Chapter 316 Decomposition
The power system of the base has been closed. Gu Yu shines the passage behind the door with a flashlight. The automatic door is stuck for some reason. We bent over and pass under the door.&1t;/p>
Luo Luo guides us. Ground buildings are the scope of activities of survivors. Every place here is known to him.&1t;/p>
Through the empty corridor, "he" took us directly to the exclusive passage of the underground restricted area. There were once military personnel guarding it, but now the door was wide open.&1t;/p>
"Lead the way, we will take you back to your room first." Gu Yu glanced at the open security door and turned to Luo Luo and said.&1t;/p>
After entering the exclusive passage, Luo Luo couldn't help. Gu Yu asked "he" to go back to his room first. Since he had saved "he" there, it should be relatively safer.&1t;/p>
Luo Luo did not object, and "he" could not help with us, so he turned around and took us into another passage.&1t;/p>
The survivor's living area is messy, with dark corridors and thin door panels, which look like a cheap apartment. I guess the base has temporarily opened up a certain site and built a large dormitory with 10 double-layer iron beds.&1t;/p>
The layout here is the same as the underground, with a back-shaped corridor, with rooms on both sides of the survivors. Luo Luo's footsteps stopped at the corner of the corridor leading to 3b to 3c.&1t;/p>
"It's my room, you guys go underground to get things." Luo Luo turned around and drove us away.&1t;/p>
"We'd better watch you enter the house." Gu Yu said.&1t;/p>
"You only have a few steps away. Have you seen that door? Go quickly, we can't stay here for too long."&1t;/p>
"We want to ensure your safety." Gu Yu is not someone who can beat him in just a few words.&1t;/p>
Luo Luo glared at Gu Yu and walked quickly to his room. We stood at the turn of the corridor and looked at the room he pointed to. The door was closed and there were no abnormal creatures nearby.&1t;/p>
Seeing that we were worried, he walked two steps and pushed the door into the room. Then his voice came out: "Look, I'm fine, there's nothing else in the room."&1t;/p>
After waiting for a few seconds, "he" was still talking, Gu Yu and I turned around and left the corridor.&1t;/p>
Back at the entrance of the restricted area, I grabbed Gu Yu: "Wait, there is something wrong."&1t;/p>
Gu Yu's flashlight swept to the end of the channel, and I shook my head: "It's not this, it's below, there is a brain wave below, but..."&1t;/p>
"What's the problem?"&1t;/p>
"This brain wave is abnormal, it's too big."&1t;/p>
The size of the brain determines the range of brain wave activity. It is impossible for brain waves to come out of this range. No matter how big a whale's head is, its brain wave activity will not break through the limitations of the skull.&1t;/p>
What I searched for was a 'big mage' brain wave. It was too big, almost one hundred square meters, and I couldn't think of a creature with such a big head on the ground.&1t;/p>
Gu Yu asked me: "Which layer?"&1t;/p>
I recalled the height of the underground corridor in the video, and multiplied it by 2, "below the experimental area."&1t;/p>
In other words, the base has more than three floors, in addition to the ground and two underground floors, there is also an area.&1t;/p>
Of course, this area may have been dug out by the ‘Big Mac’ himself. What is it? It is still impossible to determine at present.&1t;/p>
"Can you subdue it?" Gu Yu walked to the elevator at the end of the passage. There were no stairs here, so he could only take the elevator. However, the power was out of stock, so we needed to pry open the outer elevator door and climb down the shaft.&1t;/p>
"As long as there is a brain, it's okay. Let's move gently, it should be dormant." To wake it up, we have to take the original plant of im. If the survivor is still alive, we must also consider his safety.&1t;/p>
"Go to the second floor first." Gu Yu pried open the elevator door. After the power outage, the electronic lock failed. If you pry the door directly, you won't touch the alarm.&1t;/p>
The elevator box is not parked on this floor. If the date of the last video is also the "termination date" of all living things on this base, the elevator box should still be in the experimental area.&1t;/p>
We slid along the wire rope to the second floor. The video said that there is an arsenal of this floor and there may be survivors. So Gu Yu and I decided to search for this floor first.&1t;/p>
This floor is where the army supplies are stored, and there are various material warehouses. No wonder the young people in the video think there are survivors here.&1t;/p>
Although I didn't search for brain waves on this floor, in case of precautions, we checked every closed room. The door of the arsenal was the tightest. Gu Yu destroyed the door lock. We went in and walked around and found only a few pools of unknown liquid after drying out.&1t;/p>
Gu Yu confirmed through some traces that someone was trapped here before, but he didn't know how these people disappeared.&1t;/p>
He used the word 'disappear' instead of leaving, because he said that once the door is closed, it can only be opened from the outside.&1t;/p>
It is normal for people to panic when they are extremely frightened. The blame is for those who escape in, why are there no corpse?&1t;/p>
The same is true for several other warehouses locked from the inside. The warehouse door was locked from the inside, and some even had something behind the door. Obviously, the people who hid in at that time were afraid that something outside would go in.&1t;/p>
But the door has not been opened, and there is not a single person in the warehouse. Even if the body is rotten thoroughly, there should be a few items left in the clothes and personal belongings.&1t;/p>
"Dear, they won't travel together, right?"&1t;/p>
"The reality is probably because of vaporization."&1t;/p>
"Your idea is also very sci-fi~"&1t;/p>
"Shh!"&1t;/p>
Gu Yu stopped, turned off the flashlight, he pressed my shoulder, signaling me to listen to the movements around him.&1t;/p>
Apart from the "Big Mac" brain wave and the three of us, I can't sense any other living creatures in the base.&1t;/p>
At this moment, we were both standing in front of the elevator door and preparing to continue moving to the next floor. When the silence was everywhere, a slight sound came out of the elevator shaft. The sound was very weak. As long as we opened our mouths, it would be covered by our voices.&1t;/p>
Hey…hey…&1t;/p>
The sound sounded like the stretching sound when the steel rope was pulled, and something climbed up along the elevator wire rope!&1t;/p>
Gu Yu and I both climb the rope louder than this. Either the person who comes can be light-working, or they are very light in weight, which is as light as the minimum standard for adults.&1t;/p>
Maybe it's a child? There are children among the survivors, but children without brain waves definitely need to be more careful.&1t;/p>
But adults can't survive here. Is it possible for children to survive?&1t;/p>
The black shadow that captured the young man flashed through my mind, and I stuck it to Gu Yu's ear and said softly: "Black shadow."&1t;/p>
Gu Yu shook his head, and I immediately thought of the degree of the black shadow. If it was the black shadow to ambush us, its degree would not be so slow.&1t;/p>
This sound has intervals, as if the person holding the wire rope will stop and rest for two seconds every time he moves upward.&1t;/p>
Gu Yu made a preparatory gesture at me and told me that he was going to take action. I nodded and hid on both sides of the elevator door with him. He covered the shaft with air and covered the things below.&1t;/p>
Bang bang—&1t;/p>
Gu Yu's superpower stimulated the things below, and the other party was hitting the air cover, while Gu Yu continued to shrink the volume of the air cover and moved it to a position that was level with the elevator door.&1t;/p>
I thought that what appeared in front of me would be humans, zombies, or strange creatures, but I didn't expect it would be an orangutan, yes, a chimpanzee.&1t;/p>
It stands upright less than one meter high, and it looks like a cub, and it is very weak, and the force of hitting the air cover is getting smaller and smaller.&1t;/p>
"Where did the orangutan come from?" Several possibilities flashed through my mind, but they were eliminated one by one. The base building is still quite solid, and the orangutan is not a pangolin. It is impossible for it to dig a hole in it.&1t;/p>
"Experience." Gu Yu gave me the answer that is most realistic.&1t;/p>
The snow-capped mountain base has carried out a series of experiments before the end of the world, including animal experiments, and this orangutan is most likely one of the animals used to do the experiments.&1t;/p>
"How did it survive? It's impossible." The survivors guarding the food and arsenal have steamed on earth. A chimpanzee cub cannot survive alone. Most importantly, it has no brain waves.&1t;/p>
"Look at its eyes." Gu Yu reminded him and turned on the flashlight and shot the orangutan's eyes directly with the flashlight.&1t;/p>
Although the orangutan cub's eyes were open, their eyes were straight, and their pupils did not respond to the stimulation of strong light, but for some reason, they retained their faint breathing.&1t;/p>
The respiratory center is located in the brain stem. No brain waves indicate that its brain has died. In this case, it cannot still breathe.&1t;/p>
I whispered to Gu Yu, who pointed to its chest and belly, "Maybe there are parasites."&1t;/p>
I immediately understood what he meant. If there was another living creature in the orangutan's body, then the "breathing" we saw might be just that kind of creature moves in its body.&1t;/p>
I still remember the story of Princess Dan. The parasites in her belly were brought out by bandits from the snow-capped mountain base. God knows how many similar parasites there are.&1t;/p>
Gu Yu took the air in the air cover and wanted to verify his guess. Sure enough, lack of oxygen did not cause any discomfort reactions from the chimpanzees.&1t;/p>
Although some insects do not have a respiratory system, they still need oxygen. However, the organ that absorbs oxygen is the skin. If the host suffocates, it will also cut off the medium for their absorption of oxygen. So Gu Yu and I waited for a while.&1t;/p>
After waiting for about ten minutes, the orangutan began to breathe rapidly, and the frequency of chest and stomach agitation increased. We know that Gu Yu's method worked.&1t;/p>
To be honest, I don't feel strange about anything that comes out of the orangutan's belly, so when a stream of white brain water flows out of its nostrils, ears and eyes, I don't feel surprised at all.&1t;/p>
"This is the thing in the video." I looked at the brains squirming on the ground and gradually gathered together.&1t;/p>
"The air cover is effective for it." Gu Yu also stared at the pool of brains in the air cover. It was squirming around in the air cover, as if looking for an outlet. Unfortunately, the air cover is sealed and it is trapped.&1t;/p>
The brain gradually lost its vitality, and after a few minutes, it stopped moving completely. We watched it break down quickly and disappeared without a trace along with the orangutan's corpse.&1t;/p>
Gu Yu removed the air cover and I sighed: "Now I know where those who are hiding in the warehouse are going."&1t;/p>
The power of brain matter is so great. When it is decomposed, the host will also decompose and disappear, and even clothes and personal belongings are not spared.&1t;/p>
&1t;/p>
