A group of people set foot on the journey again, leaving behind the gloomy death city.
The world shrouded in darkness always brings a sense of depression, but fortunately this darkness has gradually gone away. A huge, running plasma engine is in front of it, and the eruption of its blaze illuminates the sky, finally dispersing the gloomy atmosphere along the way.
Vivian suggested going to those engines to see the situation. Hao Ren let the car navigation determine its own route, and then turn on a ramp that gradually rises along the steel ridge. As it gets closer and closer to the giant engine, this huge facility also presents more details in front of everyone. Hao Ren sees that its conical shell is actually distributed with a lot of rotating ramps like the Panshan Highway. Some faint light is quickly passing through those ramps, and there are a lot of radial extensions at the top of the engine, which are always connected. To the long steel bridge in the far land, I don't know what it is for.
When they were about to reach the half of the engine, the car host suddenly made a slight sound, and at the same time Y’zaks frowned: "There seems to be something in front."
As soon as Hao Ren heard this, she quickly parked the car on the side of the road. Lily jumped out and sneaked up to check the situation. She lay prone behind a large steel plate and looked at the outside with her head.
Others hurriedly followed. Lily pointed across the road and whispered, "Look! Transport fleet!"
Hao Ren was stunned to see a steel avenue leading straight to the upper end of the engine from a hundred meters away. The avenue was paved with a faint blue light tow-like traction facility, and each was transported like a tanker. The vehicle is busy back and forth on those guide rails, and it looks orderly.
"There is no breath of life ..." Vivian frowned, and suddenly threw a little bat towards a transport vehicle: Due to the giant engine, there was an unstable atmosphere in the vicinity, Vivian little bat finally There is a place to use.
Speaking of vampire girl, this bat detector has n’t been used for a long time ...
The little bat struggled to maintain his direction in the wind, and finally grabbed the outer shell of a tanker car in full view. It looked around on the car shell and crawled around to find the entrance-any zoologist with a normal view of three who would see a bat to make these moves might start to doubt life-but in the end the little bat can only Disappointed, because the whole car is completely closed except for the rear warehouse.
"Behind the car is a hopper, which may contain things such as engine fuel," Vivian snapped the little bat into his body, frowning, "The car has no entrance, no breath of life, and should run automatically. "
Hao Ren thought about it and made a bold decision: to keep up with those returning carriages.
Lily dared to sway around the transport vehicles and found that the latter was still running as usual without any response, and there was no such thing as a warning robot on the track, so everyone decided that this automatic system should be " Blind. Hao Ren drove the car and followed a transport vehicle leaving from the engine. He walked a long distance along the long steel avenue. After turning a few corners, he saw a steel jungle-like facility lined up in front.
This steel jungle was blocked by a ridge before, and everyone did not find it along the way.
Hao Ren drove the car carefully into this area, and a loud noisy noise greeted us. It is full of dark, gigantic machines or buildings that are running fast, and it is noisy and lively like a factory as big as an entire city. A large number of round Roll Roll tank cars and other types of transport vehicles came here from the engine along the rails, and they shuttled through the steel jungle in an orderly manner, and there were huge mechanical arms and creaking sounds. The lowering platform works in conjunction with these vehicles, constantly loading and unloading truck after truck.
A roar came from above, Nangong Wuyue looked up in amazement, she saw a steel block with a width of more than ten meters slowly flying through the air under the propulsion of the propeller, and combined tightly together not far away On a "block mountain"-these things are probably some kind of automatic container system.
The entire "factory city" is in a busy state of operation, with mechanical roars and roaring sounds of vehicles everywhere. Various indicator lights and high-power lighting systems also make it bright as daylight, but otherwise ... here Empty.
Hao Ren led everyone out of the car, and everyone was boldly exploring this strange place while advancing. They are not worried that there are any alarm devices here that will lead the city's guards out-to be honest they may not be able to meet individuals, Y’zaks has even planned whether to pull the meteorite down and blow it up: he hopes to blow out Locals come. But this idea was strongly dissuaded by everyone to go back.
Lily raised her ice and fire claws and walked side by side with Hao Ren in a vigilant look. She sniffed hard: "There is only the smell of steel and oil ..."
People pass by a running loading and unloading platform. There is a control room-like facility next to the loading and unloading platform, and the door is open. Nangong Sanba raised his hand with a crossbow and went over to check the situation. However, after entering the gate, he only saw a bunch of machines that were blinking and making noises.
"No one is here," Nangong Sanba came out of the control room and shook his head. "All systems are running automatically."
Hao Ren sighed: "Don't look for it, I'm afraid the whole planet is operating automatically."
However, just when his voice fell, a sharp roar came suddenly from behind everyone!
Hao Ren immediately turned around and watched, but found that a small device with an inverted triangle was rushing over. The small device seemed to be a patrolling robot. It circulated around the crowd quickly and issued a series of rounds. The creaking electronic sound, after a while, the normal voice sounded: "Citizens found."
Nanong Sanba asked subconsciously: "What are you talking about?"
A series of grunting noises came from the small machine: "Citizens are found and their health is well characterized. Please follow this guide device to the checkpoint. After disinfection, you can go to the first level of shelter."
After finishing, the little device turned and floated in the other direction. After floating a few meters, it turned and looked at the Hao Ren line in the unmoved place: "Citizen, please follow this guide device to the checkpoint. Take coercive measures. "
A magic spell in Y’zaks ’s hand does n’t know if he should blow up this thing, Hao Ren waved his hand and asked him to put away the magic: “Follow up and see what this little guy wants to do.”
A group of people followed behind the inverted triangle robot and walked around in circles, walking towards the depths of this steel jungle. They passed more factories and large machines that were running automatically, and saw countless driverless vehicles and transport platforms running around. This scene is so strange, just like the owner died, and he used it in his lifetime. The tool is still working in mid-air. Finally they were taken into a rectangular building, which finally isolated the noise and chaos outside.
The light in the rectangular building is bright, clean and tidy. The entire first half is a hall. Its size and cleanliness make people want to take off from the airport's waiting hall. There are sporadic small robots that seem to be busy in the hall, cleaning or repairing equipment.
Lily put away her two claw blades, it seemed that she was worried about scratching such a clean place-from this point she was more sensible than ordinary huskies: "I really did not expect this planet There is such a place. "
"The enclosed man-made facilities always allow people to ignore the sea and the mulberry fields outside," Vivian suddenly thoughtfully sighed, "I used to fall asleep in the tomb of the ancient dynasty, when I woke up, I saw the surrounding No change, I thought the world was still the same, but when I went out, I only saw that the whole country has been turned into a pile of rubble on the wilderness ... If someone has lived in this hall for ten thousand years, I am afraid he ca n’t think of it The city has become what it looks like. "
What Vivian sighs always makes people wonder what to say, so Hao Ren can only shrug and follow the little robot and continue to walk across the hall. And as a group of people approached the gate on the other side of the hall, the wall next to it suddenly lit up, and a figure appeared on the curtain wall! (To be continued.)
