Hamburg Mining Area underground
Black and red tentacles spread along the wall, dragging the last few German soldiers into the shadows. After a chewing sound, the entire base fell completely silent.
Chen Mo stood in the newly cleaned corridor and clapped his hands.
"My efficiency is pretty good, I got it done so quickly."
He glanced left and right.
"The killings are done, the stuff is all packed up, and nobody's jumping in the way anymore."
The important documents and the black stone tablet have been returned to their original positions, controlled by some sensible researchers using their telekinesis. The experimental equipment, modification materials, and the data that had not yet been organized all remained in their original locations.
The only problem is that there's a lot of stuff.
Hundreds of rooms, dozens of corridors, and complete sets of experimental equipment. If we were to disassemble and transport them piece by piece, I don't know how long it would take.
Chen Mo thought for a moment.
"Since it's too much trouble to take them apart, let's just pack them up and take them with us!"
He closed his eyes, and his consciousness, following the mental connection, went directly to Emma Frost.
[ Emma Frost.]
Hellfire Club Headquarters.
Emma Frost was sitting in the conference room with a long list of people in front of her.
"The original experimental department was divided into three groups. Azazel was in charge of external transportation, originally belonging to the Red Chess..."
Chen Mo's voice suddenly rang in her mind, and Emma Frost's words came to an abrupt halt.
Everyone on both sides of the conference table looked at her at the same time.
Why is the White Queen so easily startled lately?
However, she has now learned to control her expression and is not as flustered as last time; she just gripped the pen a little tighter.
[Master, what are your orders?]
[Prepare a space for me.]
Emma Frost paused for a moment.
You're only looking for a vacant lot?
How much open space do you need?
Chen Mo released his telekinetic power and scanned the entire base again.
The underground section stretches for several kilometers, and when combined with the external warehouses, railway tracks, and mountains, the entire area occupied would be quite large if moved there intact.
[Prepare to accommodate an underground base.]
Emma Frost's eyes flickered slightly.
She roughly understood.
Chen Mo probably obtained some technology from the German army and plans to have the club build a new experimental field to continue research. As for the specifications of an underground base, she probably just wanted to make the space as large as possible.
After all, building a new underground base requires exploration, construction, and laying of cables.
Even with the fastest construction schedule, it will still take several months.
You can't just dig a hole now and have the researchers move in and eat dirt tomorrow, can you?
Emma Frost quickly sifted through the club's portfolio of properties in her mind.
[There's an abandoned training ground on the west side of the manor, originally used to test new recruits' abilities. The location is secluded enough, with no outsiders nearby, and the size should meet your requirements.]
Okay, there it is.
Chen Mo said, "[Call out everyone who can move in the club to maintain order, and clear the training field.]"
Emma Frost frowned slightly.
[Now?]
[right.]
[Master, we need a construction team to build the experimental field. I can contact them immediately, but it will take them some time to get to the manor.]
[No construction team needed.]
Chen Mo looked around.
All you need to do is make room.
Emma Frost felt something was off the more she listened.
There's no need for an engineering team; everyone else is sent out to maintain order.
Could it be that Chen Mo isn't planning to build a new experimental site, but rather to send over a batch of experimental subjects?
Even with tens of thousands of people, there's no need to use the entire training ground.
[Master, what exactly are you planning to arrange?]
Chen Mo did not explain.
[Look up.]
The mental connection was severed instantly.
Emma Frost held the pen and remained silent for a few seconds.
No one in the room dared to urge her; the dozen or so club members were still waiting for her to continue announcing the arrangements.
"Meeting adjourned."
Emma Frost stood up. "Everyone, immediately proceed to the west side of the manor and clear out the old training ground. No one is allowed to linger or approach."
One of the managers asked in confusion, " White Queen, that place has been abandoned for a long time, why are you suddenly clearing it out?"
"Execute the command."
Emma Frost gave him a cold look.
The other person immediately lowered their head.
"Yes!"
Soon, the assembly bell rang throughout the club estate.
The cyborgs, guards, and experimental personnel who were resting emerged from the building one after another. Vehicles were driven out of the training ground, and supplies piled up near the warehouse were quickly moved.
Emma Frost led Azazel and several club members to the main gate of the manor.
The abandoned training ground is located on the west side of the manor. It is huge, with a thick concrete paving surface and several observation towers that have long been out of use.
"Have everyone gather here."
Emma Frost pointed to the training grounds, "No one is allowed to enter without my permission."
Azazel stood behind her, saying nothing.
He still retained his original appearance and abilities, but his eyes no longer held any emotion of his own.
Emma Frost felt a chill every time she saw him.
Just then, a cry of surprise came from the other side of the manor.
What is that?
There's something in the sky!
More and more people looked up.
Emma Frost followed their gaze.
The clouds in the distance are splitting open to both sides.
A huge dark shadow slowly emerged from behind the clouds, its edges covered with mud and gravel. Several trees grew above the shadow, their crowns swaying violently in the high-altitude gale.
As the shadowy figure drew closer, its full outline was finally revealed.
It was a mountain range shrouded in red mist.
No, it's not just one mountain.
Half of the Hamburg Mining Area was completely pulled out of the ground.
The mountain, railway tracks, abandoned warehouses, and mining roads are all still there. Below, there are hundreds of meters of rock layers, with dense metal tunnels embedded in the rock, and soil constantly falling between the broken pipes.
The entire mining area stretched across the sky, slowly being transported to the airspace above the club.
The sunlight was completely blocked.
The manor quickly fell into gloom, and everyone forgot about their work.
Emma Frost tilted her head back, her lips slightly parted.
She finally understood what Chen Mo meant by "planting an underground base."
He had no intention of building anything new; this guy just pulled out an existing base like a carrot.
Outside the Hamburg Mining Area.
The experimental subjects who had just escaped the base hadn't gone far.
The man with the severed finger was carrying the girl on his back, moving with the others along the woods towards the road. Suddenly, a continuous rumbling sound came from behind, and the ground began to shake violently.
Everyone turned around.
The mining area, originally nestled in the mountains, is slowly rising into the air, enveloped by a layer of red mist.
Large swaths of soil fell from the base of the mountain, crashing into the newly formed crater. Abandoned railway tracks hung suspended in mid-air, with several mine carts still clinging to them, swaying constantly as the mountain shifted.
The old man looked up for a long time, then dropped his pistol to the ground.
"My God..."
Several people nearby knelt down and repeatedly made the sign of the cross on their chests.
The man with the severed finger wanted to kneel, but he had a child on his back, so he could only stand there, his legs too weak to move.
I knew it.
He murmured, "Those tentacles must have been sent by God to save us."
The old man turned to look at him.
"God has tentacles?"
"Then who do you think can move a mountain?"
The old man thought for a moment and then knelt down as well.
In the sky.
Chen Mo stood at the forefront of the mountain, his mental power covering the entire mining area.
To prevent the underground base from collapsing during the move, he also had to secure the load-bearing structure of each floor. The bottles and jars in the laboratory couldn't be shaken around either, otherwise they would have to be reassembled after being delivered to the destination.
"If I had known moving would be this troublesome, I should have made Sieg Hart self-destruct."
Chen Mo adjusted his direction.
He originally only wanted to take the underground base, but the mountain above the base and the warehouse were also connected. Cutting it apart slowly would be a waste of time.
So he simply didn't differentiate and just packed the whole mountain up together.
Inside the Hellfire Club Manor.
The mountain is getting closer and closer.
A strong wind swept across the training ground, making everyone lose their footing. Dirt and gravel kept falling from the sky, crashing into the woods outside the manor.
Emma Frost stood there, realizing for the first time with such clarity that she had no chance of resisting Chen Mo.
Mind control is a dead end; the diamond form is no different from the physical body.
Even the club's prized cyborg army couldn't last more than a few seconds against this man.
Now, he can easily uproot a mountain.
If Chen Mo wanted, this mountain wouldn't need to be located on the training ground at all.
If the displacement were just a few hundred meters, the entire manor would be buried underground.
Emma Frost's face was a little pale.
But then, she thought of something else.
At least Chen Mo didn't kill her.
Not only did they not kill her, they also handed the club over to her management.
As long as she is useful and obedient enough, she can live on. Even after Chen Mo deals with the Black King, she can truly secure her current position.
Thinking about it this way, it doesn't seem like it's all bad.
While others didn't even have the chance to kneel, she at least knelt down relatively early.
"Everyone back off!"
Emma Frost immediately turned around and shouted, "Get off the wall and retreat to the east side of the manor!"
The club members finally realized what was happening, and the scene immediately descended into chaos.
Some people ran into the manor, some were busy starting their cars, and several researchers were holding documents, unsure whether to save their lives or their files first.
The mountain has been moved above the training ground.
Emma Frost had previously thought the training ground was spacious enough, but now it looked pitifully small. The edge of the mountain extended beyond the wall, pressing directly towards the main gate of the manor.
"A little further west!"
Emma Frost instinctively shouted at the sky.
Chen Mo glanced down at her.
"Didn't you choose the location?"
"I didn't know you were going to release an entire mountain!"
"Now you know."
The mountain slopes down slowly.
The manor's main gate was completely shrouded in shadow, and the wall was the first part of the mountainside to touch the ground. The heavy stone wall emitted a cracking sound as it began to give way under the weight, and the gate started to tilt inward.
Emma Frost turned her head abruptly.
Above the training ground, Chen Mo was standing at the very front of the mountain, waving to her.
"Don't just stand there, come and sign for it."
He pointed to the mining area behind him.
"You've arrived at your new office."
