Tokusatsu: How come this knight drama is different?!

Chapter 307 Underground Base

Izumi doesn't know whether Yuche was really this despicable before.

However, her original longing for You Che is now completely gone.

Yuche and Izumi walked forward against the yellow sand, chatting about what was happening on Izumi's side.

The main thing is that we've already talked about everything here. As for what's going on underground, rather than telling Imurri everything, it's better to let her go and see for herself.

After moving forward for more than an hour, what the audience saw was simply a change of camera angles.

Yuche and Izuri arrived at the entrance of an air-raid shelter.

“These things used to be used to hide inside the mountains, but the environment has become increasingly harsh, and you know how it is with government officials, you can’t really count on them. So most of these underground bases were built by ordinary people like us.”

As Yuche spoke, he opened the door and then gestured for Tsumuri to jump down.

Tsumuri untied the rope and glanced down. It was about two meters below, not too high, so she jumped down.

With a soft thud, there was a soft mat on the ground. As Tsumuri stepped on it, a cloud of sand suddenly rose up around her, floating in the air like smoke.

You Che closed the door before coming down.

Otherwise, if left unattended for even a day, the area below will be filled with sand.

He groped along the wall with his palm, and with a thud, light appeared in the dim underground.

Yuche pulled Tsumuri and pushed open a large door, leading them into a room that had nothing but another door.

The two went inside, and then a strong gust of wind blew violently up and down on them. At the same time, the floorboards opened up, revealing holes that looked like vacuum cleaners.

The holes weren't big, each only about the size of a human thumb. Soon, most of the yellow sand on Yuche and Tsumuri was gone.

The two then walked through the next door.

This is a bathroom...

Tsumuri immediately turned to look at Yuche.

You Che shrugged: "This is a single room, ladies first. You go take a shower first."

Izuri thought for a moment and said to Yuche, "This is my first time here and I don't know how to use it. Can you teach me..."

Yu Che chuckled and rubbed his hands together, about to say something when Tsumuri interrupted him, saying, "But I can't possibly shower with you, don't even dream about it!"

Yu Che pursed his lips and muttered, "What a waste of water," before teaching Tsumuri how to use the bathroom's equipment.

Soon, Tsumuri finished washing.

However, because she had to wait for You Che, she didn't leave. She stayed there for more than ten minutes, listening to You Che's terrifying singing voice while her expression twitched...

After showering, the two changed into formal attire. You Che pressed down on the door leading to the underground base, then suddenly pulled it open...

A blinding light appeared, and Tsumuri raised her hand to shield her eyes...

The two passed through the heavy iron gate and then saw a magnificent building.

Have you seen the underworld of Gambling Apocalypse?

This is an underground space that is more than ten times more magnificent than that underground world.

According to You Che, this could only be considered a small underground base.

This underground space is a three-dimensional structure resembling a hollow, circular cylinder. The place where Tsumuri and Yutsu are is a point on the cylindrical wall surrounding this space. There are many such points, and there is more than one entrance to this underground space.

Meanwhile, above the underground base, the sky was a clear blue, dotted with white clouds, and a fiery red sun.

The sun was just too red; you could tell at a glance it wasn't real.

Tsumuri looked up at the radiant blue sky, white clouds, and red sun that were all fake, and her eyes inexplicably welled up with tears.

Yu Che walked over with his hands in his pockets and calmly said, "Although adults ten years ago still knew what the sun and sky looked like, children born in recent years don't even know what the sun looks like anymore. Ha, those little brats really think the sun is red when it hangs in the sky~"

For some reason, Tsumuri felt a tightness in her chest.

Turning her gaze away from the top of the base, Tsumuri looked around.

Beneath the cylinders stood rows of tall buildings—yes, tall buildings, and they shone brightly. Humans have an almost instinctive longing for light.

In a pitch-black place, where you can't see your hand in front of your face, even the faintest light of a firefly is enough to attract a human's attention. Following that tiny glimmer of light, they move forward toward the place of light they long for.

And if the fireflies' light leads humanity to even darker places, that's alright too.

At least, along this journey, humanity has had the light to accompany it.

Well, actually, there's no need for sentimentality at all, since most things here are actually better than in reality...

Yuche led Izumi along the edge of the underground base to an elevator. Seeing the number 13F above, Izumi roughly knew that this should be the 13th floor.

Most of the buildings in the underground world are only three or four stories high, so it's quite normal to stand there and look down.

When the elevator doors opened again, a cacophony of noise immediately engulfed the elevator.

One by one, the figures stood at the elevator door. When Yuche and Izumi appeared in front of them, they immediately became excited and started chattering and shouting at Yuche and Izumi.

Tsumuri's head was buzzing instantly.

All she heard was about gifts, gains, and who she was...

You Che raised his hand and pressed it down in the air with great style, and the adults and children around him immediately quieted down.

You Che grabbed a handful of candy from the Knight's Space and threw it to the area with the most children, who rushed over to grab it.

As for adults, You Che doesn't need to use any tricks.

"Where is Dr. Nakamori? I have something very important to discuss with her," Yu Che asked the others.

"You were in the lab, why did you come back so quickly this time? Did you not find anything?" An old man looked at You Che with a worried expression.

You Che has been here for three months, and each time he goes out, he stays for at least a week. This time, he returned in less than two days, which naturally worries the residents of these underground bases.

Yu Che grinned and pointed at Izuri with his thumb: "Don't worry, Uncle Miyamoto, this is my biggest gain from this trip."

"Let's go, don't worry about it. Uncle Miyamoto and the others are all very nice people. Let's go to the lab to find Dr. Nakamori first. Her abilities are top-notch worldwide. If it weren't for those idiot officials, she might still be stuck at the official base."

Tsumuri nodded blankly; she hadn't really been listening to Yu Che's words.

Because she clearly saw that among the children grabbing the candy, several of them were holding meat pies that she recognized very well.

Hmm, watching the children happily munching on the meat patties, Tsumuri fell silent.

You Che was absolutely right; that stuff is actually a pretty good source of meat for the people here...

Chapter 308 Dr. Nakamori

Most adults have their own things to do.

Even after arriving at the underground base, the adults still have to work.

It could even be said that it was precisely because they came to the underground base that everyone needed to work even harder to survive.

Above this place used to be the central commercial street of a bustling city, so basically everything is on the ground, well, except that most of the food is expired.

As the environment deteriorated, the neighborhood committee realized that expecting official assistance was simply a pipe dream.

So the residents put their heads together and decided that since the officials wouldn't come to rescue them, and they didn't want to die, they took out all their money to buy supplies and equipment. It took them three years to build this underground base. Construction began seven years ago and was completed five years ago, after which people gradually moved down.

It can only be said that when faced with threats and pressures to survival, human beings' practical abilities are truly MAX.

The funny thing is that when they were building their underground base, the local officials not only didn't help, but also obstructed them in every way. After the underground base was completed, they shamelessly said that they were officials and could continue to manage everyone underground. Then, the residents of the underground city held a referendum against their entry.

It's not that no officials are coming in, but these people have to have a good reputation.

And thinking you can sit in an office every day after you come in is simply absurd. The biggest danger in these underground spaces is earthquakes, and as for the earthquakes around here, they happen all the time...

Therefore, as long as they were able to move, they spent their days either procuring survival supplies or reinforcing the base's foundation.

Even though Uncle Miyamoto is over fifty years old, he still has to work.

In this underground base, you can forget about not working.

Fortunately, the world's basic technology is not bad. Machines such as oxygen generators can be bought, and they are not expensive. The only problem is energy. The city's energy comes from a reactor, which is actually a fusion reactor. To use it, you have to insert an energy bar. The first energy bar is almost used up, and the remaining two can last for at most another ten years.

Therefore, they either need to handle the energy bar issue themselves or find someone who can.

Well, how should I put it? Youche couldn't handle it before, but now it's different. The data-driven Az in his mind memorized all the relevant knowledge here in less than a week after arriving.

Now Yuche can rely on Yaz to manually assemble the reactor.

pity……

There are no materials...

The strength requirements for the materials specified in the document are ridiculously high; their small town definitely can't handle them.

Hearing Yu Che talk about the officials who wanted to come in but were turned away, Tsumuri felt much better.

Then she looked to the side and was quite surprised: "There's a park here?"

That was a sign pointing to a park.

You Che shrugged: "There's not only a park but also a football field. Anyway, there's enough space here. There are only about 10,000 people in total. Such a large space is not enough to fill all the rooms. It's better to give some space to the children so they can release their energy."

Tsumuri nodded and said "Oh," probably realizing that the underground base was a little different from what she had imagined.

At least this place is definitely not terrible.

Although the food was really not very good...

Yuche led Tsumuri to a building in the middle of the underground base.

This is the largest underground base in terms of construction area and the tallest building, with a laboratory spanning eight floors.

Yes, this is where Dr. Nakamori is.

You Che went up and pressed the doorbell. Soon, the door opened automatically.

Yu Che led Izumi inside, and as soon as she entered, she felt as if she had entered a very high-tech laboratory.

Because it is highly intelligent.

An AI housekeeper also greeted the two of them.

"Welcome, Mr. Yu Che. It has been two months, one day, 17 hours, 23 minutes and 25 seconds since your last visit. And this lady, who is probably not very popular with Dr. Nakamori."

Tsumuri pointed at herself, somewhat bewildered: "Huh? Me?"
