Chapter 18 Infiltration
The hanging continent does not have the actual sun and moon, and the day and night changes are completely revealed by the layer of orange-yellow law shield on the surface of the hanging continent.
In the daytime, the orange shield will emit warm sunshine similar to the sunlight, but at night it will be pitch black. Except for the starlight reflected by other hanging continents in the starry sky, there is no moonlight.
The Holy City of Atlantis has been destroyed and there is no energy in the city for lighting. In the dark night, the "Wheel of Heaven" branch is like a huge monster crawling in the darkness. The surroundings are dead silent. This area destroyed by the fire of war is unwilling to build a nest and stay here.
Qin Lun quietly sneaked back to his original hidden place. When he observed the surrounding environment with his Tianling Eye again, he couldn't help but be secretly surprised. During the two hours when he left for food, the apostles hidden around him almost increased several times. Although it was impossible to know the clear number, it was at least more than twenty people.
"Can't wait any longer!"
Qin Lun's sense of urgency increased rapidly, and more than 20 apostles had exceeded one-tenth of this battle area. By tomorrow, this number would probably exceed fifty people. At that time, a fight would definitely break out. Whether Qin Lun participated in the war or not, it would affect his plan.
He checked his equipment, stood up from the darkness, unfolded his storm, and flew towards the military fortress in the darkness like lightning.
The hidden position he was at was less than two hundred meters away from the Wheel of Tianhua. Although there were countless broken walls and ruins in the middle, it took him only six or seven seconds to arrive in front of this military fortress without hesitation and swept into one of the breakouts.
"Fuck~~#%#*%" There were countless low curses ringing in the ruins of the military fortress, and a commotion faintly aroused in the darkness. However, the commotion caused by Qin Lun quickly subsided, and a strange calm appeared around him.
After Qin Lun flashed into the military fortress, he did not go deeper into it immediately. Instead, he leaned against the wall and looked outside the fortress with a burning look. After a few minutes, he found that the commotion had really subsided, and no other apostle followed him in. He suddenly exhaled a long breath, turned around and walked towards the dark fortress.
He had long thought about the night exploration of the "Wheel of Heaven" branch. Although there were more than 20 apostles hidden around the military fortress, there were not many people who dared to act in the dark.
First, I don’t know if I have gained anything when entering the military fortress at night. However, searching for such a large military fortress in the darkness can’t be searched in a few hours. When I came out, it was basically dawn and I would inevitably be besieged by everyone.
Second, the "Wheel of Heaven" branch was originally an important apostle garrison after all, and it is hard to say whether there are any mechanism traps inside. If you are injured inside and are besieged by other apostles after coming out, the possibility of falling is more than 90%.
Qin Lun's only concern was that among the more than 20 apostles around him, there were particularly powerful assassins and thieves. If such apostle saw him acting in advance and could not help but follow him, it might really trigger all the hidden apostles and lead to his subsequent bankruptcy.
Fortunately, he bet right! There were no such assassins and thieves among the more than 20 apostles, or these people had already come in quietly. A few assassins and thieves would not affect his plan, and not to mention that assassins and thieves did not detect halos and celestial eyes. In the darkness, they were no different from ordinary apostles.
Qin Lun took out a flat pot containing walnut wine and poured a mouthful into his mouth. Detection of halo is passive, but the Tianling Eye requires energy consumption. For the next investigation, he must maintain the Tianling Eye throughout the process.
Three fluorescent hands slowly jumped in the clock-shaped pupils, making Qin Lun look a little weird, and the surrounding scenery showed the effect of a black and white film movie in his eyes.
The fortress he broke into seemed to be a checkpoint. There was a long steel table in the corner, with a broken radio station and caller scattered on the table. There were a few long-barrel guns on the ground of the room, which should be some kind of heavy machine gun and other weapons.
Qin Lun squatted on the ground, shaved his fingers, and a strange look appeared on his face. Although the table in this place was covered with dust, there was not much dust on the ground.
"Are there still indigenous residents hiding in this fortress?" Qin Lun's eyes flashed slightly.
He did not think that other apostles had entered the fort before him. In that case, there would be no dust on the ground, but would leave obvious footprints. Only by entering this room frequently would not be much dust on the ground. This place was originally a checkpoint, and perhaps someone observed the situation outside through this break.
The destruction of the Holy City of Atlantis has only been two or three years since the destruction of this city. It was not unusual for people to hide here now. In the broken starry sky, once any intelligent race is destroyed, what awaits them will be an extremely miserable fate.
In the past two or three years, the intelligent race that attacked the Atlantis continent controlled all small and medium-sized towns on the continent. The Holy City was the last meal left. Except for a very small number of people who escaped from other hanging continents through portals, the Atlantis people will become slaves to the war races.
If you can enter the mines and workshops to work, that is the luckiest result. If you are divided into similar demons, it is not surprising that these intelligent races in the chaotic evil camp will become the blood food that is raised.
As for those Atlantis who fled their homes, they may become scavengers like the Lulu tribe, and they will become the lowest class of the intelligent race in the broken starry sky.
Qin Lun stepped over the garbage on the ground and walked out of the room. Outside the checkpoint was a corridor with a little curve, surrounded by some rooms with numbers on the doors. Some of these rooms were closed, some were half open, and they should have been the residences of some soldiers on duty.
After Qin Lun hurriedly inspected one or two of them, he stopped paying attention. He accelerated his pace and walked along the corridor towards the interior of the fortress. Turning past the end of the corridor, another slightly curved corridor appeared in front of Qin Lun.
After walking through several corridors like this, Qin Lun stopped and frowned. He could see that the military fortress not only had a circular building on the outside, but also had a circular structure inside. It lived up to the reputation of "Wheel of Heaven", and it was a maze-shaped roulette.
Such a building layout is the most complex. If it weren't for a long time, you could not find the key area at all. If it weren't before, everyone knew that the center of the roulette was the main control room. But now, the main control room must have been destroyed, and not to mention that what Qin Lun was looking for was not there.
"You can come whatever you are afraid of. It seems that you can't save any savings!" Qin Lun sighed, took out the walnut wine again, and took several sips in succession.
When Qin Lun closed his eyes and opened his eyes again, the blue veins around his eye sockets became erect like small snakes.
At this time, in his eyes, lines of time and space condensed by perception spread around like spiders. The walls of the reinforced concrete structure slowly faded away. In Qin Lun's eyes, they became architectural frames composed of simple lines, and even the things behind the wall were clear.
Qin Lun did not hesitate anymore, and his body brought about afterimages in the dark corridor and ran along the passage. When he encountered a closed dead end, he immediately changed directions, just to pass through the most places at the fastest speed. Even if some rooms looked more important, he did not stop at all.
While running, Qin Lun used his claw chain from time to time, and his feet passed through a few levels without touching the ground. There were a small amount of shadows on the walls of these places, which should be some high-tech traps. Although he didn't know if these high-tech institutions were useful, he was unwilling to take risks. The best choice was to avoid them with the help of the wind step and the claw chain.
"Huh?" After running in the passage for about twenty minutes, he suddenly stopped. It was probably almost the core of the military fortress.
As soon as he stopped, Qin Lun staggered and sat on the ground with a heavy breath. Two lines of bright red blood stains flowed down his closed eyes. After a breath, he stood up, his eyes opened again were dull, and he looked like a blind blind man.
"With the line of time and space for a long time, it will temporarily affect your vision!" Qin Lun was a little surprised. This was the first time he discovered this defect of the Eye of the Clock.
"Fortunately, the combination of Tianling Eyes and detection halos will not affect the battle!" Qin Lun rubbed his eyes, looked in a certain direction with a little tired expression, and murmured to himself, "I finally found it!"
In the direction he was looking at, two orange-red balls of light appeared on the projection of the retina, which was the manifestation of biological body temperature in the eyes of Tianling.
...
In a huge hangar with space, two huge black shadows were busy surrounding a bulky instrument. In addition to this bulky instrument, there were two rows of huge human-shaped mechas arranged on both sides, and the total number seemed to be no less than forty.
However, the surface of these human-shaped mechas is mostly bumpy, and cables and parts of various colors are exposed in the damaged holes on their bodies, which seems to be no longer available.
"Meimei, are you doing well?" A huge black shadow turned his head and asked to his companion. Its hand was holding a weak explosion-proof light in its hand to be responsible for lighting. After looking carefully, it found that it was an exoskeleton mecha.
This mecha is generally used for engineering and simple military purposes. It has a single occupant and can use powerful robot arms to operate bulky engineering equipment and a few heavy cannons.
"Tang, don't urge me, you can restore the power in the main control room immediately. Those two guys can't leave the main control room for less than two hours!" A female voice with a crisp voice came from another exoskeleton mecha.
