Chapter 437 Inside the Giant Tower (3100 words)
"Commander, how did you gain access to the Siren facility?"
Washington watched in amazement as the energy surrounding the giant tower disappeared and the mechanical corridor appeared in front of everyone. He turned to look at Lin Lan, who also looked confused.
Not only Washington, but other White Eagle ship girls also cast doubtful looks at Lin Lan.
Lin Lan was also confused by the question. What if he really had authority over the Siren facility?
Fortunately, the company quickly realized what was going on and speculated and analyzed:
"Could it be because of the identity assigned to the commander in the virtual world? This is the only explanation."
The company's words suddenly made Lin Lan realize that it was really possible.
The host will of the Rubik's Cube energy robot came to him as a maid as soon as he entered Utopia. If he was not given extremely high authority, who else could have such treatment?
Although he still didn't know why the host gave him this permission, in any case, the entrance to the giant tower was now open, and they had no reason not to go in and find out.
So Lin Lan looked at Helena and said:
"Helena, you and Akashi continue to monitor the tower outside. If there is any sudden change, please contact us immediately through the communication channel. The others can go in with me."
Although it is not known whether there is any danger in the giant tower.
But Lin Lan felt that since the giant tower was released from defense because of his arrival, there was probably a place inside that needed to verify his authority.
Moreover, with Anchorage and Eldridge by his side, and the other White Eagle main ship girls, his risk of making a mistake can be reduced to almost zero.
So he decided to enter the tower himself.
"Okay commander, if there is any emergency, we will inform you immediately."
Helena also figured this out and nodded solemnly to Lin Lan.
After clarifying the division of labor, the five White Eagle heavy cruiser girls, led by Wichita, Portland, Indianapolis, Baltimore and Bremerton, took the initiative to clear the way. Lin Lan and others followed closely and entered the giant tower. .
As soon as he entered the mechanical corridor of the giant tower, Lin Lan felt as if he had returned to the Siren stronghold where he was imprisoned. The style was so similar.
There are no extra facilities or objects. You can see the corridor at the end, which is very cold.
Except for the faint blue pipeline lights on the surrounding walls, the entire mechanical corridor does not have any room doors, as if this corridor has no extra space except at the end.
The bespectacled lady, the aircraft carrier Shangri-La, sent her little eagle to the front to explore the way, and soon she reported to Lin Lanhui:
"Commander, there is a very spacious space at the end of the corridor. No enemies have been found."
Lin Lan nodded after learning this information. It would be good if there were no enemies.
If an enemy really appeared in such a narrow corridor, he might not be able to deploy all the equipment of the White Eagle ship girls.
Of course, the Siren Executor's ship uniform is probably the same.
This was the reason why he dared to follow him into the giant tower.
No one chatted too much and looked around the corridor warily as they moved forward. Even Santiago was unusually quiet.
About a few minutes later, Wichita and the others who were walking at the front finally walked out of this mechanical corridor and came to the spacious space Shangri-La had just mentioned.
"Wow, is it so cool?"
Lin Lan was still in the corridor when he heard Baltimore's exclamation in front of him.
And when they all walked out of the corridor, they couldn't help but be shocked by the spectacular scene in front of them.
This spacious space is a ring-shaped hall with a tall spire, surrounded by black metal walls flashing with blue lights and connected to thick black cables.
Lin Lan was amazed and raised his head to look upward.
The ends of the cables derived from these walls all converge on the dark blue platform at the top of this space.
And directly below this dark blue platform, there is a bright blue light beam, just like the one that just appeared outside, it is very gorgeous in this dark environment.
Being in such an environment is like entering a digital science fiction world.
After looking at everything here, Lin Lan also understood why Baltimore and the others were so surprised.
Even he himself didn't expect that the interior of this huge solid tower that looked like a solid one from the outside would turn out to be such a beautiful scene.
The only problem is that there doesn't seem to be anything special in this empty space.
Neither the imaginary energy facilities nor the host equipment appeared.
At this time, Ingraham, who was holding an instrument like a remote control in his hand, suddenly frowned and spoke, breaking the quiet atmosphere:
"Commander, there is something wrong with the energy index of the Rubik's Cube in this space."
"Rubik's cube energy index?"
The words of the young White Eagle engineer attracted the attention of Lin Lan and other White Eagle ship girls. Ingrahan looked at the instrument in his hand and continued:
"Yes, the energy concentration of the Rubik's Cube in the air here is three times higher than that of the outside world. It is similar to the energy concentration of the Rubik's Cube in the Builder's Core Data Tower."
Georgia slapped her head and said to Lin Lan in surprise:
"No wonder I always feel a familiar feeling after entering here. Commander, the environment here is exactly the same as before... Ah, yes, you should have been fighting us through the screen of your mobile phone at that time, haha."
Lin Lan understood what Georgia meant and showed a thoughtful expression.
Previously, in the finale of the game's large-scale event Rainbow, under the organization of Frederick the Great, the combined fleets from all camps destroyed the builder's core data tower.
As the commander of the White Eagle camp, the player also entered the core data tower through the screen of his mobile phone under the protection of Georgia and Eldridge.
This is also the reason why he knows the horror of the partial cleanup process. After all, he was watching the game from a VIP perspective at that time.
Looking at it this way, it is indeed the host data tower of the Rubik's Cube Energy Robot.
But the problem is that he and the White Eagle Ship girls can't possibly destroy this place like they did in that battle.
At this time, Shangri-La's bald eagle also flapped its wings from the air and landed on the bespectacled girl's arm.
"Commander, the platform above is blocked by a transparent barrier, and the little eagle cannot pass through."
After hearing what Shangri-La, who was preening the feathers of the bald eagle, said, Lin Lan thought for a moment and turned his attention to the faint blue light pillar in the center of the space.
"It seems that the entrance to the giant tower opened just now after I was hit by this beam of light. Maybe..."
Lin Lan recalled what happened outside the giant tower, thought for a moment, and decided to walk into the beam of light again.
But this time he didn't plan to take the risk alone, but called all the ship girls to follow him into the beam.
There is obviously nothing of value here. Based on his understanding of the Siren's architectural style, the beam is likely to have the function of teleporting or moving areas.
There is strength in numbers. Anyway, with so many White Eagle ship girls around him, even if he is really transported to the abyss, he will still have the confidence to fight his way out.
What's more, the probability is very slim. If this is really to lure them into the trap set up, it will not activate such a strong defense module outside the giant tower.
Let the company use the communicator to inform Helena outside the giant tower of the discovery. After ensuring smooth communication, the White Eagle ship girls followed Lin Lan and walked into this faint blue light pillar.
Fortunately, the range of this beam of light is large enough, several times larger than the beam outside the giant tower, and it is completely enough for so many people to stand in it together.
"The number of people has been confirmed and the transportation platform has been launched."
When Wuwei, who was walking at the end, also stepped into the light pillar, the mechanical sound outside the giant tower sounded again, but this time the sound was louder than outside the giant tower.
Everyone soon noticed a vibration under their feet. Soon, the ground within the circle of the circular light pillar slowly rose, rising slowly upwards.
"It turns out this is an elevator. I thought it was some kind of transmission device."
Mori walked to the edge of the lifting platform, looked at the ground getting farther and farther away from them, smiled and breathed a sigh of relief.
After hearing the words of his old partner Frigate, the company did not relax at all, but said with some concern:
"Don't let down your guard. If the elevator is going to go up to the platform on the top floor, it would be quite painful to fall from this height."
As an old civil servant, Lin Lan also nodded with deep sympathy and told his White Eagle girls:
"The company is right. I don't know who has a big heart to design this lifting platform. It doesn't even have edge protection around it. It would be really serious if it slips and falls."
"Commander~ This platform is so large, no one will take the initiative to jump to the edge~"
Santiago smiled and said that this design seemed normal to her.
"Well, this is generally the case, but everything has unexpected circumstances, so take precautions before they happen."
Seeing that it had been a while since the lifting platform reached the top, Lin Lan also started talking and said with a smile:
"For example, some games like to set up a bunch of airborne enemies to fight the protagonist after the protagonist enters this kind of elevator. If the protagonist is not operated properly, the protagonist may be knocked down and killed by the terrain."
"Commander, wouldn't it be a bit unlucky for you to talk about this kind of topic here..."
Hearing him talking, Baltimore helplessly laughed and complained.
Everyone is really in the kind of environment the commander mentioned. If a siren really takes the opportunity to launch an attack and destroy the lifting platform, they may really be killed by the terrain.
However, Baltimore's pink-haired sister Bremerton heard Lin Lan mention the game again, and curiously approached Lin Lan and asked with a smile:
"I didn't realize it before, Commander, do you really like playing games so much?"
Wuwei also cast a thoughtful look at Lin Lan, touched his chin and said:
"Yes, after Bremerton said this, I discovered that the commander is also very familiar with science fiction movies in addition to games. At the military base, you could tell at a glance the effect of the cloak buttons I made based on the movies. "
Hearing Bremerton and Wuwei both say this about herself, Lin Lan couldn't help but be stunned and asked doubtfully:
"No, then in your eyes, who was I before and what were my hobbies?"
