Chapter 1194 The Last PlaceThe elevator crossed the negative twentieth floor and headed deep down into the surface.

Eight power armors were on the elevator as well as a girl carrying a tablet.

Feeling that the elevator began to slow down, Jiang Chen looked behind him, unassured.

“Follow me and don’t run around, okay?”

“Mhmm!” Yao Yao nodded nervously, but there was no fear in her eyes.

After Yao Yao intruded the security system of the Pan-Asia Cooperation Building, she chased the previous intruder’s footprints and took control of the elevator, then she deciphered the way to the negative twenty-first floor.

The next steps were simple. Jiang Chen immediately ordered the power armor units to gather in the hall on the first floor of the Pan-Asia Cooperation Building. Everyone was ready to go down the special passage directly beneath the building to track the whereabouts of the officials of the Survivors Alliance.

Originally Jiang Chen planned to go down with a team.

However, just as he boarded the elevator, Yao Yao raised her hand and courageously purposed to Jiang Chen to bring her along.

At the beginning, Jiang Chen refused. However, under Yao Yao’s insistence, he suddenly remembered what Lin Lin had said when he left, and he finally gave in.

Just before going into the elevator, he had set rules with Yao Yao to ensure that she listened to him, otherwise he would make her go back up.

The elevator stopped at the negative twenty-first floor. Jiang Chen raised his arm and gestured to the power armors behind him, then raised his weapon.

The elevator door slowly opened, and the seven power armors behind him quickly entered the tunnel.

However, the expected battle did not happen, and the dark tunnel was silent.

Lu Fan and Jiang Chen exchanged eye contact, then Lu Fan brought the team downstairs. Just then, there was a repressed low-pitched roar from not far in the distance. In the pitch black darkness, there was an eerie sight full of bloodthirst.

“Uhhh…”

A flashlight was turned on, and zombies were standing next to the platform as they stared blankly at the light. There was a giant hole beside the wall of the small platform.

Without a doubt, these zombies entered through that hole.

Looking at the zombies scattered around, Yao Yao turned pale and moved closer to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen patted Yao Yao’s hand to comfort her as he examined the giant hole in the tunnel, he frowned.

“It should be the Russians.” Lu Fan said in the communication channel. “There is the smell of gunpowder in the air. They should have just blew this place up.”

“So, Line 27 is through this hole?” Jiang Chen asked.

“That is what the map shows. We are now right beside Line 27,” Lu Fan looked at the information on the holographic screen inside his helmet, “They were one step ahead of us.”

Obviously, after the Shangjing Survivors Alliance, the Russians conducted a carpet search of Line 27 and also discovered this special passage in which they conducted a “demolition”.

These zombies should have wondered here from Line 35 or other subway lines connected to Line 27. Fortunately, there were no dangerous species. They should be able to pass through.

What worried Jiang Chen the most was how far Ding Liwei and CCCP went. If this was a race, then NAC was already falling behind.

“Start Sliding Mode,” Jiang Chen looked at the zombies below the stairs, “let’s rush through this place.”

When Lu Fan heard Jiang Chen’s words, it took him some time to process before he interjected.

“General, I suggest we go together after the deployment of the power armor units. If we run into the Russians…”

“We can’t wait any longer.” Jiang Chen kneeled down, and in the unexpected and repressed shout of Yao Yao, he princess lifted her. “I would rather run into a group of Russians with tanks than a group of Russians with Gundams.”

What are Gundams?

Lu Fan took a moment to process.

The General seemed to have said something inexplicable again.

Lu Fan shook his head and threw his doubts to the back of his head.

He already brought forward his opinions. If the general insisted on leaving now, he could only follow his order. As the Guards’ Captain, following orders was his first task, even if he may not think it was a good idea…

“This will feel bumpy, can you just resist for a moment?” Looking at the girl in his arms, Jiang Chen said softly.

“Mhmm!” Blinking her big eyes, Yao Yao nervously hid her hands in front of her chest before she nodded with certainty.

“It’s best to close your eyes if you can.”

Looking at Yao Yao obediently closing her eyes, Jiang Chen then looked at the zombies under the stairs and took a deep breath.

While the decision may lack strategic thinking, he had his own concerns.

While Jiang Chen was not sure if Gundams really existed in the treasure of the Pan-Asia Cooperation, weapons of some kind would most likely be there. After all, the project was approved during the war preparation phase. Even considering the history of that time period, it was not difficult to imagine the things hidden inside.

The sliding wheels popped out of the power armor’s foot, and the vortex engines behind the power armor started to ignite.

“Take off!”

“Roger that!”

Seven power armors circled Jiang Chen and created an arrow formation as they rushed down the stairs.

Already attracted by the flashlight, the zombies now heard the roar of the engines and began to focus to their direction. In the pairs of black pupils, a crimson red color was slowly approaching.

“ROAR!”

The fearless zombies began to rush at the sliding power armors. They extended their thin arms at the power armor leading the formation. But quickly, they realized the foolishness of their decision.

The zombies in front of Lu Fan were directly sent into the air. The power armors on the side unleashed bullets, suppressing the zombies rushing forward.

The gusting airflow sent Yao Yao’s hair flying as she buried her face against Jiang Chen’s chest. The gunshots rang in her ear and made her close her eyes tightly…

After what felt like a century, the gunshots gradually stopped, and the airflow began to slow down. Yao Yao finally opened her eyes.

“You’re safe.” Gently patting Yao Yao’s back, Jiang Chen looked at the long eyelashes that were stuck together and a smile formed on his face. He then looked at the zombies that were left behind and felt relieved.

Switching to the private channel, Jiang Chen ordered Lu Fan.

“Get the people above to send a few engineer soldiers down to plug the hole.”

If these zombies were allowed to spread from Line 27, then the “Safety Passage” would not longer be safe.

“Roger!” Lu Fan responded with sharpness.

Their journey did not have more twists and turns.

Two power armors accelerated and led in the front, maintaining a high-speed sliding state. The group accelerated in the direction of Line 2.

Looking at the looming light source in front, Jiang Chen used his spare hand to rub Yao Yao’s hair.

“Are you feeling okay?”

“Mhmm.” Yao Yao carefully moved her face away from Jiang Chen’s chest. Yao Yao then looked at the zombies that had long disappeared and said with lingering anxiousness, “That was scary.”

“I told you you should have stayed above ground. Should I send you back?”

Yao Yao shook her head and said seriously, “Sister Lin said to me when we called yesterday that if you are going to find Line 0, I need to be with you.”

“Lin Lin also knows about Line 0?” Jiang Chen wondered, “Why didn’t she tell me before I came here?”

“Sister Lin said that she was not sure whether it was a rumor or the real thing. Her understanding of Eden Technology is just the tip of the iceberg. But she also said that if Line 0 really exists, my ability will definitely help you.” Yao Yao whispered as she leaned on Jiang Chen’s chest.

Is that so?

He fixed his gaze on the girl in his arms and wondered if she could really help him, but more than that, he was concerned about her safety.

Of course, Lin Lin may also be right. If the pre-war civilization built this, some things may not be solved by muscles alone. Yao Yao’s computer skills may be his advantage.

Just as Jiang Chen thought of this, the two power armors leading the team gradually slowed down.

Jiang Chen frowned, switched to the private communication channel and asked Lu Fan.

“What happened?”

Before Lu Fan could respond, the two power armors leading the way reported in the public channel.

“General, someone is lying on the side of the tunnel…”
