Trickster Hunter

Chapter 189 Underground Dock

"How do we know if we don't try?" Yano shouted, "Running up is a dead end, going down may still have a glimmer of hope!"

At this moment, Sun Hang suddenly stopped.

He shook his head and said, "No, it's too late to go down."

"What?!" The fisherman was stunned, "Are you sure?"

"The third underground floor of the Nameless Island Research Institute is a huge tunnel network. Even if we can teleport to the entrance of the third underground floor now, it will take more than fifteen minutes to rush to the nearest escape passage from there. According to the design plan of the Nameless Island Research Institute, after the explosives are detonated, the underground part of the entire institute will completely collapse within eight minutes... So, it's too late."

"Then we are dead, aren't we?" The fisherman's face turned gray, "Damn, I haven't even held a woman's hand..."

"But there is another way." Sun Hang said, "a...'hidden passage'."

The three-dimensional image of the underground structure of the institute gradually became clear in his mind, and a passage that did not originally exist in the design slowly emerged.

"Follow me." Sun Hang said.

…

Relying on the guidance of memory, Sun Hang and the two of them quickly found an entrance that seemed to be a ventilation duct. The liquid metal blade with the "sharp blade" state cut open the rusty steel cover in a few seconds, and a faint smell of sea and rust immediately floated out of the duct.

"Where does this duct lead to?" Yano couldn't help asking.

The underground structure of the Wuming Island Research Institute is extremely complex. There are thousands of tunnels for people and goods to pass through, and there are tens of thousands of ventilation ducts and sewage and drainage ducts. Even if Yano Zhengyi has an extraordinary memory, he can't remember the location and route of each duct.

"It seems to lead to the sea?" The fisherman leaned over the wellhead and sniffed hard, hesitating.

"Go in!" Sun Hang took a look at the load-bearing steel structure on the top that had begun to deform, kicked the fisherman's butt, and kicked him into the duct.

"Hurry up, this place is about to collapse!" Sun Hang said.

"Don't kick me, I'll go in by myself." Yano said hurriedly, walked to the wellhead, made up his mind, and jumped in directly.

Sun Hang was the last one to enter the pipe.

The inner wall of this pipe was different from those used for ventilation or drainage. It seemed to be covered with a special coating on the inside, making it extremely smooth. After being kicked into the pipe by Sun Hang, the fisherman began to slide down all the way. In a blink of an eye, he had moved nearly a hundred meters inside the pipe.

For some reason, the fisherman suddenly remembered the pipe slide that his father took him to the South Amusement Park when he was a child... The fisherman remembered very clearly that he was scared and cried loudly in the dark and narrow pipe. When he slid out of the pipe exit, he fell into the water and filled his stomach with dirty water. He had diarrhea for two days and two nights.

The childhood memories that came up made the fisherman a little nervous, but the expression of his father who wanted to laugh and was anxious after he choked on the water made him miss it a little.

Damn, is he going to die? The fisherman's heart tightened. Why did those scenes that he couldn't even think of on weekdays start to pop up like a revolving lantern?

He simply closed his eyes.

This time, it seems that he really has to go down there to accompany his father.

I just don't know if he has finished eating the red sausages that were baked for his father during the Radonica Festival... He won't be able to eat them in the future...

Before his father died, he didn't complete the task of finding a wife quickly, and he didn't complete the hunter's upgrade trial... This life is really a failure...

If a hunter dies during a mission, the federal government should issue a very generous pension... Unfortunately, I don't seem to have any direct relatives who can receive this pension...

I should have signed a donation agreement earlier... What do the people of Xiazhou call this? Oh, yes, it's called "accumulating hidden virtues"... I heard that it can reduce suffering in hell.

That's not right... People like me, who haven't done anything bad, shouldn't I go to heaven?

Oh, I'm not religious... That's fine...

Just as the fisherman was thinking about it, the pipe suddenly became twisty and the speed of his body sliding down gradually slowed down.

"Speed ​​bump?" The fisherman was startled, and those strange thoughts were instantly thrown out of his mind. He pressed his elbows against the inner wall of the pipe and turned over with some difficulty.

He had just finished changing his posture when the inner wall of the pipe suddenly disappeared. With a huge impact, the fisherman felt as if he had fallen heavily on a sponge cushion.

He shook his head hard, which was a little dazed. He had just stood up from the cushion, and another person fell from above and stepped on the fisherman firmly on the cushion.

"Oh, shit!"

The person who hit the fisherman was Yano, the second person who jumped into the pipe.

In contrast, Sun Hang's landing was much more elegant - the liquid metal turned into a flexible steel mesh to cover the outlet of the pipe. After offsetting most of the inertia, the metal mesh was retracted, and Sun Hang landed gently on the mat, and lifted the other two out with one hand each.

"Damn... I... I think my ribs are broken..." the fisherman muttered in a low voice.

Sun Hang reached out and patted him on the back.

"Okay, it's connected."

"Hiss..." The fisherman suddenly gasped in pain, "It's okay to break a bone. You almost took my life away with this slap."

Yano's injuries on the other side were much less serious, just some skin scratches and soft tissue contusions - when he slipped out of the pipe mouth, he stepped directly on the fisherman's back, causing the latter to directly transform into Yano Human flesh mat...

"Sorry... I really can't control it well..." Yano apologized quickly.

"It's okay, it's okay. I have rough skin and thick flesh." The fisherman waved his hand, "This small injury will be healed in a minute... By the way, where is this place?"

The three of them looked around - the exit of the pipe was a small single room that looked like a prison cell. It was not very large, only a dozen square meters in total. Except for the extremely worn sponge mat directly under the pipe exit, there was nothing else in the room. There is nothing more.

The air in the room was very humid, the salty smell of sea water and the smell of mold and rot intertwined with each other. The mottled walls were covered with mold spots, and a rusty iron door stood at the end of the room, unlocked.

"Underground dock." Sun Hang said.

"Underground dock?" Yano raised his eyebrows, "There is no such place on the design drawings of the Nameless Island Research Institute!"
