Chapter 84: Journey to the Underworld

Five minutes later, the man in the suit led the two of them on the corridor to "Pluto", along the way Zhang Yuemei and Gong Piqing did not ask any more questions, he did not speak again, but as he got closer and closer to the door, the nightmare that had been buried in his heart for many years resurfaced like a mirage......

In fact, when Zhang Yuemei first mentioned the word "Pluto" just now, he immediately thought of that place, because he knew that the real Pluto was the farthest and coldest planet from the sun in the solar system.

The reason why he is so familiar with the past of the "Hades" is because he is one of the members of the team that witnessed the first side of the "Hades", he is the only survivor of that team, and he is also one of the few people who has witnessed the true strength of the "Hades"; He didn't say this to the two people behind him, not because it was a secret that could make him lose his head, but because it was the deepest and most terrifying nightmare in his heart over the years-

That year, when the research institute discovered the "Hades", he was just an ordinary D-class employee, to put it bluntly, he was a temporary worker who did chores and moved things, and coincidentally when he came in just in time for the lack of people in the institute, so he was also sent to the task of excavating the underground cave.

At that time, the research institute had just detected through sonar that there was a huge space under their feet, they didn't know what was inside, they planned to use this natural underground space as a secret room to store confidential documents, so they went vertically from the top of the cave, and the excavation team only found out after entering the underground cave that there was actually a person inside!

The man in the suit was one of the first diggers to enter the cave at that time, and he was also the only one in the institute who survived; When they found Hades, he was sitting cross-legged on a flat stone in the cave, as calm and dignified as an old monk sitting in meditation, and even if their group of invaders violently broke it all the way in with various tools, they could not wake up Hades.

At that time, there was a public opinion boom about Hades in the institute, some fantasists who love novels and movies think that it is a monk from ancient times, some people think that it is the legendary thousand-year-old corpse king, and some say that it is an immortal family who is crossing the catastrophe, anyway, all kinds of people say something, but no one says that it is an ordinary person, after all, there is no food and drink in it, the temperature is still very low, and the whole cave has no entrance, can that person still be born from the stone?

But he was just a part-time worker for the research institute, and this mysterious person who appeared from the underground cave for no reason was not sitting here to protect anything, because there was nothing but stones in this cave, so they tried every means to wake him up, but to no avail, and then they acted impartially and prepared to hang this guy out of the cave with a rope, and at the same time transport the "confidential documents" that were ready to be stored here, but none of them thought that when those containing " The guy woke up when the huge iron box was brought down from above.

From then on, the catastrophe of the excavation team came, and the Immortal King still sat motionless on the stone, but his hand seemed to give an order to absolute death in the area ahead; The places he pointed at were as if they had been cut by a machete more than ten meters long and several tons in weight, and the iron boxes containing "confidential documents" were instantly destroyed, unrestrained by the uncontrolled infected people imprisoned inside, and unscrupulously slaughtered everything around them.

The "confidential documents" that were clearly said to have become monsters that can only be found in post-apocalyptic movies suddenly became terrifying, and the members of the excavation team were immediately frightened, and they fled in all directions, scrambling to return through the road they came from, but none of them succeeded, only the man in the suit was frightened by the huge wound on the abdomen of those out-of-control infected people and stood in place for I don't know how long, and finally, an uncontrolled infected body who originally wanted to kill him was attracted by a digger who ran past him and was covered in blood, A tiger leap stepped over his head.

If the diggers hadn't huddled together to grab the ladder, there might have been a few others who would have survived, but none of them managed to climb the ladder, except for the man in the suit who stood in place, knocked out by an uncontrollable infected body weighing a ton of water, but the target of the infected body was not him, because he was not injured and did not smell of blood.

In this way, he was knocked unconscious by the out-of-control infected, and he just remembered that before he finally lost consciousness, the Hades struck again, like a skilled puppeteer, manipulating the invisible energy waves in the air, blasting one infected body after another, and at the same time, the other infectes had a premonition of the coming crisis, and they became even more violent under the stimulation of blood, and they roared and rushed towards Hades......

He had kept this in his memory of the battle, and then he woke up from the pile of corpses, and the staff who had come to deal with the battlefield had thrown him as a dead body with the bodies of the other excavators, and he crawled out of the mountain of corpses and asked them what had happened here, and why had everyone died? Why am I still alive and who killed them......

But the ones in front of him were just a group of staff who came to the aftermath battlefield, and they didn't know anything about the questions he asked, until later, after he was sent to the research institute, an A-level official of the research institute found him and said that he knew too many secrets that he shouldn't know, but the research institute didn't want to do anything harmful, he was just an excavator, and he shouldn't die like this, so he successfully became a regular employee in the research institute, from a D-level who did odd jobs to a B-level project manager......

But now, the nightmare had been dug up again, and he walked down this slightly familiar corridor, as if all of a sudden he had gone back to the old days, he was still the same D-class digger, with a pickaxe and shovel in hand, surrounded by his digging teammates, but no one knew that they were actually on a path to the underworld......

His path of memories finally came to an end in front of a very small iron door, and it took him a few seconds to distinguish between reality and the past, when they came with digging tools, the iron door here was still the rusty old iron door, to be precise, an iron sheet placed vertically; Now, it is disguised as a normal office door, which also has a proper house number and keyhole, but the real hardness of the door makes it resistant to frontal bombardment from RPG-7 individual missiles.

With a long sigh, he pulled a key out of his pocket and inserted it into the keyhole, opening the iron door that sealed the nightmare that had lingered in his life.

"Mr. Zhang, I can see that you have something on your mind, now that we are all grasshoppers on the same rope, I hope you don't play any tricks." Zhang Yuemei stood behind the man in the suit, watching the man in the suit twist the key unhurriedly and in circles, and his slow movements were like those traitors who were waiting for the support of their teammates......

"Before we go in, I just want to say that you may not know what's hidden inside, but the temperature inside alone can kill a person in a matter of minutes, and I hope you two think twice." After the man in the suit finished speaking, the iron door suddenly opened, and a cold wind like blowing from hell immediately poured out from the crack in the door, blowing Gong Piqing and Zhang Yuemei subconsciously raised their hands to block their faces, and even the man in the suit standing behind the door couldn't help but shiver.

But he didn't hesitate, and instead took out the key to the cellar door inside from another pocket, Zhang Yuemei stood beside Gong Piqing, and after giving him a meaning with her eyes, she asked softly, "Is what he said true?" You know what? ”

Gong Piqing thought for a few seconds, first nodded, and after Zhang Yuemei put his mind at ease, he shook his head again.

But the man in the suit had already entered the secret room behind the iron door, and stopped as if he had seen something terrible.

"So do you say yes or no?" Taking advantage of this gap, Zhang Yuemei asked again.

But this time, it was Gong Piqing's turn to stand on the ground with the man in the suit in a daze, because when the door opened, what appeared in the dark room was a pile of moon-white scales and some hairs that tended to be light blue.

"It's over...... I forgot to pack these things up that day...... Gong Piqing helplessly supported his forehead, but unfortunately before he finished speaking, he was frightened by the queen's order and shut up.

"Shut up! Even your commander has said that he is only initially complying with your requests, and who knows if he will be playing your word for it like a spy? If you're so talkative, I'm afraid you won't be able to wait for him to talk, and you'll already have all the secrets on your side! ”

Gong Piqing scratched his head in embarrassment, and went over to help the man in the suit kick the scales and hair aside, meaning to make it easier for the man in the suit to open the cellar door under him.

All this is the same as the last time Gong Piqing came, but the difference from before is that this time Gong Piqing finally didn't have to let the system help him open the "Shadow Escape" skill to enter through the wall, and the man in the suit and Zhang Yuemei also listened to the sound of the lock cylinder popping open from the cellar door with a layer of silver frost attached to it......
