Chapter 226 Not a Problem
The group walked forward in silence, and the world slowly disappeared behind them. Except for Chen Ke, no one knew that there was a god beside them.
Two hours later, although it was already morning, the sky was getting darker and darker.
This was a very wonderful thing. The sky was pitch black, but the surrounding scenery was illuminated by a light source from nowhere, as if the last afterglow of the sun remained.
For some reason, in the last journey, even the birdmen in the sky disappeared, and the whole world seemed to be dead as if all vitality had been taken away.
There was no sound of insects and birds, no feeling of the wind and the glory of the sun and the moon. Chen Ke once doubted whether they were the only living things in this place?
When they arrived at the town, everyone decided to take a break. Chen Ke and his friends were lucky to find the food that had just been put on the table in the town's houses.
Regardless of whether the food on the table was clean, everyone devoured it. Compared with the biscuits and potato chips in the supermarket, hamburgers, milk and eggs were more delicious.
Although Chen Ke did not need to eat, he also symbolically drank some milk. The liquid went down his throat and swallowed it, as if he had fallen into a non-existent dimension.
After eating, drinking, defecating, washing and tidying up, everyone made themselves more comfortable. Diana also took the opportunity to sleep for a while. After recovering their physical strength and energy, the group set off again.
When everyone crossed the woods, shuttled through the streets, and finally stood in front of the Administration Hospital, it was about 10 o'clock in the morning.
The sky was still dark, and a thin layer of white mist appeared on the street. Chen Ke handed Diana to Sam and asked them to stay at the fountain of the square a little further away with the survivors. He and Ying Baiyi walked towards the hospital.
"Okay, this is it." Ying Baiyi said at the entrance of the hospital.
Chen Ke looked up at the hospital. The appearance looked unremarkable. It didn't look particularly different because it was a special hospital of the Administration.
Except for the Administration logo on the white building, it was no different from other hospitals. It was even smaller than other hospitals.
This is because the Administration's hospital is not open to ordinary citizens. It only serves resident psychics, so it doesn't need to be very big.
Chen Ke scanned the surroundings with his spiritual vision and found no living creatures. It looked very safe inside.
He grabbed an M14 and followed Ying Boyi into the hospital.
This hospital was very clean, worthy of being the site of the Administration. In the hall, wards, workstations and corridors, there were piles of red and gray.
On the table in the hospital cafeteria, there were half-eaten meals, which were much richer than those in ordinary small restaurants. Just from the color, people's appetite was stimulated. There were even Phoenix meals, such as noodles, buns and dumplings.
"Damn, the food is good enough." Chen Ke couldn't help but sigh.
"Psychic energy has a great load on the human body. There will be a period of weakness after injection and extraction, especially for injured agents. They must first extract psychic energy from their bodies before healing. The Administration provides the best medical and nutritional supplements for its agents. Considering the danger of this job, I don't think this treatment is a big deal." Ying Boyi said.
What Ying Baiyi said was not wrong. After all, it was a profession that dealt directly with monsters, which was much more dangerous than being an investigator. Besides, agents were also public servants, so there was nothing wrong with better treatment.
Since Ying Baiyi was a Level 9 agent here, he was already familiar with the structure of the hospital, and took Chen Ke to the shelter with ease.
The shelter was located underground in the hospital, about 400 meters underground to be exact, where the temperature was higher than on the ground, and it also had to contend with ground pressure.
The only way to the shelter was through a special communication shaft, which was a high-speed elevator shaft with a diameter of 100 meters. There were eight elevators going up and down, and special access cards were required to enter. These elevators all used underground dedicated lines and would not stop working due to power outages.
Ying Baiyi took out his ID card to start the elevator, saying, "Welcome to hell."
The two walked into the elevator, as if they were stuffed into an iron can that had sunk to the bottom of the sea, and moved underground.
42 seconds later, the elevator finally stopped, and the door slowly opened, revealing a black corridor with a self-luminous floor.
Just walking in this corridor, Chen Ke felt a strong sense of oppression. He knew that this sense of oppression came from the natural anxiety of humans about closed spaces.
Any creature living on a vast surface would not like closed or crowded places. In fact, not only humans, but even animals can suffer from claustrophobia. Many dogs and cats that have been locked in cages for a long time have this mental illness.
"Where should we go now?" Chen Ke asked, loosening his tie.
"We are going to the control room. It looks like there is still electricity here, so they should all be locked up well." Ying Baiyi said.
The two walked along the corridor. Ying Baiyi's 9th-level agent magnetic card could unlock most of the access control here, enough for them to enter the control room unimpeded.
The control room is a very large room with several rows of monitors hanging on the walls. Through these monitors, you can see the monsters in thousands of rooms.
The screen on the monitor was all green, because there was no light in the room, and it needed a light source. Some strange creatures were lying in the middle of the room, dozing off.
Chen Ke had never seen most of these monsters before. A dog with a split head, a human figure with ulcers all over its body, a white tablecloth floating in the air, a stone pillar with four limbs and painted with oil, and a room that was inexplicably occupied. The muscle fibers are stuffed, and the four walls are already looking like flesh and blood...
Ying Boyi blew away the red dust on the keyboard, and then tried to operate it. Chen Ke, on the other hand, directly used his spiritual vision to scan how many monsters there were in this space.
Surprisingly, Chen Ke didn't sense any living things, so he looked at Ying Boyi to see if he had discovered anything.
"Most of them are in a light sleep state. We are lucky...the backup power down here comes from geothermal generators and a special energy station, so its functions are still intact." Ying Baiyi said.
"Are there any living monsters?" Chen Ke asked.
"Of course. Look." Ying Boyi said, pressing a button.
I saw the surrounding monitors being slowly pulled up, and the outer walls of the room slowly became transparent. Chen Ke couldn't help but get closer and look down, and found that the entire central control room was suspended in the air with only one robotic arm, and below it was It's a matrix of countless rooms.
"Chen Ke, pick one." Ying Baiyi said.
"Are you sure?" Chen Ke asked.
"The bad news is that I can't defeat any of the monsters here. The good news is that the containment device is functioning normally, and we don't need to do anything to kill them." Ying Boyi said with a smile.
"How?" Chen Ke looked surprised.
"Enter the room number and press the button. You can turn the room into a vacuum, or spray poison, or strengthen the psychic repulsion field... Anyway, you just pick one, and the one you choose will die. ." Ying Baiyi's hands flew on the keyboard, searching for the room number.
Chen Ke was stunned. He thought this trip would take some effort, but he didn't expect it to be so simple...
He walked to Ying Boyi and looked at the monitor. Without the help of a time countdown, Chen Ke really didn't know that those monsters were powerful enough, so he could only judge them based on their size and feeling.
"I don't know the strength of these monsters, why not just kill them all." Chen Ke asked.
"The erasure mechanism consumes a lot of energy. Now the place is operating normally, but it only maintains a containment state. If you use up all the backup power, we won't even be able to get out from below." Ying Baiyi explained.
"Well..." Chen Ke responded, slightly regretful.
There are so many monsters housed here, killing just a few and getting some souls can help him extend his life for a long time...
"How many monsters is enough energy to kill?" Chen Ke asked.
"It's not that much. Compared with the total receiving capacity here... I guess forty or fifty is still okay." Ying Boyi replied.
Chen Ke's eyes glowed, forty or fifty? ! He rubbed his hands together, like a money-worshipping woman shopping on Taobao, and stared at the screen enthusiastically, urging Ying Boyi to show him the monsters in the room.
"You look very excited, Chen Ke. I hope your method is really effective." Ying Boyi said while calling up the room list.
"I promise you...Ying Baiyi, as long as the containment measures are as you said, monsters can be killed by pressing a button...then it won't matter how many doors you ask me to open..." Chen Ke smiled. .
Chen Ke's lifespan will be greatly improved
