27, Chapter 27
After that, the doctor said: "Let's go."
Colin lowered his head and walked towards the shuttle bus without saying a word. After An Zhe said "goodbye" to the doctor, he also boarded the bus.
Lu Feng didn't know where he was, and An Zhe didn't see him. He was very busy, and he didn't seem to want to deal with him anymore today. He had probably left.
After confirming that the last two people had boarded the bus, the shuttle bus left the train station along the track. This was the last bus. It was crowded with nearly a hundred people standing inside. Their starting point was inside the building, so it was difficult to see.
It was not until three minutes later that the shuttle bus passed through a tunnel. The sound of rain from the outside came in together with the light. The front suddenly became clear, and a faint sound of inhalation came from inside the bus.
An Zhe's gaze passed through the crowd in the car and through the car window - there was another buffer zone. However, just behind the buffer zone, countless gray-blue buildings with shiny glass rose up.
He opened his eyes slightly.
A month ago, when he first came to the human base, he felt the magic of human buildings. They were higher than most giant mushrooms, extremely majestic and tall - but that was for a mushroom that had never seen the world.
It's grand and tall.
It was different now. As a person who was accustomed to the building specifications of the outer city, he once again felt those tall buildings looking down at him. The residential buildings in the outer city were mainly ten stories high, but the buildings here were different. After he counted to thirty, because
It took too long, and the building had receded and disappeared from his sight, and he had only counted half of it.
At the same time, they were also extremely dense and intricate, intertwining in strange ways in An Zhe's sight. The rain gradually became lighter, and summer rainstorms always moved very quickly. The golden sunlight penetrated the clouds and shone on the glass curtain wall at the top of the building.
Glow.
Anzhe once heard the complete story of the establishment of the base from a poet. At first, it was just the weakening or even disappearance of the geomagnetic field. To solve this problem, people built two magnetic field generators, and the main city of the northern base protected one of them.
It was not until later that bacteria, animals and plants mutated, and humans began to gather to save themselves, and the entire northern base was born. Therefore, the main city was established earlier than the outer city, and many things had not happened at that time. The magnetic field generator and the main
The city was the pinnacle of human technology and construction capabilities at that time.
After that, it’s all downhill.
The mechanical guidance voice said: "Dear passengers, due to the scarcity of living resources in the main city, the lighthouse and the Eden Garden annexed residential area are full, you will be temporarily placed in the military residential area. Please find the corresponding address according to the ID card number and wait for the next instruction.
"
An Zhe took out his new ID card. The card number had changed and was now 3124043702.
3 represents the human base, 1 represents the main city, and the remaining numbers designate the specific residential location.
The people in the car started whispering to each other, and they found that their respective addresses were very scattered.
"I understand," someone said: "People in places like the Lighthouse and the Garden of Eden are not dangerous at work and will not die, so the residential areas are full. However, the military often reduces its personnel, so a lot of positions are vacated, which is perfect for us to fit in.
.”
The rest of the people agreed with this view. Not long after, the shuttle bus stopped and put them down. There were several people who lived in Unit 04 of Building 24 with Anzhe. They walked into the building and began to learn how to use it in a hurry.
Elevator - there is no such thing in the outer city.
Finally, Colin got off the elevator on the 36th floor, and An Zhe came to the 37th floor alone. There were no other buttons above 37. This was the top floor - two doors facing each other, both with white seals on them. An Zhe tore them open
The seal of door 02, swipe your card to enter.
The living area in the main city is obviously larger than that in the outer city. This is a one-bedroom and one-living room suite with a separate bathroom and kitchen. There is a simple coffee table and a small gray sofa in the living room. On the wall facing the small sofa, there is a
The structure and color of the black square reminded him of the tablet he had played with at Boss Xiao's place. He stepped forward and pressed the button below.
"...has been safely transferred into the main city, and the emergency defense state of the main city has been activated. According to the United Front Center, the base will enter a 5-10-year consolidation period until the next generation grows up. At the same time, the lighthouse speculates that external monsters have developed highly intelligent mutations.
This insect invasion is a collective action of insect monsters during the breeding season. In order to avoid the potential danger of gene leakage, Lighthouse recommends that the United Front Center dispatch troops cautiously, no longer conduct high-risk operations, and shift the focus to resource production.
and combat readiness research and development to find ways to overcome the current predicament. Now I will transfer to Mr. Chen, a researcher at Lighthouse."
The interface switched from an announcer in a suit to a serious-looking middle-aged man in a white coat.
"As we all know, arthropod monsters do not have a survival advantage in high-risk areas. However, during the breeding season, they need nutritious and genetically superior animal flesh as a breeding ground for insect eggs. We speculate that this is why they collectively attack humans.
The reason for the base. After all, reproduction is the first priority of the species, and they can do anything. However, how they developed an intelligent group consciousness is unknown. I am afraid it has something to do with some individuals ingesting human genes."
The announcer said: "What do you want to convey to everyone about this situation?"
"It's unfortunate that the city outside the base has completely fallen. But we finally eliminated the possibility of further leakage of human genes, and we didn't leave any chance for monsters to reproduce. This is also a victory." The researcher said: "
What I want to tell you is that there is no need to worry about the safety of the main city at the moment. The main city is the crystallization of the peak of human technology. Its safety is destined to prevent it from being invaded by external monsters. At the same time, you do not need to worry about the future of the human species.
, I got news that the breeding technology has been further improved. The number of newborns in Eden has increased sharply in recent years. The base will enter a period of population expansion. Our future is bright..."
The researcher talked incessantly, generally focusing on reassuring people. After he finished, the announcer connected with a military personnel and asked him to introduce the latest progress of field work to everyone.
An Zhe thought that the news broadcast in the main city was much more detailed than the monotonous broadcast in the outer city.
He found it very interesting. When the news finally finished, the screen turned monotonous gray and started playing some unintentional music, and then he turned it off.
It was already evening. Looking out from the bedroom window, the stars were beginning to appear. In the distance stood a huge cylindrical tower-shaped black shadow. It was so big that it occupied almost a quarter of Anzhe's field of vision, and it was larger than all the other stars.
The buildings were taller, like a huge monster dormant in the center of the city, with the thin aurora changing rapidly around it. An Zhe thought maybe this was the legendary magnetic field generator.
He looked at it for a long time, then opened the door and planned to have dinner. The main city, like the outer city, had collective restaurants on certain floors.
At this time, he found that the seal of the neighbor's house opposite had been torn off.
An Zhe had no intention of exploring when his neighbor came back and what kind of person he was. Today had a thrilling beginning and he didn't like it. He planned to have a peaceful ending.
An Zhe got his wish and calmed down. On the morning of the next day, a message came from his communicator, asking all the civil servants who had been transferred from the outer city to gather at the gate of the Garden of Eden.
Last night, An Zhe read the map and base manual of the main city and learned that there are 20,000 permanent adult residents in the main city, 80% of which are military personnel, and the remaining 30% are scientific researchers and various civilian personnel.
The periphery of the main city consists of armament areas, military bases, aprons, train stations and residential areas, while the interior is the core area, which is an important institution of the three bases.
The first is the United Front Center, that is, the military, which is responsible for dispatching military personnel and supplies. The second is the scientific research center. Its functions are as its name suggests. Because the logo is a simplified lighthouse, it is also simply called the "Lighthouse". The United Front Center and
Each lighthouse has a building, and the two buildings are connected by a covered bridge. The buildings they form are called the "Twin Towers".
The third one has a longer name, called "Breeding, Training and Education Center". It has two functions. One is to provide food and nutritional supplies for the base - An Zhe thought this might be a place where humans grow potatoes. The other function is
Breed cubs, human babies grow up in this place and receive preliminary education. Because the name is too difficult to pronounce, it is also called the "Garden of Eden".
An Zhe's future workplace will be the Garden of Eden.
He looked at the Twin Towers in the distance, his eyes slightly confused.
He was going to take care of human cubs.
Could caring for human cubs provide him with experience caring for his own cubs in the future?
