Time came to the afternoon. After the mobilization of the perfect accommodater named Brett Valdez in the morning, everyone's emotions were aroused. Then the more than 200 people below were divided into groups. Each A on the stage
Level accommodaters each lead a team.
As expected, Guan Siyu and He Wu were assigned to a group. The more than 20 people in the same group were all from Dongguo. The leader was the black-haired middle-aged man who was walking alongside Brett Valdez.
At this time, everyone was on a large armed helicopter. Except for their captain, no one knew where the destination of the trip was.
Guan Siyu glanced at the direction of the cockpit and whispered: "Unmanned driving? Is it safe?"
He Wu next to him couldn't help but darken his face when he heard Guan Siyu muttering to himself: "It's been flying for so long, and you're still thinking about safety?!"
"Then...then I just noticed it," Guan Siyu defended in a low voice.
There was a chuckle from the side. It was obvious that they heard Guan Siyu's words and found them a bit funny. Although the more peripheral team members did not understand what was going on here, they were relieved by the sudden laughter.
He Wu was suddenly stunned when he noticed this scene. He remembered that when he was in Linhai City, every time he went out to perform a mission, Captain Song Yi would always use some joking words to ease the tense atmosphere before the mission began.
At the beginning, he would still complain in his heart, thinking that Captain Song Yi was usually a serious person, but he would occasionally be out of tune. It was not until many times that he suddenly understood the captain's good intentions.
But now, Guan Siyu's behavior seems to be exactly the same as that of Captain Song Yi at that time. He Wu looked at the girl who was having a silly laugh and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Unknowingly, the little girl who was so stupid in the eyes of everyone
He has grown too!
Guan Siyu: Hey, I always feel like someone is talking about me in their heart!
The chuckles from the crowd seemed to wake up the captain who was deep in thought. He turned around and thought for a moment. He first tapped the floating board at hand to attract the attention of the team members, and then said: "Perhaps some of you have heard of it.
My name, but let me introduce myself, my name is Xu Chengfei, I come from the Xu family of the Eastern Kingdom, but it doesn’t matter, you just need to know that I am your captain and your comrade."
Looking around, he saw that everyone was listening to him attentively. He nodded secretly and continued: "This mission is extraordinary and extremely dangerous. As the brat who only knows how to talk has said, each of us can
Might die!"
A guy who only knows how to talk?!
The image of Brett Valdez during his speech in the morning flashed in everyone's mind, could they be talking about him?!
"But I hope that each of you can understand that we are doing this narrow escape mission this time, not because of orders from above, but because this mission will be of real help to our world that is about to face the end of the world. Specifically, I
We can’t say yet, but if everyone can survive, I believe it won’t take long for them to understand.”
Looking down at the watch on his wrist, Xu Chengfei continued: "We will arrive at our destination soon. We will wait until the mission is over there."
After saying that, he fell into deep thought again.
This time, the team members were no longer as depressed as they were at the beginning, but instead started discussing in low voices.
After more than ten minutes, the armed helicopter began to slow down and descend, and seemed to be approaching its destination.
This is a desolate area, and you can see the primitive landforms exposed due to a long period of no human activity. But strangely, you can see the ruins of a dilapidated city in the distance, which seems to have been prosperous a long time ago.
Guan Siyu and He Wu didn't know where this was, so they seemed a little confused, but many people's faces became a little ugly. Based on what Xu Chengfei said on the way, they vaguely guessed a terrifying possibility.
"Team...Captain, here...could this be..."
Xu Chengfei looked at everyone and suddenly shouted: "Gather!"
The team members subconsciously completed an efficient assembly instruction.
Xu Chengfei nodded and said calmly: "It seems that many people have guessed where this is! Yes, this is the Lost City, the City of Horror, and the City of Weirdness! The first S discovered in our human history
It’s so weird that it’s so terrifying that it swallowed up a city of hundreds of thousands the first time it appeared!”
"Our mission is to explore this weirdness!"
"But Captain, it is said that no one who enters the Lost City can return, and communications will be interfered with inside. What's the point of doing this?!" someone asked in a trembling voice.
This is also the doubt in everyone's mind. If they are destined to never return, and even the information cannot be passed on, then why did they go in?
Xu Chengfei explained: "Don't worry, if it's a fatal and meaningless mission, we won't agree to it without you having to tell us!"
When Xu Chengfei talks about us, he is naturally referring to them, A-level perfect accomodators.
These words put the teammates at ease.
"Actually, it is not right to say that no one who enters can survive. Many of the personnel sent to explore in the past have survived, including many ordinary soldiers! As long as they do not touch a few taboos."
Xu Chengfei's words made all his teammates immediately listen attentively.
"First and most importantly, you may encounter many people after entering it. No matter what they look like or what they say, don't pay attention to them, let alone attack them. Just turn around and leave."
"Because the Lost City will spy on your memories and thoughts, and simulate phantoms to confuse you. Once you get in touch with the other party's phantom, you will be 'discovered' by it, and there will be more waiting for you.
means. Otherwise, it will not be able to 'discover' you."
Although Xu Chengfei's words were a bit convoluted, the team members still understood what he meant. This was nothing more than a special rule.
"Secondly, you may encounter fog in the Lost City. You must look carefully and do not enter or step into it, otherwise you will definitely get lost in it."
Everyone looked at the ruins of the dilapidated city in the distance, especially the mist of various colors rising from it, and felt awe-struck.
"Last but not least, everyone's exploration time in it must not exceed six hours, so we limit it to three hours. After entering the Lost City for three hours, no matter where you explore, you must return as quickly as possible.
, remember, you must follow the original route, your combat bracelet will record your movement trajectory, if you encounter an obstacle like a wall on the way back, do not take a detour even if you climb the wall."
The final meaning is very obvious, the terrain in the Lost City will continue to change.
"After we enter the Lost City, there is a high probability that we will be scattered. Even if there are companions around us, don't say anything. Just spread out and explore. Remember what I told you. Just follow it. Even if everyone survives, I will not
I’m surprised!”
The team members were shocked and felt that as long as they found the pattern, even the legendary S-shaped weirdness would not be so difficult to deal with!
Seeing this scene, Xu Chengfei nodded secretly. Many times, an optimistic and positive attitude is also a weapon against the weird. The more fearful and anxious a person is, the easier it is to become a target of the weird.
"So Captain, what is the purpose of our exploration? You haven't told us yet, so you can't just let us go in and wander around." A team member suddenly asked, and finally he opened a
A joke that made everyone burst into laughter.
However, Xu Chengfei did not laugh, but looked at the person who asked the question strangely.
Seeing the captain's gaze, everyone gradually stopped laughing.
Xu Chengfei grinned and said: "Your guess is correct. There is indeed no target and we can explore at will. The special combat uniforms we wear have all-round monitoring and storage equipment. As long as we survivors come back, we will submit the data to the headquarters. The headquarters
The think tank will naturally analyze the useful information, so we only need to think about how to protect ourselves during these six hours and try to come back alive!"
The team members nodded. It was a good thing for them that there was no goal, so that they could feel more relaxed.
Xu Chengfei looked at the time again, and then said: "Then, the time is up. The reminder of the combat bracelet has been set in advance. It will vibrate silently in three hours. Be sure to remember what I said. Now, let's go!"
"yes!"
When Xu Chengfei's team headed towards the Lost City, there were also two teams from the other two directions heading towards the Lost City with the same purpose.
At the same time, two to three teams went to investigate the ten S-shaped weirdnesses discovered by humans. They were either excited, apprehensive, indifferent, or afraid, but they did not flinch!
…………
"Hey!~"
In the headquarters, Rasul kept sighing. He couldn't understand why the three adults in front of him made such a stupid decision. In his opinion, investing so much combat power into exploring ten cities at once
The S-type weirdness is completely unnecessary. For them who have already mastered the power to compete with it, shouldn't they choose to play it steady and step by step?!
What's more, the nearly thirty teams that went there this time included almost more than 70% of the high-end power of the strange asylum. How could he, as the top person in charge, not feel distressed!
York glanced at Chris, saw the other person nodded slightly, and said to Rasul: "You seem to be very opposed to the adults' decision?"
Upon hearing this, Rasul quickly shook his head and denied: "No, no, I completely support the adults' decision!"
York chuckled and glanced at him, and the latter said awkwardly: "It's just... I just have a little doubt."
York said: "Now that we are facing the end of the world, every bit of power is precious. How can adults waste it at will? There is really a reason to do so."
Rasool said he was all ears.
"All of this is to guard against possible masterminds!" York said solemnly.
"What, does the mastermind really exist?!" Rasul exclaimed.
As early as the birth of the strange, after knowledgeable people realized their harm, they have never stopped speculating on why these inexplicable beings appear.
Generally speaking, there are two conclusions that are widely recognized.
One is natural phenomena, whether it is a certain problem in the world itself or some special phenomenon in the universe, in short, there are no human factors.
The second is that there is a mastermind behind the scenes, perhaps the awakening of the ancient evil god sleeping deep in the world, or the arrival of some extraterrestrial visitors. These strange things are created by a certain existence and are controlled by it.
Among these two theories, the first one has always been at the top. The reason is that the strange power has surpassed the entire world a long time ago, but they have not taken any further actions. This seems to verify from the side that there is no mastermind behind this.
possibility.
And Rasul is a staunch natural phenomenonist, otherwise he would not have thought of creating a controllable S-type weirdness. Now that he suddenly heard the news that there might be a mastermind behind the scenes, he was naturally a little surprised.
York said: "Yes, the mastermind behind the scenes is very likely to exist."
Rasul asked in surprise: "Why do you say that?"
York stared at Rasul and said word by word: "Because we found that all S-type weirdness is connected!"
Is there a connection?! All S-shaped weirdos are connected?! How can they be connected? If they are connected, then...
When Rasul slowly came to his senses, York continued: "That's why we formulated this exploration plan, just to prevent them from connecting with each other, collect all the information at once, and lay the foundation for the subsequent counterattack plan.
Base!"
Rasul said solemnly: "However, this alone cannot prove the existence of the mastermind behind the scenes?! This cannot explain why he has not taken action yet!"
York shook his head and said: "You mean that the strange power has already surpassed us, but it still does nothing. We also have speculations."
York called up a report and transmitted it to Rasul. The latter looked at it for a moment and asked in confusion: "This is a report on natural disasters over the years. What can this mean?"
York explained: "Although many natural disasters are unpredictable, they are generally maintained at a relatively stable level. However, since the advent of Weird, the frequency of natural disasters in our world has increased year by year, especially Weird.
In the year of the riots, it suddenly increased several times!"
"Perhaps the mastermind behind the scenes has already taken action, but it's just at a level we can't see!"
Rasul's eyes shrank sharply, and he was so shocked by the news that he was completely speechless.
In Chris' mind, Lando, who heard the conversation outside, also nodded slightly, agreeing with their judgment.
But he was not optimistic about the so-called plan of Chris and the others. After all, to the Mother of Evil Spirits, the world was just a toy in its eyes, and there was no possibility of fighting against it.
A smile appeared on Lando's lips. Chris and the others were able to formulate these plans, which were somewhat influenced by him, and through this, he also completed his plan!
