Asura of Tomorrow's Ark

Just in case, Li Ang asked for the proof of identity from the Supervision Committee before he left. As for whether it was written by the Grand Knight Commander himself, he didn't know, anyway, the Grand Knight Commander's personal seal was stamped on that kind of certificate. In terms of proof, this is enough to prove their identity to any official force.

Seeing that the other party was in hesitation, Li Ang hurriedly said while the iron was hot, "We are only planning to avoid here for a while, and we won't cause you any trouble. As long as the blizzard is a little less, we will leave immediately."

After finishing speaking, the canyon fell into silence, only the sound of howling wind and the sound of drone propellers echoed nearby.

After a long period of thinking, the other party finally made a decision.

"...Well, until the blizzard stops, I allow you to stay here temporarily."

"There is an unused dormitory over there. You can live in it, but... I don't care whether you are scholars or anyone else. Except for that dormitory, you are forbidden to get close to any other buildings."

The other party warned, "Next, I will adjust the logic of the defense system. If something unexpected happens at that time, I will bear the consequences at my own risk. The self-discipline program is not as easy to talk to as I am."

"Of course, we will pay attention. Thank you for agreeing to our request. If there is another chance, we will definitely repay you." Li Ang said a few words politely.

A little surprised, this person is quite easy to talk to. Li Ang thought it would take a little more effort, but he didn't expect the other party to agree to them so easily.

"By the way, do we still need to confirm our identity? The identity certificate is now on the car, and it can be used now for you to confirm."

"No need." The other party replied flatly, "Even if you show the proof, I can't tell whether it's true or not."

"You decide."

Li Ang shrugged and said indifferently.

The identity certificate was originally just in case, it was pressed in the deepest part of the luggage, and it took a lot of effort to get it out, since the other party didn't want to read it, then Li Ang would save trouble.

"By the way, I don't know how to call this lady? This snowstorm may not stop in a short time, and we may have to communicate in the future."

"... Magellan."

Li Ang heard a bit of reluctance from the other party's tone, and he couldn't help being a little dumb.

Magellan... I'm afraid this is also a pseudonym, right?Forget it... it's really good.

"Then Miss Magellan, we won't disturb your rest, I hope you can have a good dream tonight."

As Li Ang and Adele entered the house designated by Magellan, the drone hovered in the sky for a while, and after finding nothing special, it also flew back to a house in the canyon.

"It really scared me to death..."

In the deepest room of the canyon, after recovering the drone from the skylight, the girl who called herself 'Magellan' patted her chest in shock.

Who would have thought that she was sleeping soundly, and suddenly two people broke in?

Blizzards are very common in this area, and Magellan has long been used to the weather here, but this is the first time someone broke into this place in so many years.

"This doesn't look like a scholar at all..."

After exporting the footage captured by the drone, looking at the two people on the monitor, Magellan couldn't help muttering in a low voice.

One person was dressed like a tin can, and the other person didn't look like he was trying to give in, and he didn't look like a scholar at all.

However, Magellan noticed that if she was not mistaken, the Caprini girl should be wearing the latest model of protective clothing from the Thor Industrial Pioneer series. Although she did not recognize the armor on the other man, it was light The materials don't look cheap either.

Shouldn't this kind of thing be placed in a showcase for people to see the data?Does anyone actually use it? ?

It's just... outrageously extravagant.

Magellan's emotions gradually calmed down after he complained frantically in his heart.

It was because he recognized the equipment on the two men that Magellan finally made a concession.

Chapter 19 Explorer

Magellan was an explorer.

That's right, it's the kind of explorer who has nothing to do all day long and goes to those wild places to find death.

Although Magellan was employed by a large enterprise, she was no different from other explorers. She still maintained a strong curiosity about the unknown world. Perhaps the only difference was that with the support of the enterprise, Magellan could have a better future. With more advanced equipment and more adequate logistics, let's explore this ice field she loves so much.

Having said so much, the core actually just wants to express one thing.

As an explorer, Magellan... Her frontal combat ability is very weak, very weak, and most of her skills are focused on survival in the wild and how to keep her own life.

Although the drone she used was equipped with a weapon module, it was still effective against infected creatures in the wild, but it seemed a bit stretched to deal with people.

Look at the thickness of the protective clothing on the opponent. The armed strike module of the drone may not be able to break through the opponent's defense. The maximum power of the laser mining module should be able to do it, but it is impossible for the opponent to stand still and ask her to prepare the laser. ah……

If there is a real fight, neither side may be able to reap the benefits. It is for this practical reason that Magellan chose to make concessions and let the other party temporarily stop in the scientific research.

Wearing such expensive equipment, these two people look more like rich young masters and young ladies out for fun, so they shouldn't be... not bad guys.

"I had already planned to evacuate, but why did this happen..." Magellan grabbed his hair in a mess and fell heavily on the bed.

Due to racial habits, Magellan has a considerable degree of resistance to cold, so she undertook the expedition mission in the extreme arctic ice field.

Magellan would set off every year in early summer and return from the extreme arctic ice field after entering winter. She had already packed up and finished all the remaining tasks in the past two days. When she was about to leave, this kind of thing happened.

Lying on the bed and staring blankly at the ceiling, Magellan didn't feel sleepy after half a day.

"It's so annoying... I can't sleep..."

There were two guys with unknown identities and unknown purposes living next to him. At least for a short time, Magellan couldn't sleep peacefully.

In Magellan's view, it is a lie to go to Sami. According to her past experience, the most suitable season to go to Sami should be in late spring, so that you can enter Sami when summer comes.

And now going to Sami... only to hit the coldest part of the year in winter, what else could it be if it wasn't a brain problem?Unless that's not their real purpose at all.

After lying on the bed and thinking for a long time, Magellan sighed deeply, and then slowly got up from the bed.

Since I can't sleep now, let's take this opportunity to get up and check the operation status of various parts of the scientific research station.

Although Magellan will leave here, before she returns next spring, the scientific research station will continue to collect nearby environmental data during this period. Since the blizzard has destroyed the camouflage at the entrance, there may be problems with other parts .

Before leaving, Magellan made sure everything was running properly.

Jumping off the bed, Magellan walked to the control center of the room.

【The system is unlocked】

【当前时间：1094-11-2903:31:43】

[Fingerprint authentication has passed, welcome back, Magellan inspector]

After manually checking the operating status of each monitoring station, Magellan discovered that almost all monitoring stations had been damaged to varying degrees under this fierce snowstorm.

The most serious of these is the optical camouflage system at the entrance of the canyon, which was almost completely destroyed by the snowstorm.

According to the information displayed in the control center, the optical camouflage system was offline, and the surrounding surveillance system was also broken. Magellan was not sure what went wrong there.

But what is certain is that with the current conditions in her hands, there is no possibility of repairing this system at all.

"This is troublesome..." Magellan showed a somewhat embarrassed expression.

I'm afraid we can only wait until Mingmian spring, when she comes back with a new camouflage system from the company.

Before that, he had to think of other ways to seal the entrance of the canyon... Magellan didn't want to see his beloved scientific research station messed up by infected creatures when he came back next year.

Except for this serious problem, the others are basically minor problems such as line faults. After the wind is a little less, she can take a little time to repair it manually.

After briefly sorting out the damage of the scientific research station, Magellan had a general idea of ​​what he was going to do next.

At that time, after Magellan finished all this, she still didn't feel sleepy at all.

"..."

After hesitating for a while, Magellan really couldn't find anything to do, so he began to look through the data collected by various monitoring stations in the past few days.

This is what Magellan has to do every week, but now it is just advancing this task.

However, after casually flipping through the recently collected data, Magellan couldn't help frowning.

"The data... seems a bit strange..."

She found... the data collected by the weather station seemed a bit strange.

Generally speaking, through the data collected by this weather station every day, the weather conditions within a week can be accurately judged, but Magellan carefully compared the records of this week, and there was no sign of snow at all.

But the blizzard came without warning.

"Is it because of a natural disaster?"

Magellan called up the recent natural disaster report and found that there was no record of natural disasters in the Arctic Ice Sheet generation, or even the entire Ursas, so it can also be ruled out that this is the impact of natural disasters.

So... What is the reason for the abnormal weather this time?Is it artificial?Or some unknown mutation?

For some reason, Magellan always had an uneasy feeling in his heart, as if... some very serious disaster would happen next.

She herself couldn't tell where this sense of crisis came from. This was probably the so-called explorer's intuition.

Is it the two guests who broke in suddenly?Magellan decided not to, and that the crisis must have come from some more unexpected source.

After hesitating for a while, Magellan used his authority to raise the alert level of the entire scientific research station to the highest level. Any creature other than Magellan, as long as he stepped into the range of the scientific research station, he would be attacked by countless self-discipline machines.

As for those two people... Magellan had already warned them, and if something happened, it would be their own responsibility.

That should be all right.

With this in mind, the explorer Magellan fell asleep in less than a minute.

Chapter 20 Midnight Visitor

"It's really lucky. I didn't expect to find this kind of place. This time, it's thanks to Adele."

"Hey hey." Adele smiled a little embarrassedly, "That Miss Magellan is really a good person, we should thank her well in the future."

"Yes, I will definitely thank her when I have the opportunity."

However, Li Ang felt that the other party might not need his thanks. If they could leave here as soon as possible, it would be the greatest help to that Miss Magellan.

"Okay, let's talk about the repayment later, let's think about what to do next."

Adele nodded.

Now the situation outside has shown that there is nothing wrong with Li Ang's previous decision, and the wind outside has no intention of stopping at all. If they don't take risks and continue to move forward, they may have been buried alive by now.

I don't know how long this snowstorm will last. They have to be prepared to live here for a while.

Fortunately, the residence Magellan provided for them is not bad. Although the things inside are a bit crude, all kinds of equipment are very complete. Li Ang also dug out a large heating device in the corner of the room. After starting it, the whole room was hot. Get up so that they can temporarily take off the protective suits they are wearing to keep warm.

This should be a spare room, covered with a thin layer of dust, with few traces of use.

In the room, Li Ang found the energy supply line of this room. The energy supply line here seems to be specially designed. In addition to being powered by the Originium reactor built underground, every room is equipped with accumulators. Under certain circumstances, the warlock can manually provide the origin stone energy.

Most of this power system is hidden underground, with thick soil as a barrier. No wonder Li Ang didn't notice the situation here. After all, there is usually nothing interesting hidden underground, so Li Ang ignored this. possibility.

"I really don't know who built this place..."

In terms of the size of this base alone, it is beyond the reach of ordinary people. Li Ang can't think of anyone who would be free to build a base in such a place.

However, to Li Ang's surprise, Adele answered his question, "I know, this should be the scientific research station built by Rhine Life."

"Huh? How did you know?"

"Because the sign of Rhine Life is engraved on the wall,"

Adele pointed to the opposite wall and said, "Before I came in, I also took a closer look. The other buildings around should be monitoring stations with different functions."

It turns out that this is the scientific research station... The large pile of unknown equipment that Li Ang sensed should be the instruments used by the monitoring station.

Looking in the direction of Adele's finger, Li Ang took a lot of effort to distinguish a vague pattern from above.

This kind of pattern carved in the form of Yang engraving, if Li Ang is not paying attention, he will really ignore it——

It looked like an infinity symbol, but there was a small gap in the middle to the right, and a plus sign and a minus sign were placed in the left and right circles, respectively.

Rhine Life... It seems that Li Ang has never heard of this name.

So Li Ang asked, "Rhine Life? What is that?"

"It's a Colombian company," Adele explained. "Their research in the field of life sciences is very famous. It is said that they have already mastered the method of treating ore disease, but the price is very high."

Hearing what Adele said, Li Ang's first reaction was that this company was deceiving people.

Strictly speaking, ore disease is not a disease at all, but a phenomenon similar to altitude sickness, and naturally there is no possibility of cure.

However, Li Ang didn't underestimate Rhine's life because of this. The other party's rumors like this prove that they still have two skills. As long as they can delay the onset of ore disease, it is already a very remarkable technology.

"Wait, the direction of their research is life science? Why would a company that researches life science build a scientific research station in such a place?"

"I don't know that."
