There is only one problem with those elevators, that is, there is no electricity.

It's normal to think about it. Keningmis has been destroyed by a disaster for more than ten years. Even if there are generators that can operate on their own and have robot maintenance, they are now unable to play a role due to lack of energy.

——This place is not like Dajiang City, which is the ruins of Swamp No. 1, and does not have sufficient hydraulic resources.

"Then you can only choose to take the stairs." As an intelligent robot, Gnava will not feel frustrated because of this.

"No, no, no." Shang Jianyao shook his head, "There is another choice."

His face under his protective mask smiled.

He then raised his hand and pointed at the elevators:

“You can also climb the cable directly.”

Gnava immediately assessed the feasibility:

“For me, there is no problem with that.

"For normal humans, the risk is very high and the completion may be very low, but if you have military exoskeleton assistance, there should be no difficulties."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shang Jianyao started to deny himself:

"It's better to take the stairs, maybe you can catch more corpses."

Gnava's eyes flashed a few times, and no sound was made.

Shang Jianyao's eyes swept over the two open elevators, and suddenly jumped and "flyed" into one of them.

He and the weight of the military exoskeleton device made the car sink significantly and shook it a few times.

"Be careful!" Gnava quickly reminded.

The elevators here have been abandoned for more than ten years, so no one knows whether the cable will break due to such behavior.

Shang Jianyao did not answer, lowered his head and measured every inch of space in the elevator with his feet.

In just a few seconds, he said disappointedly:

"No corpse."

Gnava understood the meaning of his behavior and knew that he was worried that the overlap with the "New World" might cause some parts of the apartment to look empty, but in fact they have hidden mystery.

This easily made Shang Jianyao miss his father's clues.

After checking another elevator, Shang Jianyao walked towards the stairs with regret.

There are no lights here, it's dark.

As the light of the flashlight shone in, the mottled stairs appeared in the eyes of Shang Jianyao and Gnava.

"Apart from looking worn, it's quite clean." Shang Jianyao was amazed.

Gnava's eyes flashed with red light:

"Maybe the electromagnetic environment in this area is too chaotic, causing the dust outside to fail to enter.

"The specific principle is..."

Shang Jianyao turned his head, looked at his companion, and interrupted his words in a sad tone:

"Old Ge, at this time you just need to say 'Yes, yes,'."

Gnava failed to analyze the reasons, but chose to cooperate:

"good."

The two of them climbed up the stairs and walked step by step towards the top.

It can be seen that outside the stairwell on each floor, the lights are bright, and a bright area is drawn through the cracks in the door.

Shang Jianyao, who is cautious and cautious, did not choose to directly cross similar areas. He bypassed what he could and could not bypass. He simply used the stair handrail to climb to the upper floor.

Gnava follows the example.

They dare not bet that they will not be discovered without being "seeing" by the "New World" powerful people or other creatures that may exist on every floor.

The cowardly but cautious Shang Jianyao suspected that the light was actually the manifestation of the spirit of those strong people. At the source of the problem of overlapping, touching the light was the same as singing loudly next to other people's ears, and there was no way to hide it.

As for why there are only lights and no figures on the first floor, he doesn't know.

Going up so slowly, Shang Jianyao always restrained his human consciousness and only relied on the light of the flashlight specially tuned to a weak state to illuminate the road ahead.

On the way, he and Gnava found several more bodies.

The few on the lower floors also only had clothes, and their bodies were empty, and they had obviously been plundered by the Eighth Institute. However, the few found after half of the floors had some personal items in their pockets.

Through their clothes and items, Gnava clearly judged that these were all employees of "Pangu Biology" and members of the previous old team.

With the help of bone characteristics and item situation, another conclusion can also be concluded:

These are not Shang Jianyao's father.

"It's just personal belongings..." Shang Jianyao, who was squatting on the stairs on one knee, handed all the things found on the body in front of him to Gnava, with an undisguised disappointment in his tone.

Gnava knew that he wanted to find corresponding clues from those items, but unfortunately, they were either compressed biscuits, chocolates, candies, and other items that were convenient and quick to replenish energy, or pistols, bullets and other self-defense items.

"Maybe the management of that team is very strict, and members are not allowed to record information privately, so as not to be obtained by others after they are separated." Gnava stuffed the items he took into his backpack.

"Yes." Shang Jianyao stood up, picked up the "Berserker" assault rifle again, and walked up the stairs.

As he walked, he suddenly staggered.

"Be careful." Gnava learned from humans and expressed concern in reminding ways.

"It's okay." Shang Jianyao first comforted Gnava, and then said, "I should have been hit by the ability of the awakened one."

"Is this okay?" Gnava's eyes flashed violently but still couldn't understand.

Shang Jianyao did not stop his steps:

"This ability feels weak and has no obvious impact on me.

"And, although I was hit by the ability, I did not sense the enemy's consciousness."

Normally, ability to affect a person means establishing a connection with the person, and it will no longer be able to hide human consciousness from the other party's sensing, unless it can be interrupted before the enemy discovers, hide again, or be outside the target sensing range.

The former can be temporarily ruled out because Shang Jianyao's pace is not very stable, and it seems nothing is wrong with the assistance of military exoskeleton devices. The latter means that the hidden awakened person is much stronger than Shang Jianyao, but this is more inconsistent with the weak ability effect.

"A little strange." Gnava responded with a slightly synthesized voice.

Shang Jianyao smiled and said:

"It's okay, it's not too far away from the top floor. Let's just ignore anything else. Hurry up, time, go up..."

As he spoke, his tongue seemed to grow bigger and his body shaking, making it difficult to maintain balance.

Shang Jianyao was not surprised but happy and said loudly:

"This is very similar to the "drunk" ability that Dabai, Xiaohong, Xiaobai and the others have encountered!

"Is it the eighth, the awakened person of the Institute, hiding nearby?

"But she should be weaker than me!"

Gnava understood what he meant—there was no reason that he could not sense the other person’s human consciousness and was passively beaten.

Before Gnava could respond, Shang Jianyao fell to the ground with a clang.

"I'm drunk, my head is still dizzy and painful..." He murmured to himself.

Then, he began to switch the behavior patterns of military exoskeleton devices, turning "assistance" into "dominate".

Equipment-led, "autonomous driving".

As the command was entered, Shang Jianyao "standed" and continued to steadily along the stairs towards the top floor.

Although he is still in a "drunk" state, this has no effect on his actions at all.

"Cheese, that's the power, Lao Ge..." Shang Jianyao's tongue was so big that he was a little confused.

At this moment, a rope sandwiched on the glass window of the stairwell swayed in the wind.

On a dark night, it was like a dancing venomous snake.

Shang Jianyao's eyes froze, and his whole body was in a state of wanting to twist his body and run away wildly.

But the military exoskeleton device stopped him.

The command received by this equipment has not been changed yet, and it judges that a rope is not threatening!

"No!" Shang Jianyao screamed, and was "hijacked" by military exoskeleton devices and continued to go upstairs.

The closer he got to the rope, the more he screamed, and at the end, he even shouted loudly:

"Old Ge, save me!"

Gnava analyzed some possibility and chose to follow and not speak.

Finally, Shang Jianyao passed the glass window of the stairwell and no longer had to see the shaking rope.

He suddenly calmed down.

After a few seconds, he was so excited that he didn't dare to turn around at all:
To be continued...
