Chapter 457: Underground Exploration

"You...are you a human or a ghost..."

The Rubik's Cube curled its lips. The question itself was a problem. It must have gone wrong in the panic.

"Do you believe me if I say I'm a human?"

"…………"

The ten people finally realized that how could a human or a ghost look like this? They had never seen such a thing. Since it was a robot that could transform, could it be...a Transformer! In an instant, the ten people who were still alive looked at the Rubik's Cube with shining eyes, and at the same time, a question mark rose in their hearts. Is this guy an Autobot or a Decepticon? He looks a bit like one of the Decepticons...

"Don't think about it. You won't figure it out even if you think about it for a lifetime. Hurry up and sit down to rest and replenish your energy. You have to go up again in a while."

After that, the Rubik's Cube opened its back mechanically, and more than 20 round intelligent reconnaissance devices with small wings flew out. They flickered their small wings and flew around like little bees. During the flight, they simultaneously emitted fan-shaped scanning beams to scan and draw 3D maps of the underground space structure, with clear details down to every thumb-sized object.

The computer screen summarized and analyzed the signals sent back by the detector and drew a map. It was very large, so large that Rubik's Cube could stand and jump to play. This ghost place was not an artificially excavated imperial tomb. It would probably take several dynasties to dig an underground space of this size. The previous guess was correct. Many places were naturally formed, but they were used and transformed into tombs by those people.

What a waste. A good underground space was turned into a place to bury the dead. Those in power really have their minds full of selfishness and desires. Rubik's Cube doesn't understand the calculations of Feng Shui, but it feels that it is a pity to turn this place into a tomb.

After searching for a long time, most of the detectors have finished searching and mapping. Only the detectors at both ends of the widest underground huge space are still drawing. The space is very large, one end is gradually upward. Rubik's Cube speculated based on the terrain outside that the end should go deep into the belly of a mountain, and the other end is gradually downward. It is expected that there may be an underground river.

Seeing that these ten people did not go anywhere and stayed where their headlights could reach, Rubik's Cube simply made ten flashlights quickly and threw them down.

"Take it and use it. It's for you."

The group happily picked up the flashlight made by Rubik's Cube and turned it on. They immediately felt that the flashlight was very useful. The light spread evenly, the brightness was moderate, and it could shine far. This was a good thing. It was the first time for the hikers who had been shopping online for several years to see it. It would be even better if they didn't occasionally shine the light on the body of the companion who was smashed into a meat pie...

Soon, the several reconnaissance vehicles that were exploring upwards flew to the end. There was an exit in the mountains over there, but it was very small, while the reconnaissance vehicles that were exploring downwards were still flying forward and tended to be more and more spacious.

"That... Mr. Robot, has the world's technology been so advanced? I hope you can take us back to a place where there are people when we go out. We haven't been back for a long time. My family should miss us. The big guy has been married for less than a year, hehe~"

Several people teased the big guy. Rubik's Cube glanced at them. Looking at their appearance, these poor guys didn't know that the whole world was over. Fortunately, none of these people went crazy and mutated. Unfortunately, they still lived in the expectation of a beautiful future and dreamed every day.

"I've been absent for almost a year. If I don't go back to report, the school might expel me."

"Yes, I asked for half a month's leave. Now my boss will definitely fire me. I have to find a new job when I go back. However, this year's life is also a kind of experience for me."

The Rubik's Cube's mechanical eyes turned and decided to tell them the bad news.

"Don't worry about going back. You can't go back even if you want to. Don't worry, the school will never expel you. As for you, your boss doesn't care whether you go back or not. As for your wife... I hope she is still alive and not married."

"You... what are you talking about..."

Several people didn't like what he said. Why is he so unrefined? It doesn't matter whether the school and the company expel him or not, but can you talk nonsense about whether his wife is still alive or married?

"The world is over. More than 90% of humans have mutated and died. Even if they are still active, it does not mean they are still alive. You will know it if you watch your human news programs." After the Rubik's Cube finished speaking, the mechanical eye projected a screen to play a series of human news programs when the zombie crisis just broke out. People were screaming and running on the streets that were on fire in a panic. Soldiers kept firing with guns. There were explosions from time to time. Pale humans could be seen everywhere, pinning down and eating others...

"Are you kidding me?"

"You will know when you get out. In fact, you are already very happy living here."

The Rubik's Cube closed its mechanical eyes and ignored the quarrels of these people. Whether they were scared from the bottom of their hearts and didn't believe it or didn't believe it at all, it didn't matter. The facts were there. Whether you admit it or not, you can't change the facts. Just accept your fate.

After a while, the Rubik's Cube had to stop the reconnaissance plane to continue the investigation because a huge and bottomless black hole appeared after walking a long distance below. It was unknown how long it would take to explore the black hole. Time was tight and there was no need to waste it in a cave.

Just when all the reconnaissance devices turned around and prepared to return, suddenly a trace of energy fluctuation was captured, and that energy fluctuation made the Rubik's Cube feel very familiar.

The computer looked up the previous data and immediately found where this energy was found. It was in the underground lake in Jiangcheng's underground fortifications! It was that strange energy crystal! But why would the same thing appear here thousands of miles away? The Rubik's Cube, with question marks all over the computer, planned to go and take a look. After all, energy has a fatal attraction for mechanical life.

"I plan to go deep into the cave to explore something. Do you want to wait here or go with me?"

"I'll go with you."

"It's better to stay where you are..."

The team was divided into two groups. Several more stable men insisted on staying here and not going anywhere. Three women and a young man, a total of four people, decided to go with the Rubik's Cube. This place was really too scary and they felt unsafe.

The Rubik's Cube didn't care. He made a few pistols for the six people who didn't leave here. He took the four people and went deep underground. In order to successfully avoid those narrow sections, the Rubik's Cube had to transform into a human-sized robot. This scene shocked the four people. Where did such a large pile of metal machinery go? Alien space?
