Chapter 316: Energy Life (Medium)
The Antonov family's estate was so large that it was almost a small town.
When the elder Antonov was alive, in addition to his three daughters who were married, his four sons and two daughters who were not married lived here. The estate is divided into five districts, with the castle formerly occupied by Antonov the Elder on the north side, and the main buildings of the other four districts are tall villas. However, it is Isaac who now lives in the castle, and the four villas are divided between Isaac's two younger brothers and two younger sisters. In addition to the castle and villas, there are many buildings for servants to live in, as well as warehouses for various materials and equipment. The manor is surrounded by a stone and cement wall less than two metres high, topped by electric barbed wire. Every fifty meters, there is a monitor that can rotate three hundred and sixty degrees, and every hundred meters there is a watchtower more than ten meters high.
Climbing over the wall, Chu Tianjiang found that within fifty meters of the wall, there was lawn, and it was full of sensors.
Inside the estate, the roads are all paved with asphalt. Although the catastrophe left obvious traces, and the road surface was full of traces of repair, the road surface was smooth and spacious, and the construction standard was very high, even carrying heavy tanks. Guard patrols consisted of platoons, each with at least one tank and two infantry fighting vehicles, and the infantry were all in vehicles and did not march on foot.
It is clear that the security measures in the manor have only recently been strengthened, perhaps just now.
You know, tank fighting vehicles are oil tigers, and a T-90 tank can burn hundreds of liters of diesel fuel in an hour. Although Russia is a major oil producer and has a lot of crude oil reserves near Moscow, fuel oil will be extremely valuable until the petrochemical industry returns to normal. Even if Isaac had all the fuel in Moscow, it would not have been possible for these tanks and combat vehicles to patrol the estate every day.
Perhaps, the attack on Renate's estate raised Isaac's alert level.
Soon, Chu Tianjiang's guess was confirmed.
In addition to dozens of patrols, there are also dozens of snipers hidden in the manor, and all of them are hidden in very hidden places, which are difficult to detect.
Obviously, these snipers cannot be deployed all the time.
It is important to know that even mutants need proper rest, so snipers will only be deployed to strengthen their defenses when needed.
After discovering that the snipers were using ordinary firearms, at most large-caliber sniper rifles, Chu Tianjiang breathed a sigh of relief.
These guns, which fired bullets, were not much of a threat to Nicole and the others. In addition, it also shows that Isaac has not yet fully mastered the use of energy sources.
As early as a few days ago, Chu Tianjiang thought that if the energy body was attached to the bullet of the bullet, the power of the bullet would definitely increase significantly. If you can control these energy bodies to explode when the warhead hits the target, even if it is only a small number of energy bodies, the power is even more impressive. If Isaac had mastered the energy source and knew how to use the energy body, even if he couldn't use the energy body to transform himself, he should think of this method.
There is also a possibility that Isaac has never been clear about Chu Tianjiang's true strength.
In other words, Isaac still thinks that Chu Tianjiang is a relatively powerful ordinary person, so he does not regard Chu Tianjiang as a real threat.
Avoiding sensors and patrols, Chu Tianjiang went straight to the ancient castle of the manor.
Coming to the outside of the ancient castle, Chu Tianjiang suddenly stopped.
It was a faint feeling, but very familiar. Chu Tianjiang immediately concluded that there were energy bodies in the ancient castle, and they were pale white energy bodies, and there were quite a few of them.
Chu Tianjiang was not in a hurry to enter the ancient castle.
After circumnavigating the ancient castle for a week, Chu Tianjiang roughly concluded that the energy body was below the ground, and it happened to be in the middle of the ancient castle, which should be in some basement.
In addition, Chu Tianjiang clearly felt that the energy body was slowly increasing.
The growth rate was very slow, even slower than the speed at which the energy source in Chu Tianjiang's body released the energy body, but it was indeed increasing.
This discovery made Chu Tianjiang conclude that the energy source was in the ancient castle, and it was near those energy bodies, and the increasing energy bodies came from the energy source!
After figuring out the situation, Chu Tianjiang entered the ancient castle.
The castle is so large that it is the equivalent of a medieval castle. According to Chu Tianjiang's estimates, at least thousands of people can live in the ancient castle.
The castle of Renate is full of mutants, and Isaac is no exception.
It's just that after entering the ancient castle, Chu Tianjiang suddenly found that there were few servants and even fewer guards, to be precise, there were no guards with loaded guns!
When he met the first servant, Chu Tianjiang was even more surprised.
This maid, who looked to be only twenty years old, was not only not a mutant, but also had no energy body on her body, but was a normal ordinary person.
Soon, Chu Tianjiang discovered that there were only young maids in the ancient castle, and they were all ordinary people!
Unlike the "military girls" in Renaturi, the maids in the castle of Isaac are very serious, at least very "conservative" in their clothing.
Chu Tianjiang didn't meet a male servant, but he didn't find it strange.
At present, the proportion of men in the world is less than 20 percent, so most men in the countries of the world work in violent institutions such as the military. As long as women can take up jobs, most of them are women, and the profession of servant is naturally dominated by women.
The ancient castle was like a labyrinth, and it took a lot of effort for Chu Tianjiang to find a passage to the basement.
After entering the huge basement, Chu Tianjiang suddenly discovered that there were no electric lights in the ancient castle, and all the lights used for lighting were oil lamps or torches installed on the wall.
This made Chu Tianjiang feel very strange, Isaac wouldn't even be able to get power generation equipment.
Besides, there are so many tanks and combat vehicles outside, and if you just dismantle one of the engines and use them to drive the generators, you can provide enough lighting power.
Does Isaac have a penchant for going back to the past?
Chu Tianjiang felt that it was unlikely, otherwise he should have armed a Cossack cavalry.
There must be another reason, and it is likely to be related to the energy source or energy body. Chu Tianjiang immediately thought. Isaac must be researching energy sources and energy bodies, trying to master energy sources and find ways to control energy bodies. To that end, he must have made a lot of attempts. If the attempt fails, causing the energy body to lose control, the energy body will be rapidly transformed, and the energy will be consumed by emitting and releasing various medium radiations. If severe electromagnetic radiation is emitted, electronic and electrical equipment within a certain range can be affected. Apparently, this is also the reason why there are no electric lights in the castle, and why Isaac hides the energy source in the basement away from the ground.
Thinking of this, Chu Tianjiang quickened his pace.
Not long after, Chu Tianjiang came to the lowest floor of the basement, but there was nothing.
It is a large ice cellar with a large number of cut rectangular ice cubes neatly arranged.
That feeling came from directly below, indicating that there was a hidden room underneath.
Looking at the ice cubes around him, Chu Tianjiang couldn't help but laugh. Isaac must have suffered a lot when trying to control the energy source and use the energy body. If the energy is converted into heat, it will definitely start a fire, and these ice cubes can be used to cool down and extinguish the fire.
In addition, water is an insulator of electromagnetic waves.
This guy is quite thoughtful.
After some searching, Chu Tianjiang found a passage to Xiang Lu on a piece of the floor.
It is a passage that descends vertically, with no escalators, no steps, not even pipes for people to climb, like a deep well.
Below, there is a faint bright light.
The depth is more than two hundred meters, and the diameter has not changed significantly, it has remained at about one meter.
That feeling is even more pronounced.
Chu Tianjiang did not hesitate and entered the passage. Instead of sliding straight down, he used his limbs to prop up his sides and control the downward speed.
Underneath the passage is a room that is not too large.
The room is a cube with four walls, six sides to be exact, all of which are thick reinforced concrete, and the thickness of the top is just over fifty meters!
There were many cracks in the walls, as well as some blood stains that had long since turned black, indicating that there had been an explosion here.
In the center of the room was the energy source wrapped in a pale white energy body!
The energy source is suspended on top of a cement pile about one and a half meters high, about a few centimeters from the pile surface, and the bright light in the room is emitted from the center of the energy source.
Chu Tianjiang felt that his breathing had stopped, and his heartbeat was accelerating, although he didn't have to breathe, and he didn't have a heart.
The energy source was in front of him, but Chu Tianjiang did not immediately step forward.
Between him and the energy source, there was a cement platform more than a meter high, on which sat a person, and it was a woman, and it was a woman who was naked and had her back to him.
Taking a closer look, Chu Tianjiang was secretly surprised.
Although he didn't believe it, Chu Tianjiang recognized it, this woman was Queen Maria!
What is she doing here? He was also naked and sitting cross-legged on the cold concrete platform. You should know that due to the influence of the ice cellar, the temperature in this room is about minus 40 degrees Celsius. Chu Tianjiang had already found out that Queen Mary was an ordinary person, and such a low temperature could freeze her to death in a few minutes.
However, Mary is not dead, she is not frozen, and she is still sweating.
Although he only saw the back, Chu Tianjiang was sure that Maria was a very attractive woman. Although her appearance is slightly inferior to Clara's, her figure is fuller, and her complexion is very good, at least there is no blemish on her back, like a beautiful sculpture.
Driven by curiosity, Chu Tianjiang walked around from the left side.
Seeing the front of Queen Mary clearly, Chu Tianjiang was stunned for a moment. His gaze did not fall on the queen's face, nor on the plump breasts, but on the lower abdomen. It's just that what attracted Chu Tianjiang's attention and surprised him was definitely not the perfect figure.
Queen Maria's lower abdomen is translucent!
