Chapter 543: Fell Into a Trap

The armed robots on the lower floors of the office area did not have any interception effect and were quickly killed. Surprisingly, the remaining floors were empty and no one was arranged to defend them. Then we advanced smoothly. We arrived at the top floor of the office area.

This place is the highest point of the office area. In fact, it is no different from the lower floors. It is just that the rooms are divided into compartments, unlike the large passage below. However, one thing that is better here than below is that the rooms here are very clean and tidy. Because they have not been damaged, the electricity is working normally. Of course, this also means that those monitors can clearly see our status.

Originally, I thought that we would be intercepted by the other party in the last office area above, but the other party's arrangement was slightly different from what I imagined, because we did not encounter any resistance here and found it directly. Stairs leaving the office area.

According to the standard building configuration in the United States, the bottom is the commercial activity area, the middle is the office area, and the top is the residential area. When we passed through the office area, we entered the residential area.

The situation is different in residential areas and office areas. The structure here looks a bit like the structure in a hotel, but it is not as densely packed with rooms next to each other like in a hotel. This type of residence located on the top floor of a building is usually a large villa in the building. Although each unit is located inside the building, its internal space is not much different from that of an independent villa. In addition, because each house is a duplex structure, there is only one aisle every two floors, but this does not have much impact on us because we have no intention of entering the corridor at all.

The buildings here are designed according to regular buildings, and the building is not a maze. Of course, you don't need to walk through every passage below to get to the upper floors. Just go up the stairwell. As for the elevator... let's forget about that thing. We are conducting an irregular exercise. If we go in, the other party will just throw a bunch of cluster grenades into the elevator shaft from the floor above and we can just admit defeat. Although cluster grenades are useless to us, there is definitely no problem in blowing up the elevator, and this place is already fifty stories above. If we fall from such a height without using wings to slow down, it will be dangerous even for us. But we can't open our wings in the elevator, so the elevator is very dangerous for us.

After we entered the residential area, we started rushing up the stairwell without entering the passage on the first floor. According to the fire map we got before, all the way up from here is the exit from this scene, and as long as we pass it, it will be clear. We passed another level.

We originally thought that this process would be smoother, but soon we understood why the other party did not leave anyone to garrison here. The reason is right in front of us.

This is a pile of steel and rubble lying in front of us. These guys actually blew up the stairs in the stairwell. All the stairs on the upper floor fell down and got stuck on this floor, forming a pile of construction debris that was three stories thick. It would be very difficult to get through here.

In fact, it was a bit shameful for the other party to do this, because it is impossible for the stairs to be blown down individually in a real building, unless you blow up the entire building together. Because ordinary buildings are piled up. The stair steps and the outer stairwell wall are integral. The two are bonded together with reinforced concrete, which is not easy to remove. However, this building is a simulation training base. It is a space dug out of the ground. In other words, this vertical stairwell is actually a vertical well dug out of the mountain, and then holes are manually drilled into the wall. Then insert steel supports, lay barbed wire on top of the supports, lay plywood on them, and then use cement to shape the steps.

This construction method is obviously different from the construction method of regular buildings, because the steps and walls are not integrated. Instead, it only relies on a small amount of steel bars to fix it, so as long as these few supporting points are blown up, the entire staircase can collapse. However, in ordinary buildings, it is not that easy to blow down the stairs.

In any case, the stairwell in front of us is unusable, and now we have to find another way. If it were an ordinary building, I think I could climb up from the outside, or simply fly up, but this "building" has no so-called "outside" at all, so this place can only find solutions from inside the building.

"Go back and let's see if we can get through the ceiling."

We quickly retreated to the nearby corridor. There were only eight doors in this not-so-long corridor, representing eight houses respectively. We don’t want to buy a house, so of course we don’t need to pick and choose. We just go up and kick open the nearest door, and then enter the interior of this room.

After entering the room, we did not go deep. We jumped directly from the split-level living room to the corridor on the upper floor. Then we used electromagnetic induction to sense the thickness of the ceiling above our heads, and then we jumped up and punched the ceiling.

In fact, it would have been faster to shoot with a gun, but our weapons were filled with paint bullets, and we couldn't expect them to damage the floor, so we had to switch to fists. Fortunately, this hardness doesn't have much impact on us. A few punches punched a big hole in the ceiling, and then we used a dagger to cut the steel bars inside and bend them. We soon made a big hole that could be crawled through.

After making the big hole, Yeyue was the first to come to the entrance. Then she straightened her tail slightly, and her upper body naturally gradually rose up through the big hole and entered the room on the upper floor. After her upper body was all over, her tail bent toward the edge outside the gap to find a support point, and then her lower body moved up directly with it.

After Yeyue went up, she did not completely move her body away, but left the last piece of her tail underneath. I walked over and patted her tail, and Yeyue immediately pulled me up with her tail.

After I went up, Yeyue moved to the corridor on the upper floor with me, and then started digging holes again, while the people below were climbing up one by one.

The ceiling of the floor above was of course made of the same material, so a new large hole was quickly opened. After we opened the hole here, Yeyue still went through first, while the others below were still a few floors below and hadn't fully come up yet. After all, there is only one entrance to the cave, and you need to queue up to get in, and the speed at which we can open the cave is obviously much faster than the speed through which we can pass.

After reaching the upper level again, Yeyue and I separated. Let Yeyue continue to drill holes upwards. I myself went out to the building to have a look.

The gap above can be seen at the top of the stairwell door on this floor, but there are still some rubbles lying there. I think it would be faster to drill holes upward from the original place.

When I returned to the room, Yeyue had already penetrated the passage on the upper floor and entered the upper floor. Ling had just come up from below and was now waiting for Yeyue to pull her up at the entrance of the cave under Yeyue.

When I walked over, Ling had already been dragged up by Yeyue, and Jingjing had just climbed up from the cave entrance below. But, at this time. But we suddenly heard a loud bang from the floor above, and the hole where Yeyue and the others had just gone up instantly spurted out a ball of flames. Jingjing and I instinctively covered our faces with our hands and backed away. Two steps. Fortunately, the flames were mainly upward, and not much came down from the hole.

Although they were not burned by the flames, the explosion meant that Yeyue and the others were ambushed. I rushed to the entrance of the cave without saying a word, kicked off the ground and jumped up without even thinking about it. However, as soon as I came out of the entrance of the cave, I felt something rushing towards me in front of me.

"Damn it!" I didn't understand why we were attacked until we entered this floor. Because there are a large number of special particles floating in the room on this floor. This kind of particle is a common particle in the laboratory. They are mainly caused by static electricity generated by high-voltage electrical appliances. This particle is not stable and will appear after being excited by high-voltage current. Then as soon as the electric field disappears, it will automatically and gradually merge into the air to form a common air magazine without any residue.

Precisely because the particles themselves are harmless. And it's useless, so usually no one cares about this kind of thing. However, we actually know that this thing is not really useless. It actually has a very special ability. That is - reduce the resistance of the air.

The resistance of air is very high, which is why you won't get an electric shock if you stand next to an exposed wire as long as you don't touch it. Because air has a high resistance, no current will form between you and the wire. However, the presence of this particle can carry electrons around, so it lowers the resistance of the air. However, this reduction is very small, so there is generally no need to take special protective measures against this phenomenon.

However, not long ago, someone discovered that the effect of such particles in reducing air resistivity can produce another effect-electromagnetic wave absorption.

The air resistance after the resistivity is reduced is still very high, and it will not become a conductive substance. However, the air containing a large amount of these particles will absorb a large amount of electromagnetic waves, resulting in a decrease in radio transmission signals in this area, and radar waves will also absorbed.

If the particles weren't unstable and unable to solidify on the metal surface, this would actually be a very good radar stealth material. However, this thing is unstable, and it is a free particle that cannot be restrained. Naturally, there is no way for the aircraft to be protected by this thing. However, although there is no way to use this kind of thing to shield radar on an aircraft in the air, this does not mean that it cannot be used in a confined space.

The method used by the other party was to fill the room with such particles, so the room became an electromagnetic black hole. Our electromagnetic induction ability completely failed here, so we did not sense the ambush here. Otherwise, we should be able to spot these people through the floor.

In fact, there is another reason why these people succeeded, and that is the dust in the air and the power armor on their bodies.

Our dragon race is not only powerful in electromagnetic induction. In fact, our five senses are much stronger than humans, so we can usually find the enemy's hiding place in some inconspicuous places. However, because they had previously blown up the stairs in the stairwell, there was a lot of cement dust in the air. Moreover, we just dug holes there, and drilling through the floor would also cause a lot of dust, so we had already switched the helmet visor to the internal circulation mode in advance. In this mode, our powered armor is similar to a space suit and does not exchange gas with the outside world, so naturally we do not smell the smell of the people ambush above. Otherwise, with our noses, we would never be able to smell the smell of these people.

In addition, sound is also a very sensitive place for us. Not to mention those louder sounds, we can accurately hear even the sounds of people's breathing and heart beating. Therefore, unless the environment itself is relatively noisy, it will be difficult for people hiding in the dark to escape our pursuit, because their heartbeats are the best beacons. The more panicked those people are, with rapid breathing and rapid heartbeat, the more likely they will be discovered by us.

However, these people here are all elites. The limited personnel are all wearing power armor, and the rest are all armed robots. These powered armors and armed robots will not produce any sound as long as they do not move in silent mode. As for the heartbeats of those soldiers, we cannot hear them at all under the barrier of the powered armor. No matter how good our ears are, we still need sound to be able to hear! Their power armor is so thick, and through multiple layers of composite materials, we can't hear just the sound of a human heart beating.

Because of these conditions, we were finally ambushed by the opponent this time. Moreover, these guys have a really good idea. They actually thought of blowing up the steps and forcing us to dig holes to come up. Moreover, they seemed to be fine with it. Because if we dig holes to come up, the team will definitely become a long snake formation. They don't have to face all of us at the same time, they only need to deal with one or two targets at a time. This is really a good idea.

In fact, there are ambushes not only on the upper level, but also on the lower levels. Just when I jumped up, there were two explosions of different sizes below. Apparently there were people on the lower floors. I estimate that the other party was lurking in a room closer to the corridor. Because we wanted to save trouble, we would definitely not go in, so they just found a room deep in the corridor and sprayed those particles to block electromagnetic signals. All that's left is to wait for us to fall into the trap and then fight out to take revenge.

Sure enough, we still underestimated these people. After all, they are all elites and can come up with such methods. However, even if they now divide us into several floors, and each floor is heavily pressed with troops, it is of no use, because we are dragons and are not easy to defeat. (To be continued ~^~)
