As soon as the words fell, several people in the laboratory immediately became nervous, and all their eyes turned to Ding Junyi. After thinking about it, they knew that there was nothing good in this broken laboratory, so they could only listen to Ding Junyi's analysis. At this time, Ding Junyi stepped forward and said directly without much hesitation.
"We have P3-level management authority over the underground city. Except for a few specific areas, we can assist you in obtaining supplies from the residential area, commercial area, entertainment area, industrial area, storage layer, animal and plant and cultural asset protection layer, scientific research layer, and various fast passages. Although we have moved, there must be a lot of valuable supplies left in an underground city with hundreds of thousands of people abandoned in an emergency."
"In addition, we also know the parking location of a Gemini 11R nuclear-powered electric locomotive. The small micro-nuclear-powered DRX power generation reactor on this electric locomotive has a thermal power of 290 megawatts. In addition, if you need research data from our biological laboratory, we can also provide it, but it needs to be kept confidential in both directions to avoid us being politically tried by the federal government."
She directly told all the chips she had analyzed. Xu Wen next to her looked nervous and whispered
"Then the third point...should we talk about it?"
Although she sounded very resistant at first, when she really faced the negotiation, she wanted to reveal all her conditions just to save her life.
"No need." Ding Junyi took her finger off the answer button and said calmly, "If they rescue us, we will lose all our rights besides the right to life. We will not be able to decide what they want to do to us."
The few people here are all ordinary people, and they can even be said to be powerless. In this case, they can only regard Lin Xian and others as saviors, but also consider the possibility that the other party is bandits and thugs.
Han Qiming looked unhappy and said, "Is it possible that it's not that exaggerated? Look at those three women, they don't look like the kind of people who would do anything to a man like me. They don't look like vicious people."
Zhao Yan looked at him with a different expression
"Professor Han, you are confused. Do you think Director Ding is talking about those three girls? Do you want to see that 2-meter-tall guy?"
"what?!"
Han Qiming's face turned green as soon as he said this, and his legs trembled. "No... No way."
Ding Junyi rubbed his brows, unable to understand why these people always focused on such unimportant points.
……
On the "Infinity", Lin Xian and KIKI's eyes lit up when they heard what Ding Junyi said.
"Oh my god, a Gemini 11R nuclear-powered electric locomotive, wow!" KIKI exclaimed, "Lin Xian, that sounds good."
Lin Xian looked surprised and smiled strangely at Chen Sixuan and the others.
"This woman is very smart, but according to her, they don't have any material resources. All they have is a little authority and information."
After the emergency evacuation of such a large underground city, there must be a lot of supplies left, but this statement is too general and has little value to Lin Xian and his team. They certainly know that there will be some gains in it.
However, the risks of these unknown gains cannot be assessed and are far less meaningful than the Gemini 11R nuclear-powered electric locomotive mentioned by the other party. However, Ding Junyi directly mentioned this matter, which made Lin Xian feel that the other party understood his purpose.
"If that's the case, then we don't actually need to go through them at all. Can't we just give me some time to hack into the system?"
KIKI said directly.
"how long it takes?"
"We won't know until we connect to it, but in this case the main control AI must have been removed, and what's left should be a subsystem. I estimate... five or six hours."
"That's not necessary."
Lin Xian said, "It might be easier to rescue them. If they are really a research team, they might have a lot of information we need. Plus, they have a better understanding of the current situation inside the dungeon. In this case, cooperation is definitely more efficient than confrontation."
"Could they be lying to us?" Chen Sixuan knew Lin Xian's intention, but she also said with concern.
"Look first, girl!"
Lin Xian pointed to the roof of the car, and KIKI immediately understood.
Soon, two drones rose from the roof of the Infinity car and flew quickly towards the sky above the underground city.
"The snow and wind are too strong, so the image quality is not good."
Information center, KIKI is operating the drone while complaining
“It’s okay.” Lin Xian said, “Observe it before it gets dark. It will help us determine the general situation. Let’s take a look below first…”
"Okay~" KIKI pursed her lips, looking at the completely silent underground tunnel on the screen, and said, "It looks like what they said, there is no movement of living people."
"It would be great if there was a thermal imaging system. This is the perfect place for it."
Lin Xian nodded. "The large aerial nocturnal organism they just mentioned might be the atmospheric jellyfish we saw last night. I just don't know what the underground creature is."
Chen Sixuan said, "It looks like it's much more dangerous than we thought. Even if we go in, we can't stay for too long." "Then we'll prioritize targeting the Gemini 11R nuclear-powered electric locomotive, and we can target the rest depending on the situation." Lin Xian said at this time, "Can we locate the 52nd floor where they are?"
KIKI shook her head and said, "No, we will lose the signal if we leave the horizon. It's too dark down there and we can't see anything. But look, there is a tunnel ahead. After opening the door, the train can go directly down to the underground city."
"It's normal to have underground tracks for cargo transportation in such a large underground city."
Staying on the train will give you a better chance of dealing with zombies, and if you need to transport supplies, the elevator inside will be more convenient.
But driving the train into a closed, fallen underground city is somewhat risky.
Lin Xian hesitated for a moment, looked at KIKI and asked, "What do you think?"
"There are definitely risks." KIKI held up her chin and looked at Lin Xian, "But what the other party said sounds very consistent with our intended purpose. The only problem is that we don't know what kind of strange body is inside, and that underground creature that sounds a bit scary..."
Lin Xian nodded: "Energy is a big problem. It is the key to our survival in the future. However, I have also reserved 1-2 days for this purpose. The purpose is to improve the Infinity's protection and detection systems before going to the high-altitude corridor. The life support system and weapon system are also very critical..."
"so?"
"I think this risk is worth taking." Lin Xian said in a deep voice.
An empty underground city lies before him. If he doesn't try to explore it, it would be a shame to his mechanical abilities. Moreover, there is already information about nuclear-powered electric locomotives. He must give this doomsday artifact a try!
"Okay!" KIKI raised her hand actively and said, "I agree."
After hearing Lin Xian's words, Chen Sixuan and the others looked at each other with approval.
Everyone knows that the key to survival at present is the Infinity Train, and as a mechanical mutant, Lin Xian has an absolute say in this regard. If there is a chance to improve the safety of the train, the effect will definitely be greater than obtaining ordinary living supplies.
On the other side, in the laboratory, Zhao Yan, Xu Wen and Han Qiming were feeling extremely tormented. They had finally waited for a team that could provide rescue before the polar night and saw a glimmer of hope, but the other party was not obligated to risk their lives to save them. So they could only pray that the conditions offered by Ding Junyi would impress the other party.
"Will they really agree? We have nothing to eat or drink here, and we don't know if there are any weapons in the military zone. Will they really come to rescue us just for that nuclear-powered electric locomotive that we don't know if it can be used?"
Xu Wen had a look of despair on his face. Although Ding Junyi's analysis seemed reasonable to the others, when they thought about it carefully, they felt that it did not sound like a condition at all.
The other party has people with special abilities and may not need their help at all to enter the dungeon. What's more, the Gemini 11R nuclear-powered electric locomotive is just a theoretical information. In fact, the 95th floor has been disconnected from the system for many days, and they have no idea what the situation is below.
It seems that none of these sound as likely as food and weapons.
There is even a greater possibility of sexual resources or expecting the other party to have a savior conscience burst out to save fellow human beings.
Thinking of this, the expressions of several people became even more flustered.
Xu Wen paced back and forth anxiously. Seeing that the answering machine had not responded, he became anxious and immediately prepared to rush to the answering machine.
"What are you going to do?" Ding Junyi asked.
"I...I told them that there is plenty of food, plenty of drinks, and a large number of weapons here. Maybe this will impress them!"
After these words came out, Zhao Yan and Han Qiming also looked at him with complicated eyes.
They all knew that Xu Wen was desperate and was trying every possible means, but they themselves were also in a state of confusion and could not calm down at all.
Ding Junyi looked at her coldly. "I know what you are thinking, but I suggest you don't do it."
"Why?!" Xu Wen was a little hysterical, his eyes red as he said, "I don't think the conditions you mentioned can impress them at all. If there is nothing more practical..."
"So these things you made up are very practical?"
"But...but..."
Ding Junyi glanced at the other two people. "From a rational point of view, if the other party has no idea about the first condition, then we are actually not worth rescuing. Even if we guessed correctly that the other party has an idea about the first condition and reached a temporary friendly cooperation with us, this seemingly friendly cooperation is actually very fragile, because our existence is not necessary and essential to the other party. In other words, they can use us and then kill us all, and we have no choice. In this negotiation where the subsequent survival depends entirely on the other party's moral standards, you still want to use lies to trick the other party into saving us. Do you think it is rational?"
Xu Wen was rendered speechless by her words. His face was filled with fear and his lips were dry. The hand that was reaching for the answering machine button trembled slightly in the air, and then slowly retracted.
"Wake up," Ding Junyi said, crossing her arms, "We don't have the military strength. In this situation, we still have a chance of survival if we maintain friendship, but we will definitely die if we try to cheat and get away with it."
The new book is on the shelves, begging for monthly tickets, infinite train, rushing into the sky!
Thank you so much!
