Chapter 962: This Way Doesn't Work

Near the base evacuation area.

The situation here was a mess, and after coming out of the Odin Hall, Zuo Chen and his party from the Operations Department of the Sky Curtain Company picked the most reliable shortcut, trying to avoid the mutant guard group. Unlike Long Yun and his party led by Fenrir, without Fenrir's presence, those bloodthirsty mutant guards would have attacked them like crazy.

From the Odin Hall to the entrance of the nearest alchemy passage, it was only a short one hundred and fifty meters, but it only took ten seconds to run through the road, and the members of the Operations Department of the Sky Curtain Company and the four demon hunters were almost exhausted.

They were almost pushed into the teleportation elevator of the alchemy passage by the tide of mutant close-guards, and when Finch used a hunting knife to cut off the head of one of the mutant guards closest to him, Zuo Chen seized the opportunity to activate the teleportation elevator, and the door was closed, and almost everyone sat on the ground at the same time, almost collapsing en masse.

The elevator was filled with a strong fishy stench, and the blood splattered from the mutant guards' bodies sprayed everyone, and the ground was sticky as if it had been coated with a layer of paste.

"Does this passage go straight to the evacuation area?" Falcon wiped a handful of sticky blood from his face, threw them to the ground in disgust, and asked Zuo Chen, who was squatting next to him looking at the map.

"It's not that simple, the whole base is like a labyrinth, the area is unbelievably large, this is the space that has been compressed by alchemy, and the space of the same cube may be thousands of times larger than the outside, so basically there will be no through trains." Zuo Chen pointed to the dense lines on the construction map and said: "If we take a wrong step and get lost again, there is only one result of getting lost in this situation, and that is death." ”

"Don't talk so much, let me ask you, the nearest exit to the evacuation area, if we go out, how far will we have to go to reach our destination before we can get on the escape boat?" Hayabusa said irritably.

"There are two nearest exits, exit A is 300 meters from the evacuation area and exit B is 500 meters from the evacuation area." Zuo Chen put away the map and said, "We now pray to the gods and worship the Buddha, I hope there won't be too many mutant guards outside the exit, otherwise it will ......"

He turned his head and swept around everyone, and now it seemed that everyone had reached the point of exhaustion, the ammunition had long been exhausted, and the rest could only rely on the cold weapons in their hands to fight hand-to-hand, and these damn mutant guards had extremely high physical strength and a large number, except for the Grammer Holy Sword in Neo's hand, almost everyone's knives had different degrees of curly blades.

"It's going to be 300 meters ...... recently" Falcon remembered that just 150 meters had almost wiped out the whole army, but this time he had to break through the distance of 300 meters, and it was not worth mentioning when he usually looked at the distance, and now every meter he advanced could be killed.

The teleportation elevator kept rising in the darkness, sliding along the alchemy passage at a speed that could be felt quite fast, and there was a low hum that filled the entire space. Liquid suddenly fell from his head and fell to the floor in a dripping hole.

"What's that?" Finch reached out, caught the liquid, and sniffed it under his nostrils.

"Is it seawater?" He stuck out his tongue, licked the liquid, and said with certainty, "It's seawater." ”

"There's a leak here?" Lanstrow stood up and looked up at the top of the teleportation elevator, and sure enough, in the dim light, sea water continued to seep in, and it seemed to get worse and worse.

"We're running out of time." Zuo Chen sighed, "The entire base is on the verge of collapse, remember when I said that this is a compressed space?" Now that it's starting to leak, it's proof that the entire base is going to be scattered. ”

"Scattered?" Hayabusa felt that there was a bad premonition in Zuo Chen's words.

"The self-destruct program is not actually a bomb, and it does not need a bomb at all, the whole base itself is a most terrible bomb." Zuo Chen said expressionlessly: "You can give full play to your imagination, a cubic space here may be a thousand cubic meters or even larger outside, and the reason why this base created by alchemy technology can compress the space is not only because of the powerful alchemy technology, but also because of more powerful energy." The alchemy technology of compressing space relies on huge amounts of electricity, and the 'jellyfish' base actually relies on nuclear power technology to maintain huge power consumption, and the role of the self-destruct system is only to cut off the power supply......"

Hayabusa was still confused at first, but finally suddenly understood, and screamed: "If the power is cut off, the compressed space of the entire base will expand in an instant...... That would mean an explosion ......"

Zuo Chen nodded, and said with an expression of "You have finally opened your mind": "That's right, the entire base is made of metal, these metals are enchanted through alchemy technology, and the runes and patterns engraved on them are actually a kind of alchemy spells, they can store a certain amount of power, but after the power supply is cut off, they can only last for a certain time, which is why they didn't explode immediately, but now it seems that the electricity is close to running out, so the gap between the metal plates is opened, the next step." ……”

He made an explosive gesture with both hands on his chest, "The next step is a complete collapse." ”

Dingβ€”β€”

The elevator stopped.

Everyone nervously got up from the ground.

Zuo Chen looked at the people around him and said, "This is Exit A, I hope we have good luck, I hope there are no mutants outside." ”

After a moment of silence, he nodded at everyone and said, "All ready?" I'll open the door when I'm ready. ”

Everyone looks at me, I look at you, clenched the weapons in their hands, and finally nodded together: "Open the door!" ”

Zuo Chen flashed to the side, quickly pressed the runes in different orders on the wall, and as the last rune of Lunas lit up and went out again, the elevator door snorted open.

There was a strange trilling sound in everyone's breath, and there was some kind of danger hidden behind the door, which made people feel oppressive and suffocating.

Is this a way of life or a way of death? This craps-like feeling haunts everyone's mind, as if there is a spinning dice in your mind, and you don't know which side it stops on.

However, there are only two different outcomes for a plane on this dice – life or death.

Dingβ€”β€”

The door finally opened completely.

It was dark outside, there was hardly any light, and the heavy darkness obscured everything and affected everyone's view, and the sea water seeped into the ceiling and kept dripping on the ground, as if it were raining heavily.

Falcon's heart suddenly beat wildly, and he felt the fluff on his face stand up in patches, and his face turned white.

Before no one could see what was going on outside, he could, because he unleashed his talent, the moth.

Breathe sounds! Heavy breathing! And a lot! The falcon sensed at least a thousand different breaths outside!

"Doctorβ€”"

As soon as he opened his mouth to warn, countless "lights" suddenly lit up in the darkness outside, and red lamps like rubies suddenly appeared, just like a friend gave you a surprise to celebrate your birthday and suddenly turned on all the colored lights.

However, there was no "Happy Birthday" message, no celebration of flying streamers, and everyone was greeted by the baby-like screams of mutant guards.

Thousands of mutated guards found the people in the elevator at the same time, and the nearest guard mutant was standing next to the elevator exit, they were also a little confused, and they didn't react for a while, but they all turned around and cast their eyes into the elevator.

The members of the Sky Canopy Company in the elevator and the thousands of mutant guards outside the elevator stared at each other at the same time, and time suddenly stood still, and the silence was a little comical and terrifying.
