Apocalypse: I Build A Doomsday Train-Chapter 808 - 349: Right Here!

"Brother Lin~" Lu Xingchen said at this moment, "If there’s no other way, why don’t we destroy this place? If we cut the power, won’t it stop the external cleaning command..."

"No way."

Before he finished speaking, KIKI interrupted him, "We don’t know what exactly the cleaning device is. What if it’s a standalone device that only needs a remote signal to activate?"

Lu Xingchen closed his mouth upon hearing this.

At this time, everyone reached a place resembling a central hall. The lights were bright, but it was dead silent with no one around. In the holographic images, dozens of drones appeared in Lin Xian’s view through the scan images calculated by Grace. Underneath the research institute, aside from that transport hangar and the morgue, there were hundreds of various classified laboratories, but oddly enough, there was no main control room found in this vast underground base, which made Lin Xian find it strange.

"Grace, where is the system’s main control integrated?"

[Each classified experimental area has its own control room, but within the control units, there’s no main control room or similar integration center.]

"Strange..." Qian Suxun spoke up, "For Deep Red World to coordinate the entire laboratory, it can’t be controlled by separate regions. It’s not logical from an automation design perspective, unless they also have a Deep Red No. 3 type intelligent robot overseeing the overall control here."

"Xun is right, but there’s another possibility."

Mochizuki Masashi said at this time, "In such a special research institute, to prevent external invasion or capture of critical backup data, there might be an invisible system independent of all other systems. This system may disconnect from the base when threatened, for one-way control, commonly known as..."

"Secret room."

Qian Suxun nodded upon hearing this, "It seems very likely to be the case, but this place is too large."

After speaking, he looked at Grace, "Deep Red No. 3, can you find any clues from the information bodies just now?"

[I have searched, but found no such settings.]

"Those replicants only understand their own work areas. Except for the Dark Erosion Cells, they have limited research data, after all, he’s just one of many researchers." Lin Xian frowned as he looked back at the countless passages resembling cages in the laboratories, "This kind of information surely has nothing to do with these replicants."

"Then what do we do?" KIKI checked the time. Tide had already passed for 25 minutes, and outside, Chen Sixuan and Ning Jing were still engaged in fierce battles with the Abnormal Bodies. Their time was running out.

Lin Xian, his gaze resolute, immediately stepped out, solemnly saying,

"We can only use the dumbest method now."

With that, he directly stood in the center of the central hall, hands down, the Mechanical Heart at maximum power, beginning the Mechanical Scan!

Even though this consumed a significant amount of energy for Lin Xian, he now mastered remote scanning. As his domain quickly expanded, the massive circuits and building structures of the entire base began to construct and generate rapidly around him like a hologram.

Pipes, lines, tracks, vents, data junctions, information stations, experimental instruments, lighting, along with the ground steel structures, elevators, passages... 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

The face of Deep Red World’s underground secret base began to manifest flawlessly in Lin Xian’s mind.

The straight expansion instantly caused Lin Xian’s energy consumption to soar vertically. Cold sweat poured from his entire body in a whoosh, but at this point, there was no other way out. He could only grit his teeth and persist.

But as his energy got heavily consumed, the mad darkness invaded him—the Power of Fear gradually seized his reason. He felt as if he was falling into an ice cave, even the bright lights dimmed, and bodies of several team members beside him twisted continuously, countless terrifying and desperate scenes crazily assaulted before him.

At this moment, a powerful surge of energy suddenly rushed into his body, instantly dispelling most of the Power of Fear. Simultaneously, Lin Xian felt a warm sensation, even his mind began to clear.

Shi Zhi!

Upon noticing Lin Xian’s change, this girl immediately took action, focusing all her Purification Ability on Lin Xian, aiding him in performing the Mechanical Scan.

With this power’s assistance, Lin Xian felt like he was being charged by energy converted from a Heterogeneous Rubik’s Cube, and the expansion of the Mechanical Scan began to accelerate. It was then that he finally discovered a special area.

This area was at the very bottom of the multi-level secret research institute. Countless cables linked a solid bunker of about 200 square meters, yet these cables weren’t powered. In one of the laboratories there, a hidden elevator led straight down.

"Found it!"

As soon as he spoke, Lin Xian immediately retracted the Mechanical Scan, took the group by elevator all the way to the lowest experimental area, arriving outside a laboratory labeled A1, prompting Grace to operate and open the automatic door.

At this point, Lin Xian rushed in directly, his mechanical superpower activated quietly, triggering a hidden switch. Instantly, the original metal wall slowly opened, revealing a small elevator.

This elevator appeared very small, making it rather cramped for several people to stand inside. For caution’s sake, Lin Xian let Grace’s Gemini go down first. After they took over the control of the main control room system, they would go down.

Sure enough, after Grace completed the takeover, Lin Xian and the others took the small elevator down to discover that below was a main control room filled with numerous control cabinets. Yet the stranger part was here—in this control room cluttered with various cables and cabinets, they found a living area.
