Chapter Ninety-Seven: Deep in the Iron Gate
The tram headed towards the depths of the tunnel, but to Chen Shi's surprise, the tunnel was not long, but very short, only about half a minute, and suddenly they drove out of the tunnel and turned to the track hanging in the air.
The curved track does not have any support in the middle, but rotates around the air in a hollow-shaped pattern, and the tram runs on such a track, like a special roller coaster, slowly climbing upward.
Chen Shi hurriedly came to the empty window frame and looked down, like half of an eggshell, it was the protruding hall dome, the opposite of what he saw when he looked up when he stood in the hall.
So, are they heading to the top of the tower?
Chen Shi was amazed, even if it was a roller coaster, there were a lot of supports under the track, where it was like this track, as if it was built out of thin air, he didn't see the supports, but he could support the tram to drive on it.
The speed of the tram is not fast, Chen Shi estimated that the speed is about 20 kilometers per hour, which is almost the same as the speed of the sightseeing car, which means that they are taking the sightseeing tram, right?
Chen Shi looked down for a while, then retracted his gaze, his mood suddenly relaxed a lot, he was finally safe here, he had been walking in fear for so long along the way, it was even more terrifying and nervous than in the war-torn Middle East, he would rather go to the battlefield of humans than be killed by some alien creature.
Chen Shi, who turned around, saw 1214-B01 was not in a relaxed state, it put down the trolley, and it was still holding the electric gun in its hand with the metal box on its back, and it was in a state of pulling the trigger at any time. Obviously, it didn't let its guard down like Chen Shi.
Is there still danger here?
Chen Shi was helpless and annoyed, he barely cheered up and re-engaged in the state of preparation.
It's just that in the air, where can you run in the middle of the train?
This seems to be a serious question worth pondering.
Chen Shi didn't think about this problem, he was quickly startled by the movement outside, and hurriedly looked, the tram along the track came to the edge of the wall of the tower pillar, to this close range, Chen Shi quickly found that on these walls, there are iron doors and small platforms for people to stand on, that is, every few meters of distance, there is a small platform next to the track, and on the steps of the platform, there is a closed iron door.
Exactly the same scene, as he followed the tram forward, his eyes were soon left with dozens of consistent small platforms and closed iron gates.
What's going on?
Naturally, he understood at a glance that the small platforms were for people to go down, and the means of transportation was obviously the tram under his feet. He wondered what so many closed iron doors were for. What's in there?
"Bang Bang ......"
It seemed that the faint sound of the tram running had attracted the attention of some people inside the iron gates, and in just a few moments, Chen Shi heard the sound of "banging" from inside many iron gates.
It's not a knock on the iron door.
The direction in which the sound came from was more like it came from the farther depths inside the iron gate.
Chen Shi's complexion changed slightly.
There seems to be something alive in there? Or is there a living thing?
"Crunch, crunch, ......"
The piercing sound of scraping and the creepy grinding sound came from afar, and he couldn't help but gasp as soon as he entered Chen's ear. This...... The voice, it's so terrifying.
Inside the closed iron door, there must be something terrible closed.
Wait, the sound doesn't look like it's next to the iron gate, it's deep and far away.
Could it be that these iron gates are not used to prevent things from coming out, but to prevent people from the outside from entering?
Chen Shi glanced at 1214-B01 and saw that it was silent, deaf to the movement outside, as if it had not heard anything.
"Phew, sure enough, none of these places are safe."
Chen Shi held his breath and waited silently from 1214-B01, waiting for where the tram would take him.
Things didn't go his way.
The tram travels slowly around the tracks, and it doesn't take long to get out of the tower.
Based on the scale of the 3D map he had seen earlier, the length of the tower was probably more than 20 kilometers......
Chen Shi was shocked and shocked by his thoughts, doesn't this mean that the inverted conical structure has a length of 6,000 kilometers up and down, to say the least?
It's impossible, the radius of the earth is only 6,371 kilometers, if this inverted cone structure really exists, wouldn't it all dig to the center of the earth? No, it may not be Earth, but if it is a super-large geological planet, this number is not to be underestimated, which is equivalent to dismantling Mercury and using it to build a Dyson sphere.
And the difficulty of building and various urban buildings is much more difficult than simply disassembling Mercury to make a Dyson sphere.
Chen Shi hesitated to think that people who have to do their best to live naturally can't imagine the grandeur of the universe and the horror of ultra-modern civilization, even if there are scientists who are well fed and clothed to imagine it, they can't be as deeply and shocking as Chen Shi's personal experience at this moment.
"Hey, I really want to hide in the quilt and sleep comfortably now, without bathing or washing my feet, and no one bothered me......"
Chen Shi let out a long sigh in his heart, and it happened that at this time, above the direction of the tram, a distinctive iron gate made Chen Shi, who sighed, stunned suddenly.
That's a ...... An iron door that was opened.
Without waiting for Chen Shi to think too much, the tram drove forward without hesitation, and quickly passed the open iron gate.
Chen Shi leaned on the window frame, trying to cast his gaze into the iron door.
However, inside the quiet and deep iron door, there was no light and no dust, like a black hole that swallowed all light sources, and even the sight he put into it seemed to be deeply swallowed, obviously he didn't see anything, but there was a stimulus that suffocated him and fed back, he suddenly closed his eyes, blinked a few times, opened his eyes, but didn't dare to look directly again.
It's a weird, weird psychological touch.
Chen Shi hesitated for a moment, and then wanted to inspect one or two, but the tram had already passed through the iron gate.
I guess I was too careful.
Chen Shi suppressed his inner agitation with a slight uneasiness, and he tried to seek answers from 1214-B01's side, but when he turned his head, 1214-B01 looked at him with strange eyes.
"Uh, why are you looking at me like that?"
Chen Shi was uncomfortable with 1214-B01, it had never looked at him like it was now, like it was staring at an incomprehensible monster.
1214-B01 didn't answer, no, its answer was to slowly raise the electric torch gun in its hand, Chen Shi gave it the name, a gun that can spew high-temperature flames and electric shocks, as long as the trigger is pulled, it can shoot Chen Shi in an instant.
Being pointed at such a dangerous weapon, I'm afraid that no one will be able to calm down.
Chen Shi was not as impatient as he imagined, his first thought was not that 1214-B01 was going to kill him or go crazy, if 1214-B01 wanted to be unfavorable to him, he would have killed him a long time ago, and he didn't have to do it now.
The last time 1214-B01 pointed his gun at him like this, it was ......
Chen Shi turned his head abruptly.
Another......
Chen Shi, who was exactly the same as him, was looking at him in dismay.
