Chapter 556: Wonders Underground
The D passage was used by Shen Xin and Luke's rescue team 1 when they came.
This time, the female major brought the passage setting key, which can be reopened from the inside to the outside without being absolutely locked. Thereafter, that passage will be the main gateway to access.
said that it was a station, but after entering the platform, Miao Pu found that what was waiting for everyone was not a tram like in the game "Resident Evil", but a somewhat strange large rail freight elevator.
The elevator track slopes down at an angle of about 45 degrees, and when the tunnel's three gates slowly open, people who enter for the first time feel like they are on a journey to the netherworld.
The reason why Miao Pu felt bad was naturally the escalation of the alarm of dangerous intuition. Now he had figured out that the danger was coming from the depths of the windy tunnel.
Those who have not experienced it first-hand cannot imagine the shock of a tunnel with a slope of more than 1 kilometer at an angle of 45 degrees.
Miao Pu thought to himself: "No wonder the 5 passages are owned by various factions, just the investment in this tunnel, I'm afraid that a few skyscrapers can be built."
After the arrival of the goods elevator, Miao Pu roughly calculated that the vertical distance from the surface should not be less than 1,200 meters.
Theoretically, the temperature is already extremely high at such a depth, but the temperature here is 5 degrees Celsius, but now no one pays attention to this detail, and people are shocked by the scenery in front of them.
"How...... How so! Qian Lihang's eyes were wide open, and his mouth was almost subconscious.
A forest that grows underground, the color of sapphire blue, can not be seen at a glance, there is a wind blowing, and the forest sea is rustling.
Containing this magnificent forest is a huge dome, which is more than 100 meters high, and the dome has glowing stones, and when you look up, you can see the stars in your vision, just like the scene you see when you stand on the top of the mountain and look up at the sky on a clear night.
Crucially, neither the starry dome nor the sapphire blue forest were meant to be, or more precisely, they were very different from what was mentioned in the previous information of the operation.
Kang Danian had already been here once before, so he was relatively calm, and he was methodically assigning tasks.
Shen Xin and Luke serve as guides, while Miao Pu serves as the chief guard of the two, as well as the eyes of the entire group.
The female major did not follow the operation, she and the soldiers who needed to recuperate, as well as several guards, stayed at the underground station, ensuring that the underground station was used as a backup terminal, and it was also her job to maintain communication with Dongyuan Town and the new rescue team.
However, Miao Pu felt that the latter goal was probably impossible to achieve.
As soon as he entered this vault, he gave birth to an induction, and the energy here, including heat, was ingested so much that it could not be used normally without wired communication.
Sure enough, Zhou Shuai reported that communication could not be used.
This situation was expected by Kang Danian, and the top of the tunnel had cables, including communications, and all the rescue team had to do was to replace the communication equipment at this end and provide it with a new energy connection, so that communication with the underground station could be restored.
There are full-time personnel to do this, and Miao Pu took advantage of his free time to ask Shen Xin and Luke about the approximate route to the entrance of the other passage.
"The ruins are roughly divided into three areas, the core area, the radiation area, and the outer ring." Compared with the silent Luke, Shen Xin is obviously more sociable, and her style is bright, not a chicken woman. She explained: "The area involved in our operation is only the outer ring ......"
Hearing this, Miao Pu glanced at the scenery in the vault, and said in his heart: "The outer ring, that is, what you see in front of you, is all man-made products. As the source of source, it is understandable that there has been a huge change here. ”
Ready-made parts were replaced, and the communication system took more than ten minutes to repair.
The elevator is taken away, the gates are closed, and the line is pulled.
The span of the vault is about 1. 5 kilometers, full of trees, tall and straight, leafy, and the road walked by a group of people straight through this jungle.
The starry glowing stones do not provide enough illumination, the roads are pitch black, and even with night vision devices, the viewing area is very limited.
Fortunately, the team was not moving fast, and the road was only straight, and there were three awakened people such as Miao Pu to take the lead.
Miao Pu soon noticed that unlike him who paid attention to the plants on both sides of the road, Shen Xin and Luke both paid attention to the street stones, and they had a tacit understanding that one person was in charge of one side, but as for the strange and secluded plant jungle, they didn't even look at it.
He also found that the street stones were like street trees, one at regular intervals, and the spacing was unusually accurate. It is made of bluestone, cylindrical in shape, and the outside is carved with abstract patterns...... It was easy for him to think of the purifier in the lounge.
"Could it be ......" Miao Pu had some guesses in his heart.
A few meters behind the three of them, the main body of the rescue team, Kang Danian and Jiang Shangqing, one head and one tail, restrained the behavior of the soldiers: try to walk in the middle, don't touch those street stones, and don't cross the line.
Along the way, people were a little apprehensive, but they didn't actually encounter anything out of the ordinary.
When the end of the jungle loomed, Miao Pu saw another dome, the one connected to the jungle dome was obviously much smaller, and the traces of artificial carving were heavier, including the top.
About 2 minutes later, Luke and Shen Xin also saw the end of the jungle one after another, the two of them suddenly couldn't hold back, obviously quickened their pace, and after leaving the jungle area, their expressions showed an obvious look of relief, as if they had just walked a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, and they had been struggling to endure it.
Miao Pu knew what they were afraid of, yes, it was this jungle. More deeply, this exotic plant.
He had made a mistake before, he thought that the core of the purifier's energy absorption and the amazing ability to energize and absorb matter was the technology from the source civilization.
This is wrong, it is actually the earth-drummed vine-like plant that can do this, the technological product of the source civilization, and it is only responsible for regulation.
This jungle has the same characteristics as the earth drum vine, and the path stones form an invisible arched corridor, and if you accidentally leave this corridor, people will be sucked dry in an instant, even if they are awakened.
In addition, Miao Pu discovered that there were other creatures in this jungle.
Due to the particularity of the environment, his perception can only be confined to the protection of the street stone, but the danger intuition has no territory. It was the change in his instinct of danger that made him know that there were some strong and ill-intentioned creatures in the jungle watching and following them as they walked, but he didn't know if it was this kind of creature that Luke and Shen Xin were afraid of.
There are some rooms in the small dome, which look a bit like the barracks area of the Snake Sect Yang Valley Underground Base, but the scale is much smaller, and the facilities are simpler.
Tong guò before the exchange, Miao Pu already knew, this is a farming station.
It took less than five minutes for Miao Pu to walk around the periphery of the small square in the center of the station, and then he told him that there were no living creatures here except them.
Kang Danian naturally trusted Miao Pu's ability very much now, and as soon as he beckoned, the soldiers immediately started to act in groups of two.
The station's compartment design played an important role, and after 15 minutes, the power was restored and the closure was subsequently completed, and the first phase of the operation was completed without any danger.
Taking advantage of the team's short rest, Miao Pu followed Kang Danian to go through the details of the agricultural reclamation station.
There were no corpses, no bloodstains, no signs of fighting, and it was slightly messy......
Based on various observations, it is speculated that this place has only experienced a devastation of personnel fleeing after the occurrence of the source, and after that, it seems to have been vacant and abandoned, and has not been patronized.
The two returned to the temporary command room, the communication equipment had been activated, and Jiang Shangqing was reporting the situation to Dongyuan Town.
With the special line, video signal transmission is also possible. Although the above-ground area is more severely disturbed, Dongyuan Town still has a general understanding of the new changes in the agricultural reclamation area.
Compared with the worries caused by the dangers brought about by the new changes, the heads and brains in Dongyuan Town were more excited. This point, even Miao Pu, who had just come back, felt it.
"I'm sorry, sir. Our strongest combat force is extremely tired from continuous battles, and there are injuries in the body, and there is no way to complete the mission. Regarding the order to send a new action team, including 10 scientific researchers, to come and ask Miao Pu to answer by name, Jiang Shangqing refused with a stern face.
The other party was obviously unhappy, and the topic changed sharply, and the harshly worded request that the rescue team must restore the function of the channel used by the first rescue team before dawn.
After ending this communication, Jiang Shangqing said to Miao Pu apologetically: "It is often like this, when the rear cannot accurately judge the state of the front-line officers and soldiers......
Miao Pu smiled and expressed understanding. Obviously, the problem is not what Jiang Shangqing said, he saw the value of the agricultural reclamation area after the change, so he wanted to grasp it in his hands as soon as possible and start the value grabbing work.
Of course, Jiang Shangqing didn't obey his orders, so he didn't have to expose the truth.
Even if this matter has been exposed, it will only leave some bad impressions in Miao Pu's heart.
After a brief rest, the rescue team set off again.
At the end of the small dome is another moon, this time I finally have the feeling of riding a rail car, but it is a minecart level, there is no canopy, and it is very easy to make, and because of the power failure, I can only use the rickshaw head.
It's really a very simple and classic pressure-lifting lever front end, which can be driven by a single person or a double person.
The lighting system of the tunnel could not work, even if a high-power flashlight was temporarily installed in front of the front of the car, the lighting range of more than 20 meters still gave people the feeling of nothingness.
Miao Pu stood at the front of the car, frowning, he didn't feel the ability. In this environment, there should be extremely strong yin power, but now there is no such thing. This means that he has thought things simple again. It's not just the mutated jungle of the underground farming station.
Not far behind Miao Pu, Shen Xin and Luke both pursed their lips, their expressions were stern and slightly nervous, they had walked this road, and they knew what they might encounter on this road.
"What can you encounter? Nothing more than monsters! Until now, Luke's expression and tone when he said this still often appeared in his mind, mocking his arrogance with absolute irony.
Looking at Miao Pu's straight back, Shen Xin was in a different mood. To be honest, she hated Miao Pu a little, hated Miao Pu's strength and strength, especially the latter.
Miao Pu's kind of strength is, in her opinion, the most incomprehensible one, and the kind of strength achieved by attitude and position is not comparable to it at all.
Miao Pu's strength comes from his overly prominent contributions, exaggeration, just like one person can save the world, and it is debatable whether the other people who act with him can be counted as the stars of the upper arch moon.
Such a person unconsciously influences everyone, making people instinctively pay attention to their choices and consider them carefully. Like this time, she originally meant to walk past, but Miao Pu silently occupied the front position of the front of the car, so naturally, people got on the car one after another, and the front of the rickshaw was also driven over to pick it up, and then there was the current scene.
The cold wind is swishing, and the temperature in the tunnel is not only low, but the air is fresh, and the surface is nothing more than that, not to mention that there is no man-made pollution here.
This kind of abnormality Kang Danian and Jiang Shangqing both discovered, although Kang Danian said that he was eager to save people and was not afraid of sacrifice, he was always very careful when acting in specific actions. He stepped forward and kindly reminded Miao Pu of this situation, and finally added: "Look, is this weird?" ”
Miao Pu said calmly: "The walls, top walls, and ground along the way are all occupied by a moss-like plant, which is very competent as a thermal insulation layer and oxygen generator. ”
Miao Pu didn't deliberately lower his voice, and Luke behind him also heard it, and he immediately retorted: "Moss? It can't be, it can't be seen at all, and it can't be felt. ”
"I'm talking about mosse-like mosses, defined by the way they are stored, and they themselves are much finer, fluffy, and translucent than ordinary mosses. Also, don't put too much faith in your ability sensing, you're close to earth-based abilities, but there's always something more friendly than you. ”
As he spoke, Miao Pu raised his hand and flicked his fingers, and a new green light was shot by him onto the tunnel wall. In the diffuse light, there was a faint beard-like crazy growth, even with the eyes of Shen Xin and Luke, what they saw was only a fluctuating shadow like a heat wave transpiring, but this was obviously enough to prove Miao Pu's words.
Fear is mostly caused by the unknown, and now that Miao Pu is such a great god, and he has a lot of confidence in his chest, everyone in the rescue team seems to be a lot calmer, at least the officers and soldiers except Shen Xin and Luke are like this.
After walking for about another distance, Miao Pu suddenly said, "Brake." ”
The wording was not harsh, and the driver naturally did not pull the brakes, and it was only after more than ten meters that Luke and Shen Xin realized that the area ahead was the area they had fought and destroyed before.
When the rail car slowly stopped, the road ahead was already broken, and the entire tunnel was basically blocked by earth and rock, which was similar to a landslide.
Miao Pu turned his head and glanced at Luke, carrying the soil and rocks, naturally Luke, who mastered the ability of the soil system.
Luke smiled bitterly, this collapse is indeed his handiwork, but it is always easier to destroy, and now let him dig alone, but he doesn't have that ability.
He told him about the situation, and Kang Danian was also helpless, so he could only organize people to dig it up.
Shen Xin reminded to pay attention to the danger, this soil and stone is not tamped, there may be gaps and monsters.
Luke, as the main force, concreted into blocks, and the soldiers carried and dredged it, and it took an hour to clear a roadway less than 10 meters long that could only be used by one person.
Kang Danian was about to summon the soldiers to stop work and rest, but Miao Pu, who had been standing idly with his arms near the entrance of the passage, suddenly made a move.
Silk vine ****, immediately entangled the three soldiers in the passage, pulled back, the three of them were directly pulled and fell out, and close to the entrance of the passage responsible for passing the earth and stone is Qian Lihang, more clever, as soon as he saw Miao Pu move, he immediately flew out.
That is, the front and rear feet, the side walls of the simple passage cracked, and several glowing tentacles broke through the earth, dancing like whips, and the clods of earth that had been frozen by Luke before were crushed by pumps.
"All backwards!" Miao Pu shouted in a deep voice.
The officers and men, including Kang Danian, quickly retreated, and at the same time held their guns in their hands.
The few people who were pulled out before the monster attack were not slow, but their postures were not very elegant, and they even rolled and crawled.
Shen Xin and Luke also did not have the demeanor of the Awakened at all, and withdrew with the soldiers.
Miao Pu took out the 92-style change from the side of his leg, raised his hand to shoot it, and put away the gun in the next second.
The bullet is not a big threat to this kind of monster, Tong Guò senses Miao Pu has found that most of the kinetic energy of the bullet is absorbed by the tentacles, and the rest is scattered in the air, and the warhead after losing the kinetic energy is powerless to cause effective damage to the monster's tough body.
His Type 92 modification is slightly inferior to the AK, and the guns they use are more powerful than the AK, but they are also very limited.
At this time, the monster had already rushed into the improvised passage, and it rushed out along the exit if it missed a hit, and Miao Pu directly met it.
Whew! The monster's tentacles were cut off a lot, scattered all over the ground, and its torso was also cut off with a single sword, and the corpse twitched in glowing blue blood.
The monster was solved neatly, but Miao Pu was not happy, and any monster had to let him use a saber comparable to the source device. What's even more troublesome is that the environment here is very unfriendly to the awakened, and the energy lost can only be provided by his body, and it is impossible to achieve the normal energy intake.
Miao Pu raised his right arm, which meant that the alarm was lifted, Kang Danian and the others surrounded him, and after seeing the true face of the monster clearly, one or two looked weird.
It was a lean man, deformed to a wolf-like form, and covered with tentacles from the back of the head to the back to the buttocks, almost like this kind of monster.
First of all, it can be roughly determined that it was once a person, in this underground world, even if it is only an outer ring, there is only one type of person, the target of rescue.
The alienation of the researcher into a monster is definitely one of the last things the rescue team wants.
Qian Lihang put the assault rifle behind his back, took out his Colt python and shot at the corpse, and after seeing the effect, he snorted: "Who said that the environment of the ruins is more suitable for ordinary people to fight?" Why can't I see it at all? ”
When Qian Lihang shot, Kang Danian and Jiang Shangqing also saw clearly, the monster's body was not yet dead, and it still had a strong ability to absorb energy, and its operation characteristics were: first turn the point into a surface, the bullet hit, and a circle of light like asbestos annealing spread on its skin, and then, in the process of diffusion, it was completely absorbed.
In other words, unless the attack on it is strong enough to break through the limit of energy absorption per unit of time, this monster can be said to be nearly invincible.
Shortly after this, the collapse was opened using the gap that the monster had previously contained. , the warhead after losing kinetic energy is powerless to deal effective damage to the monster's tough body.
His Type 92 modification is slightly inferior to the AK, and the guns they use are more powerful than the AK, but they are also very limited.
