The center of the Forgotten City.
In the huge steel house, high-end intelligent computer equipment was lined up side by side. Many people wearing pure white suits and nameplates with the font of Xita Bio Heavy Industry on their chests were busy inspecting the surveillance images fed back from various areas.
The scenes of forests, wilderness, crowded steel streets, narrow alleys, etc. on the huge island are constantly refreshed.
The entire giant island can be seen in this giant monitoring room, without any privacy.
At this time, sitting in the command chair of the center was a middle-aged blond man in a white suit.
The man had an angular face, sparkling blue eyes, and exuded a dangerous wild-animal aura, giving people a suffocating feeling of oppression.
"Master Matak, relay line 74 has been repaired, and the personnel in charge of that area have been sent to the lab as atonement for their actions."
A man in a white suit, a white tie and a mysterious look in his eyes reported respectfully.
At this moment, all the busy staff nearby couldn't help but tremble, as if they heard something terrible.
Matak stood up with his hands on the armrests and said very seriously.
"Buckley, tell me, why did our Xita Bio-Heavy Industry Company spend so much money and material resources to build this huge experimental base here?"
Barkley said solemnly.
"Everything is for the foundation of the supreme plan of eternal life."
"That's right, everything is for the Immortality Project. We are so honored to be a part of this great project. I will never allow any mistakes to occur during the research and development period because of your stupidity."
Matak warned coldly.
"Lord Matak, I promise this won't happen again."
"That would be the best. We'll process the death in the line of duty procedure for that guy."
"no problem."
Buckley responded respectfully.
You should know that Xita Bio-Heavy Industry is one of the top ten capital companies of Lanmeng.
Abbreviated as Shibenyi, its industries span many industries including biopharmaceuticals, weapons, and heavy industry.
The forces are intertwined and serve the Blue Alliance but are not controlled by it. At the same time, they have a strong influence on the Blue Alliance Senate.
His active presence has always been behind the changes in the leadership of the Blue Alliance over the years.
Just then a staff member received the uploaded video data. He opened it and took a look, then quickly stood up and reported.
"Report! An abnormal intruder was spotted in the forest area numbered S2391."
After hearing this, Barkley walked straight to the monitoring desk and said calmly.
"Replay the video."
"yes!"
The operator then proceeds.
On the display screen, five figures can be seen walking past.
"Going back frame by frame!"
Buckley instructed ably.
"yes!"
The staff took action immediately.
Soon the video began to rewind, and Barkley looked at the rewinding video and then spoke.
"stop!"
At this moment the picture froze, and the profiles of Shen Qiu and Chen Ye could be clearly seen. As for Qi Dong and the others, they could not be seen clearly due to the angle.
"Perform data matching."
Buckley gave instructions expertly.
The operator then matched the database, and in just a dozen seconds, the information popped up.
"Shen Qiu, male, non-staff member of the Red Alliance KPI."
"Chen Ye, male, non-staff member of the Red Alliance KPI."
…
After seeing the exact results, Barkley walked straight to Matak and reported respectfully.
"Five members of the Red Alliance broke into the island, and the identities of two of them were exactly matched. They are KPI members of the Red Alliance."
"Tell the military to send a team to capture them. Remember to capture them alive. This will be just enough to replenish our test subjects."
Matak gave the order coldly.
"Understood. I'll arrange it right away."
Barkley lowered his head and responded respectfully.
…
…
The outskirts of the Lost City.
Shen Qiu and his four companions finally arrived at the edge of the city, and they immediately smelled a mixture of rusty steel and salty sea breeze.
The five people walked in along the narrow street.
There are steel box-like houses on both sides, with a very high density. Even if there are alleys between the houses, they are very narrow and can only accommodate one person to walk normally.
You can also see a lot of box-shaped houses with identical houses stacked on top of them, and a steel ladder installed on the side so you can climb up and down.
Shen Qiu and the others saw that some of the doors of the houses were not closed. They looked at each other and walked into the houses tacitly to check.
The house was filled with various old items, covered with dust and moss.
These items should be furniture or something like that. Shen Qiu and others spread out to check to see if they could find anything valuable or any information.
"Boss, these things have strange shapes, what are they used for?"
Chen Ye said as he looked at a strange iron-shell appliance that was shaped like a round barrel.
Shen Qiu took a glance, then looked at the uneven rock table and said.
“I don’t know.”
Yun Xiaoxi said happily at this time.
"Shen Qiu, look what I found."
Shen Qiu turned his head and saw Yun Xiaoxi holding a gray pearl necklace in her hand. The whole necklace was glowing faintly.
"Don't hold it in your hands, throw it away, the color isn't right."
When Yun Xiaoxi heard Shen Qiu's words, she threw it away.
At this time, Bei Kairen came over and said with a metal book in his hand.
“Can anyone understand?”
"no."
Chen Ye and his companions were shaking like rattles.
"I'll try the bracelet."
Shen Qiu then raised his bracelet to scan the metal book in Bei Kailun's hand, and Xiao Qi popped up a prompt.
“Not included, no matching data, unable to translate.”
Looking at the result, Shen Qiu shook his head.
Upon seeing this, Bei Kailun threw the metal book in his hand aside.
…
A few hours later, Shen Qiu and others were walking on the street. They explored many iron box houses, and basically the things displayed inside were the same.
The houses in this peculiar city are all densely packed upwards, so although the streets are intricate, the overall trend is to extend upwards.
At this time, the surroundings were very quiet and the entire abandoned city was extremely desolate.
"Shen Qiu, I don't know why, but I feel so depressed. I didn't have this feeling when I explored other destroyed worlds before."
Yun Xiaoxi looked around and spoke in a low voice.
Shen Qiu's expression changed slightly, and he began to explain.
"Because these buildings are too densely packed together, and the space inside is very narrow. To put it bluntly, they are even crampeder than pigeon coops. You can imagine what the scene would have been like if the original inhabitants had lived here before the destruction of the original inhabitants."
Qi Dong followed Shen Qiu's instructions, imagined it in his mind and said with a somewhat unnatural expression.
“It feels so crowded and oppressive, like a prison.”
"It's a prison, and it's worse than a prison. After all, there's at least a time limit for being in prison, and there's only the vast ocean and this island nearby. I might be trapped here for the rest of my life."
Shen Qiu said in a calm tone.
