The Earth People are so Fierce

The two took the lifting platform and slowly descended.

Meng Chao noticed that this lifting platform uses a purely mechanical structure. In addition to the psychic power system similar to a winch, it also has a human control system using cranks and pedals.

The whole machine looks stupid, thick and black, and extremely sturdy, ensuring maximum safety and stability in an environment where psychic interference is severe and materials are deformed at any time.

Almost all the buildings and facilities at the bottom of the underground space are in this style. They are clumsy, thick, heavy, and sturdy. There are a lot of gears, chains, and criss-crossing pipes exposed. When many pipes scream sharply, they will There was a burst of colorful spiritual energy gushing out, so that the entire space was immersed in the richness.

Except for the slightly different construction style, this place is like a combination of the university town where the Five Schools Alliance is located and the military base in Longcheng Jiangnan District.

The hard-top tents with silver shells lined up one after the other. Many tents were painted with lightning, flames or cross-skull skulls hanging outside, representing "extremely dangerous, no entry" signs, and similar mechanical malfunctions and artillery roars were heard inside. Roaring with monsters... all kinds of weird sounds.

Beside these silver tents, Meng Chao also saw many strange things dug out from the ground.

There is a relic like the legendary "Sword Tomb", densely packed with hundreds of strangely shaped swords.

Although these swords are rusty and even twisted, not to mention the sharp edges, even the runes engraved on the surface are blurred, but there are still bunches of murderous spirits rising into the sky, like endless souls lingering in the sword. , Trying to break through the rusty seal, descended to today's Dragon City.

Judging from the size of these swords, they don't seem to be prepared for people on earth who are less than two meters tall.

It seems to be several times larger than human beings, armed with the wisdom life of ancient times.

At this moment, some scientists are busy around the sword grave.

They carefully scraped the corroded metal powder from the Primordial Sword, analyzed the composition, and cleaned and rubbed the runes on the sword.

Refining the metal components of the ancient swords can help Dragon City's new cold weapon forging technology, and these runes, combined with the agitation of the spar, can greatly increase the power and range of the cold weapon.

There is also a ruin, buried in countless fragmented war machinery.

Judging from the shape of the wreckage, it looks like a six-legged crab-shaped rune machine made by Dragon City, but it is larger and more ancient than human rune machines.

The rattling weapons attached to the wreckage, after tens of thousands of years of erosion, can still shrink Meng Chao's pupils, not to mention the murderous aura emanating from the depths of the machine, resembling a beast.

It's like... still alive.

Staring deeply at the wreckage of this ancient war machine, Meng Chao seemed to hear the roar of the ancient war, and suddenly saw a picture that was painted with blood and flames that was a hundred times more magnificent and brutal than the monster war.

"Is this... the call of the ancients?"

Meng Chao took a deep breath to calm himself down.

In order to divert his attention, he cast his gaze to the center of the underground space.

But it was immediately taken away by another thing.

There is no research facility in the center of the underground space, about a hundred meters in radius.

Instead, a circle of heavy machine guns, anti-aircraft guns, psychic coils, high-voltage power grids, and fully automatic firepower fortresses were deployed on the periphery.

Judging from the three-layer inner and the outer three-layer, airtight configuration, it is almost more tight than the deployment on the periphery of Dragon City to deal with the impact of the beast tide.

Behind the line of defense, there is also a special force equipped with the most advanced "Black Horned Armor", murderous and ready to fight.

Meng Chao sensed the trembling life magnetic field of these "Black Horned Warriors".

It shows that they are in a state of high tension and even a little fear.

As if surrounded by heavy defenses, in the depths of the underground space, something would come up at any time, killing them armed to the teeth.

Meng Chao's gaze crossed the noire warrior and the heavy defenses, and saw a bottomless gap in the center of the underground space.

It is seven or eighty meters in length, and about twenty to thirty meters at its widest point. It is like an ugly reptile with tentacles, crawling on the ground, and bursting with a faint black gas outside.

Above the gap, there are several landing machinery similar to gantry cranes.

There are also hanging baskets and lifting platforms, which can transport humans or materials to the depths of the gap.

Around the crevice, at a distance of more than a dozen meters, there were four tall wells erected, like four huge nails, deeply nailed into the remains of the ancient civilization.

"That is the entrance to the ancient ruins?"

Meng Chao murmured, "It's... spectacular!"

"Yes, the space we are in is just the surface of the ancient ruins. From this gap, there are several faults. The horizontal crevices and caves contain the ancient mysteries. This vertical downward The gap in is extremely deep. At least our equipment for detecting depth is far from reaching its limit. Perhaps, it does not exist in our space. If it drops tens of thousands of meters all the way, it will travel to another whole new world? "

Wu Haibo said, "The archaic relics are much deserted now than they were 20 or 30 years ago. When the Transcendent Pagoda was just completed, there were ten times more researchers and explorers here, and that's called'spectacular'! "

"is it?"

Meng Chao looked around and saw traces of the relocation of many facilities, and a lot of construction engineering equipment that was simply abandoned after completing their historical missions. There was indeed a bleak smell. He couldn't help asking, "Why?"

"Because those ancient mysteries that are easier to discover and study have all been discovered and studied away."

Wu Haibo shrugged and said, "Many research projects have been transferred to the ground. Longcheng University, the Five-University Alliance, the other three research institutes, and the laboratories of super enterprises are carried out. No one wants to stay here at any time. The monster, or simply he was attracted by the'Summon of the Ancients' and turned into the ghost place of the Ancients.

"Furthermore, the remaining Primordial Mysteries are both difficult to discover and highly dangerous. They are also difficult to replicate and study. They are all fleshless and full of spiked hard bones-the Primordial Mysteries that have been unearthed have not yet been discovered. No one wants to chew these hard bones until they are thoroughly studied."

Meng Chao thought that "the **** of war" Lei Zongchao had said similar things.

He asked Wu Haibo: "So that's it, now our exploration of...'deep diving zone' has stopped?"

"Pause."

Wu Haibo sighed and said with regret, "As a researcher and explorer, there is nothing like a mysterious treasure right in front of you. There is only one door away, but the inability to open the door is even more uncomfortable. After all,' The mountain is there'.

"But starting from the overall situation of Dragon City, I also know that our civilization is not yet qualified to continue exploring.

"The current situation of the Dragon City people is like a group of primitive people who are rumored and drinking blood. Facing the powerful enemies of the wolves, tigers and leopards, they accidentally discovered a dust-covered, highly advanced, nuclear-powered A military base powered by energy.

"In this military base, various weapons, production lines, R&D centers and laboratories are displayed from the outside to the inside.

"There are ordinary pistols, rifles, sniper rifles, and heavy machine guns.

"There are also grenades, landmines, mortars and bazookas.

"There are also tanks, armored vehicles and attack drones.

"Of course, there are also bacterial bombs, gas bombs, incendiary bombs, various chemical weapons and small tactical nuclear weapons.

"Finally, there may be information on all weapons developed, including all basic science theoretical textbooks, and the nuclear reactors that maintain all these operations.

"Do you think, as primitive people, to what extent should we explore this military base?

"If it's just gunpowder-driven individual weapons such as grenades, rifles, and bazookas, even primitive people who drink blood, chaos and obscurity, can master them proficiently after paying a certain price.

"Even if something goes wrong, you can blow yourself to death with grenades, shoot a few companions, and blow up a hundred or so companions into the sky. For the entire primitive tribe, compared with the power of thermal weapons, this The price can and should be borne.

"For tanks and armored vehicles... if modular design and foolish operation methods are adopted, it may not be mastered by primitive people.

"Primitives may not be able to understand the principles of firearms, grenades and main battle tanks, including the mathematics, chemistry, physics... all kinds of mysterious and complicated knowledge contained in them.

"But this does not prevent them from knowing that these will ‘huhu’ spew out flames and lightning, and emit a thunderous roar, helping them to blast the wolves, tigers and leopards to shattered things. They are divine artifacts given to them by heaven or the Creator.

"But, do you think primitive people should work hard to study these things, such as germ bombs, nerve gas bombs, various chemical weapons and even tactical nuclear weapons?

"Regardless of whether the primitive people can figure out how to use these deadly weapons, even if they really figure it out, do you think that letting the blood-drinking primitive people master tens of thousands of explosive nerve gas bombs is a piece of the primitive tribe. Good thing?

"The most important thing is energy.

"Energy is the starting point of all civilizations. No, all life is the starting point. Without energy, there will be nothing. If you master energy, you will master everything.

"But this does not mean that primitive people should rush to explore and study the nuclear reactors that drive the entire military base before the jackals, tigers and leopards have been wiped out, and they do not have even junior high-level physical knowledge.

"For primitive people, as long as they can master individual weapons, at most, tanks, armored vehicles and attack drones are enough to slaughter all wolves, tigers and leopards or domesticate them into poultry and livestock.

"For the Dragon City people, the known Swire technology is enough to help us kill the monster civilization and turn all the surviving monsters into biochemical pets that are obedient to us. For the time being, this is enough. Isn't it?"
