Chapter 120: The Secret of Coral City
"There are a lot of secrets under the city's underground."
Su Xia clasped her hands and said in a relaxed tone.
He pointed down and said, "Maybe you can find time to look down there, the bugs aren't as fragile as you think." β
"Looks like you know a lot of things."
The blue circle of light on Yu Tuo's face flickered slightly, and he did not deny Su Xia's words, there were indeed many secrets hidden under this coral city.
The importance of the more than a dozen small cities around it is not comparable to that of Coral City.
Su Xia reminded: "I think you should go down tonight to take a look, otherwise things may develop in an uncontrollable direction." β
"You and I are enemies, why do you want to remind me?"
"Because there are still thousands of humans in this city."
Su Xia's expression was calm, and after speaking, he turned around and flew away.
He exploded with all his might, and if he missed the string, he quickly disappeared into the vast night sky.
And Yu Tuo didn't chase it, but just slowly rose, overlooking the lights of the entire city, thoughtfully.
Moments later, he flew back to the cyborg base.
Located directly north of Coral City, the ground part of the base is like a sharp blade half-cut into the sky, the interior is mainly white, supplemented by a cool blue color, and huge transparent screens hang above the hall, and the data flow in the screen is like a flickering crystal lamp.
A variety of different models of machines walk around the base, some in human form and others in peculiar appearance.
As soon as Yu Tuo returned to the base, he instructed his assistant: "Take me down and give me a copy of the latest information." β
"Yes, please come with me."
The communication between machines is very convenient, and many things can be directly transmitted to the data.
The assistant was not humanoid, but an oval egg, the size of a basketball, silvery-white, suspended beside Yu Tuo.
He cleared the way for Yu Tuo in front of him, and together they came to an elevator deep in the base, removed the silver-white metal shell on the front, and flew to the elevator for identification.
A blue light swept over his and Yu Tuo's bodies, and then the elevator door opened.
"Please come in."
The two entered one after the other, and the elevator flew down.
There are many similar elevators in the mechanical base.
In addition to these vertical elevators, there are many passages that move horizontally or even diagonally underground.
These horizontal and vertical passages are like complex nests built by ants, connecting the entire underground into one, and ordinary people may not even be able to distinguish the direction when they enter.
"Dingβ"
The elevator doors slowly opened, and a chill hit me.
Before Yu Tuo stepped out of the elevator, he heard the wailing and low chirping of countless insects.
The underground space is huge, and the style of white and blue is intertwined, and there is no end in sight.
This is only one layer close to the ground, and there are layers of experimental areas below, like eighteen layers of hell, and the sound of those insects is like the howl of endless evil spirits in hell.
Many researchers, dressed in tight white hazmat suits, weave through the passages separated by the experimental areas, both human and automoc.
Among them, most of the Terran researchers wear special earplugs, which are used to block out the wails that drive them crazy.
After seeing Yu Tuo, the human director of this area immediately ran forward, with a humble smile on his face, and said, "Lord Yu Tuo, why are you here?" β
Yu Tuo's tone was indifferent: "If I don't come again, I'm afraid those insects will crawl out." β
"No, don't worry, adults!" The director laughed and said, "I patrol this area every day, and no bugs can hide from my eyes, they are all locked up, and none of them can escape!" β
"Really?"
Yu Tuo thought of Su Xia's words.
He has a lie detector system that can tell if a person is lying based on their heart rate, breathing, micro-expressions, movements, tone of voice, and other characteristics.
Although Su Xia was wearing a metal mask, Yu Tuo could tell that he was most likely not lying.
The Director cautiously asked, "My lord, the underground has been operating safely for many years, why are you suddenly worried about this?" β
"The Mask Geek asked me to take a look."
Yu Tuo disdained to deceive his subordinates and told the truth.
"Huh?"
The director was stunned for a moment, thinking that he had misheard.
He hesitated for a moment, then asked tentatively, "My lord, is that wanted masked monster?" β
Yu Tuo nodded: "Well, it's him." β
The supervisor was immediately aggrieved, but he didn't expect Yu Tuo to suspect him because of an enemy's words, so he said: "My lord, that masked monster must be lying to you, your time is so precious, you can't be fooled." β
"He doesn't need to lie to me."
"If something really goes wrong, the adults can just throw me and feed the bugs!" The supervisor swore an oath and vouched for Yu Tuo.
"Okay, take me to see it."
β¦β¦
When Yu Tuo checked the underworld, the whole of Coral City had been awakened.
The rumbling sounds of helicopters, firefights, and patrols alternate throughout the city, as if it were the night when the refugees revolted.
But Sanyu and the others are already safe.
Their escape network with sewers, ruins, secret strongholds, etc., played a key role.
In the city, the commanders of the various districts began to communicate with each other:
"What to do? Those rebels are gone! β
"Report to the Castle Lord, and then look around casually and make a show."
"Which lord will you report to?"
"This ......"
Because Qi Lang lost contact, Yu Tuo went straight back to the base.
Now Coral City has fallen into a very embarrassing situation.
Chai An, who was supposed to act as the city lord, was also gone, and the office was empty, so that all the news could only be piled up on the desk in a mess.
Qi Lang is naturally not dead, and the vitality of the third-level creature is very tenacious.
With a wave of his hand, Su Xia flew directly from the manor to the jungle on the side, breaking countless tree branches and slamming them on a fairly soft piece of land.
"Shhh...... Whew......"
Qi Lang felt that his whole body was about to be knocked apart, and the heart-rending pain made him almost faint.
But Zhao Si next to him kept howling miserably, and his voice was very penetrating, so that Yu Tuo couldn't help fainting.
Qi Lang endured the pain and scolded: "Okay! Don't scream if you're alive! β
Zhao Si wailed: "Pain! It hurts so much! β
Qi Lang listened impatiently: "If you scream again, don't think about going back to the management!" β
Zhao Si: "......"
It's finally clean.
But right now, a big problem is in front of the two of them.
After tonight's events, will they all be able to return to management?
Qi Lang didn't want to lose his current position.
Zhao Si didn't want to!
After he, a traitor, came to power, what he did could be said to be hateful, and he planted undercover agents in various families and forces, and once he was abandoned by the mechanical clan, those powerful people in the city would not let him go.
Even though the severe pain of his broken arms was still there, Zhao Si had to desperately calm himself down.
After a while, he was sweating profusely in pain, and said tremblingly, "Big ...... My lord, I have another way, I ...... Let's quickly contact the city lord of Yutuo and tell him this method......"
"We can't move now, and we're still contacting a fart!"
Qi Lang struggled hard, but still couldn't break free.
The heavy steel bars wrapped around the two of them layer after layer, like wrapping zongzi, I don't know how many layers have been wrapped.
At this moment, a light suddenly appeared in the distance, through the layers of trees and leaves, like the light of hope sent by angels to Qi Lang and the others.
"Who's there? Can you hear ME? I'm the lord of the city! β
Qi Lang hurriedly shouted, promised the other party a lot of money, and asked the other party to save him.
Soon, the light source was getting closer.
A footstep also came from far and near.
Qi Lang narrowed his eyes and finally saw the person clearly.
"Xiao Chai! How did you find here? He was overjoyed, "Come and save me, untie these damn steel bars from me!" β
"Don't worry, sir."
Chai An stepped on a dead leaf and arrived, and his tone was calm.
He wears gold-rimmed glasses and is well-dressed, but he has an old portable circular saw in his hand, which seems to be out of place for him.
Then, in a burst of sparks, the steel bars on Qi Lang's body were sawed off one by one.
When it was Zhao Si's turn, Chai An asked calmly: "Mr. Zhao, I see that your two hands are almost broken, or I will see them for you?" β
"Nope! No! β
Zhao Si exclaimed, looking panicked.
If the broken bones are still connected to the tendons, if they are sawn alive, what will the pain become?
"Okay then."
Chai An lifted his glasses, picked up the circular saw, and began to untie Zhao Si.
But I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, he would always accidentally cut a little bit of Zhao Si's flesh and blood when cutting the steel bar, causing Zhao Si to scream again and again.
Of course, Zhao Si knew that this secretary couldn't get used to him, but he had no choice but to endure it now.
After a while, Qi Lang next to him couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Xiao Chai, stop playing, time is pressing, we have to hurry back and find a way." β
"Yes."
Chai An smiled slightly and sped up.
When Zhao Si was finally rescued, he was already stained red with blood, as if he had just been fished out of the blood water.
But he didn't care about the pain, not even the dizziness of excessive blood loss, and said tremblingly, "Hurry up...... Quickly let me contact the City Lord of Yutuo...... I still have a way to ......."
That was his way to save his life, and it was also his last hope, and he would not use it until the critical moment.
But at this moment, under the tree not far away, a voice suddenly sounded that made Qi Lang and Zhao Si extremely frightened.
"What's the solution? I want to hear it. β
Su Xia leaned her back against the tree, her hands were environmentally friendly, and her face was calm.
Zhao Si trembled, and his last hope was shattered.
In this world, there is nothing more torturous than having hope and falling into despair.
"You...... You're here to kill me? β
"Yes, but it's not." Su Xia's expression was cold, "Someone will kill you." β
With a wave of his hand, the steel bars scattered all over the ground once again wrapped around Zhao Si's whole body, binding him firmly.
Then, Su Xia rose into the air and disappeared into the distance with Zhao Si.
β¦β¦
At this moment, Sanyu and the others had already joined the rest of the members.
There are a lot of people in the Zero Tavern, so their meeting point is in the Tavern, a hidden place.
This place is in the southwest corner of Coral City, under a ruin, once the basement three-story garage of a building.
None of the members of the North Wind Story Club were killed, and only a few were slightly injured.
This is all thanks to Su Xia's commotion.
"Okay, everyone's ready!"
"No, the mask hasn't come back yet......"
