Chapter 50: The Base in the Heart of the Earth (Part II)
The special situation in Zhucheng determines that there is not much communication between the inheritors in the city, except for the companions within the hunting group, each other's attitudes are relatively indifferent, coupled with the wanton killing in the past few months, not to mention that everyone is psychopathic, at least at this moment, there will be no good people standing on Christina's deck in the normal sense, including Luo Tian and even Yao Tingting.
The situation in Zhucheng is not good or bad, at least, in this kind of apocalypse, being able to survive until now is a victory in itself. What's more, the scarcity of foreign exchanges also makes the same hunting group have a very close relationship with each other, and the bonds are very deep, which is also the reason why there are still so many strong people who come with them, knowing that the probability of death is extremely high.
Luo Tian's strength and brutality made the others uneasy. Although it is a loose group that has been put together temporarily, it is indeed not a good thing to have such an unruly and powerful guy here. Coincidentally, everyone handed over the responsibility of "upholding justice" to the group of female guards. However, Chen Xue's casual scolding made the hearts of these onlookers sink to the bottom, their faces sank, and there was more jealousy in their eyes when they looked at Luo Tian.
After understanding that Luo Tian, Lin Yufeng and the others were actually in a group, everyone knew that they couldn't afford to provoke them, so they simply avoided it, and they all got together and formed a small group to exclude Luo Tian and the others. This temporary team, which was already in tune with each other, has been openly split because of the Shentong incident. In this regard, although Lin Yufeng and the others were a little regretful, they didn't care much about it, after all, the reason why so many people were organized to come, and several people didn't have any good intentions in their hearts......
The conflict between Luo Tian and Shentong and others was very short, and when everything was over, Christina also happened to land next to the approach bridge of the Xiangjiang Bridge, between the bank of the Xiangjiang River and the urban area of Mocheng, it was clean and there were no zombies. This non-wide ribbon area happens to be a buffer zone between zombies and aquatic beasts, and the two parties tacitly maintain a posture of non-aggression against each other. Of course, when the airship landed, some zombies and aquatic beasts that did not have long eyes rushed towards the airship, but they were all blown to pieces by the small magic cannons on either side of Christina. The latter's powerful attack power silences the zombies and aquatic beasts that are about to move, and they are eyeing them fiercely.
As soon as the airship stopped, the group of people got off the boat one after another, gathered together, and looked around vigilantly, of course, Luo Tian and the others were also on their alert list, and they were the number one. In this regard, Luo Tianlin Yufeng and the others just sneered a few times in their hearts, a trace of sarcasm crossed their eyes, and they walked off the boat a few steps behind, and kept a distance of ten meters from them "tacitly".
Mu Xiaoxiao finally stepped off the boat, she had been staying in the control room before, but she didn't realize the strange scene in front of her, she just pressed her hands on the side of the boat, her mouth was full of words, and a colorful brilliant light appeared on her body. When the brightness of the colored light rose to the peak, the majestic airship actually shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally turned into a palm-sized spaceship model, which fell in Mu Xiaoxiao's palm.
Such a wonderful scene made Luo Tian couldn't help but applaud and admire, tsk. Yao Tingting's eyes were full of golden light, and his little head couldn't help but fantasize about shrinking the elves into models.
The magical scene seemed to shake the zombies and aquatic beasts on both sides for a while, and everyone obviously felt a "cautious" "emotion", and in a trance, their warning roars were also dull.
Yuan Fang and Scarface Li Hao, as the respective survivors of the two small groups, kept a two-step distance between the two and walked side by side at the front, leading everyone towards the Xiangjiang Bridge.
On a small road that is not wide in the middle, more than 20 people are moving forward slowly, on both sides of the road, densely packed with monsters, staring at strange red or green eyes, and letting out a dull roar in their mouths, ready to go, looking like they can pounce at any time. Such a scene is really weird and weird, full of a sense of disobedience.
Fortunately, this group of people are not normal people, although they are vigilant, they don't have much worry. The artists are bold, and everyone is confident that with their own strength, these monsters can't stop themselves. On the contrary, it is the companions who are walking around you that are really on the lookout.
A few minutes later, under the leadership of the two, the group came to the door of the control room on the Mocheng side of the Xiangjiang Bridge.
Pushing open the rusty steel door, a wide, oversized control room appeared in front of everyone. Directly opposite the door was a huge main console, full of colorful buttons, and a thin layer of dust had fallen on it, and it looked like no one had come in for a long time. There is a sub-console on each side of the main console, and the three are connected by intertwined wires vertically and horizontally, plus some clutter, giving people a messy feeling.
In this generally dirty and messy room, a very clean floor is extremely conspicuous, and it immediately attracts everyone's attention. This piece of clean floor is roughly rectangular in shape, and if you look closely, you can see that there is a slight break between it and the pattern of the surrounding floor tiles.
Yuan Fang and Li Hao glanced at each other, the latter nodded, Yuan Fang walked to the front of the main, two, and three-seat consoles, and pressed or twisted or patted or beat in some hidden places that were difficult for ordinary people to notice, and they were pounded for ten minutes, and a fine sweat broke out on their smooth foreheads. Immediately afterward, a "click" was heard, and the clean floor caved downward, then cracked and shrank to the sides, revealing an entrance large enough for two people to go down at the same time.
The highest realm in Li Hao's group was a middle-level peak, a tall thin man named Zhou Fu, who might enter the high-level of the Xuan-level at any time, and was elected by others as a temporary talker. Facing the entrance that Yuan Fang made, Lin Yufeng and Zhou Fu discussed for a while and decided the order of entry for the two parties. After all, although they learned from the six survivors that the sixteen defense nets were not in danger before, none of the people present dared to take their lives under the control of others, let alone look at each other unpleasantly.
Luo Tian and Yao Tingting were assigned together and walked to the front and middle of the group. Yuan Fang and Li Hao were in second place, and Zhou Fu and Fu Yu were at the forefront side by side, protecting the safety of the two insiders.
As Yuan Fang said before, there was no danger along the way.
Everyone traveled all the way, and after half an hour, they passed through twelve levels, saw all kinds of equipment that only existed in science fiction movies, and couldn't help but sigh for the strength of the Tianxia Empire. It's a pity that a cataclysm wiped out all this and destroyed thousands of years of human civilization and wisdom, and now only these scrap iron remain.
"There was a smell of sulfur in the air!" Suddenly, someone warned you. It was a man with a loyal face, who had been dealing with brimstone a lot before the cataclysm and was familiar with the smell. Although the smell was so faint that even a person with an extremely keen sense of smell did not notice it.
The crowd was skeptical, but some of the lax vigilance was restored. Within a few minutes, the man with a keen sense of smell said the same thing, and when the group saw the gate of the thirteenth level, almost everyone felt the agitation in the air.
The temperature of the air had risen by several degrees, and the frenzied flame element mixed with the air had irrepressibly produced a little irritable and irritated mood in everyone's hearts, and the anger in their hearts unconsciously grew and escaped.
"Magma! You can't be wrong, it's the breath of magma! A young man of twenty-five or sixteen years old with pimples on his face frowned deeply, and a look of doubt appeared on his face. Before the cataclysm, he studied geography and had a deep memory of the active volcano. "But there is still some way to go from the shallowest magma layer...... It's not scientific......"
"Unless ......" The pimple youth's expression changed drastically, and his eyes were full of fear: "The magma layer has risen!" ”
The pimple's words startled everyone, but they didn't believe it, thinking that the child's head was squeezed by the door. After all, although the B virus has brought great changes to the source star, turning the original prosperous planet into the current dead land, it is barely within the range of everyone's acceptance - a new microorganism can cause catalytic changes in animals and plants is also explained by previous knowledge, but to say that such an alien microbiome can change the geological structure of a planet...... That's!
Ignoring the many disdainful stares on the side, the pimple crouched down and pointed and drew on the floor with his fingers, muttering some technical terms that no one could understand. Moreover, as the amount of "calculation" increased, his face became more and more ugly, and the fear in his eyes became more and more intense, which made Luo Tian and the others on the side feel a little uncomfortable. This guy is so weird.
Ahem! Zhou Fu couldn't look at it anymore, coughed a few times, interrupted the calculation of the pimple, waved his hand and said: "Okay, don't delve into these meaningless things, anyway, you have to move on, even if there is really magma, you can see it immediately." Luo Tian could hear a trace of emptiness in Zhou Fu's tone, obviously, unconsciously, everyone believed in the theory of pimples.
The pimple opened his mouth to refute something, but when he looked around, as if he understood something, he closed his mouth.
The group continued to move forward, passing through the thirteenth and fourteenth defensive levels. At this time, the temperature in the surrounding air was already as high as more than 40 degrees, as if a large steamer was tightly enveloping everyone, and no escape could be escaped.
Those with weaker physiques such as Yao Tingting couldn't stand it anymore and summoned the Flame Horse and the Carp King. The former was able to isolate the scorching air around her, and the latter was held in her arms, providing her with a steady stream of coolness and persistence.
At this point, almost all of them activated the energy in their bodies, moving around their bodies, separating the scorching heat. Everyone's faces were very unsightly, because, everyone found that at this depth, almost every ten steps forward, the temperature around them would rise by one degree! If you continue like this, not to mention the final eighteenth defense network, even if the sixteenth level that wiped out Yuan Fang and the others last time, it may not be able to reach it smoothly!
According to the calculation of ten steps and one degree, when you reach the sixteenth level, the surrounding temperature will only reach nearly sixty degrees!
Sixty degrees! Although all the people present are non-human beings, they can't operate normally in such a terrifying temperature! Moreover, even idiots know that the growth trend of temperature will only become more and more urgent, and in the future, I am afraid that it will reach one step at a time!
Every time the temperature rises by one degree, everyone's faces become ugly, and when the temperature reaches fifty degrees, someone's face is completely black, and it is iron-blue!
Soon, however, a strange color rose up on everyone's cheeks.
It's a very complicated expression.
mixed with speechlessness, grief, helplessness, self-deprecation, and rejoicing......
The surrounding steel walls shimmered red, the result of the transpiration of the fire.
In the distance, the sound of the crashing waves reached everyone's ears.
It was the sound of magma churning.
