Chapter 43 Going Deep Into the Ground

I tried to touch it with my hand, but there was no response, and the ε symbol in the middle did not light up as expected. Tang Fang pushed hard again, but didn't move. Hausen and Aros were not reconciled, they also put their palms together and pushed the door together for a long time. You must know that with the addition of the exoskeleton of the power armor, the strength of one hand is enough to overturn a car, and now the strength of three people cannot shake the door. Apart from the fact that the door is too heavy, there may be another Possibly, the door is locked!

If you think about it carefully, how could a hangar with important aircraft be left unguarded?

"Forget it, don't waste your efforts, this door is locked." Tang Fang pointed to the small rune gate on the east side of the hall: "Go, go there and have a look."

When I was young, I stepped off the lifting platform and came to the rune gate on the east side of the hall. Tang Fang repeated his old trick and put his palm lightly on it. Sure enough, a burst of blue light lit up, the ε symbol in the center of the gate flipped, and the gate rolled back with eddy currents. Generally shrink into the surrounding cracks.

In front of it is a small room, no more than 40 square meters left and right. The first thing that catches the eye is a small lifting platform, and then there are circles of faint blue dots on the walls on both sides, sometimes dotted with some rough star patterns.

Tang Fang stepped into the room, glanced over, and found no electronic equipment similar to the hangar console. He hesitated a little. He took the two to the central platform and pressed the landing button.

With the shock of the foot, as before, the platform quickly slid toward the depths of the ground.

This time the platform descended very fast. Tang Fang and Aros were fine. Due to the additional compensation of the power armor gravity adjustment system, they did not feel any discomfort. His butt was sitting on the ground, his face pale, and he was gasping for breath.

The surrounding blue light circles of thunder and lightning generally fly upward and retreat. According to the readings returned by the analysis equipment, the platform's descending speed is about 180KM/hour, which is close to the speed of the saber-toothed tiger A2 reconnaissance vehicle. In such a high-speed movement state, Tang Fang and Aros have no good way to help him, but fortunately there is an additional gravity balance device at the bottom of the platform, which has always maintained the gravity within a barely acceptable range, which is not too bad for him. Too much burden on the body.

Ten minutes, fifteen minutes, twenty minutes...

The lifting platform has always been moving at a high speed, and there has been no sign of slowing down. Aros frowned more and more tightly. Taking Nami Star's planetary radius of about 700KM, it has now broken through the crust and is heading for the depths of the mantle.

How deep is this lift shaft? Where does it lead to?

Compared to him, Tang Fang's expression is on the contrary very calm. It is not that he is heartless, nor that he is well versed in the way of life, but that he has turned all his attention to the system space. Completely ignore external environmental changes.

1000 crystals, 1340 gas, how to spend?

The ability to upgrade troops? Stimulant? Concussion bomb? Zerg burial?

Or the production of combat units? Supplementary combat power?

After thinking for a long time, Tang Fang decided to put down the Protoss barracks building (portal) first. After all, the single combat capability of the Zealot (fork) is much higher than the primary arms of the Zerg and the Terran.

Zealots, the basic combat unit of the Protoss, can wield the energy sword on their arms for melee attacks. Like other Protoss units, they are covered with a light blue plasma shield, which can effectively resist the enemy's attack. In addition to strong fighting skills,

They also have the "charge" skill, which can be transformed into an energy form in a short period of time, quickly approaching the opponent, and achieving the purpose of tactically dividing and encircling the target unit.

The cost of the Zealot is 100 crystals, 2 population, and the "Charge" skill needs to be upgraded in the Council of Light and Shadow.

The building of the Protoss must be built within the ray coverage of the crystal tower. To build the portal, the crystal tower must be put down first, and 250 crystals are required for each visit.

Endured the pain and manipulated the probe (God tribe peasant) to click on a crystal tower, and then put down the portal. Seeing that the crystal value became 750, Tang Fang couldn't help sighing, "Mama Mia!" Now the gas is still good, but the crystal is in short supply.

What made him even more scolded was why the Light and Shadow Council was unlocked together with the portal, not the core control. If it was the latter, then he would be able to produce two more troops---the hunter and Mechanical Sentinels.

The Mechanical Sentinel is a magical arm, comparable to the all-rounder of the Queen of Worms, while the Stalker is an all-around ground-air combat unit, and its attack is higher than that of the Terran Machine Gunmen, which can greatly improve the combat strength of the three-ethnic mixed army.

After hesitating for a while, I thought that the Charger skill in the game would cost 200 crystals and 200 gas. Converted to the system, it would be 2000 crystals and 2000 gas. With his current resource deposits, he could only stare blankly when he built the Light and Shadow Council. It was useless, so he decided not to build it for the time being and kept the money for future use.

"Tang Fang, Tang Fang."

Aros' shout woke him up. When he looked back, he saw that the other party was looking at him with a solemn expression: "Now we have penetrated more than 200 kilometers underground, but there is still no sign of the lifting platform stopping."

"More than 200 kilometers?" Tang Fang was shocked when he heard the words, and his face also became a little embarrassed. He thought that this ruin was only used to park aerospace vehicles, but he did not expect it to go straight to the ground.

"Why don't we go up?" Hausen's face turned pale, and after an hour of getting used to it, he was finally able to barely stand up. But from Tang Fang's point of view, this guy seems to have never had a PIAO experience with CHANG in his eight lifetimes.

"Wait, if it doesn't stop after an hour, we'll go back the same way."

"Okay." The two nodded, feeling a little at ease.

After another 40 minutes, just when Tang Fang was hesitating whether to retreat, a momentum surged up under his feet, and the lifting platform began a slow deceleration process.

"It looks like it's coming to an end." The voice finally fell, and with a light sound and a slight vibration, the lifting platform finally stopped.

This is a hall covering an area of ​​100 square meters, which is different from the darkness above. The oval pearls inlaid on the ceiling illuminate the whole room as if it were daylight.

There are still some simple and rough patterns on the surrounding circular walls, without aesthetic feeling, and in front of the landing point of the lifting platform is a "flower garden" with rippling water waves.

Tang Fang felt that it was too inappropriate to describe it as a pond. If there is water and fish, it is understandable to call a pond, but the scene in front of him completely overturned his perception. There are four or five crystal flowers floating on the light blue water waves, and the colorful rays of light are refracted by the petals of the crystal flowers into the air, interweaving into a mysterious and magnificent three-dimensional star map.
