【Summer Five】Iron City Wall

"Immediately control the discharge of heat sources!" "Close all the gates, how much energy is lost?" "No, I don't know, the inner and outer walls are completely damaged, and the ground is complicated. Going in rashly will only cause a secondary explosion..."

The huge body of the fantasy species was pressed against the center of the city wall, more than half of the reinforced concrete collapsed, the four furnaces were crashed at the same time, and the heating device placed inside slowly went on strike.Electric sparks erupted between the ruined walls, and the stagnant water seeping out of the condenser pipes contacted the electric current, causing several chain explosions in a blink of an eye.

The army evacuated urgently and immediately issued an order to repair the damaged furnace with all its strength.It was a cold winter, and although there was no abnormality for a while, as long as half a day passed, the consequences of lacking one-fifth of the heating supply would spread rapidly, causing the city walls to suffer severe cold comparable to natural disasters.

"The maintenance personnel can't come so fast." The liaison officer reported to Mordrian while wiping cold sweat, "Besides, the corpse of the phantom species blocked the main entrance, and the other side entrances were also affected by the collapse. Even if the technicians arrived, it would take a while Familiarize yourself with the internal environment, and then find a suitable location to open the hole."

Mordrian stood on the intact city wall, his eyebrows almost wrinkled into the word "Chuan".He was extremely dissatisfied with the efficiency of the engineering team, but he couldn't think of a better way at this moment—from shooting down the behemoth to the present, the army that was still immersed in the joy of victory was immediately poured with a bucket of cold water. With the words "survival of human beings" written in big words, he was still dazed about everything he did.

Therefore, like most people, the old general can only cast his hopeful eyes on Wutiao, hoping that this magical major general can come up with a solution.

Wu Tiao just came down from Swift, listening to Xia You's deployment of support, and judging the situation from the few words he said.As the leader of the rebel army, Subaru once completely controlled several furnaces to confront the army. At this moment, such a taboo technology is used to save the iron city wall, and he doesn't know whether to be annoyed or laugh.

"I can close the air valve in time from the intranet, and the loss is still within control." Xia You almost knocked out the keyboard, "But the No. 13 furnace-it probably damaged the central LAN, no matter where it is Can't connect anyway."

He continued to work and put in place remote control safety measures.Wujo saw Mordrian waving for him, so he walked over and said, "Don't always think about relying on me, isn't the purpose of the re-election just to make everyone self-sufficient? Maybe someday I won't be able to help you guys. You have to find another savior, and if something goes wrong, you can count on him to solve it every day?"

Mordrian was unable to refute the accusation that covered his head and face.But he also knows that the current system has just been reformed, and too many government transfers have not yet been implemented. Both the parliament and the army need a longer running-in period.Therefore, facing the five slightly cold gazes, the old general said: "I believe you can distinguish between priorities and understand why we need to rely on you. The most important thing right now is the furnace crisis. As long as you can get through the winter smoothly, no matter what you do next." It doesn't matter how much you want to torment."

He said that, Wujo didn't bother to waste time, and said: "My professor friend is already working on stopping the loss. He can block the air valve through Walden Pond. If you are afraid of serial explosions and dare not enter, I will also Let him cut off all the power inside the furnace in advance. Manpower, what is needed most now is someone who understands the furnace; find as many as you can."

The cold wind blew through the winter clothes, and the five claws were thrown downwards, and they jumped and dived to the ground.He didn't remove the protection, the golden driving armor protected his half body, which increased the upper limit of the force on the waist and abdomen, which can fully disperse the burden brought by the steel cables and gas.

Thick smoke billowed from the ground, and the ground in District 13 near the No.16 to No.[-] furnaces was in a mess, with collapsed houses and factories everywhere.The chimney was smashed, and the people who had been evacuated earlier stood cautiously on the periphery of the disaster area, trying to look at the furnaces covered in black smoke.

Wutiao went straight to the NO.13 melting furnace, shuttled between the eaves with the claws, and landed lightly.

"The main entrance was smashed by the belly of the phantom species." He reported back to Xia You, "It really is the one that was hit hardest." When he got close, he could even feel the huge heat source that was constantly escaping from the surface.

The collapsed buildings make it very difficult to move forward. Even if you move forward rashly, you will fall into the stagnant water that you don't know whether it is charged or not.Wujo observed for a while, and soon heard the bell of the police car of the engineering team behind him.

"How?" He said to Xia You, "I can scan the load-bearing object closest to the surface frame, and there is no risk of collapse for the time being. Maybe I can melt the wall directly into it."

The drive armor at the waist has been transferred to the hand while speaking, the charging plug gradually lights up, and the blue light illuminates the five calm cheeks.He looked coldly at the crowd gathered in the outer circle. The cold-proof clothes were still dripping blood, and soon merged with the deep and shallow water, and precipitated a brown-red color.Those people bowed their heads and dispersed, making room for the engineering team to park.

At this moment, Xiayou had squeezed out the time to shut down all the electrification equipment in the NO.13 furnace, and said to Wu Tiao: "This is the only way. Existing scanners can only roughly detect external deformation, and deeper I'm afraid it will take a while for the three-dimensional structure."

"But the airlock of No. 13 furnace can't wait that long." Wutiao understood.

"Yes, so we can only venture in."

The last sentence was almost drilled out from the back of his head.Wutiao turned around subconsciously, and saw a very familiar person among the engineering team members who got off the car one after another.He strode forward, grabbed Xia You's collar and looked it up and down, before asking in surprise, "What are you doing here?"

They were standing next to the water pump of the engineering team, their voices were completely covered by the roaring instruments, and the five were almost shouted out.Xia You pulled him closer, and explained with his ears: "It's your job to kill phantom species, isn't it repairing the furnace? Besides, the situation is urgent now, and I'm worried that you can't handle it by yourself, so I came here to take a look."

With the straightforward "I'm worried about you", Wutiao was immediately convinced.He took off his winter clothes, and wrapped his arms around Xia You's neck and said to him, "I didn't expect that the interspecies war didn't cause much trouble, but in the end, this mutant made a big mess."

"Any clues? As to why there are such creatures that defy scientific common sense."

"I don't believe you didn't think of anything." Wutiao jumped to the left, avoiding a stream of sewage, "The extract of the two-faced Su Nuo—if this war really stems from the unsealing of this thing, then one or two ends will ingest it It’s not surprising that the phantasy species that passed the extraction fluid suddenly mutated.”

During the conversation, the water pump kept rumbling. The person in charge of the engineering team only saw the well-known Major General Ye Xiao hugging a black-haired young man. He didn't know what they were talking about. Both of them had faint smiles meaning.

After the operation is completed, all the condensed water on the outer surface has been cleaned up, and the engineering team plans to send a team to investigate whether there are any cracks that can enter the furnace.Wujo let go of the summer oil, walked in front of these people in a few strides, pulled out a fully powered driver rifle and aimed it at the front wall of the furnace, and pulled the trigger.

"Leave." Facing the factory that had been blasted open suddenly, Wujo Chaoxiayou waved, and the latter immediately followed, and the two of them got into the inside of the furnace together.The engineering team, who was not mentally prepared at all, was stunned. They were amazed at the seemingly rough blasting point that bypassed all the circuit tubes, and walked in while shaking their heads.

As soon as the team leader stepped forward, he heard an order to "observe the situation outside first" from the pipe wall.Wutiao even stomped his feet a few times to signal him to do so.Not daring to disobey the orders of their superiors, the team leader had no choice but to withdraw from the furnace with the engineering team and conduct external inspections in a safe area.

Inside the furnace, the five former Yu Xiayou stood one by one, and military flashlights illuminated every corner along the way, trying to avoid all cables and pipes that were exposed due to the collapse.After the power was cut off, the furnace was almost a black ruin. The further you walked in, the more you couldn't see your fingers. The only sounds in your ears were the sound of footsteps and the irregular dripping of condensate.

"The faulty valve is on the basement floor, but the terrain of the entire area has been squeezed and deformed." Xia You said softly, avoiding a second landslide. "What can your eyepiece scan?"

Wujo happened to be looking at the screen of the tactical eyepiece: "The foundation is raised due to the extrusion on both sides... The basement floor should be at a level similar to our current position. Unfortunately, there are too many broken brackets wrapped around it, making it impossible to identify the path."

Different from the outside, the structure of the furnace is quite delicate from the foundation, especially in the case of not knowing the specific damage area, if you flip or blast it at will, you will only put yourself in the most unfavorable state.

"We might as well find the main control room first." Xia You touched the wall, rubbed it lightly with his fingertips, and paid attention to the humidity inside the factory, "There should be a lot of well-preserved materials there, and the roads extend in all directions, which is better than going directly to the valve. Much easier to find."

The soles of the shoes stepped on the cracked floor, and new cracks slowly grew with each step.Gojo tried to walk as lightly as possible, and put all the armaments except the driven armor into the compressed cube, reducing all the load that might be brought to the bottom building.They groped forward, and the temperature in the furnace, which should have gradually risen, was also unusually low, as if all the heat was concentrated elsewhere.

The primary purpose is to close the gate, and then make corrections to the specific damaged facilities that affect stability—Xiayou carries the necessary toolbox for the engineering team with him, and often uses warning pens to leave fluorescent marks on broken water pipes or fences to prevent terrain After shifting again, the two could not return from the original road.

"It's this door." Wujo stopped slowly, and tapped the twisted and broken electronic lock with a flashlight.Xia You leaned forward, took out the iron wire and pliers from the tool bag, reached into the keyhole and fiddled a few times, and opened it with a "click".The lock was opened, but Xia You, who pushed the door with normal strength, was stuck in place by the obvious stagnation, and couldn't open the door for a long time.

The deformed door frame mingled with the surrounding pipes, and Wu Tiao let out a "hum" from his nose. Under Xia You's helpless gaze, he reached out to the door panel, and the drive armor suddenly exerted force-the bearing vibrated, and the overwhelmed door panel creaked. It wobbled and fell inward.

After crossing the threshold, the intact main control room came into view.Similar to other furnace factories, there are internal networks, monitoring heads and electronic information databases connecting the entire factory, and a dozen doors around the wall can easily lead to any direction.Xia You took a special look into the thermostat cabinet, and unexpectedly found several boxes of emergency food and medicine.

"If you're lucky, it should be this door." Wutiao stopped in front of the north-facing iron gate, put his index finger on the keyhole.Xia You carefully observed the connection between the door frame and the inner and outer walls, estimated that the damage was not deep, and nodded to Wutiao.The latter exerted his strength again and easily shook the door open, revealing the long corridor behind him.

Comparing the floor plan, as long as you walk through the chapped aisle, you can find the target air valve behind it.
