This time I went to the large research institute, it was to take a rail car, and Miao Pu insisted on raising its speed to the limit, faster than a swooping roller coaster. From time to time, the iron wheels below rubbed brilliant sparks against the tracks, and the two people in the ride clung to the simple seats with both hands to avoid being thrown out. But even so, there were many exclamations along the way.

In the end, the two did fly.

Miao Pu's sudden braking directly scrapped the rail car, how could people still stay on it? If you are an ordinary person, if you take this kind of earthen plane, even if you don't fall to your death, you will definitely only have one breath left. But the two of them had active armor on their bodies, and they felt like they had been thrown onto the air mattress where the children were playing, and after a few bounces, they stood up without doing anything.

The vine without Xuan Ling is not very sharp, and when Miao Pu sees it again, it has been destroyed, and to be more specific, it has been sucked dry.

It's just that the energy of the vine plant is not so easy to absorb, and the two blue-blooded monsters are buried with them, and the thorn seeds grow rapidly in their bodies, stabbing their internal organs with thousands of holes, and after they die, their entire bodies become fertilizer, and the thorn seeds grow into hideous plants, with a wild posture.

Next, Miao Pu artificially created a landslide in the tunnel leading to the D passage.

The two entourages can be regarded as seeing how an awakened person of Miao Pu's level works again. The dead vines revived directly, and the vines were inserted into the tunnel wall like sharp swords, and then the tunnel collapsed with a bang like a tofu scum project.

Subsequently, the three of them went to pick up Kang Danian and them, and when they arrived at the landslide, Kang Danian and they had just arrived.

For Miao Pu to have this efficiency, Kang Danian is not surprised at all. The group turned back again and headed for the large research institute.

On the way, Jiang Shangqing told Miao Pu about the information he had obtained from the survivors.

According to the survivor, the expedition team fell into the trap of the monsters, and then it was a one-sided strangulation, which is probably the case.

Setting traps, setting up ambushes, and besieging and killing people in groups is not good news, and any behavior that shows teamwork and wisdom is not good news for everyone.

"It's not going to be much better if we go into the pit now, especially in this position." After arriving at the original T-junction and the current L-junction, the team did not rush forward, but began to study the structural diagram of the large research institute.

At the heart of the institute is a vertical axis, around which all functional facilities are located, including the main corridor in which they are now located.

The expedition team was ambushed in the vertical axis area, which was well connected, which also meant that monsters could appear from all directions and attack.

Of course, the advantage of completely occupying the vertical shaft area is obvious, and the independent structure of the cabinet allows each unit to be locked.

Lockable means isolated, it means cleared one by one.

The end result of the study was that the operation was no different from the expedition team's choice in terms of route, and the vertical axis area had to be visited, and it was the first stop.

The only thing to be strengthened is the details of the operation. No one will ignore the ventilation duct, but the other will be, the line duct. The pipelines of this large research institute are completely companions to the various functional departments, and there are no areas that they do not reach, although they are theoretically isolated, but they are only theoretical.

Beyond the triple gate, you will find the platform of a large research institute.

The size of the platform is about the total area of the two platforms of the agricultural reclamation station and the material dispatch center combined. There are stacks of items and parking rail cars, and it will take a lot of time to check them thoroughly, but the premise is that there is no cow like Miao Pu.

Miao Pu has a strong mental power sensing range, although this ability is not enough for those blue-blooded monsters with near-perfect stealth ability, but Miao Pu also has assistants, vine plants controlled by Xuan Ling, and their shape determines that they can become more detailed search and capture experts.

Soon, a thorough investigation was completed, and the entire platform area was free of monsters, up to the ventilation ducts and down to the line pipes.

However, Miao Pu didn't feel very good, and the alarm of his danger instinct was always ringing, which made him very depressed.

Miao Pu stopped and said, "Bu Ji is arrogant and frivolous, but he is not necessarily a fool. More importantly, such people should cherish their lives. It is difficult for people who cherish their lives to make rash mistakes, let alone be reminded by others. To sum up, I actually just want to say that there is a trick behind this seemingly simple trap that has not been exposed until now. ”

Kang Danian and Jiang Shangqing looked at each other when they listened, and then Jiang Shangqing asked, "Then what do you think we should do?" According to the normal procedure, the first thing we need to do is naturally restore the power. Only when the power of the institute is restored, can the equipment be operated and the control of the gate can be realized. ”

"That's right, but if you play the cards according to this number of roads, I'm worried that you will fall into the pit." Miao Pu said with a flip of his wrist and directly slapped a ball of life energy on his rattan armor.

Its rattan armor is definitely multifunctional, and in addition to protection, it can also be a breeding ground for any kind of plant element that he masters.

With his beat, vines grow, blossom and bear fruit, and when the spherical fruits ripen and emit the white light of fluorescent tubes. Miao Pu took off these curved lamp heads, as if throwing them casually, and they were thrown accurately into various positions, and the slight thorns at the end allowed them to be embedded in the wall without falling off.

It took two or three minutes before and after, and the whole platform was illuminated.

"They can last at least 72 hours of illumination."

Qian Lihang took off the night vision goggles and exclaimed: "I like this feeling of brightness." ”

This is also the voice of others, human beings are not dark creatures, on the contrary, darkness is often confused with the unknown, and people are afraid, with the light of the platform, people standing in this area have a feeling of courage and climbing.

Miao Pu said: "Lighting is not the most critical, the most critical thing is that we have to do what we say about this kind of thing." ”

Soon, the inter-region interface of the line pipe was found.

"Disconnect."

If you have a professional specialty, completely disconnect the cable that is engaged by the dedicated interface and rewind it backwards.

After that, Miao Pu blocked it with a tyranny. This time it was not a hasty arrangement like the previous T-shaped passage, just at the entrance of the platform passage, with the corpses of the vine plants at the entrance of the previous passage, Miao Pu gave birth to the Heart of Thorns (it is more energy-efficient to promote the growth of plant corpses).

Kang Danian and the others had experienced Miao Pu's birth and control of the vine monster before, but they didn't think it was the same, but the deputy squad and the members of the scientific expedition team saw it for the first time, and they were all amazed.

Miao Pu's strength has opened a significant gap with ordinary awakened people, if ordinary awakened people are like those teenagers with abilities in the school run by Professor X in "X-Men", they can only play some tricks between abilities and tricks, Miao Pu is the piano of the dark phoenix state? Gray, the difference between them is no longer reflected in the number of abilities, but what kind of process can be achieved and what kind of goal can be achieved.

When the Heart of Thorns was born, it really had the effect of a superpower, the thick vines like the magical pea stalks in fairy tales, completely contrary to common sense, and as if giving birth to wisdom to make some extraordinary ties, and finally formed a huge, paper-wrapped fruit candy-like strange plant.

The top and bottom of the plant spread out in all directions like an umbrella bone, and soon a network of vines was woven on the ceiling and ground, and connected with the vines of the line pipes.

Subsequently, Miao Pu carried out a similar treatment in the ventilation duct, and then he clapped his hands and said: "From now on, this area can be regarded as our control area, and it is impossible for any monster to sneak in without being discovered by us." ”

After appreciating the magic of Miao Pu's ability, the morale of the people who heard this was boosted. The layout in front of you is like a back-to-back support. There is a way out and a stable rear, which is definitely more conducive to the play of personal strength.

Next is the comprehensive inspection channel.

It is said to be a passage, but in fact, there are many rooms on both sides, which is an area that includes functions such as security check and biochemical detection, so as to ensure that people entering and exiting are clean.

Compared with the platform, there are more dead corners in this area for monsters to hide, even if Miao Pu directly closed the main interface between the areas at the beginning, it still took more than half an hour to clean up the rooms.

Then, another area shone brightly, cut into a safe and secure area, and everyone had a more or less sense of accomplishment, although this achievement had little to do with them.

Only the squad deputy and the soldier were more concerned about the safety of their teammates, fantasizing that there were still brothers alive somewhere, waiting for rescue.

Xue Ming saw the anxiety of the two of them, and persuaded: "Look here, what did you two find?" ”

The two looked at each other, and then the squad deputy shook his head: "Didn't you find anything?" ”

"That's right! Nothing was found, no bodies, no blood, no bullet casings, not even new traces. Do you think it's weird? Anyway, I think it's weird, my heart is hairy, I hate to be yin, and I hate to be yin because I made obvious mistakes, especially when someone has proved the price of making mistakes with their lives, but they still hang up because of the same kind of mistake, do you understand what I mean? ”

“……”

"Everyone understands, it's not that we don't want to be fast, it's because any negligence may repeat the mistakes of the past, and saving people requires us to survive first."

Xue Ming patted the squad deputy on the shoulder, "They all want to save people, in this kind of ghost place, every time there is one more of the same kind, you can have a sense of security." But the premise is that we must first try to ensure that we do not lose people. ”

After passing the comprehensive inspection area, the passage is still in a straight line.

This area is called the reception area, and outsiders, and even foreign goods, are stuck in this area. This is a secret research institute, it is impossible to have a luxurious reception facility, the room is opened more like an ascetic's residence, a bed, a simple desk, a chair, a washroom with only a sink, a flush toilet and a shower, this is what the room is all about, all rooms are this standard, the left and right corridors are door to door, a total of 20 rooms.

In addition, there are some facilities, such as a small meeting room, a small bathhouse, a laundry room, a restaurant, a convenience store, a small garden, a tool room, and a storage room...... The total usable area is more than 10,000 square meters, and it also takes a lot of time to clean up.

And more importantly, this area brought Miao Pu's attention to a new access pathway, the sewage treatment system.

Eating, drinking, and excreting, the probability of a monster coming out of the flush toilet may not be large, but a large amount of excrement always has to be classified into a large channel, and then lead to a special treatment facility, such a large channel, is definitely enough for monsters to lurk.

"Including the first two areas, there are such facilities, which means that there are special pipes, but in the three-dimensional drawing, they are not shown."

Regarding Miao Pu's problem, Kang Danian gave an explanation: "There is indeed such a sewage system, in fact, there is also a water purification system, both of which are completely independent of the facilities. In other words, each cabinet unit does not have access ports for water purification and sewage, and if you want to enter, you have to go through a special area."

Miao Pu took over and said: "However, these two systems are connected to every room that uses them, in order to facilitate maintenance, its backbone must be extended in all directions, in such a deep underground area, it can not afford to dig walls and pipes because of water leakage or something, and build a lot of civil engineering, and 1." A 2-meter-thick layer of earth is no more difficult for monsters than it is to break through a wall of planks, as long as they want to. ”

Jiang Shangqing said: "There is indeed such a possibility. But then there's too much to watch out for. So far, we have not found any places where the water and sewage connections have been damaged. ”

"You can't ignore it just because you don't have it, it's definitely a safety hazard."

Jiang Shangqing opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything more after all. In fact, in his opinion, there is no time when you don't take risks when you do this. It is true to guarantee the way back and protect the rear, but there must be a degree to do anything. Is it safe to take the direction of the passage seriously? What about being cleaned up? The platforms of the agricultural reclamation station and the material deployment center are all T-shaped intersections, and the three gates are foolproof?

They can't get in touch with the two sides here, and even if the two platforms are breached by the monsters, there's no way to know, isn't that dangerous?

If everything is taken care of, you are stable, and the enemy is safely arranged. It's more about time, what is this area? Arriving at the vertical axis area is the beginning.

Up and down, just like the floors, each floor expands a main corridor and functional departments with the vertical axis area as the core. The usable area of the entire research institute alone exceeds 200,000 square meters, and the name of the large-scale research institute is not called in vain. And according to Miao Pu's approach, when will it take to get a large-scale research institute?

And this is just the outer ring D area of the underground ruins, and there are three areas A, B, and C of similar scale, and then there is a larger ruins radiation expansion area and a ruins core area that is larger than the Summer Palace. It's unrealistic to say otherwise, no matter how awesome Miao Pu's ability is, it is impossible to rely on such a thorny heart to spread the tentacles of the vines throughout the entire underground area, not to mention the entire one, it is even difficult to one-tenth of it, Jiang Shangqing even doubts that there is a way to radiate the entire large research institute.

However, Jiang Shangqing was reluctant to directly argue with Miao Pu, and he pondered that after a while, Miao Pu himself should also realize his mistake.

Isn't there a saying, if you don't have fresh meat to feed, don't tame a lion with a leather whip? Now the imbalance between the two sides' combat power is very great, and they absolutely have to ask Miao Pu, and they can't provide anything for Miao Pu, basically relying on their own consciousness and will, they will take action step by step to the point where they are now.

In fact, Miao Pu naturally knew that his step-by-step strategy had no possibility of continuous use, not to mention anything else, the long-term consumption of the Heart of Thorns alone was not something he could afford now. There's no ability for the Heart of Thorns to breathe in, it's all up to him, and his ability is capped to a tanker, and without a cycle, it's unsustainable.

All the qiē is to force the other person to react. He always believed that there was a behind-the-scenes manipulator here, and the reason was not only because he had met [None] and knew that there were members of the Aragami here.

There is no special water purification and sewage maintenance entrance, so it is artificially created one, and it is not very difficult to destroy this kind of thing anyway.

Two completely different systems, the same thing is that they both have surprises.

Although it has been a long time since fresh sewage and excrement have been injected into the system, there is no greasy filth and stench in it, and even most of the sections are dry, but the monsters hiding here still leave a deep impression on people.

A group of people who once hid in the filth in order to survive failed to wait for rescue, but waited for a mutation, so they became the current monsters.

Their facial appearance is easily reminiscent of deep-sea fish, large enough, but like cataract eyes, which are basically degenerate. There were only two thin holes left in the nose, lips and surroundings that bulged forward more than those of a monkey, and of course sparse but sharp teeth.

Their skin reflects a waxy glow in the light, but the skin is not taut, but full of wrinkles, and with their emaciated form, it looks like a skeleton wearing a borrowed wax coat.

Like most annoyed monsters, these monsters immediately pounced on them when they realized that they had been discovered, and the tubular passage with a diameter of 2 meters was used very well by them, at least it was impossible for humans to keep three people in such a narrow space without affecting each other's speed. But they do, and their claws and toes are similar to the shape of a frog's toes, but they have the ability of geckos to adsorb.

Another trait similar to that of frogs is that their main means of attack is their tongue. Not only do the tongues of these monsters shoot at an extremely fast rate, but what is even more peculiar is that their tongues can be forked and connected to each other by mucous membranes.
