Chapter 150 FX0962045 Fuxi Project
Chen Jian's premonition was not groundless. Compared to Ji Xing's pure intuition, his logic was actually clearer.

At least he has some basis for this.

First, the entire Anqing city has been almost completely looted, and most of the useful materials have been taken away. If there are things left, it proves that in the eyes of the Mechanicus, that thing is of little use.

Secondly, from the nature of the Circle Chamber of Commerce, what they pursue are those "high-tech products" in the true sense, which tend to be "theoretically advanced".

And this kind of thing is crucial no matter what era it is in.

This air force base can be said to be the safest underground fortification within the entire Anqing ruins. If such a thing really exists, it would be quite reasonable to store it here.

However, Chen Jian really couldn't figure out what that thing could be.

Perhaps, it itself does not exist in the era that one is familiar with.

To find it, relying on empirical reasoning is no longer useful.

We must find a way to find substantial records to check what happened here on the day of the catastrophe.

Thinking of this, Chen Jian asked:
"He Shuo, do you know where the files of the 10th Air Division are managed?"

Hearing this, He Shuo frowned and thought for a moment, then replied:

"In theory, the archives of the 2020th Air Division are managed in an independent archive management office. Around , the th Air Division set up a combat readiness archive management office to specifically manage combat readiness training archives."

"But I think that searching the paper files of the 10th Air Division is unlikely to yield anything."

"The catastrophe happened in such a short time that there was no time left for them to archive electronic documents in paper form."

"Useful information should still be in the system, but the entire system has collapsed. If we want to find out anything, it may be more difficult than reactivating a nuclear bomb."

"That's not necessarily the case."

Chen Jian shook his head and said:
"We are not looking for records from that day, but records from a few days before the catastrophe."

"If something highly classified is sent in, the files should be archived."

"The filing cycle of combat files is within three days. The transportation and storage of important equipment are also combat tasks. How could there be no files?"

"It makes sense, but it doesn't make sense."

Lei Jie on the side interrupted:
"There should be archives, but more than three hundred years have passed. How many of them can be preserved?"

"The archives room is on the second floor. We checked it when we passed by, and the things inside were basically completely decayed."

"Don't even think about checking them one by one. I think if I just touch them, they will turn to dust."

"At least take a look first. Let's go."

Chen Jian made a prompt decision and several others followed suit.

After leaving the third underground floor, everyone walked into the archive room on the second underground floor with its door wide open. The situation there was even worse than Lei Jie had described.

All paper documents have long since decayed and turned into dust.

There was almost no written information left, and the few words that could be barely recognized on some piles of paper were meaningless.

Chen Jian sighed in disappointment and was about to say something, but Shen Yue, who was searching deep in the archives room, suddenly spoke.

"Captain! This way!"

Chen Jian walked up to him and looked up. The category labels engraved in metal on the filing cabinet in front of him were still clearly visible.

"FX0962045".

Chen Jian frowned slightly and said:

"2045 is the time, 096 should be the institute number, and FX is the project name code."

"Records of the FX engineering project led by Institute 096 in 2045?"

"What's inside?"

".Air."

Shen Yue pointed to the open filing cabinet door and said:
"The bad news is that all the files have been moved or destroyed in advance."

"The good news is, we found the right one."

"At least now, we know the engineering code name of the thing that disappeared."

"It's impossible for us to find out what it is, but maybe someone from the Circle Chamber of Commerce knows?"

"really."

Chen Jian nodded slowly.

"This is the only clue - find a way to find them and ask them clearly."

"Now, we need to scrape the dirt out of here."

"Put aside things that are too far away first, and grasp the things that are in front of you first."

"What should we do with these nuclear bombs? Should we find a way to transport them away, or seal off the entrance and activate them later?"

"I suggest sealing the entrance."

He Shuo raised his hand and said:
"We don't have the ability to transport all of this stuff right now, and it's not safe to hand it over to any third party for transportation. We won't be using it for the time being anyway, so we might as well seal it up first."

"Makes sense."

Chen Jian nodded again and then looked at Lei Jie.

"Is there any way to completely seal off this underground space, but still leave ourselves an entrance?"

".The easiest way is to find a gatekeeper, such as a monster."

"monster?"

Chen Jian's heart moved and an idea suddenly popped into his mind.

There was indeed a monster here, and it was a very powerful monster.

Is it possible that the monster is the so-called "gatekeeper"?
If this is true, then the secret here becomes even more confusing.
Chen Jian shook his head gently, dispelling his chaotic thoughts, and then said:
"It's not very realistic. Even if we can find it, it will take too long."

"Let's just close it off physically - is there any way?"

"Yes, but it would consume a lot of explosives, and we don't have much in stock."

"Use it first."

Chen Jian gave a decisive order, then waved his hand and led everyone to evacuate the underground fortifications.

Before leaving, Zeng Yi looked back several times reluctantly.

He was a little confused as to why Chen Jian chose not to take any of the equipment away after discovering such important equipment.

Even if we don’t take away those “nuclear bombs” that can create the sun, can we not take away those “fighter jets” too?

They are indeed no longer usable, but since you can repair the exoskeletons on your bodies, can't you repair an "airplane"?
When Lei Jie was deploying explosives and preparing to blow up the loose soil above the tunnel to cover the cave entrance, Zeng Yi raised his own questions.

Chen Jian replied with a smile:
"Repairing fighter jets is not a simple matter. Besides, the damage to the fighter jets here is so severe that a simple 'repair' will not be enough to restore their functionality."

"To make them move, we need a complete system, which is theoretically not much easier than rebuilding one."

"But why are you so interested in airplanes? Do you want to fly?"

As soon as Chen Jian finished speaking, before Zeng Yi could answer, Xie Liu on the side interrupted and said:
"Actually, I also want to try what it feels like to fly."

After he finished speaking, Chen Jian subconsciously turned to Ji Xing and Li Shi, and the two of them nodded and shook their heads respectively.

It was Ji Xing who nodded, and she immediately continued to explain:
"People like us who have holy blood have actually thought about actually flying."

"Because we can jump very high, but it's not true flying."

"To be honest, some people have tried this before. For example, they used the blood of some winged monsters to fuse the holy blood, trying to produce the next generation that can fly."

“But without exception, they all failed.”

".If you don't fail, you're going in the wrong direction."

Chen Jian spread his hands helplessly, and at this time, Lei Jie had already detonated the blasting charge.

"boom!"

"boom!"

Accompanied by several dull explosions, a large amount of humus accumulated above the tunnel collapsed and fell, blocking the cave entrance deeply.

From the surface, it is difficult to detect the tunnel buried under the loose soil with the naked eye.

This is certainly not the most perfect solution, but being able to do this is the limit for several people.

"Let's go."

Chen Jian said:

"We have obtained all the information here, but our work is not yet done."

"The blood skeletons have not been cleaned up yet. The equipment they left behind is also valuable."

“It’s time to really scrape the ground.”

"We have to completely wipe out this relic!"

"understand!"

In the next few days, Chen Jian's team traveled back and forth between the Anqing ruins and Anqing City no less than twenty times.

They searched the entire Anqing ruins like ants moving house.

Whenever they encountered a Terror Demon Squad, they would not let any of them go, and whenever they saw a Terror Demon Camp, they would not leave any of them behind. The style of the entire squad was to eat everything up, and the equipment they transported back to Anqing City was also very strange.

Black powder, single-shot rifles, low-quality bullets, scrap steel, useless electronic equipment, cables, batteries, expired food
Except for the large amount of dried meat made of unknown meat stored in the terror camp, which was burned, they basically moved away everything that could be moved.

In order to transport the goods more efficiently, they even hired a 20-person freight team to specialize in clearing and loading and unloading the debris.

The person in charge of the handover was the representative of the Ring Chamber of Commerce. After seeing their almost "insatiable" transportation operations, the stern representative who was originally stationed in the warehouse finally showed a wry smile on his face.

".If possible, do you want to demolish all the buildings in the Anqing ruins and sell them to us?"

Hearing his words, Chen Jian, who was busy selecting high-value items that he did not intend to sell from the pile of sundries, nodded and answered sincerely:
“If we have the ability, we will do so.”

"After all, this is a one-of-a-kind treasure."

"Except for us, no other force in the vicinity of the Anqing Ruins has the ability to conduct an in-depth search of this ruins that has obviously not been completely settled yet at a relatively low cost."

"For them, the act of scraping the land is inefficient and ineffective."

"But we are different. We are good at doing things like this."

"Do you know what this is called? It's called industry barriers."

".Been taught a lesson."

The representative nodded in agreement and then said:

"But you don't realize that the biggest obstacle for you to enter the ruins to search is not the Terror Demons, but the Flower City."

"After this conflict, the tension between the Mechanicus, the Holy Blood Temple and the Flower City has reached its peak."

"They are preparing for a possible attack from Huadu every day."

"They don't have time to think about these petty gains. What lies before them is a matter of life and death."

"Pull it down."

Chen Jian waved his hand nonchalantly and said:

"Flower City is not a threat to us at all - they are too far away and their delivery capability is too weak."

"The only offensive they can organize in the short term is the so-called mercenaries, and those mercenaries are not strong enough to defeat us, let alone break through the defenses of Yellowstone City."

".You are very conceited."

The representative sighed deeply, then said:
"But you do have the capital to be arrogant."

"Okay, this is the last batch, right?"

"The total value is 1 grams of gold. Do you want gold or goods?"

"I can give you a suggestion. It's best to ask for gold."

"Because after this war, you are already seriously short of basic supplies, such as bullets, shells and the like."

"And these things would be much more cost-effective to buy from the open market than from us."

"I see. Then I want gold."

Chen Jian nodded decisively, and then said:
"But we have another condition."

"What conditions?"

The representative asked curiously, and Chen Jian shook his head and replied:
"I will talk to Wang Lizi. Give us our gold first."

".So you mean that condition will not be deducted from the price of this transaction?"

"Of course, that's an additional condition."

Chen Jian answered as a matter of course.

".Okay. I'm only responsible for doing my part."

The representative did not hesitate too much and finally nodded in agreement.

Chen Jian also contentedly accepted the gold that the other party had carefully weighed, and loaded the selected supplies onto the cat cart with a back bucket.

These things are actually not uncommon.

It was mainly ammunition, but there were only more than a thousand 7.62mm bullets, 41 mortar shells, two 30mm automatic howitzer shells, 6 rocket launchers, and more than ten 35mm grenades.

A slightly "special" weapon is the extra-large caliber single-shot rifle that was modified from the barrel of an aircraft gun.

Chen Jian originally wanted to sell this thing, but after thinking it over carefully, he decided to transport it back to Yellowstone City and use it as a fixed artillery position.

Therefore, he placed a transfer order with the Yuanhuan Chamber of Commerce and handed over this "gun" to Huang Yu.

After everything was prepared, everyone left Anqing City.

Another stop on their route should have been Tongling City, but Chen Jian was not in a hurry to leave.

They made gestures to leave, then quietly circled back to the Anqing ruins.

After waiting there for 12 hours, Chen Jian finally got what he was waiting for.

It was a team that was obviously equipped with automatic firepower, which was considered well-equipped in this apocalyptic world.

A team appeared at the 10th Air Division base.

At this moment, his guess came true.

The target of the Ring Chamber of Commerce has never been the Anqing ruins, nor the terrifying demons within the Anqing ruins.

What they are looking for is the things in the 10th Air Division base!
They are really taking advantage of their small team.

But unfortunately, I was one step ahead of them in the end.

Chen Jian gave Shen Yue a look, and the latter understood what he meant and immediately started calling Wang Lizi on the radio using a specific frequency.

After a brief silence, Wang Lizi's reply came through his headphones.

"Mr. Chen, I'm here."

"You called me at this time, probably you have seen us."

"Maybe your drone is hovering above us, right?"

"Congratulations, you have learned how to answer quickly."

Chen Jian did not deny it, but continued:

"The Terror Demon was a cover. We can only say that they were unlucky to run into Huadu's plan."

"They just happened to be in your way."

"So, what exactly are you looking for there?"

".This information is not within the scope of our transaction."

Wang Lizi's tone was a little cold, but then, as if he suddenly realized that he was the passive party, he immediately softened his tone and continued:
".I mean, there's nothing here that would interest you."

"You should know that we have strictly enforced the contract and even provided additional assistance."

"We have a clear conscience about this transaction."

".Then your standards for having a clear conscience are shockingly low."

Chen Jian clicked his tongue twice and shook his head:

"Stop talking nonsense."

"I'm going to ask you a question now."

"FX0962045, what is it?"

silence.

After a long silence, Wang Lizi's reply suddenly came over the radio again.

He said in a serious tone:

"You've already been underground, haven't you?"

"The passage here was blown down by you guys."

"We will not hold you accountable, but I hope that whatever information you have, you will share it with us."

"You want to know what this code name stands for. Actually, we want to know too."

"This is why we have to go underground. There is no need for me to hide this from you."

"I hope you don't have to--"

"Don't talk nonsense."

Chen Jian interrupted Wang Lizi and asked again:
"FX0962045, what does it stand for?"

This time, Wang Lizi didn't let Chen Jian wait long.

He replied:

"We don't know what 096 stands for, but we know that 2045 stands for time."

"And FX stands for 'Fuxi'."

"Fuxi Project."
