"We are in the same camp now. The plan is AIC." Chen Yue groped for the cracks in the wallboard in the dark and answered without looking back.
"You plotted against me!"
"This is the only way to deceive AIC. You know, feelings are its weak point... I found it." Chen Yue touched a loose wall panel and lifted it up. She lay on the ground and put her legs in, waiting for her feet to step on the bumps.
After the uneven ground, he shouted hurriedly: "Get down."
"I don't care...let me have fun!" Mu Su stood still.
Chen Yue laughed angrily: "Is there nothing else in your mind except women?"
"I'm sorry, reproduction is the survival law of human beings and even all carbon-based organisms." Mu Su defended plausibly. "You said I was a hooligan, but I said I was fighting for the great ideal of humankind's continuation."
Chen Yue did not touch Mu Su's logical trap and started another line: "The electromagnetic pulse will not last long. AIC will soon resume control of this area. Are you sure you want to stay?"
In the darkness, Mu Su crossed her arms and said, "If you don't let me feel good, I won't let you feel good. I won't leave!"
Chen Yue suddenly stretched out her hand, grabbed Mu Su's ankles accurately, and dragged him into the wall panel when he was caught off guard.
The wall panel returned to flatness. After more than ten seconds, AIC regained control of this area. At the same time, it was discovered that the two people had disappeared.
[Where are you? Please come back as soon as possible for testing. According to the regulations of the Black Mountain Technology Base, testers who wander around the base without authorization will have all wages deducted. Please think about your next meal.]
Under the wall board, Chen Yue said nothing, while pressing Mu Su firmly in her arms and covering his mouth.
AIC can control everything in the base, but there are always some blind spots that cannot be reached, such as behind wall panels.
[Friendly reminder: You may implicate other testers and prevent them from receiving their rewards. In order to avoid public outrage and being blacklisted by Black Mountain Technology, please show up as soon as possible]
Chen Yue remained motionless.
She was betting that AIC could not break the rules and kill Joyce and others.
She and Mu Su would be out of luck if they were discovered. The moment they escaped meant that they were no longer testers, and the rules no longer applied to them.
Mu Su was also very honest. He almost lay half in Chen Yue's arms, half-squinting his eyes and feeling happy.
"It's time for us to leave."
After a few minutes, Chen Yue let go of Mu Su, took out a hairpin from her hair and held it.
The fluorescent light emitted by the hairpin illuminates the area. Underfoot is the uneven stone wall floor, and the mechanical arms that control the wall panels stand quietly and silently in rows, and you can't see the head, front, rear, left, and right.
The space under the wall panel is not tall enough for one person. The two of them need to bend slightly to stand.
"Where are we going to escape to?" Mu Su asked.
"It's not about running away." Chen Yue's eyes were serious. "Find AIC and then smash this computer bitch."
She found the downward direction of the terrain and led Mu Su through these mechanical arms.
"Be careful not to touch the robotic arm. If there is a sensing module, we will expose it——"
Chen Yue turned around to remind Mu Su, but her voice suddenly stopped.
Mu Su, who was leaning on the mechanical arm to shake his legs, looked up at her with a confused expression: "I just jumped down and the stones got stuck on the soles of my shoes."
"...then act quietly, don't be heard by AIC——"
"oops--!"
Musu screamed. After lowering his legs, he stepped on a pothole and sprained himself.
Chen Yue began to regret why she had to drag Mu Su down.
He lowered his body and continued walking forward, AIC was still calling them tirelessly.
[Missing notice: Two testers are missing from the Black Mountain Technology Base. Characteristics: One man and one woman, young in appearance and unknown age. The woman is called Chen Yue, has short hair, and wears a black vest. The man is called Mu Su, and he has something that can make people ignore him.
He has a bad character in his clothing. He is despicable, shameless and lecherous, and lies endlessly and insanely. He is highly identifiable. If anyone finds out, please stand there and shout.]
"Why don't I uh-uh when it's my turn--"
Mu Su shouted angrily, but Chen Yue, who had quick eyes and quick hands, covered him up.
"It's tempting us to go up there. And if you dare to do it, don't you dare let others say it." Chen Yue shouted lowly, but there was something about the satisfaction of a great revenge being avenged in his words.
Mu Su's struggle weakened, and his eyes were filled with deep resentment towards AIC.
No one can offend him.
No one.
Resuming their progress, the two of them walked downwards through the robotic arm along the terrain.
After a few minutes, they were no longer surrounded by low wall panels and stereotyped robotic arms.
In front of the two of them, there was a vast, dark underground world.
Chen Yue held up the luminous hairpin and gradually contracted and clenched her palms.
In an instant, bright light overflowed from between her fingers, scattering and dissolving the surrounding darkness, revealing everything within a radius of a hundred meters before their eyes.
Countless tiny particles are floating in the air. Without air circulation, they can hardly swim and are as hazy as fog.
Behind the two extremely small figures is a building outline embedded in the mountain of the underground world, with some reflective materials shining brightly.
In the other directions, there is nothing but jagged and strange rocks, only mist-like darkness surging.
Chen Yue turned around and looked at the outer wall of the Black Mountain Technology Base.
Some unfinished rooms can be seen on the edge walls. The wall panels and mechanical arms are exposed at the same time, and they are rusty, corroded, yellow and dilapidated. Some engineering facilities are placed on the open sand and gravel, which are also full of rust, and the feeling of desolation is pervasive.
Apparently no one was working here when AIC suddenly took action 400 years ago.
A piece of gravel was stepped on by Chen Yue, and the surrounding sand and stones were squeezed away, allowing it to leave Chen Yue's feet and roll down.
The sound of rolling gradually moved away in the empty underground world, gradually disappearing into the darkness where light did not reach.
Chen Yue took Mu Su's palm and loosened her grip on the hairpin slightly. The brightness of the light emitted weakened and remained at a radius of about 20 meters.
She was really worried about Shen Musu. If she didn't catch him, there was a high chance that he would run around here.
He led Mu Su and walked close to the edge. The sound of gravel being stepped on followed him around.
After walking for a while, Chen Yue began to become a little strange. She always cast her gaze into the depths of the underground world from time to time.
"Did you hear that?" Chen Yue suddenly stopped, let go of Mu Su's palm, and asked him with a slight frown. "The whispers coming from the fog."
"You mean some bastard or some bastards are hiding in the dark, spying on us and cursing us?" Mu Su looked confused, and then felt his hand being loosened, which turned into anger: "Fuck it! Beat it until it doesn't even know what to do."
Get to know it!”
Chen Yue shook her head slightly: "Maybe I'm hallucinating."
After all, her current physical condition is too bad.
She resumed her progress and walked into the construction area.
Huge cranes and forklifts stood crookedly around them. Chen Yue held her hairpin high and walked forward to the east. Their shadows shifted, lengthened, and swayed slightly.
"Chen Yue..."
Whispers suddenly sounded in Chen Yue's ears.
Chen Yue turned around suddenly, ignoring Mu Su who was looking around, and scanned the surroundings with alert eyes.
There was nothing except the turbulent airflow caused by the passage she had just made.
