Chapter 247: Base
The huge rotors were spinning like the tires of some giant war machine. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
It's like a waterwheel magnified countless times.
It's amazing how such a huge machine can only make such a small buzzing sound.
But the sounds were enough for us to sneak into the base quietly.
There was no equipment in the huge room other than the machine.
It's just that...... The intricate large and small pipes that cling to the walls look creepy.
Kind of like the alien base in some games.
It's more like the chemical plant we were in when we confronted Kong Yunlei before.
Could this be......
"It's a nuclear power generator, right?"
Xia Yumiao is quite knowledgeable and said it for me.
So where we are, this corridor built on the fence, should be the exit for emergency escape?
It is worthy of the intrusion point chosen by Kong Yunlei, which is in line with his identity.
We walked down the iron escalator, around the huge machine, to a doorway.
Inside the door was a hallway, and there were so many layers of things on top of each other that it was impossible to see what it was for.
It's just that......
This corridor is separated by a clear glass every few steps.
Presumably, this is a safe corridor into the computer room.
I scouted cautiously and found that no one was watching over the place.
That's right, most of Kong Yunlei's manpower was assigned to the artillery position.
Even in the end, there was only one person who stayed to snipe me, and there were still people who set up posts everywhere.
So I walked up boldly, and Xia Yumiao followed me with a cautious look.
"That...... You'd better hide."
"What? It's all here, at least let me see the ending."
Hey, this isn't a movie.
"Further, I really won't be able to protect you"
Xia Yumiao frowned.
Then he took a step ahead of me.
"It's as if you're protecting me all the way"
Yay?
When did Xia Yumiao learn to complain so sharply.
"Hey!"
I grabbed Xia Yumiao's hand and tried to stop her.
Boom!
Boom!
Something slightly trembling sounded from the ground.
Makes my feet tingle slightly.
"Bah-"
I didn't need to pull it, Xia Yumiao automatically ran behind me, grabbed my arms with both hands, and only showed his face to look ahead.
I didn't have time to talk about her, I just felt the sweat on my forehead popping up one by one...... It's like a sponge.
Seriously, even now, I don't have any plans.
Now that Ellie's magic power has basically cooled down, if she really fights Kong Yunlei, she really has no chance of winning.
Wait a minute......
I seem to remember something, very important details.
It is said that when people are pushed to the limit, they can always break through themselves, just like me now.
At the airport, when he met the barbarian, he seemed to be more concerned about Elle's existence than did anything.
This can probably be understood that he knows what kind of strength Her Royal Highness Princess Elle has.
His intelligence is also Kong Yunlei's intelligence.
So the current Kong Yunlei should also be very concerned about the existence of Princess Elle.
They didn't know about the fact that Ellie's mana was cooling, so I actually had a head start.
Boom!
Boom!
A slight tremor on the ground faded away.
Eighty percent of this voice comes from...... The barbarian.
Walk cautiously through the passage and lean out.
Behind the long corridor are the cabins, arranged like factories.
They are all separated by clear glass, and occasionally some huge pillars can be seen.
Of course, it seems that there is no need for such pillars underground, and those are probably the hard ores encountered in the process of digging tunnels.
In each of the surrounding cabins, there are many control and writing desks, as well as large whiteboards with complex geometric shapes drawn on them.
This is...... It's more like an experimental facility than a launch base.
“...... Hurry up."
There was a voice from the front.
I squeezed Xia Yumiao's hand and walked forward along the corridor on tiptoe.
In the front few glass windows, a figure flickered.
I hurriedly pulled Xia Yumiao and leaned down.
Thankfully, there are wall skirts that can help us out.
If it's all clear glass, there's nowhere to hide here.
“...... I won't work with you, you ......."
The voice of the other man, unheard, seemed a little trembling, but very angry.
Xia Yumiao and I quickened our pace and crept to the outside of the room where there was someone.
Then carefully stick your head out and look inside.
It was a spacious room with some neat cabinets and tables that seemed to be a cafeteria.
On the edge of the surrounding wall, a circle of people sat next to each other.
Two types of attire, most in white coats, and a few in military uniforms.
Researchers?
They were all tied up and sat on the ground against the wall.
It turns out that Kong Yunlei is also going to capture prisoners?
And then...... Here's the problem.
Standing in the middle of the room, there was not only Kong Yunlei, but also the barbarian.
It's just that...... The barbarian wasn't as big as he was in the airport.
His current height is only a cut above Kong Yunlei, far less than three meters tall, probably less than two meters.
It seems that he shrunk himself with some kind of magic.
Come to think of it, otherwise how could you get into such a narrow electric car, and how could you walk into the narrow passage just now.
"Let me remind you one last time, I don't have to ask for your help."
Kong Yunlei's tone had obviously become cold, and he seemed to have lost interest.
"Gulek's magic can easily serve its purpose"
"Hahaha......"
Kong Yunlei's words drew bursts of laughter from the people around him.
It seems that the word magic makes everyone think that Kong Yunlei is a madman.
Hmmm――
Countless blue powders came out of the hands of the barbarian named Gulek.
Some face up, some face down.
Gradually, the powders coalesced together to form a giant trident.
Suddenly, everyone in the room stopped laughing and looked at the big man in amazement.
Hey, could it be that Kong Yunlei was the only one who suppressed everyone here?
Could it be that before this, Guluck didn't even move his hand?
How lax must the guards at this base be?
Gulek suddenly glanced back at us.
"Hide"
I hurriedly pulled Xia Yumiao down on my stomach.
But it seems to be too late.
"Bugs outside, show up"
Smack!
Immediately, the glass above our heads exploded.
I hurriedly protected Ellie in my arms, and at the same time protected Xia Yumiao as much as possible.
I could feel a lot of shards falling on my back, but luckily it didn't cut through my flesh.
What to do, has already been discovered.
But if this place shows weakness, doesn't it just expose my weakness?
Based on what has just been analyzed, it should now be-
I motioned for Xia Yumiao not to come out, and then stood up on my own.
Patting Ellie's shoulder, which was hidden in his arms, the little one seemed to immediately understand what I was thinking, and got out of my arms and sat firmly on my shoulder.
"Yo, I didn't expect to see you again"
Kong Yunlei had a mocking tone, but his face was not surprised at all.
"I warned you long ago not to waste your precious manpower on them"
Gulek seemed a little angry, and turned back to Kong Yunlei and complained.
"It doesn't matter, our mission is one-way anyway, and no one wants to go back alive"
This guy!
Sell your men openly!
I didn't think about going back, and I looked like a terrorist.
is completely different from what he said before, those obsessions that can't be let go, are completely two attitudes.
Suddenly I felt a surge of anger burn in my heart.
Only this guy can't be forgiven!
