Chapter 52: A Strange Hospital!
The central control base is the most heavily defended place in the entire city, and it is also the last fortress of the entire city.
In order to survive long enough to survive the hordes of corpses or beasts, this last bastion is almost a city within a city. Hospitals, warehouses, arsenals, research centers, and other important institutions are almost all built on this base.
And the area of this base is actually far from being as small as Chu Xun and the others saw outside. Because this base building is only a small part of the entire base, the main building of the base is actually located deep underground, which can be said to be a huge underground city.
"The control center of Dead City Seven adopted the most popular and practical honeycomb design at that time." After a rest, Yang Ling pressed his watch again, projected a holographic architectural design in front of Chu Xun and the others, and then said with a serious expression: "However, because the No. 7 Dead City collapsed so suddenly, there was not even a single living mouth, so I tried my best to only get the original initial design drawing, and I don't know the specific situation in the base." ”
"What a big ......" Looking at this giant dungeon that went straight into the ground for hundreds of meters and covered an area of nearly 100 square kilometers, Chu Xun couldn't help but let out an exclamation.
But soon, Chu Xun reacted, then turned his head to look at Yang Ling, and asked with a somewhat solemn face: "Yang Ling, this base is so big, if there is no exact location, then we have to find when to go?" ”
"Although the underground space of the base is large, the pattern has not changed. Moreover, the location of the material warehouse needs to meet the three conditions of ventilation, large area, and convenient transportation, so we only need to analyze it carefully, and it is not difficult to find out the location of the material warehouse. Yang Ling smiled slightly, then pressed his watch a few more times, and then three bright spots flashed on the holographic map.
"There are only three places in the entire underground base that meet these three conditions, so I'm sure that one of these three places is definitely a material warehouse." Yang Ling glanced at his watch, and then said with a somewhat solemn expression: "Originally, according to the original plan, the safest way was for us to act together, and then screen these three places one by one. But the plan can never catch up with the change, and it seems that we can only divide our troops into three ways and act separately. ”
"The soldiers are divided into three ways?" Hearing Yang Ling's words, Vincent frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Although it is common sense that there should be no danger in this base, it is still not good to divide the troops into three ways, right?" Now that the gate is locked and the tyrant can't get in, we don't need to rush so much, right? ”
"If we don't hurry, we're afraid we won't be able to get out." Yang Ling smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "Maybe because of the impact of the big explosion back then, the nuclear energy facilities in this base have been damaged and leaked, and there is not much energy left. If we don't leave before we run out of energy, we may never get out. ”
"Nuclear leakage?" Hearing Yang Ling's words, the faces of everyone present became extremely ugly.
Although after so many years of development, nuclear energy facilities have been gradually phased out, but no one can deny the power of nuclear energy and the horror of nuclear leakage.
You must know that at the beginning of the cataclysm, human beings tried to save the situation with nuclear weapons, but unfortunately, the use of nuclear weapons proved to be extremely stupid, because not only did it not completely eliminate those zombies, but also made some zombies mutate and become more terrifying.
In addition to zombies, mutated creatures will also mutate twice due to nuclear radiation, which will become more terrifying. Therefore, when Chu Xun and the others heard the words nuclear energy leakage, they couldn't help but feel a trace of fear and shock in their hearts.
"Rest assured, this leak is small-scale and shouldn't be enough to cause biological mutations, and it won't have much impact on us Abilities. As long as we don't get close to the center of the leak, then we won't be in any danger. Looking at the ugly expressions of Vincent and the others, Yang Ling shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity that the nuclear radiation has had a serious impact on the electronic equipment inside the base, not only making it impossible for me to hack into the central controller, but even the detection equipment I made myself cannot be used. Otherwise, we wouldn't have to take such risks. ”
"Wealth is in danger, is it necessary to be timid at such a time?" Hearing Yang Ling's words, Chu Hang, who had already recovered a lot of physical strength, lazy and shouted: "I don't want to go back empty-handed, how about it, let's just follow what Yang Ling said and divide the troops." ”
"I'm okay with that!" Chu Xun shrugged his shoulders, he had the help of the alien, and his own strength was not weak, so naturally there was nothing to fear.
"Okay!" Seeing that Chu Hang and Chu Xun had no opinions, Vincent also nodded, and then said in a deep voice: "Since this is the case, then let's just divide it like this." Chu Xun, you and your pet all the way. Chu Hang, your ability to protect yourself is extremely strong, and your concealment ability is also very strong, so you just go all the way alone. ”
Speaking of this, Vincent looked at Yang Ling again and said, "As for Yang Ling, you can follow me all the way, my ability defense is strong, and now you are affected by the environment, and your ability has been weakened a lot, and you will be safer with me." ”
"No problem!" Hearing Vincent's words, everyone present looked at each other, and then nodded.
"In that case, let's take action. Remember, whether we find the warehouse or not, we'll have to meet here in 45 minutes! Seeing that everyone had no objections, Yang Ling also nodded, and then said with a serious expression: "Everyone must keep this point in mind, because after an hour, the remaining energy of this base will be exhausted, and the self-destruction procedure of the base will also be activated at that time." If you don't leave, prepare to be buried with this dead city and make a sea of fire! ”
"Got it!" Hearing Yang Ling's words, everyone's expressions became more serious, and then they stopped being verbose, and turned around and rushed towards the position they were responsible for.
"Damn, this ruin hunter is really not good!" While moving forward at full speed with the alien, Chu Xun sighed in his heart.
While the Ruin Hunter can reap great rewards from every adventure, the risks are also enormous. It seems that this time, whether it is the tyrant elite or the city that is about to explode, people feel a huge pressure that the shadow of death is shadowing everywhere, making people always vigilant and dare not relax.
The area of the control base is large, with a lot of roads and rooms, like a small city. And the location of the exploration that Chu Xun was in charge of was a huge building located to the west of the base.
The building occupies a large area, and is located on the main road west of the base, with convenient transportation and convenient access, coupled with the characteristics of ventilation, it is indeed one of the most suitable places for material storage.
Along the way, Chu Xun didn't encounter any enemies, not even the slightest corpse, only occasionally he could see some dried blood stains on the ground. There was also a dead silence around, and there was no movement, as if there was no danger.
However, the more this was the case, the more nervous Chu Xun's heart became.
The dried blood on the ground is not deceiving, there must have been battles and even deaths here. But where have all the bodies gone?
It is impossible for zombies to eat corpses so cleanly, could it be that the survivors who fled into the control base in the first place cleaned up these corpses?
If so, then why didn't any of these survivors make it out in the end, and where did they go?
One mystery after another made Chu Xun feel a little uneasy in his heart, as if something dangerous was hiding in the shadows and watching him.
At the same time, the xenomorph seemed to sense some danger and began to roar under his breath. It's just that even with the alien's perception of danger, he didn't find any trace of the enemy, so in the end, Chu Xun could only choose to move on.
Hopefully, I'm too nervous.
Chu Xun comforted himself in his heart, and at the same time cheered up his spirit and moved forward carefully. Since he didn't encounter any enemy to stop him, it only took Chu Xun less than ten minutes to reach his destination.
However, when he saw the appearance of the building at his destination and the red cross painted on the outside of the building's door, he felt a sense of disappointment.
This is not a warehouse of supplies, but a hospital!
"Now go back and make peace with them, or go in and have a look?" Looking at the slightly open steel gate of the hospital, Chu Xun hesitated a little.
As a gathering place hospital, there must be a lot of materials in this hospital that he can use, and even special drugs such as genetic enhancement drugs and genetic modification drugs may appear. These are extremely valuable things, the former can strengthen the user's body, and the latter can modify the user's genes in the same way that his worm ability can give them special powers.
If you can get these things, then Chu Xun can definitely make a lot of money!
"Anyway, it's still so long, so it doesn't hurt to go and see it." After hesitating for a while, Chu Xun still decided to take a look.
Because in his opinion, there is generally no danger in a place like a hospital, and even if he encounters an enemy, he is confident that he can escape with his whole body.
Besides, isn't his purpose this time to sharpen himself, so why should he be timid?
However, when Chu Xun opened the door of the hospital and walked into the hospital, he suddenly noticed something wrong in his heart.
After coming to this world, he was extremely cautious in his way of dealing with people, but why did he suddenly have such a strong interest in his heart this time, and even let him break into a place that he would not have broken into so recklessly?
Is it just because of the money?
Seems a little wrong!
"Crunch!"
However, at this time, it was too late to realize the danger, and at the moment when Chu Xun entered the gate of the hospital, the heavy steel gate suddenly closed automatically, making a loud noise.
Then, the sound of crackling electricity rang out from the closed door.
Looking at the metal gate behind him that had been locked and faintly visible the glow of electric fire, Chu Xun's face suddenly became extremely ugly.
The crackling sound of electricity and the constant flickering sparks of electricity can only mean one thing, and that is that the locked door has been charged with terrible high voltage electricity at this moment.
That is, he is trapped!
