Chapter 1,367: Not even our own people were spared (two chapters in one)

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Lin Fei gestured to the people behind him to indicate safety. Now the alien beasts in the Fujinuma area were busy escaping, and they had no time to care about the outsiders above and beside them.

As for those fluorescent tentacles, they were focused on catching large prey, and were equally uninterested in Lin Fei and his party.

The third level peak is the spiritual fluctuation of the third level peak! This time Lin Fei's perception clearly judged the strength of this creature.

The bodies of these fluorescent tentacles are definitely the top ones in the Fujinuma area. If the scope is expanded, it may be difficult to find something stronger than it in Malay.

"We're here, the stronghold is ahead!" Qi Zhimin grabbed the control levers on the left and right sides of the jetpack, as if he had discovered something.

Lin Fei followed his line of sight and saw a sea of ​​flowers growing on the vine marsh.

That's right, unlike the area he came from, the wave vines in front actually had a large number of pink and white flowers growing there. Lin Fei glanced around in mid-air and confirmed that only that area contained such a large number of flowers.

The distance kept getting closer, and the vague outline of a building gradually emerged in the sea of ​​flowers.

This stronghold stands on the shores of Fujinuma. It doesn't look as new as expected. It looks like the size of a regular villa, and it doesn't have a backyard or floors.

The base at the bottom of the stronghold was quite thick. Lin Fei could clearly see the path leading directly to the entrance of the stronghold and extending into the interior of Fujinuma. The neatly arranged several stone pillars of different sizes in the stronghold were eye-catching.

"Plop." The shoes stepped on the pool of water accumulated in the potholes on the steps, splashing a little water.

Lin Fei smelled the strange fragrance of flowers in the air and looked at the stone pillars in the stronghold.

They are not common cylinders, but reliefs with special shapes.

Although the specific appearance is difficult to identify, it can be clearly seen that each stone pillar here has a unique pattern, which should be some kind of local cultural symbol of Malay.

For example, the stone pillars closest to Lin Fei on both sides of the stronghold's main entrance. The relief on the stone pillar on the left looks like a dolphin looking back with its head raised, while the lower part of the stone pillar on the right has been completely eroded, and only a faint figure can be seen on the top.

Unique head.

Others in the team approached one after another. Compared to the dangerous Fujinuma, the stronghold in front of them gave people a sense of security.

After landing, the group of people ran inside without hesitation. Lin Fei, who was originally in the first place, fell directly to the end.

Looking at the fluorescent tentacles still raging behind, Lin Fei could only step up to keep up in order not to miss the investigation team's actions.

I heard Wang Zhui say before that the stronghold on the island was built fifty years ago. Over the years, no more than ten investigation teams have performed missions here, so nothing is stored inside.

Because there had been no maintenance for a long time, it was not surprising that when Lin Fei walked into the gate of the stronghold, he saw ruins.

The top of the stronghold was severely damaged, and rain curtains falling from the sky could be seen everywhere. The investigation team did not disperse, but went straight to the center of the stronghold.

As expected, it is completely empty here. If there is anything left, there is only a giant platform leaning to the inside.

According to the regulations of the stronghold, this most spacious location must be used to house huge and heavy spiritual weapons.

What to do next... Lin Fei, who was confused, didn't expect to make any new discoveries in a place like this, so he looked at the three researchers from the Psychic Research Institute from the moment he came in, looking forward to what they would do next.

action.

However, he soon discovered that some investigators began to adjust their positions intentionally or unintentionally, squeezing Wang Zhui and Lu Qian, including him, out of the vicinity of the platform.

At the same time, the three researchers were gathered in front of the stone platform, as if they were taking something out of their backpacks.

Lin Fei's field of vision was mostly blocked by several investigators, but he could still vaguely see Wu Hua putting a headdress on Miss Zhao's head.

"This is the information recorded when the investigation team arrived at the base last time. You were in a bad mental state before, so I didn't take it out. Now..."

Qi Zhimin took out a document from his briefcase and placed it in front of Miss Zhao. He noticed that her face was still very pale, but she could not speak the second half of the sentence.

The previous state was poor, could it be any better now?

"I understand, this is my mission, you don't have to feel guilty." Opening the title page of the document, Miss Zhao looked at the two people on the left and right, smiled with all her strength, looked down at the page with the image, paused, and half-squinted.

He closed his eyes as if thinking about something.

"That's it. It's what was stored among the items brought back by the last investigation team that landed on the island!"

At the end of last year, the investigation team dispatched to this island that had been alienated by psychic powers was specially equipped with a person who had reached a certain level of sketching and copying.

In such an environment where precision equipment is prone to problems, it is a normal choice to leave some important clues in this way.

The page in Miss Zhao's hand depicts a huge creature lying in a hunting posture in the swamp.

Its appearance looks like a hairless wealth wolf, with jagged animal bones protruding all over its body, and its mouth is full of sharp fangs.

"The dean told us before we left that the incident started with us, and we must resolve this hidden danger this time."

Wu Hua moved half a step forward, suppressing his voice. The sound of rain falling next to him and the constant roar of beasts outside the stronghold completely covered up his voice.

"Things are not that simple. According to the information I checked before coming here, that guy is far more powerful than we know... In my opinion, we should not try to solve it here, we can think of other solutions

method."

Qi Zhimin added, frowning, and his words were not optimistic.

"No, I don't think so. You must understand that it is very weak now. If it continues, it will be even worse for us."

Before coming here, there was a debate within the Psychic Research Institute about this action. In the end, no one could convince anyone, so Wu Hua and Qi Zhimin came together.

The original plan was to decide according to the situation after arriving at the base, but as far as the current situation is concerned, the two people still have no unified opinions.

She took out two fist-sized, somewhat distinctive spiritual stones from her backpack, holding one in each hand. Somehow, Miss Zhao, who had seemed weak and calm all the way, regained some energy, and she opened her mouth to interrupt the two.

People's arguments.

"We have reached this point and can no longer retreat. Now I am going to start. Please be quiet."

Lin Fei's previous guess was undoubtedly accurate. This girl was brought here and indeed had an irreplaceable role.

As soon as Miss Zhao spoke, Wu Hua and Qi Zhimin immediately stepped aside to leave space for her. After noticing this, everyone in the Superpower Management Bureau quickly distanced themselves. Wang Zhui and Lu Qian, including Lin Fei, only

I can follow and evacuate further.

Foreign aid is just foreign aid after all. Even in this battle, Lin Fei's performance has been recognized by everyone, but he is still an outsider in the eyes of the latter.

What happens next is obviously a Malay secret.

Even if Lin Fei, a powerful foreign aid, did help a lot along the way, Jin Zhenghao and the others had no intention of letting him watch.

One moment he put on the headgear, and the next he took out two special spiritual stones. Looking at this state, it goes without saying that he was planning to conduct some kind of experiment.

Although Lin Fei didn't know what the purpose of these researchers was, it didn't stop him from thinking that this behavior was causing trouble, but Lin Fei didn't think about stopping it.

In fact, he also wanted to know what was so special about this woman, who was called Miss Zhao by the Malay people and whose real name was Zhao Yunli, that she could be so valued by the Superpower Management Bureau and the Psychic Research Institute.

But in the current situation, forcefully approaching will only cause trouble. As an outsider, it is better to retreat to the vicinity of the main entrance of the stronghold.

Lin Fei found a rain-proof position and leaned against the wall. His gaze shifted from the rolling swamp water outside the stronghold to the surrounding sea of ​​flowers, and then to the vine marsh in the distance that had gradually become quiet.

The hunt for fluorescent tentacles seems to have come to an end for the time being.

Why did it stop suddenly?

The fragrance of flowers in the air became more and more fragrant. Lin Fei looked at the corpses of various strange beasts floating in the vine swamp. Suddenly he seemed to notice something and raised his head to look at the sky.

The clouds settled again, showing an oppressive gray-white color. The surrounding temperature reversed, and the hot wind turned into cold wind, like a biting knife coming towards you.

"Scorching summer has turned into cold winter?!" Wang Zhui, who was standing aside, noticed the change in the weather, spoke in a low tone, and finally sighed.

I don't know if it was because of the encounters along the way or the crisis in Fujinuma just now. I slumped my shoulders and tightened my combat uniform tighter.

The heavy snow fell without any delay. For a while, the hazy drizzle on the vine marsh was suddenly replaced by the manic wind and snow. In just a few minutes, the entire vine marsh became a vast expanse of white.

Among them, the corpses of those strange beasts are the most conspicuous, always standing much higher in the vine marsh.

"Wait... what is that?" Lin Fei stood up suddenly and saw a large number of gray-brown things emerging from the snow covering the corpses.

Looking through the telescope, I discovered that they were parasitic vines growing on the bodies of alien animals!

Why do they appear here? You need to tell the people inside this news.

The sudden discovery made Lin Fei, who was still looking at the scenery, immediately turn around and walk into the stronghold. However, before he had taken a few steps, a huge psychic impact suddenly came from inside the stronghold, which made Lin Fei frown.

frowned.

What are the people at the Psychic Research Institute doing there? The intensity of this psionic impact is not small!

"There's something wrong with the flowers outside the stronghold. They're all holding their breath!" Suddenly there was an exclamation from inside. The problem was that they had been here for nearly ten minutes since entering the stronghold.

Not to mention smelling the fragrance of flowers, my whole body has been completely saturated with that scent.

Lin Fei was surprised. He saw that the people from the Superpower Management Bureau and the Psychic Research Institute had no reaction at all when they saw the sea of ​​flowers. He thought this was something that had existed for a long time. After all, they were far more familiar with this place.

to him.

How could it be too late to speak out at this time?

His feet suddenly staggered, his physical and spiritual energy surged, and all the negative effects disappeared. Then Lin Fei felt that his eyes were in a trance, and the scene in front of him suddenly changed.

Several light golden ripples are spreading out from inside the stronghold. Wherever they pass, the dilapidated stronghold has disappeared and been replaced by a fully restored building.

Lin Fei turned back to look at Wang Zhui and Lu Qian behind him. They seemed to be pressed to pause, their movements were frozen in place, their faces were full of confusion, and after a few seconds, their bodies seemed to have had their bones taken away.

He fell limply to the ground and completely passed out.

Without intending to rush over to check on their situation, Lin Fei walked straight into the stronghold. Along the way, he saw everyone from the Superpower Management Bureau and the two people from the Psychic Research Institute, all of whom were collapsed on the ground. Their conditions were unknown.

The only person who was still awake at the scene was the woman named Zhao Yunli.

At this moment, she was looking up at a statue floating in mid-air in front of her, with a height of 20 centimeters and carved from an unknown spiritual material.

"Miss Zhao, what happened?" This situation is undoubtedly beyond the scope of work of Lin Fei, a foreign aid. After all, even their own people are not immune.

Lin Fei felt that he needed to ask, so he took the initiative to ask.

No response.

After getting closer, Lin Fei realized that Miss Zhao was in perhaps even worse condition than the unconscious people around her. Her eyes were filled with pale golden light, as if she had fallen into some special state.

Lin Fei clearly remembered that she was the one who reminded Hua Xiang that there was a problem just now. No one else from the Superpower Management Bureau or the Psychic Research Institute noticed it. Why was it her?

His eyes swept over the scattered people lying on the ground, and then turned to Miss Zhao's shimmering headdress. The answer was obvious, it was all because of the ongoing experiment.

From this point of view, the fragrance of flowers is not the key, otherwise they would have already had a problem just now. What really caused the current change is that the woman in front of her was activated or triggered by some special situation through a spiritual weapon, which caused it to already exist in everyone's body.

The floral fragrance is stimulated.

The most powerful evidence was the spiritual energy that was still being depleted in the body. Lin Fei was certain that the fragrance of flowers should be able to induce hallucinations, and the ripples that just spread were the real culprit that caused everyone to become comatose.

It's a pity that this kind of influence only affects practitioners below the third-level peak, and it doesn't matter to Lin Fei, so that he can stand here safe and sound.

It is impossible to directly take the Malay people away from the island, which means that this assistance mission is a complete failure.

After all, I am here to provide assistance on behalf of the government. If it fails like this, it will be too shameful... I have to find a way to break the situation.

Lin Fei's eyes fell on Zhao Yunli, who was in a daze. He felt that the life breath on her body was gradually weakening, and he estimated that this woman might die in less than two or three minutes.

You can't die in front of me like this now. If this spreads out, it will have a very bad impact, and it will make me seem incompetent as a foreign aid... Lin Fei muttered in his heart.
