1056 The Door Behind the Ruins

"...Do you want to go out and have a look?"

After sticking to the inner wall of the hockey puck and listening for a moment, Bai Ling hesitated and asked Lin Cheng.

Hearing that, Lin Cheng, who had just swallowed the healing potion, frowned and thought for a moment, feeling that the broken breastbone in his chest was not as painful as before, so he nodded, and with a thought, he saw this protecting them from the big bang. The ice puck instantly disappeared, and everyone appeared in the channel again.

However, the concrete passage at this time has long lost its former appearance. The surrounding walls, ceilings, and even the floor were completely blown up in the big explosion just now. There are rubble and debris everywhere, and beams on the ceiling that were originally hidden in the cement. At this time, several truncated beams were exposed, and various twisted and broken steel bars were scattered all over the passage, and they would be scratched if they were not careful.

The passage not far away also collapsed in the big explosion just now, and the passageway was tightly blocked by a pile of broken reinforced concrete. At first glance, it seemed to be the ruins they had encountered when they fled before.

As for the mutant giant rat army, I don’t know if it was completely scared back or what happened. Except for the corpses scattered around in the passage, even a living one can’t be seen. Lin Cheng guessed that these rat army were either jealous just now. At this time, the big bang had retreated, or he was blocked outside the pile of ruins and couldn't enter.

But no matter what, although this channel has almost faltered under the combined bombing of mini rockets and C-type grenade, it seems to be a sign of collapse at any time, but compared with the threat of rats, these are nothing at all. Without the threat of the rats, Lin Cheng and the others were finally able to breathe a sigh of relief, and they sat on the ground in unison, gasping for breath.

"Are you okay?"

Just now because of the fierce fighting situation, although Bai Ling also saw Lin Cheng fighting the mutant giant rat, she really couldn’t get a hand to help. Now that there was no threat from the giant rat, she hurried to Lin. Cheng asked.

"It's nothing serious."

Waved his hand, Lin Cheng touched his chest, feeling that the situation of the breastbone was a little bit optimistic, but now the situation is still unclear, he can only pretend to be indifferent and replied.

"……Ok."

Seeing Lin Cheng's reluctance to say more, Bai Ling didn't ask more. Although she knew very well that Lin Cheng's injuries would not be minor when Lin Cheng flew out just now, but since he can still act, it means that there is no major problem for the time being. In case, she was going to wait for him to leave here before trying to find a way to help him check the wound.

"Those giant rats... are they dead?"

Peter didn't understand Chinese, he didn't know what the two were talking about, and because he was closing his eyes to recover from his injuries, he didn't see the scene where Lin Cheng was shot into the air, so he didn't know Lin Cheng was already injured.

"I don't know, but I don't think I will encounter them again for the time being."

He shook his head slightly. Although he wanted to find out and kill the giant rat that had injured him, he knew in his heart that it was not the time to care about it. The big explosion just now was too violent. He didn't know except for the ruins in front of him. In addition, there are still many ruins in the passage outside, even if they don't encounter the rats in their current state, it is not easy to leave.

But waiting to die has never been Lin Cheng’s character. Thinking of the experience after entering this passage, he finally realized how impulsive his previous decision was. Although most of these giant rats can be destroyed by their hands. , But the giant rat that severely wounded him just now made him realize that the city was ruled by giant rats for no reason.

Sighing, Lin Cheng, who had almost rested, stood up and was about to step forward and scoop the ruins in front to look at the situation in the passage behind him, but when he turned his head and took a look, he was suddenly stunned!

It turned out that the ruin that first blocked their escape route was blown open at this time. Through this opening, he discovered that after the ruins, there was a circular metal door that looked extremely new, but this The metal door looked a little crooked, and when he stepped forward and took a closer look, he discovered that for some reason, the wall where the metal round door was embedded had numerous large cracks broken, and the whole wall appeared to be crumbling. Stance.

Bai Ling and Peter also noticed the weird look in Lin Cheng's eyes at this moment, followed his eyes and looked behind them, and they were all stunned.

"what is this?"

Who could have imagined that, behind the ruins of such a deep underground abandoned ore base, there was such a brand new metal gate that seemed to have just been released. Bai Ling was about to ask a question, and Peter couldn't help asking it first.

It is a pity that no one can answer his question. After seeing the metal gate, Lin Cheng did not rush to leave. Anyway, the ruins in the passage behind him will not be cleared in a short while, but the appearance of this metal gate makes him Feeling something unusual, he went straight in from the blast hole under the ruins, ready to see what the metal gate was for.

Seeing Lin Cheng's interest in this metal gate, Peter and Bai Ling glanced at each other and sighed in a tacit understanding. Then they went through the opening like him and entered the small space behind the ruins.

Standing in front of the metal gate, Lin Cheng squinted his eyes and looked up and down for a while, and found that apart from a circular keyhole in the middle, there was nothing else on the door, not even a word. .

Stretching out his index finger and poking lightly on the keyhole, with the sound of ice crystals condensing, a stream of liquid frost drilled into the keyhole, closing his eyes and feeling the situation inside the lock, Lin Cheng adjusted his hands from time to time The action, the appearance of the unlocking looks so professional and professional.

"Snapped--!"

But who knows, Lin Cheng, who tried for a long time, felt that he was almost trying to turn the ice crystal key to open the lock, but he suddenly felt light in his hand, and quickly looked down, only to see that the ice crystal key broke into the lock. Core!

"This……"

Seeing that the key that he condensed after trying for a long time was broken, Lin Cheng was also a little surprised. Since the hardness of the ice crystal he condensed now is not much weaker than the ordinary iron key, even this is broken in, which can only explain this. The lock cylinder inside the metal door, which looks quite new, should have been decayed, otherwise the key would be broken without any reason.

"Why... shall we try from here?"

Seeing that the ice crystal key in Lin Cheng's hand was broken, Bai Ling looked up and looked around the surroundings. When he saw the cracks on the walls next to the metal gate, he reached out and suggested to Lin Cheng.
