Returning from the abyss

Chapter 523 Secret Information
Mo Lianren may regret not being able to stop her sister, but she does not delay the business in this scene.Force-type tourists often have profound research on weapons. What Mo Lianren made this time is a large-scale creature hunting weapon that does not belong to this scene, but is also in the technology category.Through the combination of hot and cold weapons, made of strong composite materials, the longest length of each weapon ranges from two meters to three meters, and can be freely unfolded and retracted.

But apart from Mo Lianren himself, of course, the rest of the people need training to use this weapon.

"Thank you, it was a great help." Mo Lianren stood on the production line to supervise, and at the same time had an internal call with Lu Ning.

"If I remember correctly, the technology tree of this type of weapon comes from the civilizations that coexist with giant dangerous creatures. Before the invention of destructive weapons, they will train specialized hunters to use this type of weapon to hunt giant creatures. .”

"That's right, you can see similar records from many written records. To be honest, the environment of the phantom star just needs these things at the moment. We may have to fight some dangerous creatures at close quarters. Apart from special ammunition, I think there are more It is necessary to prepare the next batch of equipment capable of frontal combat."

"Well, since this is your judgment."

Mo Lian was silent for a moment, then said again: "Since it's you, I still have two pieces of information to tell you."

"You still hide your secrets." Lu Ning said half-jokingly.

"Not really, because telling unknown people about these two pieces of information is likely to cause a lot of unnecessary trouble." Mo Lianren sighed, "First of all, we found a base station."

"A base station?"

The concept of a base station is different from that of an outpost. It only operates as a transit core, and does not even require human control. It only needs to continue production and storage operations in a safe place, and provide passing units for supply and information sharing and updating. Can.Such a base station would most likely not be affected by that particular disease.

"Well, I obtained the base station number through the authority of the reconnaissance team. It is No. [-], which means that this base station was first established by the advance team. Most of its internal functions are still in operation, but because the warehouse is full, the mechanical unit can't do anything except for some Except for scrapped materials for cleaning and replenishment, most of them are on standby. It’s just that the things decades ago can’t match our current equipment except for food supplements. We updated the production line information there, and then carried out clearance and reproduction.”

"This part is normal, but base station one..."

"Yes, the next step is the key. When we were updating, we also checked the logs in the base station and copied that part of the logs. It is worth noting that although the loss of contact occurred 15 years ago, but This base station has not had any information updates more than 20 years ago, including warehouse extraction and the like. It has long been abandoned, and the last extraction of materials was the extraction by the No. [-] outpost."

"Let me guess, they emptied the stock in there all at once?"

"Yes."

"Sure enough, Outpost No. [-] planned an operation. How long is the specific date?"

"According to the corresponding time of the phantom star and the alliance, we came here in 15 and a half years, but the timing method of the base station is based on the phantom ephemeris calendar, and there is a certain discrepancy between the two. To be precise, it should be the alliance calendar nine Before the year and four months, the phantom star information update was stopped."

"Interestingly, the advance team has only been active in the entire Phantom Star for 11 years, and the productivity of the base station is basically based on the standard year to fill the warehouse. In other words, the No. [-] outpost basically started to deploy this plan shortly after landing and construction. Come on, they must have found something."

"This brings me to my second message."

"Can you send me the address of the base station? I'm going to have a field trip."

"no problem."

Soon, Lu Ning received the location and checked it against the map. The distance was not too far away.

"The second thing, we saw a suspected relic."

"Suspected relic?"

"If it wasn't for the video recording equipment, we would have thought that we had seen it wrong, or some kind of error caused by a mirage." Mo Lianren sighed, "It's like when the first level was promoted."

"One-level upgrade... You mean the mountaintop castle?"

"Well, I doubt that it is a building that must meet certain conditions to appear. At least it only stayed in our perspective for five seconds, and then disappeared. Lu Ning, whether it is considered from the scene or from the From a tourist perspective, it’s not a good thing.”

"How did your team react?"

"Everyone witnessed it together. I can't hide it. I just warned everyone to be careful and pay attention to all communication frequency bands. Our technician Compass also tried to track it, but there was no result. We didn't stay there for too long."

"...But it should be a fact that there are special buildings on this planet. In other words, the alien civilization that the Canglong Alliance has been wary of for a long time may really exist."

"Lu Ning, there is another possibility." Mo Lianren reminded.

"Yes, the stars in this galaxy have ushered in their middle-aged and old age. There may have been some civilizations on the many planets here, and they may have died or escaped later." Lu Ning thought for a moment, "The existence of phantom beasts, It may have something to do with that disease, or this civilization. The name of our scene is Phantom Star Syndrome, and I think it should be referring to this disease—it is probably the core of the main story.”

"Yes, next we plan to move towards the equator of this planet, and cross the equator line to the southern hemisphere to see what is different. And if that civilization really existed, whether it is native or foreign, it is possible to build only one building Very low, maybe we can meet again."

"Then I wish you success. By the way, Lianren, although it is redundant, I still have to say, don't die."

"Why did you bring this up all of a sudden?"

"Because your state makes me feel a little worried. I have seen too many sudden deaths, which makes me always have a sense of fear about the footsteps of death. Perhaps from the very beginning, my fear of death has not changed. "

After a while, Mo Lian replied: "Don't worry, I won't die so easily."

After the discussion, Lu Ning did not continue to reminisce with Mo Lianren. The third level can talk whatever she wants when she goes back, but the most important thing now is to figure out the various secrets of Huan Xing.She picked up spades and clarinets, and this time she brought bayonets and spider silk. With a half-team lineup, she brought out five speedboats from the production line, loaded them with the necessary things for going out, and set off directly to drive Go to base station one.

The map shows that the base station is located in a Hetao Plain, rich in resources, and there is a large forest nearby, which is much denser and taller than the sparse forests in the mountains.The five speedboats brought up five clouds of smoke and dust, led Lu Ning and others over the mountains, and rushed out of the mountains after more than an hour.

"Yeah!"

Spade is the speedboat that this group of people like the most. It is smooth, high-speed and exciting. The feeling of watching the scenery blur around him is undoubtedly more refreshing than that of Star Wars, although the speed of the two is not the same. Not an order of magnitude.

"Spades, pay attention to the surrounding situation. There are likely to be high-level phantom beasts appearing in the wild. Due to the problem of the outpost, we are still not sure whether the current general danger level classification of the alliance is applicable to them..."

"Spider Silk! You talk too much! I wouldn't make that kind of careless mistake, or I wouldn't have noticed it at all!" Spades interrupted Spider Silk, "You've been sitting in the control room for more than two days , it’s rare to come out and enjoy it!”

"Tsk." Spider Silk shook her head.

"Captain, according to the speed of travel after leaving the mountain area, we will be able to reach the target location in about three hours, but it will be close to dusk by then." Bayonet said.

"Well, we'll be staying at the base station tonight."

"What did you say? Captain? Going out camping? This is really cool, maybe I'll have to revisit my whistling skills..."

"There is no party arrangement, Spade, are you too excited?" Lu Ning immediately dismissed his thoughts.

"After all, I live to make myself happy. It's okay to be excited when encountering happy things, right? Bayonets, clarinets, three o'clock and eleven o'clock, the distance is four o'clock and six o'clock."

Two gunshots sounded, and two blood flowers bloomed in the distance. If you look closely, it is the internal blood gushing caused by the headshot.The two D-rank phantom beasts were killed by precise sniper shots before they could get close.

"Not bad." Lu Ning praised.

"I'll just say it! And after updating the investigation system, I can also take on the same duties as the captain, don't worry—"

Before he finished speaking, a beam of laser light hit him in front of his right, plowing a ditch on the ground. It was an attack from Lu Ning. A mouse crouching on the ground, about the size of a motorcycle was cut in half.

"But one is missing. You are not quite used to the combined data application of particle detectors and vibration detectors. Exercise hard."

"……Oh."

There is nothing to say about the speed of the land speedboat. The only disadvantage is that it is easy to raise smoke and dust, and its concealment is very poor.For example, the five trails of smoke in this field were quickly detected by another outpost.

"Captain Zhao, we found traces of land speedboats in the radar, and the other party did not issue a certification number." A man with a BW-019 number on his chest walked down the stairs and entered a large conference room.There is only one person in this room, who is clicking on the image on the big screen on the wall and typing in the corresponding content.

"Chen Han, you don't owe me anything, you don't have to lower your posture all the time. Even my own team members wouldn't talk to me with this attitude." Zhao Xihua turned his head and glanced at him, "Find a place to sit Down."

"But you did help me a lot before... and as far as I know, Xiao Kong also came to this scene. I heard the news from my subordinates, and it seems that the scene has already arranged our identities."

"Chen Han, the distribution center gathers people who have enmity with each other, just for this kind of thing to happen." Zhao Xihua snorted, "And I hate being led by the nose. I don't have to follow the script they arranged. play."

"It does sound reconciled." Chen Han lowered his head, "But Team Zhao...Zhao Xihua, I can't forget the enmity in the last scene. I would rather take this as an opportunity. And your team also Lost in that fight, didn't you?"

"I know you want to drag me into the water, Chen Han."

"No, you are not a person who can bear it. Although you seem to be good at dancing and making friends on the surface. But I know that once you want to endure someone, that person will die, because not dying is not enough for you to vent your anger."

"Are you consciously seeing through me?"

"Zhao Xihua, I heard about your team when I was at the second level. It is undeniable that it is outstanding in the independent team, but after all, the independent team has a lot of constraints. For example, members from large organizations like Xiao Kong..."

despair.

Zhao Xihua tapped the keyboard and didn't move for a long time.

"I can hear that you want to kill Xiao Kong very much, because your... how to say? His girlfriend died in his hands?"

"A simple and straightforward reason for revenge."

"Xiao Kong is your enemy, not mine. At least, he and I don't directly have a strong hatred. Half of the deaths of our team members were accidental, and they were not involved in that confrontation."

"Designer..."

"Chen Han, I have another opponent, which makes it difficult for me to spare time to deal with your target of revenge. In this scene, except for the person at the end of the hatred chain, no one can escape, any... tourist. "

Chen Han was stunned.

When Tianmu appeared in the sky, the light from the stars also dimmed a lot.This celestial body is so huge that even the reflection effect similar to the moon is not very obvious.At the same time, through the thick cloud and mist layer of the phantom star, it is impossible to observe Tianmuyi.

Lu Ning finally saw the outpost.She finally understood why Mo Lianren could see so many kinds of phantom beasts in just two days. In fact, there were quite a few phantom beasts who came along the way and tried to attack the speedboat. This was because the speedboat had a small target, and only one was the most troublesome. C-level Eudemons, which looks like a horse, but is twice the size of a normal horse. Its back is covered with hard scales, and its mane grows from the middle of the scales. It is as hard as steel needles, and its four hooves can even walk on hard ground. Step on the pit.If Lu Ning hadn't directly ordered heavy firepower to suppress it to prevent it from approaching, I'm afraid this phantom beast could break up the convoy like an ancient cavalry charge.

This is why it is this time when we arrive at the No. [-] base station.

Some "grass" can be seen from a distance. It can be seen from the distinctive appearance that this is a sentry robot in camouflage, and it is naturally an old variety decades ago.After Lu Ning approached the bushes, he began to send the authentication number. After receiving the robot's response, he immediately took over the control of the robot through the alliance authorization, and then opened a path for himself.

The No. [-] base station is in a slightly lower place. It looks like a pile of rocks from the outside. All the engineering equipment is underground like the outpost. After Lu Ning approaches, a passageway opens and lights are lit inside. .

"Okay, let's see what is left here." Lu Ning was the first to walk in the door.
