Chapter 51: The Noisy Nightingale
Vomit!
As the depth deepened, Lu Yun felt a little nauseous for some reason, and it took a few retching sessions to alleviate the uncomfortable feeling.
It's definitely not because I'm too nervous, George Lu Yun, who was facing the uncontained at the beginning, didn't feel this way, this time it's just a daily matter within the company, how can I be so nervous that I vomit.
Lu Yun was glad that there was no one around, otherwise he would probably be seen as a joke.
"-12th floor has arrived."
The sound of the elevator's machine sounded at the right time, and behind the elevator doors, there was a depressing fortress made of heavy silver gray, and the blue ether lines outlined simple and beautiful lines on the ground and walls.
Lu Yun walked out and stepped on the territory of the -12th floor.
Here, as on Floor -2, there are countless circular aether doors loosely lined up, and simple displays hang outside, the only way to tell outside staff the details of the containment behind the door.
From the 11th floor onwards, the danger of the post-war anomaly has increased from F to E, which means that any anomaly behind these countless containment units can cause considerable damage to the outside world.
Lu Yun remembered that it was mentioned on the terminal that although the company had used some means to weaken the danger of the post-war anomaly, their escape would still bring varying degrees of losses depending on the level.
Containment of F-Class breaches is completely manageable, and in most cases, G-level and above personnel can resolve it on their own.
E-class containment breaches will cause minor damage, and can be quickly resolved by 1~2 D-class or more E-class if detected in time.
D-class containment breaches will cause a large number of casualties, and personnel must be mobilized as soon as possible to suppress them, and it is usually recommended to dispatch C-class or higher personnel to cooperate, and D-class and below are strictly forbidden to go to the breach containment floor.
Containment breaches of Class C must be immediately reported to the middle management of the production department, who must prepare a plan for the total elimination of all employees on the current floor.
After receiving the report, the floor where the incident occurred was sealed as soon as possible, regardless of whether there were any employees inside, and immediately applied for suppression by employees above grade B.
B-level or higher containment breaches are not displayed on the terminal, or there is no universal method, just an easy-to-understand sentence:
"Please use all methods to suppress the production department according to the abnormal actual situation after the escape from the war, and the statistics of casualties are meaningless in this case."
The danger of the "Noisy Nightingale" that Lu Yun is responsible for this time is E-level, and after facing the unweakened post-war anomaly "George" of the same level, Lu Yun feels that today's rotation work should not be difficult.
But after walking for a while, Lu Yun found that things were not simple.
“E-02-21… Where? ”
This -12 floor is as winding as the previous floor, and the numbers on the doors are not even arranged in order, Lu Yun can only look for them as he goes.
There was no way, Lu Yun could only ask the production department employee who happened to pass by him and was wearing a dark orange uniform to ask for directions.
"Excuse me, where is the E-02-21 containment unit?"
A production department employee who was walking hurriedly with a pile of documents was stopped by Lu Yun, his expression was tense, just like the other production department employees Lu Yun saw.
"Hello, are you a new employee? You can navigate the containment unit on the current floor by selecting it on the portable terminal. ”
Unexpectedly, Lu Yun, who still had a function on the watch, immediately lifted it to operate, and sure enough, he found the navigation option in the projection menu, and after clicking on it, he found that he was already very close to E-02-21.
"Excuse me, can I leave?"
Just as Lu Yun was about to leave after thanking him, the employee holding the document asked him.
"Of course?"
"Thank you."
This employee's attitude towards Lu Yun was incredibly respectful, and even made him a little confused.
Death squads.
This term suddenly popped up in Lu Yun's mind, the grassroots employees and management of the production department would not rotate, so in fact, those employees of the production department who were running back and forth between the containment units were all G-level employees without exception.
They are shiny authorized employees on the surface, and here, in the eyes of the company, they are just numbers, consumables that even F-class employees who are only one level above them can access at will.
The reason why he was so respectful to Lu Yun was probably because he was afraid that Lu Yun would let him do some rather dangerous work because of his inadvertent offense.
Looking at the back of the employee leaving, Lu Yun had a feeling that he had returned to the suburbs, the ordinary feeling of life and death like the alternation of day and night.
With a sigh, Lu Yun continued to walk in the direction of E-02-21.
……
"Noisy Nightingale, Hazard Class: E, Designation: E-02-21..."
Walking to the destination displayed by the navigation, Lu Yun read out the information on the monitor on the side to make sure that he had not gone to the wrong door.
After Lu Yun was sure that the one contained in it was the Noisy Nightingale, he used the portable terminal to scan the monitor, and after a drop, he was temporarily qualified to read the Noisy Nightingale's information.
This is something that every rotational producer must do before entering, as the containment method for each post-war anomaly is different.
If most subjects were forcibly weakened with echoes, not only would the containment process become extremely difficult, but the aether produced in the process would be much smaller, if not nil.
Therefore, the company stipulates that when carrying out production, every employee must strictly follow the containment methods summarized by the company for production and containment.
After a period of reading, Lu Yun silently recited the containment points of the noisy nightingale in his heart, and after confirming that everything was safe, he finally decided to step into the containment unit and start containment.
He didn't want to let his negligence kill many people on this floor.
Standing in front of the circular explosion-proof door more than 2m high, Lu Yun quietly accepted the identity confirmation before entering.
The blue light swept through Lu Yun's whole body from top to bottom, and after it disappeared, the mechanical announcement sounded:
"Employee Identity: Lu Yun, Clearance Level: E, Entry Activity: Production Ether, Scan Passed, Containment Unit Opened."
Countless gears and pressure valves rotated and loosened, and the unimaginably thick silver-gray gate opened a small slit in front of Lu Yun that could be passed through by one person.
Lu Yun did not hesitate and stepped forward.
"Entry confirmed, containment unit closed."
At the moment when Lu Yun completely entered the containment unit, the door was closed, leaving Lu Yun alone to stand in it.
The near-white containment unit was about the size of a classroom, and the blue of the aetheric loop could be faintly seen behind the brick cracks in the wall.
Each containment unit is to be closely monitored to ensure that any unforeseen situation can be dealt with immediately.
Lu Yun took a deep breath, kept his mind calm, and set his eyes on the other end of the room.
There, artificial greenery, ponds, meadows, and a large pot of yellow-brown wriggling bugs were the artificial oases that weren't supposed to exist in the containment unit.
On the white ground in front of the oasis, there was an abrupt wooden board****** and there was only one reason why the Division would place these things in this containment unit.
"Chirp!"
The incomparably pleasant cry seemed to be welcoming Lu Yun's arrival, and the owner of the containment unit had undoubtedly discovered Lu Yun's arrival.
Syllable.
A misshapen figure jumped from a tree, similar in shape to a human, only close to 2 meters in size.
The figure resembles a human from the neck down, with a torso and limbs, and on top of that, it wears a precious-looking black suit, even with a white lining and a bow around its neck.
Its hands were bare, one was extremely old, the other was as white as a maiden, its feet were wearing leather shoes, and a few brown feathers were exposed from its trouser legs.
And on top of all this, it has a head that resembles a real nightingale, and even the way it turns its head like a dropped frame.
It really looks like this...
When looking at the description of the appearance of the noisy nightingale outside, Lu Yun once thought that the person who recorded these was drunk, but now he had no reason to doubt it.
"Chirp."
Facing Lu Yun, the nightingale-like head opened its mouth and cried, and Lu Yun could see that its black hole mouth had two rows of teeth like a human.
Seeing that human organs should grow in places where they shouldn't have grown, Lu Yun felt sick to his stomach.
According to the process on the paper, after the cry to the containment is over, containment is about to begin.
Lu Yun controlled his pace and sat down on the wooden bench with a sense of ceremony, if he was too anxious at this step and sat down rudely, it would make it extremely difficult for containment and production in the future.
"Chirp, tweet."
The crisp cry was matched with the tone of the Chinese language, and Lu Yun felt an indescribable weirdness.
The noisy nightingale seemed to be satisfied with Lu Yun's demeanor, and then, with its 2-meter human body, it jumped to the basin full of tan bugs like a real bird, and pecked at a large mouthful of bugs.
Although it was some distance away, Lu Yun could still hear the sound of insects bursting in its mouth as it chewed.
It then jumped to the pond on the other side, washed the slurry from its beak and drank a few sips of water.
The anomaly did not need to eat after the war, and the Noisy Nightingale's behavior was nothing more than what it considered to be a ritual before containment began.
After completing the "preparation steps" on these materials, the noisy nightingale jumped directly in front of Lu Yun again, put the old hand on his chest, and raised his soft hand slightly over his head.
Lu Yun's expression was slightly solemn, staring closely at the noisy nightingale's bird's head.
As the information says, its slender beak is slightly open...
Here it comes!
"Chirp! Chirp tweet! Chirp tweet! Tweeted! Chirp! Tweeted! Chirp tweet! Tweeted! Chirp! Tweeted! Chirp tweet! Chirp tweet! ”
The slender beak opened to an exaggerated angle in an instant, even beyond the right angle!
And the sound coming out of that mouth is an extreme noise of more than 167 decibels, which is equivalent to putting a firearm to your ear and shooting continuously.
Noise of more than 75 decibels may cause permanent damage to the ear, although Lu Yun's whole body has been strengthened, but in the face of such noise, the eardrum is swollen and painful in an instant, and the tinnitus does not stop.
But Lu Yun had to show that he was enjoying it, otherwise the decibel level of the noisy nightingale would continue to rise, and no one knew what its limit decibel would be.
Previously, due to the need to rescue employees who had gone wrong in the previous steps, causing the noisy Nightingale to raise their volume directly, many G-class personnel from the production department wore earplugs and entered the containment unit.
This further increased the volume of the Noisy Nightingale, causing the rescuers to rupture their eardrums and fall unconscious, and the Noisy Nightingale directly breached containment, leaving a large number of unprotected staff outside the unit deaf, and some even dying.
Enduring the pain, Lu Yun made an expression of extreme enjoyment.
Even if the ether is used directly to create earplugs in the ear canal, this will also cause the volume of the noisy nightingale to increase, and the best way to do this is to rely on the reinforced eardrums of the E-class staff to hold them through.
With the physical fitness of E-class personnel, they will only be temporarily deaf after the end of containment, and will not leave permanent damage.
It's just that Lu Yun is not sure whether this is a comforting lie or not, and it has only been less than 5 minutes, and he feels that his head is about to explode.
And this is to complete containment, Lu Yun remembers that it was written in the data, probably...
It takes a full hour.
