Chapter 45: The second floor of the dungeon

"Doctor, in fact, I came to you today in the hope that you could take me to see the carriers of the ST virus. ”

After being dragged around by Chris for half an hour, Ling Yi finally had a chance to say the purpose: "It's the unknown creature found in the crater." ”

Seeing Ling Yi's impatient look, Chris scratched his head embarrassedly: "Actually, I guessed it a long time ago...... Sorry for the delay. ”

"It's fine. ”

Ling Yi can understand Chris's suffering: a scientist has fallen into a lonely environment of science and technology, without a confidant, let alone a soulmate, and the feeling that he speaks to anyone is like playing the piano to a cow, which is simply a kind of torture.

"Dude, come with me!"

Leaving the lab, Chris led Ling Yi towards the storage room at the back of the fortress.

Different from other buildings, the interior of the storage room retains a modern sense of both structure and material, and the electronically driven door and fingerprint verification lock are undoubtedly refreshing to Ling Yi.

"It's the only tech building in Deman, and Eland wanted to convert it into a council chamber, but they couldn't even lift the door. ”

Although Chris smiled happily, his old face was full of vicissitudes.

Inside the storage room is a long, narrow passage flanked by many animal skeletons.

Ling Yi simply glanced around the specimen wall, most of which were animals he had never seen before.

"Well, that's it. ”

Walking to the innermost part of the passage, Chris gently pressed the red button at hand.

The sound of mechanical transmission sounded, and the hexagonal metal booth slowly rose from the ground.

"It used to represent the most obscure state secret, but now it ...... Not even fart!"

Chris dragged his chin more like he was looking at an art collection: "In terms of shape alone, I personally think the giant panda is more beautiful." ”

"Thank you. ”

Ling Yi leaned closer and carefully examined the animal samples in the booth.

Inside the hexagonal metal frame, a black monster comes to life, unlike any other species on Earth, covered in scales and lying in a cage like a heavy armored vehicle.

The monster's head had two horns, rising from its brow to the sky, without any branches in between, sharp and smooth, as if polished.

In the deep hollow, the monster's eyes had been gouged out, leaving only two blood-red skins wrapped around it, which looked particularly terrifying.

The most peculiar thing is that at the end of its broad tail, three spikes fold over each other, as if to hide something.

"Indeed, our national treasure is a little better-looking. ”

Ling Yi didn't ask about the secret of the monster's tail, but only thanked Chris: "Thank you, Doctor, for giving me a feast on my eyes." ”

"You're welcome, it's like a lab, and almost no one but me comes. ”

Chris also smiled: "The ST virus and this monster seem to have a symbiotic relationship, which is why it can honestly become a specimen and lie here." ”

"I see. ”

After visiting the volcanic monster specimens, Ling Yi asked Chris to take him to the top of the city wall.

"That's the Aaron Volcano, the birthplace of the ST virus. ”

Following the direction of Chris's finger, Ling Yi carefully noted down the location, and if he had the opportunity to come down, he could go in and explore.

Farewell to Dr. Chris, it's getting dark.

After estimating the time, Ling Yi disappeared in front of the soldiers in a few jumps.

......

As the sun set, Liang Long and Li Le came to the dining place one after another to wait for the meal to be served, accompanied by the supreme commander of the battle fortress, Elander.

"Warriors, the three-day deadline is getting closer and closer, aren't you ready for battle?"

Elander was richly dressed, with gold ornaments on most of his ten fingers.

"You seem to be in a hurry to get us away?"

Liang Longpi did not smile, and he did not have the slightest respect for this "chief".

"How so!"

was angry in his heart, but Eland didn't dare to show it, after all, the other party was the one who destroyed the Purple Flotto Garden without any firearms. With the current military level of the Deman Fortress, even if the whole army attacked, it might not be enough for those cannibals.

"Brother Long, where has he gone, why can't he come over...... Don't talk about it during the day......"

"Shut up!"

Liang Long glared at Li Le and motioned for him not to talk more.

Obediently covering his mouth, Li Le didn't dare to babble again, for fear of annoying the other party and scolding him.

At the end of the potato feast, Ling Yi still failed to show up on time, and under the "careful" care of Elander, Liang Long and Li Le were escorted back to their rooms by two teams of soldiers respectively.

......

The night was like ink, the wind was blowing sand, and a figure in the darkness quietly came to Ling Yi's door.

By the moonlight, the figure raised his hand and was about to knock, but the wooden door in front of him was suddenly embedded in a gap!

"Void!"

Inside the dark wooden door, Ling Yi made a silent gesture before pulling Diplodocus into the room.

Squeezed sideways into the room, by the light of the candle, Diplodocus jumped three feet high in shock!

In Ling Yi's room, there was a room of soldiers!

"Big brother, you're crazy!"

Looking at the six pistols neatly arranged on the table, Liang Long whispered: "Ellander has already set his sights on us, you kill them, what if this main line is not over after it is completed?

"Don't worry, it's just a temporary stun...... Do you still want to continue to use that set of three-knuckle sticks to fight zombies?"

Ling Yi's smile loomed in the candlelight, and Liang Long's hair was furious.

"But ......"

"Don't do it, I have my own arrangements for the plot later...... What about the kid?"

"It should be almost there. ”

Within two minutes, Li Le also rushed to Ling Yi's room as promised, his expression panicked, as if he had just experienced something terrible.

Patting Li Le, Ling Yi picked up two pistols and stuffed them directly into his arms: "After entering the basement, the first step is to open the safe, the second step is aimed at the zombie's head, and the third step is to pull the trigger, understand?"

"Huh?"

Li Le looked confused, looked at the two old-style pistols in his hand, and wondered, "When will we start?"

"Now. ”

Ling Yi took out the paralyzing medicine from his waist and distributed it to Liang Long and Li Le: "Two injections for one person, a powerful anesthetic...... But this thing is not for you to take and stab zombies, take it back to the Manor of the Gods, and maybe use it in the future. ”

Taking the needle, Liang Long said strangely: "Is the reason why you are so strong because of the Manor of the Gods?"

As the mission came to an end, Ling Yi no longer hid it, nodding briskly in acknowledgement.

Skillfully inspecting the body of the gun, Liang Long threw the two in his hand to Ling Yi, and then picked up two more and examined them.

"Sure enough, I know it. ”

Ling Yi smiled and hung the two pistols on his cane belt, then picked up the Ghost Martial Blue Night and prepared to set off.

"Brother Long, help me take a look. ”

Li Le, who was timid by nature, was even more cautious when he saw this battle, and put the pistol in front of Liang Long as he spoke.

Diplodocus doesn't talk nonsense, taking over the pistol is a disassembly, and the speed is breathtaking.

Reloading the barrel, Liang Long threw it to Li Le, and then said: "We have 50 bullets for each person, don't be too fast when we enter, and try to avoid encountering the zombie group directly." ”

"No problem. ”

"Okay, okay. ”

After agreeing on an agreement, the three of them blew out the candles after finishing their outfits, and quietly slipped out of the residence through the night.

"The entrance to the basement is right in the center of the castle marker. ”

Liang Long followed Ling Yi's steps and whispered: "There are a total of 124 soldiers in the entire fortress, except for the 6 who were on duty at night and you knocked out, there should be 10 armed soldiers left around Elander, most of them are guarding near his lounge." ”

Ling nodded and did not respond, the data that Liang Long said was roughly the same as the results he had observed in the past two days.

What surprised Ling Yi a little was that as a newcomer to the script, Liang Long's thoughts coincided with his own...... If he is a companion, he is thoughtful and trustworthy, but as an enemy, he will grow into a formidable adversary.

Successfully infiltrating the central area of the castle, Ling Yi easily broke through the entrance to the basement.

As the three of them entered the basement floor, electric lights suddenly turned on in the silent passageway.

"After being buried for so long, the human body sensing equipment is still intact, and it seems that the central control energy in the basement is still running. ”

Following the light, Ling Yi saw many human corpses at the end of the passage, thinking that they should be soldiers who had unfortunately died in the previous clean-up operation.

Stepping over the bodies of the dead soldiers, Ling Yi held a gun in one hand and a long sword in the other, and slowly walked towards the innermost side of the passage.

Walking all the way to the spiral escalator leading to the second floor, there was nothing but a few zombies that had been beaten into a sieve.

"Let's go down directly, according to Chris, the zombies in the second layer should also be destroyed. ”

Liang Long closed his eyes and listened carefully, but he didn't gain anything: "These are all special walls that are impermeable, and you don't expect me to find anything." ”

Leaning on the handrail all the way to the second basement floor, Ling Yi motioned for the two behind him to follow.

Underneath the spiral escalator, many human corpses were covered in gnawed flesh, and several of the soldiers were no longer human, with dried blood coating the handrails and walls.

"The zombies at the bottom can walk up and down the stairs, otherwise the Deman soldiers wouldn't have died so much if they were prepared. ”

Gently kicking away the soldier's stump, Ling Yi continued to follow the lights on both sides of the passage.

Walking up to a circular container, everyone saw an open metal door at the end of the road, on the left and right sides.

"It's a fork in the road, what do we do next?"

Liang Long set his eyes on Ling Yi, as if waiting for the other party's decision.

"It's quicker but also more dangerous, and it's obviously a more reliable way to go it alone, but if there are no zombies on either road, it's a waste of time. ”

After pondering for a moment, and without waiting for Ling Yi to answer, Li Le, who was standing at the back of the line, suddenly proposed: "Let's go separately, otherwise the area of the basement is too large, and if the second floor is delayed for too long, it will be bad if the fainting soldiers in your house are found." ”
