When: Last Sunday in February.

Weather: heavy snow, -22~-15°C.

Location: A hilly area on the edge of the city of L.

The snow is blowing one after another, and the vast northern plain is covered in silver at a glance, and the slightly undulating hills are dotted in the plain like white steamed buns.

It was not until it was close to dusk that a group of people dressed in white daze, through the cover of the vast snowflakes on the snow, moved forward briskly and quickly, and it was faintly visible that there was a white giant beast on its back, carrying two people on its back, it stepped on the snow as agilely as a fox, leaving no trace of its foothold, and their group climbed over the small hills, entered the depths of the low mountains, and finally stopped next to a crack about a meter wide.

"There was a reaction of synthetic metals. The small detection machine that can be held in one hand emitted a flash of red light, although Ding Youlan was wearing a light combat suit that was warm enough, but he was still wrapped like a ball when he was in a hurry, he climbed down from the back of the beast-shaped Derpy, and when he reached the edge of the cliff and stretched the probe down, everyone felt extremely melancholy that he was likely to roll down directly, E Jingbai couldn't help but tug on his hat so as not to happen, but Ding Youlan himself was unaware, and said happily: "This is it!" The barrier built by the opponent is very clever, but freezing will weaken its effect, and the detection machine will react within 100 meters, and the closer you go, the greater the reaction. ”

Fei Rong looked hard under the crack for a while, but it was very dark and deep below, and there was a thin layer of mist-like things blocking her vision, and she couldn't see anything with her eyesight, "No wonder Shu Xiusang didn't find the research institute when she came back, it turned out that they moved the whole nest underground." ”

"They should have another way to go," Derpy turned back into his human form, shaking off the snow piled up on his body, "can't you jump off a cliff every time you go in and out?"

Zhu Mengtian grinned, "Maybe this is someone else's taste." Then he was given a blank look.

Feng Rong ignored their self-amusement and said, "Get ready, we'll go down in five minutes." ”

"Understood, Minister. The members of the group checked their equipment one after another, put away the big hat that concealed their whereabouts when they were hurrying, and only wore a thin but warm combat uniform, and put all kinds of weapons in the most convenient position.

Lin Yingkong stuck a metal stick-like thing in the snow, and its tail immediately popped out a few barbs and plunged deep into the frozen soil, and he asked Ding Youlan while arranging the zipline: "What is the depth?"

"The longitudinal depth is one hundred and twenty meters," Ding Youlan quickly filtered all kinds of data in his heart, and finally said: "Judging from the topographic map of the research institute provided by Shu Xiusang, if they don't expand, if we go down from this position, we will just land on the roof where Gate C of the research institute is located, and we can reach Gate C by moving twenty meters to the left." ”

"Okay, dear comrades-in-arms, let's experience a pure natural version of extreme bungee jumping in the snow~" Zhu Mengtian said with an aria.

Derpy was skeptical: "What if they just look up and see us when they go out for a stroll?"

"At this time, someone needs to take the lead in playing the striker......" Zhu Mengtian came to the crack with a deep face, and ...... with righteousness Raised his foot and kicked E Jingbai and Derpy down directly, and then said with emotion: "Jingbai and Derpy are so brave, they are really great~"

The rest of the members of the field team of the General Office were deeply shocked by his shamelessness in selling his teammates for a second, and then waited very calmly for the two of them to send back the news - what, the dead friends are not dead and poor, just get used to it.

Ten minutes later, E Jingbai gritted his teeth and said in the communication channel: "There is a large open space below, there is indeed a large area of fully enclosed buildings, we fell on the roof near Gate C, the surveillance camera has been controlled, no biological signs have been found outside for the time being, there is an enchantment to block, it is not clear for the time being the situation inside the institute, judge the safety, you can come down." ”

Feng Rong said: "It's hard work, we'll be there soon." ”

After that, as soon as he waved his hand, Fei Rong went down first, Lin Yingkong took Di Bingqiao to hold the zipline and jumped down, and followed the trend, Zhu Mengtian carried Ding Youlan in third place, after the seal was broken, the distance of more than 100 meters, they all went down in less than three minutes, and this was still when they didn't know what detection methods the institute had, and they didn't use any spiritual power.

The crack is not big, but the further down the space, the bigger the space, no one expected that there would be such a large open space under the plain, when it was almost a hundred meters, it crossed the thin cloud and mist that obstructed the line of sight, Fei Rong subconsciously looked down, and then was stunned, Lin Yingkong, who was separated from her by a distance, half of his body was still above the clouds, and he noticed her pause, and also stopped, and asked cautiously: "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just think it's a bit shocking. Fei Rong replied, there was no heaviness in her voice, so as not to affect the teammates above, and she climbed down the zipline in three times and two times, and landed on the roof with some arcs, Fei Rong raised her eyes and looked around, making a sound of almost admiration, and when everyone else went down to the bottom of this crack, she also understood why Fei Rong was stunned when she saw this building for the first time just now.

- This is a building that seems to exist only in science fiction films, cold and solemn.

The exterior of the completely silver-white metal structure still reflects the cold light when the night falls, the ultra-modern structure and exterior design, extending far into the part of the mountain wall, only a small crack above the head reveals a glimmer of skylight, the natural shading makes this place different from the outside, only a little snow falls, the empty ground is covered with a piece of dead thorns, making this building look like an alien abode lost in a no-man's land, like a relic of an ancient civilization that has been standing quietly on this land for thousands of years, at a glance, it is enough to shock countless people, and they can't help but hold their breath, lest they disturb the silence here。

After a long time, Zhu Mengtian said hesitantly: "Is it my delusion...... I always felt like this place was desolate, as if no one had been here for a long time. ”

It's not so much silence...... It's rather a dead silence, a silence like death where all living things don't exist.

"We really didn't see any living people nearby," E Jingbai and Derpy gathered from two directions, and Derpy said, "Footprints, household garbage, vehicles...... We didn't see any of that, and it felt like it had been abandoned. ”

"It's hard to say, after all, twenty years have passed. Di Bing said skillfully.

"But the enchantment is still operating," Ding Youlan stared at the value of the instrument in his hand, and said with some confusion: "And the fluctuation of spiritual power is still very violent, even if this place is abandoned, it is possible that someone will come back to regularly maintain it and add energy." ”

"That doesn't make sense," Fei Rong shook her head, "If it's all abandoned, why are they running back?" and the building looked brand new and intact, she couldn't figure out the point of Luo Cheng giving up this place.

"Could it be that the four exits A, B, C, and D are just fake, and they are coming in and out from somewhere else?" Zhu Mengtian put forward a hypothesis.

"It's not like ......" Lin Yingkong had already run to the edge of the roof to cautiously inspect the door of exit C while they were discussing, and then spoke: "This door is not sealed, it can't be a fake door, but it is also sealed, my shadow beast can't enter." ”

"So what's going on?" Fei Rong was very puzzled, she thought that there would be a big battle waiting for them when they came here, and she was looking forward to it all the way, but when she came here, she didn't even see a ghost.

"Can you check the signs of life?" Feng Rong turned his head and asked Ding Youlan, who was frowning.

Ding Youlan had already taken out his handheld computer, connected to the detection instrument, imported a series of data into it, and analyzed it quickly for a moment before he said: "I haven't found any signs of life for the time being, but this enchantment ......"

He hesitated for a while and didn't speak, then let out a "huh?" and crouched down to look at his computer screen, "What's wrong with the enchantment?"

Ding Youlan stared at the screen intently, "At first, I thought it was an enchantment of defense and anti-detection, but judging from the peak of the data, its internal defense will be a little stronger......"

"Say something I understand. Zhu Mengtian covered his head with a headache, he still felt that he did not have the ability to understand Ding Youlan's so-called scientist's "human words".

"Ahem," Ding Youlan summed up awkwardly, "I mean, this enchantment is more inclined to besiege this institute than to defend the enemy externally...... In other words, they opened this barrier in order to trap the people in the institute...... Or something. ”

The rest of the field service team of the General Office was silent for a moment, and Zhu Meng Tiancai said with a subtle expression: "I don't know why, I have a premonition that is not very good......

Derpy puffed out his face and said in a tangled voice, "Can I say I thought of Resident Evil?"

Fei Rong raised her hand, "I also thought of the walking dead." ”

Di Bingqiao touched his chin, "There are aliens or something...... in short, this similar film can describe their current situation.

E Jingbai almost distorted his face and paralyzed face, "Do you have to make up those things in your brain?" He was once dragged by this group of pig teammates to Zhu Meng Tian's family to watch these TV series and movies on the super large screen, as a zombie who lives on blood and has extremely strong psychological quality, he said that he was about to be disgusted and vomited - human imagination is the culprit who destroys the world!

Feng Rong was also defeated by them, "Who can provide some reliable guesses?"

Lin Yingkong, as the minister's intimate little padded jacket, stepped forward in time and said seriously: "Actually, I think it is almost the same as what they said, at least the principle is the same." "It's probably the paranormal world's version of the Monster Havoc Institute...... Oh, well, he didn't want this speculation to come true, it was too much for the eyes and stomach to fight.

Feng Rong was helpless, "Okay, everyone in pairs, survey the terrain around here, Jingbai stay here with Xiaolan, find a way to open the C door, and capture someone alive if there is a danger, in short, be careful." ”

Everyone lowered their voices and replied, "Yes, Minister. ”

So the six people dispersed, in this silent underground to explore carefully, and when night fell, the bottom of this cliff also became pitch black, and it was a moonless and starless night, basically it can be said that they couldn't see their fingers, the field team of the general office searched for almost an hour, and really did not find any trace of creatures, and this weather even insects or something is estimated to be either hibernation or freeze to death, it seems that this place is becoming more and more silent and weird, and in the end, everyone simply shines on this silent dormant building with a wolf's eye flashlight, and the silver-white metal looks colder and colder under the cold white light, like people touching their hands, it will be stuck because of excessive coldness, and when you want to retreat, you have to tear off a layer of skin alive.

"I'm afraid this place is really abandoned. When gathering, Lin Yingkong said like this, his tone was a little solemn, he thought that he couldn't find the research institute where Shu Xiusang stayed back then, he thought that he would come and pounce on the air, only to see a ruin, and he also thought that he would make the other party retreat quickly after he came, but he didn't think that this place obviously looked perfect, but it seemed like everything was abandoned.

Ding Youlan said: "The camera is indeed running, but there is no sign of human control, and there is no sign of transmitting signals to the outside world. ”

"In other words, we can have a big fight here and no one can see it?" Fei Rong asked with some excitement.

Lin Yingkong, who was pondering, glanced up at her, "Rongzi, you really want to do a big job?"

Fei Rong immediately said: "Yes, the living Superman vs. Monster, it's exciting to think about it...... Ahem, no, I mean it's good to be able to work, and I'm looking forward to serving the people!"

It is good to serve the people...... But Rongzi, you can't be so excited...... Zhu Meng Tian and the others immediately used their expressions to silently express how they despised a person, and Fei Rong immediately became angry-Aren't you also excited?

Di Bingqiao looked at the sky - have you forgotten that selling teammates is the tradition of our general office field team?

Fei Rong: The feeling of "......" is a sense of feng shui taking turns...... Just now, when she saw Zhu Mengtian selling his teammates, she also stood by like this......

"Okay, be vigilant, don't take it lightly," Feng Rong motioned for them to concentrate a little, don't keep thinking about what they have, "Xiaolan, can you open the door?"

"Well, yes, the history here is indeed twenty years, and the lock used is the most advanced twenty years ago, intelligently controlled, and it is quite awesome now, but ......" Ding Youlan smiled slightly, with absolute confidence in the field he is good at, "For me, it's all trivial." ”
