Chapter 133: The Ancient City Underground
Everyone went all the way deeper into the ruins, and due to the age, cracks appeared in the surrounding walls and ground, and various fragments fell to the ground.
Continue to walk forward, to the exit of the passage, there is a rather large underground space, is the dwarf town thousands of years ago, a dead silence, the former prosperity has disappeared, and after being stolen by adventurers, the valuable things are basically dug up.
"It's spectacular~"
This is what everyone thinks at the moment, and it is amazing that the dwarves can build a scientific civilization thousands of years ago that far surpasses the current one.
"But the town is so big, how do you find a spaceship?" Shihua lamented that if she searched room by room, she didn't know when she would find it.
"Let's start with the most special building, like the tallest building." Bai Yan pointed to the building that was much taller than the surrounding houses, presumably the center of the town, where there might be a clue.
Everyone raised torches, illuminated the darkness of the city, walked through the ancient streets, and came to the most magnificent dwarven mansion, there were no more adventurers who thought the same as Bai Yan, they had already arrived at this mansion, rummaging through the cabinets like locusts to search for anything valuable, for Bai Yan and his party, they only glanced at it with contempt.
"Wow! Find a Golden Statue! "Suddenly, an adventurer scoured a gold-made statue from the cupboard, perhaps left by a previous adventurer, and picked up a leak.
"Poof!"
However, before the poor man could be happy, he was brutally killed by his companions, and the sword pierced his chest and snatched the statue from his hands, and he could not believe until he died that the good brother who had lived and died together would kill a statue for the sake of it.
Other adventurers have no accidents, they have long been accustomed to it, and it will be okay to make a fortune with a good silence, but if you want to shout so loudly, isn't it death? In the face of interests, who talks to you about brothers?
Michelle opened her mouth and stammered: "This is too cruel, you have to fight each other for the treasure?" ”
"Isn't that normal? The adventurers here are actually a bunch of bandits and thieves, and we need to be careful not to be attacked by them. "Bai Yan is not surprised, he has been on guard for a long time, if these guys dare to fight their ideas, he doesn't mind killing them.
In the center of the lobby of the building is an elevator, but it has long been out of power and cannot be started, and next to it is a sign indicating the function of the floor, but unfortunately the text is not incomprehensible.
Others couldn't understand what kind of equipment the elevator was, but Bai Yan and Shihua knew what it did, after all, their civilization was a modern civilization, the closest to alien technology.
"Ai-chan, can you translate the dwarven text on it?" Bai Yan asked.
Ai-chan appeared through the TEK armored holographic projection of Shihua, only the size of a figure, floating in the air, looked at the text on it, and said in surprise: "Hehe! You've found the right place, this is the Research Building! The third basement floor is the core research room, which requires certification to enter, and can only be entered by elevator. ”
"But the elevator is dead." Ten ikebana.
"Maybe we can go to the energy room to have a look, maybe there is a backup power supply, even if the backup power supply is gone, we can still entrust the captain to charge it, the captain is a self-propelled nuclear power plant."
“..... I'm not at all happy to hear you say that. Bai Yan glanced at Ai-chan, although his discharge ability was strong, he was not used to recharge.
With Ai-chan as the translator, Bai Yan and the others took many detours, and soon followed the guidance of the street sign to the energy room, which said that non-professionals were forbidden to enter, but now that the dwarves are extinct, what are they worried about?
Ten flowers kicked the door open.
"Boom!"
The two brass gates collapsed with a deafening sound and a cloud of dust.
"You're too violent, aren't you? Did you study Russian explosives? Bai Yan complained.
"What else can you do if you don't?"
As soon as Shihua finished speaking, a few red lights lit up in the dark energy room, which was not an interesting thing, because in the next second, several mechanical dwarf guards rushed out, treating Bai Yan and the others as intruders.
"What the hell? Transformers? Shihua was surprised.
These dwarven guards have robots on their upper bodies, long swords on their two hands to attack enemies, and onewheels on their lower bodies, allowing them to move quickly, much like Transformers.
"Sister Shihua, be careful!"
Shihua's energy gun is a long-distance attack, and it is very disadvantageous to be guarded by the dwarves at close range, seeing that the dwarf guards are about to split the sword, Michelle desperately blocked in front of Shihua, but after the dwarf long sword was cut down, only a light gray trace was left on Michelle's keel plate armor, and I had to admire the strong defense of the keel.
"Are you all right!?" Ciri quickly drew his steel sword and slashed at the back of another dwarven guard, hearing a 'ding' sound, the dwarven guards were not painful, their whole bodies were made of hard metal, and ordinary weapons could not help them at all.
Since physical damage doesn't work, elemental damage should always work, right? Connor released a lightning strike, metal is the easiest to conduct electricity, but these robots rely on the energy of the mystery to act, not afraid of electricity, the only weakness may be ice and fire, but it takes a lot of time to freeze the guards or use fire to melt them, and how can this work now? Machine guards don't stand stupidly in place.
Bai Yan enlarged slightly, grabbed one of the machine guards with one hand, and smashed them to the ground, shattering them to pieces, and the gears and shards inside were torn apart.
Miracles are a great thing!
The dwarf guards didn't resist falling, especially Bai Yan's strength of several tons, which was extremely terrifying.
"Okay, it's settled, it's all right, right?" Bai Yan asked.
Because the dwarven guards attacked so suddenly, everyone was embarrassed to rush into battle.
"It's fine."
Except for Michelle, who was slashed with a sword, and the damage was offset by the armor, no one was injured.
"Well, be careful next time you open the door, maybe there are such machine guards, I really don't understand how they work?"
If Bai Yan knew, he would probably be able to make a Gundam.
Solve the machine guard, enter the energy room, and find that the space inside is very large, and the left and right sides are full of huge steam engines, which is a reciprocating power machine that converts the energy of steam into mechanical work, and the steam engine needs a boiler that boils water to produce high-pressure steam, this boiler can use wood, coal, oil or natural gas and even combustible garbage as a heat source, and the steam expands to push the work.
"So many steam engines!?" Shihua was once again shocked by dwarven technology, if it was such a large and numerous machine, it was still possible to power a city.
Bai Yan came to the control room, there were many sophisticated instruments on it, and he didn't know how to operate it for a while.
At this time, Ai-chan said actively: "Captain, first press the switch on the left-hand side, then turn on the indicator lights in the upper rows 1-6, and finally slowly push the brake on the right-hand side, it is estimated that it will be fine." ”
"What if it blows up?"
"Don't worry, Captain, I'm a superAI, believe me, I won't blow up, I vouch for my IQ."
