Chapter 46: Go Deeper

"Are you okay Johnson?"

Cito helped Johnson up, his face almost contorted, and it took several minutes to get back to normal.

"I'm fine.... I'll be able to last a while after eating these anti-radiations, and I still have two bags of radinine in my bag..."

Sito took some duct tape out of his backpack and sealed the hole in Johnson's suit, but everyone knew that it did little to do anything.

Andy looked at Johnson's miserable appearance, and thought to himself that this matter had come to this point, and he would find a gold bar for eggs, and if he went down, he would be wiped out.

"Johnson, let's find a way out, if you continue like this, even if you find gold, you will definitely die below here, depending on the level of danger, even if the rooster can control it, he won't be able to get anything....."

"No ....."

To Andy's surprise, Johnson was still dead.

"I must go down anyway.... Bombie's life and death are unknown...."

So Andy had nothing to say, Johnson estimated that he had an unusual relationship with Bombby, since he didn't care if he would die below Andy didn't bother to persuade him, everyone had to take responsibility for their own choices.

Suddenly there was some sound of water behind him, and Andy looked back vigilantly to find that Sito was actually drinking black water.

β€œ....... What are you doing here? ”

Cito dropped his hand and spilled the remaining black water and licked his lips.

"I see Johnson tasted nothing, and I can't help but taste it.... Anyway, since I came down here, I feel more and more that black water is emanating.... Aroma.... I don't know how to describe that feeling, theoretically my nose is gone and I shouldn't be able to smell things, but I can feel it.... Smell? The water is really interesting and tastes like some kind of broth. ”

A series of descriptions made Andy's scalp tingle.

After about an hour, the black water became shallower and shallower, gradually reaching a depth of no more than ankles, and the three of them walked to the big hole that had exploded before, and at this time, the hole had been enlarged several times by the black water, and it was pitch black inside.

Looking back at Sito, the old and weak, and Johnson, the sick, Andy silently sighed and walked into the big hole.

About two or three meters deep, the black water had accumulated to waist-deep, and was still flowing in an unknown direction, and the surrounding walls and the parts above the head showed signs of the neat style of human architecture again, and through the light, you could see that the surrounding was a gray-blue corridor, with rooms on both sides.

There was a sound of falling water behind him, and it was Cito and Johnson who jumped down.

Johnson struggled to stand up, his body obviously began to become weak, radiation sickness will quickly reduce a person's stamina, and then the person will begin to fall into hallucinations and sensory disorders, hematomas and skin ulcers all over the body, with the current amount of radiation, Johnson will die soon after he is off the drug.

The more Andy thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and turned around and used the beep boy to illuminate the faces of the two people, Cito was almost a little bit excited now, even if he walked in this ghost place, he could still laugh from time to time, Johnson was even more strange, and kept saying that it was for Bombi to continue, but he usually didn't notice that he and Bombi had more interactions.

"I said, are we going to tell the truth again before we go down?"

"What.... Truth? ...”

Johnson gasped for breath as Andy saw that one of his eyes was bloodshot.

Sito looked around with a smile, his back straightened and his expression relaxed, as if he had returned to his own living room.

Hearing Andy's inquiry, he chuckled and turned to look at Johnson.

"Okay, it's better than just now, there are only three people left...... After a while, if the road is broken again, you have to rely on other people's beep boys to guide the way, you are all so virtuous, otherwise just say it. ”

Andy looked at these two people, obviously there was something he had been hiding from himself, after coming down for so long, he had always felt that the motives of these people were very strange, except for Lucas, who was quite normal, everyone else was in a posture of dying and going down quickly, and it didn't seem entirely reasonable to say that it was to get a gold bar and make a fortune.

Johnson hesitated for a moment, glanced at Cito, and then spat out a new statement.

"Actually, we really wanted to make a fortune in the beginning, Asley and Sito and I were active in the Mojave Desert to the west many years ago, and we found a terminal record left by the Antiquities Research Society of the Old World, which is said to have a glorious civilization in ancient times on the Mojave Desert, according to some ancient artifacts and local indigenous rumors..... The most striking thing is

In the frescoes, the ancients described a story about a god from outside the heavens who bestowed a sacred crown on the king. ”

"We can't find out where the remnants of that civilization are.... However, we found some other things in the records left by those researchers of the Old World, including that the ancient king once led his subjects to discover the so-called fountain of wisdom and life in the area where we are now, and what is even more interesting is that this clue was valued by a big capitalist before the war, and he even changed the name of his company to the Holy Spring Company, frantically collecting information and sending hired personnel to investigate the site..."

Andy looked around, and if it wasn't bad, this area was under the underground pipe gallery, which was not part of the Atlantis Spa design at all, and was a hidden underground complex..... Could it be that the so-called Holy Springs Company in Johnson's mouth has something unspeakable?

"They built the Atlantis Mansion, but this mansion is a faΓ§ade.... The real purpose is directly below the building, they want to occupy this mysterious ancient ruins for covert development, we have found some records.... The soul float chamber they developed was a sky-high price before the war, but it was amazing that it could quickly cure seriously ill users.... This shows that they did find something remarkable underground. ”

Andy frowned and looked at the two of them, and said in his heart that this unfolding was a bit magical.

"So you two went down here just to find the research results left behind by the Holy Spring Company? And what gold bars are completely a lie? ”

Cito smiled and picked up the conversation.

"Believe it or not, there's a vault here, but the hell knows where it is now, and the Atlantis Mansion is completely shattered... But in the underground research area of the Holy Spring Company, it should still be well preserved, and there should be a treatment facility developed by them using these unknown black springs underground.... Johnson is actually terminally ill, and if he doesn't find a way, he won't live long, I.... I'm more direct. ”

Sito raised his arms, his skin as ugly as a burn patient barely visible.

"Ever since I became like this, there have been insults, insults and even beatings everywhere.... A lot of people can't tell the difference between a berserk zombie and me, or they just attack me because I'm ugly.... What is the point of a long life span and extremely low physiological needs? I live almost endlessly from discrimination.... I want to change back to what I used to be....."

He walked up to Andy, almost like a different person.

"You're the fourth person besides Asley to know about this, what's the gold? In addition to giving life to those of the spring, there is something better hidden in its depths.... Come on, let's go down and look for them. ”
