For Pheren, walking in the shadows was a very interesting experience, even if he had done it more than once, but whenever he entered the shadows, it was like a fish in the water, and he seemed unusually comfortable. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info walked in the gap of the shadows, and the oncoming, biting cold wind was just a wisp of breeze for Fei Lun. And now, by his side, there is another companion.

Cloaked in a cloak of shadows, Kurona held Faeron's hand and walked cautiously on a path that did not seem too long or too short, neither too wide nor too narrow, with no past or future in sight. However, Kurona is not worried, and when she received the gift of Faeron's divine power, she also gained the ability to walk in the shadows, just like Feron. When she slaughtered those mutant monkeys before, Kurona used the power of shuttle shadows, which was also a kind of practice.

But now, following Feron's side, Kurona has a completely different feeling.........

The slight feeling of weightlessness disappeared in an instant, and when the two of them stepped on the hard floor again, it was still pitch black in front of them. The air was unusually dull and even stenched. Normally, this kind of air is not something that humans can breathe, but luckily, Faeron and Kurona don't need to breathe it this way. They are covered in shadows all over their bodies, and the air they breathe comes from the shadow plane, which means that under the isolation of the shadows, they are like dead people in reality, and it is futile to try to find them through infrared rays or breathing and heartbeat--this is another reason why Kurona killed the monkeys without being discovered by them.

Because they are not in the same world at all.

"Knock knock."

Kulona stretched out her hand and gently placed it on the wall not far away, and soon, with a glimmer of light, the next moment in the originally dark corridor, a white wall lamp lit up, dispelling the darkness in front of her. Immediately afterwards, with the slight pumping sound of "buzzing", the air that was originally floating in front of me and looked dull and heavy gradually began to become fresh.

"Everything is fine with the circulatory system, there is no problem."

Since Kulona's manipulation can control the energy network, the network system before the cataclysm is even less of a problem for her. In just an instant, Kurona took the place of the original owner and took control of this place.

"Do you know what this place is for?"

As he asked, Feren took a closer look at where he and Kurona were. It looked like an underground garage, at least from the icons on the ground, but there weren't a single car, and there was some debris next to it, which was covered in a thick layer of dust. But there was no blood around, no corpses, nothing but plants that had died because they had not been watered.

On the surface, at least, it seems like nothing more than a very ordinary underground garage.

Hearing Feren's inquiry, Kurona's eyes stared blankly into the air, and it took a moment for her to come to her senses.

"No records found......... Commander, all I've found here so far is the build log. ”

"Construction log?"

"Yes, the contractor, the date of construction, and some records on the construction side."

"So, when did this place start to be built?"

Hearing Kulona's answer, Feron suddenly became interested and asked curiously. Kurona, on the other hand, glanced at her system again and nodded.

"135 years ago."

"Tut-tut......... I really didn't see it, this thing is a hundred years old........."

Fei Lun couldn't help but whistle, but this is also normal, such a huge underground complex must not be built overnight. In the first few decades before the cataclysm, it was clear that construction had already begun here. Later, probably because of the cataclysm, the construction of this place was also stopped, and it continues to this day.

It's just that, looking at the modern architectural style in front of him, it is really difficult for Fei Lun to connect it with a hundred years of history, after all, in Fei Lun's memory, that kind of thing should generally be ancient, or at least have a sense of historical era......... Well, considering the current state of the wasteland, it's really quite historical.

"Now, how much information are you able to investigate?"

"It's not a lot......... The exact purpose of this is unknown, but it is believed to have been organized by a large force, and the reason for this is not documented. The only thing I can investigate at the moment is that the complex is about seven floors........."

"Seventh?"

Seven underground floors is not too exaggerated, but considering the size of this dungeon, then it is an exaggeration.

Pheron's first reaction to this was......... Do Americans have holes in their brains?

Of course, considering the possible outbreak of a third world war, it is not a secret that various nuclear powers are digging bunkers or something. But why dig such a big dungeon under Washington? This is the political center of the United States, and to put it bluntly, if a nuclear war breaks out, this is definitely the place where the first round of nuclear bombs will be washed directly. Now the nuclear bomb also knows that hitting underground targets is the king, in case there is a burrow or something......... Hehe, isn't this just built for nothing?

As for what secret research base to say......... District 51 is in Nevada, so it's not your turn. What's more, considering security, no one would rashly build a secret base for the study of aliens in their own political center, which is not a big deal.

So, what exactly is this for?

For Fallon, this is really a mystery at the moment. According to the intelligence currently investigated by Kulona, this dungeon is still in the stage of "rough house", to put it bluntly, it is being renovated, but it has not yet reached the level of letting people move in. The computer network here stores more information about the progress of the project, although it also involves a lot of top-secret materials and other things, but Fei Lun is a doctor and not a scientist, so it is naturally impossible to see any clues from these materials.

It's just that to Pheron, it doesn't seem like a top-secret facility. The reason is simple, if it is really a top-secret facility, there is no need to build such a large one. A dungeon of this magnitude will definitely require a lot of manpower. But in this way, secrecy is basically a dream. Even if there was no energy network before the cataclysm, and there were many people, who knows when something will be revealed.

"The whole building is intact, there is a part of the collapse......... Probably because of the disrepair........."

Through the information obtained by Kulona, Faeron only glanced at it a few times, but looking at the modern decoration in front of him, he always felt that this "disrepair" was really a little out of place.

"No signs of life?"

"No, so far, no signs of life have been found on the first three floors. But what follows ......... It's hard to say, but my senses seem to be disturbed by something........."

"I see."

Hearing this, Faeron nodded.

"All in all, let's go to the core of here first......... Any idea where? ”

"According to the map, it's probably five floors underground."

Of course, it is impossible for people to walk in such a large dungeon. According to the schematic diagram of the building that Kulona searched, they could take the underground tram from the platform not far from the underground garage, then go to the third floor, where they changed to an elevator to go to the fifth floor......... It's not a secret base, but it's no one who keeps it so tight.

On the way to the station, Fei Lun also went to several rooms around to explore, and sure enough, most of these rooms were newly renovated, and they didn't even have time to place the furniture, but some tables and chairs made of alloy were routinely placed, which looked like some research institute rather than some place of life and refuge. Not only that, but Feren also noticed that several tables also contained used coffee cups and straw paper with messy notes drawn. Along the way, the two men saw no signs of a fight, and no corpses or blood were found. It's as if the people here just left very ordinary, and there were no accidents at all.

But it's not scientific.

Feren knew very well that the cataclysm had occurred without warning. He had expected to see a lot of corpses here. It's more common sense than that, for example, these people are working here, but they lost contact with the outside world because of the cataclysm, and then they tried to survive here, but for some reason they started killing each other, and eventually died or something......... Although it is more dramatic, in the post-apocalyptic wasteland, this kind of scene that is often seen in movies is easier to see in reality.

The underground station is much closer than expected, and it seems that the designers here did have the traffic aspect in mind. It's just that the tram here doesn't look like the kind of tram or bullet design that Pheren knows, on the contrary, the whole tram is polygonal like a box of eight immortals, and there are only two carriages -- of course, there is nothing in it except the console and seats.

Of course, there are no drivers either.

But this naturally can't stop Faren and Kurona. I saw Kulona stretch out her hand and lightly touch on it, and soon, with the roar of the brisk motor, the originally gloomy carriage suddenly appeared with bright light, and then I saw the strange tram sway slightly, and then it drove quickly along the tunnel.

“―――――！”

And at this time, suddenly, a strange voice sounded, which attracted Faeron's attention. But the sound was fleeting, and almost nothing remained.

"Do you hear that? Kurona? ”

“……… This one......... Commander, it seems that there is a ......... It doesn't seem to have ......... Is it the sound of a machine running? ”

In the face of Feron's inquiry, Kurona was also a little flustered, she closed her eyes, frowned, sensed her surroundings again, and then shook her head at Feron.

"I still haven't sensed any life other than us, Commander."

"Probably a delusion."

Hearing Kulona's answer, Faeron also nodded, and did not say anything more, but looked at the dark tunnel in front of him -- because of the disrepair, the lights here also came and went, and from a distance, only a dim shadow could be seen.

But I don't know if it's Fei Lun's delusion, he always felt that at that moment just now, something seemed to flash in the shadows in the distance.
