"Humans?"
Linnaeus thought he had misheard.
How could there be humans in such a desolate place?
Night pointed in a direction: "It's over there, only about three kilometers away!"
Lin Nai pondered, "Is that so... Alright, let's go take a look together and see who this mysterious person is, appearing in a place like this..."
......
The two drove for about three kilometers.
Along the way, all we saw were still deserts and rift valleys.
It's somewhat like Ancheng after its destruction.
However, this place is even more desolate than Ancheng. Even in Ancheng, at least you can see the sun, moon, and stars in the sky. Here, apart from the barrenness, you can't even see a ghost overhead. It's pitch black everywhere, and you can only rely on the streetlights of cars for illumination.
"Brother Linnai, look!" Ye Wan'er suddenly pointed ahead.
Upon hearing this, Lin Nai looked ahead and his eyes widened in surprise.
Below the hill was a huge building that resembled a factory, with visible chimneys, vents, drainage systems, and some huge gears and steam turbines turning with a "rumbling" sound.
Without a doubt, this factory is clearly a product of human civilization and technological development!
It's unbelievable that someone actually built a factory in such a harsh and alien environment!
Lin Nai originally thought that the method to enter this otherworld was only in the hands of Lieutenant Li.
But now it seems there must be others who know how to enter this world.
Lin Nai immediately stopped the car and got out with Ye Wan'er.
"Don't make a sound yet, sneak in and see what's going on inside," Lin Nai said to Ye Wan'er.
He was very curious to know what kind of person the owner of this factory was.
Night nodded: "Mm!"
The two quickly infiltrated the factory.
This factory looks quite old-fashioned from the outside, and it even uses some steam-powered machinery.
After Linna and Ye'er sneaked in through the ventilation duct, they arrived at a workshop.
The source of the factory's electricity is unknown, but the entire factory operates fully automatically. Various machines are automatically assembled according to pre-set programs and then sent to the next workshop, repeating this process continuously with extremely high efficiency.
However, there wasn't a single person in this huge factory.
Linnaeus originally wanted to try hacking into the factory's computer network to check the factory's surveillance equipment.
However, he was embarrassed to discover that the factory had no internet access at all...
A hacker with superpowers, in theory, can hack into any device connected to a network.
However, devices without a network connection will naturally not work.
Linnaeus did not find any surveillance cameras here.
That's true. Normally, no outsiders would come here at all, so installing surveillance cameras would be completely unnecessary.
Lin Nai looked at the automated machinery in the workshop and asked, "Wan'er, can you tell what these assembled machines are?"
After observing it carefully at night, he said, "It should be some kind of weapon parts and accessories."
Linnaeus: "Weapons?"
At night, he raised his hand and made a grasping motion in the air.
An assembled machine immediately flew into her hands.
“Look at this.” Nightfall unscrewed the machine’s screws: “This looks like the internal energy accumulator of the Soul Energy Cannon. It’s installed in the cannon barrel and can increase the power of the stored energy.”
"So, this is an arms factory that manufactures weapons of war?" Linna pondered.
After putting the things back, Ye'er said, "Brother Lin Nai, let's go look at other places."
Linnaeus nodded.
The two walked around the factory again, but still didn't see anyone.
This factory is huge, with one machine workshop after another connected together, it's like a maze.
If someone says there are people here at night, then there must be.
Finally, Linnai lost his patience and activated the Gray Eyes, using his special vision to scan the entire factory from all sides.
“There really is someone…” Lin Nai’s silver-gray eyes narrowed slightly.
Within the vision of his Gray Eyes, he quickly spotted a human soul in this vast factory.
However, upon seeing the human soul, Linnai's pupils suddenly contracted, revealing a look of horror and shock.
Near that human soul, there are tens of thousands... no, nearly a hundred thousand souls!
These souls were packed so close together, like 100,000 ants crammed into a small box. They were so densely packed that it was terrifying!
"Holy crap..."
"What the hell is going on?"
Linnai was stunned.
Even the Sea of the Dead doesn't have this dense concentration of souls!
In other words, there is far more than one person in this place!
"Brother Linnai, what did you find out?" Ye Wan'er asked curiously when she saw Linnai's expression.
“Something’s not right…” Lin Nai said gravely, “Wan’er, are you sure you only sensed one life response just now?”
Night paused slightly, then closed her eyes again to sense it.
Opening her eyes again, the girl said, "There was indeed only one vital sign."
Linnaeus: "..."
Night: "Brother Linnai, what exactly happened?"
"...It's nothing." At this moment, Lin Nai seemed to have suddenly guessed something.
