Chapter 338: Diamond-Shaped Box
After hearing what Fang Linyan said, the only thing Goat could do was to shrug his shoulders and say,
“Well, I can’t give you an answer in this regard. The only suggestion I can give you is to hurry up, because I guess the other group of contractors will probably try to come here. They can come to this underground base, meaning they probably received the hidden main mission too.”
Fang Linyan nodded and said,
“Got it. Let’s go.”
So they walked back and went to the right tunnel. After walking about 20 meters, they also saw a door blocking the way ahead.
However, the style of this door was obviously different from the door on the left. It looked much thinner. It was actually the case because there was an obvious large hole on the door. Judging from the cutting surface, this door was only 3cm thick. The materials were even low grade.
Obviously, the people of the Bloody Umbrella Company had already prepared before coming here. They brought a cutting machine and opened the door violently.
Fang Linyan checked it habitually, and he immediately discovered another very interesting fact.
There was actually a NASA logo on the door here. After searching around, he confirmed that the parts of the door were produced in the 1960s and 1970s.
“Interesting, really interesting. Could it be that this secret underwater ruins were jointly built by the United States and the Soviet Union?”
Fang Linyan muttered to himself.
“No, it’s impossible. At that time, the 2 sides were in the cold war period. What’s the point of jointly building such an underwater base? What’s more, the technology at that time couldn’t do this at all! Besides, how could this underwater base have anything to do with NASA? That’s NASA!”
With a stomach full of mysteries, Fang Linyan continued to move forward. They then found narrow cabins behind the door and more signs of human activities.
At this time, Goat also became curious. He began to walk around each cabin, collecting information.
They soon discovered a shocking truth. Judging from the documents and materials found in these cabins, this place turned out to be a space station launched by NASA in the 1970s!!
This made them feel more and more strange.
How could this space station flying outside the atmosphere fall into the bottom of this underground lake, and it was kept in a dry environment for decades?
This mystery, obviously, could only be known by continuing to go down.
They continued to move forward, but they found a corpse in a passage. The corpse was also turned into bones, but it was still wearing a thick layer of protective clothing.
It was worth mentioning that Fang Linyan found several wounds similar to “sword wounds” on his skull.
The appearance of the corpse undoubtedly raised their alert, so they were extra cautious when moving forward.
Soon, another corpse appeared in front of them.
The corpse fell facing them, indicating that this guy was killed while fleeing outside.
Not only that, the neck bone of the corpse was almost shattered, and a deep hole the size of a wine glass was cracked in the left chest rib. This brutal blow probably deleted more than half of his heart.
Stabbing the heart first, then the neck. Such brutal attacks could be described as merciless. The explorers must have encountered something terrible at that time.
Not only that, but there were strange scorched and dissolved marks on the bone wounds of the corpse. This showed that the enemy’s weapon had an extremely high temperature. Even the bone had dissolved after being pierced!
Even worse, what made Fang Linyan and Goat feel depressed was that the enemy who killed everyone was 100% still here.
After they looked at each other, Fang Linyan let the elite mechanical warrant officer walk in front. Soon, they entered a hall. This place should be remodeled from the most spacious part of the space station. There were several corpses that had turned into white bones too.
If Fang Linyan guessed correctly, most members of the entire expedition should have been here at that time.
Most importantly, the “Pandora’s Box” they opened should also be here!
The behemoth Bloody Umbrella Company couldn’t even bear the consequence of opening that box, so they could only reluctantly give up this powerful base!
The two inspected the corpses carefully. They could tell from the clothes and the size of the pelvis that there were 3 men and 2 women among these corpses.
When the massacre came, they should be in a hot debate around the table.
The subsequent massacre should be short and efficient. This could be seen from the bones scattered around the table. A woman wanted to escape, but she only escaped 3 steps before dying beside the table.
There was a floor plan on the table, but most of it was stained with blood. There was even a skull on the floor plan…
It could be seen that the owner of the skull didn’t foresee the sudden danger at all. He was beheaded while observing the map at his desk, and his head fell on the table. A lot of blood spurted out from the neck cavity!
The other person was about to resist, but his strength was obviously far from that of the terrifying enemy. He was directly stabbed in the chest by some kind of sharp weapon, then he was thrown on the wall 5 meters away.
Originally, Fang Linyan had always been a little proud of his reasoning and analysis ability, but now it was the first time that he deeply felt that this ability still had a great negative impact.
Looking at these corpses, he couldn’t help but began to restore the scene of them being slaughtered before they died. He could even feel their shock, helplessness, and despair at that time… except that there was no pain because death came too swiftly. They had no chance to feel the pain at all.
At this time, Goat suddenly said,
“Boss, look at this.”
Fang Linyan walked quickly to Goat, and he was startled. It turned out that a large diamond-shaped object appeared in a corner.
The purpose of this diamond-shaped object was unknown. It looked like a crystal that was being cut crosswise. It was about 3 meters high and 2 meters in diameter. It had fallen down, and the middle was empty.
The most eye-catching feature of this crystal was that the 5 diamond-shaped surfaces around it have peculiar patterns. They looked like the expressions of some kind of evil, strange and cold creature, which was the opposite of human face. It had the abstract taste of the poker face.
The expressions on each face were also different, which were happiness, anger, worry, thought, and fear.
In the center of this diamond-shaped object, there was a dense honeycomb grid. Fang Linyan reached out to touch it. The grid inside was tough and soft, but it was only the size of a finger. It seemed to be used to preserve something.
On the outside of this diamond-shaped object, Fang Linyan found something that looked like words. These words were like densely packed buildings, composed of various black rectangles, squares, and triangles. It was similar to program code too.
The sentences written in such words were like a row of undulating buildings; they also seemed to be precisely programmed circuit boards. It was full of mechanical precision.
However, neither Fang Linyan nor Goat could understand the meaning, so they could only record it silently.
Surrounding this large diamond-shaped object, there were several machines. They should be specially brought by the Bloody Umbrella Company to open the diamond-shaped crystal, and they obviously succeeded.
Of course, their success was very unfortunate for them, because the price was their lives.
For the entire Bloody Umbrella Company, it was definitely not a good thing. This ruined all their painstaking efforts in a short period of time!
***
After investigating the situation here, Fang Linyan and Goat glanced at each other. They found that the arrow on the retinas still pointed forward.
There was a tightly closed steel door there, but it seemed to be opened by sliding left and right, so the door wouldn’t be too thick.
Not only that, there was a cutting machine brought by the Blood Umbrella Organization beside. Fang Linyan tried it just now and it worked very well, so it seemed that it was not difficult to open the door.
However, just as they walked to the front of the sliding door, Fang Linyan felt extremely dangerous. The feeling was as if someone had put the tip of a knife on his throat. It was cold and dangerous. Once he opened the door, something extremely bad would happen immediately.
Obviously, Fang Linyan was definitely not a hot-headed person, so he simply gave up, but he was not reconciled to leaving like this.
So Fang Linyan let the elite mechanical warrant officer operate the cutting machine, and he stayed far away. He could run away as soon as something happened.
However, when the elite mechanical warrant officer walked forward with the cutting machine. Fang Linyan suddenly felt that something was wrong as if something had invaded into his mind. It was chilling.
It was like having a popsicle in his mouth.
Immediately afterward, the elite mechanical warrant officer took the initiative to suspend Fang Linyan’s order and turned around slowly. At this moment, he could see that there was a faint blue light in its eyes, and the eyes had fluctuations. Even the pupils of the electronic eyes had a deep feeling.
Simply put, it seemed to have its own soul in an instant!!
Immediately afterward, it actually said in a cold tone,
“Human, if I were you, I wouldn’t do such a stupid thing.”
