Chapter 260: Reservoir
This defense system does rely on electricity, Yi Chen's judgment is right, if you want to pass through safely, there is only this way.
"The main power supply is on the ground. There's a control room at the entrance to the reservoir, so I'll go there. Long Yan thought for a while and said.
To get back to the surface, you have to walk through the tomb. Others are not familiar with the situation, and if they accidentally touch the mechanism, they will be in trouble.
"It's more dangerous for you to be alone, Chang Qing and Xue Man, you all follow." Yi Chen felt that it was very likely that he would encounter an ambush, and it would be difficult for Shan Longyan to deal with it.
"Captain, can you change people......" Xue Man heard this, and his face was bitter. She is incompatible with Long Yan Binghuo, and she has not dealt with it until now, and she knows very well what kind of person Chang Qing is, and now letting her act with two nasty ghosts is even more sad than holding a knife on her neck.
"Then Zhou Ying, you go, Xue Man stays." Yi Chen scratched his head helplessly and agreed to Xue Man's request.
What he originally thought was: if he encountered the guards of the nobles in front of him and started fighting, in case there was a collapse somewhere, Zhou Ying could resolve the risk. It doesn't hurt, pay a little more attention, it's not a big problem.
"The Longyan team went to cut off the main control power supply, and the rest of the people followed me through the passage, found the secret room in the reservoir, and retrieved the sample." Yi Chen does detailed task assignment.
"We will probably get there faster than we came, about 30 to 40 minutes. There are a lot of sentries up there, so I don't have much chance to report to you at any time. Long Yan said.
"Yes, be careful." Yi Chen nodded.
"Boss, don't worry about us, this reservoir must be heavily guarded, it is more dangerous than the ground, please take care of the girls......" Chang Qing looked reluctant, and his eyes swept over the girls one by one.
"Come on, get out of here!" Xue Man was stared at by him, and subconsciously protected his chest, even more glad that he didn't have to follow them.
After Long Yan and the three left, the rest of the people sat on the ground, rested and adjusted, and recuperated.
Advance and advance are not allowed, and there are many hidden organs in the retreat, and they are not allowed to move around at will. They had nothing to do, and the wait was incomparably long and torture.
There was a faint sound of water flowing in the distance, and the reservoir was on the other side of the pipe, like a hook candy, which made them reverie.
"It's been forty-five minutes, why hasn't there been any movement?" Ling Zhe kept an eye on the time and couldn't help but break the silence.
"Wait." Although Yi Chen said this, people were a little breathless. Even if there is an error in Long Yan's estimation of time, it should not deviate so much if it goes well.
They must have been in some situation, but they have not been in contact. I don't know if it's something that can be handled, or if it's been taken down and can't be contacted?
This ancient tomb stone wall is thick, with three layers inside and three layers outside, and the space is spacious. Yi Chen didn't know how far they were from the surface now, and in this position, he couldn't sense the breath of those three teammates at all.
Just when Yi Chen decided to contact Long Yan, he only heard a snap, and all the lights in the tubular passage went out.
Power outage? Yi Chen immediately got up and threw out the corpses of several zongzi again, this time the zongzi fell to the ground with a muffled sound, and no laser beam was shot.
"They succeeded!" In the dark, everyone was jubilant.
"Let's go." Yi Chen urged everyone to get up and act. The nobleman certainly wouldn't let this defense system fail for long, he didn't know when the power would be turned on again, and he couldn't delay for a second!
Everyone snorted and ran through the passage, and after confirming that it was safe, they began to observe the situation of the reservoir.
The dome of the reservoir is tens of meters high, and the perimeter is a ring area, and there is a steel suspension bridge in each of the four directions of the southeast, northwest and northwest of the ring area, which connects to a small pavilion in the center of the reservoir.
Below the suspension bridge is the reservoir of a large underground reservoir. Yi Chen remembered that the scale of Xijing's underground reservoir was one of the best in China, and now he felt very shocked when he saw it with his own eyes.
He could hear well, and the sound of the water was amplified more than ten times, hitting the eardrum and making his mind fluctuate.
In the last days, the open air is basically polluted by black rain, viruses are raging, food and water sources are in short supply, and many people kill people to survive, or sell their self-esteem and flesh to survive. And now, he is actually standing on top of a completely pure underground reservoir, and so many survivors up and down Xijing are counting on the water here to live, which is far more exciting than sitting on a golden city!
Besides, how can water be so precious as gold that can be compared?
The aristocracy was very careful in the distribution of water. The Coalition traded with them, exchanging various supplies for water and maintaining the normal needs of their jurisdictions. As for some small alliances, such as the Doomsday Beast Sect, the former Xuanyuan Pavilion, etc., if they can't afford to replace the materials proposed by the nobles, I'm sorry, they don't have the slightest mercy, and they don't care about the lives of others at all.
It's the National Guard, the big brother of the alliance, who helps the small league and distributes water. Of course, the National Guard is not the main one who is wronged, and they do everything for their own purpose - to win the hearts and minds of the people, to strengthen their position, and so on.
In the last days, there is no such thing as a good man who does not want to reciprocate. It's like everyone sitting down to play cards, everyone has a different style of cards, and in the end it's all about winning.
When Yi Chen took the territory of the Fengyun Alliance, he still had a lot of materials and water storage, so he didn't deal with the nobles during this time. In addition, they have a lot of miscellaneous things in the newly formed alliance, and they really didn't know much about the nobles before.
A crazy thought crossed Yi Chen's heart, and before he could think about it, Ling Zhe beside him had already sighed: "I'm a good girl, if only this reservoir were ours!" ”
Ling Zhe has been obsessed with farming recently, and although it has not been for a long time, green shoots have been emerging in the caves and greenhouses along the railway. This is enough to prove that his plans and programs are feasible and effective. The key now is how to solve the problem of the source of water for irrigation.
The river is close, but unfortunately the water quality is polluted and cannot be used, so at present, he always asks Xueman to follow the car once every two or three days, and go there to gather water molecules in the air, freeze them, and then thaw them. This project is more cumbersome, which is equivalent to tying Xue Man to this production line and not being able to get out. Moreover, if you want to start large-scale planting in the future, the water supply of Xueman will not be able to meet the demand.
If there is real unpolluted water for irrigation, even if it takes several hours to pull by train, it is much stronger than before!
Ling Zhe spoke Yi Chen's heart. However, Ling Zhetian is not afraid of the earth, and often puts the words "how bold people are, how productive the land is", he thinks more about the whole process, and Yi Chen, as the leader of the alliance, has to think about the results after the action.
If you want to occupy the reservoir, it is not a trivial matter...... It's better to complete the task first.
When they first arrived at the reservoir, they naturally didn't know how to go. Yi Chen used the communication device in the helmet to try to contact Long Yan, but no one on the other end was connected. He tried Zhou Ying and Chang Qing again, and the situation was the same.
