After descending into a long mine tunnel, Shepard led the team to the first floor, and as expected, there were geth robots blocking the way.
After clearing out the geth robots, Shepard led a team of four to an elevator. Beyond that was a temporary dead end with a force field deployed.
fo
So the next way, there is no other choice but to take the elevator down.
When you get down from the elevator, you can enjoy the view of these honeycomb-like holes. Xie Yuan tried hard to see the spiritual traces of the Protheans after they lived here... But what he could see was nothing but a dead silence.
Most of the "cave dwellings" don't even have a blocking force field to take effect.
That's right...after all, it's been fifty thousand years. It's not always possible to be lucky enough to dream back to the ancient times like Yin Dian's main star.
"You look very sad, what's wrong with you?" Shepard's concerned doubts suddenly sounded in his ears.
Xie Yuan suddenly opened his eyes. At this moment, he had buried all the sadness deep in his heart. He turned to face the female boss with an indifferent smile: "It's okay. I just suddenly remembered that if we are in the next era,
, Will there be a group of people who are also looking here and there in the place where we lived?”
"Why are you thinking about these things?" Ashley couldn't understand why Xie Yuan suddenly became a literary youth, and criticized without agreeing, "If we have time to think about such things, we might as well think about how we can live now.
Even better! For example, how to catch Saren as soon as possible."
"You're right! I was overthinking it." Xie Yuan immediately apologized to Ashley, and then calmly looked at the cave dwelling outside.
When the elevator reached a certain floor below, it ended. Fortunately, there was another elevator nearby, so the team was able to continue riding.
Kaiden was impressed and said: "As white as jade, the Protheans really know how to create a home environment."
That's right, although the outside looks buried in dust, the technological decoration inside can still show the exquisite craftsmanship of Prothean.
And it's a bit ironic that, for the same technology, the technology of the Citadel era is not even as durable as Prothean fifty thousand years later.
When the No. 2 elevator descended to the bottom, sparks suddenly began to erupt from the four corners, and the elevator began to decelerate and brake with full force...
It turns out that this layer suddenly collapsed for no apparent reason!
Fortunately, the collapse was not too complete, but the elevator could no longer be lowered—the four of them had to walk.
But it was just such a coincidence that Team Shepard, who was jumping down to the next level, suddenly heard someone calling for help below: "Uh... hello? Who will save me? Please?"
Everyone turned around and saw that there was a "cave dwelling" in the back with a faint blue force field as the wall. On the other side of the translucent wall, there was an Asari wearing research clothes being suspended in a...
"Bubble" inside.
This was the first time I had seen such a situation, but Shepard did not make any strange expression, but walked forward to face the trapped Asari.
As soon as the Asari, who was suspended in mid-air, saw a human soldier approaching, she shouted at the top of her lungs: "Can you hear me? I'm trapped. I need help."
Although it was already confirmed that this was the target, the Asari Liana, Shepard still asked politely: "Are you okay? What's wrong?"
"Listen," Liana explained, "it's a Prothean security device that's trapping me. I can't move, so I need you to get me out, okay?"
But Shepard did not dare to be careless, but asked seriously: "Your mother is working for Saren now, whose side are you on?"
"What?" Liana was confused and argued angrily, "I'm not from either side!"
Xie Yuan found that Liana seemed to have a... bad relationship with her mother: "Although I am Benicia's daughter, I am completely different from her! I haven't seen her for many years. Please,
Get me out of here!”
Shepard looked around and thought aloud: "We just need to find a way to pass through the energy field."
Xie Yuanze looked at the wall and used a multi-purpose tool to scan the force field generator buried deep in the solid wall... He felt that this place should have been an underground prison facility in the past.
I'll ask Jarvik when I have time, even though it doesn't make sense.
Liana added: "This is a Prothean defensive barrier, I just know it can help me block the geth.
I must have hit something I shouldn't have touched when I opened it, and I'm stuck here. You have to get me out, please!"
Shepard promised Liana: "We will find a way to rescue you."
Liana didn't know whether she heard it or not, but she couldn't wait to remind Shepard: "There is a console here to turn off this thing. You must find a way to get through the defensive barrier.
But this is also the troublesome part, the defense device cannot be closed from the outside, and I can't figure out how you can get inside."
After that, she also asked Shepard to cheer up: "Be careful, there is a krogan and the geth together. They have tried many ways to get through the barrier."
Shepard simply went down to the next level to explore. In addition to a group of geth soldiers guarding here, there was also a piece of equipment that appeared quite reasonable - a laser drilling machine.
Of course, this is an archaeological site, a mine-like environment, and it is normal to deploy a laser drilling machine.
But when Shepard was about to start the laser drilling machine to break through the lower layer, Xie Yuan raised concerns: "Lieutenant Colonel, I just scanned the geological structure here. To be honest, it is very fragile.
If a laser drilling machine is used to drill a hole in the lower layer... it is likely to cause a major collapse, and Starlink will likely have to pay a large sum of money to compensate for the losses."
Shepard had to stop when she heard that it would cause a big collapse, but then she continued to tinker on the terminal: "Even so, I have to drill. This is our only way. When something happens,
I'll be responsible."
With that said, three times, five times and two times three times, five times and two times were used to crack the entire drilling machine's restrictions, and the start button was pressed.
But Xie Yuan still grabbed her hand: "Before you try this last trick, can you let me try two methods?
If it doesn't work, I think it's not too late to use the drilling machine again, otherwise the precious monuments that Saren didn't do much damage to will be destroyed in our hands, which would be too ironic."
"Okay," Shepard gave up pressing the start button, "Generally speaking, it takes 6-8 minutes for a laser drilling machine to penetrate the lower ground to the opposite side, and then rise from the elevator to the target level. I'll give you 4 minutes.
How about it?"
This was a very harsh request, but Xie Yuan also knew that Shepard was worried that the arrow was on the string and had to be fired, so he asked himself to step up.
No longer hesitating, he immediately stepped on one leg and jumped up to the upper level.
"What is he going to do?!" Ashley didn't understand why Xie Yuan suddenly became so... intense, "Did he just fly?"
Kaiden just looked sad: "Here we go again, Yuan's theory of flying bricks."
"Strong enough to make bricks fly?" Shepard looked at Caiden.
"You'll see it later. Let's put it this way. Xie Yuan's slap to kill someone is extremely easy. When it comes to solving the problem..." Kaiden thought for a moment and shook his head, "It's very difficult to succeed."
"Slap someone to death?" Shepard was confused.
Xie Yuan didn't pay attention to the discussion behind him, nor did he have the intention to listen to Liana's exclamation in front of him when she saw him jumping up like flying.
As soon as he landed on the ground, he raised his energy and exerted all his strength, mobilizing his body muscles to adapt to the huge counter-shock force. At the same time, he also began to command the parasitic nano-robots in his body.
Let these nano-robots begin to attach crazily to the muscle fibers of the whole body, increasing the absorption of blood oxygen into the muscles. At the same time, thoughts also begin to continuously vibrate the muscles of the whole body, focusing on the same frequency.
Outside the body, Xie Yuan had already begun to punch, holding his hands straight like a cross, then moving his hands left and right, his muscles and bones accumulating like energy-charged springs, and then caressing the special wall next to the energy field.
A palm.
The generators of the energy generating field are hidden in the cracks on the inside of the wall. External forces, such as bullets, cannot affect the inside sandwich, and even the outer layer cannot penetrate.
Missiles might work, but that would take out almost the entire building.
However...that doesn't mean that this situation is omnipotent.
Taking a deep breath, Xie Yuan roared loudly, raised his left foot, stomped it hard, and then used his strength to slap the part of the energy supply line on the wall hard.
"Prajna Palm!"
"Kacha!" Xie Yuan's foot was stamped into a huge hole, and his entire leg sank an inch.
But the wall remained motionless, the energy field did not change at all, and white smoke that made a "chi...chi..." sound began to emit from Xie Yuan's body. This was a side effect of the temporary overwork of his muscles.
But Xie Yuan didn't even look at his condition. Instead, he looked at the results of the battle with a frustrated expression. He then picked up his feet, turned around and walked towards Shepard who had climbed up. He lowered his head and prepared to apologize to her.
I deeply apologize for wasting my time by doing this unnecessary thing. I am still too persistent and conceited.
What Xie Yuan, who just lowered his head, didn't notice was the horrified expressions on Ashley, Kaiden and Shepard's faces, as well as the horrified look on Liana's face who was trapped in the barrier.
