There is no subway in the Sky City.
This is almost unimaginable for this flying city that competes with first-tier cities in major countries. The city's residents have ridiculed the official inaction countless times. The tax money has been used by the officials to maintain health and transform pigeons! This is a common joke among students.
Gongsun Ce himself said this. But now, when the subject came up in serious discussion, he could never get over it with the students' jokes.
The superpower said slowly: "There are sewers and underground cables in the Sky City..."
"How deep is that? Ordinary pipes are 1 to 2 meters at most. Even if the city uses a common trench structure, it is only a few meters underground at most. To build a subway, it is necessary to dig to a depth of more than 20 meters. , it’s not that the managers of the Sky City don’t want to, but they can’t!” Contrary to the hesitation of the superpowers, Alice Adar spoke faster and faster, “What can only exist in the Sky City? The answer starts from the beginning Right before your eyes is the city itself. It is a city floating in the sky - the corpse of the Dragon of the Sky!"
Start digging from the road in the Sky City, and go all the way down to a depth of tens of meters. Where will you end up?
"We are standing on the wings of a giant dragon. The underground depth of Dingyi District and Fierce Wing District is probably not enough to build a subway tunnel, and if we get to the central area..."
"Then it will definitely break through the skin of the Sky Dragon and dig into his body!" Alice pointed at the other party excitedly, "Takizawa Yoshihisa launched an investigation in the sewer in order to grasp the planning of the city's underground pipelines and find out Seeing the unreasonableness in its design, Tyros used his abilities to find the entrance to the corresponding area on the ground - this is the answer, Gongsun Ce! The place where the dragon madmen are going is the underground space of the city, the sky. Inside the body of the dragon. And judging from the situation in which the leader separated from them, they have found the entrance into the belly of the Dragon of the Sky!"
How could he not have thought of this? This is the most reasonable answer. The dragon worshipers who have gone through so much trouble to get here are going deep into the underground of the city and entering the body of the creature they regard as a god. It is impossible that the great powers that participated in the construction of the Sky City did not consider this aspect. Long before city planning, when investigating the Dragon of the Sky itself, they must have understood the internal structure of its body. Only on this basis could they There are plans to build the city.
If the dragon is also regarded as a kind of living thing, then what is in its abdominal cavity?
The superpower tried to deduce their movement trajectory: "Tyrros set out from the Thorn Area to the Fixed Wing Area. I don't think this lunatic would know about the popular local birds - you don't even know this stuff - then he is very likely to Eighty-nine we took the land route. The land route...Miss Alice, the transmitter on Tyros lost the signal at that time."
"I thought he hid in an area where it's difficult to get a signal... What do you mean!"
Gongsun Ce pointed at the feet of the two of them: "Of course the signal will be lost, because Tyros K sneaked into the underground through some channel, and he was under our feet at that time! He discovered the way to sneak into the underground. At that time, The purpose of escaping is to pass this information to their leader. I think it was during this process that the transmitter you set was discovered by them, so Tyros had enough energy to set up a trap to lure us to the fixed wing area. On the contrary, this takes us far away from the direction we should investigate in the first place!”
After picking up the details that he had previously ignored, the young man felt that his thinking was particularly active.
He pointed at the map on the screen, starting from the thorn area on the lower body, crossing a quarter of the dragon's body, turning at the junction of the dragon's wings and the body, and pointing to the fixed wing area where they were now. "Considering the underground as the target, everything makes sense. In the area where Tyros operates, there must be a passage to the underground. Miss Alice, now is the time for you to take action..."
Alice entered a series of numbers very quickly: "The officials of Sky City must know the inside story about the underground!"
The hunter's phone number must have been connected. Gongsun Ce heard a series of extremely fast and elegant common language coming from behind him. Her pronunciation is more standard than that of ordinary citizens in the kingdom's capital, and there are no slang or common names in her speech.
Three years ago, he would have been able to understand each other's words quickly, but after not being in another language environment for a long time, he could only roughly distinguish the main idea: the hunter was requesting information about the underground of Sky City from the people of the Kingdom.
Judging from her increasingly excited expression, this process could not be called smooth.
"You call this maximum help?! Your stubbornness will put the cross badge on your chest to shame!"
This should be a very severe accusation in the kingdom. The person on the other end of the phone didn't seem to reply immediately, as if he was choked by these words. Then Alice's face became even more ugly. It wasn't until the man said something else that her expression finally softened a little, and she hung up the phone after a few brief conversations.
"It doesn't look good."
The blue-haired hunter gritted his teeth: "Insufficient authority, need to ask superiors for instructions, and inform the results after discussion and decision... At this time, noble gentlemen can still say such things!"
Gongsun Ce hid his face and sighed: "I'm beginning to believe in the authenticity of the Kingdom's sitcom."
"Bureaucrats all look like this, no matter which country they choose." Alice said anxiously, "In the end, they just told me that if we accidentally entered certain areas due to force majeure, the kingdom would trust the frontline personnel. We have made independent judgments and in order to avoid unforeseen accidents that may be caused by the intervention of third-party personnel, we will not send out rescues for the time being."
The bespectacled young man waved his hands repeatedly.
"translate."
"It means we can find a way to go down by ourselves and just pretend not to see it and don't stop it. That's all they can do." The hunter stretched out her hand to shake her poor follower, "Go and ask the intelligence dealer if he has found anything, hurry up!"
I can understand your anxiety.
But at least don't treat a harmless superpower like this. His glasses will almost fall off due to you.
"Don't worry, don't worry."
As if he finally realized his gaffe, the blue-haired hunter quickly let go of his hand.
"Excuse me."
The superpower's eyes were blank: "It's okay, it's better than dragging me by the collar and walking like flying. I'm used to being treated by older women from the kingdom."
This is not a lie.
"Really..." Alice said hesitantly, "Your desperate tone makes me not know whether to joke or show sympathy."
Please also show sympathy.
The nature of the action will not change depending on the appearance and identity of the perpetrator. Assuming that a punch that can break mountains and crack rocks is struck from the front, no matter whether the person throwing the punch is an ugly uncle or a beautiful girl with a slim figure, the person who is hit will The pain is the same. The only thing that will change is the subjective view. Because she is a beautiful girl, it is okay. Because she is an acquaintance, it is okay. There are also a very few people who will say that because they like pain, it is okay. People with superpowers believe that they do not belong to any of the above categories. Whether they are hunters with subtle temperaments or arbitrary knights, even if they have a glorious appearance, they will not have positive emotions when they are treated roughly.
Only then, at this moment, will you feel the value of friendship. The perverts in suits and the intelligence dealers would not do such rough things to him. Those two would only take the right action at the right time.
Just like now.
Gongsun Ce took out his mobile phone from his pocket. The name of the intelligence dealer was displayed on the screen. Miss Alice laughed in surprise.
"Hello, I'm Gongsun Ce."
There was a crunching sound on the other end of the phone, and Mo Yuankai probably opened another bag of potato chips.
"How's it going, Ace?"
"After defeating Takizawa Yoshihisa, they regarded the dragon as a god and concluded that the last leader went underground. Miss Alice did not have enough authority to get the information, so the concessions obtained allowed us to find a way on our own."
"Okay, I got it. The nearest Lanyu Station is ten minutes away from you. Just walk straight there and then go back to Baiyu Station in Thorn District."
The superpower sent the coordinates to the hunter, and Alice disappeared with him.
From the entrance of the factory to the top of the high-rise building and then to the center of the highway, the two figures disappeared and reappeared like ghosts, leaving a few onlookers in awe and several flowers that faded away in the night.
Radio communication could not be maintained under this situation. The intelligence dealer blocked the phone and sent a temporarily recorded voice: "The last dragon worshiper is well hidden. He was at 6:40 at night." He walked into the main entrance of the Hensler Complex in the central area and never came out again. I concluded that he set out from that building to go underground."
Upon hearing this, Alice speeded up the transmission: "It was already two hours ago?! Why would such an action-"
"Miss Adar must be asking me why I didn't find it. Because all the surveillance videos where this person has appeared have been processed. Either he has great hands and eyes and bribed the upper-level personnel of the Sky City, or he used his ability to achieve this. Such an effect." The intelligence dealer's voice was as calm as when we met before. "Now let me answer your second question. You have to take the official channel. It will definitely be too late to chase you now, so I asked you to take a shortcut to the Thorn Area."
The Thorn Area is located behind the central area, the lower body of the dragon, and the area where Gongsun Ce lives.
It is named after dozens of giant towers drilled out of the ground.
The leader of the dragon worshipers entered the underground from the central area located on the upper body. Logically speaking, they should also go to the central area, but the information dealer gave this advice...
"I have lived in the Thorn District for several years, and this is the first time I know that there is a passage to the underground near my home."
His old friend smiled and replied: "Ace, you are quite crazy. Have you ever thought about what those giant white towers called thorns near your home are?"
