Chapter 969 Ancient Ruins
Seeing that Wu Zhongyuan had read the captive's confession, Director Gao handed over another stack of photos, "This is a panoramic photo of those three suspicious places. It was taken by satellites and has a very high definition."
Wu Zhongyuan took the stack of photos but was not in a hurry to check it out. Instead, he asked, "What should you do with that captive?"
"It was still in the cave that was originally an abandoned ordnance warehouse. We repurposed it and converted it into a research institute," Director Gao said, pausing at this point, and asked, "If you think it is necessary, we can go over and interrogate it again."
Wu Zhongyuan waved his hand, "That's not necessary, but I don't know if you have any questions. Since monsters and devils can be connected by telepathy, the devil should be able to determine where it is. After so long, why haven't I tried to rescue it?"
Director Gao said, "We thought of this problem, and we discovered that iron tools can block the transmission of spiritual energy and brain waves very early, so shortly after it was captured, we built a prison for pure iron. In fact, it was also stubborn at the beginning. It was precisely because it found that it could not contact its owner and its psychological defense gradually collapsed."
Almost all public units use white porcelain cups to make tea, and the 18th branch was no exception. Wu Zhongyuan picked up the teacup and drank it, then put it down and said, "It will definitely take a certain amount of time from the time it was captured and the iron prison was built. Its owner should have known that it was captured, and its owner also knew very well that it might know these three places."
"It makes sense," Director Gao nodded, "according to common sense, the enemy should have moved from these three suspicious locations after it was captured, but satellite surveillance shows that they did not leave those areas."
"What do you think about their approach?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.
Director Gao did not rush to speak, but stood up and took a kettle to pour water for Wu Zhongyuan. Wu Zhongyuan came to his senses and stood up with a teacup. When the teacup was filled, he thanked Director Gao and then sat back.
Director Gao put back into the kettle and said, "We think there are three relatively large possibilities for them not to transfer. First, these three suspicious places are their secret bases. They have been operating for many years, and they cannot be moved. The second possibility is that these places are extremely tightly defended and they are fearless. The last possibility is that they want to use their plans, wait for their work, and stay in the trap... Please get into the trap."
Wu Zhongyuan nodded with a smile. Director Gao said exactly what he was thinking. The experience of the last cruise ship was in danger shows that the enemy knew him or people like him very well, and knew what could restrain him. The pure iron sealed environment and infrasound waves could limit his spell display.
Director Gao also said, "It was our responsibility to deal with similar things, and we shouldn't let you take risks. Considering that the enemy may be prepared, I insisted that you bring some comrades with you. If everything goes well, they may be burdened to you. However, once they encounter danger, even if they do not have the ability to rescue you, they can disrupt the enemy and win you an opportunity."
Wu Zhongyuan nodded and said nothing. He took the stack of photos aside and looked at them carefully one by one. The first few photos were taken on an island, and the photos were taken down from a high place. Director Gao also said that these photos were taken by satellites. Satellites are not drones. They can hover at low altitudes, and satellites are all at high altitudes. The clarity of these photos can only be described as horror. Some detailed photos can even see human faces clearly.
"What satellite can be photographed so clearly?" Wu Zhongyuan sighed casually.
"Low-altitude military satellites," Director Gao said proudly, "In recent years, our country's aerospace technology has developed rapidly. The total number of satellites has reached 192. Satellites such as military use are low-altitude satellites, about 100 kilometers from the ground, resource detection satellites are 300 kilometers from the ground, and meteorological satellites are a little higher, generally 800 kilometers from the ground. The highest is the high-orbit satellite of the Beidou system, which is more than 21,000 kilometers from the ground, which is more than 1,000 kilometers higher than the GPS satellites of the foreign devils."
Although modern times is not the birthplace of Wu Zhongyuan, it is the place where he grew up. He has a deep affection for this second hometown, and the people here are very friendly to him. Therefore, the strength of the motherland makes him very pleased. In fact, whether a person likes a certain place depends largely on whether the people in that place are friendly to him. Even if the people around him always attack and exclude him, he will not be attached to his hometown. Even if they are in a foreign land, if the people around him are enthusiastic and friendly to him, he will be attached to him and even take root.
Everything we like is actually not the place, but the people there, maybe a group of people or just one person.
Wu Zhongyuan would look at every photo carefully. This is a secret base built on the island. The island is not big. There is an old castle built on the top of a mountain on the island, and the castle is not big.
Director Gao has seen these photos. When Wu Zhongyuan looked at them, he would also explain them, including the large area of water and thunders around the island, the high-power radar on the island, and the castle on the top of the mountain is just the entrance, and there is still a large secret space in the mountain below.
The second suspicious location is located in an endless desert uninhabited area. There are lifting aprons and as many as dozens of castles. The satellite used special imaging technology to detect huge space hidden under the desert. What is strange is that the underground space is in the shape of a reverse pyramid.
The last suspicious place is a primitive jungle that is rarely visited. Due to the dense coverage of vegetation, the photos taken are not very complete. However, you can vaguely see a large ancient building in the depths of the dense forest. On the surface, it has been abandoned for many years, but thermal imaging technology detects that there are a large number of hidden whistles hidden around it and a large number of heat sources underground.
After looking at the photos one by one, Wu Zhongyuan picked up the teacup and pondered. These three suspicious locations have several common points: one is that it is easy to defend but difficult to attack, two is to stay away from the crowd, and three is that these places seem to be related to ancient ruins.
"Director Gao, can you find out where these three suspicious places were in ancient times?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.
Director Gao said, "These suspicious locations are not in our country, so it is difficult to trace the root cause, but we have sent someone to investigate. I will urge them to provide feedback as soon as possible."
"Okay." Wu Zhongyuan lowered his head and drank water.
Director Gao left the sofa and returned to his desk and turned on the computer. "You know the general situation, and I will immediately put out the list. There are their general situations. You can select a few accompanying assistants based on the actual situation, first look at the information, and then look at the person."
"This is all confidential. It's better if I don't read it. You can arrange a few for me at your discretion. It's not expensive, so don't exceed three." Wu Zhongyuan said.
"It's okay, you're not an outsider." Director Gao said.
Wu Zhongyuan didn't know how to get in touch with the secret and said again, "Let's do this, Fang Yi, send me two more combat power to me."
Director Gao did not answer the call, and the printer started working and soon printed a list.
Director Gao handed the list to Wu Zhongyuan, "This is a brief information, age, military rank, special abilities and other related information."
Wu Zhongyuan did not refuse anymore. He took the list and read it line by line. The 18th Branch will grade and evaluate staff with special abilities or magical powers. The lower the score of the three departments under his jurisdiction, the higher the score.
"There are monks in the 18th Branch?" Wu Zhongyuan said casually.
"Yes," Director Gao pointed his finger, "not only monks, but also Taoist priests, these are Taoist priests."
Wu Zhongyuan had a good impression of Taoist priests, so he pointed to the two people at the bottom of the list and said, "Send me these two Taoist priests in the third subject."
"These two are probably not good." Director Gao shook his head in a dilemma.
"Hmm?" Wu Zhongyuan tilted his head in confusion.
Director Gao said, "They are retired."
"Isn't this only in his thirties? Why did he retire so early? He was injured in an industry?" Wu Zhongyuan asked casually.
"No," Director Gao shook his head again, "Their identities are quite special and they no longer perform tasks. It is just because they have made great contributions to the country that they have always retained their military posts."
"Oh," Wu Zhongyuan returned the list to Chief Gao, "Then you can arrange whatever you want, you can send anyone."
