The Red Cloud team quickly passed through the streets. They found some clues from the city museum to the municipal construction site.
"Saint Aral was once a fortress city, and fortifications were built underground, which means there were buildings such as air raid shelters. The source of the dream ritual is most likely underground."
"But it's raining so heavily now. Are the underground fortifications soaked in water?"
"It's hard to tell. Let's look for it first."
Hongyun contacted other teams and after sharing intelligence, they were also looking for a way to the underground.
"I've never heard of a subway in this city. The sewer system is still old infrastructure from many years ago. There's no way to get there."
Young Wolper bit his finger, looked at the waterproof map, and marked the locations of the remaining teams. After thinking for a moment, he made a decision:
"Go back to the city museum now. There is a place in there that you haven't looked for yet."
"Miss Hongyun, the keel has disappeared. It was probably transported away. Are there any clues?"
Hongyun gritted his teeth and said: "Yes, we did not search for the place where the last keel was placed. According to the information we found, that keel, as the skeleton of the mobile city, cannot be transported by conventional means. Even disassembly would cost a lot of money." "A lot of the time, we didn't find it because we thought the keel wouldn't stay there."
After making the decision, everyone returned immediately and found no other abnormalities along the way. They were neither attacked by the guards nor encountered phantoms from the past.
Stepping into the museum again, Hongyun shook out the poncho on his body, as if he was not wearing any clothes. The rain was too heavy and it was already soaked inside.
At this time, the museum fell into darkness. After the power supply was interrupted, even the electronic door needed to be opened manually. After several operators disarmed the alarm, they moved forward in a queue, carefully walking through the exhibition rooms along the way, and finally came to Chen Fang. Keel's exhibition hall.
"I'll go down first, and you guys will follow, leaving two people on guard."
Hongyun placed a lighting arrow downwards. The empty exhibition hall was the same as what they had seen before, nothing had changed.
Quickly tying ropes to the guardrail, the five operators headed by Hong Yun slowly descended to the bottom of the pit. After a few minutes, they arrived at the ground. Hong Yun pulled off the buckle around his waist, raised his bow and arrow vigilantly, and spoke with the operators. They remain vigilant and conduct searches.
"There are no signs of dragging, no signs of moving heavy equipment, and no signs of man-made damage. This was an orderly transfer. The keel has not left the museum and is still here."
"I have a clue here!"
Suddenly someone shouted. The operators scattered at the bottom of the pit did not rush over. Instead, they kept in contact with each other and moved slowly over. After exchanging slogans, they began to check.
It was a closed door with the same color as the wall. It had no door handle and was not obvious. It could not be seen from above.
However, this door seemed a bit too small and could only be passed by one person. It was not labeled. Several people speculated that it might be an employee passage.
"It can't be opened. If it is not opened from the inside, people from outside will have to violently destroy it if they want to get in. Our current actions are not suitable for violent destruction."
"No matter what, let's get it out of the way first. Don't let go of any clues."
Hongyun made a quick judgment and pulled out an explosive arrow and put it on her bow. Upon seeing this, the operator next to her immediately hid far away, and his eyes changed when he looked at her.
Ever since the doctor began to replenish the firepower of the Rhode Island operators, the sniper operators have become more and more violent, firing explosives at random. When they see an enemy, they want to blow it up first and kill it, so that during exercises, The vanguard operators were unwilling to face them directly, and were even filing reports to request more tactical support.
This kind of thing was unthinkable before, because the materials for making explosives require money, and maintaining daily training expenses also requires money. Without money, you can only live a tight life.
Fortunately, the Ph.D. student has a good fortune, and Rhode Island's inventory has gradually become abundant, so the operators have no psychological burden when working hard.
"Wait, don't shoot the arrow yet, the door is open!"
Hongyun tightened her bowstring and pointed at the door that slowly opened. What appeared in front of them was a multi-functional tactical tracked vehicle with multiple sets of road wheels, and the indicator light was flashing emerald green.
"Welcome to all Rhode Island operators, please come with me."
The crawler vehicle slowly moved inside. Several operators looked at each other and informed their companions of the situation. Then they left the two of them behind again. Hongyun led the remaining people into the small door. She was highly concentrated. If there was any problem, she would The arrow will be released immediately, which will at least buy time for the companions behind him to escape.
"Mr. Timos said that if the Rhodes Island operators arrive, they can invite you in."
Hongyun measured the distance of the passage with her feet. After walking about thirty meters, her eyes suddenly opened up. The soft light shone down. What she saw was a large underground space that had been expanded, with hundreds of beds placed, each one There were people lying on the beds, and looking at their peaceful sleeping faces, they seemed to be dreaming.
"All alive."
"No, some are already dead. Are they the source of maintaining the dream ritual?"
The tracked vehicle made an explanation voice: "Please don't misunderstand me. Mr. Timos did not kill anyone. He explained the relevant risks to everyone, and there is also a paper agreement. I have an electronic version here that can be disclosed." , it can be proved that everyone is voluntary, and those who unfortunately died will be compensated, and at least their names will be engraved on the monument."
Hongyun said coldly: "I ask you to wake up these sleeping people. This should only be part of it, right? The same is true for other places?"
"To wake up people who are dreaming, you need to activate the alarm, and they will wake up slowly. Waking up means the collapse of the dream world. Please choose carefully."
"There is no time. Wake up everyone. The spreading Source Stone veins are threatening the safety of the city. My colleagues are trying to rescue more people."
The tracked vehicle was silent for two seconds: "I'm just a tracked vehicle. You need to operate the alarm to activate the alarm. The control panel is over there, come with me."
Hongyun raised her hand to stop the two operators from continuing to follow, and walked to the console alone. When she walked halfway, she saw an empty bed and asked unexpectedly: "Is anyone awake yet?"
"That's Mr. Rogers. He woke up forty minutes ago and has left. No one's freedom is restricted here."
Forty minutes ago?
That seems to be when the Doctor got in touch with Rhode Island.
Hongyun shook her head and put aside her distracting thoughts. She stood in front of the console and pressed the red button according to the note on the side. In an instant, she noticed that the colors in her field of vision were brighter.
The first level of dream, lifted.
