Volume 1 The Road to Survival Chapter 56 Planting a heel

Yucheng is only about 300 kilometers away from Rongcheng, and it only takes an hour to fly the flying wings. Before the disaster, residents of the two cities traveled frequently, with many working in one city and buying property in the other. Air and ground control is often required during peak times.

As a child born after the disaster, Luo Youcheng never left Rongcheng. So when he saw the wonderful mountain city of Fish City, he couldn't help but be amazed. Looking down from the air, the two big rivers are like a big and a small swimming dragon, and the little dragon has had enough fun, so he plunged into his mother's arms. Perhaps it is the limitation of the terrain, the buildings in the mountain city are desperately repaired to high places, and the dense turns are full of buildings, but they are also high and low, and they are scattered. It is said that before the era of disaster, the people of Yucheng were most proud of the night view of the city. But ten years have passed since the blackout, and Luo Youcheng does not have this blessing after all.

Luo Youcheng drove his wings around the sky over Yucheng, and roughly understood the distribution of Yucheng's living bases, there are seven bases on the bright side, both east, west, north and south, all of which are at the junction of urban and rural areas, and they are far away from each other. Situations like Butterfly Love Flower and Hongqi Canal, which lead to desperate fights because they are too close to each other, should not happen for the time being.

According to the information that Guangxu has, the mutant laboratory is not in the base, but in the main urban area, with the Yubei District and Jiangbei District being the most likely.

Luo Youcheng set the flying wing to low-speed cruise mode, turned on the vehicle-mounted long-range life detector, and shuttled between the buildings in Yubei District. Towards the end of the day, still nothing. It is still a dead city, there is no sign of human activity, not even rats and wild cats, few have been found.

It was dark, night was approaching, and Luo Youcheng's wings slowly slid between the buildings. After all, he did not give up, hoping to see a glimmer of light. However, he was doomed to disappointment. The wings were like shuttling between the eerie giant tombstones, and the surroundings were lifeless. Guangxu can't help either, his perception is aimed at emotions such as joy, anger, sadness, shock, fear, jealousy, shame, shame, pride, hostility, and killing intent, and if the detected object is calm, he can't sense it.

"This is not normal," Luo Youcheng said, "Rongcheng is full of mutated animals, and it is too dead and silent here. ”

Guangxu also felt the same way, he thought for a while and said: "There are two possibilities, one is that there was once a large mutant creature here, which recently left; Another possibility is that there is human activity here, but their place of residence is shielded from all detection with some kind of material. ”

Under the guidance of Guangxu, Luo Youcheng opened the control interface of the vehicle life detector, which integrates radar, infrared and audio detection functions, but the sensitivity is not high. After all, it is not a vehicle for professional search and rescue, and it seems that it will need to be equipped with professional equipment such as microseismic detectors when you come out to find someone in the future.

Then Luo Youcheng turned on the on-board recording video and asked Zhi Brain to search for buildings with different doors and windows, and Zhi Brain quickly locked the five buildings in this area.

Luo Youcheng drove his wings in front of the Yidu Building, where the first floor of the building is the branch of Hualong Credit Bank, which does not use traditional alloy sluice gates or intelligent security guards. After going around the building, the doors and windows of the entire floor were closed by a dark gold alloy plate, which was impermeable, and there was not even a secret door left. It is supposed to be inhabited by survivors, but it is uncertain if the mutant lab is in this building.

Luo Youcheng parked his wings on the roof of the building. The roof of this building has a ventilation duct diameter of 40 cm, which is not suitable for drilling. The roof door was also sealed with alloy plates. He leaned on the female wall and looked down, and finally saw an open window on the west curtain wall of the building. The window was five stories from the roof, and he wanted to step on a mind-controlled object, but he didn't have the courage. The wings are also unable to hover while on autopilot. In the end, he opted for a leash, one end fixed to the flying wings and the other end tied around his waist.

The 51st floor is a relaxation area, and through the dim twilight, you can see that there are many tables and chairs, and the greenery that once served as a block has grown strangely shaped.

Luo Youcheng turned on the lighting source on his wrist and walked down the stairwell of the safe passage, but the life detection on the monocle never responded. When I reached the third floor, I found that the door to the stairwell was also closed by alloy plates. Luo Youcheng returned to the fourth floor, found an office to rest, and decided to explore after dawn.

During the day, it is much easier to move, the building is very well lit, and Luo Youcheng found a vent in a large conference room.

The exit is in a corridor on the third floor, with a solid wall on one side and a glass wall on the other. The space inside the glass wall is very large, taking up almost half of the floor. At a distance of five meters from the curtain wall, a circle of plant tissue culture racks is neatly arranged, on which a variety of vegetables are lush and growing happily. A man in a sterile suit is busy in front of a tissue culture rack.

After coming to the third floor, Luo Youcheng finally saw nine red dots in the monocle, one on the third floor and eight on the first floor, which is a small indoor living base.

turned on the stealth board, Luo Youcheng went downstairs to look at the two floors, and the second floor was still a vegetable tissue culture room. The hall on the first floor is divided into six suites, with eight people in three suites and half of the house empty. The hallway is dimly lit and the electricity used is presumably from solar panels on the roof.

Luo Youcheng thought about it and decided to retreat quietly, he was currently a trespasser on a private house, and his rash appearance would only cause conflict. He turned around and was about to leave, only to notice a clump of peonies blooming on the opposite wall. Curious at the moment, I stepped forward to take a closer look, and touched it again, only to find that it was actually a three-dimensional painting painted on the wall.

"It's just like the real thing." Luo Youcheng muttered, and was about to take a step, when he suddenly felt dizzy and fell down immediately.

When Luo Youcheng woke up, he found himself shirtless, restrained on a chair, with two forearms fixed on the armrests, wires connected from the hook and loop straps, electrodes on his chest and neck, and a square box beside him. There was no one else in the room.

Luo Youcheng frowned and said, "What is this?" ”

"An ancient lie detector." Guangxu replied. "This kind of equipment has long been obsolete, and before the disaster era, it was available in the thrift market, and many young people bought it to make toys."

"You're going to interrogate me?"

"Then cooperate with them, I have been thinking about how to contact them."

"Who are they?"

"It's all ordinary people, and in their emotions, I feel panic and a faint hostility, which is a normal reaction. It was initially judged that they belonged to a good family. If they have malicious intentions, it's not too late for us to go, and these hook and loop straps won't bother you. ”

"It used to be too inflated, and I actually planted a small heel in this kind of place." Luo Youcheng smiled and shouted loudly: "Is there anyone?" ”

The door to the room was quickly opened, and an old man, in a wheelchair, was pushed in. The old man's trousers were empty, presumably amputated. The wheelchair was pushed by a young man, in his twenties. Next to him was a girl holding a scrolling screen in her hand.

Without waiting for the old man to speak, Luo Youcheng said: "If I say that I have no intention of breaking in, will you believe it?" ”

The old man pointed to the invisibility board, wrist instrument and monocle piled on the table, and asked with a smile, "What do you think?" ”

Luo Youcheng nodded sincerely: "If you want me, you won't believe it." ”

The old man smiled, "Would you mind having an open and honest conversation?" ”

Luo Youcheng shrugged: "Please." ”

The young man pushing the wheelchair immediately stepped forward and turned on the power of the box. The girl inserts the scrolling screen into a notch in the box, on which a light screen appears, and a small green dot swims at a constant speed on the left side of the screen.

"How did you find out here? How did you get in? What is the purpose? The old man asked three times.

Luo Youcheng answered one by one, and the green dots on the light screen did not change.

The old man's smile retracted: "What are you doing with the mutant laboratory?" ”

"Naturally, it's to buy awakening reagents."

"Did you know that the side effects of the awakening reagent are great?"

Luo Youcheng perked up: "Old man, do you know the awakening reagent?" ”

The old man was silent for a while, as if reminiscing, before he said, "This was before the blackout, and there was still the Internet at that time." Although no one has updated the information, we still often go online to find some information. If memory serves, it was 2662, and all the websites were hacked, only to be restored two days later. The content is probably a public auction of five awakening reagents in Yubei Square, and explains the effects and side effects of the awakening reagents. ”
