A light mist shrouded the blood-red ground, and black-purple vines with long barbs could be seen everywhere on the ground.
A thick and overpowering smell of blood filled the air, raging everywhere in the wilderness with the swirling air currents.
Suddenly, a rolling yellow wind blew up from the end of the earth, carrying the roar of the engine from far to near.
Sumo was sitting in the second car in the off-road convoy, looking curiously at the desolate scene outside the window.
The place where we are now is still within the scope of Tianyuan territory, but geographically, it is two hundred kilometers away from the nearest city where ordinary people live.
As the base of the northern military region of Tianyuan Territory, it is bordered by a large number of dwarf tribes from all over the world, and battles often break out.
Just a few days ago, the dwarves sent a testing team in an attempt to enter the territory, and a large-scale battle broke out between the two sides.
"Why don't we combine our forces and annihilate all the dwarves on the opposite side in one fell swoop?" he asked curiously.
Sitting in the car together were Feng Long and Bao Lei.
Hearing his question, Feng Long showed an ambiguous smile on his face: "The number of remaining dwarves is now less than 100,000, and they cannot withstand another war. Once their numbers are too low and they run away, what will happen in the future?"
It’s difficult to find such useful training objects.”
If you want to occupy an absolute position in the war between human territories, a combatable army with always-on combat capability is definitely indispensable.
In order to maintain military training, other territories could only wait until the campaign to encircle and suppress the foreign tribes was launched, and then actively participate with food, grass and baggage.
Not to mention the trouble, the cost is huge, and half the territory's tax revenue will be emptied at every turn.
But the Tianyuan territory is different, with the alien race of the dwarves from all nations on its side.
Whether it's practicing regular offensive and defensive battles, practicing tactics, or even training new recruits, it can all be done at your doorstep.
This is also one of the biggest reasons why several surrounding territories are still pretending to be dead.
"But speaking of it, once this plan succeeds, maybe the meaning of the dwarves' existence will not be so great."
"It's just a matter of course to free up your hands and completely eliminate them."
In the distance, a giant bunker with walls dozens of meters high has appeared in the field of vision, looking majestic and sad.
Almost as soon as the vehicle reached the front and was discovered, Sumo clearly felt several eyes focusing on it, with a strong sense of threat.
The car continued to drive forward for about ten minutes.
Finally we arrived at the bottom of this bunker.
After some identity matching verification, a small door opened to traffic under the wall of the bunker.
"Going in from here is the headquarters of our Northern Military Region."
"People outside like to call it Beidi City, but we are used to it, and now we still call it Chaoyang City."
Entering the door, the terrain finally changed.
The strong smell of blood in the air began to disappear, and a faint smell of gunpowder smoke appeared.
On both sides of the road paved with boulders are concrete buildings no more than three stories high, with brightly colored signboards hanging on them.
If you look carefully, you can see very few entertainment facilities on the signboard. Most of them are gyms for fitness and boxing and canteens that serve special meals.
"You guys look very excited, don't you?"
Glancing at the soldiers standing on the roadside, Somo blinked, and he could clearly see the excitement in these people's eyes.
Part of a person's character is influenced by nature, and part is influenced by nurture.
Living in a peaceful place, human beings will become more and more disgusted with the same life, and long for the opportunity for change to come as soon as possible.
Living in a chaotic place, human beings will eagerly look forward to peace and to live a stable life as soon as possible.
Very few people can violate this rebellious mentality.
But in this Chaoyang City, these soldiers who are used to life and death and have participated in countless battles can show such a reaction.
"It's so chaotic outside these days. Everyone is so excited and wants to go out and kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds."
"You don't know how fierce the competition will be during the election of the navy this time. Almost all the people who can follow you out are military kings!"
Feng Long was used to this scene and continued to sit upright and look in front of the car window.
The convoy followed the original route and quickly left the busy neighborhood and entered another heavily guarded street.
"I can only send you here, I'll rely on you from behind!"
After getting out of the car, verifying his identity, and arriving in front of a thick silver iron gate, Feng Long paused.
Even though he still doesn't know what is going to happen, look at the methods Feng Tianmin has arranged.
He also knew that the Tianyuan Territory was about to undergo unpredictable changes.
Good times and bad, don't worry, just know it now, the answer will be revealed by the evening at the latest.
"Okay, then I'm going in"
After being checked for contraband by the guard next to him and wearing a special bracelet, Somo walked inside along the slowly opening iron door.
As soon as you step in, the door at the back slams down, making a rumbling sound.
Looking ahead, there is a bottomless diagonal tunnel that leads to nowhere.
On both sides, there are small warm lights one meter apart, illuminating the way forward.
"Awesome, to be able to build such a terrifying underground base under such a giant city, I don't know how much manpower and material resources were spent."
"It is indeed the safest place in Tianyuan Territory!"
Somo looked around and couldn't help but admire in his heart.
No matter how he insists that there is absolutely no danger in the outside world when using the card, Chen Shen and Feng Tianmin will still insist on sending him here.
Now it seems that even if a nuclear crisis breaks out overhead, this place is completely safe.
Humanity currently does not have any weapons that can penetrate the natural defenses of the soil and attack the creatures inside hundreds of meters underground.
Go straight down the passage, and after about a hundred meters, there is another locked heavy alloy door.
Sumo stepped forward and put the bracelet on the sensor.
drop.
The sound sounded, the door slowly opened, and the sight that greeted people seemed to have entered a world full of technology.
"here it is"
The place where the door opens and enters is on a four-story platform.
Looking down from here, you can see thousands of scientific researchers in white clothes hurriedly walking around inside.
There are countless strange-shaped instruments, which are very different from human aesthetics, but they are full of an unprecedented sense of technology.
What makes people unable to take their eyes off the most is a luminous cylinder in the center of the venue that is forty to fifty meters high and emitting a faint blue light.
"No way, this is not what I saw at the ruins of the expeditionary force before. No, this is what I saw in the fantasy that Sudeben created for me."
"Energy beam?"
My mind suddenly recalled the first time I entered the ruins of the expeditionary force, the city created by Su Deben through virtual reality.
There, there is such a light pillar, which is enough to provide massive energy.
So this thing is not fictitious? It is real?
"Sir, please continue going down. This is the first floor of Chaoyang Base. Your destination today is the third floor."
"Is this just the first level?"
Hearing the beep sounding from the place where he just swiped his card, Sumo was stunned, and then showed an expression of disbelief.
We are already 100 meters underground, and we have not yet reached the lowest level of the base.
Yes, with this level of security, I am afraid that even if a meteor disaster breaks out now, it may not be able to completely destroy this underground base.
Curious in his heart, Somo followed the sign going down and walked as fast as he could, two or three meters away in one step.
From time to time, some scientific researchers saw him and were a little confused at first.
But after seeing the golden-red bracelet tied to Somo's hand, these people's faces turned pale, and they quickly lowered their heads and did not dare to focus their gaze.
"I just said that the Academy of Sciences does not look like a place where large-scale experiments can be done. People like Bai Yiqi, Yan Xiaqing, and Ouyang Guo usually seem to be confused and confused. It turns out that this is the real Academy of Sciences and the real creation of science.
A place of amazing technology”
All the way down the stairs to the bottom floor, before walking a few steps, Sumo saw Ouyang Guo not far away who was surrounded by researchers discussing problems.
Being underground, with nothing else in mind, these people were discussing with great enthusiasm. Even if you didn't walk over, you could still feel their excitement.
Next to him, Somo simply searched for a while and found the laboratory area map on the wall.
The entire first-floor experimental base covers an area of 12,000 square meters and has 172 different departments, large and small, responsible for different topics.
Among them, there are more than 1,500 permanent research members, and 2,300 research assistants. The scale is terrifying.
Finally reaching the door that continued downward, Sumo swiped his bracelet and the door opened, revealing another passage that went straight down.
From here, going down, a new door appears at a distance of another hundred meters.
"The laboratory is on the first floor, then the second floor is."
With anticipation, Sumo stretched out his hand and gently swiped it on the side authentication machine.
boom.
The door opened, and streams of cold air drifted out, making him shiver.
"Cold storage?"
This time, the entrance through the gate was on the first floor, but as soon as he entered, Sumo was sincerely shocked.
Looking ahead, the air-conditioned underground warehouse was filled with mountains of blood-red meat, exuding a faint meaty aroma.
Yard after yard, pile upon pile.
Tens of meters ahead, you pass one mountain of meat after another. The amount of meat stored here is simply terrifying.
Even if 10,000 people eat it for four or five years, it may be difficult to consume it all.
"Where does all this meat come from?"
While Sumo was puzzled, his curiosity about the third underground floor rose again.
Hidden one hundred meters below Chaoyang City is the experimental base, and two hundred meters away is the reserve meat mountain.
So what precious things will be on the last layer, the third layer?
Is it the ultimate weapon that can deter Yu Sanjia's territory under the pressure of the box, or is it a self-circulating space that will not be affected no matter how severe the external disaster is?
With this curiosity in mind, after walking in the Roshan Cold Storage for more than ten minutes, Sumo finally came to the last gate.
Different from the first two gates, the security level of this gate is obviously higher.
Just by looking at its color and texture, you can roughly tell that the material used to build this door is at least level ten.
drop.
Still swiping the card to open the door, the downward tunnel appears in front of you.
But compared with before, the material of this tunnel has also undergone earth-shaking changes, turning into a light mixture of silver and gold, filled with an unparalleled sense of mystery.
After slowly entering the tunnel, the door behind you began to close.
Smelling the faint smell of activated carbon filtration in the air, Somo took a deep breath and gradually accelerated his pace.
Thirty meters.
Fifty meters.
One hundred meters.
This downward tunnel did not stop at one hundred meters, but continued to turn left and extend inside.
It was more than a hundred meters further from here, and finally the door to the third floor appeared at the end of the line of sight.
“Why does it feel familiar?”
Lift your wrist and place it on the sensor, and the green command light will sound.
Looking at the scene inside when the door was slowly lifted up, Sumo was slightly stunned, and his eyes suddenly focused.
"this"
The space on the third floor is not large, not even one-tenth of the space on the first two floors.
But in this empty space, looking at the stone house standing in the center, Somo stopped.
"My shelter was moved here?"
The shelter that was originally underground has now been placed above ground, which looks funny and strange.
From an architectural point of view, such "ancient" shelters have long been eliminated, and their safety is not worth mentioning.
But for the territory.
It is indeed precious. It not only supports the entire Tianyuan territory, but also provides the spiritual strength for many people to persevere.
"Eight years have passed, but nothing has changed in my shelter."
After fully entering the space, Sumo moved forward with full emotion, looking back and forth at this familiar yet unfamiliar shelter.
Finally, when he came to the main entrance, he placed his hand on the stone door that had been captured and fused to the Magu Sanctuary.
If the password has not changed, he can now enter the password to enter the shelter and take a good look at what memories time has left on this building.
"Boy, no matter where you come from, I advise you to put your hands down quickly." Suddenly, a gentle female voice came from behind Somo.
"Who?!" Sumo put down his hand and turned around warily to look back. Through the vague darkness, he could see two huge creatures in the corner, approaching the stone house quickly.
There are still people here. No, there are still creatures stationed here?
Soma widened his eyes and carefully used the light above to identify the person coming.
But the next moment, a light suddenly lit up at a high place, completely driving away the darkness of the entire space, and allowing Somo to clearly see the approaching creature at a glance.
"Big fire"
What came from the corner was a huge change of sparks.
The two children used to be happy farm chickens running around in the fields, about the same size as ordinary chickens.
But now, their size has suddenly expanded dozens of times, standing on the ground at a height of two and a half meters, with gorgeous and colorful feathers that make them look majestic.
And, they can actually talk?
"We are the guardians of this building, you can call me Fengda." The big spark on the left continued to speak, his voice gentle and graceful.
"I am Feng Er, no one can touch this building without the owner's permission!" Little Sparks also followed, her voice was a bit sharp, and it sounded sharp.
"Feng Da, Feng Er?"
What was once a pet has become what it is today.
Sumo was a little unexpected, and his expression changed one after another.
He tried to whisper: "Big and small sparks," but unfortunately, as soon as the sound came out, it was harmonized by the game and became a disorderly noise.
Obviously, even here, the game's surveillance has not disappeared, and can still be blocked by hundreds of meters of soil.
"Boy, it's very safe here under our protection. You can start performing your mission."
"Remember, don't have any bad thoughts about this building, otherwise we won't care about your identity."
Walking to the stone door coldly, Feng Da squatted down with a proud look on his face.
Look at its narrow eyes, the various mysterious and extraordinary patterns on its face, and the feathers with sparks flying from time to time.
Although Sumo was extremely curious about what happened in these years, due to the restrictions of the game, he could only nod and sit aside for the time being.
Open the storage space and take out two things.
The first is the details of the transformation compiled by Tianyuan Think Tank. From the first step to the last step, every detail is completely taken into consideration, and it is more than seventy pages thick.
The second one is, of course, the level five terraforming card.
First pick up the details of the renovation and review them carefully, then silently recall some details and compare them with the records.
It wasn't until half an hour later that Sumo's eyes lit up, he stretched out his hand and suddenly grasped the card floating in the air.
