city ​​of the end

Chapter 290 Dungeon (II)

The tunnel was longer than expected.

It took almost an hour for the tram that Fei Lun and Kulona took to reach the fifth floor.This is not because the speed of the tram is slow... Well, this can be regarded as one aspect, and another aspect is that during the tram ride, Faerun also had a general understanding of the underground city.If it is on the ground, then this dungeon should look like a huge cylindrical building.The underground tunnel is like a vine, winding down in a circular shape, attached to the outermost layer of this huge base.In this way, every location in the base can indeed be covered, but the disadvantage is that it takes obviously too long.

However, this can be regarded as a chance for Feren and Krona to confirm. At least judging from the stations they passed by, most of the places are intact and there is nothing unusual.Some places have collapsed and there are signs of being flooded, but the problem is not serious.

Other than that, there are no issues here.

If you want to talk about the biggest problem, then it is here that Faerun didn't see anyone, neither the living nor the dead.This reminded him of the historical mysteries described in some street stall magazines that he read a long time ago. For example, people did not find corpses in the ruins of a certain ancient city, and only saw that everything was well placed, and there was no one else. , It seems that at a certain time, this city was completely abandoned by its residents... Well, regardless of whether the magazine is true or not, at least now, Fei Lun feels that the city in front of him is quite suitable. The routine of the third-rate street stall literary magazine, I don’t know why it was built for a huge underground city, but it was abandoned before the construction was completed, and no traces of life were found. Just take a few photos here and write a manuscript. That's enough to mess around with.

but………

Always feel something is wrong.

After getting off the tram, Fei Lun frowned as he watched the originally dark station brighten again under Krona's control.how to say?There is no problem with Krona's ability, and she has also confirmed that there are no life forms nearby, and Fei Lun has no doubts about this, because he has also expanded his own domain, and in the domain, what Fei Lun obtained , is the same feedback as Krona.

However, he always felt that something was wrong here.

The abnormality and weirdness here itself is still secondary, but Fei Lun always feels as if there is indeed something here.This is an indescribable strangeness, as if you feel that there is something uncomfortable in your body, but if you really want to ask you what is uncomfortable, you can't answer it.But when you don't care about it, you always feel that your body is abnormal...

Although it has never been used here, time has left a lot of traces here.The lights that Krona turned on were not fully lit, maybe the lines were aging, or they might be eaten by bugs. Only one-third of the area at the center of the entire station had lights, and it was better on both sides of the road.But in the houses on both sides, the lights are intermittent. From a distance, it looks like an ordinary city.

Just no one.

"Da da da………"

Walking on the streets, Krona made no secret of her curiosity about the city.This is also normal, because this underground city is basically built like a surface town except for the sky.However, due to natural disasters and man-made disasters in the towns on the surface, it is difficult to have intact town buildings after so many years. Therefore, people like Krona who were born after the catastrophe have no idea what the town looked like before the disaster. , Maybe they can learn something through some video materials, but there is still a certain difference between this and walking into it in person.

"Ok?"

When passing the corner of the street, Phelan stopped suddenly, and then looked at a billboard on the side of the road——it was a very ordinary billboard, because it was activated by Krona, it was playing a Commercial on cosmetics.On the large panel of the screen, a scantily clad woman is jumping around, and the surrounding scene turns into a forest for a while, and a grassland for a while, and then there is a bottle of shampoo floating around... Well, these Neither is the point.

The point is that just now, Fei Lun was sure that he saw something shaking under his nose, and then ran away quietly!
That is definitely not an illusion caused by light and shadow!
But………

Even if Faerun was able to confirm this, the feedback from his domain clearly opposed his master's judgment—Ferren felt nothing in the domain.And obviously, Kulona obviously didn't notice anything moving here, otherwise, she would definitely react.

An unnatural contradiction.

Fei Lun turned his head and glanced warily at the green belt and sidewalk not far away, but there was nothing there.The withered green belt has long since left only the remains of some plants.There was no strange sign on the dust-covered ground, but Fei Lun could be sure that what he saw just now was definitely not an illusion.

Although only for a moment...

"commander?"

"It's nothing."

Krona's voice sounded in Fei Lun's ears, and hearing Krona's suspicious call, Fei Lun shook his head, then turned around, and continued to follow Krona towards the central area.

The central area of ​​this dungeon is located at the core point of the fifth floor. On the surface, it is not so much a political center as it is a library or a museum.Logically speaking, there should be security here, but since there is no one in this city, those security devices are of course useless.Even if they can still be used under the influence of the energy network, under Kulona's operation, these devices will only be more obedient than obedient puppies.

"Crack..."

The heavy glass door slid open silently, and the snow-white lights lit up, illuminating the hall in front of you.Like other places, there is no one here, there is only a lonely computer on the reception desk in front of everyone, it looks like it is off work here.

Unfortunately, although Fei Lun also turned on the computer and searched, he still didn't get any useful information.There was no confidential information recorded on it, but some information about the list of personnel was routinely added, and among these names, there were no celebrities in the political circle that Fei Lun knew or heard of.

It can be said that there is still no progress.

"Kulona, ​​is there anything special in this building?"

"I'm investigating, Commander..."

As she spoke, Krona stared wide-eyed, looking at the void in front of her.At the same time, the little guy's hands kept sliding in the air like a symphony conductor, as if he was performing some operation.Seeing Krona like this, Fei Lun just glanced at her, then turned his head to look carefully at the hall in front of him, and at this moment...

"Click."

A soft sound resounded in the silent hall, and hearing the sound, Fei Lun turned his head without hesitation and looked towards the place where the sound came from.While turning around, Fei Lun's right hand swung forward without hesitation, and several scalpels flew out like arrows off the string, stabbing forward.

"Clang clang clang---!!"

The flying scalpel pierced into the wall not far away, and followed by a strange low cry, Fei Lun clearly saw a faint, blue shadow like a ghost It flew out like a bird, and disappeared in the depths of the corridor in the blink of an eye.

"Then, what is that?"

Staring blankly at the fleeing shadow, Krona also showed a dumbfounded expression. She stopped what she was doing, and she stood there motionless like a robot.After a while, Krona seemed to think of something, her body trembled suddenly, and then she turned her head pale and said to Faerun.

"Yeah, Commander, I really didn't notice any abnormalities just now!?"

"I know, and neither do I."

Faced with Krona's anxious excuse, Feren was not angry, because he was the same as Krona, if he hadn't seen that thing with his own eyes, then Feren's induction and domain would not have any response... ...In fact, until now, there is still no response in his domain.

It was as if the strange shadow was nothing but their hallucination.
