Duan Qing: "I ......"

Xu Liang looked at the table below, poked his head out to estimate the speed of the giant termites outside, and interrupted her and said, "Those big ants outside are traveling too fast, they will crawl here in two minutes!" When the time comes, don't talk about the two of you, even I won't be able to run, so. ”

At this point, he looked around the passage, and finally found something good—a large iron rod.

"This thing can be used as a deadbolt."

Lao Xu gestured to Duan Qing with his eyes, and then closed the alloy door again. Finally, the deadbolt was put up.

"The simplest, the most practical."

Duan Qing knew that he was talking about the fact that the four high-tech locks she had installed on the door were broken.

"And then now." Xu Liang leaned back against the door and said, "We can analyze the following situation." Bloodstains, all kinds of parts scattered all over the place, and the end of the passage in sight...... Miss Duanqing, I want to ask, apart from you, does anyone else know the exact direction of the entrance gate of this passage? ”

Duan Qing also leaned against the wall of the passage, she covered her head: "Very few, it can be said that almost no one knows." ”

"The energy supply system of the Civilization Arena, that is, these power plants, was installed and debugged elsewhere before it was transported here. It's not built in place. There are few people involved. ”

"In order to control the area of the entire power plant cluster, transmission lines, heat control and other problems, the design is completely automated! Human manipulation is not considered at all. In other words, it can be fully automated and can be operated without human maintenance. Therefore, there is no living space left for people at all. In every sense of the word, there shouldn't be anyone here. What's more, there is a seal with a 4-layer combination lock...... Anyway, I can't think of anyone who could get in. ”

Xu Liang understood Duanqing's statement, but he didn't agree: "But now, someone has come in." ”

He pointed to the parts scattered on the ground and said, "Unless you tell me that this lock-opener is not human...... That's obviously impossible. ”

Duan Qing: "Let's talk about those blood stains." In fact, it was left behind by the automatic defense system, and the blood trail stretched from here to the deepest part of the passage. The automatic defense system I designed doesn't have the legendary stuff of laser gun particle cannons, but it's also quite intimidating. Originally, I was thinking about circumventing the problem of these automatic weapons after coming in, but I didn't think about it...... Instead, let this intruder who came in advance run out of mines! ”

Xu Liang: "But the purpose of this intruder is undoubtedly the same as ours!" It's also an arena of civilizations! ”

"So, we actually have several pieces of information now: this intruder, at least knows the importance of the arena of civilization; Moreover, he also has a fairly good ability to survive, although he bled out, he did not die, and even now he has gone to the very center; In the end, he must have a wealth of skills, at least the thief's lockpicking skills must have been brushed to the master level. ”

Duan Qing: "You're so right, I can't refute it." ”

Xu Liang shook his head: "Let's go." I want to hurry up to the center now, and I want to know what the Civilization Arena is like. ”

Duan Qing: "The straight-line distance is less than two kilometers. ”

Both looked in the direction of the depths of the passage at the same time, and there was no doubt that that this was the ultimate goal.

However, at this moment, there was a sudden crashing sound at the gate!

This was followed by an unpleasant grinding of teeth. It was as if something outside the door was rubbing steel with its teeth, harsh, jerky. Duan Han couldn't help but cover his ears on the side.

Xu Liang also frowned: "Big ant!" ”

Duanqing nodded: "Although this door is thick, I'm afraid it can't be stopped!" ”

At this moment, Xu Liang thought of something more serious: "And you forgot about the rabbit." If these ants can't open this door...... Do you remember when a rabbit bit through the glass? ”

Duan Qing nodded: "Remember." And it's likely that these mutated creatures are all in the same group! ”

Xu Liang: "Let's go, I hope that there is a solution to all this in the most central civilization arena!" ”

……

……

Twenty centimeters thick outside the metal gate.

A giant termite leader said to the communication organ, "Report! We've found a large energy gathering device! ”

"Yes, well, yes...... Covered in a large amount of black silt, it is very hidden and difficult to spot. But by following the trail of a human being, I found it. ”

"It's a huge place, and it's a very important measure for humanity, and it should even be much more important than the giant ships that have been discovered, such as the Art and the Ecology."

"Now it's blocked by a metal barrier, which is so hard that it's hard to cut our mouthparts, so we call for help."

"In addition, the humans we are tracking this time are very different from the humans captured before, and their comprehensive abilities in all aspects are far superior to others! Whether it's combat ability, adaptability, or anything else...... Suspected of being the 'absolute leader' of human civilization......"

"Our squad suggests...... A large number of troops were deployed to conduct an all-round search of the area...... Even attack! ”

……

……

Xu Liang and the three of them walked along the passage and walked inside.

In the passage, the lights are bright. Thinking that this is a power plant cluster itself, it is natural that it will not be stingy with this little energy for lighting.

Along the way, there was a lot of blood on the ground, and it was all fresh. Obviously, the intruder who broke in before didn't have time to explode the wound, and it was possible that he and Xu Liang only entered a short time in advance.

Xu Liang became more and more anxious, and ran faster and faster with the two girls.

The passage ahead turned a corner, and when it was estimated that the distance was about the same, the three of them suddenly stopped!

More than a kilometer is not far away.

They have reached the core.

The sight in front of them made them speechless for a long time, even Duanqing, who had seen the appearance of the Civilization Arena.

Questions about what and how big the Arena of Civilization is like...... Xu Liang remembered that he had asked Duan Qing. At that time, Duanqing's answer was: It's as big as a villa.

When Xu Liang heard this answer at that time, he felt quite strange. Because Duanqing did not use the analogy of a football field and a basketball court, nor did he directly say the area, but said a strange description, as big as a villa.

But now, he finally understood the origin of this description.

Because the arena of civilization is a villa.

It's no different from the kind of luxury villa on Baidu's picture.

The outside is fenced off, and inside is a large lawn, which is very neatly built, and in the middle of the lawn is a beautiful two-story villa with an attic on the roof.

At first glance, it looks like the picture on the advertisement for a villa in a real estate agency.

This is the Arena of Civilizations?

Let them go through a lot of hard work and solve countless problems to reach the place where it is such an ordinary villa?

However, villas though are very common. But there are still peculiarities, and it is precisely those unusualness that make several people stunned.

A thin layer of light covers the entire villa. It's like the legendary energy shield, or in layman's terms, a transparent wok-lid.

This is the first time Xu Liang has seen a creation with a "sense of science fiction" in such a long time. The mask is beautiful, and it's real!

It's something that's easy to remember, but it's shocking to see. Because light cannot stay in the air (), nor can it bend. We usually say that light masks are common, because whether it is anime, movies or pictures, light masks can be easily drawn, but in reality, it is extremely difficult to see light masks appear.

But now, the light shield is actually in front of you.

What shocked several people even more was the front of this light shield.

There was half a pig there.

To be exact, it is the back half of a pig, with a pig's butt, pig's hind legs, and a small tail with a curl, which is a bit cute.

The first half of the pig is gone.

The place where it disappeared was exactly where the light shield was.

It's as if the mask had cut the pig apart.

This pig only has the back half, which is where the butt is. As for the first half of the pig...... There is no millennium, the first half of which cannot be found anywhere, and it seems that only half of this pig is born. The cross-sectional area is smooth. But Xu Liang and the others smelled a strong aroma of pork in the air.

It smells so good.

Duan Qing: "Lao Xu, what do you think?" ”

Xu Liang didn't answer, and asked rhetorically: "This light shield should have existed for a long time, right?" In other words, you already knew about the existence of the mask, right? ”

Duanqing gritted her teeth and replied, "Yes." ”

Xu Liang: "Then I want to hear your opinion first?" ”

Duanqing was silent for a while: "Okay...... Obviously, this light shield is real, not any ordinary lighting light. It's real, and it's ...... The temperature is extremely high! This pig, I don't know what happened to this pig, it's possible that it was blind? Don't see this light shield? So it ran forward, ran, ran, and then, burned the front half of its body by the mask? ”

"So, we saw only the second half of the pig; We smell the aroma of pork in the air; Seeing this terrifying, it can easily kill people. ”

"That's how I think it......"

"I agree." Xu Liang said, "Then I may have to add: we all saw bloodstains all the way over, and the bloodstains stopped here, and the location of the stop was here in this pig, so can it be simply inferred...... The one who unlocked the door at the door of the passage just now is this pig? ”

Pig? Unlock?

When Duan Qing heard this, she felt uncomfortable.

But she couldn't say what was wrong with Xu Liang's inference.

Xu Liang guessed: "This is a very smart pig, it is not only intelligent, but also very outstanding, and even knows how to pick locks." And it's a high-tech lock that opens the kind of super alloy anti-theft metal door you set up! But it's such a pig, such a pig whose unlocking skills can even be compared to my Lao Xu, but he hit his head on this shield like a stupid pig and roasted the front half of himself. ”

"This should be the whole story of the story."

"So that's the problem." Xu Liang finally said, "Do you have anything to tell us about this shield?" ”

Duanqing digested what Xu Liang said before, this is indeed a very likely situation, and then she replied, "Yes." ”

She took a few steps forward and came to the shield.

"What is our goal? Go through this shield and get inside! ”

"And now the shield is in our way."

"The pig made its way for us, and it was burned to death."

"But we can't be burned in half like this pig! So, we need to get over it, so the question is, how do we get through this mask? ”

She walked up to her, and the closer she got to the light shield, the more she could feel a scorching heat rushing towards her face, as if she were close to a furnace. In front of Duanqing, there is a platform.

She couldn't help but say something, and pulled Xu Liang over.

Xu Liang looked at the small platform, which was bare and empty, only a groove. This groove is shaped like a bracelet. If you look closely, you can see that there are thirteen knots in the recess, and each knots have a very fine structure.

Looking at this thing, Xu Liang felt very familiar.

Duan Qing looked at him with a very deep eye: "I remember, you have the key, right?" ”
