Chapter 308 Dungeon (VII)
The elevator door slowly opened.
A dazzling white light appeared, followed by a series of footsteps. When Feilun and others opened their eyes, they saw fully armed soldiers. They were wearing helmets, wearing bulletproof vests, holding guns in their hands, and staring at Feilun and others with vigilant eyes.
“What a warm welcome.”
Looking at the scene in front of him, Feiron couldn't help but whistle. However, they did not show any special expressions. Although these soldiers looked intimidating with guns, everyone around Feiron was immune to such old-fashioned attack methods. Not to mention Delin's force dodge, even Kurona, as long as she thought about it, she could open the security of these guns and turn them into harmless fire sticks in an instant.
However, these guns seemed to give these underground residents a lot of psychological comfort. Feiren could see that not far behind the soldiers, many people were looking at this side curiously. Although they were not wearing anything like blue uniforms, they seemed to be not far apart.
Just as Feilun and others looked at everyone curiously, they saw the soldiers who were originally surrounding them separated to the left and right sides. Then, a middle-aged man in a military uniform walked forward with great strides and looked at Feilun calmly and silently.
Faced with the temptation of the middle-aged man, Feilun smiled and said nothing. The other party wanted to use momentum to suppress others as soon as he came up, but who was easy to deal with? He wanted to see what trouble this man wanted to make.
Unlike the leisurely and contented Feilun and others, the middle-aged man was complaining secretly. He originally wanted to test Feilun and others. After all, no outsiders have been here for a long time. Although they were eager to get news from outside, they did not look like people from their own department. On the contrary, among them, there were men, women, and even children, which seemed to be more like those who entered here. However, even so, they decided to let the other party come in. This was the first group of people from the outside world in so many years. At least they also hoped to communicate with Feilun and others, and at least they had to know what the situation was like in the outside world.
But this is his own territory after all, so the man decided to come up and say first, first and then respect, so that they can know the identity and importance of their people, so that they can cooperate easily. But what the man did not expect was that his approach had no effect at all. The young man in his head directly showed an expression of treating him as a fool, and none of the young girls following him were shaken or weak at the gun. Even the two girls who seemed to be in their teens were just looking at the gun in their hands curiously without any timidity or fear.
Who is this group of people?
After a stalemate for a while, the middle-aged man finally didn't plan to continue to torture. If he continued like this, he would be embarrassed. Therefore, he coughed dryly and said.
"This is the 52nd Research Center of the United States. I am Lieutenant Colonel Dale. Please indicate your identity."
"We are just passing by and don't intend to disturb your peaceful life."
Faced with Lieutenant Colonel Dell's inquiry, Faren smiled slightly, took off the wide-brimmed hat he wore on his head, and then nodded to Lieutenant Colonel Dell.
When Lieutenant Colonel Dale's expression became strange when he heard Feilun's answer. Needless to think about it, Feilun said nothing sincerely, and he was just making up. Passing by? The entrance and exit here are on the fifth floor of the underground, not to mention that there is a terrible ghost outside. Please pass by me and see?
Just as Lieutenant Colonel Dale was about to say something, suddenly, the walkie-talkie on his shoulder made a "drip" sound, and Lieutenant Colonel Dale took a step back, picked up the walkie-talkie, and began to talk in a low voice. Seeing this scene, Kurona and Shael were a little confused, only Feiren quickly exchanged glances with Delin. Perhaps in the eyes of others, this scene was no longer ordinary, but to the people in the wasteland, it was simply incredible - because it means that these people did not obtain the system, but still retained the original communication method!
This shows that they are old humans!
This is really interesting!
Thinking of this, Feren's eyes suddenly became hot when he looked at everyone. No one understood the cause of the catastrophe and the principles of the system. Originally, Feren thought that everyone had obtained the system, but now it seems that not everyone is!
Could it be that systems, like radiation, need to be infected by humans through a certain medium? And these people have been living underground and never went out, so they have not been able to obtain systems? Oh, this is a very valuable research material!
Just as Feren was thinking about how to fool the people here to cooperate with him in the experiment, Lieutenant Colonel Dell came over again and nodded to everyone.
"Please come with me, everyone."
“Where are you going?”
Looking at Lieutenant Colonel Dell, Faren asked. Lieutenant Colonel Dell was silent for a moment before speaking.
"It's the head of our base, General Kesen."
"oh…………"
Hearing this name, Faren narrowed his eyes, a strange light flashed in his eyes, and then he nodded with a smile.
"That's good, let's go and meet this general."
The base's security did not seem to be very strict. There were only four or five soldiers following Feilun and others to walk into the base. Along the way, many people came out to watch Feilun and others curiously. It was no wonder. After all, Feilun and his party were the first outsiders to come here since the base was closed. They also did not know the outside situation and were always eager to obtain some intelligence and information. Now when they see someone coming, they naturally have to come and take a look.
Along the way, Faren also obtained some information from Lieutenant Colonel Dell.
It turned out that all the people in this base were researchers in a research program in the United States. They worked here on weekdays, and because of their high security level, no one was allowed to leave. In fact, they didn't know what happened above. The catastrophe was just a routine earthquake for them, and did not cause much loss or casualties. However, after that, the research center lost contact with the outside world. When they were in regular contact, they did not receive any response from the outside world, which surprised the inside of the research center. So they sent a team of people to check the situation, but... they encountered those ghosts.
These people were naturally killed by the ghost without any suspense, and only a few of them escaped with luck. After listening to their description, the director of the research center decisively decided to close the entire research center to wait for outside support. There were not many people inside their research center, and the rest were all scientific researchers with no power. It was obviously unrealistic to go out and die. It would be better to wait for the outside world to send rescue and then make plans.
But what they didn't expect was that "rescue" had never appeared, but the internal safety of this research center was still safe. What's important is that as a top research center, there is a part of it to study how to build bases and open up land on alien planets. There are simulation warehouses for planting, and there are sunlights, and the energy comes from underground nuclear reactors. The tap water also comes from the underground river near the underground. It can be said that there is nothing short of food, water and energy. The only ventilation issue that needs to be considered is not hindered. Therefore, these researchers took the opportunity and lived here. Many of them even got married and had children... To be honest, if it weren't for the sudden arrival of Feilun and others that activated the alarm this time, they would probably have lived a peaceful life in this underground world.
Fortunately, to put it in an old saying, a peaceful life will eventually be broken.
Feiren also asked what the dungeon above was used for, but Lieutenant Colonel Dell did not give an answer to this question, but he said he was not clear about it. Times have changed, and he was certainly not the original Lieutenant General. He was originally an ordinary security officer in the research center. Later, because the lieutenant general was sick and died, he assigned this military rank and position to him before he died, so he became the so-called "Lieutenant Colonel". He only knew that this research center was a confidential project funded by the state, and he couldn't say what was being studied here. After all, he was just a young security officer before, so how could he understand the same things as the Heavenly Book of Research researchers?
"But I think Admiral Kayson should be able to answer your questions."
Along the way, Lieutenant Colonel Dale's attitude towards Faren and others has improved a lot. In any case, Faren and others did not show a threat to the research center, and most of them are young girls and do not carry weapons. In Lieutenant Colonel Dale, these people have no threat at all.
"Here, it's here."
While speaking, everyone had already arrived at a metal gate. Lieutenant Colonel Dell reached out and pressed several buttons on it. Soon, the metal gate opened with a "bang", and then he made a call.
"Admiral Kayson is inside."
"Let's go in."
Hearing Lieutenant Colonel Dell's words, Feiren's mouth curled up slightly, and a strange smile appeared. Then he reached out, pulled the brim of his hat, and then walked into the room with big strides.
This was a wide reception room. On the other side of the sofa, an old man in a well-built uniform was sitting there, staring at Feilun and others. When he saw Feilun, the old man looked a little surprised, and then he frowned, as if he was thinking about something, but soon, the old man gave up thinking about it, stood up and nodded enthusiastically at everyone.
