Chapter IV, Section 20

According to the plants wrapped around this iron door, it has been opened like this for a long time, and if Master Wei opened it, it means that he has been discovering this place for at least two or three years.

There was no shadow of any guards around the desolate gate, and there was no trace of human activity, it seems that Han Wei said that there was no one to guard here, and he really didn't lie to me.

Before entering the cave, we each changed into mountaineering equipment, and by the way, we allocated weapons and ammunition, we counted when we came, and there were a total of 19 pistol bullets and two iron sand bullets in our hands, in order to make the fire more even, we came this time with a total of four guns, one scatter/bullet/gun.

Of all of us, Officer Zhang had the best marksmanship, so in addition to the shot/bullet/gun, he also carried an imitation Beretta M9 pistol with five rounds.

Mr. Wang always carried a pistol that imitated the sixth/fourth style, which was also equipped with five bullets.

And I took that M1911 with me, also with five rounds.

The last homemade revolver and four rounds of ammunition were carried by Da Fei.

The reason for this distribution is to increase the rate of return fire with limited ammunition, of course, this proposal was put forward by Officer Zhang and approved by Mr. Wang.

We didn't equip Zhang Yang with a gun, because he only needed to be responsible for carrying two shields and being our mobile cover.

As for the insect master and the iron wire, I automatically classified it into the protected range, I believe that let the insect master go to shoot, it is estimated that the other party stands in front of his nose, he can miss, or don't waste the bullet. Not to mention the wire, I saw him holding a gun before, and when he aimed, his hands trembled like Parkinson's, and it was estimated that the accuracy was not much stronger than that of the insect master.

We gave each of the earthen bombs we made two, and the rest was all carried on Zhang Yang's body.

In addition, each of us must carry a backpack full of things, which is full of emergency items necessary in the field, including compressed biscuits, canned luncheon meat, solid alcohol, energy powder, gauze, bandages, etc., plus three bottles of mineral water and a military kettle, each of whom weighs nearly 30 pounds, although it is very heavy, everyone has no complaints, because these things can be used to save lives at critical moments.

Of course, Zhang Yang was not light because he was carrying a shield, and the insect master was an older man, so the backpack items of the two of them were evenly distributed to others, so our backpack was even heavier.

After packing up, we started to head into the tunnel, because the entrance to the tunnel is very large, so we decided to drive the Raptor pickup directly into it, so that everyone can save a lot of energy and drive away at the critical moment. As for Mr. Wang's wrangler, he was left outside the cave to prevent an accident when we drove in and we lost all means of transportation.

Still Da Fei drove, Zhang Yang and Officer Zhang stood in the back box, responsible for lookout and surveillance, and the rest of the others were squeezed into the cab.

There is no light source in the cave, and after driving a few hundred meters inside, the surroundings are completely dark, but fortunately, there is a row of lights on the roof of this pickup truck, which can be turned on to illuminate the environment around us.

There are many tools scattered on the ground in the tunnel, including shovels, hoes and even drilling rigs, etc., which are thrown on the ground in a disorderly manner, so Da Fei can only drive slowly, and the speed is not as fast as jogging.

After walking a few dozen meters, the first corner appeared in my sight, and the tunnel in front of me turned ninety degrees to the right, extending straight over, but from here, the tunnel began to become narrower, and the roof of the tunnel was only one meter higher than the roof of the Raptor car, and Zhang Yang and Officer Zhang in the back box had to bend over to avoid hitting their heads on the roof.

Officer Zhang tapped the roof of the car twice to signal stop, and then leaned on the sunroof of the car and said to us: "We walked here last time, but we haven't been inside, and the road below will depend entirely on the map, so everyone cheers up and pays attention to the situation around us." ”

Officer Zhang spread the map on the roof of the car, carefully guarding the surroundings, and at the same time commanding Dafei to drive deeper according to the pre-demarcated route on the map.

I've seen the map, and it's true that as Officer Zhang said, the scale of this underground experimental base is very large, there are more than 170 large and small rooms in the third floor alone, and the 319 laboratory is in the center of the third floor. And according to the map, this laboratory is supposed to be around the centermost Laboratory No. 1 in a circular pattern, along with seven other laboratories.

Based on this information on the drawings, we came to two inferences, the first of which was that our initial guess was wrong, this was not a warehouse, but a large underground experimental base, but for some unknown reason, it was abandoned. The second is that the purpose of the construction of this base is to serve the One laboratory, as the intricate tunnels always surround it.

But judging from the situation on the site, the experiment should not have been successful, because on the way in I found a lot of abandoned equipment and tools, on the walls of some parts of the tunnel, before even having time to pour cement, and I have seen more than once that the drilling rig used to punch holes in the wall is still inserted in the concrete wall, as if the workers are just leaving temporarily and are about to return to continue their work. All this shows that the project at that time was abruptly stopped before it was completely completed, and the workers left in such a hurry that even so much equipment was abandoned.

You must know that in those days, machines were more expensive than human lives, but these people would abandon such a large amount of equipment, there must have been some huge change, and this change also forced them to dare not come back to pick up those abandoned equipment in the future.

I looked at the rigs, scaffolding, and cement piles that were still in construction condition, and thought about the images of the workers who threw down their work and fled in a hurry, and the more I thought about it, the more curious I became, what really happened at that time.

Just as I was thinking about it, a heavy blast door appeared at the front of the tunnel, which was not surprising, given that such doors can be found in many underground garages and underground passages, some even larger.

The blast door was open at this time, and the iron shaft of the door was rusted together, and it seemed that it could not be opened and closed.

I just glanced at it and looked away, such a large project, it is normal to install this kind of explosion-proof door, there is nothing to pay attention to.

But Officer Zhang, who was standing in the back box, suddenly slammed the roof of the car to let Da Fei stop, and as soon as the car stopped, he jumped out of the car box and ran to the explosion-proof door to study it carefully.

I poked my head out of the car window and asked him, "Officer Zhang, is there anything unusual?"

Officer Zhang stood in front of the blast door, carefully looked at both sides of the door, and then turned around twice in place with the map in his hand, and suddenly said, "Hey, there is something wrong with this door." Since it is an explosion-proof door, the latch should be facing inward, but how can this door be facing outward?"

After he reminded me, I also saw the problem, indeed as he said, the door latch of this explosion-proof door is facing the direction we entered, but the direction we came in is the hole, which is like the security door at home, there are two sides inside and outside, with a hidden lock naturally to face the room, and the other side to face the outside, if you install these two sides in reverse, the outside person can open the door of your house as soon as you pull the handle, but you yourself can't get out from the inside.

Although this seemed a little abnormal, he didn't see the reason for a long time, and finally could only speculate that it was a mistake during the installation.

Restarted the car and drove inward, and did not go far to see another explosion-proof door, which was also wide open, and was also installed in reverse, so our previous inference was untenable, and the two explosion-proof doors in a row were installed in reverse, so it is said that this is how the experimental base was designed at the beginning.

When passing by the iron gate, the insect master said leisurely: "It seems that this door is not to block the things outside, but to block the things inside!"

Needless to say, we have all thought of this possibility, maybe these two blast doors are the last line of defense for the entire base, once something uncontrollable, the soldiers guarding the gate will close the blast doors according to the procedure, and seal the people inside along with the trouble.

When I thought of the picture of those soldiers slowly closing the blast door with indifferent eyes, ignoring the cries and cries of the staff inside, I couldn't help but shudder, and the eyes of the others were full of horror.

I kept reassuring myself in my heart, after so many years, even if there was any threat, it should have happened a long time ago, otherwise how could this place be abandoned.

After passing through the second blast door, rooms began to appear on both sides of the tunnel, and we took a cursory look and found that these rooms were empty, or more precisely, not in use at all, because we found that some of the rooms only had door frames, but no doors, and some did not even have door frames.

It seems that I was a little too worried, and there was no chance of the cruel incident I imagined to happen here, because it was abandoned before it was even put into use.

After driving forward for more than ten minutes, after a turn to the right, another explosion-proof door appeared in sight, which was also installed in reverse, but the door was locked.

At the first sight of this blast door, my nerves immediately tensed, and the picture that I had thought of immediately appeared in my mind: Could it be that some terrible change had really happened here, which caused the workers to flee in a hurry and the base to be abandoned from then on? Is there any danger hidden in it?

This explosion-proof door is very different from what I saw before, except for a slight rust on the faΓ§ade, there is a very thick engine oil in the shaft and turntable screw groove of the door, it seems that someone often takes care of it, and from the oil squeezed out of the gap, this door is estimated to be opened frequently.

I picked up a stick on the ground and picked up the oil on the door shaft to observe, the oil was obviously layered, the top was relatively clean, but the bottom was severely blackened and mixed with a lot of dust.

Seeing this, I finally put my mind at ease, since this door has been opened many times, there must be no danger in it, judging from the current situation, it is likely that Master Wei's people have closed the door, and their guess just now is purely to scare themselves.

"Officer Zhang, come and see here. It looks like the oil here should be added at different times, do you think it could have been made by your police?

Officer Zhang squatted beside me, also picked it open with a small stick, shook his head and replied, "It shouldn't be the police, we won't go into such a deep place." And you see, the oil of these shafts is wrapped in a lot of rust, which means that the bearings of this door were also rusted before, and they were reopened. ”

"Then it could only be Master Wei's masterpiece. Han Wei said before that ordinary people can't enter it, isn't that the door you are referring to? However, this is not something evil?"

"Don't make up your mind in a hurry, open the door and go in first, according to the map it shows that there should be a fork in the gate, and from here the tunnel becomes intricate, it is possible that he is referring to the labyrinthine tunnel inside. ”

"Brother Wei, Officer Zhang, take a look, this door latch is locked. ”

Hearing the wire's words, Officer Zhang and I got up and walked over, and saw that there was a lock on the turntable of the latch that was specially designed to lock the steering wheel, and the turntable was locked with the big steel rod on the iron door.

"Iron wire, what are you doing in a daze, open it. Can this still stump you?"

As soon as I said this, I saw a wry smile on the face of the wire, and it really showed the meaning of difficulty.

"Brother Wei, I really can't open this lock. If you look at the keyholes, they've all been welded to death, there's nothing I can do about it. ”

I looked down at the keyhole when I heard this, and it was true, the entire keyhole was welded to death with a welding torch, and the slightest gap was not exposed.

It seems that if the text is not good, you can only come to the martial arts.,This time I came here with a whole set of God of War armor.,In addition to the helmet.,The rest of the paper armor has been worn by me inside.,It was originally intended to be activated when approaching the core.,But looking at the posture in front of you, you can only use it in advance.。

I walked to the carriage and took out the helmet, sword, and shield of the armor, and then ran the divine power in my body to activate the god of war armor on my body.

Everyone else had seen my magical paper armor, so they weren't curious about my behavior, and they all waited quietly to see my paper armor turn into real armor.

In fact, they had asked me curiously about the secret of this armor before, but I couldn't tell the truth, so I could only make up stories to lie to them, one moment said it was a family heirloom, and another said that it was a treasure obtained in the barren mountain fairy cave, and after a few days, they said that it was because of the effect of the power of the desolation in their body, and after saying more than a dozen versions, they also understood that I was unwilling to tell the truth, so they stopped asking.

After waiting for about a minute or two, the armor on his body was activated, and the paper-like armor on his body turned into silver armor in the blink of an eye. Without saying a word, I raised the Sword of War and slashed at the door lock, cutting the lock in two.

Then I reached out and grabbed the disc and turned it gently, and then there was a series of metal collision sounds from the inside of the iron door, and after turning the disc to the bottom and pushing forward, the heavy blast door was slowly opened with a harsh metal friction sound.
