life copy game.

He Ao looked at the opened gate, perhaps because it had been deformed, the gate was not fully opened, but only half opened.

Three men in fur clothes were leaning behind the door, looking at He Ao and He Ao with surprise, bewilderment, and a little fear.

And when they were looking at He Ao, He Ao was also looking at them.

All three of them have obvious features of Newland city-state people in appearance.

What didn't match the simple fur clothing on them was that all three of them were holding a weapon similar to a Gauss rifle, which was obviously something that the science and technology of the main world could not produce.

The characteristics of modern people, the costumes of primitive people, and the weapons of future people.

Such a somewhat weird and magical combination, placed here, seems to have a surprising rationality.

Moreover, the man in the lead exuded the aura of an unstable transcendent.

"Hello, which city are you from?"

The leading man looked at He Ao and Fei Ya, and asked respectfully in Tia language.

Fei Ya looked up at He Ao.

"Before we came in, we were in the city-state of Newland."

He Ao replied slowly, and then he glanced behind the man, behind the half-opened and deformed gate, there were one or two vague figures looking out.

Then he looked down at the monster's corpse on the ground again, and asked, "Can you tell us what happened here?"

"This may sound complicated,"

Hearing He Ao's reply to the word 'Newland City State', the wrinkled expression on the man's face obviously relaxed a lot. He hesitated for a moment, looked around the dark corridor, "Come in with me and talk."

As he spoke, he and the two people behind him stepped aside, signaling He Ao to enter the gate.

He Ao and Fei Ya looked at each other.

Then He Ao was in the front, and Fei Ya was in the back. The two entered the gate with vigilance one after the other.

After entering the gate, the first thing they saw was a slightly open hall.

Many overhead lights are hung on the top of the hall in turn. Although nearly half of these overhead lights have been extinguished, the remaining lights still bring enough bright lighting to the hall.

In front of the hall, near the gate are a pair of metal chairs that seem to be used for rest. At this moment, a man wearing a denim jacket with an injured arm is sitting on the metal chair closest to the gate, and another person who looks like a nurse His wound is being treated.

And the open area of ​​the hall is only covered by these metal chairs.

Behind these metal chairs, there are 'one room' huts separated by various metal and iron partitions.

Pairs of eyes poked out from behind the iron sheet, watching the two people who entered the gate with caution, curiosity, and a little fear and awe.

click -

The leading man pulled down a ring on the side of the gate, and behind him came the sound of the gate slowly closing.

He Ao glanced at the pull ring. Beside the pull ring was a small screen showing the scene outside the door.

It seemed that these people had been hiding behind the door just now, watching the scene outside the door change.

The fear, vigilance and awe in their eyes, as well as the respectful attitude of the leading man, are probably due to seeing He Ao's output on the screen just now.

"There are so many people here?"

It was Fei Ya who broke the silence first. She looked into the eyes in the hall, "You all came in today?"

"today?"

The leading man stood not far from He Ao, shaking his head, "The first of us who came in has been here for almost a year."

"what?"

Even Fei Ya, who had been calm and calm all the time, was slightly confused.

And He Ao just glanced at the cheek of the leading man, and asked softly, "Your name is Karin?"

"you know me?"

The leading man was taken aback.

"I've read your information," He Ao said calmly, "The first batch of missing persons in Newland city-state disappeared on Vinland Island a year ago. They used to be informants of the research institute."

"Institute..."

Hearing He Ao's words, Carlin was stunned for a moment, and then sighed with emotion. His original vigilance and fear were virtually dispelled by He Ao's words, "You are from the research institute, it has been a long time I have lived here for a long time, and I seem to have almost forgotten these things."

Fei Ya turned her head to look at He Ao in a daze, blinking her eyes.

Obviously the Newland city-state is the territory of Moonlight, but why is she, the person in charge of Moonlight, acting like an outsider who doesn't know anything.

He Ao glanced at her and reminded softly, "The missing case."

Fiya reacted in an instant, and then she was a little dazed, "Aren't those disappearances all caused by West?"

"Most of them may have been done by West, but West can mainly target extraordinary people. It is impossible for ordinary people to catch them himself. Most of them are handed over to his subordinates, and these ordinary people are the main subjects of the disappearance,"

He Ao shook his head, "There were hundreds of cases of disappearances in Newland investigated by the research institute before, and most of them were ordinary people. These ordinary people may not have been 'taken away' by West's men. There is a possibility that there may be actual 'missing persons' in the mix."

After all, the research institute is not an official organization of the city-state of Newland, and cannot obtain detailed information on disappearance cases, so the disappearance cases that can actually be investigated are only the tip of the iceberg.

However, the detailed information about all the disappearances was probably covered up by West, who was in charge of the city-state of Newland at that time.

"You mean," Fei Ya reacted, she looked at He Ao, "the 'door' opened a long time ago?"

"The approach of space may be a gradual process, isn't it?"

Howard nodded slightly.

In fact, he just guessed that there was such a possibility at first, and he was not sure.

Only by seeing these people staying here can we be sure that some of those 'missing people' have passed through the 'gate' and arrived at the underground palace.

The approach of the two worlds is not achieved overnight, but gradually. In the process of approaching, there will naturally be 'doors' opened, but the quantity and quality of these 'doors' may be far inferior to the current fully opened state.

The earliest 'door' may have been opened a year ago.

The behind-the-scenes people put West in front of the stage, which is indeed a wonderful move. It can not only help them confuse the situation, but also help them block the gun.

Without West arresting people everywhere, those who disappeared through the 'door' first would become particularly conspicuous.

However, everything has advantages and disadvantages. If West hadn't stolen the research institute's home, he wouldn't have attracted He Ao.

Of course, when West reached that step, he had no choice.

And the behind-the-scenes pushes West to the front of the stage, not necessarily just to have a shield.

"If you're talking about how we got here,"

Karin, who was standing aside, interjected cautiously, "Almost all of us opened a door, walked in, and got here inexplicably."

"Can you tell us what happened to you here?"

Howe looked at Carlin.

"certainly,"

Carlin nodded slightly, and he led He Ao and Fei Ya to the front row of seats, and said slowly, "Where do you want to start?"

"How about just starting with this 'inhabitation'?"

He Ao glanced at the densely packed metal partitions in the hall that seemed to have been there for some time, "Is this the place you transformed into this?"

"Strictly speaking, no,"

Karin shook his head. He glanced at the metal partitions, "These partitions, including the chair we're sitting on now, were there when we first discovered this place. What we did was just use them."

"That is to say," He Ao looked at those metal partitions, "before you, there were people who 'dwell' here?"

"Yes,"

Karin nodded, "Our guess is the same."

"Then," Fiya asked in a low voice, "When you found this place, did you meet anyone living here?"

Although she knew it was impossible, she still asked the question.

"No,"

Karin shook his head bluntly, "When we found this place, it was already covered with dust, there were some rotten food scattered on the ground, and there were unfinished food scattered on the bed. Material bedding, there are traces of human life everywhere, but there is no 'human' left, and we did not find any remaining bone residues,

"Those who used to live here seem to have left here in a hurry for some reason, and never came back."

"Is it because there is not enough food?"

Fei Ya asked instead.

"I don't know what the situation was then,"

Karin thought, "But I think they should have enough food at that time, at least it shouldn't be so short that everyone has to leave."

"why?"

Fei Ya looked at him suspiciously.

This question made Karin think for a moment, and then he slowly got up, "Follow me."

The two followed his figure through the 'corridor' between those metal partitions.

At this time, He Ao also saw the appearance of the interior of those "rooms" with partitions. A simple metal bed that seemed to be converted from a table filled most of the space in the partition. Futon woven from the fibers of the material.

Most of these compartments are uncovered.

Some thin people stood by the bed, looking carefully at He Ao and Fei Ya.

He Ao's eyes swept over the cheeks of these people, and finally stopped on a couple who looked much stronger, and then looked away.

"How many people do you have here?"

he asked casually.

"76," Carring paused, "this is the number of people who survived."

He didn't know how many people entered this place, but there are only 76 of them alive here.

The footsteps of several people were fast, and they passed through the compartment area in a short time and arrived at the back of the hall.

There are two huge machines five or six meters across.

He Ao glanced at the text on the machine.

As he expected, the instructions on these machines were still marked in five different languages.

He Ao easily found the text in the second area, and knew the names of the two machines.

[Synthetic starch nutrition bar production machine (carbon dioxide fixation type)], [Synthetic meat production machine (de-pollution type)]
At the moment, the red lights of these two machines are on, indicating the lack of consumables such as 'synthetic vitamins', 'minerals', 'packaging degradable plastics' and so on.

"We don't know what the two machines do,"

Karin walked to the machine on the left and pressed the most conspicuous green button on the machine.

boom--

Accompanied by a violent roar, a silver opening in front of the machine opened, and a white stick fell out of the machine.

"This is?"

Fei Ya stared wide-eyed, watching this miraculous scene.

"food,"

Karin took out the stick and opened it gently, revealing the inside which resembles the sweet-scented osmanthus cake. "It's a bit like a pastry made of some kind of rice flour. It's edible. We rely on this for our livelihood."

"How is this done?"

Fei Ya obviously couldn't keep up with the rhythm. She looked at the huge machine in front of her, "Is there food stored in this thing? Can it be stored for so long?"

"do not know,"

Karin shook his head, "The food here has always been sufficient, and so much food can be produced every day, it seems that it will never be exhausted."

"Probably producing food on its own,"

He Ao glanced at the machine and said casually, "For example, the carbon dioxide in the air can be fixed into starch."

When he said this, both of them were stunned at the same time.

It's not that the two of them were opened up by He Ao's point of view. From the blank eyes of the two, He Ao felt that maybe they didn't understand.

He Ao thought for a while, organized his words,

"Plant photosynthesis, strictly speaking, is the process of fixing water and carbon dioxide into organic matter such as glucose and starch. The flour and rice we eat are all 'produced' through photosynthesis.

"This machine may be one of those machines that can get its own ingredients from the air to make flour."

"Oh! So it is!"

Fei Ya clapped her hands, and the taupe pupils under the thin lenses exuded a wise light, "Let's take a look at the machine next to it."

"cough."

Karin coughed. Although he didn't fully understand, he understood the 'metaphor' behind He Ao, and realized that the machine they had been relying on might be a lifeless 'plant'.

At this time, he saw He Ao's eyes also moved to the machine next to him.

So he walked to the machine on the right and introduced, "This machine is different from the one over here. This machine can't produce food by itself, but if we throw in the poisonous meat of those monsters outside, it can produce A 'meat' we can eat."

"Sounds like a machine that removes some kind of harmful substance,"

He Ao glanced at the 'decontamination' note on the machine, then looked at Karin, and continued, "Doesn't this mean that you need to go out to 'hunt' by yourself?"

"Yes."

Karin nodded, and he raised the Gauss gun hanging on his chest, "This is the weapon we picked up in this hall before. Although we don't know the reason, it has a long range and great power."

Immediately afterwards, he sighed, "When we first found this place, there were only a few people who could survive by eating the white rice noodles and occasionally going out to find some prey, but now there are more and more people, especially the latest one. In the month, the rice noodles are not enough, we have to go out to hunt every day."

"Ah."

Howo looked up at the two machines.

With these two machines, there is indeed no shortage of food here, at least there will be no physical shortage that forces everyone to leave.

That gate can also withstand the impact of a C-level peak monster.

So why did those 'remnants' who used to stay here leave here collectively?
Seeing that He Ao seemed to be lost in thought, Karin glanced at Fei Ya beside him, and asked in a low voice, "I don't know your names yet?"

"Fiya."

Fei Ya introduced herself.

"How,"

He Ao lowered his head and introduced himself. Then he looked at Karin's body and asked thoughtfully, "You became a superhuman?"

According to the information of the institute, Karin is just an ordinary person.

"Yes,"

Karin seemed to recall something, and sighed slightly, "When I first arrived here, I hadn't found this hall yet. I was too hungry. I met an injured monster. I ate some of the monster's flesh and blood. I thought He was bound to die, but he unexpectedly survived and possessed some extraordinary powers, but the process was not very good."

It seems that Karin should have eaten the main material of a certain talent sequence in the monster. Compared with the promotion of the secret medicine, this method of directly eating the 'main material' can also be promoted, but the death rate is much higher, and the stable Sex is even worse.

Strictly speaking, Karin is a very capable person with a bottom line.

The 'inhabited area' in front of me already has a little shadow of the tribe of wanderers in the wilderness of the dungeon world. In this dangerous environment everywhere, order and humanity are the most vulnerable to the test.

If another person manages this place, there may not be so many people who can live here.

People who live here may not necessarily be able to stand like people.

"correct,"

After a brief pause, Karin took the initiative to ask, "Did you also come in through the 'door'? Has our 'disappearance' been found outside?"

He paused, and asked the question he'd always wanted to ask, "Is there a way we can go back?"

These words attracted the attention of everyone in the entire 'inhabited area'.

"Now the city-state of Newland is full of open 'doors',"

He Ao thought for a moment, and sorted out his words, "We came here to investigate this matter, and we have to solve the problems behind the scenes before we can go back, and this aspect,"

He paused, looked at Carlin, "We may need your help."

"Is there anything we need to do?!"

Karin straightened up immediately.

"You often hunt nearby, are you familiar with this 'underground palace'?"

Ho asked next.

"Underground Palace? That's a good name. We also guess that the area we are in now is underground,"

Karin thought for a moment, nodded,
"As far as we know, this 'underground palace' has more than one floor. Our main hunting area is on this floor. This seems to be the top and largest floor. We usually call this floor the underground layer.

"The monsters on this level are not strong. With the cooperation of a few of us, we can kill some small monsters. The monsters you killed just now are called 'sheep demons'. They are actually the 'overlords' of this level. We all avoid them, and usually, if they are not injured, they don't seem to attract their attention.

"This time, it was because a newcomer was attacked by a monster before he came in, and then happened to pass by us, and was rescued by us, so he encountered the goat demon."

The newcomer Karin mentioned should be the one He Ao saw when he came in, sitting on the stool by the door with an injured arm.

The place where he entered the underground palace was a little before the place where He Ao entered.

Karin didn't describe this person's affairs in detail, and now too much emphasis on these things will easily cause this newcomer who has caused trouble to be excluded by the old man, so he just mentioned it, and then continued,

"Go along the corridor at the entrance of our settlement, after turning a few corridors, there is an area similar to a commercial area, where you can find some 'medicine', as well as compressed food with packages, the basement is basically our It's all been explored."

He looked at He Ao, "If you want to investigate the truth, you may have to go down a little bit. Next to the commercial area, there are stairs and elevators leading to the second basement.

"But in this place, the monsters are stronger as you go down. There are many big plant-like monsters on the second basement floor, and the monsters that can move are also very strong. I have only been there once, and I almost lost half my life, but your strength Should be easy."

"Are there only two floors here?"

Fei Ya asked on the side.

"No, there are actually three floors underground,"

Karin shook his head, "Go out from the stairs on the second basement floor, walk a few tens of meters ahead, and pass a half-closed gate, you will see a destroyed elevator and a broken stair door, which may lead to There are three basement floors, but I haven’t been there before.”

Then he glanced at the gate, "The destroyed shape of the stairway door on the third floor underground is a bit like the collision of a 'goat demon'. It may be very dangerous there."

"You mean, the Goat Demon might have come up from the third floor?"

Fia added.

"Well," Karin nodded, "That's all for our exploration of the 'Underground Palace'. As for whether there are other places below the third underground floor, we don't know."

"Um,"

He Ao nodded thoughtfully, and looked at Carlin, "Can you please send someone to take us to the stairs from the basement floor to the second floor?"

"Let me take someone to accompany you,"

Carring paused, and quickly said, "We just need to go hunting."

"Okay," He Ao said with a smile, "Then I will trouble you."

Newland city-state Vinland

"Affected by special celestial phenomena, the city-state of Newland has been completely closed at present. Please stay at home and do not go out. Do not open closed doors. Do not close open doors. Please do not open any closed doors easily. Repeat, please Don't open any closed doors lightly..."

A serious female voice came from the radio, the clock on the wall jumped to 15 o'clock, and the gray-haired old man raised his head and glanced out the closed window.

The sky was still dark night.

Today's night seems extraordinarily long.

"grandmother,"

The little girl next to her suddenly called softly. She pulled the old man's clothes and looked straight at the old man. "I think I heard the voices of mom and dad."

"Ok?"

The old man turned his head suspiciously and looked at the little girl.

"They seem to be saying..."

The girl's soft voice sounded slowly in the silent darkness, "Quickly open the door."

A [-]-word super chapter (super courageous), please ask for a ticket.
