Chapter 151 Abnormal
The damage to the facilities inside the transportation area was even more serious, and it looked like it was done deliberately by alien creatures.
"It seems that the alien creatures also know that we humans carry out transportation activities on this planet through underground orbits, so they focus on destroying these rails."
Liu Cheng looked at the completely destroyed railway tracks that could only be re-laid and said in his heart.
The transportation area leads all the way down to the depths of the earth, some of which resemble the mine structures on planet ST44732.
All the transportation elevators were destroyed, and even the artificial metal stairs were not left. Liu Cheng could only say to the marines behind him:
"It seems that you can't follow us into the orbit below to investigate the situation for a while.
Just stay here and evacuate as soon as possible if something unusual happens. "
An officer among the Marines said:
"We also carry some small drones that should be able to help you investigate."
Liu Cheng nodded and asked the Marines to fly several drones into a tunnel below. Then he said to the seven recruits:
"Ice Crystal, Crow, and the Inspector followed me into the tunnel below to investigate the situation, while the others stayed above."
The strength of the new soldiers was still too weak, and Liu Cheng did not want too many unnecessary casualties.
If there are a large number of alien creatures below, it would be better to let the recruits go down to die than to stay here and evacuate with the marines.
Several people nodded.
Immediately, Liu Cheng picked up the detective, jumped on the broken metal stairs with Fu Yan and Tian Tiantian, and entered the tunnel below where there was no drone inspection.
The detective used his perception ability on several collapsed tunnels one after another, then turned around and said:
“These tunnels have also collapsed deep inside, it doesn’t look like they were made by alien creatures.
Even if the alien creature destroys the tunnel, it is impossible to destroy such a long distance at once and bury itself inside. "
Liu Cheng nodded, agreed with the detective's analysis and said:
“It’s very possible, but we don’t rule out alien creatures that are born to live underground and have the ability to dig soil.
But if the defenders here really took the initiative to blow up the tunnel, why would they do this? "
Tian Tiantian said:
"Will there be other alien creatures coming through the tunnel?"
Fu Yan said:
“If other bases also fall, alien creatures can indeed crawl out through the tunnels.
But the defenders are not a vegetarian. Unless the alien creatures outside and the alien creatures in the tunnel attack the base at the same time, they will not be able to defend it.
Otherwise, the tunnel attack alone would be in vain for the defenders. "
Liu Cheng thought for a moment and came to the conclusion:
"It seems that there may be a highly intelligent commanding race among the alien creatures.
But this multi-racial attack method, do you think it looks familiar? "
Fu Yan and Tian Tiantian were startled and tentatively said:
"Are you talking about the beast tide and the mine?"
"Well, I suspect it has something to do with the eight-legged bug."
The detective looked left and right, wondering what riddle the captain and the others were trying to solve.
After noticing something strange, Liu Cheng and the others acted more carefully.
They came to several cave entrances that had not collapsed, and the detective used his perception ability.
He compressed the sensing range to a distance as wide as the tunnel, and the sensing range expanded to one hundred and fifty meters.
"No alien creatures were detected within one hundred and fifty meters."
Liu Chengdao:
"The range of one hundred and fifty meters is too close. To be on the safe side, let's explore deeper."
The detective showed a troubled expression and said:
"This range is my limit, and this is the result of me compressing the range of perception.
Although my superpower can sense all objects in space, its shortcoming is also obvious, that is, its range is limited. "
Liu Cheng didn't waste any time. He immediately put his right hand on his shoulder and used the strengthening power to enhance the detective's ability.
Feeling the supernatural energy coming from his body, the detective didn't understand what the soldier captain was trying to do at first.
However, the next moment, the supernatural energy in his body suddenly surged.
He unexpectedly discovered that he could actually use the supernatural energy passed into his body by the soldier captain.
"It's incredible, Captain Butcher, how did you do it?"
the detective asked in surprise.
Liu Chengdao:
"This is my superpower, don't talk nonsense, hurry up and explore it."
The detective withdrew his heart and used his perception power again, compressing the range to the same width as the tunnel.
However, this time the linear range of perception increased rapidly, reaching one kilometer away in the blink of an eye.
The detective was ecstatic, and it was the first time he experienced the joy of a substantial increase in strength.
Liu Cheng asked:
"Can the sensing radius reach one thousand meters?"
The detective nodded repeatedly:
"Yes, yes!"
Liu Cheng did not continue to increase the intensity of strengthening. After all, strengthening the superpower was the most energy-intensive one for him.
Although the detective didn't know that this degree of enhancement was not Liu Cheng's limit, he felt that it was very powerful, so he carefully sensed the situation in each tunnel.
After Liu Cheng and others and the drones controlled by the Marines had inspected the conditions in all tunnels.
Several people from Liu Cheng came up and said to the marines:
“Inside the tunnel we inspected, all the rails were destroyed, but no alien creatures were found.
What about you? "
The Marines controlling the drone shook their heads and said:
"Our situation is the same as yours. All the rails in the tunnels are destroyed, and no alien creatures are found.
Some tunnels have collapsed, and it looks like the defenders have destroyed them."
Liu Cheng can be sure that the defenders have really discovered that alien creatures are attacking through the tunnels.
The speculation that this fortress base was attacked from both inside and outside is more certain.
"What should we do now? Should we go back and report the situation?"
Liu Cheng said:
"Wait, I'll ask the third squad first."
Liu Cheng opened the communication channel and sent a communication request.
The signal in the base is still good. After the connection, Liu Cheng asked:
"This is the Wolf Squad. We didn't find any alien creatures in the armament transportation area.
What's the situation on your side?"
The sergeant of the third squad said:
"I was just about to send you a communication. It's the same here. No alien creatures were found in the living area."
Abnormal.
In such an abnormal place, being too normal is abnormal.
"Well, let's go back together and report the situation to Platoon Leader Ji and the others."
After Liu Cheng finished speaking, he hung up the communication and said to the Marines:
Leave some of you to stand guard inside the fortress and report any situation in time, and the others will follow me back the same way.
After the Wolf Squad and the Special Operations Squad 3 walked out of the original Second Military Base, Liu Cheng and the sergeant of the Squad 3 described their respective exploration situations.
After listening to the reports of the two, Division Commander Wang and Platoon Leader Ji frowned.
