Chapter 121 B22 Star Pollution Monitoring Center
"Wait here, I'll go check out the situation first." Jiang Ning retracted her perception, told the little fat man beside her, and walked forward.
She moved lightly, taking every step very carefully.
The building glass creaked under the footsteps, and the centipedes' legs were scattered all over the ground, their bodies were broken into sections.
She had just killed 30 centipedes, and the double S-level counted for 10 points each in the arena, for a total of 300 points.
Jiang Ning turned around and glanced at the crowd behind her.
It was almost over there, too.
While they were fighting against centipedes and woodlice, the scoring device on their wrists quietly increased by 25 points. It was not known whether it was from the monsters killed by Cheng Yao or Wei Shengyu.
As for their scores, they have not yet been counted into the system.
When encountering such a monster tide, scoring is always slower.
Jiang Ning continued to walk forward.
Suddenly,
she felt something wrong under her feet, and the upper of her shoes sank a little when she stepped on it.
Jiang Ning's temples jumped, and just when she wanted to evacuate.
"Swish, swish—"
There was another commotion around, and the next second, a sowbug hiding in the cracks of the rocks suddenly rushed towards Jiang Ning. She stepped back half a step to avoid it, but unexpectedly, the pile of wasteland under her feet began to collapse.
There was nothing below, and soon it affected the place where she was standing.
"Jiang Ning!" The little fat man noticed the situation here at the first time and called her loudly.
The large troops behind him also reacted quickly and rushed towards Jiang Ning.
But it was too late.
The underground collapse caused the building next to it to suffer heavy damage and then tilted to one side. Jiang Ning had no time to escape, so she could only find a nearby shelter to avoid being hit as much as possible.
The people who rushed over were stopped more than ten meters away, and watched Jiang Ning being buried in the collapsed building.
-
Jiang Ning's head was buzzing, and after an unknown amount of time, the movement around her finally stopped.
"Hiss!"
She curled up on her side, and felt a tearing pain in her back when she moved her body slightly. She hurried to check the current situation.
The surroundings were closed, and the surrounding metal and concrete slabs were stacked layer by layer, just forming a small activity space.
Fortunately, her perception barrier and the metal plate bent to one side in front of her gave her a push when the landslide occurred, otherwise she would really be buried in this ruin.
But even so, her back was still hit by the falling heavy objects.
Jiang Ning tried to use her mental power, and instantly there was a frying sound in her mind.
A group of people outside have been using the sensory connection to contact her since she was buried inside, and they kept saying something, which made her head hurt.
[I'm fine.]
Jiang Ning comforted the people outside through the sensory connection, and the chattering in her mind finally stopped. Everyone outside
breathed a sigh of relief, and after a few seconds someone finally came out and said, [Then we will move the rocks and rescue you now.]
There are several power-type psychics among them, so moving a few rocks is no problem.
[Yeah.] Jiang Ning's voice was faint, as if she was humming from her nose.
Si Yuan immediately sensed something was wrong, and he asked, "Are you injured?"
As soon as he asked this, everyone became nervous.
Jiang Ning was injured?
When did it happen, when the landslide happened just now, or when she was fighting the centipedes?
"I was accidentally hit by a rock."
Jiang Ning's tone was light, as if being hit by a rock was not a big deal.
"Hold on, we'll rescue you now."
Everyone sniffed collectively, and several power-type psychics in front began to release their powers.
"Everyone, be careful." Jiang Ning said.
It was obviously her who was buried underneath, but she spoke to remind them to be careful.
Several people began to act.
"Boom—"
Jiang Ning vaguely heard the noise outside. As several people moved, small stones fell from where she was curled up.
She didn't know how deep she was buried. She heard people moving stones one by one, but there was still no light shining in.
After a while, the noise outside suddenly stopped, as if everything was still.
Jiang Ning paused and asked through perception: [What's wrong?]
[There are more alien beasts, a lot of them, and they are all S-level.] It was Si Yuan who answered her.
Jiang Ning said without thinking: [You guys deal with the alien beasts first, don't worry about me.]
Compared with her situation, the situation outside was obviously more urgent.
Although everyone was eager to rescue Jiang Ning, they also knew that in the current situation, the best option was to focus on dealing with the aliens first.
The advantage of the cooperation training of the Wei Shengyu team in the school was fully demonstrated at this moment. Even if the two main commanders Jiang Ning and Wei Shengyu were not there, the commander of the team could still guide the rest of the people, and the team was well coordinated, and there was no panic at all.
Jiang Ning listened to the situation outside with his ears pointed, while boringly picking the cracks in the stones around him.
Strangely, the floor under his feet was really smooth, not like rock at all, but more like a metal steel plate coated with a layer of smooth paint.
She used her hand to brush away the gravel on the surface. The steel plate under her feet and the one on which her head rested were completely folded together, presenting a 90-degree bend. The two steel plates seemed to be one piece.
Jiang Ning wiped away the folds of the steel plate, and she felt a tiny gap between her fingertips.
Jiang Ning's fingertips lit up, and a tiny vine was released, probing through the tiny gap.
The vine touched something, wrapped around the object, and grew to both sides.
The vines are still growing wirelessly, as if there is a wirelessly large space behind.
Jiang Ning thought for a moment, stopped the vine in his hand, and switched to another plant.
There is still space inside the metal steel plate, which looks like a room, and the metal steel plate is its door.
It seems that the room inside has a high safety factor. Even in the face of a landslide, it will only squeeze the door outside into shape.
The door was originally opened in the middle, and she was thinking about how to get in.
If it is pushed open directly and violently, the rubble behind her will definitely roll in with her, and it is hard to guarantee that she will not be hurt again.
She needs something to hold up the rocks behind her.
Lotus leaves are the best plants to use.
It covers a wide area without completely squeezing out this narrow space.
Jiang Ning put the summoned lotus leaf on her back, and then summoned vines again to reach into the crack of the door.
She just felt something behind the door. Electric doors in the interstellar era usually have a machine paddle behind them, which is designed to prevent the door from being unusable when the power is off.
Jiang Ning carefully used the vines to turn the machine paddle at the back.
Click -
it was the sound of the paddle being turned.
Jiang Ning suddenly felt the metal plate under her feet shaking, and the broken stones jumped with it.
The gap at the fold of the door panel was getting bigger and bigger, and all the surrounding stones were shaking. Something kept hitting the lotus leaf behind her.
Snap, snap.
The lotus leaf was hit loudly.
Jiang Ning looked back. The moment the stone touched the surface of the lotus leaf, it was like falling into a piece of elastic silk cloth. After losing three or four points of its force, it bounced back to the stone wall on the side.
The lotus leaf was almost not damaged, but the stone wall that was bounced back was slightly loose.
The lotus leaf can resist ordinary small and medium-sized stones, but it is afraid that it can't resist such a large stone at all.
Jiang Ning only hoped that the door would open quickly. At
this time, the gap in the door had opened to a width of about three centimeters, and Jiang Ning could clearly see the scene inside.
The style inside was very much like a laboratory.
The movement behind was getting louder and louder, and the stone could collapse again at any time.
However, the door was suddenly stuck and could not move. Jiang Ning looked up along the edge of the door, only to find that the top of the door was pierced by several steel bars. At this time
, the steel bars were just stuck at the top of the door, making it impossible to go any further. Jiang Ning looked at the open hole and pondered for a moment. It
was about three centimeters wide, and it was barely possible to enter.
She lowered her head, exerted force on her hips, turned her body in another direction, and went down feet first.
After this series of movements, the wound on her back was pulled again. She slowed down for a while, then took a deep breath, held the door frame with both hands, and pushed her body down on her back. When
her feet touched the flat ground, she felt something real.
She jumped up lightly and moved away from the door. Before she could walk far away, she heard the sound of stones hitting metal plates behind her.
It seems that the lotus leaf can't hold on anymore.
But fortunately, it has completed its mission.
This room, which looks like a laboratory, was built with no shoddy work. The materials used for the outer wall are very strong. Even though the door panel was squeezed out of shape, it did not collapse, and there was no intrusion inside.
[Jiang Ning, are you okay? 】Si Yuan's voice was full of anxiety. He had just heard a loud noise coming from under the landslide.
Although he knew that Jiang Ning's perception was still there in his mind, and the lotus leaf she gave was intact, he couldn't help but worry about her safety.
[It's okay, I've entered a space, I'm safe now, you guys fight seriously and don't be distracted. ] Jiang Ning's message was conveyed to everyone.
She made such a big noise just now, and everyone outside would definitely notice it.
[Yeah. ] Si Yuan's voice sounded muffled.
Jiang Ning's reply didn't sound like there was anything wrong, but he just felt a sense of loss inexplicably.
Si Yuan's eyes were dark, and he pulled the lotus leaf beside him to wrap himself tighter.
On the other side.
Jiang Ning was looking around the room.
With the dim light in the room, she saw [B22 Star Pollution Monitoring Center] written on the wall.
Both the word and the pollution monitoring center looked very new, and she heard that B22 was completely polluted decades ago, so this monitoring center should have been built later.
Maybe some new circumstances broke out later, causing this monitoring center to be abandoned.
She groped around the hall of the testing center.
The further she went in, the darker it was.
She could only release a sensory light group to barely illuminate.
With the faint light, she finally saw the pollution monitoring center clearly.
In the middle is a huge data collection device, and along a circle are measurement screens.
The power is out here, and the screens and devices have stopped running.
At the end of the hall is a dark corridor, and Jiang Ning couldn't get out for a while, so she groped her way over there.
Jiang Ning walked in the dark corridor, in the air that blended with the darkness, she always felt that something would suddenly pop out.
It turns out that this place shouldn't make people feel scared when there are lights on.
Fortunately, the corridor is not long, and a distance of more than ten meters leads to another room.
Swish -
as soon as she walked out of the corridor, a dark shadow flashed out.
Jiang Ning frowned and instinctively raised her hand to launch an attack. By the time she reacted, the shadow had already run in the other direction of the room.
Only a white corner of the clothes was left for her.
What was that?
Jiang Ning quickly followed.
