Chapter 303: Dungeon (II)
The tunnel is longer than expected. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
It took almost an hour for the tram that Faeron and Kulona were riding to reach the fifth floor. It's not because the trams are slow......... Well, that's one thing, and on the other hand, because in the process of riding the tram, Fallon also has a general understanding of this dungeon. If it were above ground, the dungeon would look like a huge cylindrical high-rise. The underground tunnels, like vines, wrap down in a ring, clinging to the outermost layer of the massive base. This would cover every part of the base, but the downside was that it would take significantly too long.
However, this can be regarded as a chance to confirm that Faren and Kulona are at least judging from the stations they passed, most of them are intact and nothing out of the ordinary. There were some places where there were collapses and signs of flooding, but the problem was not serious.
Other than that, there are no problems here.
If the biggest problem is to be said, it is here that Faeron does not see anyone, neither the living nor the dead. This reminded him of some historical mystery described in the literature of some street stall magazines he read a long time ago, such as the fact that no body was found in the ruins of such and such an ancient city, only that everything was in good condition, and that there was no one else, as if the city had been completely abandoned by its inhabitants at some time............ Well, regardless of whether what is written in the magazine is true or not, at least now, Fei Lun feels that the city in front of him is quite in line with the routine of third-rate stall literary magazines, and he doesn't know what the purpose of building a huge underground city is, but it was abandoned before the construction was completed, and no traces of life were found.
But.........
I always felt that something was wrong.
Stepping off the tram and watching the originally dark station become brighter again under the control of Kurona, Feron frowned. How so? There was no problem with Kulona's abilities, and she had confirmed that there were no lifeforms nearby, and Feren didn't doubt that at all, because he had also expanded his own domain, and in the domain, Feren had received the same feedback as Kulona.
However, he always felt that something was wrong here.
The abnormality and weirdness of the place itself are secondary, but Faeron always feels as if something is here. It's an indescribable anomaly, as if you feel like there's something wrong with your body, but if you really want to ask you what's wrong, you can't answer. But when you don't care, you always feel like your body is not normal.........
Although it has never been used, time has left a lot of traces here. The lights that Kurona turned on were not fully lit, perhaps because the line was aging or it was eaten by bugs, and only a third of the entire station was lit in the center, which was better on both sides of the road. But in the houses on both sides, the lights come and go, and from a distance, it looks like an ordinary city.
It's just that there's no one.
"Da Da Da ........."
Walking through the streets, Kulona makes no secret of her curiosity about the city. This is also normal, as this underground city is basically built after a surface town, except for the sky. In the towns on the surface due to various reasons of natural and man-made disasters, it is difficult to have intact town buildings for so many years, so people like Kulona, who were born after the cataclysm, have no idea what the town was like before the disaster, maybe they can understand it through some video materials, but this is still a certain difference from walking into it in person.
"Huh?"
As he walked around the corner, Ferron suddenly stopped, and then looked at a billboard on the side of the road - it was a very ordinary billboard, which was being activated by Kurona, and a cosmetics advertisement was playing at the moment. On the screen-sized panel, a scantily clad woman is jumping around, and the surrounding scene turns into a forest, a grassland, and then a bottle of shampoo floats around............ Well, none of that is the point.
The point is that just now, Fei Lun could be sure that he saw something shaking under his nose, and then quietly ran away!
That's definitely not an illusion of light and shadow!
But.........
Even if Pheren was sure of this, the feedback he had brought to himself in his realm was unmistakably against his master's judgment -- in the realm, Pheren felt nothing. Obviously, Kurona wasn't aware of anything moving here, otherwise she would have reacted.
An anomalous contradiction.
Faeron turned his head and glanced warily at the green belt and sidewalks not far away, where there was nothing. The withered green belt has long since been left with only the remains of some plants. There was not a single sign of a strange sign on the dusty ground, but Feren was sure that what he had just seen was definitely not an illusion.
It's only for a moment.........
"Commander?"
"Nothing."
Kurona's voice rang in Fellon's ears, and hearing Kurona's confused call, Fellon shook his head, then turned around and continued to follow Kurona towards the center.
The central part of the dungeon is located at the heart of the fifth floor, and on the surface it is more of a library or museum than a political center. Originally, it was logical that there should be guards here, but since there was no one in the city, those security devices were naturally useless. Even if they can be used under the influence of the energy network, but under the control of Kurona, these devices will only be more obedient than obedient dogs.
"Click........."
The heavy glass door slid open silently, and the snow-white light lit up, illuminating the hall in front of him. Like the rest of the place, it was empty, with only a lone computer on the reception desk in front of everyone, as if it had been closed for work.
Unfortunately, although Faren also opened the computer and searched for it, he still didn't get any useful intelligence information. It did not record any classified information, but only routinely added some information about the list of personnel, and among these names, there were no political celebrities that Fei Lun knew or heard of.
Suffice it to say, there is still no progress.
"Kurona, is there anything special about this building?"
"I'm investigating, commander ........."
As she spoke, Kurona's eyes widened as she stared into the void in front of her. At the same time, the little one's hands slid in the air like a symphony conductor, as if he was doing something. Looking at Kulona's appearance, Faeron only glanced at her, and then turned his head to carefully examine the hall in front of him, and at this time, he .........
"Click."
A soft sound sounded in the silent hall, and hearing this voice, Faeron did not hesitate to turn his head and look towards the place where the sound came from. And at the same time as he turned around, Fei Lun's right hand also swung forward without hesitation, and several scalpels flew out like arrows from the string, stabbing forward.
"Bell, bell, bell!"
The scalpel that flew out pierced into the wall not far away, and then with a strange low sound, Feren clearly saw that a faint, blue glowing shadow flew out like a ghost, and disappeared into the depths of the corridor in the blink of an eye.
"So, what's that?"
Looking blankly at the fleeing shadow, Kurona also showed a stunned expression, she stopped what she was doing, and the whole person stood there motionless as if she were a robot. After a moment, Kulona's body trembled suddenly, as if she had thought of something, and then she hurriedly turned her head to look at Faren with a pale face and spoke.
"Mean, Commander, I didn't notice any anomalies just now!?"
"I know, and neither do I."
In the face of Kulona's anxious defense, Feren was not angry, because he was the same as Kulona, if he hadn't seen that thing with his own eyes, then Feron's senses and domains would not have had any reaction......... In fact, until now, there has been no reaction in his field.
It was as if the strange shadow was nothing more than their hallucination.
