Big balls of cold breath slapped Su's face, the breath came from the depths of the crack. Along with the cold air came the wind, and the slightly humid wind blew Su's hair into disorder. But Su's eyes were as bright as electricity, as if he was going to break through the darkness and go straight into the abyss. However, except for the granite layer visible above the crack, it is completely dark below.
The crack is like the earth opening a big mouth, swallowing light and life. It slopes downward on both sides, like a "V". Now, at the edge of the crack, soldiers drive 2-inch-wide retaining rings into the ground to fasten safety lines so that they can enter the depths of the crack for rescue work.
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 line was only about 500 meters, which prevented rescuers from reaching the deepest part of the crack. During this period, Brown went down in person, even untied the safety rope, and searched down for about 100 meters when the formation trend was relatively stable.
Below that, what Brown saw was the fast-flowing ground river, and the mutated fish jumping out of the ground river from time to time. Seeing this situation, Brown could only turn back. According to his understanding, if people and cars fell into the deep cracks, whether it was Zero or Beyoncé, their chances of surviving were very small.
Ke Su didn't believe that Zero died just like that, she firmly believed that Zero was still alive. Even Su didn't know when this belief was established. That was probably a kind of confidence that Ling gave her. After all, there were several times of great danger, everyone thought that Ling was dead, but he still reluctantly walked back from the death line.
Since Zero and Beyoncé had an accident yesterday, Brown has been the interim commander. He first asked the soldiers from the Black Rose side to return to Asgard for the purpose of reporting the news and bringing reinforcements. The zero-side personnel stayed behind and started rescue work first. But they lacked the necessary rescue equipment and instruments, which made the work unsatisfactory.
Today, at Su's suggestion, Brown combined the two safety ropes into one and ensured it was of sufficient length. But Su intends to enter the bottom of the crack by himself, and even sneak into Hanoi. Only she, the Destroyer, dared to enter the dangerous underground river. Once ordinary soldiers entered the underground river, they would probably be dismembered by the mutated fish.
"I still don't recommend doing this." Brown walked over with a frown and said, "It's enough to tie two safety lines into one, but the joint part may break due to an accident. Besides, you don't have relevant diving equipment. How many meters can I dive to the surface of the water with my own quality. It is best to wait for the reinforcements from Asgard to arrive, what do you think, Su?"
Su shook his head and said resolutely: "We can wait, but the first can't wait, if he is still alive!"
Brown scratched his head and said, "Why don't you let me go down."
"No, your ability can't be used in the water at all. As for me, at least half of it can be used." Su Ba raised the epee inserted obliquely on the ground, and strode towards the safety rope.
Knowing that he couldn't stop the woman, Brown followed her and yelled at the soldiers to do a final check. But at this moment, a detective ran over panting, pointed to the other side of the crack and said, "Sir, there...there are people there."
Hearing these words, Su took the binoculars from the scout and immediately looked towards the opposite side. The telescope wobbled back and forth and finally stopped. Through it, Su saw two figures coming out of the abandoned town that was rested yesterday, one of them seemed to have spotted Su, he raised his hand and waved, who is it if it's not Zero
"Quick, go around the crack. I knew the head was still alive!" Su yelled, the haze on his face was swept away, and a smile like a bright sun bloomed.
"They seem to have spotted us."
Watching an off-road vehicle start on the opposite side of the crack and intend to drive around the crack, Zero smiled at Beyoncé.
After they stayed in the white blood cell base overnight, Curd personally sent them away this morning. The real way out is not the repair passage of the water purification unit, it is just a bait released by Ke De. In fact, the front end of the passage is safe, but if someone really drills in, then when he reaches the emergency passage, he will find that Ke De is in the emergency passage. Many researcher spawns are prepared inside.
Chi Bi can kill all the descendants, but the end of the passage has been sealed, and it is also a dead end that cannot be exited.
The real way of life is an elevator shaft in the biochemical area. The elevator has been broken by Ke De. In order to facilitate climbing, Ke De installed a fixed bracket in the wall of the elevator shaft. Although this is the only way of life in the base, it is in Ke De's lair. Even if someone finds out, it is not easy to pass. If Zero hadn't held Kod's core in his hands, the doctor would not have exposed this channel.
But even so, climbing vertically in an elevator shaft is not an easy task. Of course, there is no problem with Zero, but with the physical strength that Beyoncé has exercised all year round, she can barely climb to the exit. Leaving from the exit, Zero and the two found that they had returned to the town where they had rested before. Thinking about it this way, the small town built on the surface back then might have been a cover for the white blood cell base.
After leaving the town, as Zero expected, Su and the others still did not leave.
That night.
Seeing Beyoncé's peacefully sleeping face, Zero kissed it lightly before turning and leaving the battlefield tent. A bonfire was burning on the temporary camp, and a dozen soldiers on duty were walking back and forth to check the safety of the camp. Zero and the others still have to stay here for a few more days. After reuniting with Su and Brown, Beyoncé wrote a personal letter and asked to take it back to the housekeeper, Cacilio, in order to transfer a fully enclosed conductor car.
Only this special vehicle that is completely isolated from outside influences can bring back Dr. Ke De, who is still in the white blood cell base. As the host of Substance Z, Dr. Curd himself has an ability close to the ninth level, and can produce a spawn corps with an average level of around the eighth level, which is already a huge force. More importantly, Dr. Ke De himself is an expert in weapons and precision machinery, and Zero just lacks talents in this area.
The addition of Ke De will make the cornerstone of Rena Kingdom more stable.
"Don't rest? Head!"
Su's voice sounded, Ling turned around, and saw this old friend throwing a can of beer at him. I bought the beer when I left Pavalici, and Zero was not polite, so he took a long gulp with the pull ring on.
"The taste is not very good, but it is fresh. I heard that they brew it with wheat grown by themselves. It is a pity that this time is in a hurry, otherwise I would like to see what the pieces of rice look like. In some books in the old days I mentioned that when harvesting in autumn, you will see a golden wave of wheat." Su sat down and sighed: "The current surface is completely unfavorable for planting, and the soil after artificial purification can only be used in a closed environment." Or an environment such as an underground base can grow crops. Sometimes I wonder if this earth is gradually dying."
"Nothing is eternal. People will die, and so will the planet. It's just that compared with people, the lifespan of the planet is so long that there is almost no end in sight." Ling Zaisu sat next to him: "The past cannot be changed. , all we can do is to create the future. If we want to see the land full of rice, we must first overthrow the existing power framework of this era. Then integrate them and formulate a direction to improve the entire The environment of the planet, and create a world where ordinary people can live freely. In that case, maybe we can see the beautiful scenery that can only be seen in the old times."
"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."
"No matter how difficult it is, don't even think about leaving me alone." Berrien's voice suddenly sounded from behind Zero, and he sat down and said seriously: "Don't forget that you still owe me money. You have to live for me until all debts are paid off!"
Brown also got out of the tent at this time, yelling: "I said, why do you stay up late at night, so you secretly hide and drink. Boss, you are not interesting."
Zero smiled, and threw the beer in his hand to Brown. The latter took it and poured it into his mouth, then drank it all. Looking at Brown and other people, Zero feels lucky because he has a group of reliable comrades-in-arms. Each of them has their own different attachments and dreams. And in Zero's blueprint, there is enough space to accommodate them.
So they are willing to stay by Zero's side, just like this time even if Zero's life is uncertain, they never left. As for comrades-in-arms and partners like this, Zero believes that as long as he continues on this road, he will gain more.
Five days later, Cascilio arrived with the command car Beyoncé had assigned. After hearing that Beyoncé had fallen into the big crack, the old butler had trouble sleeping and eating. It was not until he saw Beyoncé again that Cacilio was completely relieved.
Next, at night, Zero brought Ke De out of the white blood cell base. Seeing this armored command vehicle that can completely isolate the outside world, Kord showed his enthusiasm for the professional field. All night, he pestered Caxilio to inquire about the structure, system, and weaponry of the armored vehicle. For Curd, this new-age chariot has an incomparable appeal to him.
It was not until the next morning that the convoy set off for Asgard. In the car, Zero was thinking about things by himself, while the two old men, Ke De and Casilio, continued to discuss the topic of the chariot. Beyoncé sat next to Zero bored and asked, "What are you thinking?"
"Do you know Buford Town?"
Beyoncé asked strangely, "A small town in the wilderness? Why do you ask this?"
"I met a killer. He said he was from Buford Town. Moreover, he showed a strong hatred for me. I am very curious and concerned about this." Zero looked at the light screen displayed on the car wall. The world outside the car said: "And this earthquake, don't you think the time and place of the earthquake are too coincidental? I suspect it was done by that killer, because he is an Earthshaker with the ability of the earth element. Capable of launching a capability of this scale."
"If you need it, I'll ask someone to look it up when I go back, and I'll give you the information then."
Zero nodded, and he didn't speak again. In fact, what he was thinking about was not only Jin from Buford Town, but also about himself as a super life form of the fourth era. Zero is very strange, there is no reason why Agladis, who is the will of the earth, does not know this kind of thing. It is more likely that Agladis found him because of his body identity. But why didn't he tell his identity, what was he going to hide
It's a pity that Agladis is not human, even if Zero wanted to ask him to understand, there was no way to find him.
Agladis, the star beast Proseus, the super life form of the fourth era, and his body. Here, it seems that there is an invisible rope connecting the four of them. Zero couldn't help thinking, where would the ultra life be now
----Dividing line----
He appeared in a hall full of people coming and going.
The hall adopts the design style of the ancient Roman drama theater. Looking up, it is a huge curved dome, and the edges are decorated with complicated and elegant stone carvings. Four gray-white rock pillars support the sky, and they are carved with sculptures of Roman gladiators. The ground is paved with black and white marble tiles, which looks like a huge chessboard, and the people walking in the hall are naturally chess pieces.
This is not a luxurious hall in reality. In fact, at this moment in the new era, such an ancient Roman-style building probably no longer exists. This is a virtual world built by electronic laser technology. Through a specific nerve signal transmission terminal, people can arrive here instantly from all over the world like him.
This is the virtual information hall opened by the dark businessman. Guests can enter this virtual world through the terminal, post news or conduct virtual transactions in the hall.
He tightened the virtual long windbreaker on his body, lowered his head and walked towards the reception desk. On the reception desk is a blonde hot girl, she is the receptionist, a virtual image presented in the lobby by a real person through the terminal device. Don't look at this woman as beautiful, but she may be fat and ugly in reality. After all, considering the issue of privacy, terminal equipment has the function of adjusting or even reshaping the image.
"Is there anything I can do for you, sir?" The receptionist smiled sweetly.
He took out a pocket-sized laser generator from the pocket of his windbreaker, pressed a green button on it, and the generator immediately popped up a small light screen. A perfect six-sided 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 immediately straightened his body, this is the identity proof of the guest. The diamond represents the VIP level, and the 5 is its number. There are only 10 VIPs with diamond status in the dark businessman's hierarchy. These people usually use information terminals to directly contact Hades, the leader of the dark merchants, 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 environment now, and I can't use my original terminal to meet Mr. Hades directly, so I can only make a detour. Circle. Please tell Mr. Hades for me that I have an important deal to negotiate with him!"
