Seeing that Tu Hengyu was confident, Ma Zhao stopped worrying and looked up at the timer on the mask.
The countdown has begun, and there is not much time left for them.
"Check personal equipment one last time!"
After a while, reports came from the headphones.
"One group inspection completed!"
"The second team's inspection is complete!"
"Three groups of inspections completed!"
"Okay, let's start checking the watches. It's now 12:33:57!"
After counting the interest, there is another round of counting.
"Everyone has it!"
"Get ready to hit the water!"
After saying that, Ma Zhao wore an exoskeleton mecha and came to the edge of the seawall. Seeing this, others followed suit.
"Jump!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Zhao took the lead, squatted down, and then rushed straight up.
thump!
thump!
Soon, several splashes of water exploded on the sea surface. Among them, nine were larger and one was smaller.
The smaller one is Tu Hengyu, and the remaining ones are team members and robots.
After falling into the water, Tu Hengyu sank the slowest. After all, he was the only one who was not equipped with a life-support system.
The life-support system worn by Ma Zhao and others weighed a full two hundred kilograms. With such a heavy weight, coupled with their weight, they sank to the bottom of the sea as soon as they entered the water.
In less than two minutes, Ma Zhao and others landed.
Looking at the tall buildings completely submerged in the sea, Ma Zhao's eyes showed a rare sadness.
The price of wandering the earth is too high.
From now on, most people will live underground. Even if their cultivation reaches the Qi refining stage, they will not be able to stay on the ground for too long.
And, with the launch of the plan, humans will no longer be able to see the blue sky and white clouds.
After a while, Ma Zhao recovered his thoughts, looked around, and then asked.
"Tu Hengyu, how much longer do you want?"
"Teacher, I'm already here."
As soon as the sound reached Ma Zhao's ears, Tu Hengyu fell into the crowd with a very chic attitude.
He was wearing a silver combat uniform and standing on the seabed with a very casual attitude. With his expression, people who didn't know would have thought he was participating in some social activity.
Indeed, the water depth is only two hundred meters, and for a foundation-building monk like Tu Hengyu, the water pressure is not even enough to scratch an itch.
"Set off!"
Seeing the last person returning to the team, Ma Zhao waved his hand and ordered.
Following the order, the eight-person team walked majestically towards the tall building in front of them.
There is not much time left for them.
Although the security level of the root server room is very high, according to the standards, it can operate without hindrance even if it is under the sea.
But no matter how good the equipment is, it still needs someone to maintain it.
The last maintenance work was a year ago, and no one knows if any accidents occurred during this year.
…
…
At the same time, Liu Peiqiang also came to his own defense area-Fangshan Underground City.
"Hello, Chief!"
As soon as he arrived, the communications personnel assigned by the base immediately came to greet him.
Liu Peiqiang nodded slightly without putting on any airs.
Afterwards, he quickly entered working mode and asked directly.
"How is the current situation in Fangshan?"
"Has the personnel migration been completed?"
"Are the ammunition reserves sufficient?"
"Are all combatants in place?"
The correspondent saluted: "Reporting to the chief, the designed population capacity of Fangshan Underground City is 5.8 million. At 11 o'clock in the morning, all residents belonging to Fangshan Underground City will be relocated!"
"Right now, our department is searching the surrounding area to check whether any personnel are missing. According to the search team's report, as of 12:33, the search team has brought back a total of 138 non-staff personnel."
"In addition, Fangshan Dungeon has entered the first level of combat preparation!"
"Plenty of ammunition!"
"All personnel, ready!"
"good!"
Liu Peiqiang nodded and strode towards the direction of the planetary engine.
"Now, come with me to the planetary engine, I want to recheck it!"
"yes!"
Re-inspection is a necessary procedure, and Liu Peiqiang, as the temporary commander of the Fangshan Army, has all authority within the base.
This includes a series of permissions such as accessing the background of all combat team members and checking all weapon logs and inventories.
Soon, Liu Peiqiang came to the entrance of the control room of the planetary engine. Looking at the long corridor in front of him, for some reason, he suddenly felt a sense of crisis in his heart.
dangerous?
As soon as this thought arose, the correspondent following him immediately tore through his disguise.
boom!
The next second, Liu Peiqiang felt a huge push coming from behind him, and he flew up uncontrollably.
Um?
Um?
The first 'um' was Liu Peiqiang's question, what's going on?
Although the pushing force was strong, he showed no signs of injury at all, and upon closer inspection, he also discovered that at some point, a layer of 'protective clothing' was vaguely covered around his torso.
What's this?
The last person who expressed surprise was the correspondent. To be precise, his true identity was one of the leaders of the resistance.
In today's attack, their purpose was to capture Liu Peiqiang alive.
The blow just now was a powerful blow that he had accumulated for half a year. In terms of power, it was comparable to a monk in the late stage of foundation building.
But the sneak attack was not successful.
Not only was he unsuccessful, he himself was shaken to pieces by the force of the counterattack.
'Is that the talisman? '
In mid-air, Liu Peiqiang finally discovered the source of the 'protective clothing'.
Is this stuff real?
Liu Peiqiang's eyes were as wide as bells, with a look of disbelief on his face.
Didn’t my wife check that this thing is just an ordinary jade charm?
That glowing look, can it be ordinary? ?
wrong!
In an instant, Liu Peiqiang suppressed these thoughts in his heart. There was no need to think about the jade talisman or the old man for the time being.
The immediate priority is to catch the attacker.
In a blink of an eye, the attacker who was originally alive and kicking was now in a dying state.
The correspondent lay dying on the ground, looking at Liu Peiqiang in disbelief as he flew closer.
Just now, what was that?
At first, it was just a slight counter-shock force. Although he was shaken unclearly, he was still a foundation-building monk after all, so such a small counter-shock force could not hurt him.
But in just a few breaths, the counterattack force that had subsided suddenly emerged again, and became more violent.
If the initial counter-shock was just a trickle, then what followed was flash floods, storms, and tsunamis!
After a long while, the correspondent used all his strength and managed to speak.
"Ahem, what is that?"
He is unwilling to give in!
Is this the latest secret weapon developed by the government?
Liu Peiqiang obviously didn't mean to answer him. Before he even landed, he released a spiritual lock and tied the attacker tightly.
"Who are you?"
