Chapter 182: The Place of Convergence
After simply cleaning up the wound, Xie Liu continued to set off, the wound on his chest may already be a fatal injury for ordinary people, but for a physical mutant like Xie Liu, it is not a big problem, the only uncomfortable thing is that in the previous battle, Xie Liu lost a lot of blood, and he felt weak at the moment.
There was a tunnel with no end in sight, Xie Liu just glanced at it, and then sighed helplessly.
Due to the overload of the motorized belt, the steel wire in it has been broken by Xie Liu, in order to lose weight Xie Liu has thrown away the belt, and at this moment in this tunnel with a slope of 60 degrees, Xie Liu can only rely on his own hands to climb up.
"Can you locate my location?" Xie Liu opened his watch, only to find that the thing was actually damaged.
"I'm rubbing, you're the crystallization of technology in Fantasy City, it's so easy to break?" Xie Liu scolded angrily and threw this thing on the ground, as if he heard Vladimir's evil laughter, and visually saw that the guy had taken a bargain to prevaricate himself.
After dropping the watch on the ground, Xie Liu sat on the ground angrily, recovering his strength and starting to think about his situation at the moment.
"Those killers probably won't catch up for a while. My most important problem at the moment is figuring out where I am. Xie Liu raised his hand to cover his wound, and the place where he was stabbed was still painful.
After enduring the pain, Xie Liu still recalled everything before in his mind, he remembered that he took the train from Canadian Rum to the surface, this train used very few people, so there were very few transfer stations on the way, Xie Liu remembered that there should be only one place.
"Quias Forest. The name came to Xie Liu's mind, it was an artificial forest built by the Huaxia branch of Fantasy City three thousand meters underground, named 'Quiet Earth', which was homonymically called the Quias Forest.
The Atlantum is located at the bottom of the sea at more than 7,000 meters, while the Quias Forest is 3,000 meters underground, and the vertical distance is 4,000 meters, which is not counting the horizontal distance, and it is conservatively estimated that the Atlantum is tens of kilometers away from the Quias Forest.
Xie Liu gnawed his fingernails and gritted his teeth and said, "Who is so damn to design the tunnel so far away, and sincerely want to kill me?"
However, although Xie Liu scolded, he still stood up, a distance of dozens of kilometers, this is the most conservative estimate, if the horizontal distance is relatively long, thousands of kilometers are possible.
It was useless to think too much, after Xie Liu stood up, his physical strength had recovered a little, and he needed to continue to move. Turning his head and seeing the volcano outside the tempered glass, Xie Liu couldn't help but shake his head, the singing could no longer be heard, this huge volcano seemed to be only a little big now. It's not realistic to go back, not to mention that the assassins are still waiting for him, and the way back has already been blown up.
"As long as you're not dead, you're almost. Xie Liu began to climb the track, which had a slope of 60 degrees, and in this bottomless seabed, he could only choose to climb step by step.
......
Vladimir returned to the dormitory and found Ye Ling, who had already brought everyone back, and saw Ye Ling smiling and pestering Lin Yang, Vladimir's face suddenly became gloomy, "When is it, and you are still in the mood to laugh, Xie Liu is going to die." ”
"Huh?"
The people who were busy tidying up the dormitory in the dormitory stopped what they were doing and turned their heads to look at Vladimir, who had broken in. After a few seconds, they went on their own business.
"Oh, he's going to die, and then the lollipops he treasured will be ours. Ye Ling smiled and took out Xie Liu's lollipop from Xie Liu's cabinet, skillfully opened the icing and put it in his mouth, and said with a smile: "Vladimir, your joke is not funny at all, besides, if it's April Fool's Day today, let's eat a lollipop." ”
With that, he handed another lollipop to Vladimir.
Vladimir's face was gloomy, and he looked at the lollipop handed over by Ye Ling, and then he raised his hand and slapped it out, and said angrily: "Do you think I'm joking with you? Xie Liu is now trapped at the bottom of the sea at a distance of five thousand meters, and he may die every second!"
The lollipop slammed against the wall, shattered into countless pieces with a click, and there was silence in the dormitory for a moment, and they finally knew that Vladimir was not joking.
"What the hell is going on?"
......
Xie Liu tore his coat into strips of cloth, connected them piece by piece, tied one end to his waist, and the other end tied to the track, and then found a slightly comfortable position, and the whole person hung on the track.
"It's getting steeper, it's really damning. Xie Liu muttered and complained, he looked down at his feet, it was so dark that he couldn't see anything, he had been climbing for a long time, Xie Liu estimated that he had advanced to a height of thousands of meters, but when he came here, Xie Liu had no way to retreat, there was no place to rest here, and if he accidentally slipped down, at this height, he would definitely fall into a blur of flesh and blood, and he couldn't die anymore.
"How far is it? Xie Liu looked up at the tunnel in front of him that had no end in sight, he had already regretted it here, he had known that this was the case, he might as well stay where he was and wait for rescue, now that he is here, a position that does not go up or down, it is really a dilemma.
The worst thing is that Xie Liu felt that the air here was gradually becoming thinner, I don't know if it was the destruction of the previous passage that caused problems with the gas circulation system of this tunnel, in short, Xie Liu felt that it was becoming more and more difficult for him to breathe.
"It's so unlucky today, it's all those guys. Xie Liu cursed in his heart the assassins who came to assassinate him, if it weren't for them, he would probably have returned to the dormitory at this moment, and blackmailed a wave of Gong Hou's group.
However, it was still a bit early to give up, and Xie Liu continued to climb upwards after a short rest.
At the same time, a strange bubble appeared in the deep sea, and there were three people suspended in the bubble, it was really the three people who attacked Xie Liu, "Princess, we lost that guy." ”
"I didn't expect this guy to be able to climb so far, do you want to find it along the track?" said the man named Mingzhi who had attacked Xie Liu before, looking at the masked woman behind him.
"No, this tunnel is more than a hundred kilometers long, all the way to find it, my superpower can't last so long in the sea, that person wants to get out, he has to go through the Quias Forest, we go through the other passages, as long as we can get there before him. The masked woman thought for a moment before speaking.
"The princess is right, there is no need for us to waste time here, just go to the Quias Forest and wait for him. The person who had been standing at the end said, looking at the woman in front of him with mixed emotions in his eyes.
"Since the princess has decided so, let's go back. "Mingzhi will never disobey the orders of the woman behind her, even if she lets herself die, she will not hesitate.
......
"What do you mean, don't let us pass, you tell me clearly!" Ye Ling angrily grabbed the staff member's collar, "We have friends down there, and our lives are in danger every second." ”
At the exit of the third floor of the Huaxia Branch, Ye Ling and the staff quarreled, because there was no other, because the tunnel below was broken, and the entire Huaxia Branch suspended the operation of all tunnels on this line.
"This young lady, if you really have friends in Canadian Solarm, you can use the space transfer device, because the tunnel is closed, the transfer device is open for free today. The staff pointed to the long queue of hundreds of people on the right. "It takes a little time to queue though. ”
"Why don't you understand what I mean!" Ye Ling raised his hand and wanted to beat this staff member, but was stopped by Lin Yang.
"Don't make a fuss. Lin Yang shouted loudly and stopped Ye Ling's nonsense.
"Judging from the time it took to find Xie Liu's disappearance, how long has it been?" Xie Liu was not in the team, Lin Yang became the intellectual leader of the team, and he turned his head to ask Vladimir behind him.
"It's been three hours. After Vladimir finished speaking, Lin Yang was silent for a moment, and then said: "It's useless for everyone to be anxious now, it's been three hours, if Xie Liu is fine, it is estimated that he will be out of danger now, and if he is really dead, it is estimated that he will be cold." ”
"What are you talking about!" Ye Ling couldn't help but complain, Lin Yang shrugged, "According to my thoughts, if Xie Liu is still alive, he only has one place to go." ”
Xu Xiong silently opened the map, and Lin Yang pointed to the bottom, "This is Canadian Lum, according to Xie Liu's character, he will definitely choose the fastest speed to go home after finishing his errands, so he will definitely take the through train from Canadian Rum to the ground." ”
Lin Yang lit up a small line, "Is this the broken tunnel?"
"Yes, this is it. Vladimir, who had already obtained first-hand information using his authority, pointed to a section of the line, "This is where the broken location is, and the last signal of Xie Liu is also missing here." ”
"Then there are three possibilities, the first is that Xie Liu is dead. ”
"Phew, what are you talking nonsense?" Ye Ling scolded, Lin Yang frowned, he just stated a possibility, but it made Ye Ling very angry.
"Let me explain this. Vladimir spoke at this time, "According to the staff, some time after the break, they detected signs of life in this tunnel, and it is certain that Xie Liu was fine at that moment. ”
"Then rule out the first possibility, the second possibility, Xie Liu quickly fled after the explosion and returned to the next section of the explosion site. Lin Yang pointed to the city below, "If that's the case, it's very likely that he's returned to Canadian Arms." ”
"The third possibility, he fled to the top. Lin Yang's fingers slid to it, "Then the only place he can go is here." ”
......
"Quias Forest. ”
Hagen stared at the big screen in front of him, and after listening to his subordinates' analysis, he pointed to the artificial forest bell, he pressed the cigar in his hand into the ashtray, and asked calmly: "So, Team Zero failed the first round of attacks?"
"Yes, Lord Chairman, but Captain Zero said that they are still chasing them. The man in the darkness said respectfully, and Hagen waved impatiently for him to go down.
Watching the debriefer leave, Hagen sat back in his seat, "This dead eye is really difficult to deal with, do you need to send more people?"
But no one answered him, only the light smoke of the cigar that had not yet burned out.
