"It should be difficult for you to understand the current situation. As for what happened in the past, I will tell you later." Xu Yang walked outside and looked into the darkness outside the shuttle.
After the quarry was destroyed by the electromagnetic shock wave, there was no light anywhere, nothing could be seen, and no one else came to investigate, as if this underground pit had been completely forgotten.
Xu Yang could feel that the so-called "miracle" of the witch temporarily suspended his life and prevented him from dying. But the damaged implants were still in Xu Yang's body.
Sooner or later they will continue to collapse and completely consume his life.
We must leave here quickly and find a place where the implant can be repaired.
Xu Yang walked to the console of the shuttle and issued the order.
"Go to the exit of Aizu Underground City. If possible, stop at a prosthetic clinic in Highland 26 or Katagi District."
"Warning: The aircraft has been locked without correct biometric verification for a long time." The shuttle's artificial intelligence responded, "Visitors do not have the right to control the route of this aircraft. Please pass biometric verification or present relevant documents."
By the way, this guy is a product of Blackfire Innovation. Just listen to the words of the company personnel and those few mercenaries. It is impossible for just anyone to control it.
Damn it! If there was a digital mind, this thing would have been cracked long ago.
It's a pity that Xu Yang is now almost the same as a normal person without implants, and even worse. Normal people just don't have implants. Xu Yang has a bunch of burnt and unstable implants on his body, and he doesn't know when they will explode.
.
The power of electromagnetic pulse is so terrifying. Especially the products used by large companies can completely break through most electromagnetic protection systems. Even Mateo was destroyed instantly.
Xu Yang sighed secretly.
He walked out of the hatch and looked outside. The surroundings were pitch black, with no light at all. The fire on Mateo's body had extinguished itself, exuding the stench of burnt machinery and artificial leather.
If you want to pass the fingerprint verification, you have to find a mercenary's finger in the darkness, but that is too difficult.
Moreover, the shuttle is equipped with artificial intelligence, not a fixed program. It can distinguish between dead and alive. The fingers of a dead person will definitely not pass the verification.
"Ah..." Xu Yang walked to Bacchus' body and could not look away for a long time.
"What are you doing?" Falosa poked her head out.
"You killed a poor person." Xu Yang looked at the ink in the blood, "She had her own pursuit."
"I have killed too many people in my life, and there are still several pieces lying around." Falosa pointed to the corpses of other killed mercenaries in the darkness, "Why do you prefer one to another? Why don't you care about their life and death?"
"She calls herself 'Bacchus'. She is a witch and one of your kind."
"Death is the only way we must go, I'm just helping to speed it up."
"You almost died yourself."
"Isn't this saved by you? Staying alive is everything. As long as you stay alive, you can point fingers at the dead."
"You never thought about controlling your powers?"
"I like to see heads exploding. Is it my fault?"
"...What on earth did I save?"
"I am a good boy, and you have done good deeds. Future historians will write legends about my story, and you will occupy the main space in the first few chapters." Falosa poked Bacchus's flesh, "Don't look at her.
If this happens, I can save her."
"how?"
"The law of recovery in its heyday can restore things to the state they were in seven days ago." Falosa said, "That is, it can turn rotten meat back into a living person. If you miss this guy, help me find my strength as soon as possible.
.”
"Being able to bring the dead back to life... This kind of power is too powerful. So what are the side effects? It can't be without cost."
"That's the truth." Falosa smiled, "From various angles, I am also a 'reality manipulator'."
Now Falosa has found some spare mercenary clothes to put on. They look a bit nondescript. Those mercenary jackets and camouflage pants cannot cover her plump figure at all.
Still like a monster, he should be sleeping in a coffin.
Now there is no time to delve into why she is sleeping in that ancient tomb.
Must go.
As long as you avoid the people in the company and reach the ground safely, you will have endless money.
"Let's go." Xu Yang said, "Let's take everything we can in the shuttle and leave."
"I don't recognize these iron sheets, and I hate ghosts. You take care of these."
Xu Yang rummaged through boxes and cabinets in the shuttle, looking for the supplies that the mercenaries had packed into the shuttle.
Falosa sat on the chair and patted the leather surface.
"It feels quite comfortable. You can be my attendant from now on," she said.
"You are different from the witches I have seen," Xu Yang fumbled for the available things, "The guy before said it right, there are only three types of witches now, bitches, slaves, and perverted killing machines. You just behave erratically.
, but it doesn’t seem difficult to get along with.”
"Because I don't like to make things complicated. You tell me how to survive in this era, and I make friends with you. It's that simple."
After some searching, Xu Yang found four bottles of pure water, three large bags of military rations, two sabers, two pistols, a submachine gun, some ammunition and other miscellaneous tools and sundries.
He took a multi-pocket utility vest from the spare clothes on the wall and put it on, stuffed the items into the front and back pockets of the vest, and then put it on again.
The weight of clothes has never been so heavy.
Xu Yang stepped out of the shuttle and looked into the distance.
The Aizu Castle Katagi District is connected to the excavation site, but in the distance, as far as the eye can see, the Katagi District looks lifeless, in darkness, with not a single light visible.
"It's so dark." Falosa also walked out, "I remember it wasn't this dark before."
"..." Xu Yang was silent.
Too weird.
In the past, the slums at least had some electric lighting, but now there is nothing.
"Do you have any idea?" Falosa asked.
"It's like the world has been destroyed," Xu Yang said.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Why does the city become dark? There is no distinction between day and night in underground cities, and power is supplied 24 hours a day.
In the end what happened?
Or is it that the electromagnetic pulse blasting in the mining site destroyed all the power supplies in the surrounding area?
impossible.
He had a hunch that after such a long delay, nothing else had come close...
Maybe the people in Kyoto Mugen will never send someone to check on the situation at the quarry.
The city fell into darkness, and other accidents must have occurred.
"Let's go." Xu Yang took Falosa away from the quarry. "There used to be lights in the wood area, but now it's completely dark. Something must have happened. Let's go take a look now and leave here as soon as possible."
"Let's go!" Falosa seemed to be in a good mood, "I saved you and you saved me. We must continue to help each other."
Xu Yang was not happy at all.
These two unlucky guys... one is a neurohacker whose implants have been scrapped and cannot use technology at all, and the other is an ancient witch whose magic power has been sealed and can only use small miracles. She seems to especially like to cause disasters.
Such two people can't even trust each other. They can't even hope to return to the ground, let alone change the status quo. Without digital mind, they can't check the surrounding situation at all. When they are chased, they will be miserable and have no power to fight back.
.
He is still thinking about his cash card. With 100 million funds on the card, he is close to real wealth freedom, even if he replaces a new set of implants! How can he die underground?
Xu Yang first checked the fissure station where the mercenaries had previously stayed, and found that there was nothing valuable inside except for equipment that could not be moved.
Falosa knew nothing about technological products, regarded them as pagan statues and magic weapons, and strongly demanded to leave. Xu Yang found a flashlight for them to explore the road in the dark and return to the underground city.
The outermost area of Aizu Underground City is called Katagi Ward. The poorest people are like ants, building nests and living in this underground suburb, begging for work in places with extremely high crime rates.
It is about 5 kilometers from Pianmu District to the quarry.
Previously, Xu Yang came here in Mateo's off-road vehicle. Just like in the blink of an eye, the vehicle was blown up in the previous quarry. Now he was walking on two feet, and with injuries on his body, he quickly
Just out of breath.
Feelings of exhaustion and hunger came over me.
My stomach was so empty that I couldn't even feel it. Xu Yang thought to himself. But with so little food in his vest, it was better to save money. Even if he went to Pianmu District, he might not be able to find a store that could be opened.
He took another look.
The entire Pianmu District is extremely dark. It was originally a hopeless place, but now it is even more dilapidated. You can't even see the advertising lights for Taiwan's operation.
The whole city is without power?
There were bursts of noises and screams from it, which made Xu Yang even more uneasy. What happened? Is there a conflict somewhere? Where did the electricity go?
After a while, he saw some lights shining in the city. He was a little surprised at first, and then his heart sank.
That's firelight.
Bright yellow flames stretched out from the window of an apartment building, licking around violently. The apartment was six stories high, like a giant deformed pillar or a steel birdcage. The top of the apartment was separated from the video screen of the underground city dome.
some distance.
The fire quickly engulfed the entire building.
"You look really bad." Falosa was walking in front, but when she turned around and saw Xu Yang, she immediately stopped.
"There's a fire out front."
"That's not what I'm talking about! I'm talking about your morale!"
"What?"
"He looks ashen as a dervish on a pilgrimage."
"This metaphor is too ancient. I'm just hungry. Let's keep walking." Xu Yang felt quite tired.
He only wanted to find a hidden and safe place as soon as possible. Escape from the quarry was only the first step. He must find a safe place to recover. There should be a place to hide in Pianmu District. He must complete the rest of the journey.
As soon as he took a step, Falosa grabbed his arm.
"Eat when you're hungry. Don't go any further. Let's stop and rest now." Falosa said firmly.
When she said this, she was like a compassionate saint guiding the suffering people, and she had her unique madness.
Xu Yang turned his gaze to the Pianmu area. It was still dim and lightless, and the darkness seemed to have no boundaries.
You really should take a rest before entering the underground city again.
