At noon the next day, Nicol did not return.

Chu Tianjiang was a little nervous, but he knew that nothing happened to Nichol, and neither did Rachel, because he could clearly feel the ring on their bodies that was made of energy. At the beginning, Chu Tianjiang gave them the ring, and it was deliberately solidified on them, in addition to the symbolic meaning, he hoped that through the ring, he could grasp their situation in real time, that is, know whether they were in danger. Four days ago, Chu Tianjiang knew in time that they had been attacked by a herd of beasts near the reservoir through the rings on their bodies.

At sunset, Nichole returned, bringing Rachel and the others with him.

"It's not me who brought them, it's ......"

"I'm coming, and it has nothing to do with Nichol." Rachel was open. "Old ...... Alexey asked me to tell you that I would wait until you returned, and then go to Moscow. ”

Apparently, Rachel also saw Andre and the others.

Chu Tianjiang secretly smiled bitterly, thinking that Nichol couldn't resist Rachel, so he shouldn't let Nichole go back to report the news. It's just that Rachel and the others are already here, so it's impossible to drive them away.

"Kelly, are your injuries healed?" Chu Tianjiang's gaze turned to Kelly.

Kelly nodded and said, "I was cured two days ago, and I heard that you are going to seek revenge on Julian, and Rachel will come with you no matter what." ”

"Kelly, don't you want to come?" Rachel rolled her eyes.

Seeing Rachel angry, Kelly immediately shut her mouth.

"Alright, let's go." Chu Tianjiang didn't delay any longer, nodded to Andre who was guarding the side, and asked him to lead the way in front.

"Wait, we've brought weapons with us."

Rachel took off her backpack, and inside were two folded G36K short-barreled assault rifles, but equipped with special ammunition.

There are a total of eleven assault rifles, that is, one is also prepared for Chu Tianjiang.

Although Chu Tianjiang felt that the significance of firearms was not great, it was still more convenient to use guns when he thought of the tide of mutants, especially the large number of first-class mutants. The use of special bullets can also deal with the second mutant, but it cannot deal with the third mutant.

After arming, Andrei set off with the team.

There are two entrances to the underground base, one of which is the aforementioned vertical passage in the middle of the reservoir.

This entrance is below the surface of the water, and there is a strict surveillance system, not to mention others, even Chu Tianjiang and Nichol, who can be invisible, may not be able to enter smoothly.

Another exit, in a creek on the west bank of the reservoir.

This creek was originally a road, that is, this exit was actually the main freight route for the construction of the base at that time, and the excavated earthwork was transported from there, and the construction materials and large equipment were brought in. After the base was built, the Soviets sealed the exit with cement rocks and turned the road into a river, which led to an underground river that formed a creek that made it impossible to see that it was once a road.

At that time, it was Andrei's grandfather who was responsible for blocking the exit.

In some respects, the Soviets did not completely block this exit, leaving a secret passage, but the people who knew this secret passage were almost dead.

Twenty years ago, when they were teenagers, the three Andre brothers followed their grandfather to camp here and entered the base through the dark passages. At that time, the former Soviet Union had collapsed for five years, Russia was in a state of decay, the base was in a semi-deserted state, and only a few dozen soldiers were stationed.

The tunnels are very narrow, and most of the roads can only be passed by one person, and in some places you can only crawl through.

Fortunately, the three Andre brothers are all strong and lead the way in front, as long as they can pass smoothly, Chu Tianjiang and the others who follow behind will have no problem.

After about half an hour's journey, the tunnel gradually became wider, and finally became a tunnel for two trucks to travel in parallel.

Obviously, this is the underground road that was built when the base was built.

The tunnel went straight down, and there were a few more turns, but the slope was not very large, and every few hundred meters there was a ventilation pipe perpendicular to the lun, but all the ventilation ducts were blocked. Decades have passed, but the solid concrete pavement is still intact.

After walking about five kilometers, a huge steel gate appeared in front of me.

Chu Tianjiang secretly estimated that at this time, their location was about three hundred meters below the surface of the reservoir, and the maximum depth of the reservoir was only one hundred meters, so the secret base was indeed under the reservoir, and it was about two hundred meters from the bottom of the reservoir.

"That's it?"

"Behind the door is a warehouse for miscellaneous items. The last time we came, it was full of scrapped equipment. ”

"How did you get in?"

André pointed to a small, locked iron door in the lower left corner of the steel gate.

"Our grandfather gave us a key, but unfortunately he didn't give it to us." Andrei sighed and said, "If there is explosive equipment, it should be able to explode." ”

"Do you want the people inside to know that we're here?"

"But ......"

Chu Tianjiang smiled, walked to the small iron door, turned the doorknob and tried it, it was indeed locked, and the lock was rusty, indicating that it had not been opened for a long time.

It's just that the small iron door is not closed tightly.

Through the crack in the door, Chu Tianjiang glanced inside. It's pitch black, and there are some very old pieces of equipment piled up everywhere, and it's really a warehouse.

"Let's go." Breaking the lock cylinder was not difficult for Chu Tianjiang at all.

At the other end of the warehouse, there was a large iron door, and the light was shining through the crack in the door.

Andrei was right, this is a secret base of large scale, and the part near the dam is only a part of the secret base. Behind the gate is a wide and straight corridor hundreds of meters long, with a fork every ten meters, and there are many scientific researchers in white coats. At each fork in the road, there were at least two heavily armed guards, but the guards did not question passing scientists.

Obviously, what was seen was only part of this secret base.

"You're all waiting here, I'll find out."

"I'll go with you." Nicol immediately volunteered.

"No, you stay with Rachel and them." Chu Tianjiang patted Nichol's face, "They are not familiar with the three Andre brothers yet, don't let Rachel have a temper." ”

Nicol was helpless, and could only nod his head and agree.

Chu Tianjiang observed for a while, confirming that there were no scientific researchers in the corridor, and the guards were all staring elsewhere, before nodding to Nikol and the three Andre brothers, and then opened the door a crack. While slipping sideways through the crack in the door, Chu Tianjiang entered a state of invisibility.

The three Andre brothers were dumbfounded, but their confidence in Chu Tianjiang was significantly enhanced.

The scale of the base is indeed extremely huge, even if it is a quick look, it took Chu Tianjiang half an hour to figure out, the structure of the base is very similar to the city of the former Soviet Union, boxy, each floor has eight vertical and eight horizontal a total of sixteen passages, and in the center of each passage there are four elevators leading to other floors, in addition to three fire escapes. The base has a total of thirteen floors, and the bottom five floors are held by tens of thousands of civilians who have been taken captive from various places, most of them are women between the ages of 16 and 35. The upper three floors are holding thousands of mutants, all of whom are first-class mutants, most of whom are werewolves. The next two floors are the scientific research center, and the place where Chu Tianjiang came out is located on the upper floor, with hundreds of rooms large and small, about thousands of scientific researchers, and most of them are women. On the next two floors is the residential center for the scientific and security staff, with hundreds of rooms on each floor for four to eight people, as well as a cafeteria, a cinema, a fitness center, a commissary, a bar, and even a post office and a sizable library. The top floor is the control and management center of the base, mainly the security personnel, to which the vertical passage in the center of the reservoir is connected.

Next, Chu Tianjiang spent another hour searching carefully, but he didn't find Yulian, not even a guard who looked like a leader.

Isn't Julian here?

Crucially, the vital energy source is not here either.

Back in the warehouse, Chu Tianjiang told Nicole and the three Andre brothers about the investigation.

"Looks like Julian shouldn't be here."

"I think so too." Chu Tianjiang nodded and said, "After encountering us, and when the Wolf King was killed while chasing me, Julian will definitely be vigilant, maybe he is still looking for me and Nichol everywhere." If I were him, I wouldn't be staying here waiting for news. ”

"What now?"

"Are Julian any other secret bases?"

"Definitely, but the other secret bases nearby are very small and don't have readily available power supplies, so it's unlikely that Julian will be a foothold. The large-scale secret base must be hundreds or even thousands of kilometers away, and we don't know the exact location of the road. ”

"It's easy to do, we destroy this base and leave Julian homeless."

"Just a few of us?"

"Blow up the vertical passage and flood the secret base with water. Then blow up the hydroelectric power station, so Julian can't pump the water out of the base. Chu Tianjiang made a simple arrangement. Now, I'm going to get you a few sets of scientific personnel's uniforms, and go to the top layer to get the explosives. The base has a total of thirteen floors, and all you need to do is blast through the vertical passages and elevator shafts leading to each floor, and then evacuate from here. ”

Soon, Chu Tianjiang brought ten sets of white coats.

Although Nichol is able to become invisible, she cannot make the weapons she carries invisible, so she can only put on a white coat and dress up as a researcher. Chu Tianjiang did not pretend to be a scientific researcher, but accompanied others in a stealthy state to solve the threats they might encounter.

Because there are thousands of researchers and thousands of guards on the base, not everyone knows each other.

Besides, most of the scientific researchers are women, so the seven people including Nicol are not conspicuous, but the three Andrei brothers are a bit eye-catching.

At the very least, many of the female researchers I met along the way were looking at them.
