One night passed.

Of course, day and night are not important to the underground. However, for the sake of biological clock, Feiren still took a night off before walking out of the room and began to inspect the entire base.

Everything here is as always, and there is no change at all because of the arrival of Feren.

"Ah, Lord Feren, hello."

"Mr. Faren...good morning."

After seeing Feilun, the members of the underground base along the way smiled and greeted him very respectfully. Looking at their appearance, it seemed that they and Feilun had known each other for a long time.

In fact, they did think so. At least in the eyes of the people of these underground bases, Faren is their ruler.

The reason why these people have such a perception is very simple. Just yesterday, after Faren and others came here and got General Kayson, he signaled the old man to summon all members to gather in the hall. Then, Admiral Kayson introduced the origin of Faren and others to everyone, and then... it was time for Franka to appear.

With the help of Franca's ability, she easily "cognitive tampered" in the brain of these people. She transferred part of the concept in people's mind to Faren and others. Originally, in the eyes of these people at the underground base, General Kayson was their companion and their ruler. Now, Franca just transformed the concept of ruler and placed it on Faren, and instilled in these people the message that "Admiral Kayson was Faren's deputy and had been assisting him in managing the entire base." Therefore, the people at the base directly accepted the news without any resistance and fully recognized Faren's leadership position.

In this way, in less than ten seconds, Feiren completely took the base.

Now Feren likes Franka more and more. This magical devil is simply a omnipotent Swiss Army knife, and there is almost nothing she can't do. In the past, Feren did not allow her to transform at will because Franka's self-identity was not solid enough at that time, and she was easily influenced by her own changing form and emotions. But now Franka has the ability to clone, so naturally she is not worried that her emotions and should be affected by her changing form.

However, after Feiren checked, he still discovered some restrictions on Franka. Originally, Feiren thought that Franka would only consume a lot of energy when it needed to increase the damage output, but now Feiren found that in addition to this, Franka would also consume a lot of energy when using some very "unspecified" abilities. It was like this time the cognitive tampering of the underground base members, less than 300 people spent 150 excellent energy chips of less than 300 people. On average, two people consumed an excellent chip, which was obviously very unprofitable. Moreover, Franka also told Feiren that the more "cheating" ability, the greater her energy consumption. If the "logistics supply" on Feiren could not keep up, maybe Franka would not even have enough energy to maintain her own form.

So Feren decisively gave up the idea of ​​letting Franka brainwash everyone in the ten towns. There are still some ordinary people here who can't be more ordinary and don't even have enough slave levels in the wasteland. This is to change those people or abilities in the wasteland, and they don't know how much energy chips will be spent. At least now, Feren can't produce so many energy chips.

However, for Feren, he received not only this information. The most important thing is that even in Kayson, he did not get the specific situation of the base. According to Kayson, this mysterious underground city is part of a very large research plan of the government. In fact, most of the researchers who live underground are just the "previous parts" of this research plan. This is normal. Any huge research requires a lot of basic cooperation, just like building a house requires laying the foundation first. These people actually came here to lay the foundation. As for whether this "house" is used for office or for commercial housing, they don't know.

Other research projects are more like an exchange. Take the Mars Regeneration Cycle Project, which saved everyone's lives from underground. According to Kayson, this huge research plan occupied most of the research investment at that time, so it naturally caused dissatisfaction among other scientific research institutions. In the end, the superior departments in charge of the plan had to exchange interests with these institutions, allowing them to move some very "worthy investment" research projects here for research.

However, no one, including Kayson, knew what this huge research plan itself was. They just vaguely guessed that it should be some kind of research on biology. After all, most of the people here are experts in this field. They are also doing basic research on biology, but no one can explain clearly what they are for.

Feilun had no choice but to ask another thing - about the node.

The reason why Feilun investigated here was because he realized that there was an extremely huge node here. Now, since he had found this dungeon, it was natural to find the node, and control and investigate it.

Fortunately, this time Feiren did not return without success. According to Admiral Kayson, there is indeed a main control room deep underground here, which is the center used to exchange control of the entire dungeon. However, for some reason, he completely lost contact. He once sent someone to check it out, but because of the strange ghosts, he finally gave up this idea. Now what we are using is a backup branch interaction control server, perhaps this is why it is not affected by the energy nodes.

But no matter what, the node is currently Feiren's only target, so after he woke up and finished breakfast, he immediately summoned the others to go to the central core area where the node is located.

"It's here?"

Looking at the thick iron gate in front of him, Feiren raised his brows, then looked at General Kesen beside him, and the old general respectfully lowered his head to Feiren and nodded.

"Yes, sir. There are many secret equipment in the core area besides the computer room. I don't know what is inside. After all, it was built before we moved in. And it has been under the supervision of a dedicated person..."

"So how do you make sure there are no living people here now?"

"We are not sure, but we have not received any contact from the central control center, and......"

The old general didn't finish it, but Feiren didn't need him to continue. So many people underground were able to survive until now because the Mars ecological cycle project gave them enough food to sustain life. This is just a central core area. It can be imagined that there may be many secrets hidden here, but they will definitely not include food and water.

"I get it, open the door."

Thinking of this, Feilun did not talk much nonsense, but looked at Delin and then issued an order. Hearing Feilun's words, the old general quickly took out his ID card and brushed it on the card slot next to it. Soon, with the "rumbling" sound, the originally tightly closed steel gate slowly opened, and the biting cold breath poured in from outside, making everyone take a few steps back. Under the light, you can see that the other side of the steel gate was pitch black and there was no color at all. It seemed that the dark hell was quietly waiting for those unlucky guys to fall into the trap.

"Sorry, sir, we don't have enough power to guard..."

"I don't need your guards either."

Feiren waved his hand and interrupted the old general's words. These people didn't even have a system, and the only sheriffs had just practiced shooting. In Feiren's opinion, these people were not even qualified to be a warrior in the wasteland and followed them, which would be a death sentence.

"Give me the card, and you can close the door and wait for my news."

"Okay, sir."

Hearing Feiren's words, the old general respectfully handed over the card. Feiren took the ID card, then made a gesture to everyone, and saw Delin and Franka walking out with Kurona. Shaer hesitated for a moment before following the three of them. Feiren left the last time. Behind them, the thick steel gate slowly fell. Soon, accompanied by a loud roar, darkness enveloped everything again. Except for the emergency lights shining with green light on their heads, all around was darkness.

"Everyone is alert...Culona, ​​can you feel anything?"

As he spoke, Faren glanced around. When he heard Faren's inquiry, Kurona shook her head.

"Sorry, Commander, the interference here is still very strong. I can't use my abilities well..."

"Then let it be... I hope those ghosts and other broken things don't come out to cause trouble for us again."

Although the old general said there was nothing here, Feiren would not think so. Nodes are the top priority of a region, and anything at the core of the node will mutate due to a large amount of energy. For example, the mutants and information bodies they encountered in the ninth area are one of them. The old general said that there are also control personnel here, so most of them may have mutated. If this is the case, then the next journey will definitely not be smooth.
