Chapter 417: Premeditated defection? Of course, rock is the least likely object to conduct heat, so the rock turns into a powder layer, which is not very thick. An Feng estimated that this layer of powder is about centimeters thick, which is more obvious around the hole. The powder layer is formed by high temperatures. Glaze layer, the quartz material in the rock is sintered into glass at high temperature. Same with this. Because there is no ventilation system underground, the high temperature spreads slowly to the surroundings. It was not until an hour later that the temperature near the No. 7 Excavation Tunnel dropped to about 100 degrees Celsius. Bob and his party of four were about kilometers away from the No. 7 Excavation Tunnel. Stopping in their tracks, the mine tunnel they faced was already extremely hot. In the dark tunnel, some ores turned reddish, and the rails on the ground were even more shockingly hot. Not only that, the heat wave that hits your face also carries a suffocating smell. A heat wave rolls directly on your face. You clearly feel the wind blowing on your face, but it feels like you are plunged into the water and can't breathe any air. I felt dizzy and my hands and feet were weak from holding it back. Unconsciously, the three mercenaries quietly took a few steps back. Feeling that it was still difficult to breathe smoothly, they couldn't help but take a few steps back When they didn't feel so hot anymore and their breathing became easier, one of the mercenaries Bing turned his attention to the walls on both sides of the tunnel. ¡°On the walls on both sides of the tunnel, there were power lines left behind by the mining company, and mercenaries also went down underground to rearrange the power lines. After repeated twists and turns, the power lines originally arranged by the mine company were basically damaged, broken, and damaged, while the power lines arranged by the mercenaries were still retained. At least the section of the line behind the people still looked good. In front of the mercenaries, in those places where the heat wave is steaming, the protective adhesive layer of the power cords has been burned, and many power cords have melted together, making them completely unusable. At this time, everyone knew that something was wrong with the first mercenary team. In this extreme high temperature, they had no chance of survival. A mercenary walked over with sadness, cut the line with the scissors he carried, then arranged the communication line, and reported the status of the first group to the top through the line. He said sadly: "The temperature at the center of the explosion is not high. We know how many degrees it is. We are now about 700 meters away from the explosion point. The air temperature here is already over 50 degrees. It is as hot as a steamer and is more unbearable than the Sahara Desert." After a pause, the mercenary added: " I think the ventilation system should be repaired and the hot air inside should be pumped out so that we can find the bodies of the victims and the bodies of the two target persons by the way - I think that in this case, the target we are chasing cannot survive. "No, they must be alive, I'm sure of that." Bob stepped forward and took the soldier's intercom, adding in a calm tone: "You can't imagine the survivability of these two people. They must be hiding now." Where are you waiting for the opportunity to counterattack? "Sir, your hiring mission has not been completed. I still need your help. Let's finish our lives together. Only if I confirm the bodies of those two people can you receive them." The remaining payment." The squadron leader hesitated, took a few breaths, suppressed his anger, and asked Bob: "Do you think that all members of my first team have been killed?" "Yes, this is not the case. No doubt." "So, what was the cause of the accident? Was it the flamethrower that accidentally ignited the methane in the tunnel, or was it some other reason?" "It was not an accident, it was a battle. I am sure of this, but what happened? What, I need to wait for the cave to cool down before I can tell you." The squadron leader smacked his lips and replied nonchalantly: "I think so too. My soldiers have electronic police dogs in their hands, and they are particularly sensitive to air components. There are also various advanced equipment, which makes it impossible to detonate the methane in the tunnel. But I have a little doubt. The information I received said that the woman transported five trucks of supplies into the tunnel, and personal items accounted for most of these supplies. Most of the weight. But now, as the battle progresses, the two people in the tunnel have fired at least 30,000 rounds of ammunition and discarded nearly a hundred guns. The ammunition they consumed can fill an arsenal. What is going on? I still want to know how the high temperature in the tunnel is caused? Where do they get so many materials to deal with us so far? Why do the people in the tunnel always use cracking equipment tit for tat every time we use it? Can you tell me what's going on? I have spent nearly a month in this Balka Mountain. I brought more than 40 of the world's top mercenaries, and I crawled into the tunnel like a mouse. Here, just to capture two people who look like mice Now, two-thirds of the troops in my hand are lost. The two people I am chasing are able to do it with ease. It seems that there are inexhaustible means, which are already inexhaustible. Okay, now you ask me to continue, please tell me: What should I use to continue? With the remaining supplies? Do you think this is wise? ¡± The former question is difficult to explain. Susanna¡¯s initial decision to select this hiding spot was a temporary one, as there were not many supplies stored in the hiding spot. After nearly a month of fierce fighting, even if the five carts of supplies were all food, the two people should have exhausted all the food. But now those two people are alive and well, living better than mercenaries This is unscientific. The only logical explanation is that when An Feng rushed to this mountainous area later, he brought a large amount of supplies with him. According to normal calculations, the supplies An Feng carried should be at least three times the supplies currently consumed. Only in this way can the two people be able to explain how comfortable they are now. This answer is too scary. This shows that An Feng¡¯s purpose in coming to this mountainous area is not pure. Before he came to this mountainous area, he had already made plans to join hands with Susanna, so he brought a large amount of supplies. His behavior is reinforcement rather than arrest. Thinking more deeply, when An Feng knew that he had been framed, his first instinct was to prepare reinforcements. Is this possible? Then he immediately got rid of the tight control of the intelligence agency and accurately found Susanna's secret hiding place Well, this means that the two people have been in contact before, and they even had a tacit understanding before. Thinking that these two people came from the same research institute, and were created by the same scientific madman, if you logically deduce them, the result is very scary. Bob narrowed his eyes and tried to pretend as if nothing had happened. "Mr. Squadron Leader, if you have questions, don't ask me. I'm just an executor. You should mention your questions to the person you should ask the question, and don't talk to me." This sentence is actually a hint. The squadron leader thought for a while and decided to follow this hint. He signaled the adjutant to activate the secret communication line and contact the submarine captain. The squadron leader could not guarantee whether the contact could be answered smoothly because the submarine captain had not actively contacted the squadron leader since the last communication interruption. The signal has been sent, and the next step is to wait patiently for the communication satellite to send a handshake signal, and then the submarine captain agrees to receive the communication signal from the squadron leader. The people above the well were waiting, and the people below the well were also waiting. When the captain decided to contact his employer, Bob also seemed reasonable. He asked the three mercenaries carrying the boxes to retreat a certain distance, and at the same time ordered them: "First move the mercenaries down the well. The ventilation system has been restored. It's best to restore the underground lighting circuit. I don't like groping in the dark "What, are you worried that restoring the lighting will help the other party move? No, no, no, they have two eyes. We each have two eyes." Individuals also have two eyes. They have four eyes in total. We have eight eyes here. It is obviously beneficial to us to restore the lighting Okay, I said an order rather than a request. Do as I say. The soldier quickly asked his superior for instructions. At this time, the mercenary squadron leader was biting his thumb and circling around the desk in the tent. When he heard this request, he waved his hand disapprovingly: "He is right, I should have thought of it earlier. With this in mind, as long as we have sufficient power, we will restore underground lighting. ¡± At this time, An Feng and Susanna had swam to the entrance of Tunnel No. 1. The damage to the tunnel here was not serious, and some power lines could still be used. Of course, it was also isolated from the high temperature and oxygen of Tunnel No. 1. An Feng Fumbling around in the dark to connect the available lines, Susanna watched his actions from the side and talked about the scene after the explosion in Tunnel No. 7: "I didn't pay attention to the other people, but those two mysterious What happened to people? For example, the white mercenary who suddenly disappeared, how could he disappear from my hearing? When he reappeared, he had become a corpse What about your vision? Did your visual system lose them? " An Feng nodded calmly and continued busy with his hands without raising his eyelids: "A dead enemy is the best enemy. Why those two people are so weird and what special abilities they have are irrelevant now. They no longer exist. They can no longer threaten us. Why bother to pursue the details? " Susanna shook her head. Seeing An Feng carefully wrapping the power connector, she quickly handed over a data cable, and then said absently: "No, if I don't find out their details, I will have trouble sleeping and eating, because next time We may also encounter similar enemies. If we encounter such a person again, we will still be in a hurry if we don't know the details. " An Feng shrugged and began to quickly connect the data cable. "In the darkness, Susanna was absent-minded, so she did not hear the sound of insects crawling - she only saw the beautiful blue moon ring on An Feng's hand constantly coming out of it. Countless ants, those ants are crawling quickly along the line, but their crawling speed is not at all like the speed of ants. "Success cannot be copied. Believe me, even if they create one or two people with certain specialties, they cannot." Create two identical super killers, because people are never industrialized products, even if they have the same family, the same education, the same experience, the same level of study, and careThis creates two completely different individuals. Isn¡¯t that what you and I are like? Your bones have been reconstructed, and mine have been partially reconstructed, but our development directions are different. I believe those people are also facing the same situation. Or after bone reconstruction or gene reconstruction, they will become better than ordinary people in various skills, but that's just it. If a certain aspect of sensory ability enters an area that cannot be explained by science, I believe that is definitely an exception and will never be the case. Maybe mass manufacturing, industrial production Do you know what I mean? " Susanna watched An Feng start up the laptop. She nodded: "You want to tell me that the two mysterious mercenaries we just encountered are in the past tense. We will never see mercenaries with similar skills again, so there is no need to To find out what their specialties are and how they have these specialties, just know how to kill them. " An Feng nodded solemnly and replied: "I used to be a student under the doctor, and I heard some strange remarks from the doctor. The doctor once imagined the design of a transparent human being. He said: It is impossible for light to completely penetrate the human body. , but it is possible to make the human body act like a chameleon, distorting light in areas near the body, and even completely integrating the human body with the surrounding environment, and it can be achieved with modern technology. For example, the current three-dimensional painting is obviously a picture painted on the sidewalk, with an abyss and lava on it, but this three-dimensional painting can cleverly deceive the world's vision, allowing you to stand next to the picture, even if you are standing next to the picture. He stepped on the picture, but still couldn't see any flaws. He felt completely clearly that there was an abyss and lava under his feet. Similar deception devices have already appeared. For example, by applying stereoscopic technology to holographic photography, you can see that there are high-rise buildings in front of you, but it makes you feel that the high-rise buildings do not exist at all, and you only see the grass and streams in front of you. . Of course, holography is a relatively advanced method, and it is easy to be exposed in complete darkness. But I have also used lower-level methods than holography, and you have also used them. For example, the camouflage tarpaulin we use to avoid soldiers from searching on the ground is actually a coating on the surface, and the fluorescent substance that makes up the coating is The seventh-generation TV screen is the main component of the soft screen. It can be placed on clothes, shoes, walls, and anywhere you want it to play TV images. The rest is easy. With the flexible TV screen, we only need to construct a three-dimensional picture on the screen to search our soldiers. Even if they are standing next to us, they still won¡¯t feel it" Susanna looked As An Feng typed out a long password on the computer and then sent the "handshake" message, she quickly interrupted: "You were telling me about camouflage tarpaulins and holographic photography, but I didn't feel anything around me. Electromagnetic fluctuations, that mysterious invisible guy, the battle suit on his body is not a soft display, unless" There is a response on the computer, and the computer kitten will send the received information An Feng didn't have time to look up, so he briefly Remind Suzanne: ¡°GMO. " It took Susanna a while to understand what An Feng meant. She opened her mouth wide in surprise and took several breaths. Seeing An Feng busy receiving information, she murmured to herself in a low voice: "Oh my God, this is It is a consensus in the scientific community that it is taboo to carry out various genetic modifications on humans. Man was created by God, and to interfere with his evolution is to enter the realm of the gentry and disturb the "hand of God." " An Feng snorted and said disdainfully: "How did we get here? " Susanna stammered in response: "This is different. We only strengthen part of the limbs, like prosthetic limb reconstruction, like cell regeneration, while transgenes implant foreign genes into the human body, which is more serious than cloning. " An Feng waved his hand to interrupt Susanna's words. He made a silent gesture, and then contacted the computer kitten with crackling hands. At this time, his original communication plan was finally realized - he found a dead servant. The soldier's communication equipment is now disguised as a fallen mercenary, and the computer kitten is having a conversation. In order to avoid being discovered, the entire conversation process is to first compress and encrypt the conversation, and then wait for a thousandth of a second. The signal is sent out within the phone, and the receiver decrypts it through a specific decryption program to understand the complete content of the call. This kind of call makes the conversation between the two parties a bit intermittent. After each person sends his or her own words, he or she needs to wait for the other party to decompress it. After decryption, the answer will also go through the process of decryption and decompression, so the two parties have to wait a little longer during the call. An Feng asked: "Have you found the employer behind the scenes? " Computer Kitten replied: "Their employer has been found. This employer once had a brief phone call with a person codenamed No. 5. As for the content of the call, I have not cracked it. Can you create two or three more phone calls? " An Feng asked in surprise: "It's been an hour, and you still haven'tTo understand their communication password, you are an intelligent computer, possibly one of the top intelligent computers in the world. " The answer of the computer kitten was rather shameful. It explained in a low voice: "I was discovered Oh, I didn't mean that they tracked me No, maybe they didn't know about my existence, but one of them noticed it. The amount of data flowing in and out was abnormal, so the main server was forcibly shut down. So far, the communication ship has restored power and quickly dived again, but their communication has never been restored. I guess the people on the ship are still trying to search for viruses and take stock of their losses. They had sent out three commands quickly, but refused to receive any external signals, so I needed them to restore communication, or at least resume receiving signals. " An Feng thought for a while and replied: "Okay, if I force them a little more, they will always contact the outside world. I have the patience. " After a pause, An Feng asked with interest: "Well, what useful information did you get from them? " Computer kitten can't lie, and told honestly: "I only searched for small files in their archives at first, and I estimated that I downloaded about one-third of the small files. When I changed my target to more than 600 MB, three When I transferred a medium-sized file below GB, I just transferred a file and it was discovered. At present, it seems that there is not much valuable information in the archives. Most of those small files are text memos, only a few hundred K in size, with no images or photos. I am currently summarizing these small documents, and I have not found any content involving you. As for your female companion, unless you tell me the code name she uses, I have no clue based on words alone, so I need Continue to monitor their communications. " An Feng thought for a while and replied: "Okay, I will communicate with you every half an hour from now on, and you can tell me if there is any new situation. ¡± At this moment, the mercenaries finally opened the ventilation system and began to pump out the hot air underground. At this time, the owners were on both sides of the tunnel. Most of the tunnel entrances were blocked, so the several tunnels that connected with each other were easier to escape. Quickly filled with air. When Susanna saw An Feng ended the call, she turned around, deliberately not looking at what An Feng was doing with the laptop in his hand, and said with a recalling look, "Yeah, you just mentioned the disguise scene. , I suddenly remembered that when I was shot by those two men for the first time, I fired continuously at the empty cave entrance. At that time, I didn't know why, but I just felt where I had to shoot. However, when the bullet I fired reached the void, the warhead seemed to disappear into the void, but then I clearly felt a sound like breaking glass, but I did not see any fragments splashing down. " Suzanne was thinking about other things behind An Feng's back in order to prevent herself from remembering. She didn't want to write down the things that suddenly disappeared and suddenly appeared in An Feng's hands, lest she be arrested and someone read this memory. Now that she recalled the battle scene at that time, she understood: It turned out that the two special mercenaries did not disappear, but they built a virtual scene in front of them, allowing the virtual scene to deceive Susanna. vision, and they themselves were hiding behind the virtual scene, maybe staring straight at Susanna, and arrogantly aiming their rifles at Susanna. Well, at this moment, Susanna really didn't need to know how the two people constructed the virtual scene. She just needs to remember to follow the incoming ballistics and shoot in the opposite direction, no matter what the scene is in any direction. An Feng handed a watch from behind. This watch looked like a military watch used by the Navy SEALs. Susanna. As soon as she picked it up, she knew that it was a miniature talker. Of course, it also had all the functions of a military diving watch. Putting on the watch silently, Susanna listened to the strong buzzing sound in the ventilation shaft. Don't worry, the original huge ventilation fan in the mine is now running overloaded. The ventilation fan after the current overload is running very noisy. It is violently extracting the hot air from the underground while injecting high-concentration compressed air. Well, the group of mercenaries outside are indeed very wealthy. The compressed air they poured in was not obtained directly from the air, but was actually prepared by themselves. The mixed gas has exactly the same composition as the air, and the nitrogen substance in it is actually prepared from liquid nitrogen. Therefore, after the air was poured into the underground passage, the temperature in the passage immediately dropped by more than ten degrees. The whistling wind felt like the cold wind of hell. After a while, the opening of the ventilation passage was actually frozen. There was a thin layer of frost. The ventilation work lasted for two hours. During these two hours, An Feng and Susanna closed their eyes and rested. The squadron leader waited anxiously for the employer to restore communication, while Bob tentatively led people into the cave and approached. At the entrance of Tunnel No. 7, the three mercenaries carrying the box behind him were busy re-establishing communication and lighting lines on the route they had taken. In the mine tunnel, the iron train originally used to transport ore was used by Bob.Come on, there are now six gas cylinders on the iron train, four of which are liquid nitrogen cylinders, one is an oxygen cylinder, and one is an ice cylinder. Bob directed the soldiers to unscrew the valves of the six cylinders. The mercenaries quickly opened the valves to the maximum. Bob kicked the ore cart, and the ore cart slid deep into the tunnel along the incomplete rails. At the twist of the railway track, the ore cart dumped onto the ground. Several gas bottles were thrown out of the car, and then rolled along the natural slope of the tunnel toward the depths of the tunnel. Some gas bottles were blocked by obstacles on the way. By luck, The cylinders that were not blocked continued to roll toward the bottom of the cave. This kind of thing is very effective for rapid cooling. People can finally enter the area where the cylinders rolled. Several people walked along the rails, raised the ore cart again, picked up the cylinders that were blocked by obstacles, and then continued in the same way. Roll the cylinder deeper. Because the tunnel they passed through was not suitable for human survival at all, the four people walked with confidence - they only had to deal with the high temperature in the tunnel. Because they were afraid that the high temperature would detonate explosives and bullets, they did not even bring weapons with them until they advanced to the entrance of Tunnel No. 7. Bob turned on the large flashlight without any scruples, illuminating the dust surface at the entrance of Tunnel No. 7 and the glass-layered rocks on the outer edge. The three mercenaries behind him gestured to each other, preparing to enter Tunnel No. 7 to explore. Bob suddenly stretched out his hand and made a stop gesture. He pointed in the direction of the central transfer platform and reminded: "Listen." The three mercenaries listened attentively. They actually heard nothing, but saw Bob's affirmative expression. , hurriedly asked carefully: "Sergeant, what's going on? "Bob nodded enigmatically and said: "Gunshot,4¡§Check the intercom to see if it can communicate with the ground. " Several mercenaries quickly checked the intercom, and sure enough, they had lost contact with the ground. A mercenary threw himself on the tunnel wall and checked the communication line they had just laid It was clear that the communication line was unobstructed. But why did no one respond to the communication request they sent? Bob simply turned on the flashlight to the maximum. While admiring the miserable situation of Tunnel No. 7, he praised: "Yes, I would do the same if it were me. , I will not let anyone know the detailed battle situation. This is the correct method. Constantine, you finally made me admire you. "
