Chapter 156: A New Journey (1)
Lisi originally thought that Liu Ergou was just a reckless man with no strength, but now that she thinks about it, whether it is the means to defeat the puppet guards, or the fact that she can make such a detailed inference based on her own observations, it all shows the delicacy of Liu Ergou's thoughts!
Such a character chose to settle in this northern plain? You must have taken a fancy to the freedom here and want to make a big show!
Maybe it's not bad to hug such a thigh?
Nodding approvingly, Drith immediately corrected, "It's not six, it's five." ”
Seeing that Liu Ergou was puzzled, Delisi slowly explained: "The original expedition team went all the way to the core of the base that produced the essence of life, and only found the departments corresponding to the five logos. ”
"In the area where each department is located, you can see black pipes of different sizes and numbers, and the pipes here are only black without special signs."
"So the expedition team speculated that the black corresponds to a garbage disposal facility."
"In addition, in the center of the base, there is another rotunda, which contains many very complex magic arrays."
"Even with the knowledge of the Grand Magus, he still can't understand the principles of these magic arrays; However, the archmagister deduced from some special design that the rotunda should be a dedicated teleportation area. ”
"In other words, when the base was still in operation, personnel entered and exited here through teleportation magic. When we came down, it was just a freight elevator. ”
"This also explains why it takes half an hour to open the door, which must be some kind of security measure. After all, the storage area is still very important. ”
"According to the log, this storage area is in the southwest corner of the base, and we have to walk a little further before we can enter the main part of the base."
After listening to Drissy's explanation, Liu Ergou also nodded.
Although limited by Liu Ergou's own level, Al could only give a map that roughly depicted the outline of the base, which was far less accurate than the topographic map provided on the surface.
But at least in terms of direction, the answer Al gave was consistent with the journal in Drise's hand. To the northeast of this hall, there is indeed another, much larger underground area.
It's just that, although it is the storage area of the entire base, it is surprisingly empty. Whether it was on the shelves or at the incoming and outgoing ends of the square machine, Liu Ergou and Drith didn't find anything of value.
And the few metal boxes scattered on the ground have long been empty. I don't know if it was taken away when the base was closed, or if it was looted by the original expedition team, and now only a little dust in the box remains.
This part of the record happened to be missing, so Drissy and Liu Ergou couldn't think about it for a while.
Passing through the rows of shelves, at the other end of the hall, is a very wide corridor.
How wide? Wide enough to accommodate eight Hoffmanns walking side by side here! It's not like a hallway designed for humanoids.
On the floor of the corridor, several parallel tracks are also laid. Liu Ergou and Dries exchanged opinions, believing that these tracks were specially designed to carry extremely heavy or extremely large goods.
Along the way, Liu Ergou and the three of them passed by several smaller rooms. The door of each room is painted with a yellow plumbing logo, which is the hallmark of the warehouse department.
Inside each room, there are several sets of tables and chairs of the same style, and there are also smaller shelves or cabinets along the walls.
In the corners of the room, there are indeed a variable number of black pipes.
Judging by these things, this should be the office of the warehousing department, probably the statistics department or something.
It's just that in these offices, Liu Ergou still hasn't found anything valuable. Whether it is on the desktop or in the drawers, or in the shelves and cabinets, Liu Ergou found nothing.
Even the various documents that should have existed here are nowhere to be found. Liu Ergou only found a few pinches of more or less dust in some drawers and cabinets.
And in an extraordinarily large office, Drith found the answer.
Unlike other offices, this room has only one set of extraordinarily large desks and chairs, which should be the exclusive office of the department head.
There are even several strange and beautiful containers in the corners, which are long cemented soil. Thinking about this person in charge, I liked flowers and plants very much back then.
The hardened soil shattered into dust at the slightest touch, slipping from between Drise's fingers. As the dust fell to the floor, several hidden vents on the side of the wall suddenly opened, blowing a light but long stream of air.
These air currents were purely inspired by the wind attribute magic, like invisible packages, enveloping the dust on the ground without falling at all, without scattering at all!
On the opposite wall, there are also several hidden vents, but at the moment these vents do not emit air, but are strong and silent, inhaling all the airflow wrapped in dust!
In just a few moments, the floor of the office was as clean as ever.
Looking at the scene in front of them, Liu Ergou and Delisi were a little dazed.
With their minds, they naturally immediately understood that the various documents originally kept in the room had been oxidized over thousands of years due to the fresh air circulating in the base, and finally turned into dust.
The dust had been completely wiped away by the unique cleaning measures just now, and only the drawers or cabinets were still a little uncleaned.
It's just that this cleaning method is really ......
In Liu Ergou's eyes, this is just like the aliens described in the science fiction works of the previous life, advanced and mysterious; And in the eyes of Dries and Tufaun, this is simply a miracle!
What kind of unbelievable realm has the ancient silver elves developed?!
However, there is one thing that is no different from the present. That is, like modern elves, ancient silver elves also like to carve beautiful and delicate openwork patterns on personal items.
Because of this, all kinds of containers in the office, including drawers and cabinets, are carved so that they leak on all sides, so naturally don't want to leave anything behind.
After figuring out this joint, Liu Ergou and Delisi glanced at each other, both a little discouraged.
Tufaun on the side didn't feel anything. Anyway, he's a martial artist, and he doesn't understand, and he doesn't want to understand these wonderful things that only the "mage masters" understand.
As long as the young lady is happy, then he doesn't care.
As for the possible problems? There is a smart person like Miss to think, why do you have to use your brain?
So at this moment, Tufaun was sitting in an office chair bored, stretching out in boredom.
"Ding!"
As he did, a small metal plaque fell out of the gap in his office chair.
