Wasteland Development Diary.

Chapter 130 Congratulations on Your Fortune

Zhou Yi took the Emerald City and arrived outside Shagang City again.

He bypassed the city and came to a hilly area in the northeast. The mountains here were stacked up like solidified waves.

There are many stone pestles built at the foot of the mountain, on which are placed human skulls smeared with blood, the warning meaning is very obvious.

Mr. Sha Hai stood in front of one of the stone pestles and said, "Mr. Zhou, if you go further in, you'll be close to that place. In the past, some residents went to the mountains here to pick up branches and mushrooms, but they accidentally ran into that alien place and never came back."

The sea lord said solemnly, "I once led the guards to conduct a thorough search and found a hole in the ground ahead, which was connected to the Dead Sea Alien underground."

Following its guidance, the Emerald City went around the hillside to the back, where there was an area blocked by many large rocks, which were also covered with purple-brown blood.

"It's this place. I sent two groups of guards down there, including D-level Thornbirds and Howler Frogs, but neither of them ever came back."

"Later, I had no choice but to close this place completely."

"In fact, I've been there twice. It's a bit creepy, and there are some strange noises. I can't describe it, but it gives me a feeling of extreme danger..."

According to Sha Haigong, there was no hole here originally, and this gap was revealed after a year of continuous rainfall and landslides. At first, some people sneaked in, thinking there were treasures inside, but after these people disappeared, no one dared to approach here anymore.

The Emerald City dug up the sealing stones and found a dark hole underneath with wind blowing out.

Its steel arms reached inside and soon reached the end.

According to feedback, it is only 14 meters deep.

At the innermost part is a square, semi-enclosed hut embedded in the mountain.

We have to conduct on-site investigation to find out more.

This time Zhou Yi decided to go down alone.

When facing architectural life, the Kestrel and the Chimpanzee are useless, and may even be in danger if certain mechanisms are triggered.

Zhou Yi asked them all to stay outside, and the Red Falcon acted according to the actual situation and kept an eye on the Duke of Sand Sea in the Emerald City.

"I'll go down for a walk."

Zhou Yi said to Lord Sha Hai, "If everything goes well, I'll be back soon."

Lord Shahai simply said, "Mr. Zhou, please be careful."

……

Walking all the way inside the cave, Zhou Yi switched to Unit 2 mode.

Although the two consecutive life attacks had consumed a lot of energy, now a month has passed and Xiaofu has recovered to 6 health points, so he can also resist.

The steel bars of the Emerald City extend all the way deep into the cave. These metal bars are glowing and illuminating, so the vision inside the cave is not bad.

At the end is a box-type iron house with a severely rusted surface and many dents and curled iron sheets.

The gate had been opened, and the end of the Emerald City's metal exoskeleton was inside.

Zhou Yi walked in.

There was no furniture in the room, and there were a few diamond-shaped stones in the corner that no longer glowed, which were undoubtedly brought in by outsiders.

The room was filled with a damp, iron smell.

There was also a very slight sound, but the volume was so small that it was impossible to tell whether it was the sound of water or wind.

There was also a closed door on the inner wall of the cabin.

Zhou Yi first looked at the iron window on the wall, but the window was completely welded shut with iron plates, leaving no view at all.

He pressed his hands against the cold, rusty iron wall again.

Energy, input.

However, the output energy is simply dissipated and not received.

This tin house is not a building of life.

Then the problem may be behind another door.

Zhou Yi adjusted his pace, came to the door and observed it for a while.

He twisted the iron door handle. The rust caused the mechanical structure to be not smooth at all, but it was still able to turn it with great force. However, there seemed to be something behind the door, so it was a bit difficult to push it open.

Zhou Yi twisted the handle, lowered his shoulders and bumped it, gradually gaining strength.

Bang, bang, bang!

It doesn't sound like that end is a dead end, there's space.

He increased his strength further.

The deformed iron door clanged violently and opened with a sharp creaking sound. Two large stones at the back were also pushed out, which had been against the back of the door before.

Outside the door was a dark passage.

Zhou Yi pulled the steel bar next to him, indicating that the Emerald City should extend forward.

So Zhou Yi groped forward under this glowing metal exoskeleton. But this time the road was very long and it twisted downwards. The Emerald City stretched its arms to the limit, but still did not reach the area where the underground aliens were.

Zhou Yi could only go down alone.

He calculated his steps, and after turning two corners, the surroundings suddenly became brighter and brighter.

Zhou Yi found himself standing at the entrance of a shopping mall.

There is a large blue billboard in front with Walmart printed in white, and there is a one-way sensor door at the entrance.

A familiar music came to my ears.

"Congratulations on your fortune

I congratulate you on your wonderful
The best please come

bad please go away
Oh, the more gifts, the better…” It turned out to be an underground Wal-Mart?
Zhou Yi was not particularly happy at this moment, but felt even more weird.

This is a supermarket, so why would someone disappear here? Could it be that this supermarket won't let you leave unless you make a purchase?
Zhou Yi touched his pocket.

Fortunately, I brought a light box with me.

It's always a good idea to bring some money with you when you go out.

He decided to wait and see.

Zhou Yi put his hand on the wall at the door, and this time the energy input was successful.

“Are you a mall?”

"Yes, welcome."

The voice on the other end was a gentle young female voice.

This is how shopping malls work.

Zhou Yi asked: "Some humans and light-type lifeforms came in before, are they still inside?"

“If you mean previous customers, they did come, but after they made their purchases they left.”

A picture emerged in Zhou Yi's mind.

Human explorers and light nano creatures came here cautiously, then lost themselves in Dehua's repeated "Congratulations on your fortune", and inexplicably picked up shopping bags, pushed carts, and started their shopping trip.

As for where these people went, the mall said it didn't know.

Now that you have come, you have come.

Zhou Yi also dragged a stainless steel cart from the door and entered through the one-way door.

He was very familiar with the inside, having visited many Walmarts in the past.

There were many commodities on display racks and shelves, and the cartons and packaging bags were covered with a layer of film. However, the numbers on the price signs had changed, and the RMB behind them had turned into floating light seeds.

But the prices here are really not cheap.

Oreo 2.79-pack delicacy gift pack, only.

Lays potato chips gift box, 2.29 only.

Coke 2L, 0.69 light seeds.

……

Zhou Yi looked at the merchandise around him and said, "I want to buy you. Give me a price."

"Sorry, this is not for sale."

“Can’t the mall just be purchased as a whole?”

"Sorry, this is not for sale."

The other party just answered with the same words as if some kind of mechanism had been triggered.

Zhou Yi couldn't help but feel surprised, so he changed the subject: "Did the previous customers buy anything?"

"Sorry, it's about customer privacy and I can't disclose it."

Okay.

Zhou Yi continued walking down and found that the mall had two floors. The first floor was for food and daily necessities, and the second floor was filled with various electrical appliances, tools, outdoor items, etc.

The entire mall was bright and clean, with all goods available, but it was empty, which seemed a bit eerie amid the festive music that continued to play.

Zhou Yi walked all the way to the exit of the second floor.

If the person before entered here and did not return by the same route, they could only have left through this opening.

He looked up and saw that it was pitch black outside, as if he had returned to the new underground passage.

"What's out there?"

The mall said: "Sorry, please check the situation outside on your own. Welcome to Walmart."

Zhou Yi looked back at the bright mall, put down the cart, and decided to continue exploring.

There's something wrong with this Walmart.

Located underground where it is difficult to collect death rays, how does it stay fully energized?
Zhou Yi took a step out of the one-way door.

The scene outside suddenly changed.

He found himself in a long corridor with old-fashioned brown square tiles on the floor. On both sides of the corridor were green iron gates, each with a number marked on it.

Suddenly, a group of figures appeared in the distance ahead, rushing towards us with great momentum.

The voice in my ear suddenly changed.

"Let's forget about right and wrong and cherish the past

There is always joy in going through hard times together
If you don’t believe it, you will despair and feel no hesitation…”

Depend on!
How did it become "Years of Friendship".

Zhou Yi felt something was wrong for a moment.

However, the current situation did not allow him to think too much. Because each of the newcomers was emitting green light, which meant that they were all C-level life forms, and if they were in large numbers, they would be a threat to him.

There is no door at the back, it's a complete dead end.

Zhou Yi raised his fists, ready to fight.
