Miao Pu's words made Kang Danian and others very happy. In such a dangerous place, they heard that it was not too extravagant to get a base station with a high security factor. When Kang Danian and the others heard what Miao Pu said, they didn't know what it meant.
, hurriedly said: "After this stronghold is cleared, we will be responsible for guarding it. Maybe it can also be used as your retreat."
Miao Pu made a summary and said with some worry: "The place is fine, but what I'm worried about is the ammunition. After all, there aren't many left."
"Don't worry, with a good bunker, a layer-by-layer retreat strategy, and as much accuracy as possible, I believe I can still withstand the impact of a normal-sized monster group." Kang Danian said, patting his chest.
"That's fine. I'll leave some plants when the time comes. Once they die, I'll feel something. I'll rush back as soon as possible to provide support. You guys take a rest first, and I'll clean up the place."
Although the Frontier Research Institute is small, it is well-equipped with all the necessary features except that it is relatively small. It also has a cabinet-type structure and a power room. The most amazing thing is that the diesel generator set can actually
How to use it.
"This is amazing, the Yuan civilization is actually compatible with our civilization," Jiang Shangqing said in surprise.
Miao Pu shook his head and said: "Not necessarily. You have to know that everything here has been sourced. The diesel is, the wiring is, and the light tubes are also. Now, the most we can confirm is that it is completely sourced on the basis of the original civilization.
It seems that it will not destroy the original performance of the object. In addition, we have too little information to say that this theory is universal. It is estimated that the principles behind technological products are also applicable in the source environment under certain circumstances.
of."
Luo Zhiqing waved her hand and said impatiently: "Okay, there is no need to be so detailed. Research is not our specialty. If it is helpful to us and has the value of reporting, then it is OK."
"Haha, okay, you win. By the way, how many cutting-edge research institutes like this are there?"
As it involves secrets, there is no ready-made map, and it is all in Luo Zhiqing's mind. Miao Pu can only ask her for advice.
Luo Zhiqing thought for a while and said: "I know of two in total. In addition to this one, there is also one over in Channel C."
Miao Pu thought: "After finishing this place, I plan to go to that area to have a look. In terms of the specialness of this area, the only places that can stay people for a long time are this kind of places. If it is not found there, I think there is no place in this area.
How valuable it is to explore.”
Luo Zhiqing knew that the value of exploration mentioned by Miao Pu was entirely from the perspective of search and rescue personnel. In fact, she did not think that monsters would build nests in such weird places. At most, they would be some sources that had not been discovered before.
Relics in the peripheral areas of civilization. But as she just said, research is not their specialty, and there is no need to spend too much time on such goals.
There are indeed monsters in the Advance Research Institute, such as fire-clawed monsters and fire-breathing monsters. These were originally ordinary people who were trapped initially, most of them were scientific researchers. There were only a few of them in total. The total fighting time was less than a minute. Instead, they were from
It took more than half an hour to search from top to bottom.
The institute's power restoration, lighting restoration, area closure, door locking and other functions have been restored, further strengthening the protection capabilities here and enhancing Kang Danian's confidence in their defense.
Miao Pu and Luo Zhiqing did not stay long and soon set off for another cutting-edge research institute.
Generally speaking, this area has become a super huge hive. From where they are to get to the cutting-edge research institute No. C, there is no need to take a long way. You only need to ensure that the direction is not lost, and go through the large and small holes.
That’s it.
After walking for a while, the two encountered plant monsters again, but this time those monsters were not specifically aimed at the two of them, they were targeting other people.
There was no sound of gunfire, only the sound of slashing and energy bombardment in the dark irregular honeycomb space.
Although he was relatively far away, Miao Pu was still able to learn some things through observation and experience. For example, the group fighting the monster had a combat power of about A.
This kind of combat power is already very powerful. You must know that he does not use trump cards or source weapons. His combat power is A. It is just because of Yuan Shou's special characteristics that his endurance is stronger.
Miao Pu looked at Luo Zhiqing and asked, "What should we do? What are your plans?"
Luo Zhiqing knew that Miao Pu's question was not because of lack of decision-making, but because he was taking care of her. After all, her appearance could easily cause misunderstandings.
Luo Zhiqing snorted softly and said: "You are qualified to carry out operations here, that is, you have the least information. They will not misunderstand me as a monster, don't worry."
"Then let's help them out?"
Luo Zhiqing had no objection. She had already guessed the origins of these people. Although she had never interacted with them before, the reputation of this group was not bad.
With the addition of two people, the situation immediately reversed. Both of them were strong enough to carry out tasks independently. They had no particularly obvious shortcomings and did not need assistance. They could go deep into the enemy's formation and slash and kill. With the support of this group of people,
With their cooperation, the monster's commander was quickly cornered and killed.
The monsters who lost their commander immediately fell down trees and scattered. A small number of them were chopped down, and most of them ran away.
Seeing this scene, Miao Pu frowned slightly. The monster was growing continuously. In the past, the commander who died would either fight to the death or fall into chaos, but now he knows how to retreat quickly.
Moreover, he also discovered that the offense and defense of the cannon fodder monsters and plant dogs have been enhanced. Although the magnitude is not large, the overall improvement still makes combat feel more difficult now than in the past.
After the battle, the group of people fighting the monster gathered and appeared in front of Miao Pu and Luo Zhiqing.
They wear the same model of mobile armor.
To Miao Pu's senses, this kind of mobile armor was lighter and more compact, and the power device on the back was made very small. Moreover, the armor itself should be able to compete with his plant armor.
You must know that his Zhikai has grown according to his body shape, it is absolutely perfect, and the way of wearing it is also very different from ordinary armor. The armor of these people is comparable to his, and the technology contained in it is definitely high-end.
The burliest male on the other side was the first to speak, with a broad and powerful voice, "It turns out to be Mu Yuan and Phantom. They are indeed famous Wu Xushi. On behalf of the Holy Light Armed Forces, I salute you two and thank you for your help." As he said that, he
Make a fist with your right hand and touch your chest, with the palm of your fist facing your heart, and bow slightly to salute.
"Hello, Captain Fang Zhenggang." Luo Zhiqing said relaxedly.
Miao Pu didn't know the other party's origin and didn't want to say more, so Luo Zhiqing stepped forward to negotiate with him.
Knowing that Luo Zhiqing and Miao Pu were going to explore the cutting-edge research institute not far away, Fang Zhenggang and his party simply talked some worthless nonsense and left.
Watching them go away, Luo Zhiqing said to Miao Pu: "It seems that they are in a hurry to get to the core area of the ruins. You may have contributed to this."
Miao Pu wondered: "If this is true, how did they obtain information about me?"
Luo Zhiqing shook her head and said she was unclear.
Miao Pu changed the question: "Which faction are they?"
"Dove."
"Ha..." Miao Pu laughed with obvious contempt. Kang Danian and others, Yu Haojun and his party, Bu Ji's scientific research team, and Xie Hongjun's rescue team all belong to the Dove faction. He, a non-faction member, time and time again
To ensure the safety of these people and advance the progress of the operation, these golden thugs of the faction secretly crossed into Chencang. It is really shameful.
"I originally had a pretty good sense of the Dove Faction, but this time I really understand it." Miao Pu said helplessly.
Luo Zhiqing, who was walking in front, lightly crossed a large hollow with a span of more than one meter, holding on to the irregular columnar rock mass, she turned back and smiled at Miao Pu: "Do you think they are just a bunch of hypocrites?"
"Almost, there are almost no good people left in this world."
"The more difficult it is to achieve the goal, the easier it is to become unscrupulous. It is normal to form a sharp contrast with your daily behavior. You are too simple, I mean involved in the world. Haha, but before this, you were just a student after all.
.”
"Yes, you are still smart, may I ask Gui Geng?" Miao Pu said, jumping up to a higher position and looking far ahead, the outline of the Frontier Research Institute had appeared at the end of the field of vision.
Luo Zhiqing ignored Miao Pu's sour question and just said: "Don't think too much. Many things depend on the general direction. On the whole, doves are okay."
"Hmph, what a good guy. I'm a stingy person. I'll remember it if I suffer a loss."
"Tch, just remember it if you want to. Don't come at me."
Miao Pu smiled and flew over the 10-meter span with a 20-degree somersault. The spear in his hand was accurately inserted into a rock mass. With the elasticity of the gun barrel, he climbed more than 4 meters vertically and clasped a section of rock like a beam with one hand.
Then, using only the strength of one hand and one arm, the entire body rose above the line of the beam, and then turned forward with one arm, quietly standing on this section of rock mass.
The next second, he flew down again, like a shot arrow.
Duh
The spear was inserted into the rock mass again, but this time, at the front end of the barrel, a monster was nailed to death through the chest.
This monster has the ability of invisibility, which is on the same level as the blue-blooded monster. It can ignore visual observation and block mental induction. The invisibility level is very high, but it is not a blue-blooded monster, but a plant-type monster.
At this time, Miao Pu said: "I'm not coming at you. Isn't this just a complaint? They say birds of a feather flock together. The Snake Sect advertises itself as a real villain. I do the same. Doesn't it seem right?"
"Right? Are you expressing admiration or teasing?" Luo Zhiqing had already arrived in front of Miao Pu as she spoke. She boldly leaned forward and stared at Miao Pu.
"Uh... I'm sorry, I said the wrong thing." Miao Pu avoided Luo Zhiqing's eyes.
"Haha, you are quite innocent." Luo Zhiqing changed the topic, "Okay, no more joking. You are very capable. You can see through such invisibility.
"If they know how to be hygienic and bathe frequently, then I might not be able to do anything about it." Miao Pu said, looking up and down at the monster.
This is a new type of plant monster. It looks a bit like a slimmed-down version of a hybrid monster or a cannon fodder monster. It can also be said that it looks a bit like the protoss soldiers in [StarCraft]. Its legs are anti-joints, and its toes are between human and human.
Between the toes and claws of Tyrannosaurus, there are three in front and two in back. The hands are very similar to human hands. Thick bones are their basic feature, and the bark-like rough but very tough skin is its second feature. Its face is like
It is a supernatural monster with no mouth or nose, but the lower half of its face is missing suddenly, as if its lower jaw has been removed.
"Have you seen it?" Miao Pu looked at Luo Zhiqing.
Luo Zhiqing shook her head, then checked the details and did some simple experiments. Then she said: "They are very mature, not new monsters. They may be born with the ability to be invisible, and they will not reveal their true form until death. This also explains why
In my previous investigations, I would be noticed by monsters inexplicably."
"The monsters in this system are becoming more and more threatening."
"Yeah." Luo Zhiqing agreed: "I suspect that after they devour the awakened ones, they can not only transform them into supernatural monsters, but also analyze and even copy their supernatural powers."
"If this is really the case, that would be too bad. Although the supernatural monster is powerful, it needs the body of the awakened person as a modified embryo. If we don't feed it, we will only kill fewer and fewer people. But the appearance of this invisible monster,
But it means that the creation of pure plant-based monsters has reached a higher level. If I were to face dozens of supernatural monsters, let alone fight them, it would be a question of whether I could run away."
"So, shouldn't you attack a nest of plant monsters and seize one of their bases?"
"No, that's not my choice. I just want to find the person I'm looking for. Even if I can't find it, I'll give up and leave this hell place quickly. As you said, I'm trapped in a vicious cycle of constant fighting.
, it’s time to step out and recuperate for a while. When people call me Mu Yuan, I feel that it is full of irony. I guess I am probably the only Yuan Shou in the world who cannot transform."
While talking, the two of them had arrived at the cutting-edge research institute at No. C.
According to Miao Pu's rough estimate, this research institute is basically on the same level as the Frontier Research Institute No. B, but is relatively closer to the core area of the ruins.
Here, the strange energy that can neutralize supernatural powers becomes more and more intense, and the intense energy has crystallized. They are as small as volcanic ash, and as clear as ice crystals. Their existence hinders the awakened ones, just like the haze in the world.
Normally, ordinary people's mental perception is almost completely lost, and even Miao Pu's dark vision has been severely affected.
He condensed a curved lamp head, but the result was also difficult to use. The curved lamp head is ultimately the use of supernatural powers, and any supernatural power will be defeated in such an area.
As a result, Luo Zhiqing handed him a wolf-eye flashlight, and she also had an extra one in her hand.
"Cio, what about magic?"
Luo Zhiqing smiled at him, then lightly touched her face, and her visor appeared... "Haha, this is called space magic." Luo Zhiqing said proudly.
"Tch, it's nothing more than a space storage thing like those mentioned in Xianxia novels. There's nothing fancy about it."
"Hey, are you a man? It's so difficult to say a few nice words? You deserve to have no girlfriend..."
The Frontier Research Institute has also been eroded by negative energy crystals, and the concentration is greater than that outside.
Darkness, flashlight beams, endless dust-like particles... Miao Pu walked among them with a flashlight, feeling like he was searching among the ruins where volcanic ash was still falling.
In fact, these negative energy crystals are lighter than dust, and they hardly fall. They are suspended in the air like impurities in sewage, everywhere.
The entire Frontier Research Institute is dead silent. Unlike Frontier Research Institute B, the place is filled with the effects of destruction and erosion. Everything as small as a paper clip or as large as the floor of the main hall seems to have been irresponsibly used with a coarse grinding wheel.
It was polished again.
Miao Pu guessed that the parts that were polished off should be the parts that were transformed. This place should have been infected with high-concentration supernatural powers like Frontier Research Institute B, but before the whole process was completed, it was affected by negative energy.
The crystallization was completely eroded, so it became what it is now, fragmented, no part of it seemed intact, and it seemed that it would completely collapse at any time.
Such a place cannot accommodate people, but Miao Pu and Luo Zhiqing still searched it with all their strength.
Speaking of which, the harvest was not without success. In this research institute, the two of them discovered two space cracks. They were like large cracks on the side of a large iron ship that crashed in the polar regions, and the howling wind continued.
It blows out from the inside, but what blows out is not severe cold, but negative energy particles.
Miao Pu really didn't know anything about space, but Luo Zhiqing was an expert in this field. She told Miao Pu that this strange space crack did not exist in isolation. It was somewhere in the underground world. There might be a huge space crack.
The entrance is different from this crack that looks like a wind duct. Such a space crack represents a plane space.
"Plane space? Like the independent space anchored outside the main plane created by mages in fantasy novels? This is too exaggerated. It completely subverts my understanding of the world. In a world like ours,
Maybe there is such a thing? Using hypothetical theory to analyze it, only low-level worlds with imperfect laws, where the structure of the world is made up of elements rather than atoms and molecules, and where it is easier to directly convert matter and energy, will planes and the like appear?
?”
Luo Zhiqing said: "The perfection of the law and the existence of a plane are two different concepts. Moreover, the word "plane" is only used to describe it, not to say that it is the kind of plane in fantasy novels."
"Okay, I admit that the source civilization is indeed more advanced than human civilization. Their understanding of space and time is probably much deeper than ours, so they can create a hole anywhere that cannot be confirmed by three-dimensional space.
, bubbles or something, are you talking about something like this?"
"Absolutely. You can understand it this way. The existence of my ability to move space proves the existence of super three-dimensional space, and the source civilization is relatively aware of this kind of space and can use it."
"You mean that a device at the core of the ruins is probably like a fully automatic crypt excavation program, opening up a magical space similar to a plane, and the space rift we see is an energy exchange device
, just like the exhaust pipe of a car?”
"Haha, you're pretty good at thinking about it. It's almost the same, although it's not accurate enough. In addition, although I know something about space, my knowledge is limited. I can use some of the power of space, but I can't explain it theoretically."
"Okay, it's going to be a fucking alien world. It's really a bottomless pit. Let's get out of here first. I don't want God to hang out in another world."
