Vault 32

Chapter 122 The secret passage leading to the ocean

The slight sound of water flowing was quite swift, as if there was an underground river just below this pothole.But Liszt's brows were still tightly frowned. He listened slightly, and he could still hear that the so-called water flow was not close to him, and there was a faint echo mixed in it. Obviously, this pothole was connected to someone. A rushing underground river appeared in front of Liszt and the others because of the collapse of the cave.

The light was still there, even though it couldn't shine into the collapsed pit, Liszt glanced down and could still feel the huge environment of the cave below, which was at least four or five times bigger than the cave he was in before. More than double.Moreover, there seemed to be other caves nestled in that cave, and the slight sound of water flow also came from the front one. It seemed that the rapid and subtle sound of the underground river should have come here from the small mouth of that cave.

Slowly licking his lips, a soldier of the Marine Corps also leaned over, subconsciously resting the M4A1 assault rifle on his shoulder, looking at the dim scene below, he reached out and took out the tactical gun at his back. Turn on the flashlight with your thumb lightly, and a beam of light sweeps down.And looking at the empty appearance, he couldn't help frowning, and said to Liszt next to him, "Captain, the cave below seems to be very big."

"At least seven or eight hundred square meters, this is really interesting."

The twelve marines surrounded the edge of the pothole one after another, and took out their tactical flashlights in their hands. After turning them on, they formed dazzling beams of light, illuminating the appearance of the cave below. out most.A more experienced marine corps member also frowned slightly, subconsciously pointed the M4A1 assault rifle in his hand at the cave mouth that appeared at the bottom of the cave, and said in a slightly worried tone: "It's almost like a maze."

The formation of karst caves is always accompanied by countless karst caves. This unique geographical location seems to be formed due to weathering or changes in geological structure.But the biggest possibility is that after a volcanic eruption, the air left in the cavity and the rapidly solidified magma left gaps, thus forming these caves.The smooth rock wall can be felt. Although Liszt doesn't know much about geology, he still has some little knowledge to distinguish magmatic rocks.

"It's better to go down and have a look. For us, it seems that there is no other choice."

He was also a member of the Marine Corps. He turned his head and looked at the tunnel behind him. A piece of cracked boulders had been completely blocked there, and looking at the countless piles of rubble inside, he also knew that the original entrance of the cave had also disappeared. With the collapse of the mountain, it completely collapsed.He gritted his teeth slowly, and also clenched the M4A1 assault rifle in his hand: "If we dig this passage, it will cost us too much."

Originally, the tunnel entrance of this karst cave was slightly curved, and the narrow space and entrance could not squeeze a few people at all.If they used engineering shovels to dig in total, judging from the amount of rocks and soil, they might not be able to dig effectively within a dozen hours.Moreover, they are not sure whether a secondary collapse will occur during their excavation, especially for fragile caves, the possibility of continued collapse of soil and rock is extremely high.

And if we use bomb-type blasting methods, I'm afraid it won't take 10 to [-] minutes to directly re-explode the passage. But thinking about it now, I know that if there is another strange explosion on this small island, the group has become Something will definitely happen to the frightened Soviet soldiers.Moreover, this place is so close to the mainland controlled by Canada. Once a large number of enemies come for reinforcements, even their special forces will not be able to resist!

They are all trapped in this cave. If they don't make a decision, I am afraid that when the Soviet reinforcements arrive on the island and a tighter defense circle is set up, it will be even more difficult to evacuate.Although the Soviets are not known for their rigor, the conclusions produced by their mathematical talents have shown that most of them still have a careful side.Once this cave leaks out, what awaits Liszt and the others are only the huge number of Soviet troops and their own tragic death.

"Work in groups of three and move fast."

At the price of 1 point each, Liszt already has three exchanged thick hemp ropes in his hands.He tugged hard at the five-meter-long rope loop, and he couldn't help nodding secretly with that firm strength. The items exchanged in the game system are definitely high-quality goods, and he is very assured of that.At the same time, Liszt handed the three coils of thick hemp rope to the marines next to him. At the same time, he held his own Winchester and looked at the cave below. He said with a deep breath, "I'll go down first."

He didn't use the hemp rope at all, he turned over and jumped down the hole neatly. The height of nearly four or five meters was nothing to him.With just an easy roll, Liszt instantly stood up on the slippery ground. The Winchester shotgun in his hand was aimed at the surrounding darkness. A faint blue light flashed like a star. After waiting for a while, he said slowly: "Nothing unusual was found!"

Three thick hemp ropes were immediately thrown down from above, and at the same time, a member of the Marine Corps had also quickly slid down the hemp ropes. The excellent combat boots on their feet were still effective in this slippery environment.They all looked around with the weapons in their hands, and the light of the tactical flashlight also shook with their movements, illuminating this huge underground cave, even if there were enemies hiding here, there might be nowhere to hide shape.

But before Liszt's order was issued, they all dispersed in a tacit understanding. A member of the Marine Corps was holding an M4A1 assault rifle and a Winchester M1887 shotgun in his hand, and was carefully walking in the seven Moving within a huge area of ​​[-] square meters, the rays of tactical flashlights have already illuminated every area of ​​the cave.

"Captain, I think you should come over and look at this!"

Liszt's eyes were still looking at this strange cave, but the voice of a marine corps member sounded behind him instantly.He frowned slightly, and he didn't hear fear or panic in that voice, only a little bit of puzzlement.And Liszt immediately turned around and walked over, watching the soldier holding a tactical flashlight and shining the beam of light into a cave, and at the same time, there was some unbelievable doubt in his voice: "I seem to see A beer can floating around?"

The mouth of this cave is about two meters long, and the sound of slight water flow is constantly spreading up from the bottom.But Liszt's gaze froze for an instant. He looked at the light from the tactical flashlight. A bright silver object was half-submerged and half-floating on the water surface, and the water surface was less than one meter away from him. Liszt could clearly see it. Seeing that it was a can of fresh beer produced in New York, he couldn't help frowning tightly: "Beer cans? Wait? It seems..."

"It's really a beer can!"

Liszt turned his head and glanced at the soldiers who found no abnormalities, and were gradually gathering, and couldn't help showing a smile on their faces.He seemed to be deep in thought, but he still took half a step back, turned to the soldiers and asked, "I think we should all be able to swim or dive?"

However, the faces of these Marines showed some confusion.But they all nodded. For them, a group of soldiers belonging to the navy, swimming or snorkeling was a training subject.Especially for island seizing operations or river operations, it is much stronger than ordinary troops.And even if it is a river or lake battle, compared to the inland professional river troops, there is no room for concessions!
"Perhaps we can really leave this small island easily, and use this small island as a warehouse for material reserves!"

With a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, Liszt looked up at the two standing lamps that were still connected to the power storage box and emitting light, which were emitting light in the cave on the top floor.He didn't intend to close it, but nodded in satisfaction. The data flow in his hand also spread rapidly with the determination in his mind, and formed a fast entanglement of data chains, connecting all the data in the system. The materialization of items came to this world.

Fourteen sets of underwater combat uniforms, as well as fourteen oxygen tubes and respirators, were placed neatly on the ground next to them.But the spreading data in Liszt's hands didn't stop at all. On the contrary, it became entangled into the data chain and used an extremely fast method to materialize the small and flat tools, which also appeared in the open space of the cave.

"Underwater... thruster?"

Still, some marines immediately recognized the flat and small thing. As elite marines in the navy, they had also heard of this famous tool for special operations.And a soldier also reached out and picked up the surfboard that looked like a small size, but it was actually an underwater thruster for special operations. He couldn't help but look at Liszt with wide eyes and said, "Captain, what do you mean? , we use underwater propulsion to leave the island?"

"No, not leaving the island."

But the smile on Liszt's mouth continued. He took a deep breath, and his excellent sense of direction allowed him to find the direction of the east in this cave.Gently clenching his fist, he also picked up an underwater thruster, looked at the small and flexible structure, smiled and nodded at the surrounding marines, and said, "Instead, use the underwater thruster to enter the Canadian river." , Start special operations!"

PS: I'm sorry everyone, I've been a little busy recently as I write this.After all, my daughter-in-law's belly is getting bigger, and I sometimes have to cook and go out here, so the update will be delayed.I'm a bit busy at work during the day, and it's like this in the middle of the month. I will issue some tasks and force the employees to complete them. I am helpless.In any case, it can be regarded as the completion of two updates. I hope everyone can vote for more monthly tickets, and I will try to update more!
