Chapter 719 Underground Base

[Thank you for your monthly support!]

Zero threw the insect spears one by one at a constant speed of three per second, and the short spears pulled out the remnants of the air, and the broken airflow formed a strange roar. In the roar, the short spear kept hitting the strange insects hanging above the cave. Only five seconds have passed since the spear fell from the first monster to the last spear was thrown. In a short time, more than a dozen strange insects were killed, but when the last one shot, the strange insect closest to Zero had woken up.

It let go of the tentacle biting the top of the hole faster than the insect spear and fell to the ground like a big spider. The insect spear shot on a stalagmite at the bottom of the cave, and the stalagmite was deeply plunged in by the short spear like cooked cheese, which shows the power of zero-sling spear. The strange insect swept over the body of its fallen companion and roared angrily from the cavity. Its arthropods quickly attacked zero as if sliding on the surface of the water.

The ground in the cave is rugged, but the strange insects seem to be unrestricted. The eight arthropods stretch freely, making the strange insects walk on the ground. Ling didn't see in a hurry, when the strange insect approached and bit him. He moved away like a ghost, and then unfolded the anti-gravity field. His whole body rose vertically in mid-air in violation of the laws of physics, and avoided the fierce attack of several tentacles of strange insects.

A turning track was swept out in mid-air, scattered behind the strange insect, and his leg swept out like a whip. The feet swept out several shadows in the air, and finally converged in one place, forming a conical ripple bombarding into the body of the strange insect. The whole body of the monster shrank and made a terrible cry, but the conical ripples kicked out of its mouth. Where the ripples passed, the tissues in the monster's body were twisted into a piece of meat paste.

With a zero blow, it will flash back immediately. When the monster is dying, it is frantically attacking everything that can be seen in place. It was not until more than ten seconds later that it gradually stopped moving, and the worm fluid poured out and flowed from the penetrating wound in the body to the ground.

Fifteen worms died on the ground, making the whole cave look crowded. Zero pulled out a short spear from one of the insect corpses, used it as a tool, pried open the hard shell on a worm's head, and then picked out the worm crystal from their brains. A moment later, Zero collected 14 insect crystals of different sizes. And the last worm, zero's blow through its body, can smash the worm crystal, but it can't be recovered.

In the original two pieces, there are 16 worm crystals, each with 100,000 gold coins, and this small bag contains 1.6 million, which is not a small amount, which is equivalent to the economic benefits generated by the full work of the three towns of Canon and Tucson for a month. Now, Zero hopes that there will be more of this kind of bug. However, the cave is so big that you can know if there are any strange insects at a glance.

Walking deeper into the cave, the more you go, the more the mountain walls on both sides are closed, and then there is only one path left, which is only enough for one person to walk through. It is no longer possible for strange insects to enter here, but on this path, Zero saw a piece of insect skin. It is thought that those strange insects have also evolved several times. These insect skins are the proof of their evolution.

Soon came to the end. The wall was covered with glowing moss. In this deep place, the temperature of the air increased significantly, and the rocks and mountain walls were covered with water droplets. Originally, Zero thought that there should be something like a cave at the end, otherwise these strange insects could not be born out of thin air. With a cave, there may be a possibility of leading to the surface, but he didn't think that there would still be a cliff at the end.

He didn't give up and groped on the moss. Soon he found that the wall was abnormal. It is too flat, and there is no bump under the moss, and it doesn't feel like a natural stone wall. Zero simply tore off these moss clothes, and after a moment, a metal door appeared in front of Zero. After these moss, there is actually a door, and there is even an electronic lock on the right hand side, which is just like an underground base!

Zero checked the electronic lock and found that there was still a little green light on it. Obviously, the base power supply was still in operation. If there is a base, there must be a way to the outside world. However, it also had to enter the base. Zero's finger flicked on the metal door, and there was a gloomy sound in the door. Obviously, the door was very thick and not easy to be forcibly destroyed by external forces.

To enter the base, it seems that you have to start with the electronic lock, but Zero doesn't know the password to open the door. He tried to give the memory group a substance to generate and crack the electronic password. Even he doesn't know whether this method is feasible. After all, one side is electronic technology and the other side is biology. There is a big difference between the two. But Zero's order still aroused the reaction of the memory group. Soon, Zero saw a short and sharp bone spur in the middle of his right fist. The bone spur was covered with pocket crystals of various colors, which were constantly shining. With the flickering of each array of light, zero can feel that it contains several detection wave energy.

Zero bone spurs on the electronic lock, and one end of the tip of the spine immediately softens and opens like mercury and penetrates through the crack of the electronic lock. Soon, Zero's brain received a series of random numbers. These numbers kept beating and were quickly analyzed under the detection wave energy of the bone spurs. Finally, the numbers gradually stopped. When they were determined, Zero got a set of passwords.

He withdrew the bone spur, and the bone spur left the electronic lock and automatically retracted into the zero fist. The password obtained from the petty is entered into the electronic lock, and the correct words of the password are immediately displayed on the LCD screen of the electronic lock. With the door shaking, the moss that had not been torn off fell off as the gate shrank up. Finally, a dark space appeared in front of Zero.

Zero walked in, and after a short adaptation, it could be seen that this was a corridor. Both sides of the corridor are extremely deep, and I don't know where to go. At this time, the door behind him fell again and isolated the two worlds inside and outside. After coming to the base, I found that it was not really dark. It's just that the main power supply of the base should stop working, so the lighting equipment is useless. But every ten meters, there is a red emergency light flashing, which is proof that the base backup power supply is working.

It's just that the backup power supply of the base should only be used in an important area and ensure that the channels in all parts of the base can be opened normally. With the faint light, Zero saw the environment of the base with the help of low-light vision. He saw a floor plan of the base on the right side of the entrance. From the plan, he is located near the biochemical experimental area. From the corridor to the east from the production area of the biochemical experimental area, he can reach the living area of the base. In the living area, there are obviously several elevator signs, which should be the exit to the outside world. I'm afraid that these elevators have stopped working, but since there are exits here, there should be emergency passages and so on.

In a word, it is quite promising to leave this underground world.

Zero reproduced this plan in his mind. According to the instructions on the map, he should go to the corridor on his left. There is a specimen room, and the specimen room is an experimental area. Entering the experimental area, it is not far from the exit. As he walked, he thought about who built the underground base and when it was put into use.

Theoretically, there is no doubt that only Rome has the strength to build an underground base. However, Rome obviously focuses on mecha technology, but this underground base is obviously built to develop biochemical technology. If there is no accident, the strange insects outside the base, and even the giant rats used as food by strange insects, are the products of biochemical technology.

But this base has obviously been abandoned, but I don't know why?

It didn't take long for Zero to come to the end of the corridor. There is still a metal door standing here, and there is an electronic lock next to the door. Zero-heavy used the old trick and opened the door after deciphering the password on the electronic lock with a bone spur. As soon as the door opened, an unpleasant smell gushed out. This smell is a bit like a rotten egg, but more of it is the odor left by the decomposition of the body.

It can be seen that the specimen room has not been opened for a long time, and the air filtration equipment inside has stopped working, which makes the odor in it difficult to dissipate. Zero had to close his breath. Looking in from the door, he could see specimen vessels containing different forms of mutaphs. Many of them are unknown to Zero, and they are more like some kind of alien. Judging from their physical characteristics, these aliens are undoubtedly the best biological hunters.

Some utensils were knocked to the ground, and the preservation** inside had already been lost, leaving only a strange body. In these corpses, Zero also saw several skeletons, wearing the uniforms of laboratory personnel. They should be the unlucky ones who were trapped here before they could evacuate when the base mutated and finally died.

Zero found an identity electronic card in the pocket of one of his skull coats, which read "Dr. Andura". He put away this electronic card. With this electronic card, he should be able to pass everywhere in the base.

Suddenly, a faint sound was caught in Zero's ear. Replaying this sound in his mind, Zero automatically constructs a picture of a pair of feet stepping on the ground.

Someone is here!

It's just that this base has fallen for so long. Does God know that the guy who still lives in the base can still be called a human? Zero quickly flashed to a row of intact specimen vessels, and then saw several figures coming in at another exit of the specimen room. These people's bodies have been alienated. Their body surface skin is covered with scale-like cuticles, and their hands and feet are twisted and deformed to varying degrees, and some of them are simply a pair of claws.

The head still maintains the human appearance, but both men and women are bareheaded, but their eyes are gray-white, which looks very strange. After they came in, under the command of a particularly strong man, these people broke some specimen vessels near Zero and then took out the specimens of the alien animals inside. Some even smelled the specimen under their noses. Looking at it, they seemed to have the idea of using the specimen as food.

Zero is sure that this specimen will not taste so delicious. But for these people, the specimens in the utensils seem to be their only food in the base. Who are they? Is it a researcher from the original base, or is it a product of some kind of biochemical technology like those strange insects outside?
