Brother and sister Zhang Shen and Zhang Qian devoured all the energy bars in their hands.
After eating, I even had a burp full of happiness!
Wang Chen are very curious about how scarce supplies are in Base D01359. They can't even feed the two children, forcing them to run to the surface to take risks.
Even if energy radiation destroys all technological facilities, solid food packets, energy bars, vacuum cans and other reserve materials can be stored for decades without refrigeration and freezing.
Zhang Shen licked his lips, looked up at the sky, and said, "Sir, let's leave now. It will be very dangerous when it gets dark. If we encounter a hunter, we will be in trouble."
Hunter?
Wang Chen's eyes flashed.
Hunters are one of the military services of Nether Race. From what the other party said, it is obvious that there are still alien races on Tampas Star.
He kept it in mind and didn't ask further questions.
Under the leadership of Zhang Shen, Wang Chen followed the brother and sister into a dry sewer.
The three of them walked through the maze of underground pipes for nearly half an hour, and then climbed down into a deep well.
There was no lighting in this underground space, and you couldn't see your fingers, but Zhang Shen brought a piece of fluorescent stone with him for lighting, and finally arrived in front of a rusty steel shield door.
Boom, boom, boom!
Zhang Shen raised his fist and knocked on the door rhythmically.
After a while, a small window suddenly opened on the door, revealing a pair of eyes.
"Hey, you brought outsiders back?"
The voice inside the door was hoarse and full of surprise. "Who is he?"
"This gentleman is Battle Class, he is here to find someone."
Zhang Shen smiled and said, "Uncle Sun, please do it for your convenience. This adult saved my sister and me. He is not a bad person."
"The bad guys don't have words written on their faces."
Uncle Sun inside said angrily, "Since you are willing to provide guarantee, you can let him in, but the rules cannot be changed."
Wang Chen calmly took out five energy bars and stuffed them in. "Is this okay?"
On the way here, he heard from Zhang Shen that outsiders had come to Base D01359 before. According to the rules set by the base leader, they had to pay a fee to enter.
Of course, the cost is not Star Yuan, but all useful materials.
Food is of course the best hard currency!
In fact, during the fall of Tampas Star, many underground bases maintained communication and personnel exchanges, until an energy storm appeared, which greatly changed the situation.
Base D01359 has also been visited by no one for a long time.
Although the gatekeeper was very wary of outsiders, the five energy rods easily destroyed his reserve.
With a teeth-searing friction sound, the heavy shield door opened from the inside.
Zhang Shen pulled his sister in and ducked in, followed by Wang Chen.
Bang!
The shield door was closed again and locked.
There were two people guarding the portal inside. When they saw Wang Chen coming in behind the brother and sister, they all had surprised looks on their faces.
Because Wang Chen's dress and mental outlook do not look like someone who has been trapped underground on this planet for three years.
"Which base are you from?"
One of the middle-aged men couldn't help but ask, "A-level?"
Wang Chen nodded. "A00023."
Base D01359 probably doesn't know that the empire has recovered Tampas Star Cluster, and because of the huge impact of unknown energy radiation, the empire is unable to contact these bases.
The previous mission performed by Xu Chengzhi also included searching for survivors, but he became a missing person.
In order to avoid trouble, Wang Chen does not plan to tell these people the truth for the time being.
After all, it will take a month for Flying Ship to land on the planet, and the number of people who can be taken away at one time is very limited.
So he just casually mentioned the number of the A-level base.
The other party believed it.
Another guard asked again, "Who are you looking for?"
So Wang Chen took out the photo again.
The two passed each other and looked at it again, and finally shook their heads - they had never seen it before.
One person said, "Go inside and ask Tie Hu and the others. They often go to the surface to collect supplies. Maybe they have encountered them."
"Thanks."
Wang Chen thought for a while and took out another pack of cigarettes, "You guys should divide it."
"Fuck!"
The other party's eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets. "You actually brought cigarettes with you. You really deserve to be from an A-level base!"
Wang Chen smiled and said to brother and sister Zhang Shen: "Let's go."
The three of them walked through the long underground passage, went down a staircase for about a hundred meters, and then opened a door.
The main area of Base D01359 appeared in front of Wang Chen.
This D-class base actually has a basic power supply and has an obviously modified lighting system. Although it looks very crude, at least the people living here have not returned to Savage Wilderness.
It's just that most of the equipment and facilities are not functioning, and everything looks in a mess, like a steel fortress that has been in disrepair, which looks quite shocking.
Some of the wires laid on the walls were still sizzling and flashing with sparks of electricity.
Along the way, Wang Chen met some people from the base.
They all looked gloomy, dirty and haggard, living a bit like zombies.
This made Wang Chen, who had just arrived, stand out from the crowd and attracted everyone's attention.
Some people just followed.
Several of them had greedy and jealous looks in their eyes.
Zhang Shen became nervous. He quickened his pace and brought Wang Chen to the door of a small bar. "Sir, Tie Hu and the others should be inside. You can ask, I..."
He opened his mouth, but nothing else came out.
"I understand."
Wang Chen patted his shoulder. "Thank you for bringing me here. You and your sister can go home."
Zhang Shen said softly, "You must be careful."
After saying that, he took off the backpacks on himself and Zhang Qian, threw them on the ground, and quickly ran away with his sister.
Those who came around just glanced at it, and then returned their attention to Wang Chen.
Smart little guy!
Wang Chen smiled and pushed the door open.
The noisy sound mixed with the unpleasant smell hit us, and we saw twenty or thirty people sitting in this dimly lit bar. They sat around in small groups, drinking and laughing loudly.
The sudden appearance of Wang Chen is like the movie being played suddenly pressing the pause button.
The noise in the bar stopped suddenly, and everyone turned to look at Wang Chen, making him the center of attention.
Surprise, doubt, greed, covet...
Under the gaze of various strange eyes, Wang Chen asked calmly, "Who is Tie Hu?"
Everyone's eyes turned to a burly man sitting in front of the bar.
The latter slowly stood up. "I am."
