"Someone is coming."
Lu Wen frowned and looked far away.
Wu Yu found that the direction he was looking was in no man's land, and felt doubtful.
His eyesight is not as good as Lu Wen, so he can only listen to Lu Wen's news.
"not human."
Lu Wen looked solemn.
The rickety figure in the distance was obviously a monster, standing in the raging wind and sand, looking at them as well.
The intention is clear.
"He was trying to lure us over."
Wu Yu also barely saw it.
Zero didn't seem to want to wait until everyone from the Executive Bureau arrived.
"I'll go, you wait here."
"go together."
Lu Wen did not stop Wu Yu.
Number Zero likes to use scheming and will express clearly what he wants to do.
If you really want to attack the two of them, just ambush a bunch of monsters here early. There is no need to bother to lure them there.
"There is something unusual at Zero. Wu Yu and I will go check it out first. You just need to follow the map I gave you." Lu Wen posted on the public channel.
"Be safe you two."
"It's better to wait a little longer. Ten minutes, ten minutes at most. We'll be here soon. If there are more people, we can look after each other."
"These media are really annoying, like a swarm of flies..."
Zero deliberately lured Lu Wen here for a simple purpose.
Expose the lair to him and clear Lu Wen's suspicion.
At least according to Jiang Xiaonian's analysis, this is the case.
But other possibilities cannot be ruled out. For example, No. 0 was in a bad mood and buried a pile of explosives in his factory. After everyone from the Executive Bureau entered, they detonated it...
This may be small, but it must be guarded against.
So Lu Wen decided to go and have a look first.
"There are no roads in the no-man's land, and the driving is very bumpy. The signal gets worse the deeper you go, and the automatic driving cannot be used. The steering wheel is hand-cranked, and it is very difficult to drive. How is your physical strength now?"
Lu Wen vaccinated Wu Yu in advance and told him to be mentally prepared.
"Stamina?" Wu Yu smiled faintly, "I've killed one before..."
"Okay, you said this."
"Did you say that? When?"
"Didn't you just kill an underage tiger?"
"Actually, what I just wanted to say was the underage black bear..."
"Next time you say it's an underage dragon, I'll believe it."
The two set out on the road one after the other.
Lu Wen drove ahead and tried his best to choose some better roads.
The monster just showed his face and then disappeared, which was considered to have completed the task of conveying the signal.
Yellow sand roared behind the car.
Wu Yu frowned, speeded up, and started driving side by side with Lu Wen.
"The dust behind your car is too big, I can't see clearly."
"I forgot about this..."
According to the map in the little painter's room, Lu Wen drove towards his destination.
In fact, that place is not very far into no man's land.
It's not an abandoned city either.
Just…
"A gas station?"
It seems that there used to be a road here.
But time buries everything.
Now less than half of the entire gas station has been submerged.
"There's a room over there."
A rusty gas station sign hangs from the roof.
The paint on the walls had been torn away by the wind and sand, and the house looked dilapidated and felt like it would fall down at any time.
Lu Wen calculated for a moment and came to a conclusion in his mind.
"Have you ever heard of underground cities?"
It seems that Zero's monster factory is underground, no wonder it has never been discovered.
"I've heard that another city in the south, Baker City, has a very famous attraction, the underground ruined city. I've seen reports on TV before."
Wu Yu understood what Lu Wen meant.
The two of them approached the dilapidated house slowly, one behind the other.
The door is made of wood and it can be seen that it was painted white before.
After so many years, it has not completely decayed.
"The door has been replaced. The previous door was already rotten."
Lu Wen made a simple judgment.
He gently pushed open the wooden door.
As expected, behind the door is a staircase leading downwards.
The criss-crossing steel pipes fixed in different parts of this small house have ensured that it has not completely collapsed over the years.
Many steel pipes have rusted and are covered in dark red.
"I'll go ahead, please be careful."
The biggest role of the bionic assistant is to walk in front of the human executive and block death when encountering danger or unknown situations.
Lu Wen was not Wu Yu's assistant.
The two of them are now at the same level, both are Level 2 Executive Officers.
But considering Wu Yu's safety, let him follow closely.
"Dong..."
Lu Wen stepped on the downward steps. The steps were welded with iron bars and made a dull sound.
The underground is very empty!
However, as soon as he took two steps, Wu Yu grabbed Lu Wen.
He frowned and his face looked a little ugly.
"There's a smell."
"What is the taste?"
The physical limitations of bionic humans are still too severe.
Lu Wen's body can recognize some common scents, but the effect is very poor. After all, machines cannot compare with humans in some aspects.
"ammonia."
Wu Yu slowly said this word.
"You exit first, I'll go down alone!"
Lu Wen looked solemn, realizing that something was wrong.
"No, you are an android and can easily be controlled by Zero. You need a human helper."
"Zero can't control me."
"There are no absolutes in this world."
Wu Yu didn't know Lu Wen's current situation and insisted on following him.
Lu Wenwen wanted to knock him out.
But considering Wu Yu's skills, it would be very troublesome to knock him out. Moreover, this place was full of dangers, so Lu Wen didn't feel confident about knocking him out and leaving him outside.
"Okay, let's go down together, remember to write a suicide note."
"When I entered the industry, I wrote my suicide note and bought high-density insurance. The beneficiaries were my parents."
I have to say that Wu Yu is also a ruthless person.
Act decisively.
In fact, the chances of the two of them getting out alive are very high. If Zero really wants their lives, he can just shoot them one at a time. It's simple.
This staircase is very long.
Winding and spiraling downward.
dark.
There were cold rocks on both sides and it was a little damp.
Unknown black moss clings to the stone wall.
Sometimes there are dim lights.
About five or six minutes passed.
This staircase has just come to an end.
At the end is a door.
The iron door is thick and cold.
"Stand aside."
Wu Yu nodded and retreated to the stairs.
Lu Wen took a deep breath. He could probably guess what was happening behind the iron gate.
He put his hands on the iron door.
"Squeak..."
The door slowly opened.
The bearings seemed to have not been lubricated for a long time and made a tooth-grinding sound.
A faint beam of light shines through the open gap on the dark steps.
Soon, the door was completely pushed open.
What catches the eye.
Dim light.
Huge dome.
The various murals on the dome are lifelike.
There are angels with white wings on their backs, and there are demons with horns on their heads.
On the left is undulating machinery.
The bronze gears alternate with steam, making a sound like the snoring of a sleeping mechanical monster.
On the right side are hanging androids.
Endless, spreading into the darkness without light.
The innermost part is a huge painting.
Brilliant lights illuminate the picture, which shows a slowly falling city.
"welcome."
The little painter sat under this huge painting.
Smiling, dabbing on the drawing board.
