Chapter 393:  In the Dark (Part 1)


"Ah, it's so boring. Didn't it mean that there are biological weapons? It's okay to come out one or two to let me see and see."
Reggie's complaining sound resounded in the long and far-reaching corridor, and the young man yawned while holding the sword, looking uneasy.
"It's better not to encounter that kind of thing. But when it comes to the development of biological weapons, it should be before the proposal of the magic soldier transformation plan." Lucy said as he walked: "It was because the biological weapons development plan was stranded at the time. Turn to the development of magic soldiers. The facts have also proved that modified soldiers are much easier to control than biological weapons."
"Then this base exists for the development of weapons?" Allen stopped, the passage in front had collapsed. The and twisted metal that blocked the way formed a hill, so everyone had to change their way.
Belmode exclaimed: "I always feel like it has become a maze."
"In that case, it's not fun," Regis said.
Lucy sighed lightly: "The energy system of this base has not been completely cut off, so if biological weapons have been developed before. It is possible that these weapons are still active. If they hit a place like a maze, I don't think it will be. It's a pleasant thing."
"In short, find the control center first. Only after I reach the control center can I understand the functions of this base. After that, it is easier to find the queen or deal with the communication with the earth."
"But that's what I said, but now..." Allen stopped again, and not only the corridor, but also the walls and rooms on both sides disappeared. Appearing in front of them was a huge gap. Judging from the traces on the edge, it seemed that a terrible explosion had occurred, which exploded this place. Allen shook his head and said: "In this case, it does not seem surprising that the control center is destroyed."
"No, if the control center is destroyed, all systems related to it, including the energy supply, will stop. But now, it is obvious that the energy supply is still weak, so the control center must still be there!" Lucy was confident.
"Then I can only find a new way." Allen said as he faced the dim and empty space in front of him.
"Wait." Bellmode stopped them and pointed below the gap: "I seem to see something."
"Nothing, can you see things in such dark eyes?" Regis leaned over and looked at Belmode with a little suspicion.
Belmode pointed to himself and said: "I have received special training, especially to see things in a dark environment. As long as there is a little light, I can see the surrounding environment clearly."
"So what did you see?" Allen asked.
"It seems to be a very large column, about ten meters in diameter. There are many metal rods of different thicknesses at the top, and more of them are invisible." Facing the darkness, Belmode described it as above.
Lucy looked at him in surprise and said, "You seem to be talking about the Rubik's Cube energy furnace. In other words, we are right above the energy furnace."
"There has been an explosion here, but it didn't affect the energy furnace. It's really not a normal luck. So, do you want to go down and take a look?" Allen squatted down, and if you look carefully, there will be a regular light in the dark. Although faint, it really reflected the outline of a huge metal pillar. It's just that Alan can't see too clearly like Belmode.
"The energy furnace is located in the power room. As one of the most important areas of the base, I believe there will be a floor plan of this base in the power room. In that case, it will be much easier to find the control center." Lucy waved her fist. An energetic look.
"In that case, let's see if the rope is long enough. Belmode, can you predict the distance between us and the furnace?" Edward took off his rucksack and began to draw a rope from inside.
Belmode observed for a moment and said, "There is a vertical distance of less than 20 meters, but we are not above the energy furnace. The big pillar is about four or five meters in front of us."
"In that case, let's fix it here with a rope, and then swing it over with a rope." Edward said: "Belmod has the best eyesight in the dark, so you go first. After arriving safely, give us light. Positioning."
Allen took out Qianjun, tied the rope to the knife, and then plunged it into the ground next to it to fix it. Bel Modra pulled the rope, and after making a loop around his hand, he made an "ok" gesture. Then step back a few steps, determine the position, and then sprint. Leaping vigorously at the edge of the gap, he stretched his hands and feet, slanted forward and left like a big bat, and disappeared into the darkness in a blink of an eye.
There was only a sound of breaking through the air in the darkness, and a slight knocking sound came after a moment. Soon after, Belmode glowed with a dark red source of light, allowing everyone above the gap to see his location clearly. Next, they used the rope to swing over. Allen was the last one. After he fell to the top of the energy furnace, he pulled the rope forcefully, swayed Qianjun, and fell back into his hand together with the rope.
At this time, a few red lights lit up in the darkness above the gap. Allen said "Huh", and the red light disappeared into the darkness again, as if it was just his illusion.
"What's the matter?" Lucy asked.
"Nothing, there seemed to be an audience passing by just now."
"Audience? It shouldn't be those biological weapons."
"I don't know, but even those things can't jump at such a distance. Let's act and ignore them."
There is a well ladder on one side of the energy furnace, which extends to the bottom. This is where the power room is located. The power room is extremely empty, and the surrounding light is dim. Everyone stood on the energy furnace, feeling like being in the void. It didn't take long for them to find the well ladder, Belmode climbed down first, and everyone followed him one after another, and it was Alan who broke off.
When Allen and the others found the power room, Garner and his party were still shuttled in the maze-like corridor, and finally they hit a material transfer platform by mistake. The space is open here, and Jiana made a gesture, and the team is temporarily resting here.
Buss took off his rucksack and poured a pile of things from it. These are foods such as dried meat, but when the exhaust pipe is down, the food is soaked in the lake water, and the food looks unfavorable. He sighed and said, "I can only eat it."
Fatty Drew took a piece, chewed it hard in his mouth and said, "After I go out, I want to eat roast turkey!"
Jiana smiled slightly, and ate the soaked dry food. Hongye turned around and said, "There is an exit over there. We can get out there later. But Boss Jiana, I always find this ruin very strange. I have never seen a ruin made of metal. , And it looks very big, almost the size of an earl’s castle. In such a big place, what is hidden?"
"What do you mean?" Garner asked while looking at her.
Hongye smiled, smiling somewhat reluctantly: "I'm thinking, maybe there is nothing valuable in this ruin. You can see, we have turned so much, and the most we see is metal, and it is still rusty metal. This is a bit different from what we had previously expected. Don’t ancient ruins usually have to be associated with gems, gold, or precious works of art?"
"But there are only monsters and iron plates."
"So, is it better for us to retreat."
Jiana frowned and looked at the other people: "What do you say?"
"Hongye's instincts have always been accurate. If she retreats, would she feel something dangerous?" Buzz asked not to answer.
Hongye nodded: "Since I separated from those people, I always feel peeped. This feeling makes me creepy. It's too weird here. Boss Jiana..."
Suddenly, there was a strange noise in the darkness. It was like the sound of nails scratching the metal, and the sound came from the darkness in front of them. Hongye immediately stepped back and stood with everyone. She took out the two short blades behind her, lowered her weight, and assumed a fighting stance.
Jiana also threw away the jerky, took his giant sword and stood in front of the crowd, whispering: "Light!"
Buzz immediately flickered with his fingertips, and a few groups of electro-optical lights popped up over the heads of the crowd, condensing but not scattered. Through the electric light, Jiana saw a pair of feet. Then the owner of the foot appeared in the electric light, it was a woman. In other words, she used to be a woman, her abdomen was as high as a pregnant woman, but her head was hanging softly on the side of her neck, looking lifeless.
This is clearly a corpse!
The corpse suddenly fell on its back with a thump~EbookFREE.me~ No one knows how it moved just now. At this time, the clothing on the corpse's back suddenly split, and several sharp foot joints protruded from under the gray skin. The blade-like foot joints swept to both sides, tearing apart the muscles of the corpse's back. The next moment, an alien creature crawled out of it. It has a head like a dragon, without eyes and ears, and is covered with an exoskeleton.
Garner frowned and said softly: "Be careful, this is the monster Allen said."
The alien creature screamed at Jiana and others, and suddenly opened its mouth and spouted a burst of green water. Jiana and Hongye separated immediately, and then the two of them went around each side, and then circled and attacked the monster. The giant sword of Jana broke through the air, bringing up a thunderous roar, and a cloud of blood entangled on the sword, condensed into a sword light and charged straight. The abnormal response was flexible, and the arthropod flexed and flicked, then slipped away.
However, Hongye stuck it silently, swiping both knives together, pulling out a complex knife light. Then violently retreated, the alien suddenly fell apart and turned into a fragmented corpse.
The people breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, the sound of "puff puff puff" sounded continuously in the darkness, and it sounded like many alien creatures were breaking out of the parasitic corpses!
