Crane's Ark of Tomorrow Daily

Fate has been twisted, but it has perfectly closed into a circle.

No one can know whether the storm caused by the fluttering of butterflies changes the future, or whether everything that happens now determines the past.

"Damn... my head hurts..."

ACE felt as if a red-hot iron rod had been inserted into his head now, and the severe pain was like waves, surging up wave after wave, intending to drown his consciousness.

He gritted his teeth tightly, and he didn't know how long he held on until he was awakened from his trance by the shrill alarm sound from the protective suit.

But at this time, the pain in his head has weakened a lot, at least ACE has regained the ability to move freely.

ACE struggled to get up, not sure if it was the sequelae of the previous pain, he always felt a little light in his body, as if he had no strength but nowhere to start.

Not only that, the pain also caused a heavy blow to his spirit. His previous memory suddenly became much blurred, as if it was covered with a layer of water mist, and he couldn't recall what happened at all. .

ACE only remembers that when they retreated at the end, they suddenly lost consciousness. They must have been subjected to some kind of mental attack... He can't remember anything after that, but he just vaguely remembers something very bad. .

However, it's okay if you can't remember it, because until now, the negative emotions intertwined with pain and regret still remain in ACE's heart.

Besides, now is not the time to reminisce about the past.

【By the way, the warning sound just now...】

In any case, ACE has successfully survived the enemy's attack, and the most important thing to do now is to figure out the state of himself and others, and then leave here as soon as possible.

Because ACE lost consciousness before, the various functions of the protective clothing also automatically entered the energy-saving state, and now his eyes are completely dark, and he can't see anything.

According to the pre-operation training, ACE checked the status of his protective clothing and quickly found the reason for the previous alarm.

"What... lack of oxygen? Is the oxygen supply module broken?"

According to the data on the helmet, the oxygen content in the protective clothing has dropped to a very dangerous level. The oxygen in the first and second gas tanks has been exhausted, and the content of the third gas tank is less than 50.00%. [-]%.

The oxygen generating module was not damaged either, it just turned on a yellow light and fell into a state of being unable to operate.

"How long have I been in a coma?"

The oxygen supply modules of the protective clothing operate alternately. One set of gas tanks supplies oxygen, one set of gas tanks is used to store the oxygen provided by the oxygen generating module, and the last set is just in case. Now the three sets of gas tanks are almost exhausted. The rest of the oxygen can only last him an hour at most.

[We must hurry up...]

When ACE turned on the searchlight on his helmet to illuminate everything around him, he suddenly realized that the lack of strength just now was not due to the sequelae of the headache, but because of the environment he was in now.

He is now completely submerged in the pitch-black sea water.

ACE didn't wake up from the steps of the spiral staircase as he expected, but traveled thousands of meters and appeared in an extremely familiar place.

In the camp they had spent several days building up before.

However, it seems that there has been a major earthquake here, and there are exaggerated cracks everywhere. More than [-]% of the entire camp has been swallowed by these exaggerated cracks, leaving only some wreckage and rubble floating quietly In the water.

The passage they had come down before had completely collapsed, and a large amount of rubble fell down, completely blocking the exit.There is no way for ACE to clear the channel in a short time without the help of tools or other people.

The underground lake not far away has also expanded a lot due to the earthquake, and the turbulent seawater gushes out from below, completely submerging the underground space where the entire camp is located.

This is also the reason why the oxygen generating module cannot work.

Ordinary oxygen generating modules essentially just collect polluted air and then filter and purify it, and they simply cannot work properly underwater without air.If ACE had been in a coma for a longer period of time, he might even have suffocated to death without knowing it.

"Not good... we must leave here as soon as possible..."

Because of the heavy protective clothing on his body, the difficulty of ACE's underwater activities has suddenly increased countless times. He dragged his heavy body to explore nearby.

The earthquake that happened at an unknown time destroyed most of the things in the camp, and those spare equipment were no exception.

Now, if it wants to survive in this situation, there are only two roads before ACE.

First, turn back the same way.

For the convenience of movement, they put all the removed modules on the shore. As long as they can go back there, they don't have to worry about the lack of oxygen.

It's a pity that this is simply impossible for the current ACE.

Now the ACE only has enough oxygen left for an hour, which is simply not enough time.

So... ACE set his sights on the huge metal equipment in the center of the camp - the shield machine that Amiya got from Rhodes Island.

It was originally prepared to discover the hidden passages that might exist behind those murals, but ACE didn't expect it to come in handy in this situation.

Even the smallest type of shield machine is still very large. Except for some potholes left on the shell by the falling gravel, the body of the shield machine has not suffered much damage.

Even though ACE doesn't know how to control this big man... now he has no choice but to treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

"It can only be this way……"

ACE exhaled lightly, then opened the main control room located in the back half of the shield machine, and then drilled in.

A moment later, the shield machine let out a low roar, and the cutter head in front of the north direction also spun rapidly, rolled over the cracks in the ground, and slowly drove towards the blocked passage ahead.

-------------------------------------

When swallowed by the black hole that suddenly appeared behind him, Li Ke's consciousness inevitably went blank for a moment.

After regaining consciousness, Li Ke found himself in a closed passage, and Yaye, who was caught before being sucked in, was lying unconscious about a hundred meters away from him.

Judging from the material of the passage, this is still the interior of the infinite corridor, but it is not the place they walked through before.

Because it is very important to identify the direction in the infinite corridor, in addition to the buoy sensors used to guide the way, they also left a large number of marks in several different ways along the way...but they have not seen any of them now.
