Following the instructions given by the "mission", Yu had been walking along the sewer lined with concrete and stone pillars for almost seven or eight minutes. Only then did Colin and others see a downward corner with "↑" written next to it using special anti-corrosion material. -2" words.
It was still the three cylindrical robots with strong martial arts who took the lead, and a few people followed behind and turned into the negative second floor.
After coming down, Colin found that the second floor looked much more dilapidated than the first floor. Other than that, there were not many other differences.
But at this moment, not long after they came in, an alarm sounded from the headphones they wore in their protective suits.
"Anomaly found! Abnormality found! Abnormality found!"
On the cylindrical robot, several infrared rays pointed somewhere ahead.
Colin and others looked over and saw piles of white bones of small animals on the ground, with black and short fur attached to these bones.
They all recognized what kind of creature it was without the help of robots.
"mouse?"
Colin was surprised. Looking at the piles of skeletons and corpses, there must be thousands or tens of thousands of rats in each pile. In some areas, the piles of rat skeletons were more than three meters high and looked like small hills.
"Here, how should we deal with this?" A colleague took a breath and said with some fear: "What if they come back alive?"
"We can't handle it at the moment." Qin Chuan was also a little worried.
It wouldn't matter if there were hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands of them, but if tens, millions or even more rat bones suddenly appeared, it would be a bit scary.
The main thing is that there are too many for them to handle.
And at the same time, they also wondered what could kill so many rats and pile them here.
"Wait for the machine analysis report." Qin Chuan reassured everyone.
At this time, a cylindrical robot picked up a mouse skeleton and put it into its body. After a minute, it issued a report result:
"Preliminary estimates suggest that the creature died approximately thirty to fifty years ago. The cause of death is unknown. There are no obvious injuries. Except for the skeleton and fur, no internal organs, flesh and blood or other tissue remains are found. It is suspected that it was stripped off by unknown means.
"Within a radius of 100 meters from the scene, no biological survival breath was detected, and no 'abnormal index' fluctuations were found.
"Return road caution points have not been affected.
".
"If you want to continue moving forward, it is recommended to install a 'reality stabilization device' here to prevent accidents."
Hearing the voice of the robot ringing in his ears, Qin Chuan, Colin and others thought about it together and decided to move forward.
Soon, Colin saw several silver metal pillars more than one meter high and as thick as an arm being taken out and inserted into the ground. In the next few seconds, they made a beeping sound and emitted green light spots, breathing and flashing. It moves, indicating that it is operating normally.
"This is the 'reality stabilization device'. After checking it out, I felt that the violent temperament of 'lycanthropy' in my body was suddenly cut to silence, and other props seemed to have been cut down as well, and they continued to be suppressed."
Colin muttered under his breath.
After the team made arrangements, a thin employee in the team took out a piece of yellowed paper from his pocket, pinched the paper and stared at it.
As he watched, black fonts appeared on it.
[You tried to enter the third underground floor. Although you saw more rat bones along the way, you were not in danger. However, when you investigated below, you made some unexpected discoveries, some of which shocked you. Shocking discovery]
[After staying for a while, the guys couldn’t wait to return, wanting to inform the outside world of these contents. 】
【.】
[You finally succeeded in sending the news back. 】
Seeing these contents, he was obviously relieved, and then passed the letter to Qin Chuan and other colleagues.
Colin, who was sitting in a wheelchair, also saw the content displayed above.
"'Book of Numerology·Fragment'? Why is the official fragment used like this? Shouldn't it be directly in the mind? Also, why do you feel that the official 'Book of Numerology·Fragment' has a more serious phenomenon of riddles and nonsense? ah?"
Colin stared at the first line, and couldn't help but complain in his heart that this thing only talked about shocking discoveries, but it didn't say what kind of shocking discoveries.
Without waiting for more thought, Qin Chuan on the side asked everyone to be careful before taking action.
Just like what "The Book of Numerology·Fragment" said, they saw more rat corpses along the way. They were like continuous hills, filling the sewer space on the second floor of the basement.
The symbol of death represented by the white bones made Colin and others feel heavy and breathless even if they were not in actual danger.
A few minutes later, Colin and others saw the downward entrance to the negative third floor.
At this moment, apart from a lot more rat bones along the way, there are no other abnormalities here.
They didn't detect anything wrong, and Colin didn't find anything wrong either. In addition, there was the "guarantee" of "The Book of Numerology: Fragments", and they then thought that this might be a task specially arranged by Miss Rabbit, and there should be no mistakes. Ke Lin did not make any suggestions to return.
Then, glancing at the dense mountain of rat carcasses behind them, they and others walked into the third floor.
As soon as they entered here, before exploring inside, everyone discovered a corpse at the corner - a human corpse!
This corpse was covered in dust, sitting with its back against a concrete wall. It was unknown how long it had been dead, but it had already turned into a mummy. What was more special was that its legs were not human bodies, but two mechanical prostheses. .
At this time, Colin's eyes narrowed slightly and he looked steadily at the body. He noticed that a half-open piece of parchment was thrown away there.
"Is it a company employee? Who died here?"
Colin was surprised in his heart, and Qin Chuan noticed something strange about Colin, looked over, and frowned at the same time.
After simply confirming that there were no other problems around, a robot stepped forward, picked up the parchment with its robotic arm, spread it out to take a photo, and transferred the photo to a screen flash in Qin Chuan's hand similar to a mobile phone.
This is usually done because there are unknown dangers above.
But for some reason, in this sewer space, signals such as pictures cannot be transmitted, and by the time the pictures are transmitted, they are already a blur.
Moreover, the robot was disturbed and unable to read the above content.
In desperation, an armed officer could only check first. After a few minutes, no problem was found with him, and then one of the five extraordinary personnel accompanying him was allowed to observe.
However, after reading the above content, he suddenly looked at Colin with a strange and cautious expression.
"Qin Chuan, come here and take a look."
"What's wrong?"
"You'll find out when you come over and take a look."
After a while, Colin saw the two people standing side by side. Their eyes looked at him with the same expression, strangely cautious and with a hint of hostility.
Could it be that I was found out about opening a trumpet account? Colin didn't know why, but it didn't feel right.
Because no matter what, he couldn't imagine that another employee who had been dead for who knows how long could leave a piece of parchment with any information that would allow him to be seen through.
"How about you let me see it too?"
Colin took the initiative to speak, curious about what the content above was.
After some discussion, several people finally agreed to his request and asked the robot to bring the parchment over, and secretly pointed the gun at him to prevent some kind of accident from happening.
Colin was a little unhappy, but he didn't say anything. When the robot came over holding the parchment, his eyes shifted upward.
At this time, when he saw the first line of the dark brown writing on it clearly, he was stunned.
"I'm Colin, and by the time you see this piece of paper, I should be dead."
