Chapter 2256 Disposal

What is architecture?

The artificial environment that can meet the needs of life is architecture.

Those upside-down semicircular metal hemispheres are not beautiful, nor can they be used as watchtowers, nor can they hide their figures. If there is nothing valuable inside, they will just be a few obstacles.

Not really a building at all.

But since Giselle calls these semicircular hills buildings, it means that there must be something inside them, but we didn't find the right way.

But how to find this door is a big problem.

Is it a bit difficult for those of us who come after hundreds of millions of years to solve a problem that even the descendants of the Celestial Tribe five hundred years from now cannot solve?

I squatted on the ground in distress, staring at the metal floor in a daze.

At this moment, a strange sound sounded, and then, a dazzling light, like a strong wind, instantly enveloped the entire research base.

The next second, the roar of machinery sounded, and the steel jungle that had been idle for hundreds of millions of years began to operate normally again.

The huge mechanical arm is constantly expanding and contracting, and the hydraulic press is constantly operating on the chopping board, squeezing the air. There are also various machines with indescribable names and functions that are constantly operating.

I stood up abruptly and looked around in surprise. After being stunned for a moment, I suddenly came back to my senses and looked around blankly, looking for Kailan's figure.

"I'm here!"

A familiar voice came from the upper right. Looking up, Kailan was leaning on the iron railing, smiling and waving to me.

"How are you?" I blurted out subconsciously.

"Me?" Kailan looked down at his body: "I'm fine, what's wrong?"

"Nothing." I waved my hand: "When did you go up?"

"Just when you were in a daze," Kailan said.

"When you are in a daze?" I asked myself.

"Maybe you don't know it, but in order to figure out 'what is architecture,' you spent a total of half an hour in a daze," Odachi said in a leisurely tone.

"so long?"

"It's been so long," Odachi said, "I remember there was a story on the Blue Planet. It was about a man who ran into the mountains and saw two old men playing chess. After finishing the chess, he suddenly found that the ax handle was broken. He went down the mountain and asked. You know, a hundred years have passed. This is actually a question of thinking. People, once you are in a thinking state, you are not aware of the passage of time around you. You are not bad. It only takes half an hour to think once. If this is a If you think about it for a hundred years, all your sweethearts would have remarried and become grandmothers long ago."

I curled my lips and ignored Odachi's teasing.

I quickly went up to the second floor, holding on to the iron railing and looking at the re-operation of the 14th Research Base. I asked Kailan, "How did you activate this place?"

Kailan pointed at the control room with his free hand: "There is a dark wall in there. There are buttons in the dark wall. I pressed them all and they were activated."

I suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and at the same time I recalled the Blue Planet, and some movie plots - due to random pressing of buttons, the detonation system was activated, and the entire base was blown to pieces.

Scenes like this are commonplace.

Fortunately, Giselle did not install a self-destruct device on the base, otherwise Kailan and I might have been blown into two piles of pieces.

"Huh? Why are you sweating?" Kailan came closer to me curiously, stretched out his little hand, and wiped the sweat from my forehead.

"It's nothing." I forced a smile and explained, "Maybe it's because I've been relatively weak recently."

"I heard that kidney deficiency can lead to a lot of sweating. Do you think you have kidney deficiency?" Kailan said with a worried look on his face: "It doesn't matter if it is really kidney deficiency. As long as you find a famous doctor for treatment in advance, you will definitely be cured."

I choked on my saliva and coughed. I finally regained my breath, waved my hands and said, "Don't worry, my kidneys are strong."

"Why is there so much sweat there?" Kailan asked in pursuit.

"Maybe it's because my kidney function is so strong that my body can't help but feel ashamed."

In order to cope with her questioning, I had to talk nonsense seriously.

After getting a satisfactory answer, Kailan finally stopped asking questions, and I finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The two of us walked side by side and inspected the research institute to make sure that all machines and equipment were operating normally. Then we closed the research base again and followed the stairs back to the ground.

By this time, it was already dark.

Around the entrance, there are eight Destroyers guarding them. They each hold weapons and are always on guard.

Hearing the movement, they turned their heads one after another and met me face to face.

"My lord, are you back?" One of the expulsors picked up the package lying beside him and strode towards me.

"We're back," I said, "Didn't I let you move freely? Why are you all gathering here again?"

"That's it, my lord." The expulsioner said in a cold mechanical voice: "We sensed a vibration under the ground, so we quickly gathered some of our companions to guard the entrance of the cave and look forward to the return of the master."

"So that's it, thank you for your hard work." I patted the expeller on the shoulder and explained, "But don't worry, the vibration was caused by us activating the building below. Has it disappeared now?"

"As you said, yes, the shaking is gone."

"Then there's nothing to worry about." He took the bag, took out the canvas and ropes, and used the surrounding buildings and the lonely iron poles of unknown purpose to set up the tent. While fastening the ropes, he said: "The reason why I On the one hand, I want you to move freely. On the one hand, I hope you can take this opportunity to wander around, observe the terrain, and look for possible hidden buildings. On the other hand, I also want to give you a holiday and ask you to wander around and get some fresh air. .”

"My Lord, we don't need to breathe."

"." I was a little speechless: "You didn't understand what I meant. What I want to say is that you can take this opportunity to relax properly and don't be like a tight bowstring all day long. Otherwise, sooner or later, you will It’s going to be a nervous breakdown.”

"My Lord, our spirit comes from the core. As long as the core is not broken and the magic value can be continuously replenished, our spirit will never collapse."

Completely speechless.

"Well, that's it anyway. Since you don't need to rest or relax, just be careful around and don't let any suspicious guys in."

"I obey your orders."

The eight expulsors worked in pairs, guarding the four corners of the tent.

After dinner, Kailan and I lay in a daze on the soft blanket. The mechanical bird stood more than one meter away from us, with its head drooped, as if the real bird was sleeping.

"Hey" Kailan spoke first: "Let me ask you, what do you plan to do with the Fourteenth Research Base?"

"It's up to you to decide." I folded my hands and put them behind my head, and said softly: "After all, you are the descendant of the Celestial Clan, and everything here is a legacy that only belongs to you."

"Is that so?" Kailan's eyes flickered, wondering what else she was planning.
