Star Rank Hunter

Chapter 208: The Underground Base Rediscovered

Xilin and Xiying followed the gray cat into the building.

There are lighting equipment inside, and the areas that Xilin and the others pass will automatically turn on the lights, and they will turn off one by one after Xilin and the others pass completely.

It can be seen that the original owner here is saving energy.

Not long after they walked in, they saw an elevator. When they approached, the door of the elevator opened automatically. The gray cat walked in first, and Xilin didn't think too much, and followed him up.

The doors of the elevator closed and began to descend.

After Xilin and the others took the elevator down, all the lighting equipment in the building that emerged from the ground went out, leaving only the hill-like lighting in the area outside. In addition to the sound caused by the aircraft and fighter planes of the Sixth Squadron, there is only the slight rustle of the wind blowing by.

Shorten and the others were very surprised. If they hadn't seen those monsters before, they would have suspected that there were no higher life forms here. After searching so many places, I didn't even see the shadows of those monsters, as if they had evaporated.

"Could they have gone underground?" said one of the technicians.

"It's very possible, but the detector can't detect the situation under the ground. No matter how it detects it, it doesn't match the reality." Another technician looked at the scan image of the detector, feeling a little distressed.

"These instruments can't be used, so we can only rely on the dispatched people to find them."

Shorten did not let the team members go down for the time being. After all, there are unknown dangers below, and the environment of this planet is very harmful to the human body. It is very inconvenient for people wearing protective clothing to move. It's too bad, so Shorten can't afford to take the risk, and can only hope that Xilin can send the news as soon as possible.

Xilin followed the gray cat out of the elevator. There were passages in several directions in front of him, and the elevator was at the intersection of these passages.

The gray cat had a clear goal, and it didn't hesitate after getting out of the elevator. It didn't explain too much to Xilin, but just kept walking in one direction.

Looking at the construction of these passages, Xilin doesn't think that these are super-civilized buildings. In fact, although these passages can be regarded as solid and reliable, in terms of technology alone, they are no more advanced than some bases in the Star Alliance.

Turning left and right, Xilin has seen some separate rooms, meeting rooms, large restaurants, and auditoriums, but he has not stopped. The gray cat is running faster and faster now, and it seems that the mood will also change. The son is getting better and better, yelling while running.

"Sigma! Here I come! Come out and greet me!"

Sigma?

Who is Sigma?

Xilin looked forward. There are no people and no animals.

"Huh Bielu, nice to meet you."

With an excited sound, a passage wall in front suddenly opened an opening, and a robot came out of it.

If you saw this robot outside the Z star zone, on the streets of those prosperous star zones and planets in the tenth trading zone, you would definitely be laughed at as old-fashioned, old, ugly, and outdated. However, the robot that appeared here made Xilin feel special.

Just looking at the appearance, this robot is more retro, unlike Xiying’s robots that are biased towards human appearance and smooth movements. This robot doesn’t even have legs. Under the cylindrical torso is a hemisphere that can roll in any direction. The head is also a hemisphere connected to the torso. A blue strip of light sweeps around. This blue strip is probably its "eye".

What's so special about this robot named Sigma, whose head and feet almost look like a tumbler?

Tone, movement, and the change of the blue bar when speaking.

The tone is very natural, exactly the same as that of humans. When it said that it was happy to see the gray cat, the light of the blue bar became wavy, which should be similar to the smile of a human, and... when this cheating guy came over The two hands are still dancing up and down, just like the flapping of the wings of a chick when it runs! …

The gray cat circled around Sigma happily, while Sigma circled in place, which made Cillin feel a little dizzy.

"I said, should you two take a break first?" Xilin said.

Sigma raised his eyes to look at Xilin and Xiying behind Xilin, and then swung his arms several times for Xilin and Xiying with a "wow".

"A breath of the same kind!" Sigma was so happy that the blue bars on his face turned into many big wavy lines.

The corner of Xilin's mouth twitched. This robot seemed... with a personality similar to that of a child.

Obviously the gray cat had been communicating with this robot before.

After turning around Xilin and Xiying a few times, Sigma stopped in front of Xilin, and the blue light turned into a question mark.

"You are human? But why do I feel the same kind of breath?" Sigma said.

The gray cat jumped onto Sigma's hemispherical head and stood firmly, introduced Xilin and Xiying briefly, and said, "Xilin is a different kind, but you just need to classify him as one of your own, don't worry about it too much."

"Okay." Sigma classified Gray Cat, Xilin, and Xiying among his own, and then said to Xilin: "The air composition and environment here have changed, so Xilin, you can take off the outer protective clothing. "

Hearing what Sigma said, Xiying did not object. She has already measured the current temperature, air pressure, humidity, and air composition, which are indeed in line with human survival standards, and there is no need to wear protective clothing.

This kind of change only started when Sigma classified Xilin into the category of "one of my own people". The composition of the environment changed very quickly, and it completely changed in a few seconds.

Xilin took off his protective clothing and took a breath of air. The contents of oxygen and carbon dioxide were good, and the ratio was quite standard.

"Come here, I'll take you to visit this base!" Sigma waved his hands and walked forward, no, just roll away.

Xilin is very curious about how it rolls, but when it climbs a flight of stairs, the exposed hemisphere that represents the foot turns into a tooth shape that is similar to the stairs and then it becomes clear when it goes up step by step. Hemispheres can switch states.

The underground base is very large. This Xilin has been mentioned by Gray Cat before, but it is different from other bases in that it is well-equipped, like a complete underground world, and even has a large artificial lake.

"Sigma, have you been here alone all this time?" Sirin asked.

Sigma's voice was suddenly full of sadness, "Yeah, it's so boring, I can only enter the hibernation period, and I won't wake up unless someone outside comes here."

"What about the...inhumans out there? We saw them before we came"

"Oh, what about Lovag? They are guardian beasts, guarding this base. When there are no outsiders on the planet, they will go into a dormant state. Once outsiders invade, they will wake up and attack outsiders."

"Lovag?" Xilin was a little puzzled. He had never heard of this word, and he didn't know what it meant.

"Lovag means 'knight'. The master created them to let them guard the base like knights."

"Which star region's language is it?" Xilin asked.

"It's not here, it's the language of my hometown." Sigma's tone became more sad.

"You're not a Covenant . . . robot?"

"no."

"Where's your master? No?"

"The master is, the master brought me here, and then the master and the others left, and let me stay here to guard," the blue stripes of light on Sigma's face directly turned into two rows of water droplets, and said with a crying voice: " I was left behind by the little lady and the others, in fact, I was also very reluctant to leave the little lady and the others, the master said that unless one day the 'shortcut' was opened, I would be able to leave the base to find them..."....

"shortcut"!

Olilo's cage, the "shortcut" for new life! It was the type of the two star map fragments in Xilin's hand.

Sure enough, the owner of Sigma is the one who left Olilo behind.

Sigma is like an undefended child. It answers whatever Xilin asks. The main reason is that it knows cats. Then it classifies Xilin and the others as "one of us", so that it can almost answer every question afterwards.

It didn't take long for Xilin to know almost all the information he wanted to know.

"Xilin, Sigma said we can use this base!" The gray cat jumped on Xilin's shoulder and said nervously.

"Really?" Cillin looked at Sigma.

"Yes, the master said that as long as I approve, you can use this base, and I approve of you!"

Listening to Sigma's tone, it was more like the excitement of finding a playmate in the future.

"Your master, they won't come?"

"I won't come back, and I won't use this again when I come back. This was originally the old base of the owner, but it was changed later."

According to what Sigma said, the location of its owner's relocated base is the big planet that the army is guarding now.

"Do you want a base? Do you?"

Sigma's blue bar of light directly turned into two big circles, looking at Sigma expectantly.

For sure! How much energy and property the Sixth Squadron has to save from this abandoned base! And according to what Sigma is saying now, this base has been in a state of stagnation and no owner.

"One thing is bad. The environment of this planet is not good, so it is impossible to stay underground forever?" Xilin said with some regret after thinking about it.

"It's okay!" Sigma circled around Xilin and stretched out a finger, "First, this base was originally on the ground, but later I wanted to sleep, so the base sank to the ground."

"So, when your master built the base before, it was on the ground, and then you 'sinked' the base down? How did you do such a large project?"

"Because I'm bored, idleness is idleness anyway," Sigma said.

Xilin's words really sounded full of vicissitudes. A robot left alone, an old base, is really an inspirational story.

The blue light on the Sigma surface became wavy again, the voice was full of joy, and he stretched out another finger: "Second question, this planet has been transformed for a long time, and the environment can be adjusted. The reason why the base One of the reasons that construction is so widespread is to allow it to affect the environment and the composition of the air across the planet."

"Can it be changed?" Xilin asked in surprise.

"Of course, within an hour, the atmosphere, air composition and air pressure can be modified. This is how it used to be. Before the master left, everyone was running outside at random." The blue light on Sigma's surface floated diagonally upwards, It's like remembering.

Xilin touched his chin, and hooked his fingers towards Sigma.

"What? How are you thinking?" Sigma immediately leaned forward.

Xilin discussed some things with Sigma, and asked Sigma not to say the "shortcut" thing for the time being, and made a good confession. After everything was ready, Xilin asked Sigma to start adjusting the base.

beyond the ground.

Inside the aircraft, Shotton stared at the scene on the planet's ground displayed on the screen.

Desolate, without a trace of popularity. There is water on the planet, and there are low-level animals and plants. These low-level animals and plants really don't add much vitality, and the number is very small, making people look lonely and miserable.

Just as Xiaoton was thinking about something, the communication connection with Xilin was connected.

"How's it going?" Shoton asked.

"You will know later, Captain, let everyone ascend to the high-altitude area now, and don't leave anyone in the near-ground area. I will show you the results of this trip in two minutes."...

Xilin said very positively. Although Xiaoton was puzzled, he temporarily suppressed these doubts and let everyone rise to the sky. After getting ready, everyone stared at the situation below, and the people on the starship outside also looked at the picture displayed on the screen without blinking.

Those protruding and glowing hills on the planet's ground became brighter and brighter, and then the ground began to tremble again, more violently than before, and the rocks and sand on the surface were lifted off.

Then, the base that was left behind for more than a thousand years and hidden underground for hundreds of years finally came to light.

Looking at the endless magnificent buildings that popped up, everyone in the Sixth Squadron became sluggish.

The rising base gradually rose up, and the area near the ground was completely covered by sand, but above the sandy soil, the high-rise buildings of the base seemed to be a leader, leading the underground parts to rise upwards.

An hour later, as the sand layer gradually dissipated, under the illumination of the hill-like protruding light, everyone finally saw this underground giant, like an earth dragon breaking out of the ground, as solemn as a military base fortress.

"Xi...Xilin..." Xiaoton's voice was a little difficult. He seemed to understand what was going to happen next, his heart rate unconsciously increased, and he hadn't recovered for a while.

"Wait, Captain, we'll talk about it later."

what else? !

Shorten and the others almost held their breath. Stare straight at the situation on the ground.

For a minute, nothing.

Five minutes passed and still nothing.

Ten minutes, twenty minutes...

"Xilin, what's going on? Nothing happened?" Xiaoton finally couldn't help asking, it was rare for the captain of the Sixth Squadron to be so impatient.

Before Xilin could answer, some technicians on the starship told Shorten with great excitement: "Captain, the atmosphere of this planet is thick! According to the monitoring data sent back by the probe, this planet is changing from a c-level habitability Change to B-level livability!"

In other words, this behemoth unearthed can turn this planet into a B-level habitability state, or it can become a C-level habitability state.

Who has such a big pen?

thump, thump...

Shorten heard his own heartbeat, hot blood flow.

Finally, Shorten waited for Xilin's voice.

"Captain, the transformation is complete, and there is no need to wear protective clothing now." With Xilin's voice, a flat landing field appeared at the base, which was like a temporary port.

"well!"

Shorten let the aircraft land and walked out of the aircraft first without wearing protective clothing.

The purification of the base has calmed down the sand and dust. Now the proportions of the various components in the air are standard proportions, and the temperature is only slightly colder. For hunters like Shorten and the others, it is simply too ordinary.

Cillin was already waiting at the entrance of the landing field. After seeing Shorten, he briefly talked about the base, and then introduced Sigma grandly.

After listening to Xilin's explanation, the first thing Xiaoton said to Sigma was: "Would you like to join our Sixth Squadron?"

Then there was a series of rhetoric about child abduction, which made the blue light on Sigma's face turn into dizzy circles.

Sigma made the right decision, so he asked the gray cat he trusted the most, "Huh Bielu, are you also a member of the Vanguard Sixth Squadron?"

"Of course, I'm still the core combat power!" Gray Cat said while standing on Xilin's shoulder and raised his head.

The core of the fart's combat power! Kari pouted not far away.

However, the reaction of Kari and others is obviously not within the scope of Sigma's consideration, it only adopts the opinions of "our own people". As everyone knows, the gray cat was also abducted by Xilin.

Looking at this fortress covering one-fifth of the entire planet, every member of the Sixth Squadron went crazy. …

How can I know that it is not a blessing!

The main team allows each team to move freely, choose freely, and build a temporary base that belongs to the construction of the squadron. This is also a matter of testing the capabilities of each team. Every once in a while, people from the main team will go to the temporary bases of each squadron to check.

Shorten is already looking forward to the arrival of the home team. I wonder what expressions the home team will have when they see this magnificent scene?

For the people from the Sixth Squadron to move here, Sigma is extremely happy, but the first thing to solve is the compatibility issue.

Lovag is a herd of guardian beasts with chips installed in their bodies, so Sigma needs to rectify the information of these chips so that the two sides can live in harmony.

When the base was still underground, their food was the stored nutrient solution provided by the underground base. The storage solution was limited, so they would burrow into the ground and enter a dormant state as long as there was no one there. There are people now, and in order to get along better, the people of the Sixth Squadron did not hesitate to provide a lot of food to get along with these guardian beasts.

Now that it has decided to set up a temporary base on this planet, the first thing to do is to build a satellite array defense network.

But those things have nothing to do with the gray cat. The gray cat is very entangled now. It noticed one thing: Xilin, Xiying, and Sigma all start with "xi", so isn't it excluded? No, it can’t be too different, but should it be changed to Xihubielu? It's so ugly! !
