"This is..." Yi Xiao put the drawing in front of his eyes and studied it carefully. "Architectural drawings of the factory?"

Yes, this is exactly the architectural drawing of this factory. Everything from the large planar structure to the smallest vents is clearly marked on the drawing.

Yi Xiao didn't know much about this aspect, but according to the markings on the drawings, it was not difficult to figure out the general structure of the factory. "According to what is recorded on this drawing, this factory also has a basement?"

They had not noticed that there was a basement before, because the entrance to this basement was outside the factory, in the opposite direction from where Yi Xiao and others came in, allowing transportation vehicles to pass freely.

Inside the factory, there is only one hidden entrance, but generally no one uses this passage.

Yi Xiao put the drawings and the previous pile of materials into the [backpack space], left the main control room, and returned to the first floor again.

At this time, Mo Hua was checking the dial next to an instrument. When he heard the sound of Yi Xiao coming down, he turned around and asked, "How is it? Did you find it?"

Yi Xiao took out the device parameters and placed them in Mo Hua's hand. "I found this, let's see if it helps."

Mo Hua took the materials, checked them, and nodded. "Having this saves a lot of time."

"Then you should do some research first. I just found the architectural drawings of this factory. It shows that there is a basement here. I'll go see if there is anything useful."

"Okay." Mo Hua sat on the floor and began to study the materials in his hands.

According to the markings on the drawing, Yi Xiao found the entrance to the basement behind an instrument.

This is an iron gate installed on the ground. Judging from the size of the gate, this passage is not large and can only allow one person to pass.

Yi Xiao grabbed the iron ring on the gate and tried hard, but he couldn't pull it!

"Is this place also locked?" Yi Xiao looked at the gate and frowned slightly.

There is no lock on the outside of the gate, which means it is locked from below!

"Could it be? Someone is hiding inside?"

Yi Xiao grasped the iron ring again, and suddenly exerted force with his right hand. With the sound of steel breaking, the gate was violently opened!

Under the gate, there is a vertical passage downwards. On one side of the wall, a ladder extends all the way down.

Yi Xiao jumped into the passage without using the ladder on the side, letting his body fall freely.

The passage was not long, and soon, Yi Xiao felt his feet touch the ground. He bent his knees slightly to relieve the force of his falling body, and glanced around.

The basement was dark, with only a few rays of light coming through the cracks in the door, allowing Yi Xiao to barely distinguish what was going on here.

"This is..." Looking at the scenery in front of him, Yi Xiao looked a little surprised.

Eight figures huddled in the corner, and several pairs of eyes looked at Yi Xiao nervously, as if they were wary of Yi Xiao's sudden arrival.

Behind them were piles of boxes and sacks, and on the other side was the stench of excrement.

Yi Xiao raised his hand and fanned in front of his nose, trying to get rid of the pungent smell, with a trace of disgust in his eyes.

"Are you... workers here?" Yi Xiao looked at the work clothes on several people and asked.

Someone brought me a pillow when I was really dozing off. I thought there was no one alive here just now, but I turned around and found these workers.

Hearing Yi Xiao speak, a hint of surprise appeared on the faces of these workers.

When the apocalypse broke out, several workers outside the factory suddenly turned into zombies and attacked other workers. Moreover, because of the contagiousness of the zombie virus, more workers began to mutate.

Seeing that the spread of the zombie virus has become uncontrollable, the workers can only retreat to the factory and lock the door.

But before they were lucky enough to escape, several workers who concealed their injuries began to mutate. At this time, the door was locked, and they had become turtles in the jar.

Later, an older worker remembered the emergency exit in the basement, fled into the basement with seven other people, and locked the gate, thus escaping.

However, new problems have arisen. The gate can no longer be moved. The basement door is electric and there is no power supply. They are trapped here.

Fortunately, there are a lot of supplies stored in the basement, including some ingredients and fresh water, which are used to supply the workers' daily meals.

Relying on these ingredients, the eight of them survived. He has been hiding in the basement, waiting for rescue.

A month of darkness brought his spirit to the verge of collapse several times!

Just now, Yi Xiao fought with the giant zombies, and the sound spread into the basement, giving them a glimmer of hope again in their hearts that were close to despair.

However, they did not dare to leave here. They hoped that the sound just now meant that someone was coming to save them, but they were also afraid that after they got out of here, those terrifying zombies would still be waiting for them!

Yi Xiao jumped in, which really frightened them. After Yi Xiao opened his mouth, they confirmed that the young man in front of them was a normal person like them.

An older worker told Yi Xiao everything about their experience. He was the man who led several people to hide in the basement, and his name was Wang Zhuang.

After listening to the stories of several people, Yi Xiao couldn't help but laugh. He didn't expect these people to survive in this way.

If he hadn't needed to use the equipment here, no one might have ever discovered them, and their fate would have been death!

"How's it going up there?" Wang Zhuang asked tentatively.

"How should I put it? This world is no longer the world in your memory. There are dangers everywhere now. The end of the world has come." Yi Xiao said with a smile.

These people are trapped here and have no idea about the outside world. Their understanding of the end of the world only stops at the first few zombies.

Wang Zhuang was slightly excited after hearing Yi Xiao's words. "How could this happen? Didn't anyone stop those things? Where is Zhengfu? And..."

Yi Xiao raised his hand and interrupted Wang Zheng's words, saying: "Don't have any doubt, lying to you means nothing to me. I only ask you one thing, since you are workers here, you should be able to use the equipment above. ?”

While talking, Yi Xiao used [Thunder Clothes]. The silver thunder snake suddenly appeared and jumped up and down around Yi Xiao's body.

The electric light illuminated the basement.

Seeing the thunder and lightning on Yi Xiao's body, several people were shocked. This ability to release thunder and lightning has completely subverted their understanding!

Seeing Yi Xiao bathing in thunder and lightning, the strange scene in front of them made these workers slowly begin to believe what Yi Xiao said.

The workers looked at each other, and no one spoke for a while.

The basement fell into a brief silence, except for the thunder and lightning on Yi Xiao's body that kept beating and making a few crisp sounds from time to time.

In the end, it was Wang Zhuang who broke the silence. "I have been working here for many years, and I can basically use the equipment above. You ask...what do you want to do?"

Yi Xiao glanced at Wang Zhuang approvingly, and Wang Zhuang's calmness made Yi Xiao feel a sense of appreciation in his heart. "It's very simple. The instruments above are of some use to me. If you can use these instruments, then you are also useful to me. I can take you out of here."

Since these equipment are to be used to produce parts, Mo Hua alone is not enough, and Yi Xiao cannot let Mo Hua waste all his time on this. Now these workers are ready-made labor force.

After hearing Yi Xiao's words, Wang Zhuang pondered for a while and asked: "If we don't know how to use these instruments, will you just let us fend for ourselves?"

"Smart." Yi Xiao said with a smile: "If you have no value, then I have no obligation to care about your life or death. You know, you are just ordinary people. If you don't get the protection of the strong, you will only die in the end." .”
