Chapter 43: Red
"Did you find any clues?"
The sound of arbitration came from the street, and three figures searched near a factory building.
"The clue is to find ......" the little boy wiped the sweat from his head, lifted the machine in his hand and connected to the electronic device in the alley next to him and shook it towards the arbitrator, "The information found by the terminal is consistent, and it does not cover up any historical traces, so it is easy to find." But because of this, the circuits in this area are almost everywhere with the 'footprints' left by these data, and it is impossible to pinpoint them at all. ”
The arbitrator nodded slightly, turned around and said, "Ino, what about you?" ”
The middle-aged uncle directly unplugged the equipment that was connected to various street circuits, and said: "The flow direction is very clear, it is in this area. ”
"Good. Shorty, let's go in and have a look. ”
Little Man: "......"
……
The dark underground of the factory is a dimly lit underground space, and all kinds of waste and debris are piled up in all corners.
Countless scrap metal and residual energy are assembled into a crude mechanical body, which is made into various transmission steel plates as building materials for the underground space, and countless broken circuits and wiring are re-linked together to provide energy for the operation of the entire underground space.
"Boom ......"
The roar of the machinery was accompanied by a small scraping sound, and a huge white jar slowly turning behind a huge machine stopped at an entrance, looking like an old-time mixer, but the machine was very rough and covered with rust of various sizes, and if it was placed in the city, it would be immediately dragged away.
A red glow lit up not far from the machine, and the four red glow-in-the-dark sticks were especially noticeable in the dim light. After a wave of the glow-in-the-dark rod, something like a car door on the large machine made a screeching sound, and as the heavily rusted machinery slowly disintegrated up and down, a piece of metal door slowly opened with the same harsh grinding sound.
Four glow sticks not far away stopped waving and quickly approached the large truck-like machine, the two of which were visible in the light.
Under the dim light and red luminous rods, two masks like broken copper and iron are inlaid with red breathing lamps on the left and right, which feels like garbage masks spliced together from various materials.
The two men with large goggles turned off the lights of the glow-in-the-dark sticks in their hands and beckoned the people in the car to get out of the truck.
"Happy delivery, buddy. When are you going to replace your broken car like a dog? The man on the left propped himself up on the truck and knocked the rusted shell of the truck, his tone full of disgust.
"My ears have been ringing in my ears for the past two days because the boss asked me to do this errand. No way...... Honestly, you masks are really stupid......" The driver slowly stepped out of the car, sneering at each other.
"Shut up, you'll have one soon. What about whale oil? The man punched the driver in the shoulder, who shrugged his shoulders helplessly, pulled the lever next to the oil tank with the red signal light on, and as the roar of the machinery sounded again, the oil tank behind the large machinery creaked, and the piercing hissing sounded again.
"Wocao, seriously, I really want to smash this broken car!" One of the men covered his ears and kicked the tanker truck in front of him fiercely.
Soon, the cacophony stopped, and a faint blue light glowed from a transparent jar, and the cloudy azure whale oil emitted the same color, reflecting the entire surrounding environment into a large blue color.
"Look at these things that have been dug out of the sea, they're all good!" The driver smiled and slapped the whale oil jar hard.
"Hey! Be careful, that's ......"
"Don't worry, these things are solid, I ...... anything all the way from the abandoned underground driveway."
Just as the man triumphantly patted the whale oil can, a faint blue electricity suddenly flowed from it into his hand.
"I'm Cao, there's a leak?" The moment the driver's right hand touched, the whole body was also paralyzed, and the blue electricity suddenly scurried up on the mechanical components of his body, and the two people next to him saw this, and immediately took out a large piece of yellow insulation material from their pockets and wrapped it on their hands, grabbed the driver's shoulder, and pulled him out of the paralyzed state.
With a thud, the three of them fell to the ground in unison.
", you idiot......" scolding stood up from the ground, and the two masked men lifted the mask on their mouths and put it back above their noses, "Get up and go!" Sooner or later, this broken car will explode......"
"MD......" The driver also screamed and got up from the ground.
None of the three of them noticed that there was an internal terminal pinned to the driver's side, which was flickering with dense current, and the pixel-like data stream washed over the entire screen, and then quickly turned black after two seconds.
As the blue data stream disappeared, countless dense pixelated data streams flashed on all the networking and messaging devices in the base, and when the personnel stepped forward to check it, they disappeared in an instant, and finally, they flowed into a steel room filled with various miscellaneous materials and energy sources. At this moment, a sturdy middle-aged man was welding pieces of armor with a feverish face.
In the sound of welding, a rough display device on the steel wall behind him suddenly burst into a strong blue arc and current, crackling and bursting in the electric flash, and the fragile display screen was hung on the wall by a copper wire that seemed to be nothing, covered with dense cracks.
“?”
The middle-aged man frowned, turned off the laser welder in his hand, and turned around, his slightly elongated forehead was unusually eye-catching under the dim red light.
Sucking his hooked nose hard, the man walked over to the machine and ripped off the cracked display, his brow squeezing out dense wrinkles.
"It's ......"
Suddenly, the red light burst out, and the whole room sounded a shrill alarm, and the man's face sank, and he grabbed the mobile terminal next to him and yelled.
"Show me what's in those surveillance stuff out there! All the scoundrels have got your guns for me! ”
……
The arbitrator and the two beside him cautiously opened a rusty door.
"I didn't expect this to be the kind of thing in this place...... the little man looked at the various assembled electrical wiring in the gate with a surprised expression, "It seems that the energy supply system can be spliced together from these discarded circuits and components...... The guy who made these things has good mechanical engineering skills! ”
"These things ......"
Arbitrator looked behind the gate, the discarded circuit emitting a radioactive red glow leading into the deep cavernous space, his face growing serious.
"I think we're probably going to have to meet old friends this time."
The two people next to him suddenly turned their heads and asked with a look of surprise, "What?" ”
"These things ......" arbitrator walked directly into the deep space, and ripped off a messy circuit, which still emitted a red light, "It's the ...... of the iris"
"The Red Devils?" Seeing that something was wrong, both of them pulled out the pulse pistols at their waists.
"Nope." The arbitrator pulled out the short stick on his waist and shook it hard, transforming into a sharp blade like a cone thorn, looking like he was waiting for the battle, "It's a rainbow ......"
"It's the iris!"
When the three of them looked up together, the blazing heat was accompanied by a beam of scarlet rays ten centimeters wide shining between the three of them, and the fiery red explosion exploded in an instant, and the shattered steel and dust buried the entire street!
"Burned and suffocated...... Take your pick! ”
