Chapter 929

Chapter 929 Three Hundred Years Underground, Flat Beach Shelter!

Each pre-war era started construction and was eventually preserved as an underground fortress that can still be used after the war.

Basically, they all applied the most advanced architectural concept technology and high-strength applied materials of that era.

Whether it is the impact and shock of frontal nuclear warheads or frequent earthquakes caused by crustal movement, they have always perfectly survived difficult environmental tests time after time.

Of course, there used to be many people who kept heavy weapons. After the war, they wanted to negotiate and move in with the idea of ​​"the neighbor's home is my home" more than once, but in the end they were all blocked out by the solid underground defense circle. decades.

Some people calculated based on the strength of the materials used to build the bunkers at that time. According to the lifespan, these fortresses can last at least 500 years on the blue star. Even if there are some accidents during this period, it can guarantee that human civilization will return to the ground next time.

But the reality is cruel, only two hundred and seventy-two years, less than three hundred years.

More and more underground fortresses began to withdraw from the stage of history and came to the end of their lives.

What ended them was not that the external materials had reached their limits, but that

creak.

The thick door of the shelter opened, Liu Lu's thoughts were pulled back, and he stepped into it.

The entrance is a room with an area of ​​about 50 square meters, with two exoskeleton guards sitting in the corner.

From top to bottom, a weak airflow brought water mist down, doing the most basic disinfection.

After the disinfection was completed and nodded with the two guards, Liu Lu stepped inside.

Behind the second gate is a long defensive corridor, about forty meters long.

On weekdays, there are no roadblocks in the corridor.

But as long as the administrator of the fortress presses the emergency button, a gate made of superalloy material will drop every five meters, blocking all foreign invaders from the real core area.

Walking to the end of the corridor, Liu Lu tidied up his clothes, looking back and forth at the cameras on both sides.

boom.

The heavy blocking door began to lift, and vague and chaotic sounds began to come from inside.

After entering, there is a platform space in the early 100s.

Among them, a black hole with a diameter of five meters was lying on the ground, and the sound came from it.

Liu Lu stepped in, leaned slightly, and slid down the side of the cave.

This is a slide entry design similar to a slide.

When there is no danger on weekdays, the slide is very well maintained, and the smoothness is almost imperceptible.

But if an enemy is detected, sharp alloy cutting blades will protrude from both sides of the slide. Even if you are wearing an exoskeleton, you can't escape being twisted into pieces in a few seconds.

bark.

The noise grew louder.

When the mottled light began to appear in the slide, the corner was turned, and the eyes finally suddenly opened up!

It was a bare cushioned platform.

"Hey, Captain Liu is back so soon, it seems that someone from the harbor is here?"

At the end of the slide, just as Liu Lu had just fallen, someone helped him up precisely.

Liu Lu narrowed his eyes until the strong light inside was no longer so exciting, then nodded slightly and said: "They are here, I'm going to report to the manager."

"Okay, you don't need to register, I will do the rest."

The person guarding the end of the chute seemed to be very familiar with Liu Lv, and they chose to let go after talking for a few words.

Continue to walk along the corridor where the small platform link is bright.

Inexplicable whispers, footsteps of pedestrians, sizzle of electricity, humming from time to time, more and more voices began to become clear.

Someone once speculated that the burrow where the gopher guy lived was just a combination of narrow rooms, and he lived in it like a tomb until he died.

Some people also speculate that they are just like gophers, with a nest in the east and a nest in the west, but they are linked together by passages.

But no one ever guessed.

Viewed from perspective, the entire Flat Beach Shelter is like a hollowed-out cylinder.

A huge revolving escalator is being built in the center of the inner core, starting from the top and extending downwards until it reaches the bottom layer of nearly 100 meters.

Along the inner core for a week, a series of scratches were opened at an interval of 3.8 meters, forming a series of independent parallel spaces underground.

These parallel spaces, each floor, are independent living floors.

With independent access to the ground, there are also complete residential buildings, service facilities, public departments, vending shops, and entertainment venues.

Except for the floor chief and deputy floor chief, and some people with special certificates, they can go to other floors through the escalator in the middle.

For more than two hundred years, batch after batch of familiar faces have been sent away here, and brand new faces have been welcomed here one after another.

Many people were born here and died here.

Under the control of the great manager, he lived a life almost isolated from the world.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Walking out of the corridor, Liu Lu bumped into a man who was hurrying to the left with a toolbox.

The two collided, the man was slightly weaker and sat on the ground.

But when he raised his head and saw the person he bumped into, there was a trace of complaint on his face:

"Captain Liu, the water supply pipe in our B-7-2 area exploded again. Last time you said that a new replacement would be found soon. How long has it been? If we continue to repair it, it may lead to our entire evacuation There is a problem with the water supply system in all places!"

"What's the hurry, am I looking for it?"

Liu Lu muttered something, a trace of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes.

He looked at the area the man said, and it was indeed surrounded, with a sign under repair.

If it were changed to a hundred years ago, such a situation might still be new.

But now, this is simply normal. There will be various infrastructure problems on almost every floor of the flat beach shelter.

It is a trivial matter for maintenance and repair to be usable, but it is a major matter if it is so serious that it needs to be damaged and must be replaced.

"Each floor of our shelter is managed independently and is responsible for its own profits and losses. The standard of living depends entirely on the people who live on this floor to find a way. Captain Liu, you have the capital and strength to pat your ass and continue to live on other floors, but this B -No one else on the 7th floor has this money, if the delay is prolonged, these people will have more and more opinions."

"Our maintenance team has been helping you, the deputy floor chief, for a long time. If you can't find the materials, and the lord blames you for directly cutting off the basic supply of our floor, no one can bear the responsibility, right?"

"I said, Lao Lu, you're threatening me, you're quite courageous." Liu Lu sneered, and wanted to walk away in disdain.

However, before he could take a full step, the man named Lao Lu said something that made him stand still in embarrassment.

"Captain Liu, the last time I went to B-6 and B-5 to restore the power supply with the optical cable, it was all done by the brothers. If you think this is our responsibility, then you can go boldly."

On the word "borrow", Lao Lu emphasized his tone, and the meaning is self-evident.

Liu Lu's face twitched, but he finally suppressed the rising anger.

He turned his head and forced a smile that was uglier than crying: "Old Lu, didn't I promise you to find a way? Give me some more time, and I will find replacement materials as soon as possible."

"Okay, then I'll try to persuade the brothers and let them trust you and the stratum for a longer period of time."

Lao Lu stood up, patted the ashes off his body, and left.

But after being teased by him like this, Liu Lu's mood became even worse.

Stepping into the escalator leading to the B-21 management floor, looking at the various living beings on each floor in the process of descending, he could only pray silently in his heart.

The manager didn't want Lao Lu to be so talkative, so he just let it go.

In Flat Beach Shelter, except for the management, the other 20 floors have different tasks.

There are those who are responsible for finding and trading materials that can be used to generate energy for the shelter.

Some are responsible for repairing the overall external damage of the shelter.

There is also an entire floor that is being trained, dedicated to foreign wars.

From top to bottom, the lower the number of floors, the easier the task, and the less the required task quota.

For example, the amount of living materials that need to be submitted on the B-1 floor every month is as much as 150% of the B-7 floor. If it is not completed, it will be kicked out of the shelter.

The task on the B-13 floor is 70% of that on the B-7 floor, and if the task is overfulfilled, the administrator will be rewarded.

Since taking office as the floor chief of the B-7 floor, he boarded the harbor shelter and could conduct regular and quantitative transactions.

It has been a long time since people living on this floor were forced to go to the ground to conduct a carpet search in large numbers because they could not fulfill the material requirements, and paid a heavy price to complete the requirements.

But this time, after seeing the outrageous price, Liu Lu had almost guessed the result.

The manager will 100% not agree to such an outrageous request, and pay a large amount of business coupons to buy materials for the harbor shelter.

The big trouble that hasn't been encountered on the B-7 floor for more than ten years is probably coming!

"Liu Lu, the deputy chief of the B-7 floor, and the captain of the Seventh Team of the Pingtan Defense Force, has successfully verified his identity."

"Please answer the reason for meeting the manager."

Unknowingly, I went down to the bottom.

Hearing the guard's inquiry from the front, Liu Lu suddenly reacted and said quickly: "I'm looking for the manager, the harbor refuge has brought important news!"

"Harbour shelter?"

The armed guard frowned, went to the desk and chair, picked up the tablet, and looked at the previous schedule.

At this time of the month, it happens to be the time when the B-7 floor and the harbor shelter are traded.

Today is much later than usual.

"Come in, old rules, undress, keep all weapons."

The guard blocking the exit stepped aside, and Liu Lu hurriedly took off his clothes one by one.

It wasn't until he was completely off that he changed into the green thermal suit handed over by the guard.

"This material is so damn comfortable."

Although it was not the first time to wear this thing, Liu Lu still couldn't help but secretly sighed.

Each shelter has a different "specialty".

The most famous thing in the Pingtan Refuge is this one-piece thermal suit.

It can control the body temperature in the comfortable zone, resist the severe cold of minus 30 degrees, and the heat of minus 40 degrees, and always keep the wearer from the influence of the external environment.

It is rumored that two hundred years ago, the output of this thing could be enough for every person in the shelter to have one, and if it was damaged, it would be recycled and replaced with a new one.

But as time went by and the raw materials became less and less, only those with noble status in the Pingtan shelter could be rewarded by the administrator to wear them.

"Very well, let's go in."

"Be careful, don't look at what you shouldn't, otherwise you will be responsible for something."

The guard drove a four-seater flatbed car from the side, and Liu Lu quickly lowered his head and sat down on the seat, and took the initiative to put on the blindfold next to him.

The vehicle started and stopped slowly after about ten minutes.

Zilazila, the faint noise of the walkie-talkie rang.

"Master, Liu Lu, the deputy chief of B-7, said that he has important news to report to the manager."

"The manager just woke up, let him come in and wait."

"OK."

Wow.

The sound of the door opening sounded, the guard took off his blindfold, and Liu Lu hurried forward with his head down.

On the shiny metal ground, there is a blue arrow constantly beating.

Follow the arrow inward until it stops.

Liu Lu still lowered his head, kneeling on the ground with unconcealable panic.

Not long after, a heavy breathing sounded in front of him.

"Come on, what's the big news?"

"My lord, the Harbor Refuge has turned its back on its promise. Even if it pays liquidated damages, it will cancel the original contract with our B-7 floor and sign a new supply contract.

At the same time, they drastically increased the prices of the goods on the new supply list, which was more than ten times higher than before. "

"ten times?"

The sound of breathing became more intense.

The man as strong as a tiger sat upright from the wide chair, his relaxed explosive muscles tensed slightly, and blood vessels visible to the naked eye emerged on his arms.

His skin exudes a red color different from that of ordinary people, as if he just soaked in a hot spring.

His name is "Pingtan", and the manager of this Pingtan Refuge sounds gentle and elegant.

But in fact, he was not called Ping Tan before.

In the huge Qinggang City, he has a name that is notorious.

"Tiger Hunting".

Whenever the prey he targets, no matter where he flees, he will find it with his fierce "sense of smell" and tear it apart piece by piece.

Even if the opponent's strength is higher, he still has the patience of a feline, waiting until the opponent is weak to launch a fatal blow.

Many people had speculated that with his character, even if he became a manager, he would not change his name to Pingtan according to the rules of the refuge, and live a life of inviolability from the world.

But everyone was wrong in the end, Liehu gave up his reputation very quickly.

In order to better manage Flat Beach Refuge, so that everyone will no longer be afraid to hear his name.

Just like when hunting prey, in order to achieve his goals, he never hesitates to do anything.

Until more than ten years later, only a small number of people were left with tiger hunting.

When questioned by him, Liu Lu, who was kneeling on one knee, did not dare to raise his head, and whispered in a low voice.

"It's more than ten times, and some things have even increased in price by twenty times, which is simply outrageous. The subordinates don't know if the other party is interested, and the leading Captain Jialu accidentally showed me the supply list of the Jucheng Refuge. Even with the price increase, they are ordering more supplies than they already have."

"My subordinates suspect that it is the combination of Jucheng Sanctuary and Harbor Sanctuary that wants to cheat us?"

"Hit us? They don't have the courage."

Hearing Liu Lu's suspicion, Ping Tan's face showed a domineering look, and he couldn't help but squeeze the iron ball in his hand.

In Qinggang City, the scale and power of Flat Beach Shelter ranks third.

The Jucheng Refuge is ranked ninth, and if they want to be tricked, they won't hit their heads.

"What else did he say?"

"Captain Garu said that there is an important piece of information that he wants to sell, which is related to the reason for the increase in the price of goods this time and the changes in Qinggang City."
