Although Xue Qiong predicted that the statue would be damaged after eighteen hours, after repeated reminders to be cautious, the planned time to continue his activities in New Detroit was eventually reduced to ten hours.

After breakfast and a brief preparation, the group quickly left their hiding place and headed for their next planned destination.

"There are bugs on the predetermined course in the direction of seventeen degrees north-east... We bypassed them from the north side. ”

Xue Qiong found a backpack, put the statue in it and carried it on his back, closing his eyes from time to time to strengthen his perception and guiding the direction of the entire team.

"Wait." Carrigan was still holding the map, pointing to a point on it and saying, "Actually, we can get around it from the southeast, and there's the municipal office on the West Side of New Detroit..."

"Although the city's wireless communications and power systems have been damaged, the storage there... There is still a good chance that it will be preserved. ”

Xue Qiong nodded in understanding, "Listen to you." ”

Walking through the city with extremely poor road conditions and very complicated terrain, and avoiding the direct sight of the insect patrol troops and the heavenly Zerg lords, the distance of less than five kilometers actually took more than an hour with the foot power of the reincarnations.

Time became even more tense, the Earning Cauldron building was lucky not to be occupied by insects, and after everyone arrived there, they immediately forcibly broke open the iron door and entered the computer room located in the basement, Du Zhenhuan took out the generator in the storage space, and after restarting the servers, Kai Ruigan used a laptop he had just found upstairs to directly connect to the server and started non-stop operation.

Kerrigan was formerly a top agent of the Tyranid Federation, and later became a top agent of the Sons of Koha, and his hacking skills are certainly not too bad. Her talent was useless because the city's wireless communication system had been destroyed, and the physical connection had become meaningless due to the damage to the power system. And her hacking skills, although they may not be as direct as Bai Da's "space" to force almost all the program knowledge into the brain, but she has a specialization in the art industry, at least she wants to get the information she wants from this machine whose defense is far less powerful than that of military servers, and it is as simple as searching for things.

Twenty minutes later, however, Kerry Gambi made an OK gesture, then unplugged the data cable with great speed, and fired a few more shots at the server, habitually annihilating her access in a simple and rude way...

She downloaded almost all the data, including high-resolution satellite photos of the entire city, 3D models, and extensive construction plans, as well as a full plumbing plan of the city of New Detroit. And with enough information to support her, who has a very good quality as a commander, she soon discovered more problems.

"Here." Carrigan's finger gestured to an area on the screen, an inconspicuous part of the sewer system in New Detroit, "Although at first glance it looks no different and intricately like any other place, but there is no maintenance record from the establishment of the city more than 100 years ago to the present..."

"And there's a lake up there, and it's supposed to be the end of the drainage system, so it's a clumsy trick to cover it up... And it's not far from where we originally wanted to be. ”

The reincarnators looked at each other and saw the same decision in their eyes.

After everyone left the municipal building, after a while, in a small alley where the buildings on both sides were already in a state of semi-destruction, the two strong bald heads and Lei Kai cleaned up the rubble on the road a little, and then a round black iron manhole cover appeared in front of everyone.

It has to be said that the round pig iron manhole cover is also a very perfect design, easy to transport, durable, and very easy for pipeline maintenance personnel to open at any time, so that after mankind enters the interstellar age, it can also be preserved as a matter of course...

After Xue Qiong and Nangong You confirmed that there were no insects below, and rechecked the pipe diagram in Kai Ruigan's hand, everyone decisively opened the manhole cover and drilled into the sewers of New Detroit City from here, and did not forget to close the manhole cover.

The surprise came sooner than expected, except that they soon found that the piping system had become different from the drawings, and they actually saw it for the first time in a long time... Mankind!

Although it is just a corpse, you must know that the Zerg in this world are different from the game after all, they also need to ingest organic matter to maintain their lives, and the city has been completely controlled by the insects, so although there are traces of the slaughter scene everywhere on the surface, all the corpses have disappeared. The fact that human corpses can be found here at this time at least means that the tentacles of the Zerg have not yet reached here!

The corpse was leaning against the dirty pipe wall, wearing yellow overalls, and had begun to stink. Nangong You, a great beauty, didn't even need to pinch her nose, and after examining the corpse for a moment with great skill, she said: "The time of death is not more than a day, and he was not killed here, but he lost too much blood in the process of escaping, so he died here... Several wounds were gunshot wounds, without any signs of being attacked by the Zerg... And this. ”

After fumbling for a while, Nangong You took out a card from the corpse's pocket and threw it to Kai Ruigan.

Kerrigan took the card and glanced at it, a flash of joy on his face, "Sean Mattisson... This is the mark of the Federal Ghost Military Academy! ”

After taking a closer look at the body's outfit and gunshot wounds, Kerrigan said with great confidence: "He's the logistics staff there, and he should only be at the bottom... All gunshot wounds are in the back, and they are not made of high-powered firearms, and in the current war period, there is only one kind of person who will carry this exoskeleton with a caliber so small that it can't penetrate the Zerg at all, and it is useless for the Marine Corps power armor, and can only be used to load a broken pistol, those high-ranking officers who have money and women's butts in their heads! ”

"This man tried to escape from the base, but was wounded from behind by his companions, and it was shot by a non-combatant... You all know what this means, right?! ”

An ordinary logistician can escape from a heavily guarded federal high-order secret military base, which is impossible to think about according to the concept of peacetime. And this poor brother was only shot a few times, and finally escaped... This means that the gate of the base is open, the defense system is useless, and there are not many GHOST ghost soldiers left that should exist there, and even if there are still living people, there are only non-combatants left!

In fact, this is also a very simple reason, from the beginning of the Zerg invasion to the time when the army of the Tyran Federation completely lost its ability to resist, the Federation and the bugs have actually been fighting to the death on the ground, even if the GHOST in that base wants to shrink back to save their lives, but their superiors and the superiors of the above-level officials on the ground may allow this matter? It must have been transferred to the ground to fight for its life a long time ago, and as for why this base hasn't been touched by the Zerg yet...

Mike said something cool, "ho~ho~ human beings are still killing each other in this ~ situation, it's really unbelievable~ incredible!" ”

And Kai Ruigan followed the bloodstains brought by the corpse before he died, pointed in the direction he came from and suddenly asked, "Xue, Nangong, don't you feel anything in that direction?" ”

Xue Qiong and Nangong You nodded at the same time, but Kai Ruigan sighed and said, "Generally, some ghost military schools will use... Rather rough ways to train and select, such as radiation and the like, plus there will always be some forcibly recruited students who try to contact the outside world, and this base is built under the city, so it will definitely be isolated by an unknown thickness of lead plates, but I didn't expect that in addition to blocking radiation, lead plates can also be used to block you perceivers... It is estimated that the Zerg did not find out about the existence there, which is also the reason. ”

Xue Qiong immediately let out a sudden sigh of enlightenment, at least he knew this. The laboratory used by the bald head before was isolated with a lead plate, and in the real-world experiments, Xue Qiong had also verified this, but he had not encountered this situation in actual combat, and he didn't remember it for a while.

The next thing was very simple, the dead Monsieur Matilson did not know how much blood he shed, and the fact that he was able to run so far alive before he died was already a miracle in a way. Following the trail of blood he had left behind, a group of seven people quickly navigated through the intricate underground pipes, and soon found the base.

The half-meter-thick isolation door was hidden, and if nothing else, there must have been a layer of lead in it. And Xiao Yun suddenly thought of something, pointed to the round door with one hand, and covered her mouth with the other hand and laughed first, "Senior, look!" Steel Door ~ Steel Door ~ Open Steel Door ~ Puff! ”

Xue Qiong gently patted Xiaoyun's shoulder, he didn't laugh, but he still responded to her cold joke.

Neither Kerrigan nor Mike understood the Chinese homophonic joke, but their instincts told them it was dirty.

Mike asked excitedly: "Oh Xiaoyun, what is the joke you just said~ can you explain what it means, then it sounds~ another language~ and it's funny?" ”

Before Xue Qiong opened her mouth to explain, she said lightly: "This joke is limited to human beings, so you can't laugh clearly." ”

Kerrigan, on the other hand, ignored the fellows and went up to inspect the door alone.

After a few seconds, Kerrigan turned around and said, "The electronic control system is broken, but with such a small slit, that Mr. Matilson can squeeze out, and a few of us who are relatively large, especially those wearing power armor, will be difficult to squeeze into..."
