"My backpack, hey hey, my lamp"
"This is a camera, not a weapon. If you tap it, it's a monitor. Don't break it."
Yuan Quan was pointed at gunpoint by two soldiers covered in fish-scale tactical armor, and yelled at another bald man who was squatting in front of her backpack and playing with the camera.
The bald man in a gray short robe casually threw the camera away, stood up and glanced at the pipeline transporter being unloaded not far away, and said in a low voice: "Lock her up first." Then he looked at the drone hovering in the air. Said, "Seal this place and no one is allowed to enter or leave, including bionic people."
The six compound eyes of the drone expanded and contracted for a moment, then disintegrated into a plume of metal smoke and dust, and suddenly disappeared.
On the other side, behind the huge base of a working robotic arm.
With the help of "subtitles" to confirm that Yuan Quan would not be "executed on the spot," Li Liang withdrew his gaze and said softly: "Let's go."
Next to him, a fat man with a beard grinned: "Okay."
The two walked through the platform lined with robotic arms, climbed down from the mouth of a well marked "Inspection", stepped on the metal ladder all the way down to the well, and walked along the dark passage for more than ten minutes, arriving at a narrow entrance of the cave.
The hole is cut into the wall of the pipe and is covered with a web of red light.
This scene seems familiar.
Through the hair-thin light, Li Liang saw the darkness inside, and instantly remembered the southern death row. Yuan Zhen used similar equipment to block the escape hole behind the cell and deceived the robot's detection.
The fat man got in first, his movements were flexible and he looked well-trained.
Li Liang pulled off the virtual mapper attached to his wrist and followed closely.
Just now, the pipeline transporter stopped at the platform. After the first round of machine scanning, he successfully passed the inspection. Then he climbed out of the cargo hold and met the fat man who came to meet him.
The fat man calls himself Jin Ji and is an active-duty fourth-level sergeant major of the Galaxy's resident emergency response force. He is loyal to the Interstellar Expeditionary Corps headquarters on the surface, but has actually been trained by the Marginal Business Department for many years.
Andre claimed that he underestimated the greed of the heroic spirits and put himself in the position of the victim, but Li Liang knew that the dying old fox had never trusted the heroic spirits. There must be many fence-sitters like Jin Ji. However, the old fox finally An Qiao, a trusted confidant who holds the secret access point, saw his ambitions swelled in the face of a better object of loyalty when he saw him. Even Andre had a premonition that there was nothing he could do about it.
This was one of the reasons why he believed in Jin Ji at the moment. Fatty was the contact person Anqiao personally contacted.
However, he was not curious about Jin Ji, who was taciturn and had no intention of chatting.
The two of them just walked on in silence.
Li Liang was always alert to his surroundings, ready to summon a portal to escape at any time.
They passed through many spaces of unknown purpose, some were filled with tangled cables, some were filled with boiling steam, some were as cold as the arctic, and there was even a kitchen in the back of a restaurant.
Li Liang remembered that the appearance of the Galaxy looked like a horizontal silver dumbbell, with rhombus-shaped multi-layer structures on both sides and an irregular horizontal column in the middle. However, inside it, he could not tell which part he was traveling through. After all, this space carrier is too big.
It feels like the Defiant submarine has been enlarged countless times. Each floor has a different area, shape, and function. Moreover, after passing several floors, the design style of the space will change, showing that this spaceship has a long history. , has gone through changes in human aesthetics.
The fat man seemed to have deliberately chosen a route to avoid the crowds. Li Liang saw almost no living people. There was one person in the back kitchen of the restaurant, snoring loudly, and more than a dozen robots were busy cooking.
In addition, he did not see any androids along the way, which showed that Zero Four was right, Legion did not trust androids.
Li Liang's nerves were constantly tense as he was hurrying along and always alert to any unusual movements in Ling's field of vision.
It wasn't until he stepped into an equipment cabin, put on his tactical outer armor, and followed Jin Ji into an "elevator" that he relaxed a little.
The "elevator" covers an area of two hundred square meters, with transparent walls and rows of seats fixed on the ground. It can accommodate hundreds of people. Only a dozen people are seated at the moment.
Jin Ji, who was still wearing a tactical outer armor and still had a big belly, obviously had a lot of friends. He knew everyone well and said hello to everyone.
They spoke the language of the upper city and followed a strange conversational style, leaning close to each other and whispering. Only when they occasionally raised their voices would they be caught by the "subtitles" function of Li Liang's retina projector, and subtitles would pop up.
From the few words of different people, Li Liang quickly understood the situation.
These more than ten people were all fourth-level sergeants, and they went to the headquarters to report on their duties as usual. Jin Ji was not supposed to go today, but he used the pretext of being summoned by a certain officer to fend off other people's inquiries.
Li Liang also noticed that after hearing the officer's name, other people cast meaningful glances at him, containing a joke that could only be understood but could not be expressed in words.
It seems that that person is a lover of chrysanthemums.
The tactical outer helmet covered Li Liang's face, otherwise everyone would see the smile on his lips. He was originally thinking about how to get the positions of K and Dr. Xisen, but now he can kill two birds with one stone.
The "elevator" starts going down.
The sergeants stopped talking to each other and sat down separately.
soon.
The "elevator" enters space and, like a pipeline transporter, slides along a beam tube composed of four beams and slender lights. However, this "capillary" is very close to an extremely thick "blood vessel". Li Liang clearly understands He saw a white "core" in the beam tube of unknown diameter and geometry. When he got closer, he finally saw clearly that it was flowing flames or some kind of energy, turbulent and turbulent, but bound by light blue light. .
Further away, among dozens of "capillaries" of varying thicknesses, "elevators" carrying people or cargo are busy going up and down.
Looking up, the Galaxy above looks like a "giant wall" with endless sight on both sides. The "wall" is uneven and covered with complex mechanical structures. There is light shining in the gaps. Some areas are transparent and can be vaguely seen. Go to the empty cabin inside.
Lower your head, there is the moon under your feet.
Due to tidal locking, one side of the moon almost always faces the earth. That side has been transformed into the upper city of the moon, shrouded in a huge network structure, and the back side, known as the dark side of the moon, is not completely dark at the moment, but instead appears A misty white.
Looking down at the dark side of the moon, the dense craters are horrifying, and you can still vaguely see ravines, canyons and cliffs, especially a few huge dark spots, like scars immersed in the texture.
All the blue "vessels" and "capillaries" lead to the same location, a giant crater that can be seen at a glance even from space.
Li Liang vaguely remembered that the crater had been discovered and named Aitken Basin more than a thousand years ago.
Thick "blood vessels" pierce the surface of the Aitken Basin, looking like the Galaxy is continuously drawing energy from the moon's body.
There are two irregular peaks, one large and one small, standing close together in the center of the basin. Between the mountains, there is a hazy light, and all the "capillaries" extend into that light.
The headquarters of Zhuos Gate Valve is right there.
