The arrow continued to appear on the retina, indicating the direction of the 2.
The 2 continued to go down along the passage. They walked down for at least 10 meters, passing through the first floor, the second floor, and all the way down to the third floor … According to Fang Linyan's speculation, they should be in a very deep position at the bottom of the lake. Only then did they turn into a horizontal passage.
There were offices on both sides of the passage. At this time, it was chaotic inside, similar to the situation in the periphery. It seemed that something unexpected happened.
Fang Linyan walked to the end of the passage and found that there was a transparent porthole here. He could see the outside, but it seemed to be about 3 meters high from the water? This seemed to be a little inconsistent with Fang Linyan's guess.
Next to the porthole, there was a separate office. It was worth mentioning that the door of this office was tightly shut, unlike the doors of the other rooms which were wide open.
Fang Linyan pushed a few times with his hand, but it didn't move at all. Instead, the wood on the door cracked.
He found that this thing seemed to be a Mediterranean-style solid wood composite door. In fact, from the cracks inside, it could be seen that there was a metal inner layer inside.
If Fang Linyan didn't guess wrongly, when the crisis broke out at that time, some people chose to flee in panic, and some chose to defend and wait for reinforcements. This should be the stronghold chosen by someone to defend and wait for reinforcements.
Goat couldn't help urging at this time,
"Let's continue to move forward. Completing the mission is the priority."
Fang Linyan shook his head and said,
"This place is really a bit unbelievable. According to the information I have collected now, there are too many contradictions. If I don't understand these things, I won't go into the water. "
Goat said,
"Ah? Go into the water? "
Fang Linyan shrugged and said,
"Can't you see that this hidden main mission has been leading us here, and finally, it wants us to go to the deepest part of this underground lake. Is there a skull on the map that represents extreme danger?"
Goat suddenly took a breath of cold air, but there was a loud noise in his ears. It was the elite mechanical warrant officer punching the office door, but this thing still didn't move.
At the same time, the red warning light next to it also flashed. Not only that, somewhere in this building, where the guard room should be, the alarm bell must be ringing.
However, these advanced security systems had lost their effectiveness.
Fang Linyan stepped forward and looked at the place where the elite mechanical warrant officer's fist hit. He shook his head and said,
"It's really sturdy … But, maybe we can think of something else."
The mountain goat asked curiously.
"How?"
Fang Linyan said,
"My goal is to enter this office. I don't have to go through this door. Let's go upstairs again."
After the 2 came to the basement 2 floor again, Fang Linyan finally stopped in the depths of the basement 2 floor, then he walked into a seemingly abandoned room next to him. The goat said with some doubts,
"What are they doing?"
Fang Linyan said,
"I've already adjusted the distance of my steps three minutes ago to ensure that the distance of each step is the same. This way, I only need to remember the number of steps when I walk through the corridor and I can roughly measure the distance."
"Previously, I walked 137 steps from the office to the corridor stairs on the lower floor. Now that I'm on the second basement floor, I only need to walk 137 steps. This means that we're right above the seemingly sturdy office."
The goat immediately understood.
"Wow! Don't tell me you want to open the door yourself? "
Fang Linyan said,
"That's right."
After entering the room, the Elite Mechanic Warrant Officer quickly threw away all the miscellaneous items to make a circle of space. Then, he aimed at the ground and pulled the trigger to fire a round of bullets (using the company's standard firearms). After that, he stuffed a rifle grenade into the pit and pressed a cabinet on top of it to detonate the grenade.
With a muffled bang, the cabinet shook violently for a moment. Then, they realized that the dent in the floor had expanded quite a bit. The elite mechanic officer raised his fist and smashed the cabinet with it. It was as if he was using a hammer to demolish a house.
It didn't take long for a big hole to be knocked out on the ceiling of the closed office below. Then, the 3 of them jumped down together.
After entering the office, they immediately discovered that it was quite spacious. It was about three to four times the size of a normal office. From the boss's chair in the middle and the large solid wood desk, it was obvious that this was a room prepared for a very high level BOSS.
As they walked inside, they could see that in addition to a large office and reception room, there was also a lounge with a bed and a bathroom with a bathtub.
On the bed in the lounge, Fang Linyan found 2 skeletons, a man and a woman. 7 years had turned them into white bones. The strangest thing was that their cause of death was exactly the same as the dried corpse found above.
The fatal wound was on the top of the head, and the shape was flat. It was as if a swordsman directly pierced the top of the head from top to bottom.
Then Fang Linyan turned on the computer on the desk and found that this thing actually needed something like a boot password. Fortunately, the elite mechanical warrant officer actually played a role at this time. It told Fang Linyan that it had a way to deal with this primitive electronic defense.
Then, it directly removed the protective skin on its fingers and stuffed its fingertips into the USP connection port of the computer. Soon, the things in this computer were like a … plastic model that was stripped of its clothes, appearing in front of Fang Linyan without any defense.
Fang Linyan began to quickly read the information inside, then his brows suddenly frowned.
It turned out that this was an underwater dock. Most of the structure of the entire building was directly submerged at the bottom of the lake. The 3 special submersibles that carried out exploration operations at the bottom of the lake were all driven in and out directly from here.
As for why he had to go through so much trouble, Fang Linyan found the answer through another document requiring maintenance.
Wasn't it already said before that there would be a mysterious and powerful pulse wave here every once in a while. Under this interference wave, the communication would be severely disrupted. Even some electronic components on the plane would malfunction, directly causing the plane to crash.
The bottom of this mysterious underground lake was the source of this interference wave! Its power could be said to be several times that of the outside world.
In order to avoid the harm of this infection wave, the electronic equipment used in the entire Veronica laboratory was specially made, so not only did it cost a lot of money, but the equipment also looked quite clumsy.
Although the Blood Umbrella Company had a wide range of activities back then, they didn't do in-depth research on the niche industry of submersibles, so it was difficult to make targeted modifications to the special electronic equipment inside the submersibles.
So after some research, the surface of the 3 submersibles inside the underground dock was sprayed with a very unique paint. This paint could effectively prevent the destructive power of the interference wave, allowing the special electronic equipment inside the submersibles to operate smoothly.
However, everything had its pros and cons. This unique paint would quickly oxidize in the air. Once it was exposed to the air for more than an hour, its effect would be directly reduced by 50%. If it was exposed to the air for more than 3 hours, it would directly fail.
This kind of paint was extremely expensive … Forget it, the Blood Umbrella Company was not short of money.
However, the production of this thing was extremely low. It couldn't be obtained with money! Therefore, the Blood Umbrella Company had no choice but to find another way and build an underwater dock.
The operation, maintenance, and other work of the submersibles were always kept underwater. Although it was troublesome, it was also a helpless move. It could also ensure that the underwater exploration could always be carried out smoothly.
But now the problem came. Fang Linyan stood in front of the transparent porthole of the underwater dock at this time, and he found that the lake level at this time had actually lowered a lot. The underwater dock had become a water dock.
It must be known that when the Blood Umbrella Company built this underwater dock, they must have carefully inspected it to ensure that even during the dry season, the underwater dock would not be exposed to the water.
Moreover, there was a clear record in the hydrological data that Fang Linyan just saw. After the investigation of experts, this lake had existed for almost 2000 years. During this period, from the analysis of the sediments on the shore, its depth had always remained relatively stable. There was no difference between the dry season and the rich season.
However, in the short span of seven years after the disaster, a 15-meter-deep underwater dock had become a floating dock. This was really a little unbelievable, and there was probably a huge secret hidden in it.
After understanding these things, Fang Linyan already had a rough outline in his mind, and this computer also recorded 2 very important information.
That was, among the 3 submersibles that could be used, the one that had been used for the longest time and looked the most ragged was the most useful because it had the most mechanical structures inside, so it was the most reliable when diving underwater.
The other 2 submersibles seemed to be more advanced, and there was a strange paint protection, but the electronic components inside still had to be replaced every 2 or 3 months.
Another piece of news was that these three submersibles had been specially modified. Due to frequent painting and other operations, only the diving function was limited. A special key was needed to unlock the submersibles, and the backup key and instruction manual for the submersibles were placed in the navigation office.
After Fang Linyan and Goat left this room, they continued to walk in the direction pointed by the arrow, then they came to the bottom of the underwater dock. They found that there were indeed 2 submersibles parked here … The arrow on the retina was pointing at them.
