Liu Qingshan just glanced around and discovered to his surprise that his detection power could actually penetrate the rock wall to a depth of several meters.
And he can feel that the true energy at this time has a unique thinking that breaks away from the constraints of the heavenly framework. Compared with his previous green perception of heaven and earth, it is naturally much thicker and more vast.
It should have been inspired by the stone marrow to have a more active evolutionary trend. With it blessing the energy flow in its body, its own strength has undergone tremendous changes.
He just raised his wrist to check the time. He tried his best to suppress the desire to find out. He quickly squatted down, picked up a jade-like stone, took out a short knife and quickly dug out a simple small bottle.
He didn't bring any bottles or jars with him. The only things that could hold those thousand-year-old stalactite marrow were made on site.
In fact, he didn't know whether those metal or ceramic bottles could store stalactites. Didn't they say that only natural jade stones could be used? Fortunately, the stone eggs that can be seen everywhere here should be of jade quality.
Carefully fill a bottle, and then seal it with cut stone pieces. After trying it, the aroma no longer escapes, and then make more stone bottles.
He scooped up about three kilograms of ten thousand year stalactite marrow, and then walked deeper into the cave.
His detection power has been improved at least ten times compared to before he came in, so he can sense the obvious human aura hundreds of meters away. The strong aura also shows that there are many people inside.
The deepest part of the cave is a pure white world. Under the ice surface is a huge spring pool with a diameter of more than tens of meters, crystal clear, exuding boundless cold air. The ice edges on both sides appear cold and mysterious under the cold air.
The weak light is refracted from all directions, and reflected by the bright ice ground, making the cave crystal clear and indescribably exquisite and magical, just like the careful carvings of ice sculptors.
If he wanted to get close to someone, he had to cross this deep pool of water. Holding back the biting cold, Liu Qingshan quietly entered the water, relying on his powers of exploration to identify the direction in the black spring water.
Finally, we came to a place like a crack in the rock wall, but it was covered by a huge fallen rock. We had to cut through the weakest stone layer to enter it.
Moreover, the crack in the rock wall is behind the boulder higher up. You need to climb up a section of the rock wall more than three meters high before you can actually reach the location of the crack.
Liu Qingshan took out the dagger he had just purchased, wrapped it in a ball of true energy and cut into the rock. After a series of operations, he climbed out of the water and climbed up the rock, sideways into the gap that was only half a meter wide.
Entering it, there are several cracks in the rock wall. At the narrowest point, some protruding parts need to be cut off before you can squeeze through slowly sideways. By the time you pass through them one by one, you are already far away from the pool of water.
The last rock wall requires climbing up diagonally, and there is another crack in the rock wall that goes straight down, and entering it is a huge underground space.
Liu Qingshan did not dare to act immediately. Instead, he released his powers of exploration and explored carefully. There were many people walking around inside, and there were even battery cars passing by occasionally. The cars were open-top simple vehicles that obviously did not have the function of transporting goods. .
The stone seam is vertically downward, just behind a hut. Similar huts stretch for hundreds of meters, and there are dozens of them. They are probably dormitories like barracks, because many people coming in and out are very busy. They are dressed casually, unlike when the battery car occasionally passes by, the people on it are all in uniform military uniforms.
Liu Qingshan looked at his watch. It was just past eight o'clock in the morning local time. Many people were still holding cylindrical lunch boxes with layers of layers in their hands. It should be their breakfast time.
After confirming the environment, he quietly slipped down the crack. After taking a few steps and looking back, he found that the crack actually merged with the surrounding brown rock walls. It was really difficult to be discovered without a careful search inch by inch.
Most of these people were black, and there were also Europeans, Americans, and Asians, but only a few were seen in a few minutes.
After observing, he didn't find anything like a camera. He climbed up to the roof quietly. Fortunately, the roofs were all connected buildings. He crawled forward little by little. As long as he didn't make any movement, he wouldn't be noticed by the people below.
The feedback information obtained from the detection force made Liu Qingshan take a deep breath and secretly lamented his own overestimation, obviously he had greatly underestimated the other party.
His location should be the deepest part of this underground base. The people in the patrol cars that occasionally passed by were armed with armor and soldiers, almost armed to the teeth, and well-equipped.
That kind of patrol car is open-top. It is obvious that its purpose is only to patrol, and it does not have any function of carrying objects and people. This completely eliminates confusion in management and random entry and exit.
Moreover, the intensity of this kind of mobile inspection becomes more intensive as you go outwards. There are at least seven checkpoints within a few hundred meters of the detection power, and there are open stakes and secret spies everywhere.
Not only are the seven levels guarded by heavy weapons, but entry and exit also require strict identity verification. The stakes are laid out in order and in a strict state; spies may be hidden among various piles of objects or behind one-way perspective glass.
The patrol car looked like a light armor, and the open part was also manned by heavy machine gunners at all times. An infrared detector was constantly rotating, apparently detecting electronic signals from invisible substances.
The underground space here is divided into three layers, and the protective power of each layer is very cautious. In the lowest space, there is even a flowing waterway like an underground river. In the area covered by Liu Qingshan's detection power, the underground river There is a small submarine on the water, revealing its dark back and towers.
He can currently detect only this part. It is not known how huge it is, but there is nothing strange about the appearance of such a huge underground space.
Due to changes in the earth's crust, the island land sank into the sea. After countless years of erosion and continuous rising and sinking, sea erosion terraces were formed, and many sea erosion landforms such as sea cliffs and sea caves developed.
Due to the hard rock formation and long-term erosion, it is not uncommon for islands that sink beneath the sea to become underwater hills and mountains hidden within.
What is rare is how to pinpoint a hidden location that is far more difficult to find than a deserted island still exposed above the water. Therefore, even if you know that such a hidden base exists, it is absolutely difficult to find traces of them that have protective measures, unless you can like In this way, he found a secret passage.
The real entrance and exit of this secret base hidden under the vast sea may be hidden under the surface of the sea. The existence of the submarine illustrates this problem.
So at this time, Liu Qingshan was very glad that his judgment was correct and he did not choose to use the outside of the desert island as a breakthrough point. Otherwise, even if he was not discovered by the enemy, he would have wasted a long period of time.
He did not expect that the opponent's daily protection would be so strict and meticulous, and that he had achieved the strict military discipline that a regular army should have. His previous attitude towards the enemy had a major deviation, otherwise he might be killed if he was not careful.
But he also discovered that the Shadow Organization also made a major mistake, that is, they ignored the possible hidden tunnel loopholes from behind the base, which is the deepest part of the underground space.
In fact, this error in judgment is understandable, because the cracks in the rock wall that he sneaked along were quite hidden. Only the cracks in the rock wall at the bottom of the first deep well-like vertical downward passage were hidden in the layers of layers. Behind the rock wall.
Only with his ability to detect intangible substances can he bypass the barriers of rock walls for deeper exploration, and any high-tech exploration equipment cannot achieve the effect of drilling into cracks.
Furthermore, even if you pass through the cracks in the rock wall, not everyone can bear the extreme cold of the underground spring pool. If you wear diving equipment and go deep into it, the only result will be to be frozen into a thick layer of ice. pack.
Moreover, the crack at the bottom of the water was blocked by a boulder weighing a thousand kilograms. He could only rely on the guidance of his true energy to find the gap under the boulder in the dark deep water environment.
The bottom of the boulder is an irregular long and narrow protruding part, which stands just in front of the gap and fits closely with the surrounding rock walls. Unless the narrow and long one meter thick is cut off on site, it is impossible to find the gap.
Therefore, he concluded that Shadow did not know that there were cracks in the rock wall that could lead to the deepest part of the base, and thus completely ignored the defense in this regard.
They didn't even install camera surveillance here, probably because it is a dormitory area of a barracks, and the protective measures outside are enough to isolate any enemies who want to sneak in.
Liu Qingshan climbed to the roof not only because it was the safest way forward, but also because his goal was the armory, which was almost integrated with this row of dormitories.
The warehouse was built at the southernmost end of the dormitory, and the top was naturally much higher than this row of roofs. It was also heavily guarded outside, but just like the previous major mistake, they still ignored the possibility of coming from the deepest direction of the underground cave. protection.
He only needs to climb to the higher roof of the armory, then slide down the narrow gap between the roof and the rock wall, and then he can break a hole in the back and enter the armory.
In fact, before entering, Liu Qingshan had already realized that he would have to go back along the original route to withdraw, and he would have to passively adopt the second plan.
Because his previous plan was to find an opportunity to dress up as an enemy, sneak out of the underground base, and then steal a speedboat or a diving suit to escape from the entrance.
Now that I have seen their tight security, it is obviously impossible to achieve it, so I can only think about it differently.
This second plan required a larger amount of arms, and the appearance of that armory obviously made him overjoyed.
Ten minutes later, he appeared quietly at the back wall of the armory. The dagger wrapped in zhenqi was cutting stone like mud. The scene in the warehouse made him smile.
The dark space is filled with mountains of large and small wooden boxes, which are divided into several areas. It's like entering a weapons supermarket, and the shelves used for partitions are full of things, blocking the camera at the door. .
The weapons in the armory are very complete. Basically, there are all the standard weapons for individual soldiers, including various rifles, sniper rifles, submachine guns, etc., rocket launchers, mortars, and even individual anti-aircraft missiles and external weapons. It is also very comprehensive, with individual soldier equipment even filling one corner.
