city ​​of the end

Chapter 301 Core Area

The night passed.

Of course, for the underground, day and night are not really important.However, for the sake of the biological clock, Fei Lun rested for a night before leaving the room and began to inspect the entire base.

Everything here is the same as before, and there is no change at all because of Fei Lun's arrival.

"Ah, Lord Faerun, hello."

"Master Faerun...good morning."

After seeing Faerun, the members of the underground base along the way all smiled and greeted him very respectfully.Judging from their appearance, it seems that they and Fei Lun have known each other for a long time.

And in fact, they did think so.At least in the eyes of the people in these underground bases, Faerun is their ruler.

And the reason why these people have such cognition is also very simple. Just yesterday, when Phelan and others came here, and after they had dealt with Admiral Kaisen, he signaled the old man to gather all the members in the lobby, and then Kaisen The admiral introduced the origins of Phelan and the others to everyone, and then...it was time for Franke to appear.

With the help of Franke's ability, she easily carried out "cognitive tampering" in the brains of these people.Transferred part of the concepts in people's brains to Phelan and others.Originally, in the eyes of these people in the underground base, Admiral Kaisen was not only their companion, but also their ruler.But now, Franka just transformed the concept of the ruler and put it on Faerun, and instilled in these people that "Admiral Kaisen is Faerun's deputy and has been assisting him in managing the entire base." Therefore, in this way, these people in the base directly accepted the news without any resistance, and fully recognized Faerun's leadership.

In this way, it took less than ten seconds for Fei Lun to completely grasp the base in his hands.

Now Fei Lun likes Franke more and more. This familiar is simply a versatile Swiss army knife, and there is almost nothing she can't do.In the past, Phelan didn't allow her to transform casually because Franka's self-identity was not strong enough at that time, and she was easily affected by her transformed form, emotion and personality.But now that Franka has the ability to clone, she naturally doesn't worry that she will be affected by her emotions and should after changing her form.

It's just that after Fei Lun inspected it, he still discovered some limitations of Franka——Ferren originally thought that Franka would only consume a lot of energy when she needed to increase her damage output, but now Fei Lun found that , In addition, when Franke uses some very "unconventional" abilities, he will also consume a lot of energy.It’s like this time the cognition tampering of the members of the underground base, less than 150 people, cost Phelan [-] high-quality energy chips, and on average, two people consume one high-quality chip, which is obviously very not worth it.And Franka also told Ferran that the more she resembles this "cheating" ability, the greater her energy consumption. If Ferran's "logistics supply" can't keep up, maybe Franka Not even enough energy to maintain its own form.

So Ferran resolutely gave up the idea of ​​letting Franka brainwash everyone in Ten Towns. Here are some ordinary people who can't be more ordinary. Those who have systems or ability users on the soil don't know how many energy chips they will spend. At least for now, Faerun can't produce so many energy chips.

But for Fei Lun, the news he got was not only these.And most importantly, even with Kaisen, he didn't get any specific information about the base.According to Kaisen, this mysterious underground city is part of a very large research plan of the government. In fact, most of the researchers who live underground are just the "pre-part" of this research plan. This is also normal. Any huge research requires a lot of cooperation in the basic aspects, just like building a house needs to lay the foundation first. These people are actually here to lay the foundation.As for whether this "house" is used as an office or commercial housing for sale, they don't know.

And some other research projects are more like an exchange. Take the Mars regeneration cycle project that saved the lives of everyone underground. According to Kaisen, this huge research plan occupied most of the research investment at that time. Therefore, it naturally caused dissatisfaction from other scientific research institutions. In the end, in desperation, the higher-level department in charge of the project had to exchange interests with these institutions, allowing them to transfer some very "worthy investment" research projects here for research.

However, no one, including Kaisen, knows what this huge research plan is. They just vaguely guess that it should be some kind of research on biology. After all, most of the people here are in this field. experts.What they do is also basic research work in biology, but no one can tell clearly what they are trying to do.

Fei Lun had nothing to do about this, so he turned to ask another matter—about the nodes.

The reason why Fei Lun investigated here at the beginning was because he noticed the existence of an unusually large node here, but now that he has found this dungeon, it is also necessary to find the node, control and investigate it. Of course.

Fortunately, this time Falun did not return without success. According to Admiral Kaisen, there is indeed a main control room deep underground here, which is the center used to exchange and control the entire dungeon.It's just that he lost contact completely for some reason, and he once sent someone to check, but because of the appearance of those strange ghosts, he finally gave up on this idea.And what is used here is only a spare branch interactive control server, perhaps this is why this place is not affected by the energy node.

But no matter what, the node is currently Faerun's only target, so when he woke up and had breakfast, he immediately summoned other people to go to the central core area where the node was located.

"right here?"

Looking at the heavy iron gate in front of him, Fei Lun frowned, then looked at General Kaisen beside him, and the old general bowed his head respectfully to Fei Lun and nodded.

"Yes, my lord. The core area has a lot of secret equipment besides the computer room. I don't know what's inside, after all, it was built before we moved in. And it has been guarded by special personnel... …”

"Then how are you sure that there are no living people here?"

"We're not sure, but we haven't received any contact from the central control center, and..."

The old general didn't finish speaking, but Fei Lun didn't need him to continue.The fact that so many people in the ground can live until now is entirely because the Mars ecological cycle project has given them enough food to sustain life.And this is just a central core area. It is conceivable that there may be many secrets hidden here, but food and water will definitely not be included.

"I see, open the door."

Thinking of this, Fei Lun didn't talk nonsense, but exchanged glances with Delin, and then gave the order.Hearing Fei Lun's words, the old general also quickly took out his ID card and swiped it on the card slot next to it. Soon, with the sound of "rumbling", the originally tightly closed steel gate slowly opened , The cold and biting breath poured in from the outside, causing everyone to step back involuntarily, only to see that under the light, the other side of the steel gate was pitch black, without any color at all.It seems that the dark hell is quietly waiting for those unlucky ones to throw themselves into the net.

"I'm sorry, my lord, we don't have enough strength to protect..."

"I don't need your guards either."

Fei Lun waved his hand and interrupted the old general. These people don't even have a system, and the only sheriffs have only practiced shooting. In Fei Lun's view, these people can't even be soldiers in the wasteland. If they are not qualified, if they still go with them, that would be death.

"Give me the card, and then you can close the door and wait for my message."

"Okay, my lord."

Hearing what Feilun said, the old general respectfully handed over the card in his hand, and Feilun took the ID card, then made a gesture to everyone, and saw Delin and Franke walking away with Kurona. go out.Shar hesitated for a moment before following the three of them. Faerun was the last to leave. Behind them, the thick steel gate slowly fell. Soon, with a loud roar, darkness enveloped them again. everything.Except for the emergency light shining green above the head, all around is darkness.

"Everyone stay vigilant...Kulona, ​​can you feel anything?"

While speaking, Fei Lun glanced around.Krona shook her head when she heard Fei Lun's question.

"Sorry, Commander, the interference here is still very strong, I can't use my ability well..."

"Then that's it... I hope those ghosts and the like won't come out to cause trouble for us again."

Although the old general said that there was nothing here, Fei Lun didn't think so.Nodes are the top priority of a region, and anything at the core of a node will mutate due to the influence of a large amount of energy. For example, the mutants and information bodies they once encountered in District [-] are one of them. The general said that there are also control personnel here, so most of them may also be mutated.If this is the case, then the next journey will definitely not be smooth sailing.

Thinking of this, Fei Lun calmed down, then he glanced around, and walked slowly along the corridor in front of him.
