Chapter 498: Safe House 2

When the fingerprint scan passed, the interior lighting of the elevator leading to the Safe House below had already turned on.

Sun Cheng frowned slightly, but said nothing.

This elevator is not spacious; it can accommodate at most four people at once, and that is only if they stand chest-to-back.

But this was also out of consideration for concealment; after all, to build a Safe House beneath an already constructed villa, one had to avoid various infrastructure within the residential complex and the villa, such as underground fiber-optic cables, sewage and drainage pipes, gas and floor heating pipes, etc., so space was naturally limited.

Taking Fuchou into that not-so-spacious elevator, Sun Cheng looked around inside carefully for a moment.

The structure of this elevator is very simple, and there are no flashy things inside; the only things controlling the elevator's ascent and descent are four buttons on the left wall, which are 【Open Door】, 【Close Door】, 【Up】, and 【Down】.

He first pressed the close door button, and saw two thin alloy doors quickly spring out from both sides.

Immediately after pressing the down button, Sun Cheng suddenly felt a brief sensation of weightlessness, and the elevator descended downward at once; before he could even collect his thoughts, it had already stopped.

"Although it is only about thirty meters from the ground, ordinary explosives can no longer affect this place."

After pressing the open door button, the elevator's thin alloy doors immediately sprang open, revealing an empty room that did not look very large.

"Whew!"

Perhaps because he was already accustomed to Cybertronian architecture, when Sun Cheng arrived in this room located more than thirty meters underground, where the floor, walls, and ceiling were all built from a bright silver alloy, a sense of security suddenly arose in his heart.

When the elevator door opened, the lighting facilities on the ceiling of the room had already turned on, which was why he could see everything in the room clearly.

The room he exited from the elevator was not large, at most five meters long, about four meters wide, and about three meters high.

However, the room was completely empty; let alone tables, chairs, or benches, one could not even see a single piece of paper.

The Safe House that Sun Cheng designed himself naturally could not have only this much space.

In fact, this was indeed the case; this room at the elevator entrance was only one-fourth of the Safe House.

Without needing Sun Cheng to give instructions, after Fuchou walked into the room, he did not stop at all and arrived at the other side directly facing the elevator entrance, where there was an inconspicuous single door that, like the elevator entrance, required him to use a fingerprint or iris scan to pass.

The empty room had nothing worth looking at, so he did not stay long in this room of only about twenty square meters; he just checked it slightly, walked to that door, used his fingerprint to verify again, and entered the second room.

Like the first room, this room was exactly the same as the previous one in terms of both area and the materials used for construction.

Sun Cheng was not surprised by this, because these first two rooms were specifically reserved by him during the initial design so that he could buy himself some time if he needed to evacuate in the event the Safe House was exposed.

Soon, after using his fingerprint to verify again and passing through the security door in the second room to enter the third room, Sun Cheng looked around, and only then did he stop with satisfaction.

The real Safe House had arrived!

From a human perspective, this could definitely be considered a very spacious room.

To facilitate construction, this room also adopted a design and construction materials similar to the previous ones; the overall layout was rectangular, but the area was much larger, about twenty meters long, ten meters wide, and about four meters high.

Like the two small rooms in front, it was also exceptionally empty inside, but it was not completely devoid of anything.

In one corner of the more than two-hundred-square-meter space, dozens of large crates were stacked, and in the very center of the Safe House, fourteen Engineering Robots of various models were standing quietly, motionless, as if they had lost their energy.

They were the heroes that had built this underground Safe House from scratch over the past twenty-plus days; they were the Engineering Robots Sun Cheng had brought back from the 【Transformers Universe】 in his previous trips.

In order to keep it as secret as possible and prevent this Safe House from being exposed.

The soil, bricks, and other construction waste excavated during the previous construction of the Safe House were all packed into crates by the Engineering Robots, and then Sun Cheng used the Spherical Space to take them out and dump them; all the materials used for construction were also transported by him using the Spherical Space.

It can be said that without that miraculously extraordinary Spherical Space, unless he did not care about exposure, it would have been impossible to build such a large Safe House underground in just over twenty days.

"Very good, very nice!"

When he returned to the real world last time, although Sun Cheng had come several times to move construction waste and transport materials, at that time this place was still in the early stages of construction, and even when he came in to transport construction materials for the last time, the elevator had not yet been installed.

At a distance of nearly thirty meters, he had relied entirely on a nylon rope ladder to climb up and down, and the inside was pitch black; if not for the lighting equipment on the Engineering Robots, he would not have been able to see anything.

Therefore, today was the first time Sun Cheng saw the true face of the Safe House after its completion.

A space of more than two hundred square meters was already large enough.

The Safe House is located thirty meters underground; it is impossible for ordinary people to discover this place.

Sun Cheng had long planned for this place to be used as his emergency command center in reality for a period of time in the future, until Base No. 1 was completely built.

Thanks to his lack of a sense of security, the Safe House has a perfect defense system.

Its outermost layer is a half-meter-thick layer of reinforced concrete, with all the steel bars being the reinforced steel used at Base No. 2, and even the cement was composite cement he purchased in the real world; behind that is a twenty-centimeter-thick layer of reinforced alloy plating, and the main space also has six alloy pillars equipped with shock absorbers, so as long as it is not a large Bunker-busting Missile or a strong earthquake of magnitude eight or higher in Nandu, ordinary explosives will not be able to affect this place even if they explode directly above it.

The Safe House has an independent power supply, central air conditioning, and a perfect ventilation system.

After a period of time, once the debugging is complete, Sun Cheng will also deploy a few of the latest Combat Robots he just transferred from Base No. 2 before returning this time to the Safe House.

Once he finds time to purchase a batch of emergency reserve supplies, such as food, drinking water, canned goods, and the like to store here, he believes that hiding for a few months will not be a problem.
