Chapter 627: Shelter No. 71
Shelter No. 71 in Hongcheng is located in the wilderness south of Wuyang Town, near the hill beside the Fu River, with a depth of about 1,000 meters.
Strictly speaking, the local geological environment is not suitable for building a deep shelter. But the approval of this sanctuary project was before 2150. At that time, the global situation was very good, space technology was developing rapidly, and people from all over the world joined hands to look forward to the future. No one believed that there would be war. The local government just symbolically started construction near here in order to complete the number of civil air defense projects given by the Pan-Asian Cooperation. It wasn't until 2155 that the local government realized that the shelter plan was not a joke, so it made a last resort to strengthen several face-saving projects. Finally, before 2160, a shelter enough to provide shelter for 10 million people was built in Hongcheng.
On the way to the shelter, you can also see the abandoned maglev train platform.
But at this moment, weeds were overgrown here, thorny vines covered the magnetic rails, and the wild wolf hiding in the dark rubbed its sharp claws and bared its teeth eagerly at the approaching NAC soldiers.
"Is this the hometown of Sun Jiao?" Jiang Chen said casually, looking at the stele corroded by acid rain.
The handwriting of [Refuge No. 71] and [Pan-Asia Cooperation] has been blurred, and the iron houses scattered near the station can vaguely see bullet holes and traces of burning.
"It can be said that, after all, we were born in this refuge." A nostalgic smile appeared on Sun Xiaorou's face, and he reached out and gently stroked the stone tablet.
It's like caressing the tombstone of the dead.
Tombstones of civilization.
"Marshal be careful."
Noticing the wolf lurking in the bushes, Li Wang raised his rifle, and took two steps forward with the two guards beside him, protecting Jiang Chen and Xiao Rou.
"Aw—!"
Seeing that they had been discovered, dozens of wild wolves rushed out screaming and opened their mouths wide.
Several personal guards unhurriedly pulled the trigger and beat the dozens of animals into sieves.
"Good job." Jiang Chen patted Li Wang's shoulder, "Don't forget to remember, you have to call me Captain here."
"Yes!" Li Wang nodded.
"You guys keep guard at the door. We will be able to come out before it gets dark." Jiang Chen glanced at the sky before noon. Then he gave orders to the guards behind him.
Seeing that Jiang Chen planned to leave himself and the others outside.
Li Wang couldn't help showing embarrassment.
"Forgive me, I have to be responsible for your safety."
"What danger can there be in an abandoned refuge, at most there are only a few mutated cockroaches."
"But--"
"Okay, this is an order."
Seeing Jiang Chen's firm attitude. Li Wang reluctantly agreed, and organized soldiers to drive the infantry vehicle to the door. A temporary bunker was placed at the entrance of the refuge, and an agreement was made with Jiang Chen that if he did not come up before 6 pm. Just bring people down to support.
The reason why he didn't take people down was not because of his conceit of strength. But out of consideration of the factor of confidentiality.
The secret of eternal life is destined to be held in the hands of only a few people.
...
Fortunately, the elevator leading to the ground is still working.
About half a minute. The elevator stopped at the ground, and Jiang Chen saw the gate of No. 71 shelter.
Every shelter is designed differently. But the general structure is still similar.
The gear-shaped refuge door was open, judging from the thick dust on the ground, it was obviously abandoned for a long time. The body lying against the door was wearing a blue uniform. Judging from the blood on the chest, he should have been shot.
"The raider's attack was sudden, and the director ordered the security to fight back, but the man-made fire threw everything into chaos. My sister ran outside, and while wandering around the ruins, she met a female soldier who called herself PLA... these things should my sister I told you."
"That's right." Jiang Chen nodded.
The "retroists" in the Huaxia District pride themselves on the former banner, strictly demand themselves with glory and virtue, and try to reproduce that great country in history on the ruins. But until now, Jiang Chen still hasn't seen them.
"how about you?"
Sun Xiaorou shook her head.
"After all, it was a long time ago, and the memory in my mind is already very blurred. I just vaguely remember... Later, people from the Twilight Church adopted me."
"If it's a sad memory, don't think about it." Jiang Chen said softly.
"Brother-in-law is really gentle." Xiaorou smiled, "I really envy my sister, who can meet you first."
"Okay, ready to go." Jiang Chen coughed embarrassingly, pulled the bolt of the gun, and walked into the shelter first.
With her index finger habitually placed on her lips, the corners of Sun Xiaorou's mouth curved happily, and she immediately lowered the graphene goggles on her helmet and followed.
The shelter was pitch black, with no basic lighting. The fusion fuel rods had been exhausted long ago, and the two could only take refuge in the inner space with the headlights on their helmets.
"The layout is similar to that of Shelter 27." Jiang Chen casually picked up a diary and shook the dust off it.
[The last news, it seems that we have blown Americans back to the barbaric era. Unfortunately, so do we]
Putting the diary on the table next to him, Jiang Chen continued to explore with the rifle in his hand.
"Squeak—!"
The ear-piercing sound passed through the shadows, Jiang Chen suddenly turned his gun and locked the shadows, and several fat mice crazily got into the corner.
"It's a mutated mouse. If they weren't hungry, they wouldn't normally attack a living person." Sun Xiaorou said.
"It's better to be careful." Jiang Chen sighed, and turned on the life signal detection device on the helmet, "When the crab grows bigger, it will eat people."
Although it's been a long time, after all, she has lived here for a long time, and Sun Xiaorou still has some memories of the terrain of the shelter.
Because there was no electricity, the elevator in the shelter was naturally unable to operate, and the two chose the stairs for the safe passage.
Unknown dangers lurk in the dark corners, but the two were lucky that they did not encounter any more dangerous mutant creatures except for a mutant spider the size of a calf.
Polyethylene armor is still too strong for the spider's fangs. The huge mouth that suddenly struck from the darkness only startled Jiang Chen, and the unlucky spider was decapitated by Sun Xiaorou's dagger. After removing the mucus on his arm, he only found a series of shallow tooth marks on the armor of his left arm.
In order to prevent accidents, when passing by the spider web, Jiang Chen crushed all the spider eggs.
Finally, the two arrived at the bottom of the shelter and stood in front of the office of the director of the shelter.
Everything about this refuge is recorded here.
As the brain of the entire shelter, the power system here is completely independent from the outside world, powered by a separate battery.
"Actually, I have always wondered why the password is in the hands of the federal people, and why a small congressman got it. So that their... well, the president had to send someone to get rid of him." The terminal at the door keyed in the password Ji Yucheng gave him, Jiang Chen said.
"And the federal president who knows the password has not come here for a long time." Sun Xiaorou pondered.
"Is it because I don't know the location of Vault 71?"
"Not like." Sun Xiaorou shook her head.
The moment the door of the director's office opened, the lights on the wall suddenly brightened, dispelling the darkness in the refuge.
At the same time, the soft female voice rang in the ears of the two of them.
"Welcome to the shelter technology, the shelter system will serve you wholeheartedly."
"What's the situation!" Jiang Chen immediately pulled out his rifle and pointed around vigilantly.
"The power system has been restarted? This is impossible, this shelter should have been out of power a long time ago..." Looking at the small TV on the wall, Sun Xiaorou muttered to herself. (To be continued.) To find this site, please search for "" or enter the URL:
