Machine War: Infinite Frontier

Chapter 279 Something Is Wrong

Xiao Yun's ability to engage in assassination and infiltrate into the arena was only qualified at the Knight level. Although the Iron Arena seemed heavily defended and brightly lit, it was still very simple for him to find a way to infiltrate.

Facing a group of ordinary people relying on long-term training and the equipment on their bodies, it only takes a while to sneak in. However, the only uncertainty is whether there are other arrangements in the steel arena. He will definitely arrange various traps and ambushes in important places, so if you are not careful, you will fall into an unfavorable situation.

The members of the Scythe team he brought are also experts in infiltration, specializing in handling shady matters for TMC. They must have more experience in this regard than Xiao Yun.

Moreover, the Iron Arena is currently in the repair stage. If there are many people talking, there may not be any traps. Now that the Alliance has taken control of the Iron Arena, it is too late to repair it. How can there be any time to do it? Superfluous things.

After finding a suitable location, everyone came to the highest point of the Iron Arena and found a more suitable place to enter, the gap at the top that was damaged by the battle.

After the first person jumped in carefully and checked around, he immediately sent a signal to Xiao Yun and the others: "Safe."

After everyone entered one after another, they immediately began to examine the surrounding environment in more detail. This was a dark room with a faint light shining in, but the darkness was not an obstacle at all to Xiao Yun and the others. It was clear. Just give a clear view of the situation in the room.

This should be a VIP private room. The broken stones from the dome fell down and the original high-end private room was very messy. The ground was full of gravel and broken glass. On one side, you can see the door leaving the private room on the other side. The central location of the entire steel arena.

There is a huge independent space inside the Steel Arena, which should be the competition area of ​​the Steel Arena, but at this time it also looks like a battered and dilapidated place. There are many ordinary ladder seats and other things in the ring. functional area, and at this time, Xiao Yun's eyes also got the basic architectural diagram of the Steel Arena transmitted by others.

Located on the first and second floors directly below this box, is the preparation room where Xiao Yun and others participated in the different space brawl match.

According to the structural diagram, there is also a large space under the ground of the Steel Arena, especially the space under the ground arena is even larger. From the introduction of the structural diagram, it can be seen that the arena is a replaceable environmental terrain. This is the main role of the playing field and the space below.

The Steel Arena brawl is just one of the relatively high-profile events, and the venue is not inside the arena. At that time, a huge projection will appear in the space below to display the entire competition venue. , people sitting in the private room can also have a more independent perspective to follow their favorite teams, instead of being like the people in the ordinary seats below who can only look for the content they want to watch through the countless projection screens that appear above the projection.

Compared with ordinary brawl matches, interspace brawl matches are really not interesting at all. Many people even don’t know that there is such a thing as interspace brawl matches, because no one can see another world. What is the situation? It is just an internal gamble between the major forces and the people involved.

In addition to brawl matches, there are many other competitive events in the Steel Arena. For example, modified mecha battles are also very popular. Civilian mechas are modified and then used for fighting and confrontation in the arena, and even Something similar to a league has been developed on the Alliance Star, or a small brawl where only a few teams participate and then fight for the final victory in the simulated environment provided by the arena.

After the scale is reduced, it is equivalent to changing from APEX to Overwatch. You can really play it. It's just that Xiao Yun was directly taken over by TMC without even being familiar with this place. He wants to develop it again to its most glorious time. I don’t know how much energy I need to put into it yet.

Someone came to Xiao Yun: "Boss, there is no one around. It seems that the repair work has not been done here. It is tight on the outside and loose on the inside. It just looks like an ordinary construction site. The ground on the building There shouldn’t be anything found in this part. If you want to figure out the situation, you can only continue to go deeper.”

"However, the level of guarding outside the BOSS Arena is obviously abnormal. We are not very familiar with the situation here now. Why don't we go down and investigate and let you know when we have the situation."

Xiao Yun glanced at this guy. He was wearing a helmet and it was difficult to identify him. He was wearing a uniform combat uniform, so he could only glance at the numbers on the opponent's chest to identify him.

1.

There is no problem with this guy's suggestion. It is better than Xiao Yun taking the risk himself. Xiao Yun is actually not sure what he can find out from the Iron Arena this time. After all, TMC has occupied this place for so long and has not found anything. , the possibility of him discovering anything on this trip is too small.

The main purpose of coming here this time was to look for opportunities. It was purely a matter of luck but it was not Xiao Yun's real plan. However, this time I came here, I gained something.

"Okay." Xiao Yun did not refuse, and looked towards the busiest direction in the Steel Arena: "I would rather not find anything than expose myself."

"No. 7 and No. 8 will stay to protect the boss. The others will follow me."

A group of people left and only two people were left here to protect Xiao Yun. By the way, they paid condescending attention to the situation below. Xiao Yun did not continue to cause trouble at this time. He just found a stone and sat down to wait calmly.

The people who went to investigate first reported the situation half an hour after they left, saying that the equipment was being dismantled in the lounge room of the team that participated in the interdimensional brawl.

Some less important situations were reported intermittently, but the really valuable information was reported more than two hours later. This news also woke up Xiao Yun who was almost asleep.

"What? A large facility is being built underground, and there is something that looks like a door? You've never seen a door, right? Don't you even know what a door looks like?"

"BOSS, of course we know what the door looks like, but this thing is completely different from the doors we know. Instead, it looks a bit like a backdoor device. It is a mechanical ring-shaped device with a diameter of more than two meters. It has an empty shape in the middle and is very similar to the door. It's similar, but you can't tell whether the door is wrapped inside, or whether this device is just some kind of activation facility that uses the door. There are many engineers inside, and it looks like they are preparing to build a large teleportation platform here. Yes, there are many defensive measures.”

"Send me the directions."

Xiao Yun decided to go down and have a look by himself. After receiving the route map, he immediately took two people to protect him and sneaked along the route map. He had to avoid patrols and construction personnel in many twists and turns. After going down, it took a while Nearly an hour passed before we met up with the rest of the Scythe team and hid in a corner.

The place they are now is no longer directly under the Iron Arena, but has come from an underground passage to a place several kilometers away and a depth of several hundred meters.

The interior space is huge and all is supported and reinforced with steel, and a large underground facility has been expanded underground. However, this place is still under construction, whether it is the floor, walls or the top, there are various The pipelines are in a mess. This is not an ordinary underground space. It is clearly the embryo of an underground base.

All kinds of people and construction machinery are coming and going in this huge underground space, working in full swing, but the most eye-catching thing is the middle part. A round piece of equipment is fixed by several brackets. It looks like In this posture, after the ground is paved, the bottom of the circular device will be exactly flush with the ground, and it is fixed in the ground and even difficult to remove.

There are many things connected to the bottom of this device. Thick pipes and cables are neatly arranged. What it will look like in the future and even what this thing is, Xiao Yun is a little confused even if he sees it with his own eyes now.

"It's impossible to completely fix the door in this place, right?" Xiao Yun thought for a moment and asked the person who came earlier: "Have you followed these cables to see where they extend?"

Someone immediately replied: "We just followed the route of the cable pipes inside the arena. There are no traces extending in other directions until this place. We speculate that this place was originally said to have been built before this level of construction." Maybe it’s a small secret room where the door is, and the Alliance has been hiding it here.”

Xiao Yun nodded: "In other words, it is very likely that the thing we see now is a useless decoration. The door has been moved long ago and is not here at all. Maybe the door will be moved back after it is built here?"

"That's what I presumed."

Xiao Yun focused his gaze on the large ring, and as the screen zoomed in, data analyzed by VT flashed across his eyes.

After comparing, Xiao Yun frowned slightly: "It is indeed similar to the set of equipment that was snatched from the rebels in World No. 2. The Alliance people are really careful, but what exactly does this thing do?"

"Go and take a look first." Xiao Yun continued to remain invisible towards the ring equipment and slowly approached there. Seeing this, the others quickly spread out to cover Xiao Yun, so as to avoid any unexpected situations and respond at any time. .

The closer you get, the more complicated the situation becomes and the actions need to be more cautious. Fortunately, the VT assistant directly analyzes the best route forward and synchronizes it to Xiao Yun. It took a little effort to get closer to the big circle.

This time Xiao Yun did not dare to reach out and touch around, but kept observing and analyzing at close range.

After taking a closer look, I realized that this thing is basically an empty shell now. When I get closer, I can see that the wire tubes below are not completely connected at all. Just like the situation in this underground space, they are all just superficial things.

"Evacuate and see if you can find another way in. A place so deep underground is still under construction at this level. There is definitely no ventilation facility connected to the outside."

Xiao Yun took another look everywhere. In addition to the construction personnel and machinery, there were at least a hundred armed people with weapons guarding the entire construction site. To say that it was not heavily guarded, it could not be called a tight one. There are at least a thousand people gathered here. If it is not strict, everyone is watching the eyes here.

After a while, someone reported: "Boss, no one found it. The air circulation filter device should be used here. The ventilation duct is along the passage. There are no other additional ventilation facilities."

"Retreat first." Xiao Yun decisively issued the order to evacuate, and began to evacuate directly along the edge of the underground facility and prepare to return by the original route.

After walking for a while, Xiao Yun suddenly stopped and his eyes fell on a little puppy peeing against a supporting pillar. The most surprising thing was that the dog's hair was standing up as if it was affected by a lot of static electricity.

"Where did this stupid dog come from in such a place? Was it brought in by someone?" Xiao Yun was stunned when he saw this dirty little puppy, and also noticed the supporting pillars.

Xiao Yun's eyes then fell on the steel ceiling that was almost completed on the top of the underground space, and noticed the large lighting facilities on the ceiling. Coincidentally, these lighting facilities were all round, and the arrangement in rows also had a special feeling.

"VT, model the structure of the entire space."

In Xiao Yun's eyes, a structural diagram slowly appeared from scratch, showing the structure of the entire underground space.

As Xiao Yun's thoughts moved, he changed the horizontal stereoscopic picture into a bird's-eye view and suddenly found something very interesting.

The several pillars in the middle of the underground space just appeared to surround the circle, and there was a round ceiling light on the top of the circle.

"Huh?"

Xiao Yun looked at the headlight on the circle with a suspicious look. This was a very large lighting device. It looked very ordinary and was actually very ordinary, but Xiao Yun suddenly felt that this light seemed unusual.

"Wait a minute, you find a safe place to move the machine over and forcefully attack here to test it. Something is wrong here."

The others heard and answered quickly, and Xiao Yun ran towards the direction of the puppy. The puppy looked panicked and cried in a baby voice. Xiao Yun reached out and picked it up. He stretched out his fingers to pinch the puppy's mouth to prevent it from making any sound, and then ran away quickly, hiding in a gap where no one was around.
