Chapter 1196 - The Terminal Station of Line 0 (1/2)

“So, the legendary Subway Line 0 is just an underground city?”

As he stepped onto the concrete road covered by dust, Ding Liwei used the light scattered down from the skydome while he scanned through the dark streets.

Surprise was the emotion in his eyes, but behind the surprise, there was more disappointment in his emotion.

He was originally looking forward to a particular weapon hidden here, at least one powerful enough that it could get rid of CCCP and NAC.

But so far, disregarding any weapons, it was just towering high-rise buildings and empty streets.

This kind of scene was too common in the wasteland. If he must state the difference between the Shangjing above ground, then it must be the lack of zombies, mutants, and ugly nuclear craters.

No, certainly not just these…

Ding Liwei’s gaze carefully searched between the buildings on both sides of the street, for fear of missing a trace of detail.

“Or a city-sized fallout shelter. We just don’t know why there’s no one in this fallout shelter.” Wan Peng’s eyebrows were also written with disappointment. His looked away from the faded billboards as he muttered to himself, “Something must be wrong.”

More than one hundred P-series police power armors walked down the streets, and there were no other sounds.

High-rise buildings stood side by side, a prosperous scene, but at the moment they felt as depressing as tombstones, without the slightest sign of vitality. A dozen-kilometer-long maglev track spanned from above and divided the entire city into two.

Although no one lived here, it was indeed a city.

It was true no matter how you looked at the situation.

As for why Pan-Asia Cooperation decided to build such a city below Shangjing and why it had to be sealed for 50 years, no one knew. Or at least the person that knew was no longer on the planet…

If they did not come down from “above”, just standing here, it did not feel like the city was a kilometer under the surface.

The city’s distant area was covered by a thick layer of gray which caused the entire city to be surrounded by what looked like morning mist. Behind the mist, there seemed to be some sort of light source; a faint gleam that pierced through the mist and was sprinkled on to the streets.

It was precisely because of this that although located deep underground, the light was surprisingly sufficient, similar to cloudy days on the surface

The only flaw was that the distant grey gave off a depressing feeling.

“If I found this ‘heaven’ fifteen years ago, why build a wall? I would have just directly placed Pingan Street here. That would have saved us so much trouble.” Wan Peng’s eyes were fixated on the dead street as he grunted and said in a self-deprecating manner.

“It’s not too late. Do you want to pick a place to stay in?” Ding Liwei looked at him and said, grinning.

“I’ll pass. I was just joking.”

Although the place did not have any zombies or mutants, and without the need to worry about excessive radiation that would lead to growing another hand, it would not be long before people go insane in this kind of environment.

Just then, noises were heard in the distance.

It was not loud, but in this quiet city, it was conspicuous.

Everyone stopped and looked at the sky.

“What is that sound?” Ding Liwei frowned, opened the magnifying function on the eyepiece of the helmet, and fixed his eyes on the magnetic levitation track that spanned the city. Then, doubt appeared in his eyes. “That is not our train?”

“Obviously.” Wan Peng also noticed the anomaly in the sky and looked up at the track. “It seems that after I abandoned the train, someone repaired it.”

“Who is in the car?”

“Not our people,” Wan Peng shrugged and said.

That was enough information.

Ding Liwei did not speak, but gestured to the soldiers behind him and then pointed to the magnetic levitation track.
