Chapter 284: Deep Within (02)
After changing their clothes, their movements were indeed much more convenient than before, and no one really noticed them in this black-lit place.
To their surprise, the people here seemed to be accustomed to the darkness and still did their work in order, as if there were frequent power outages here, so they would get used to it.
The three of them cautiously weaved through the passage, they had to find a situation where they could get information as soon as possible, after all, this power outage would not last long, it would not take long to be repaired, and they didn't want to wander around in the light, so it would be easy to recognize.
But they took this generation around, and they didn't find anything more valuable, they didn't see any signs about the inside of the base, and they didn't see the evacuation map, so they couldn't judge the situation inside, and before they could decide what to do next, the lights suddenly turned on, and the power system had been restored.
The ghost cursed in his heart, thinking that the power supply was restored too quickly.
The three of them bypassed the place where people gathered, and walked deeper, and it didn't take long for them to arrive at the guard rest area, which should be the place where those field guards stayed, there were lounges, bathrooms, restaurants and TV rooms, there were water sounds and steam coming out of the bathroom, and a few guards outside were watching TV, it turned out to be a satellite signal TV program, it seemed that the facilities here were relatively complete, and the temperature in this area was relatively high, at least a dozen degrees, and it felt very comfortable.
The three of them quietly walked around the place, but they didn't find anything of value, two people were smoking in the lounge, and the newspaper in their hands was from yesterday, indicating that the place had just been supplied from the outside, and it seemed that this place was not as closed as they expected.
The smell of late-night snacks wafted through the air, and you didn't need to look at it to know that it was traditional Russian food, because they smelled red sausages, pickled fish, and beetroot soup, and it seemed that the food in this place was not bad, and it seemed that the supplies here were relatively strong.
After passing through this, they went to the back of the rest area, this is a wide passage leading to the depths, the food delivery car has just passed, if you want to go deeper to the place to lean on two legs, I am afraid it will take a long time, not to mention that this passage is very open, this kind of unobstructed place is the least like them, the ghost turned to the back not long after, got a battery car back, this is the food delivery car just now, there are some Nobita's stainless steel buckets on it, inside is the leftover scraps from the previous meal.
"Hurry up, it'll be troublesome for people to catch up in a while." The ghost beckoned them both.
"It's a hassle for you to be discovered." Punched and jumped into the car and sat in the back.
"What is this, who cares if the car is driven away, at most scolding the mother, not like the above."
"That's not necessarily, don't make any trouble, we haven't even figured out the situation yet, and it will be quite unfavorable to us once it is exposed." Worm jumped into the car and hid behind the bucket.
"Let's go in first, if we have so many scruples, we won't find a chance to go deeper." The ghost sped the car up and drove deeper into the passage.
There are vehicles passing by along the way, most of them are battery cars, judging from the things loaded in these cars, you are basically delivering meals and delivering supplies, it seems that there are indeed a lot of people here, at least scattered wide enough, otherwise you will not use these cars to send out one by one.
"The base is large enough, the personnel distribution is scattered enough, and the amount of food provided on each dining car is about enough to feed a platoon of soldiers, what are these people doing when they are so widely distributed?" Heavy punch felt strange, and couldn't think of a reason for it for a while.
"It's not all like the ones we just met, just acting as external guards, if it weren't necessary, there shouldn't be so many temporary exits here, and there is no point in scattering small troops, it's really strange." The worm also felt that something was wrong.
"Really, as for being so entangled? Catch a live one in a while, just ask. "Ghost has always been a simple and straightforward way to solve problems.
"Even if you catch a live mouth, you have to think clearly about how to do it, and who to catch will not attract attention, and strive to be safe, not blind." Heavy punch said.
"Let's go inside first, there is no point in talking about this here, strictly speaking, the place we are staying in now is at most the periphery, and we haven't reached the deepest part yet, I guess it should be almost there, right?" The ghost said as he drove the car.
Soon they arrived near the back kitchen, I don't know if this is the back kitchen that supplies the entire base, in short, the scale here is very large, there are people working everywhere, the three of them threw the car aside, and went in from the side to take a look at the situation, judging from this scale, the processed food in this place may be for at least three or five hundred people to eat, and the warehouse behind is full of all kinds of ingredients, just when they were about to choose a suitable place to catch the job and ask about the situation, there was a sudden faint noise in the headphones, Then the sound of the prickly dolphin came from inside.
"Great, finally got in touch, where are you going?" Heavy Punch asked in a low voice.
"The situation on our side is relatively simple, most of the places are empty, there are several exhaust gas facility warehouses, which are filled with various excavation equipment, it should be used to dig into a base, he found an oil depot, I don't know how much oil is stored in it, most of the enemies here are concentrated near the oil depot, in addition, there are no more discoveries." Thorn Dolphin gave a brief introduction to the situation on his side.
"What about the other two groups, how are they doing, can they be contacted?" Heavy Punch asked again.
"The space here is too large, the communication effect is very poor, and it is impossible to contact, but so far, there has been no abnormal movement of the enemy, and I believe they have not been discovered." "There's so much space here, it's unlikely that we'll want to touch them all, so let's find a key area as soon as possible to investigate, it's really strange, what the hell are they doing here?" ”
"Sync the data and sort out everything we pass by." Chong Fist said that their equipment can be interconnected, and all the places they pass through are recorded, and there are computers to draw a distribution map, although it is not comprehensive, but it is also helpful for their evacuation in the later stage, and it is still of great reference significance.
"Communication may be interrupted at any time, unless we are all close to the core area and enter the communication coverage, otherwise once the war starts, we may have to fight on our own, be careful, how big is this hellish place." The thorn dolphin seems to be a little overwhelmed.
"It doesn't matter how old he is, just find a place where they gather, and now we can only fight on our own, in short...... Be careful. Heavy Punch replied in a low voice.
After the call, they continued to explore the interior, and it didn't take long for them to find some parts of weapons and equipment along the way, from small pistol barrels to large missile shells, all stacked in different warehouses.
"Could it be that these guys are collecting scrap and getting so many parts? Did they use this base just to dismantle the weapons on the warships above? The ghost felt that the actions of these people were too thoughtful.
"Don't say it, maybe there is a real possibility, they may have taken a fancy to this base, and then found that the things here can be dismantled or even sold, so they started this side business, which is possible." Heavy punch felt that everything in front of him could be explained in this way, but it barely made sense.
"It's all rags, really, this thing can be a treasure? But their organization is so big, so rich can they still look at this little thing? Probably not. "The ghost felt that this was unlikely, the huge assets of the 'clock tower' were not accumulated by the money earned from these small fights, and the money that could only be earned by taking risks and time-consuming should not be taken into their eyes.
"But apart from this, so far, we can't find any other more plausible explanation." "You see that it is obviously an anti-aircraft missile dismantled from the ship, although it is old and second-hand, but for some underdeveloped countries, it is also a rare thing, and if it is handled cheaply, it is also worth it." ”
"I mean, the purpose of this place's existence, not that these things are sold, I just think they're weird, I can't figure out what they're going to do, I just don't think they need to be so tossed around here for this weapon." The ghost said.
"Although there are a lot of ships on it, they can be disassembled, and there are not many that can be used, so it shouldn't be a bit of a thing." Punched into a warehouse and inspected the contents inside, and found that in addition to some missiles, there were warship engines and radars, as well as some other electronic equipment, but these equipment were quite old, and there were almost no troops still using them.
"This is where they pile up the rubbish, and it should be not too far from their actual stationing point." The ghost said.
They also found a large number of AK rifles in another warehouse, although it is impossible to determine how many there were, but at least a thousand, and they were brand new, judging by the production date above, such a product that left the factory in the early 90s of the last century.
"I guess it's the base's last weapons purchase." The ghost took out one and checked it, and the maintenance was okay, but I didn't expect this to have such a large inventory of weapons.
"It's a pity there are no bullets." The worm said in a circle.
"What about this thing? Keep it or ......," the ghost asked with a punch.
Heavy punch thought for a while before saying, "This place is too big, maybe it won't take long for us to get to the signal, even if we have explosives, it may not be useful, unless it is timed, but the current situation I really don't know this place at all, it's hard to say how long we want to toss here, or don't startle the snake first, why don't you just light the gun?" Leave it alone and let's go. ”
The further they went, the more things they found piled up here, and most of them were dismantled from warships, not only weapons, but also some ship parts, even giant propeller shafts, military radars, I really don't know how the people here got these things.
"What the hell is the hell this place for?" The ghost is getting more and more strange, this place covers such a large area, could it be that the 'clock tower' is used as a scrap yard?
"Who knows, if you want to find out the situation here, I'm afraid you have to go deeper." Punch shook his head, unsure what it was for.
The scale of the entire base is too big, they have been around for so long and they don't know where those people are stationed, it seems that they have to continue to go deeper, a few people stopped to rest for a while, discussed countermeasures, the ghost always insisted on going out to get a few jobs, so as to understand the internal situation faster, and thought about it for a while, and finally agreed, after all, they also wanted to find out what was going on here as soon as possible, so the ghost immediately set off, and after about half an hour, the goal was achieved, Tell them to come over right away.
After the heavy punch and the worm rushed over, he found that the ghost's movement was very fast, and he had already pried the guy's mouth open, this is a staff inside the base, mainly responsible for classifying and counting the parts and weapons that have been removed here, and then coding and numbering, noting the storage location, to put it bluntly, he is a special cargo warehouse manager, and the main business of this place is indeed to sell the things that have been removed from these ships, in the early years, the business here was better, and it has been much worse in the past two years, It is difficult to find buyers for these old weapons, but there are still some people or organizations who are willing to buy one or two as samples for research, but the recent shipments have increased suddenly, perhaps the above has found a suitable unjust head to buy these rags, most of the recent sales are missiles and torpedo heavy weapons, and he does not know who or what organization they are sold to, in addition, he also admitted that the number of people stationed in this place is indeed quite a lot, and the rough calculation is not less than 500 people, But the vast majority of them are technicians and staff, and the real combat force is less than 13, these technicians are responsible for identifying valuable parts or weapons and equipment on the warship, dismantling them one by one by the staff and transporting them back here for storage, and then waiting for them to be sold and shipped away, he has not been here for a long time, only more than a year, and he does not know how long this place has existed, however, according to the description of the old man here, it should be at least five years or more, and in the early days this place only existed as a secret base, Later, it was slowly developed into the current state, as for where these weapons were sold, no one knows, this may only be known to the people above, most of the personnel here are stationed in the area east of the core, where is the command center of the entire base, in order to facilitate the ghost also asked him to draw a sketch as a reference......
