Chapter 34 Hall of Honor
"Why do you think there are so many people coming to a D-level shelter hidden in Shankara? Anyone who can come here is at least not stupid." Tang Yifei's eyes were heavy.
And the candidate directors are selected from many "not stupid people" by big data.
They are all human beings.
However, some people are shrewd and tactful and hide behind giants to enjoy the shelter and use their power to influence the situation; while some people don't want to take responsibility, but can resolve the turmoil vigorously and resolutely, and even have the mood to flirt.
Tang Yifei is more optimistic about the latter.
"Old Fang, the world has changed, and we are getting older. Young people still have a strong mentality and receptive ability. We old men can do something besides running errands now, but we still have to look after these young people in the future!"
The vice-captain was silent.
Tang Yifei patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brothers, let's take a break. When the first wave of radiation peak passes, we will leave."
After the first wave of radiation peaks, the remaining radiation dust is dangerous, but wearing special protective clothing can play a certain protective role.
Of course, defensive suits are not foolproof.
Because in addition to radiation, there are also violent and bloodthirsty zombies out there.
Humans are not the only ones who will be turned into zombies.
Most of the people have been evacuated, but there are still many animals, domestic pets, snakes, insects, rats, and ants. What kind of monsters will radiation turn them into, and what dangers will it pose?
It's all an unknown.
Although I was mentally prepared to die on the mission, I had enough energy to start again, hoping to keep my brothers alive for a while.
……
On the other side, Lin Qing took advantage of the crowd and slipped into the mission center.
The mission center hall was packed with people.
But most of them came here out of curiosity, and not many actually registered as missionaries.
Lin Qing found a guide robot and used her privileges as a director candidate to have the guide robot take her from the staff passage to the backyard to receive her reward.
But she didn't expect that the guide robot took her into the wing room and opened the secret passage from the wing room. There was actually a secret room below?
The secret room is a space only three cubic meters in size, with a stone table placed in the middle.
Lin Qing followed the instructions of the guide robot and placed the tasker's bracelet on the stone table. A holographic screen immediately popped up above the table. After following the instructions to complete the identity verification. The tabletop suddenly opened, and a mechanism platform rose up. An exquisite lacquer box was placed on the mechanism platform.
When the box was opened, a medal was placed inside.
The medal does not have any style, just the pattern of a seed faintly visible in the middle. It looks like it is made of jet jade, but it feels metallic, and I don't know what it is made of.
The most exquisite of these is the design.
The medal seems to be magnetic and can be directly attached to the task bracelet. In addition, the lacquer box is also equipped with a ring holder, a brooch holder, and a pendant holder. The medal can be mounted on it and can be worn as a ring, brooch, or pendant.
Thinking of the high-profile situation in which candidates in suits were surrounded, Lin Qing decisively installed the medal as a pendant and hid it. She originally wanted to hang it on a pearl chain, but after thinking about it carefully, it was still not safe enough. She finally decided to put her hand into her clothes and buckle the pendant. In the middle of underwear.
A cold feeling next to my body instantly hit my head, and my irritable nerves were soothed at this moment.
It actually has the wonderful effect of refreshing the brain and refreshing the mind!
Lin Qing thought it was over and was about to turn around and leave.
Suddenly there was a sound of a mechanism turning underground, and Lin Qing quickly held on to the stone table to stabilize her body.
After a while, the turning sound ended.
There is another secret passage on the floor of the secret room!
[Beep. 】
[Those who have detected the task are eligible to receive the big gift package lottery, please go to the Hall of Honor to receive the reward. If you give up or do not want to receive it for the time being, you can leave the secret room directly. 】
give up?
How is it possible.
That's what you've been waiting for!
This is a steep spiral stone staircase with no handrails or guardrails, and the bottom is a dark hole that is bottomless. In addition, the entire shelter entered power-saving mode. After Lin Qing entered, except for the two meters below his feet, everything in front and back was completely dark.
And it was deathly dark.
Not to mention those who are afraid of heights or claustrophobia, normal people would probably have weak feet walking on such a steep and bottomless stone staircase.
Lin Qing was very excited.
She counted the steps while observing the patterns on the stone stairs.
A figure was drawn on the upper right corner of each stone staircase. Lin Qing tried to find the pattern, but finally found that there was no pattern at all. Then he gave up and concentrated on counting.
I kept counting, but the numbers got messy.
All right.
She gave up completely.
She is a student of Chinese medicine, so rounding off she can be considered a liberal arts student.
Retreat from math, but don’t embarrass yourself, baby!
He didn't know how long this staircase was. Lin Qing estimated that he had walked for almost five minutes and still couldn't reach the end.
[Beep! 】The task bracelet suddenly vibrated.
[It is detected that the quester has arrived at the entrance of the Hall of Honor. Please jump off the triangular stone ladder. 】
Coincidentally, the upper right corner of the stone staircase where Lin Qing was standing was a triangle.
but.
Jump?
Seriously?
This pitch-black darkness is bottomless...
Lin Qing thought for a while, the mission center would never murder the missionaries, right? My heart skipped a beat and I jumped straight away.
Sure enough, when it fell in the air, it was caught by an invisible magnetic field.
A mechanical voice came from the darkness:
[Matching successful. Welcome missionaries to the Hall of Honor. 】
As soon as he finished speaking, the darkness dissipated like smoke.
A huge palace appeared in front of me.
The palace is made of black metal and exudes a mysterious atmosphere. In the center is a towering door, carved with a strange glowing rune.
As soon as Lin Qing approached, the door opened automatically.
There was silence in the palace, and there was no sound around. The only sound was the slight sound of mechanical rotation behind the wall when the door closed when Lin Qing entered.
The walls, floor, and ceiling inside were covered with runes similar to those of the gate. They seemed to be some kind of writing. She didn't know if it was Lin Qing's hallucination. She always felt that these words were alive, flowing with the energy of life in the light. breath.
The entire palace is like a huge mechanical box. Although there are no furnishings inside, it still exudes a solemn atmosphere.
It is unimaginable that there is such a place hidden under the underground palace full of retro atmosphere.
The technology here is obviously higher than Lin Qing's cognition.
Could this be the product of the mysterious force behind the mission center that controls the end of the world?
[Welcome, taskmaster Lin Qing. 】A virtual figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
Is it hallucination again?
Lin Qing always felt that the virtual man's smile when he looked at her was inexplicably kind and flattering?
[Due to your outstanding performance in the task, you will receive a lucky draw opportunity for a large gift package. Please turn the dial. 】
The virtual man raised his hand and waved, and a precisely designed digital turntable floated to Lin Qing.
Coming!
Finally waited for this moment!
Space button! Space button! Space button!
"God of Koi, please give me strength!"
"I want to win the space button!"
Lin Qing prayed secretly in her heart and excitedly raised her hand to turn the number dial.
A cold feeling came from her fingertips, and with a flick of her hand, the digital dial began to rotate rapidly.
At the same time, the surrounding walls also began to make the sound of mechanical rotation.
The walls are spinning too!
