Cheng Cao, who was about to enter, was taken aback when he saw this. He silently retracted his foot.
This passage was about twenty meters long. The walls on both sides, the floor, and the ceiling were all made of glass.
There was nothing special about being made of glass in itself. However, behind the glass, there were squares. These squares were composed of strip lights that emitted a pale blue light.
Countless strip lights illuminated the passageway, making it brightly lit.
At the end of the passage was a tightly shut metal door.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Cheng Cao only felt a deep sense of déjà vu...
"Don't worry."
Seeing Cheng Cao's hesitation, Chen Chen explained as he walked in, "There's an AI identification system here. When we took the elevator into the underground, the AI already recognized our identities."
"Can these lights also emit lasers like in the movies?"
Cheng Cao could not help asking as he walked and looked around.
"That's called an Ar ion laser generator. It can emit plasma at tens of thousands of degrees."
Chen Chen ran his finger across the glass wall and explained, "The surrounding walls are tempered glass called 'Superwhite Organic Polymer Alloy'. In addition to being harder than steel, it also has a beam expanding function. It can combine the lasers into various shapes and harvest any illegal lifeforms that dare to enter the passage without any blind spots."
"Welcome, Commander Sigma 05. Sir Commander, you've arrived at the underground 'Spire' Experimental Base A001."
Suddenly, a cold, mechanical voice of a girl came from the corridor. The voice did not contain any emotion like Little X's. Instead, it sounded more like a machine without a soul.
Chen Chen pointed above and said to Cheng Cao, "This is the 'Spire's' artificial intelligence 'X-111'. It's in charge of this place."
This X-111 was Little X's clone.
Due to the issue of authority, Little X could not be exposed to low-level authorities. Therefore, just like the God chip, Little X replicated a less intelligent artificial intelligence to maintain the operation of the entire underground laboratory.
As the two of them walked to the end of the passage, the steel door at the end opened to both sides with a deafening sound, revealing another door that was rising up behind it.
After the second metal door rose, another spiral-shaped door appeared. When all three doors opened, the two of them saw a staircase moving upward slowly behind the door.
To be on the safe side, the elevator entrance to the Spire's laboratory extended 50 meters downwards and was completely sealed off by tens of meters of reinforced concrete.
In other words, even if an intruder managed to destroy the laser passageway, they would still need to dig through fifty meters of reinforced concrete in order to break into the Spire laboratory.
After ascending the escalator to the top and passing through many security facilities, Chen Chen and Cheng Cao finally arrived at the underground experimental base.
This was the territory of the Spire Laboratory.
In the distance, a Mayan pyramid-like building stood towering. No matter how one looked at it, it was incomparably breathtaking. There were many other buildings around it, including dormitories, training grounds, warehouses, canteens, and so on.
In the surrounding open space, a large number of ornamental plants that did not require sunlight were planted. Chen Chen even deliberately created a large underground garden to prevent the researchers in the Spire from developing psychological problems.
In addition, there were lights everywhere, giving people the illusion that they were on the ground.
At the other end of the underground base, an artificial pier with a diameter of about 50 meters was dug down.
In the future, this dock would be connected to the sea like a tunnel. At that time, submarines could be docked and it would become the second entrance to the Spire.
As for the problem of seawater flowing in, there was no need to worry at all, because the channel connecting to the ocean was L-shaped. It was just like putting a cup upside down into the water, but the water would not enter the cup. There was still atmospheric pressure.
When the water pressure of the seawater was equal to the atmospheric pressure in the air, the seawater could not backflow into the underground laboratory.
As for the long and narrow passage connecting the underground laboratory to the outside world, Chen Chen planned to completely seal it with concrete.
At this time, Chen Chen saw that on the training ground of the underground laboratory, fifty clones implanted with God chips were sweating profusely as they underwent rehabilitation training.
With the control of the God chip, their physical strength was squeezed to the limit, no more, no less. They continued to grow stronger every day until they reached the limits of the human body.
The only thing these warriors lacked was equipment and weapons.
Of course, the weapons here did not refer to conventional weapons.
Although Chen Chen had smuggled several batches of arms from the Russian arms dealers, how could these weapons compare to the army of the Earth Federation?
In the future, when these Black Knights carried out missions, if they encountered encounters with other continents, it would be difficult to bridge the gap in weapons no matter how excellent the clones were. After all, the current era of war was no longer dominated by manpower.
Therefore, Chen Chen needed a large number of unconventional weapons such as the GS Combat Suit, PK Armor, and other equipment that far surpassed modern technology. Only then could he arm the world's top combat force.
However, Chen Chen's USB drive did not have that much energy.
Therefore, reverse engineering and analyzing these movie props was the next step in Chen Chen's plan.
The GS Combat Suit was composed of nano-scale carbon fiber and polyethylene fiber. Just manufacturing these nano-scale filaments was a challenge, not to mention the even more difficult liquid armor and the electronic spine.
However, this was also the prop that Chen Chen had the least technical requirement. As for high-tech equipment like the PK Armor, Chen Chen had not considered replicating it in the past 20 to 30 years.
With this in mind, Chen Chen could not help but think of the materials laboratory where he performed the material analysis for the GS Combat Suit and the three scientists in the laboratory.
It seemed that it was time to consider recruiting a group of materials science experts. However, before that, he must first have the world's most advanced materials research institute.
With this in mind, the two of them had arrived at the entrance of the Spire laboratory. Chen Chen said to Cheng Cao, "Cao, go rest in the lounge. I'll call you when it's time to leave."
Cheng Cao nodded and turned to leave.
Chen Chen walked into the laboratory again and went to the radiation protection laboratory that was the earliest on the first floor.
Chen Chen sat in front of the test bench and took out the USB drive clipped to his wrist guard.
He had previously spent four months using the USB drive to absorb a huge amount of electricity through the Symphony of the Seas. If this electricity was converted into energy, it was equivalent to a nuclear bomb with a yield of 2.15 megatons.
Chen Chen did not use all of this energy to extract crystalline. He only extracted a total of 33 crystals. Two of them were used for experiments on mice, so he only absorbed 31 crystals.
Based on the 4.5 kilograms per crystal, Chen Chen had extracted a total of 148 kilograms of material. At this time, the USB drive could still extract 52 kilograms of material.
So, what should he extract next?
After thinking about it, Chen Chen plugged the USB drive into the computer and opened the USB drive. He shifted his gaze to a movie in the USB drive.
Mister Books.
