Volume 3 Interstellar Expedition Chapter 57 The Heart of the Earth World
The ice cellar and the furnace are the two hearts of the mother planet of Carmon, and the high-temperature water body pumped from the center of the planet carries the heat to all the underground reservoirs, and then the underground reservoirs distribute all the details of the planet to condense and gather to the poles of the planet, and finally pour into the underground ice cellar from the two poles, and heat and pump again under the action of the high-temperature furnace.
There is a direct access to the ice cellar and furnace from the main control center of the Holy Spring. The duo used flight suits specially designed for maintenance personnel to ensure the efficiency of screening and maintain body temperature.
In front of the huge "heart" of the entire planet, the two of them are as small as two cells.
"How do you find this?" Wujiang had thought of the magnificence of this place, but he had never thought it would be so huge.
"Sweep with this. If you call the police, it means that there are explosives, you are in charge of the furnace, and I am in charge of the ice cellar. ”
The "furnace" is actually a super-large nuclear reactor with a controlled rate, and the huge brown-red core continuously provides a heat source for the outer ice cellar layer, and the two silver-white hemispherical shapes of the ice cellar wrap the entire core so that the water from the poles can be evenly heated. The upper and lower hemispheres are held up by secret inlet and outlet pipes. Water pipes crisscross the periphery of the level where the temple is located, and are the key to shaping the temperature of the four different seasons of the temple: spring, summer, autumn and winter.
The inlet pipe runs through the poles, and the hot steam gushes up to keep the shaft from freezing for more than 5,000 kilometers. The rising steam condenses into droplets of water and then descends back, making it difficult to separate the vapor from the water in the entire space.
Blocked by the steam, Fortnik and Wujiang lost their way as soon as they were separated. Wujiang turned the detector's power to the maximum, and circled the furnace as fast as he could, and the blast detector always read zero during the whole process, which made the boulder hanging high in his heart slowly lower.
Just as he was about to contact Funnick, Funnick's voice came from the communicator,
"Wujiang, do you have any anomalies there?"
"No, the readings have been zero, and no one has been found alive here."
"Don't be careless, let me ask you, how did he set the whole engine room on fire in the central church?"
"He gave me a magnetic metal strip that caught fire when it hit the surface of the distribution box."
"Okay, you come up and have a look."
While communicating with Fortnik, Boundless had already begun to move upward, and the two of them hovered in front of the ethereal hemisphere. Wujiang tried to look at the surface of the spherical shell, but the steam was too great to detect anything abnormal, and he didn't understand what Funnick was seeing, until Funnick led himself slowly closer to the surface, and an inconspicuous piece of magnetic metal appeared in front of the two.
"How could you design something like this? This must have been artificially added. Bomic stared at the image of Fernick's magnetic metal sheet, the entire ice cellar made of silver, a small black metal surface that looked out of place on the surface of the entire spherical tank.
After confirming that it was not the original ice cellar, Funik violently tore the magnetic metal piece in half, and removed a metal badge from the force field suit, and the metal badge was immediately corroded and melted when the two touched.
Seeing this scene, Bomic immediately ordered: "All maintenance personnel, immediately go to the surface of the ice cellar to clean up the corroded metal." Circulate module note, no matter what method you use, pump the water from the ice cellar back to the storage box as soon as possible. ”
How to stop the water cycle from being destroyed, that's Bomic's business, Fortnik has only one purpose, to find the murderer!
Wujiang and Funnick scanned the upper and lower hemispheres separately, the upper spherical magnetic sheet was arranged, and the lower spherical surface was arranged three-quarters.
"The neatness of that end, and the chaos here, suggests that he started swinging from that end, and then hurriedly withdrew here, probably before we came in. If you can't run far, hurry up and chase it. ”
"There are so many exits here, which way to go?"
"Bmick, help me find the nearest passage where there is an exit."
"Nos. 506 and No. 310."
"Send someone to intercept the two exits."
Being ordered by an orc for the first time made Bomic feel a little uncomfortable.
"Listen to him." Aimo first grasped the situation clearly, and arranged for the airship troops to also guard the two exits in advance.
"Lord Bmick, if you want to disrupt the water cycle and flood the entire Kamon Underworld, where is the nearest point besides here?"
"This space is so big that one of the eight underground water storage tanks can be broken at random."
"From which opening, you can get through both the water tank and the exit." Before Bmick could finish his ramblings, Fournick hurriedly interrupted.
"Tank No. 24 and No. 95."
"Boundless, you go to 95 and I go to 24 to keep in touch!"
The huge water pipe at the manhole and the two people who flew in protective clothing were like two small insects in front of the larger culvert, and entered the dark depths of the hole.
Suits designed for maintenance are a breeze to navigate where you want to go, and along the way, the huge pipes are shaking violently, accompanied by the sound of hammers hitting metal. Fournick didn't know that this was the water hammer effect of forcibly interrupting the cycle, but he knew that if the rhino people were not stopped soon, there would be an even greater disaster.
At this time, the world of Carmon ushered in the second turmoil after the Great Riot, and the command ship hovered outside the star, led by Gulista and the escorted Lilev and Aiken, who entered the starship first. The second group consisted of scientists, lords, etc. Aimo and Bumick were evacuated with the second group using a makeshift command boat.
The remaining members of the Underworld retreated to the surface one by one, from the outside in. The mother planet of Carmon, the surface of the planet that has been barren for hundreds of thousands of years, is once again full of living beings. The wind and sand on the surface have stopped, the sky is blue again, and people enjoy the long-lost sunshine, real sunlight, although it still causes a painful itch when it hits the surface of the skin.
Fortnik found Dunton inside Entrance 24. The rhinoceros seemed to be thinner than before after a long absence, and when he saw Fernik, he turned around and smiled.
"You have to thank me, I will help you get revenge!"
"I want to thank you for still killing you, it's too early to say, put down your weapons wisely, and cooperate with us to investigate your identity."
Hearing Fournick say this, Hanes knew that his identity was exposed. He frantically searched for the combat system he had used a few months ago and turned on the force field protection to the maximum. But he didn't panic on his face, and still pretended to be okay and talked to Funnick.
"They killed your whole family, and I helped you overthrow them. It's a fact, and with me now, I can guarantee that after this world restarts, we will all be kings. ”
"Come on. Alien. What I want is to overthrow this religion, not to destroy the whole Kamon, to destroy the whole world. ”
Funnick didn't want to nag too much, and fired a line gun to attack quickly, and such a close range of bursts could actually be defended, which was a configuration only at the captain level.
As Fournick thought about it, Dunton dodged, and the ray gun hit the water pipe at the bottom of the reservoir, and the crack appeared, bursting out with a knife-edge stream of water.
"Let's fight, the faster you break, the faster you fight, and you have to finish playing again!"
Funnick has already sent the location of the rhinoceros man's destruction to Bmick, believing that Bmick and Aemor have sent someone to repair it, so what he has to do is to delay the time.
"Dude, remember the first time we met? I have a ray gun, and you have it too. You have strong field protection, and I have it too. You are in a hurry, I am in a hurry to catch you. We can't waste time, why don't we all lay down our weapons, turn off the protection, and then compare our fists and feet? ”
As he spoke, Funnick turned off the force field protection, put down the firing rifles, and kicked them to the side, and the two pieces of equipment that a warrior relied on to survive fell into the cracks between the bottom pipes.
Seeing this, Hanes also emerged from the thousands of overlapping barriers, untied the force field protection and carefully placed it on the rear pipe. Slowly walked in the direction of Fortnik.
Support metals and hinges retake control of the whole body. On top of the thousands of stacks of pipes, the two orcs began the second confrontation of fate.
Funnick thought to himself that he should have better balance than the rhino man in terms of height, weight and racial superiority. So you can't fight the rhinoceros head-on with brute force like last time.
Fournick kept jumping between the pipes, punching and kicking before ducking, trying to distance himself from Dunton as much as possible. And Dundun's fighting system, although powerful, can't help the pipeline terrain under his feet, can't locate and track it well, and can't always catch Funnick.
The rhino man's ability to balance is far beyond Funnick's imagination. Whether it was falling from the upper pipe to attack his head, or pumping his leg from the lower pipe to attack his lower plate, it was easily dodged by the rhino man.
Moreover, the reaction speed of the rhinoceros man is far beyond Funnick's imagination, and he can be accurately caught several times. And the speed of action surprised the lion.
Funnick realized that the rhinoceros man in front of him was not controlled by the Blue Domain people, but a robot with the skin of a rhino man, so no matter how hard he tried, he would definitely not be able to defeat the robot.
With this in mind, Funnick figured out what to do.
After scurrying out from the bottom of the pipe again, Funnick deliberately slowed down. The computer can only capture motion but cannot analyze the intent, and closely follows Funnick in pursuit.
Fournick bent down and dodged the rhino man as he approached, easily dodging the attack and sweeping his leg backwards to trip the rhino man. The rhinoceros man was really fooled, and he jumped easily to dodge. This happened to fall into Funnick's plan, since the computer wants to lock itself as the target attack, it will definitely not notice the chain on the pipe that he has preset in advance during the intermission of the attack just now.
Funnick took advantage of the situation and gently pulled the lock that bound the pipe, and the chain that was originally used to bind the pipe was like an encirclement that tied the rhinoceros man and could not move.
Knowing that this was a rare opportunity, Fournick seized the time to make up for it, and the rhinoceros man stumbled to the bottom of the pipe. Since it's a robot, it also explains why it was so powerful last time, and it must be okay to break free from the steel handcuffs and a few rusty iron chains. Funnick followed the rhino man's falling speed and ran to the ground.
The rhinoceros man who landed on the ground had been smashed to pieces, and a silver-white metal skeleton had been exposed under the bionic skin sac on his face and elbows. Funnick thinks that since it is a robot, there must be a controller, and if you break the controller, it will fail.
Ignoring the pain in his hand, Funnick held down the rhinoceros man and punched the exposed metal and bionic eyes of his eyes. Hanes knew that his identity and routine had been completely recognized, and the chains bound to his body and the lion man pressed on it made him unable to move, and Hanes knew that this skin could no longer be used, and it was time to play its final effect.
Funnick felt that the rhinoceros man under him suddenly stopped struggling to resist, but his whole body became hotter and hotter, and the hand attacking the metal on his face had begun to feel hot. The heat was so hot that Fortnik couldn't hold it anymore, so he rolled over and stood up and kicked with his feet.
Hanes didn't leave much time for the other party, and his whole body burst into flames, and the chains broke off with the fire. The already fiery body approached the lion man step by step, and in the space at the bottom of the pipe, which was not spacious, Funnick knew that he had no chance to win with this burning man, so he tried to escape from the upper pipe, but the lowest pipe also had two heights of his own, and there was no way to go up, at this time, he looked at the line gun and force field generator that he had just thrown down.
