Chapter 110
When Shen Xingtang and Brother Zhang entered the control room, they noticed that the entire control room was in dead silence.
When the captains of Team Jifeng and Team KID entered the control room of the abandoned base station, Director Koria had already asked the staff to call the persons in charge of the two bases over. As soon as they heard that the situation in the restricted area had changed, the two of them rushed over without stopping.
Brother Zhang noticed the awkward atmosphere in the control room and whispered to Shen Xingtang beside him, "Are they going to do anything serious?"
Shen Xingtang's eyes stopped at Elder Qiu and the director, "It should be."
Brother Zhang: “!”
What do you mean it should be! ?
Speaking of the C-147 station chief, Director Corea looked at the staff member who had retrieved the remote access records. "What did you say? C-147 station chief?"
The staff member was slightly stunned when he saw this, then he lowered his head and looked at the information again, and confirmed: "Yes, Stationmaster Ying Songshan."
The entire control room fell silent. Several staff members looked at each other. They had also worked in the Kolya contaminated area for many years. The restricted area is a secret within the Koria contaminated area, and the system inside the restricted area has high authority. Even they can only access the restricted area system when the border troops are performing tasks.
Everyone who has been involved in this work knows that there is an abandoned base station in the restricted area, but they are not allowed to explore more hidden things. Now they have noticed that the expressions of the director and Mr. Qiu are a little strange, and they are extremely curious about Stationmaster Ying Songshan.
"What happened to Stationmaster Ying Songshan?" A female voice suddenly spoke, breaking the silence in the control room.
Director Kolya came to his senses and turned around to see Shen Xingtang and Brother Zhang standing at the door.
"KID and Jifeng accidentally entered the restricted area. Our mecha bases will accept any punishment." Shen Xingtang entered first and walked straight to Director Kolya. "I received news that the Kolya Administration has issued a temporary call for mecha divisions from KID and Jifeng bases. Since we have issued a call for Jifeng and KID, we, as the heads of the base, have the obligation to inform our mecha divisions of the mission details."
Brother Zhang was immediately overwhelmed when he saw Shen Xingtang rushing in so recklessly. "Hey, Boss Shen, I have something to say..."
At this time, the staff who were connected to the base station tried to take over the base station many times but failed, and one after another failed response reminders appeared in front of everyone.
Director Kolya stepped forward and asked, "What's going on?"
Staff: "Director, we have asked Captain Qi to restart the base station system, but there is still no response."
There was a bit of cloudiness in Mr. Qiu's eyes, but he looked at the restricted area system with great seriousness, "Where is the special research institute?"
"The response from the institute has failed several times. We were able to access the system remotely just now, but now the system has problems." The staff member said: "This system is too old. We can only try to use remote repair."
Failure to take over the base station system would mean failure to provide the best guidance to the mecha divisions in battle.
"Mr. Qiu, I was part of the mission to clear out Kolya eight years ago. I personally experienced that mission and know how dangerous the restricted area is, so I have reason to ask about the current situation." Shen Xingtang looked at him seriously, his attitude was extremely firm: "As far as I know, there was no stationmaster after the base station was abandoned eight years ago."
Director Kolya was stunned for a moment, then he said belatedly, "No wonder you look familiar to me. You were here on that mission before."
"Yes." Shen Xingtang said, "I was the maintenance engineer who was called in for emergency support at that time."
The other staff members in the control room did not expect Shen Xingtang to have such a firm attitude, and they all looked at Director Coria and Mr. Qiu.
Just when everyone thought that Mr. Qiu would not give any answer, Mr. Qiu said, "Ying Songshan, Director of the Second Research Institute of the Dawn Galaxy Border Army, later served as the stationmaster of the C-147 base station in the Koria Contaminated Zone. He resigned from the position after the Koria Contaminated Zone incident in 1226."
Director Kolya: "Mr. Qiu."
"It's okay." Elder Qiu looked at Shen Xingtang. "He designed the C-147 base station in the Kolia restricted area, including the shielding system that is currently in operation. It was the last barrier he left for the Kolia restricted area 20 years ago."
Shen Xingtang was stunned when he heard this, "What about him?"
"But he left the Border Army after he finished these things, and there has been no news since then." Qiu Lao continued: "After the clearing mission eight years ago, the Border Army tried every means to find him and redesign the base station system, but we couldn't find any news about him."
When talking about Ying Songshan, Qiu's cloudy eyes seemed to be filled with deep emotions, and his tone of voice sounded a few years older, as if he was recalling a colleague or friend, or an old friend. "Songshan is the only person who knows everything about abandoned base stations, and he is also the designer of the abandoned base station system."
The staff member was surprised to hear this: "But the visit record just now said..."
"The border troops have been looking for him for 20 years and haven't found him. I don't think he would appear in this place."
Mr. Qiu continued, "The person who entered the correct permission password must be related to him. If we want to restore the base station response, we have to find him."

The opening of the invisible door wall reveals an infinite staircase leading underground. There was no light in the dark stairs, and thick dust fell as one walked. Ying Chenlin walked down with the help of the light from the energy meter. In the silent environment, there was only the faint prompt sound of the energy meter.
When he just came in, You Su saw Ying Chenlin entering a new password. That password was different from the password he used to enter the research institute at the beginning. It seemed to be the result of character calculation and was also the permission password.
The first entrance may be of ordinary authority, but this place is not accessible to ordinary authorities.
When Ying Chenlin entered the second password, You Su's casual expression had completely disappeared. He looked at the person walking in front of him, "This is not an ordinary permission password."
Ying Chenlin walked down. On his optical computer, there was the calculation process of the latest string of passwords. "It uses a set of permission algorithm system. The password is always changing, but with a special key, we can derive the special password for each change based on this algorithm."
"How do you know this algorithm?" You Su asked.
Ying Chenlin noticed the change in You Su's tone. He paused for a moment and turned to look at the person standing high behind him. "I can tell you, but can you tell me what this research institute does?"
You Su looked at him but said nothing.
"Your reaction to me is very strange." Ying Chenlin held on to the wall, which was covered with dust. "You are obviously very familiar with this restricted area, but your reaction to this base station is very unfamiliar."
When You Su heard this, he chuckled: "Just because I was on a mission and came to this place, I have been to the restricted area. But that doesn't mean I have been to the base station."
Ying Chenlin looked at You Su, trying to tell from his consistent tone whether he was lying.
But he quickly looked away and focused on something else.
You Su saw that he didn't say anything, "Don't believe it?"
Ying Chenlin: "I was just thinking about this base station, it's a bit strange."
This base station is so strange. It is clearly in operation, but many of its systems are very old.
Later, a restricted area system was built into the old system. If the border troops had the ability to build this restricted area system, why didn't they destroy and rebuild the old base station system?
It's as if this base station is necessary to exist.
For this reason, the border troops and Kolya had to spend a huge amount of money to build a restricted area system on it as a second layer of barrier.
Ying Chenlin slowed down and continued walking inside.
He went in
Let’s go, You Su followed his footsteps and continued inside.
The empty and narrow underground staircase had no wind and nothing else, only the sound of two people talking and their footsteps echoing.
"I saw an article on the bulletin board outside the institute, which mentioned weapons and pollutants many times." Ying Chenlin paused after he finished speaking, and when he saw that You Su didn't say anything, he continued, "It's normal for pollutants to appear. Most base station laboratories in contaminated areas are conducting observation and research on pollutants, but weapons should not appear—"
Halfway through the conversation, the stairs came to an end.
You Su said, “We’re here.”
Ying Chenlin didn't move, and looked at You Su in the dim light.
You Su's eyelids drooped slightly, "Why are you looking at me?"
Ying Chenlin asked: "Is this the weapons research institute?"
You Su laughed and returned to his usual tone: "I am unfamiliar with this base station."
That's it.
Ying Chenlin hit the wall and a virtual screen popped up in front of him.
The string displayed in the ciphertext prompt on the permission was still the familiar algorithm. Ying Chenlin frowned slightly and used the system on the optical computer to perform calculations to get a new password.
Once the input was made, a bright light appeared on the wall. Ying Chenlin took two steps back, but suddenly noticed that the mecha key around his neck seemed to be getting hotter and hotter. He stopped his action unconsciously and could only increase his mental power output to the key.
You Su tilted his head and saw Ying Chenlin's strange behavior: "The mecha is still responding?"
"It's very strange." Ying Chenlin felt that the mecha key was a little hot. The original mental power input could suppress the heat coming from inside the key, but now this heat seemed to break through the limitations of his mental power, and the reaction was very violent.
The light on the wall sank inward, finally revealing the outline of a door, and the entire door slowly opened in front of them.
You Su frowned slightly, his eyes fixed on the crack of the door, "There's wind."
wind? Ying Chenlin suddenly felt a breeze coming out from the open door, carrying a slight warmth.
There was a sudden movement behind the door, and besides the wind, there seemed to be other sounds.
Ying Chenlin was trying to determine the direction from which the sound came when he suddenly heard a very fast sound, like a snake moving quickly forward.
"Back off!" You Su shouted angrily.
Ying Chenlin took a few steps back, but the thing in the gap between the doors in front of him was moving faster than him.
At the same time he retreated, something suddenly pounced towards him in the darkness.
At this critical moment, Ying Chenlin was suddenly pulled hard by You Su behind him, and the oncoming attack hit the wall of the narrow stairs with a bang. You Su's hands were extremely powerful. He pulled Ying Chenlin with him, avoiding the attack while quickly distanced himself from the thing.
The attack came extremely suddenly. While being pulled back several steps, Ying Chenlin pulled the energy meter in his hand to the highest value. The bright light illuminated the narrow and dark space and the things in front of him.
At this time, Ying Chenlin saw clearly what was in front of him and was stunned.
The long dark grey object glowed with an eerie cold light in the darkness. It was surrounded by all kinds of uneven metal fragments in irregular shapes. At first glance, it looked like a fusion of various mechanical metals.
The author has something to say:
Ying Songshan is the grandfather.
