Chapter Thirty-Nine: There Was a Chicken
Floating on the top of the jungle and being in the jungle are two different feelings, watching this once human residential area disappear in just 80 years, turning into a whole leafy primeval jungle, Su Le can't help but sigh at the insignificance of human beings and the shortness of time.
The late autumn nights are a bit hot, with stars and moonlight in the sky. The pitch-black night provided Su Le with the best protection, and with the pure black combat suit, his whole person almost blended in with the surrounding environment.
The outline of the energy base gradually became clear, there was no scene of bright lights, no roaring noise of machinery, and the huge base was as dead and silent as a ghost!
Su Le landed slowly at the gate of the southern area of the energy base, a huge crack was torn open in the defense net tens of meters high, and there were many xenomorph bones scattered on the ground, but the ten-meter-long light energy defense zone in the net continued to operate, and countless blue pillars of light of different thicknesses were staggered horizontally and vertically with the aura of destruction, weaving a web of death in the net, in this case, it was impossible for a large-scale xenomorph to attack it.
Su Le walked to the door of the south gate, checked his pupils on the access control next to the door, and printed his bracelet to check the information.
"Member of the fifth team of the Sixth District Splitter, Su Le!"
"Verified and approved!"
The door control emitted a mechanical electronic sound, and then the two heavy tempered doors at the main entrance slowly opened, and Su Le walked in leisurely.
After entering this door, there is a long corridor, which leads directly to the South District Productivity Department Building, and the main control room is on the top floor of the central building, where you need to pass through the Productivity Department Building and then pass through a staff living area to arrive, the second energy base is very large, there are thousands of employees, not to mention their families, the base is equipped with various living facilities and schools, and it has become a small town.
According to the intelligence, all the xenos who rushed in were active in this southern area at the foot of Su Le, because there were also defensive barriers and light energy defense belts between each area, just in case the xenos broke through the outer defenses, they could rely on the internal defense means to fight and drag the reinforcements to arrive.
Su Le walked in this silent transparent glass corridor, the blood-stained glass on both sides showed that there had been a fierce battle here, but Su Le didn't see a single corpse, some were just blood-stained glass and the ground, and he couldn't tell whether it was human or alien.
Su Le didn't find any living things in the surrounding area of 100 meters, not even a single dead thing!
It's weird.
Where does the blood come from?
The signal of this piece has been completely blocked, otherwise it would be possible for Chris to check the source of these blood stains, Su Le thought with a little regret in his heart.
Looking out the window through the glass, this is the construction area, and a huge gap was punched in the glass not far away, thinking that it was the breakthrough that opened after the aliens in the video rushed in, and the messy footprints on the ground said everything, anyway, Su Le didn't find out that a footprint was wearing shoes after watching it for a long time.
"Su Le? Can you hear me? ”
Liu Dragonfly's cold and pleasant voice came from the earphones, which brought a touch of refreshment in this sultry autumn evening.
"I can hear you." Su Le replied in a low voice.
"Whew~"
Someone on the other end of the headset obviously gasped, and then I heard Liu Dragonfly ask:
"How's your situation going over there?"
Su Le looked around: "It's not good, there are blood stains everywhere, but there are no corpses." ”
Liu Dragonfly was silent for a moment and then said, "Pay attention to safety, report any situation as soon as possible!" ”
Su Le didn't reply again, but continued to move forward.
After walking through this hundred-meter corridor, Su Le walked into the building of the production capacity department, and as soon as he stepped here, he saw a mess, with overturned facilities and equipment everywhere, and some intelligent machines that had been destroyed by xenomorphs scattered on the ground.
Only the vending machine in the corner of the hall is intact, flickering with lights, echoing the green emergency lights in the hall at this time.
Su Le looked up at the giant screen installed on the wall in the center of the hall, a huge paw print was engraved in the center of the screen, and the fragments of parts inside were dug out, like an abstract horror painting!
There was no difference between the ground and the hallway, as bloody and eerie as ever, there were no corpses but blood stains all over the place! The overhead light flickered and rattled.
Su Le didn't need to shout to know that there was no one nearby, and his mental power probed the entire building, and there was no one alive.
Su Le walked out of the hall and walked through the back door of the hall into another corridor, which was the passage to the rear residential area, and after speeding all the way, he came to the end, and a heavy iron gate blocked his way.
Su Le tried the access control, but it was already broken and couldn't be used, so he had no choice but to force his way in by brute force.
He raised his arm and palmed it against the iron door, his five fingers slightly bent, and a special thought invisibly changed the physical rules here.
The iron gate was also affected, and it was dented little by little from the center, and finally forcibly dismantled with a bang and flew out of the distance!
Su Le walked out of the gate, and behind the door was a defensive barrier and a light energy defense belt, but the defensive measures that were supposed to work as usual were silent at this time, and all of them were shut down.
Su Le observed it, and there was no trace of destruction, which made a thought in his heart even more firm.
He continued to walk inside into the residential area, and it was not all the Xiacheng people who were originally Yangcheng who could work in the second energy base, but the people who surrounded the city actually accounted for a large part, and they provided technical support, so the Xiacheng people who worked here were also fortunate enough to live in the houses built around the city, and they were stained with their light.
The residential area here is made up of many semi-circular individual houses, which look like inverted white porcelain bowls, but at this time, the doors of every house are locked, the wide roads are covered with blood, and many hoverboards are lying on the ground, a scene of chaos after the disaster.
This area is actually very large, and Su Le can faintly see the central building behind the residential area, which is faintly visible in the night.
Each house has a separate courtyard, and the greening is also very good, Su Le walked into this residential area, and the bustling shopping mall building not far away still hung the enthusiastic posters of the hot stars in Yangcheng, but the claw marks on the actress's mouth destroyed her overall beauty.
Su Le walked through this quiet residential area, his mental power probed every house around, but he also found nothing, it had been almost an hour since he came in, and he still didn't find any valuable clues, but the only thing that was certain was that the entire base might have been captured except for the southern district, and the defense forces were nowhere to be found without internal defense means, and the xenomorphs were like wolves in this base.
Su Le couldn't help but speed up his pace when he thought of this, he needed to hurry, it would be dawn in a few hours, and they would be even more passive at that time.
Su Le galloped along the avenue, getting closer and closer to the central building.
The broken glass door and the blood-stained staircase all indicated that this place had also been attacked, Su Le walked into the gate, looked at the hall around him that was no different from the production department, and used his spiritual power to inspect every corner of this building little by little.
Ten minutes later, nothing!
Su Le finally couldn't hold his breath anymore, this base is now like a ghost town! I can't see anyone alive, I can't see a corpse alive! These people and xenos seem to have vanished out of thin air.
"Captain!" He opened the headset in a low tone and said.
"What's wrong?"
Liu Dragonfly's nervous voice came from the other end of the headset.
"Did you find anything?"
Zhou Qi's voice also appeared in the channel.
"Nope." Su Le sighed: "Nothing, it's like entering a parallel space, there is not a single ghost." ”
"That's right." Liu Dragonfly also felt a little numb on her scalp: "Then why don't you go and see the people in the refuge room?" ”
"Vault?" Su Le remembered that before leaving, he had said that all the employees of the base had fled to the refuge room.
"Why don't I go to the general control room and restart the base first?" Su Le asked tentatively.
Liu Dragonfly thought for a while and said, "Let's go and see the people in the refuge room first, and find out the situation first!" ”
She would have thought that there was a fierce battle, but the current situation made her very uneasy, so she had better find someone to clarify the situation first, and if the threat was not cleared, even if the base was restarted, there would be no workers to maintain his operation.
"How to get there? Send me the road map! ”
"Are you in the lobby of the Central Building?" Liu Dragonfly asked.
"Yes!" Su Le looked around: "The elevator should have broken down, is there any secret passage?" ”
"On your left-hand side, there's a chicken! Can you see it? Liu Dragonfly asked.
Su Le looked to the left, and sure enough, there was a fist-sized screaming chicken fixed to the wall, and if you didn't look closely, it was easy to mistake it for decoration.
"See, and then what?" Su Le walked over and touched it and asked.
"Press three times, then three times, and the passage will open!" Liu Dragonfly said.
