Alien paradise
Chapter 368 Underground Strong Wall
After entering the cave, Chaoyang saw that the road under his feet was paved with wooden boards, and there were many oil lamps hanging on both sides of the cave. The floor and walls were extremely damp, and there were drops of water dripping from time to time on the head. The ticking sound was particularly loud in the cave.
He remembered that Barif's work diary mentioned that the cave was often filled with seawater.
The thick rubber pipes placed aside are probably water pumping equipment. This is quite similar to the working environment of a mine. Once a flooding accident occurs, it is unrealistic to wait for it to drain away naturally. The only way to resume work is to rely on a pump to remove the accumulated water. .
"Tell me, what's going on now." Chaoyang asked casually.
"There is not much progress. The water seepage becomes more serious as you go north. Ordinary people cannot pass through that waterlogged area." The man shook his head. "Has Gleick Academy sent the blasting design drawing?"
"I haven't received it yet."
"Then we are really helpless." The young man smiled bitterly, "The locals are openly confronting the company. I don't know how long the governor can endure it... Oh, sir, I am not criticizing your idea. I want the shortest possible solution." This is the only way to achieve results within a short period of time, but many people don’t understand this.”
"It doesn't matter, I just need to get the results." Chaoyang has now gradually understood the role he plays, "What do you think the new energy the company is looking for will be?"
"You...you ask me?"
"how?"
Chaoyang glanced at him impatiently.
"No, it's nothing... It's just that you rarely discuss this kind of issue with me before." The other party was even flattered and said, "I guess it may be a strange structure, or simply... a relic of the gods that can emit unlimited energy. Otherwise, the company I won’t take this search operation so seriously. It must be better than the steam miracle in order for the Phlogiston Company to win in this energy competition. My lord, do you think my speculation is reasonable?”
Boy, this guy knows a lot. He could even guess that the relics of gods could be used.
But Barif seemed to know better.
It's a pity that he can't extract secrets from a non-existent person.
"Hey, how far is this from the wall?"
"Ah?" The young man was stunned for a moment, and turned back with some confusion, "We have only walked less than fifty meters, and there should be more than three hundred meters to go. Mr. Barif...what can I do for you? ?”
"Your question has alerted him!" Elodie, who shared vision and perception, couldn't help but remind him.
"There are no guards on the road?"
"The guards are all at the bottom of the cave. Isn't this your arrangement?"
"Hmm..." Chaoyang glanced at the surrounding environment, "There are so many extensions to this cave. They should have been checked, right? I don't want anyone to sneak into the cave quietly from other places."
"...Sir, are you tired? Why don't you hold the wall and rest for a while..." The young man did not answer him directly for the first time.
But the other party's suspicious expression already told the answer - this is an indisputable fool's question.
"Look, what is that!?" Chaoyang suddenly glared.
The man turned his head subconsciously, and Chaoyang raised his foot and kicked him in the leg socket. As his knees suddenly bent, the man suddenly lost his balance, fell backwards, and hit his head heavily on the cave wall. In order to ensure that he was unconscious, Chaoyang also placed a palm on his forehead. As long as the force was enough, anyone could sleep very soundly.
"What are you doing!?" Elodie was shocked.
"What else can I do? Of course it's to extract information! You don't think that I, a person who knows nothing about him, can escape unscathed after using tricks to get all the information?" Chaoyang hugged the man's arm, Dragging him into a dark fork in the road, "And we don't have that much time."
Using words to get information without anyone noticing is a common plot in spy movies. He doesn't think he has such superb speaking skills, or he pins his hopes on the other party's stupidity. He is a demon, and even if all his willpower is lost, the experience left behind after using his abilities thousands of times will not disappear out of thin air.
After Chaoyang made sure that no one was walking around, he used the dreaming technique on the unconscious man!
The latter's memory maze does not welcome outsiders, but the subconscious obstruction is like a mantis blocking the car for him. Chaoyang easily invaded the depths of his memory, and after browsing it, he spliced it together with a forged memory fragment.
Fifteen minutes later, Chaoyang arrived at the bottom of the cave, where the mysterious building was excavated, and asked, "Guard, where are the guards!"
Immediately, a guard carrying a gun ran over. He was also wearing the clothes of Phlogiston Company. "Lord Barif, what can I do for you?"
"Little Shocker fell down halfway and hit his head. I don't have time to take care of him. You ask some brothers to carry him out of the cave and see a doctor."
"Yes!" the latter responded immediately.
"Not bad." Elodie praised sourly, "The devil's ability is really enviable. If I can transform those guys who do bad things into good people, the world will probably be a lot more peaceful."
Chaoyang laughed out loud, "What are you thinking? What shapes a person is his life experience, not a few minutes of memory fragments. In addition, fabricating memories out of thin air is easy for the brain to recognize, so I asked him to fall down first. If he is knocked unconscious again, it will be like his foot slipping. It will feel a bit strange if he thinks about it after he wakes up, but he probably won't have the courage to question his boss Barif."
"Then how much willpower did you use?"
"This... probably 30 to 40%."
Yes, the only price for doing this is willingness.
The Dreaming Technique consumes less energy, and it is an ability that can be used whenever you want. However, implanting memories is different. The clearer the memory fragment, the greater the energy cost. Observation, interception, overwriting... a set of operations is almost the same. It took four hundred points.
At this moment, he has less than 600 remaining will power.
"So you've thought about it a long time ago. Okay, I don't blame you for investing too much in this critical moment. So now... Mr. Demon, coming to this cave is like going home, right?"
"You can say that." Chaoyang's tone became serious.
Because in addition to having a basic understanding of excavation projects, he also knew many other things...
Both Shocker and Barif were professional scholars recruited by the Phlogiston Company with huge sums of money. Along with it, there was also a fully armed escort team. The company seemed to have determined that the new energy source was to the east of the Acropolis very early, and Barif was also very confident. Within a month, he found the outer wall of the "mysterious building" under the cave.
Chaoyang saw that in the dim light, a straight wall occupied most of the cave lengthwise. It has no top and no bottom. The exposed height is about two meters and the length is more than 20 meters. The deeper end of it invades the standing water, so its final length cannot be judged.
At the beginning, it only exposed a corner of the edge, and the cave was far less spacious than it is now. It is actually more like a "dog hole" eroded by sea water. People can only crawl on their knees if they want to get in. What it looks like now was entirely dependent on manpower to dig out and clean it up bit by bit.
Chaoyang walked to the wall, picked up a stone and knocked it - the surface was hard and the sound was crisp. Judging from the material, it should be some kind of metal wall and have certain rust resistance. He also found that there were pits of varying sizes in many places on the wall, which were obviously made by violent chisels. The deepest pit could almost fit a finger.
This means the wall is more than ten centimeters thick.
In addition, Barif also tried the combination of steel drill bits and steam wonders, but the effect was minimal, which shows that its hardness is also quite amazing.
Faced with a thick, hard metal wall, it’s no wonder they’re in a dilemma. Even if gunpowder blasting was used according to Barif's plan, it was doubtful whether a big hole would be opened in the wall.
