Chapter 229 Night Fortress, Steel Fortress

Wang Li told the story when he got home that day.

Ye Mu smiled wryly and shook his head, "I thought I would go first, but it turned out that you went first."

Jiang Yan asked nervously, "Is it dangerous there?"

Wang Li said: "It's not dangerous. It's a large military base. I just went there with many colleagues to conduct 'scientific research'."

Jiang Yan was a little relieved after hearing this, but the worry in his heart couldn't be contained no matter what.

After all, Wang Li's return date is undecided.

Fortunately, now that Jiang Yan has Rongrong by his side, it can be regarded as a relief of loneliness.

That night, Jiang Yan couldn't fall asleep for a long time, and then he simply busily started to equip his son with luggage.

Good guy, Ye Mu finally understands where Wang Li's thoughtful personality comes from.

Jiang Hu was stunned to help Wang Li arrange five sets of clothes for the four seasons of the year, and then prepared two sets of mattresses for spring, summer, autumn and winter.

All kinds of food and supplies are countless, and there are more than a dozen large and small packages, as if moving.

In the end, the whole family got up, Wang Li's scalp was numb, and he pulled Ye Mu to persuade his mother.

It's hard to talk about it, but I finally persuaded it.

In the end, it was cut down to three sets of clothes, and I didn't bring any bedding or anything, but I brought a lot of snacks and snacks.

In the morning, Wang Li was carrying two large trolley suitcases and his own big backpack on the road.

Rao has already shrunk a lot, and when Zhou Tong drove to pick him up, he still almost couldn't fit it.

"I will go with you this time, after all, I am also proficient in sealing techniques."

Zhou Tong said while driving.

Wang Li asked strangely, "What about your salute?"

Zhou Tong said: "I have my own room in the Night Fortress, and there are some clothes there, so I don't need to bring extra things."

"Mother Ni is also too worried about you. In fact, the basic supplies in the Fortress of the Night are very abundant, and the only thing lacking is key supplies such as holy water."

Wang Li nodded after listening, but he still didn't say anything, always feeling prepared.

Wang Li took Zhou Tong's car all the way to the outskirts, and then drove north all the way into the mountains north of Shenjing.

This surprised Wang Li. He thought he should at least go to a certain military base to board a military plane first, right?

Unexpectedly, they entered the mountain directly, and then drove into a tunnel in the mountain.

All the way down the tunnel, besides the avenue for vehicles, there is a four-way parallel conveyor belt beside it. Occasionally, I glanced over and saw a figure standing on the conveyor belt and slowly moving forward.

Zhou Tong said: "The conveyor belts are ten kilometers long, and it takes half an hour for people to get down from the outside. We can drive faster, and we can get down there in 10 minutes."

It was down there, they kept going downhill.

This is a huge underground space, and I don't know how much manpower and material resources Youlong Kingdom spent to build it like this.

Zhou Tong said: "It's already been calculated now. In the past, the supplies of the Fortress of the Night could only be picked up by others, and life was hard at that time."

Wang Li was shocked when he heard this and asked, "Is the Fortress of Darkness here?!"

Zhou Tong said, "Where do you think it is?"

"The Swamp of Night and the Fortress of Night are just because they are underground, so they will be eternal 'night'."

"And it is precisely because we have to build the Fortress of the Night underground here, and it is impossible to accomplish such a huge project with the power of the demon hunters alone. In ancient times, we had to rely on the secular dynasty to exist."

"It is precisely for the convenience of supporting us that Youlong Kingdom will eventually set up Shenjing outside this mountain."

"In ancient times, that mountain was not only the first barrier against the invasion of nomads, but also the real front line for humans to fight against evil spirits."

Zhou Tong paused for a moment, and then said: "You know that the royal family of the Dragon Kingdom has always had an ancestral motto: The Son of Heaven guards the gate of the country!"

Wang Li admired his ancestors, but he also became nervous.

Because he found that once this place falls, Shenjing will be the first to suffer the disaster!
And if Shenjing falls, what should his mother do?
Wang Li immediately became serious.

He also has a deep understanding of the significance of the existence of the Fortress of the Night.

He raised his head and opened it again, only to find that the cave is very high and far away, and the underground space is bigger than imagined.

Zhou Tong added: "In addition to logistics vehicles, this is also the access channel for transport aircraft, so it must be made so large."

Wang Li said: "Is this the only channel? If there is a problem with the channel, wouldn't it be very bad?"

Zhou Tong said: "There are more than a dozen shafts that can directly lead to the outside world, and there is also a secret subway line in Shenjing that can lead to here."

"However, that subway line is an emergency passage, and it will not be activated rashly unless it is necessary."

Wang Li nodded after hearing this, completely convinced of this vast project hidden underground.

Ten minutes later, their road deviated and entered another slightly narrower passage. When the roads intersected, Wang Li indeed saw a large runway for military planes to take off and land.

That was on the upper floor, and what they were going to was the lower floor area. In the end, Wang Li couldn't tell the direction.

Zhou Tong's car stopped in a spacious garage, surrounded by camouflage military transport vehicles, Zhou Tong's car looked petite and exquisite.

Wang Li was led by Zhou Tong and walked into the base carrying his own salute.

It is all steel structures, and LED lighting illuminates the interior of the entire base brightly.

But after the initial novelty passed, Wang Li felt an unusual depression.

There are some staff members who are in a hurry.

None of them smiled and looked very serious.

Another very obvious performance is that these people subconsciously tilt their heads slightly forward, as if there is some heavy pressure on their necks.

Zhou Tong said: "In fact, this place is already within the influence range of the evil. The outer walls of the Fortress of the Night are protected by a high-density lead layer, which finally isolates part of the influence of the evil."

"You won't hear whispers of evil here, but you can't avoid this gloomy atmosphere after all, especially after the use of holy water is tightened now."

Wang Li asked curiously: "There should be spirit formation masters in the base, why not set up some spirit formations that can dispel this gloom?"

Zhou Tong said: "You are talking about the spiritual array of the light system, right? Turning on all the spiritual arrays of the light system can indeed dispel this gloom, but do you know how much loss it will cause?"

Wang Li stopped talking, he knew that must be an astronomical figure.

Even the spirit formations set up in his own home are usually opened for early warning, and some powerful spirit formations have never been fully activated.

Of course, now that he has just harvested a large amount of spiritual material, it can be wasted.

But with such a large underground space and so many facilities in the Fortress of the Night, how much spiritual material would be consumed if all the spirit arrays were to be activated to purify the gloomy atmosphere.

Zhou Tong said: "I will take you to your room first, and then take you directly to your work place. There is no time for us to waste."

Wang Li nodded obediently, he knew what was most important now.
