suddenly saw two strangers, Xiao Ke was shocked, but he soon realized that judging from the same armor as those of Mosen and others, they should be their own people. At least, they are humans.
"Captain, you are finally back." A woman's voice unexpectedly appeared behind her back. Xiao Ke turned around and found that a woman in thirty-four or five years old, also wearing yellow armor, was standing behind Xiao Ke and pulling Xiao Xiaomo out of the elevator.
This is a large pit that is not too deep but has a large area. There are iron plates around the elevator where the elevator is parked. The three people outside are standing on this iron plate. Everyone walked down the elevator through the iron plate and jumped into the earth pit one after another.
Looking up.
This is a wilderness, or... it is like a desert, wherever you can't see any grass grows. In a certain direction, about a few kilometers away, there is a large city-like building.
To be precise, it is a ruin of a city. Only from a distance can you vaguely recognize that it was once a city. From the city to where Shoke stood, there are many hills and pits of varying sizes on the ground, and some pits with a very terrifying area.
Is this... the traces left by sixty years and war?
Guangzhou, which was once prosperous, has now become like this?
"Captain, how did the mission be completed? What about the others? Luo...Where is Lao Luo?"
The woman of 34 or 35 years old is about 1.7 meters tall, with a slim figure and fair face. Although her face is not too beautiful, she is also very attractive.
With a word, Xiao Xiaomo and others all lowered their heads. Hu Wenbin stuttered and said, "They...they...they... are all...dead..."
"ah!"
"What, Lao Luo, Zheng Ming... and Tong Jian are all dead?"
Mosen looked at the watch, looked up and glanced at the three of them, and said, "This is not a place to talk. It will explode below in seven minutes. Liang Dong, Lao Hu, pack up the things; Baishan, prepare the car, and we will leave immediately."
"yes."
The two men agreed and went to prepare separately. Mosen followed the man named Baishan and strode forward. After walking about twenty meters, a yellow camouflage net appeared in front of him, covering a pit. He pulled the camouflage net apart, and an armored vehicle appeared in the pit below.
The car is more than six meters long and 1.7 meters wide. It is also yellowish all over. There are even many gravel marks on the roof. If you don't look carefully, it will be difficult to distinguish it from the soil.
Baishan jumped out of the pit, got into the car, and drove the car out of the pit. But strangely, when the car started, there was no sound, and it seemed to be an electric car.
Everyone got into the car one after another. At this time, Hu Wenbin and another man named Liang Dong also ran over and got into the car. Bai Shan sat in the driver's seat, immediately turned the front of the car and turned to the right.
The armored vehicle was very quiet, and everyone sat in their seats, silently saying nothing. Shock looked up and looked around, and couldn't help asking, "Before us, did no one else come out?"
The woman and Liang Dong both raised their heads and looked at Xiao Ke in surprise.
Mosen suddenly spoke, "It is impossible for them to get out of the castle, so don't think of them anymore." After that, he said, "I'll introduce it to you. He is Shoke, her name is Saire, and he is the companion we met in the castle. In the future, everyone will be their own people."
The man named Liang Dong, who is 45 or 46 years old, is a big guy and a bit crazi. He is named Chu Liang Dong, the deputy captain of Mosen's team, a C-level gene warrior. In terms of strength, he is stronger than Xiao Xiaomo who has not exploded.
The woman was named Liu Ziyan, a D-level gene warrior, but in terms of strength, she was much stronger than Hu Wenbin and Jiang Jing.
The 33 or 34-year-old man who was driving was short and his name was Baishan, a D-class genetic warrior, and he was an engineering expert.
These three people are also members of Mosen's team, but they were arranged to be responsible for the alert and protection exit at the wellhead and did not enter the Necropolis castle.
While talking, the armored vehicle drove more than ten kilometers in a blink of an eye and stopped behind the earth slope formed by a shallow pit. Mosen and others all turned their heads to the lookout window in front of the armored vehicle with nervous expressions, staring at the front.
There are still thirty seconds left before the bomb explodes.
However, one minute passed, two minutes passed... Five minutes passed, and there was no reaction in the wilderness ahead, above the Necropolis Castle.
Bai Shan raised his head and said, "Boss, the seismometer did not respond at all. The bomb... should not have sounded."
"Damn-" Mosen punched the car wall with a heavy punch.
"Okay..." Xiao Xiaomo advised: "Boss, no matter what, our mission this time has been completed."
Mosen nodded, looked back at Hu Wenbin, and said, "You contact Dr. Li and prepare to transmit information to the base immediately. Baishan, turn on electronic interference. Jiang Jing, prepare to call for contact lenses and use emergency backup encryption bands."
"yes."
With Mosen's order, everyone began to get busy.
A minute later, Jiang Jing raised his head and said, "Boss, it has been connected. I have cut the channel to your communication watch."
Hu Wenbin also raised his head almost at the same time and said, "Dr. Li has prepared the email and can be sent at any time."
Mosen raised his wrist with his watch and said, "Can you hear me, beauty contacts?"
Hearing this sentence, Xiao Ke's ears couldn't help but stand up, and there was a hint of expectation in his heart.
The sound like nature sounded again: "The machinery has deciphered this band, and at the latest they can lock your position after one minute and thirty seconds."
When this sentence came out, everyone's faces changed, and even Bai Shan's hand grabbed the steering wheel like a conditioned reflex.
Being caught by machinery on land has serious consequences!
Even the ignorant Zhao Ke was infected by the atmosphere around him.
Mosen said in a deep voice: "Is there any communication line that can be activated? We have important matters to report immediately."
"Sorry, the backup circuit needs to be approved by the general in person before it can be used. Other encryption bands, confidentiality experts are under urgent development."
"Damn it!"
Mosen cursed, then gritted his teeth and said, "You can't wait anymore, start sending emails immediately."
Hu Wenbin was surprised and said, "Boss, it is impossible for the email to be sent within the remaining thirty seconds?"
Mosen turned around and roared, "I say, right now!"
Hu Wenbin shrank his neck in fear, and immediately lowered his head and tapped on the computer on his arm.
Without waiting for Mosen's order this time, Bai Shan immediately started the car and drove forward like a flying one.
