#449 - Chapter 448 Underground Base

After everyone boarded the elevator, a familiar sensation of weightiness came over them.

Every time this happened, Qi Jing would gently bend over, trying to add the brain's descending speed to the elevator's ascending speed to create a buffer, to see if he could get rid of this feeling of being overweight.

Of course, when the elevator stopped, he would also predict the start time of its deceleration and stand on tiptoe to counteract the feeling of weightlessness.

Before awakening his abilities, Qi Jing hadn't succeeded once, but since gaining the physique of Spider-Man, he hadn't made a single mistake, no matter the quality of the elevator.

However, this time seemed a little different.

He bent over slightly as usual, but instead felt a sensation of weightlessness.

Just as he subconsciously wanted to start tiptoeing, Qi Jing realized something.

Shouldn't the elevator's start be accompanied by a feeling of being overweight? Could it be that he hadn't played this little game in a while and bent over too quickly?

He immediately returned to a standing position, but the feeling of weightlessness didn't disappear, instead becoming heavier and heavier.

Could it be that he had been bending over the whole time? And had been bending over for a few seconds, bending faster and faster?

Impossible, something's wrong!

Qi Jing immediately shifted his attention to his Observation Haki.

He discovered that the outside was not the company they had just been in, but a swamp, a swamp with no end in sight.

Their elevator was falling rapidly into the swamp!

Could there really be a space ability user? Pulling them down?

No, there was a black solid mud brick outside the elevator, isolating it from the real swamp, and the rope above hadn't broken either.

This was a complete elevator shaft, not the work of an ability user.

Could it be that the blonde receptionist was saying that the seventh floor was the seventh floor underground?

"What exactly does this company do?"

Tu Dudong and the others also felt that something was wrong with the elevator's direction, and he said with a confused look:

"I don't know, they seem to do everything, but it seems like they're always losing money."

Building hospitals, bathhouses, repairing water pipes, developing vegetables and fruits, selling solid mud potion at low prices, they did everything except let them get close to the company, it was impossible to find a more benevolent company.

But the existence of a company must have its profitable aspects, what can they possibly gain from here?

"The mud under the swamp has extreme stickiness and toxicity, and their company's potion can even solidify it, building an elevator shaft far exceeding a thousand meters, it's extraordinary."

Compared to what the Daly Yuzu Company was doing, Qi Jing was more concerned about its strength.

There weren't any Level 5 ability users, but there were definitely Level 4 ones, at least enough to kill a Sand City Hero who controlled sand in Mud City.

Could it be that this was a shareholder or a branch of the Dwarf Society? An evil company disguised as good people?

"Zha Yin, it looks like we'll be busy in a while."

Tan Zha Yin nodded:

"I suggest we act last, the terrain is extremely unfavorable, it's hard to make a move, and we don't know how many people are down there."

"Yeah, let's do that, if it really doesn't work, we can run away."

The elevator had been descending at a constant speed for a long time, according to Qi Jing's estimation, they were at least fifteen hundred meters below the surface, and his thousand-meter Observation Haki hadn't seen the end of the elevator shaft yet.

If he didn't have a Return Talisman, he would have broken open the elevator and run away by now.

Being this deep, just thinking about it made it clear that it wasn't something a few newbies like them could face directly.

"Speaking of which, this elevator is so simple, it doesn't even have any electronic equipment, shouldn't there be a surveillance camera installed normally?"

Tan Zha Yin said gloomily:

"Maybe it's disposable, just to throw us into the ground and end it all together, so they're saving costs."

After such a long descent, even if Tu Dudong had great anger in his heart, it had turned into fear.

Descending from the surface to a depth of more than a thousand meters underground, how could a seventeen-year-old boy not be afraid?

After hearing Tan Zha Yin's words, he imagined the scene of himself smashing into the ground at high speed, or falling into poisonous mud or the earth's magma, and his legs immediately began to tremble.

Qi Jing chuckled and picked up Tan Zha Yin's words to tease:

"Then we have to be ready to jump at any time."

"As long as you jump fast enough, the elevator can't kill you, right?"

Just as Tan Zha Yin finished speaking, Qi Jing immediately said in a deep voice:

"No need, the end is a thousand meters below."

His Observation Haki could already see the end of the elevator shaft.

Three to four thousand meters underground, the Daly Yuzu Company had built a huge underground base.

These bases had solidified mud as their outer shell, decorated with steel, and were built on three floors.

As for the size of each floor, he couldn't see it yet, but he guessed that it must exceed a thousand meters, which was his range of Observation Haki.

What were they trying to do?

What did they discover here that was worth them putting in so much effort?

His Observation Haki couldn't see it yet, if he wanted to know, he would have to wander around inside later.

"After going down, if your father is still alive, tell them that we are your friends, here to help you take revenge."

Tu Dudong nodded solemnly:

"Understood!"

According to Qi Jing's guess, his father shouldn't be dead.

If that Desert Hero was dead, there was no need to let him come into contact with the core of the Daly Yuzu Company, which was this mysterious underground base.

Sure enough, as soon as they opened the elevator door, another blonde beauty receptionist appeared in front of them, she said with a smile:

"Son of the Desert Hero, please follow me."

Could it be that his father really wasn't dead?

Tu Dudong pointed at Qi Jing questioningly:

"What about them?"

"Your friends can come along too."

"Oh, thank you."

Hearing the receptionist say this, Tu Dudong thanked her and followed her forward.

Qi Jing also silently followed behind.

He was using his Observation Haki to observe this base and roughly understood its work.

Digging, just digging, simply digging downwards.

These three floors were just a transfer station, they had already dug a very long distance downwards, a full dozens of holes several meters wide, and his Observation Haki couldn't see the end of them.

What exactly was down there?

Curiosity!

"Son!"

"Dad!"

Under the receptionist's guidance, they arrived at a place almost like a reception room.

As soon as he pushed open the door, Tu Dudong saw his father, whom he had been thinking about day and night, and his tense emotions were instantly released, tears streaming down his face.

"How come you're not dead!"

Bang!

"Why are you talking like that, brat! What do you mean how come I'm not dead, I just haven't been back for a few days and you're already hoping I'm dead?"

Tu Tan slapped the back of Tu Dudong's head, causing the two-meter-tall guy to lower his head instantly.

Tu Dudong didn't raise his head, muttering softly:

"It's good that you're not dead."

He quickly wiped away his tears, not wanting his father to see his red eyes.

At the same time, his face suddenly turned a little red.

As a young man, Tu Dudong didn't want his father to see his immature side, nor did he want to show his concern on his face.

But he had just cried.

Ah~ Why did he have to cry!
