As the generator started, the lights in the underground camp came on and the heating equipment started working again.
I felt a warm breeze blowing around me, and the elevator button lit up. It made a buzzing sound and slowly rose to the ground.
After a while, Nie Qingwu and the other four took the elevator to the underground camp.
Jiang Yuxin said with a relaxed look: "It's so cold underground, I'm so lucky to have air conditioning."
Lan Ling'er looked around the spacious underground camp hall and said in surprise, "It's so warm here. It's freezing cold up there, but warm as spring down there. It's really a different world."
Nie Qingwu, however, did not feel relaxed at all and walked towards a room next to the distribution room.
With the help of the light, Ye Feng checked the building structure diagram in his hand. That room was the monitoring room of the entire camp. The surveillance video that Nie Qingwu showed him was the video on the video server in the monitoring room.
The video was later interrupted, and Nie Qingwu and his team lost contact with the camp.
The first thing Nie Qingwu did when he arrived at the camp was to restore contact with the outside world.
Although the power supply was restored, several surveillance probes on the large screen in the monitoring room were still blank, obviously those probes were damaged.
"Brother Ye, what did you find after you came down?"
"It's the Ice Souls. They might have attacked here and frozen everything."
"Did you see anyone?"
Nie Qingwu's eyes were full of anticipation; she hoped there were survivors here.
"No, I didn't find anything here except us."
Xiao Liu asked in confusion, "Doctor Ye, we have more than a thousand square meters here, with dozens of rooms. You didn't even check other rooms. How do you know we're the only ones here? We still have at least a dozen people left here. Even if they died, they should have seen the bodies."
Ye Feng shook his head: "Although I didn't check those rooms, my mind has checked every place here, and I didn't find anything."
Nie Qingwu smiled and helped Ye Feng explain: "Xiao Liu, Brother Ye has extraordinary telekinesis. You are only a ground-level ancient warrior, so you don't understand Brother Ye's abilities."
Xiao Liu seemed to understand something: "So that's how it is. I heard from Elder Du that Doctor Ye is not only the best in the world in terms of martial arts, but also has unparalleled telekinesis. Today I finally got to see it for myself."
Jiang Yuxin also squeezed into the monitoring room. After hearing what Xiao Liu said, she smiled disapprovingly and said, "Brother Ye is the Supreme Ancient Martial Arts Master. He has a lot of stuff. What you saw was just one of his small skills."
Ye Feng smiled bitterly. Although Jiang Yuxin seemed to be praising him, it sounded a bit awkward.
Xiao Liu didn't believe Ye Feng's words and didn't move. He said that he had checked all the rooms. Although his telekinesis was amazing, there might still be some fish that slipped through the net.
He quickly checked all the rooms, including the bathroom, and found that it was just as Ye Feng said, there was no one there, not even a corpse left.
"Captain, this is so strange. Dr. Zhang and the others are gone. There is no sign of a single person."
Nie Qingwu carefully checked all the places, with a puzzled look on his face: "There is no blood on the ground, only traces of freezing. I hope they are all still alive."
The underground camp became warmer, with icy water everywhere and bluish-white sliding marks, which were the marks left by the movement of the ice spirit.
Ice Soul is the incarnation of spiritual energy absorbed by ice for tens of millions of years. It is colder than ten thousand year old ice, and it leaves bluish-white traces wherever it passes.
Jiang Yixue asked curiously, "Are you building such a large camp here for scientific research?"
Nie Qingwu smiled and said, "This is confidential. We are not building a camp here for scientific research. Brother Ye should know what we are doing here. Just ask him."
Jiang Yuxin asked unconvincedly: "He also knows your secrets? You told him? Then why didn't you tell us? You came here together, and you're still on guard against us."
Nie Qingwu smiled faintly and said, "Since it is a secret, I can't tell it, because I have my principles, and I didn't tell Brother Ye. However, in front of Brother Ye, no matter how secretive we are, I'm afraid he will see through it."
Jiang Yuxin blinked her big eyes and ran to Ye Feng: "Is what Sister Qingwu said true?"
Just as Nie Qingwu said, military secrets are not secrets at all in front of Ye Feng.
Two years ago in the military’s treasure house, Ye Feng saw a broken arm of an ancient god. It can be concluded that the military built a huge underground camp here in order to find evidence of the existence of giants.
Just now, Ye Feng used his mind to search the entire underground camp, not only to look for people who had worked here, but also to track down Bingpo who had just escaped.
This camp is not the bottom level. At the innermost part of the camp, there is a passage leading to the next level. A faint chill and a spiritual energy come from the next level.
It is estimated that Bingpo escaped into there, which is a natural cave.
"If you want to know the secret here, let's move on."
Jiang Yuxin asked doubtfully: "Keep going? Where are we going? It's quite warm here. I want to rest here for a while."
"Then you stay. We still have a long way to go."
Ye Feng opened the thick iron door leading to the next level.
The iron door had actually been deformed, it was just ajar and could be opened with a slight pull.
The handle was hanging down, obviously broken by some powerful force from outside.
The thirty-centimeter-thick steel plate was covered with dents from the impact.
The door frame was nailed deeply into the rock underground with iron nails, and the entire door frame was knocked off.
The guy who could break down the iron door with such great force and rush in must not be the small Ice Soul.
Outside the door, Ye Feng saw a deeply sunken footprint. It was not a human footprint, but a cow's hoof print.
Pushing open the half-open door, waves of cold air rushed in again, and outside was an ice cave with no end in sight.
A series of man-made steps extended downwards. Although there were no electric lights, the light coming from somewhere illuminated the white ice cave, giving it a faint glow.
It looks like there are light strips embedded behind the ice crystals.
Blown by the cold wind, Jiang Yuxin quickly put on her mask and complained, "What kind of place is that? Should we go in? It looks very deep."
Lan Ling'er followed Ye Feng curiously and made a face at Jiang Yuxin: "You don't have to go. Stay here and help us guard the elevator."
Jiang Yuxin looked at her elder sister with a questioning look.
Jiang Yixue smiled and said, "I don't care about you, you are free."
Jiang Yu was overjoyed: "Haha, my elder sister has spoken, so I don't have to go down."
