Chapter 391: Entering the base
Crash!
The sound of water on the lake attracted the attention of everyone on the shore, and Lucy stood up to see that it was the three Alan emerging from the lake. She waved her hand and asked, "How's it going?" β
Alan made a gesture of "δΈqiΔι‘ΊlΓ¬" before he looked at Garner and said, "We have to clear those blocked stones before we can hope to go in." β
"But in the water, explosives don't work."
"Cleaning up can be wrapped around me, but as soon as the obstacle disappears. The flow of water would definitely pick up, and I couldn't hold myself in the pipes, thanks to Mr. Garner's help. β
Garner nodded and said to Drew next to him, "Go and get the rope and the pickaxe." β
After a few moments, the fat man brought the tools he needed. Garner tied the rope to the pickaxe first, and then tied the rope around her and Alan's waists, leaving a few meters of rope between the two. Jiana pulled the rope and said, "I'll fix it outside, and once the obstacle is cleared, I'll pull you out, and we'll move when the water slows down." β
"Let's do it."
So the three of them dived down again, and when they reached the bottom of the lake. Garner stuck her pickaxe into the ground at the bottom of the lake, stomped on it, and gestured to Allen. Eren swam into the exhaust pipe, and he didn't take Qianjun with him, so he could only take out the Demon Praise. As soon as his mind moved, the source force began to roar in the veins. A flash of light lit up on the blade of the demon's salute, and Eren struck sideways and slashed a flash of flame with his dagger.
The speed at which Flame Breath propelled through the water was not much slower than that of the ground, but due to the dagger, the orange light drawn was only half of the usual light. However, in this exhaust pipe, it was a good thing, and I saw that this light suddenly sank into the rocks blocking the passage. There was a reddening mark on the stone pile, many bubbles rose near the high temperature, and there was a murmur of cracking stones.
Seeing that the blow worked, Alan waved his dagger in succession, releasing four or five flame flashes in one breath. The shimmering light overlapped, forming a grid-like trace on the stone pile. As large chunks of stone are chopped apart by Flame Flash, the pile of rubble begins to hum. Alan swam away, stretched out his foot and kicked it, and immediately made a loud rumble. A lot of rubble leaked to the back of the pipe with his foot, and the water immediately intensified, and in the blink of an eye, it formed a huge suction.
Jiana, who was outside, suddenly saw the rope around her waist pulled straight, and then noticed that the speed of the water around her had slowed down. Drew, who was next to him, saw it, looked at Garner, and made a chopping motion towards the rope. After a slight hesitation, Garner shook her head, reached out and grabbed the rope and pulled it back. Drew made a helpless expression and grabbed the rope and pulled it back. However, the suction power in the exhaust pipe continued unabated, and in an instant, a loud roar sounded, and Allen's color changed. Every second, the body is squeezed and washed by the terrifying pressure of the current. Under the effect of suction, the rope tied to his waist was constantly tightened, making him hesitate to be strangled into two pieces in the next moment.
Seeing that Garner and the others couldn't pull themselves out of the pipe, Alan gritted his teeth and slashed the dagger to cut the rope directly. Suddenly, he brought the water deep into the pipe, and Alan shrank his body, holding his head and face to reduce the area of impact. At the same time, the source force is evenly distributed around the body, forming a protective force field. In this way, he didn't know how many meters he was washed out in an instant.
At the bottom of the lake, the two of them suddenly felt that the weight on the other side suddenly disappeared, and the rope was no longer straight. Garner quickly pulled back the rope and found that the other end had been severed. The rope cut is very flat, and it looks like Alan should have cut the rope on his own initiative. Garner pointed upwards and surfaced with the fat man and swam back to shore.
Seeing the two of them coming back, Lucy jumped up and asked, "What about Ellen?" β
"Mr. Allen cut the rope on his own, and I'm afraid I'm afraid I'm going into the ruins now." Garner handed the rope to Lucy.
Lucy looked at it, threw the rope away, and prepared to go into the water. "Now that the obstacle has just been cleared, the space for the lake to flow through guΓ² has suddenly become larger, and the water is flowing too fast," she said. I don't think it's appropriate to go into the water now, so it's better to wait for the water to buffer for a while, and it's not too late to go in. As for Mr. Allen, I don't think there's anything to worry about. Since he took the initiative to cut the rope, he should be sure of self-preservation. β
"That's just wishful thinking!" Lucy said that although Alan took the initiative to cut the rope, he was washed into the base by the turbulent water, and God knows what would happen. She was concerned about Allen's safety, and she would not wait on the shore until the current slowed down before going down to the lake.
Belmode's body swayed, and he stood in front of Lucy. Lucy was already holding the handle of Golden Rose's gun in her hand, "Are you going to stop me too?" β
"I just think that if the boss is here, he doesn't want you to take risks."
Lucy took a look, and then her eyes gradually softened. Without saying a word, she let go of the handle of her gun and sat down on a dry tree trunk. Belmode exhaled, then looked at Garner. He didn't say anything, just a very flat smile on his lips. However, this smile pierced Jiana like a needle. Looking at the others, Garner suddenly understood that if Alan had something to do with his strengths and weaknesses, he was afraid that these people would not give up.
They wouldn't bother with whether or not Alan had cut it on his own initiative.
Alan felt like a pebble thrown into the river, which was turbulent and turbulent for several years. The body of the stone couldn't help but drift with the water, and he didn't know how many times he had hit it in the pipe. This exhaust pipe is twisted and turned, and every turn is a time to test the strength of Allen's body. At this moment, he felt that the blood that the demon had sucked from the giant beast was working.
The blood that had crossed into his body had not only restored the source power that had been consumed, but also had a certain quality of a giant beast. For example, tenacity, it has made Allen's body stronger a lot. At least in the water of the lake and the collision of pipes, Allen did not lose consciousness.
I don't know where I was washed by the water, and suddenly Alan felt light. He stretched his body violently, his hands and feet spread widely, and a source force exploded, offsetting the force of the impact, and also expelling a lot of water from his body. Alan saw himself in mid-air, with the exit of the exhaust pipe in front of him. The place where the fence should have been installed has long since become empty, and the lake is falling like a waterfall.
Alan began to fall, and he tried to be as soft and relaxed as he could. And at the moment of landing, he actively rolled forward, unloading the force of the impact. After a while, he stood up, and there was a tingling pain all over his body, and the source power was also consumed a lot. He was in no hurry to explore, and found a corner to sit down. Consciously urge the source forces to flow through the blood vessels. Each time a cycle is completed, the source force recovers a few points.
After meditating like this for half an hour, Alan only felt that the source force had recovered for a small time before he stood up.
It wasn't pitch black, but you could see a rusty metal wall next to it, with pipes of unknown purpose twisting and turning. There are some circular luminous objects embedded in it, and I don't know what material it is, emitting a faint light in the dim environment, like stars, so that this enclosed space will not be invisible.
Through the glowing objects on the walls, Alan first glanced at his environment. It's like some kind of compartment, where the water that flows down from the exhaust pipe turns into a small waterfall that flows into a sewage tank below. The water level of the sump is almost level with the ground, but no matter how much water is poured into the lake, it does not overflow. This means that there is another drainage system in the sink, and the lake water must be discharged to other directions.
The floor is also covered with metal sheets, but the middle part is a layer of barbed wire. Alan walked around, and some of the barbed wire fences had cracked, revealing the thick cables underneath. They were buried side by side in a groove, and from time to time one or two cables would glow and then go out.
Alan was surprised that it seemed that the base's energy system was still in place. Along these cables, there is a door that opens open. On the left side of the door, an automatic door that is not fully integrated into the wall blocks off a small half of the space, revealing a gap for only one person. Alan slipped through the doorway, and there was a deep corridor that stretched to the left and right.
Even though the walls on both sides of the corridor were embedded with the same glowing luminescent lumines, four or five meters away were shrouded in darkness, with occasional bits or two of bright lights flickering. Other than that, there was nothing else to illuminate.
The smell of the whole space was filled with a sense of dampness, which made Alan a little uncomfortable. He wasn't sure which way to go when he suddenly heard a strange noise from his left.
Hiss -
The sound of something sharp scraping against a wall made by Alan immediately looked. I saw that in the dim corridor, there were just a few fluorescent lights. In the faint light, something flickered away.
Eren immediately took the Demon Salute in his hand, and it was clear that there was no dead silence in the base. He cautiously groped into the corridor where the strange noise was coming from, and in this quiet environment, he took his steps lightly, but still stepped on the lonely footsteps in the corridor. Alan walked against the wall, so that even if there were any creatures in the base, he would not be attacked from front to back.
The hallway soon ushered in a fork in the hallway, which extended to the left. In the faint light over there, Alan saw a suspicious black shadow flashing again. He glanced in the direction he had come, and thought to himself that the people on the shore should not come down so quickly, so he would just like to see what it was. So he stepped into the fork of the road, and at the end of the fork was a door with a hole open, and the space inside seemed to be not small, and a cool wind was sent out of the door.
Eren took a deep breath, took a dagger and struck as ready to fight, and then stepped through the door. Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the door, he stepped on something, and Alan immediately bounced up and spun off, and looked ahead when he landed on the ground. There was a faint light on the nearby wall, exposing a terrible face to Allen's sight. The muscles of this face had atrophied, and only the skin was dry and the skin was pressed against the skull, and the two hollow eye sockets were directly aimed at Allen, which made him startled.
At this moment, a breeze suddenly blew behind me! R1058
