Chapter 87 Entering the Base
He assumed a situation, what if the elevator stopped running halfway?
After all, decades have passed, and the elevator has been in disrepair for a long time and there are faults. It is really a normal situation. Originally, the elevator should be inspected once a month according to the regulations. to sit?
Anyway, Chi Heng thought about it, and decisively gave up the idea of ​​taking the elevator.

Although this may reach the bottom layer faster.

Once the decision to take the stairs was made, in fact there was no pain, Chi Heng took the "old man" and "broken copper and iron", stepped on the metal grille, and walked down with a rattling sound.

Interestingly, the emergency staircase he thought was not like ordinary buildings, where three or four meters is a floor space. When this emergency staircase goes down, there is no layered interior space, and the surrounding stairs go up layer by layer. Down, as if leading to a bottomless pit, the feeling of depression in my heart is extremely heavy.

Imagine if the emergency stairs really lead to the ground of the canyon, that is, close to a height of more than 1000 meters, what is the concept?It is equivalent to a building close to [-] floors!

This is far beyond the tallest building in the world. If you walk down, your legs will be exhausted.

How do you see how many meters you have dropped?
It's very simple. Chi Heng opened the barometer program on the watch, and he was able to clearly locate the altitude. At first, it was 1578 meters. After walking for half an hour, he descended 375 meters, and then stopped to rest. He only felt his thigh muscles shaking constantly. Very uncomfortable.

For example, during mountaineering, the pressure on the knee joint is twice that of walking on flat ground, and when going downhill, the pressure on the knee joint is six or seven times that of walking on flat ground. The grille metal plate is very hard, and the shock resistance is particularly strong. After half an hour, his legs were numb from the shock, and he felt that his legs were completely out of control.

"Oops, going downstairs with too much weight, too much damage to the knee joint."

Sitting on the steps, Chi Heng panted, took out a bottle of water and sucked it slowly.

The "old man" jumped out of the backpack carried by "Battered Copper and Iron". Unlike humans who can persist, this puppy couldn't jump down the stairs for a long time.

"Sir, Junk can carry you down."

The "broken copper and rotten iron" on one side did not show any signs of fatigue, but even said something to help Chi Heng.

"Carry me down?"

Chi Heng smiled wryly: "If you are tall... a little taller is okay, you are only a little over 1.7 meters tall, how can you carry me? And there are so many equipments that you need to carry, forget it."

It's unrealistic to memorize yourself, but...

Chi Heng got up and looked at the "stairwell" surrounded by the stairs, "Actually, we should use fixed pulleys."

It's like going from the bottom of the canyon to the top of the cliff, but it's not originally considered that there will be two such systems.

There's nothing you can do if you don't think carefully, Chi Heng has come here, so he can't go back.

After resting for more than ten minutes, Chi Heng set off again. He changed the previous way of going straight down, and instead used the sideways method to go downstairs, and each step was relatively slow, so that the toes landed smoothly and transitioned to the heels to prevent excessive impact.

Although the speed of doing this is a bit slower, it has to be said that the pressure on the knee joints and legs is much less, otherwise Chi Heng suspects that these two legs will not belong to him after he has walked the entire distance.

"It's still lack of exercise."

Since the discovery of "Extreme Realm", Chi Heng has made an exercise plan in his spare time, but it is obvious that this level of exercise is far from what he needs. From time to time, he finds that his physical fitness is lagging behind.

Every 10 minutes of walking, Chi Heng took a 5-minute rest. It took a total of two hours. He finally finished walking the stairs. The barometer showed that the altitude had dropped to 558 meters, which should be close to the canyon floor.

"It's finally over."

The time pointed to 10:07. Along the way, despite saving water, he still drank a bottle of 500ml mineral water.

"Wang Wang."

The "old man" was finally able to come out of the backpack completely, jumped out to exercise his muscles and bones, and barked into the darkness.

It's not that there is any movement, but I just want the master to observe there.

The headlamp and flashlight above Chi Heng's head shone to the opposite side at the same time.

After the emergency stairs have reached the bottom, what you see is a straight passage, a very strange passage, with a height of more than three meters and a width of two meters, with bare concrete walls, no paint, no signs, 30 After meters, it is a door.

This passage is no less oppressive than Chi Heng's [-]-meter-high grille staircase.

Chi Heng pursed his lips, first took out the "Red Dragon" to unlock it, and the "Battered Copper" next to him also took off the shotgun. With Heng behind, he strolled towards the passage.

When descending the emergency stairs, there was no light all the way, all relying on Chi Heng’s headlamp and flashlight for illumination. Now when walking into the passage, the originally dark passage suddenly lit up from the ceiling, which may be an automatic sensor light.

It's just the light source emitted by the induction lamp, but it's red.

The blood-red light source hit the person's face, as if it had stained a normal face with blood. Anyway, Chi Heng felt terrified when he saw "broken copper" and "old man".

The gate at the end of the passage is not a gate in the conventional sense, but more like a circular airlock hatch used by manned spacecraft, but it is larger, with a diameter of two meters.

"How do I open this?"

Chi Heng hesitated: "And, Junk, did you find the elevator?"

There are four elevators at the top of the emergency stairs. Logically speaking, the elevators lead to the ground floor. Since the emergency stairs have gone to the bottom, why didn't he find any traces of the elevator doors?Not to mention four elevators, none were found.

Doesn't this mean that the elevator doesn't lead here?

Just weird.

"Sir, Junk didn't find the elevator either."

"Battered copper and iron" carefully observed the gate, and said, "This should be an airlock with strong airtightness. It can be opened and closed by electric mechanism or manually. Sir, do you need Junk to open it now?"

"Well, now..."

Before Chi Heng finished speaking, the "old man" under his feet suddenly turned around and barked violently towards the back of the empty passage.

"Wang Wang..."

Such barking was obviously threatening, and the furry "old man" arched his waist and bared his teeth, as if he had encountered a natural enemy.

"What's the matter 'old man'?"

Chi Heng was startled, and quickly turned around. The "Red Dragon" aimed at the back of the passage, shining the flashlight and headlights in all directions.

In fact, the high-sensitivity sound sensor equipped with the "broken copper and rotten iron" can recognize abnormal sounds, and the "old man" can detect the movement, and the "broken copper and rotten iron" should give a warning one step in advance.

But the "broken copper and iron" did not find anything, but the "old man" found something.
