117. Speeding up

"The order was given by Tachibana Masamune. The order is valid and passed. The building will enter fully closed mode within 30 seconds." Kaguya replied respectfully.

A second ago, the lights of Genji Heavy Industries were bright, but as this order was issued, it turned off the lights from bottom to top, layer by layer, leaving only emergency lights.

The fire escapes and emergency exits were locked, and the building was divided into different restricted areas. Anyone who wanted to enter from one area to another must destroy the door or wall, and this would inevitably be noticed by Kaguya.

Snipers swarmed out from the rooftop of the building. If someone tried to break the glass curtain wall and use a rigging to descend from the outside, they would be sniped during the descent.

This is a security measure that has been rehearsed many times. The security level of Genji Heavy Industries is far beyond Gu Chen's imagination. It's just because the Metropolitan Police Department will raid this place tomorrow, so the security tonight will be weak.

Tachibana Masamune's tone was cold, "Once the building enters a state of total lockdown, no mice from anywhere can escape!"

Yuan Zhisheng glanced at the floors. Originally, they would reach the Mural Hall in about ten floors.

"I..." Just as he started to speak, the elevator shook violently again, the lights flickered a few times and then went out, leaving everything pitch black.

There was an earthquake, and the earthquake magnitude was above seven!

Next to him, Masamune Tachibana, who had just turned around to listen to what he said, was hit hard against the elevator wall again, with blood dripping from his face.

His reaction was much faster than ordinary people, but he didn't expect an earthquake at all, especially when the elevator braked and stopped before the earthquake. He was thinking about the possibility of someone invading the mural hall, and was distracted by Yuan Zhisheng's speech.

So when the shock wave hit, he was completely unprepared.

Tachibana Masamune held on to the elevator wall and didn't stand up for a long time.

He was very old, and it was almost killing him to suffer such heavy blows over and over again.

The elevator car swayed like a pirate ship, but it wasn't shaking, because the amplitude was more than one meter. In the eyes of most people, the skyscraper of Genji Heavy Industries stood quietly on the ground, motionless. But this was just an illusion.

Skyscrapers use steel bars as their skeletons. The physical properties of steel bars are not only strong but also flexible. When subjected to external forces, they will naturally bend to relieve stress and then rebound.

At the height of Genji Heavy Industries, the top floor will sway with an amplitude of tens of centimeters in strong winds, but it is insignificant compared to its height. But in a high-intensity earthquake, the moment the shock wave passes, the entire Shinjuku area

The skyscrapers swayed like cedars in a strong wind.

Gen Zhisheng inserted the spider cut into the elevator wall with his backhand, stabilized his body, and at the same time helped Tachibana Masamune up.

The phone vibrated in his windbreaker pocket. He took it out and took a look. It was an earthquake warning text message from the city hall.

The building is still under lockdown. The people in the executive bureau are okay. They are desperadoes and can remain calm during an earthquake, but there are ordinary people working overtime in this building.

There were rapid footsteps outside, and the people in the building were evacuating according to the practiced "Earthquake Emergency Evacuation Plan". Everyone evacuated step by step, diverting towards different safety exits, everything was in order.

Because Japan is a country with many earthquakes, the Japanese are no strangers to earthquakes, but this calmness may not last long. When they arrive at the safety exit, they will find that the safety door and all safety passages are closed.

"The blockade must be lifted," Yuan Zhisheng said.

He could already predict what would happen when the refugees found that their escape routes were cut off.

At that time, all discipline or order will collapse, and people will only want to find a way to escape. The instinct of panic and survival is really terrible.

"It cannot be lifted!" Masamune Tachibana said anxiously: "If outsiders really see the murals, or even make copies and take them away, the consequences will not be as simple as the casualties of a few people, but will affect thousands of people! Those secrets must not be revealed to anyone.

It’s leaking!”

He covered his bleeding forehead and face with a handkerchief, "After the security door is locked, intruders cannot escape from the mural hall. I opened a fire staircase. It only takes five or six minutes."

"There will be aftershocks at any time. Five or six minutes is too long." Yuan Zhisheng said solemnly: "I will solve the problem in the mural hall. After five minutes, no matter what the result is, open the door!"

"Young boy!" Tachibana Masamune grabbed his arm and opened his mouth to persuade him.

With nothing more than justice in mind, Yuan Zhisheng pushed open the access hatch above the car and said, "Don't worry, there shouldn't be many species in this world that can threaten my species."

He turned over lightly, then pulled Tachibana Masamune up, and helped him walk to the angle steel beam between the elevator shafts.

The width of the beam is only about 30 centimeters, and there are elevator shafts in the front and rear.

The high-speed elevator went up and down, with hundreds of meters of steel cables leading from the roof to the basement. The elevator shaft was filled with sharp wind sounds and sparks, and the wind speed exceeded Level 10.

"In five minutes, whether I come back or not, the blockade will be lifted." Yuan Zhisheng jumped up, grabbed the steel cable, and slashed at the connection between the steel cable and the car with a knife.

The car sparked brightly on the slide rails and fell into the bottomless well, while the steel cable took him up rapidly and submerged into the darkness above.



In front of Gu Chen is a stainless steel safety door.

Xia Mi tapped with his fingers, and the sound was unusually dull.

"It's an integrally cast steel piece, at the level of a small vault door, and the walls are also reinforced with steel bars."

No wonder there are no windows on this floor and only one security door. This is indeed a vault, stocked with priceless works of art and dragon clan secrets.

"Can it be opened?" Xia Mi asked.

Gu Chen thought for a while, of course violent destruction is possible, but it will leave trouble. Presumably through the destruction of the elevator just now, the whole building has now reacted, and it is only a matter of time before their identities are exposed, unless they kill them hard.

Otherwise, a hybrid who can violently break open the vault door... bloodline, speech and spirit, there will be too many things to explain at that time.

"Let's take the elevator." Gu Chen said.

"Okay." Xia Mi looked like he was following his lead and was very obedient.

However, as soon as the two of them approached the elevator, their footsteps suddenly paused because they sensed the rapidly rising energy behind the bronze door of the elevator.

The next second, with a loud bang, spiderweb-like cracks spread across the elevator door!

The door is made of gunmetal, a copper-tin alloy that is extremely hard but lacks toughness. Once the impact exceeds its limit, it will crack like a stone.

Now it is crumbling, because someone is breaking down the door behind it. In the sight of the two people, arms wearing black suits hit the bronze door again and again.

Even the most excellent hybrid species, the toughness of muscles and bones cannot be compared with dragons, but that man was bombarding hard bronze with his flesh.

"Is this the so-called 'Emperor' of the eight Sheqi families?" Xia Mi said calmly.

"An elephant turtle." Gu Chen said.

Xia Mi looked at him in confusion, what kind of ghost description is this?

"Just a guy who's not bad." Gu Chen said with a smile.

Xia Mi said softly, "Ah", and he probably understood.
