Chapter 436: Returning Home (3)
A large mass of cold breath slapped against Su's face, and the breath came from the depths of the crack. Along with the cold air came the wind, and the wind with a slight humidity ruffled Su's hair. But Su's eyes were as bright as electricity, as if he was about to break through the darkness and go straight into the abyss. However, apart from the granite layer visible above the crack, further down is pitch black.
The rift opened like a large mouth of the earth, devouring light and life. It is oblique on both sides, like a "V". Now, at the edge of the crack, soldiers drive a 2-inch-wide retaining ring into the ground to tie a safety cable to facilitate rescue work deep into the crack.
The rescue has been carried out for a day and a night, but the progress of the work is not happy at all. The crack was too deep, and the length of the safety rope was only about 500 meters, making it impossible for rescuers to descend to the deepest part of the crack. In the meantime, Brown went down in person, and even untied the safety rope and searched down for about 100 meters while the stratum was relatively stable.
Below, Brown saw the fast-flowing river and the mutant fish that sprang out of the river from time to time. Seeing this, Brown had no choice but to turn back. According to his understanding, even the people and the car fell into the depths of the crack, whether it was Zero or Beonlis, their chances of survival were very small.
Ke Su didn't believe that Zero was dead like this, she firmly believed that Zero was still alive. Lian Su doesn't know when this belief was established. That was probably a kind of confidence that Zero gave her, after all, there were several great dangers, and everyone thought that Zero was dead, but he still reluctantly walked back from the death line.
Since yesterday's accident between Zero and Beonlis, Brown has become the interim commander. He first sent the Black Rose soldiers back to Asgard in order to report and bring reinforcements. The personnel from the zero side stayed behind and carried out rescue work first. However, they lacked the necessary rescue equipment and instruments, which made the work unsatisfactory.
Today, at Su's suggestion, Brown knotted the two safety ropes into one, and guaranteed a sufficient length. Su, on the other hand, plans to go to the bottom of the crack by himself, or even sneak into the river. Only she, the destroyer, dared to enter the dangerous river, and as soon as ordinary soldiers entered the river, they would probably be divided into corpses by the mutant fish.
"I still don't recommend it. Brown frowned and walked over and said, "Tie the two safety cables into one, the length is enough, but the joint part may break due to an accident." Besides, you don't have the relevant diving equipment, and you can dive to the surface of the water by your own quality. It's better to wait for reinforcements from Asgard, what do you say, Su?"
Su shook his head and said resolutely: "We can wait, but we can't wait, if he is still alive!"
Brown scratched his head and said, "Why don't you let me go down." β
"No, your abilities don't work in the water at all. And I, at least half of it. Su pulled out his heavy sword that was stuck diagonally into the ground and strode towards the safety rope.
Brown knew he couldn't stop the woman, so he had to follow her and shout at the soldiers to do a good check. But at this moment, a scout came running out of breath, pointed to the other side of the crack and said, "Sir, there are people there." β
Hearing this, Su took the telescope directly from the scout's hand and immediately looked at the opposite side. The telescope bobbed back and forth, eventually stopping. Through it, Su saw two figures walking out of the abandoned town where he had rested yesterday, one of them seemed to have found Su, he raised his hand and waved, who is it not Zero?
"Quick, get around the cracks. I knew my head was still alive!" Su shouted, her face swept away the gloom and she smiled like a bright sun.
"They seem to have spotted us. β
Watching an off-road vehicle start up on the other side of the crack and plan to drive around the crack, Zero smiled at Beonliz.
After spending the night in the white blood cell base, they were personally escorted away by Kod this morning. The real way to survive is not the repair passage of the water purification unit, it is just a bait released by Kod, in fact, the front end of the passage is safe, but if someone really drills into it, then when he arrives at the emergency passage, he will find that Kede has prepared many research fellows in it.
Evasion can kill all the derivants, but the end of the passage has been sealed, and it is also a dead end that cannot be exited.
The real way to survive is an elevator shaft in the biochemical area, the elevator has been broken off by Kede, in order to facilitate climbing, Kede installed a fixed bracket in the wall of the elevator shaft. Although this is the only way to survive in the base, it is in Kod's lair. Even if someone finds out, it's easier said than done. If it weren't for Zero's core in his hands, the Doctor wouldn't have exposed this passage.
But even so, climbing vertically in an elevator shaft is not an easy task. There is no problem with zero nature, but with Beonrith's perennial physical strength, it can only climb to the exit. Leaving through the exit, Zero and the two found themselves back in the town where they had rested before. Thinking about it this way, this small town built on the surface may have been a kind of cover for the white blood cell base.
And after leaving the town, as expected, they still never left.
It's night.
Looking at Beonlise's sleeping face, Zero kissed it lightly before turning around and leaving the field tent. A campfire was lit in the makeshift camp, and a dozen or so soldiers on duty were walking back and forth to patrol the camp's security. Zero and they had to stay here for a few more days, and after meeting up with Su and Brown, Beonliz wrote a handwritten letter to bring back to Casillio, the butler, in order to bring in a fully enclosed command vehicle.
Only this special vehicle, completely insulated from external influences, can bring back Dr. Kode, who is still in the base of white blood cells. As the host of Z matter, Dr. Kode himself has the ability to approach the ninth order, and he can produce a corps of derivants with an average level of around the eighth order, which is already a huge combat force. What's more, Dr. Kord himself is an expert in weapons and precision mechanics, and Zero is lacking in talent.
The addition of Kod will make the foundation of the Kingdom of Zerona even more stable.
"Don't you take a break?"
Su's voice sounded, and when he turned around, he saw his old friend throwing a can of beer at him. The beer was bought when he left Pavarich, and Zero was not polite, and took a big sip with the pull tab down.
"It doesn't taste great, but it's fresh, and I've heard that they make it from wheat grown by themselves. Unfortunately, this time I was in a hurry, otherwise I would have liked to see what the paddy looks like, as mentioned in some books in the old days, when the autumn harvest is made, you will see a golden wave of wheat. Su sat down and sighed: "The current surface is completely unsuitable for planting, and the soil after artificial pollution can only be cultivated in an environment such as a closed environment or an underground base." I sometimes wonder if this earth is dying. β
"Nothing lasts forever, people die, and planets die. It's just that compared to people, the lifespan of the planet is almost endless. Zero sat down next to him: "The past cannot be changed, all we can do is create the future." If we want to see the earth full of rice, we first have to overturn the existing shili framework of this era. Then we will integrate them and set a direction to improve the environment of the entire planet and create a world where ordinary people can live freely. In that case, we may be able to see the beauty of the scenery that only the old days could see. β
"It's not an easy road, is it?" Su smiled.
Zero nodded: "It's hard to walk, and you can't even see the end." β
"No matter how hard it is, don't even think about leaving me. Berrien's voice suddenly sounded from behind Zero, and he sat down and said seriously: "Don't forget to owe me money, you have to give me life before you pay off all your debts!"
Brown also came out of the tent at this time, and shouted, "I said why you didn't sleep in the middle of the night, so you secretly hid and drank." Head, you're not interesting enough. β
Zero smiled and tossed the beer to Brown. The latter took it and poured it into his mouth, and drank it all. Looking at Brown and the others, Zero considers himself lucky to have a reliable group of comrades. Each of them has their own different attachments and dreams. And in Zero's blueprint, there's plenty of room for them.
So they are willing to stay with Zero, just like this time, even if there is no life and death, they have never left. And such a comrade-in-arms and partner, Zero believes that as long as he continues on this road, he will gain more.
Five days later, Casirio arrived with Beonlise's assigned command vehicle. The old butler couldn't sleep until he saw Beonise again, and Casirio was completely relieved when he heard Beonlise fall into the big crack.
Next, in the evening, Zero brought Kode out of the white blood cell base. Seeing this armored command vehicle, which can completely isolate the outside world, Kod shows a fanaticism for the professional field. For one night, he pestered Casirio to consult on the structure, systems, and armament of the armored vehicle. For Kode, this new-age chariot was an unparalleled attraction for him.
It was only in the morning that the convoy departed for Asgard. In the car, Zero was thinking about things by himself, while the two old men, Kode and Casilio, continued to discuss the chariot. Beonise sat down next to Zero boredly and said, "What are you thinking?"
"Do you know the town of Beaford?"
Beonise wondered, "A town in the wilderness, why do you ask this?"
"I met a killer who said he was from the town of Beaford. Moreover, he showed a strong hatred for me, which I was curious about and cared about. Zero looked at the outside of the car displayed on the light screen on the wall of the car and said, "And this earthquake, don't you think the time and place of the earthquake are too coincidental? β
"If you need it, I'll have someone check it when I get back, and I'll give you the information then." β
Zero nodded, and he didn't speak again. In fact, he was thinking not only about the Kim from Beaford Town, but also about his own Quaternary super life clone. Zero is strange, and Agladis, who is the will of the earth, has no reason not to know about such a thing. More likely, Agradis found him because of his identity as a clone. But he weishenme does not tell his identity, what is he going to hide?
It's a pity that Agradis is not human, and even if Zero wants to ask him for clarification, he can't find it.
Agradis, the star beast Prosius, the Quaternary super life, and the clone of themselves. It is as if there is an invisible rope connecting the four of them. Zero couldn't help but think, where would the super life be now?

He appeared in a crowded hall.
The hall is designed in the style of an ancient Roman drama theater, with a huge curved dome and intricate stone carvings around the edges. The celestial vault is supported by four grayish-white rock pillars, on which are carved sculptures of Roman gladiators. The floor is made of black and white marble tiles that look like a giant chessboard, and the people walking in the hall are naturally chess pieces.
This is not a lavish hall in reality, in fact, at this moment in the new era, it is estimated that this kind of ancient Roman style architecture no longer exists. This is a virtual shijie built by an electronic laser jishu, and through a specific nerve signal transmission terminal, people can instantly reach this place in various places like him.
This is a virtual information hall opened by the Dark Merchant, and guests can enter this virtual shijie through the terminal to post messages or make virtual transactions in the lobby.
He tightened his long trench coat and walked towards the reception desk with his head down. On the reception desk is a blonde hottie who is the receptionist, a virtual image of a real person in the lobby through a terminal device. Don't look at this woman is beautiful, but in reality, she may be fat and ugly. After all, considering the issue of privacy, the terminal device has the function of adjusting or even reshaping the image.
"Is there anything I can do to help you, sir?" said the receptionist, smiling sweetly.
He took out a pocket-sized laser generator from his trench coat pocket, pressed a green button on it, and the generator immediately popped up a small light screen. A perfect hexahedral diamond rotates slowly in the light screen, and there is a flowing golden brilliance in the center of the diamond to form a number.
The receptionist suddenly straightened up, which was the identity of the guest. The diamond represents the VIP level, while the 5 is its number. VIPs with diamond status are only 10 people in the Dark Merchant's hierarchy. These people usually use the information terminal to communicate directly with Hades, the leader of the Dark Traders, and rarely come to the information hall.
"Dear Guest"
He raised his hand and interrupted the receptionist, "I know what you want to ask? I'm in a complicated situation right now, and I can't use my old terminal to meet Mr. Hades directly, so I can only go around in circles." Please inform Mr. Hades for me, I have an important deal to negotiate with him!"
