Chapter 549: Scavenger Hunt

The inside of the base was day and night, and Chu Jungui had just returned to his room to rest for less than half an hour, when Duan Xuyan appeared on the communication channel and said, "Are you ready? I'm at your door." ”

Chu Jun got up, opened the door, and sure enough, he saw that Duan Xuyan was already waiting there. He made a gesture and said, "Let's go, let's go to the warehouse." ”

The two of them walked through the corridor one after the other, turned on the stealth mode of the warframe, and sneaked towards the core area.

The fortress was dark, and many places were hidden in the shadows, and it was impossible to see the way without the armor's own glimmer vision. This base has faced an extreme shortage of materials since its establishment, and it seems that Director Su has made a psychological shadow, and even the lights in the base can not be turned on, and there is never one more.

This was convenient for Chu Jungui and Duan Xuyan, and the two of them walked quickly in the shadows, but they didn't go far before they encountered two guards. Duan Xuyan's figure gradually disappeared, and Chu Jungui's special forces armor also had optical stealth functions, gradually blending into the surrounding environment. The two of them passed between the two guards, one after the other.

It wasn't even a few steps before he turned a corner, and two more guards appeared. The two guards were talking to each other somewhat boredly.

"The old man has been a little strange lately, and he loses his temper at every turn. What's wrong with him? I'm going to double the guards, and I haven't had a break for 12 days. Can't we install a few more automatic monitoring stations?"

"It costs money to build a monitoring station, and we have already paid our salaries, so of course we have to die. ”

"We were really unlucky to follow him here to open a base. ”

"I can't say that, at least I can go back alive here. Many of those on the starship will never go back. ”

"After the last few days, we can go back, and we don't have to look at the old guy's face anymore. ”

The two guards talked to each other, but they gave Duan Xuyan and Chu Jun a problem. Duan Xuyan thought for a moment, then simply lay on the ground and crawled over close to the feet of the two guards. He crawled close to the ground, and even though the guards felt something strange in the corner of their eyes, they ignored it in the dim light.

Chu Jungui didn't expect Duan Xuyan to be able to put down his body like this, and he couldn't help but be even more curious about him. However, Chu Jungui didn't need to pass like him. The subject bowed slightly, avoiding the intersection of the two guards, and one accelerated, easily passing between the two.

Earlier, Xu Yan got up from the ground and turned back to find Chu Jungui, but he didn't see anything. At this moment, someone on his shoulder patted him gently, and when he looked back, he saw a pair of eyes floating in the air.

Duan Xuyan's surprise was not trivial, and he almost screamed. Fortunately, he calmed down and worked well, and then found that these eyes were Chu Jungui's deliberate removal of part of the optical stealth effect.

"Follow me. Duan Xuyan made a gesture and continued to move forward. Just now, he just thought that he didn't pay attention, and Chu Jungui turned on the optical stealth effect, so he didn't find out.

In just a few hundred meters of passage, the two of them encountered at least seven or eight guards, and there were only two monitoring stations. It seems that it is indeed as the two guards said, people are not valuable, and the monitoring station is very expensive. According to the density of guards in this arrangement, I am afraid that more than half of the people in the entire base are standing guard on duty.

Duan Xuyan does have some ability, when he encounters the monitoring station, he simply sends a signal, and after a few seconds, the monitoring station ignores the two of them.

It's just that there will be some trouble in the guarded place, but Duan Xuyan's four-character secret method of slow entry and prostrate still passed without danger.

When the two of them stood in front of the warehouse gate, Duan Xuyan was already sweating slightly. He let out a long breath and said, "If you want to say that the old guy is not boring, I don't believe it first! No problem, there is no need for such strict secrecy? Wait for me to see what kind of system is installed on this door...... Damn, pure hydraulics?"

The purely hydraulic system means that there is no power in the warehouse doors, and the switches are pushed by manpower. These two doors weigh more than ten tons, and under normal circumstances, it takes ten people to open and close, which is the nemesis of one or two infiltrators like Duan Xuyan and Chu Jungui. However, Duan Xuyan is not an ordinary person at all, and Chu Jungui is not a human being.

Duan Xuyan scanned the structure of the gate and said, "It takes 12 tons of thrust. Fortunately, Lao Tzu is physically strong and his armor is not bad, I can explode 7 tons in a short time, and how about handing over the remaining 5 tons to you?"

"No problem. This is naturally trivial for Chu Jungui.

The two of them each grabbed one of the handles of the door, and at the same time, they pulled the warehouse door open a one-meter-wide gap.

The warehouse was dark and dark, and there was no light at all. There was a cloud of dust everywhere, and dust came to your face the moment it was opened. With only a glimmer of light coming in through the crack in the door, I could only see a few meters away from the doorway.

Duan Xuyan directly turned on the battle armor spotlight, and a strange pillar of lilac light shot out, illuminating the interior of the warehouse.

"Isn't there a light source monitoring here?" Chu Jungui reminded.

"Definitely, I've found it. But the old miser had only installed a few generations of products, and the identification spectrum was very narrow. I can't recognize the light source that the light switch of this lamp. Alright, get to work, the scavenger hunt begins!"

The two split up to find it.

The warehouse was only half full, and it was all metal ingots of various kinds in the shape of long strips. There were several large crates against the wall, and when scanned, they were found to be half-empty, filled with slag or some ore of unknown purpose. Nothing else.

"Nothing?" Duan Xuyan naturally didn't believe it, and Chu Jungui didn't believe it either. The two searched in the warehouse for a long time, and even scanned the ores in the container, and found nothing other than some rare elements.

These containers of ore may be worth some money, but at best they are in the millions, far from being coveted by the Federation.

After looking for it for the second time, Duan Xuyan still didn't give up, and said, "There is no here, it must be somewhere else." Let's go back and look into it first and see where the secret might be hidden. ”

Chu Jungui didn't find anything out of the ordinary, so he and Duan Xuyan left the warehouse, and the two closed the door and returned the same way.

The two of them successfully returned to Chu Jungui's room, Duan Xuyan lifted the optical invisibility, took off his helmet, and frowned: "How can there be nothing?

Chu Jungui said: "The intercepts from the guards prove that excessive security measures have not always been like this, but only at the end of the war, and have continued to this day. ”

"That's something, but where is it?"

"What if that thing isn't very big?" Chu Jungui said suddenly.
