The Great Rift Valley of East Africa, on the edge of Lake Tanganyika!
Plop!
"Professor, the survey instrument has entered Lake Tanganyika, please give instructions!"
The researchers sitting in front of the survey display screen carefully manipulated the submersible survey device placed in the lake. The survey device was equipped with a video head, and the things in the lake were clearly visible and returned to the display screen.
A burly middle-aged man called "Professor" walked up to the researchers with a cup of steaming milk in hand and looked at the video returned by the lake surveyor.
"How many meters did the surveyor dive to?" the middle-aged man calmly asked after taking a sip of milk.
"We are still four hundred meters away from the bottom of the lake. Professor, why did the water level here suddenly drop by one centimeter?"
The researchers looked puzzled. The water level in a natural pool that holds water all year round has rarely dropped by one centimeter. Looking at Lake Tanganyika, which is known as the "second deepest lake in the world", this kind of thing should never happen, but they encountered
Up.
There are dozens of naturally formed lakes here, and it rains all year round. It has a tropical rain forest climate. It is impossible to talk about water shortage and drought. They don't understand. They originally wanted to investigate the geological problems here, but they unexpectedly encountered such a situation.
.
"Who knows? But it's definitely not that simple. You can't tell what happened to the lake from above. You can only look for problems from within."
The middle-aged man's brown eyes narrowed slightly and he murmured: "Is it your fault?"
"We have reached the bottom of the lake, professor, what should we do next?"
The researchers are waiting for the most authoritative geology professors. They are all his students, and their professors have been to many places, collected various geological conditions and samples, and patiently taught them how to analyze geological problems in a targeted manner. But the situation here
It's really weird. Since their teacher is here, it's not their turn to intervene. After all, this is their first time encountering this problem.
"Start a carpet scan and make sure not to miss any place, especially the ground conditions at the bottom of the lake."
The middle-aged man gave the order briefly, and he was also puzzled, guessing that something must have happened at the bottom of the lake.
"Tianji, isn't it..."
A young and beautiful girl opened the tent, wearing the same white research robe. If you didn't look carefully, you would think she was a star girl. If you look carefully, even the stars beside her pale in comparison.
"It's not clear yet. We are investigating. If it is really their fault, we can only handle it." The middle-aged man put his arm around the girl's waist and looked at the center of the lake with a serious expression.
"Teacher, don't worry too much. To solve this sudden drop in water level, there must be a geological problem. Our professor will definitely have a way to solve it."
A researcher lightened the atmosphere with a cheerful attitude. There were a total of five students from the institute, all of whom were students.
"Haha, if your professor can't even settle such a trivial matter, then I won't even look down on him!" The girl rubbed her waist domineeringly with her hands and teased with her rosy mouth.
"In front of the students, please give me some face!" The middle-aged man scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Ha ha ha ha....."
All the researchers present laughed heartily. Their teacher's wife was the only woman who could suppress the professor. Moreover, the teacher's wife was as beautiful as a fairy. They were very lucky to be the professor's students and to be able to work with such a gentle and virtuous teacher and a professor who knew everything.
They are lucky enough to work together and have no regrets.
“Didi di di di!”
"Professor, discover the situation!"
Just as they were joking, the diving surveyor sent an early warning.
The middle-aged man and the girl walked quickly to the display screen. The image returned by the surveyor showed that there was a deep scar on the seabed, and the scar ravine was filled with fish bones, and bubbles would rise from the ravine.
"Professor, this is..."
The researchers were shocked. There were gully scars hundreds of meters long, and there were piles of fish bones. Did something eat them? Where did the gully come from? It didn't look like it was naturally formed, and there was no earthquake cracking at the bottom of the lake.
The thing that happened seemed to be torn apart by some kind of force.
The middle-aged man stared at the image, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and then said: "This is a small matter, it may be due to some ground cracking. As for the death of fish, I will study it carefully."
"Tianji, we..."
"I know!"
The middle-aged man leaned close to the girl's ear and whispered a few words.
"I see."
........
Martial Arts Training Ground!
Drink drink....
"Ming Lu, give it!"
Modi picked up a bottle of Nongfu Spring and threw it away. He had just finished training and was so tired that he was sweating. After every training, he drank a bottle of Nongfu Spring to quench his thirst.
"Thank you!" Ye Minglu opened his hand to take it, opened it and took a big sip, saying "so good"!
"By the way, Ming Lu, it seems that next weekend is your birthday!"
"Huh? What's wrong?"
Hearing Modi suddenly talk about his birthday, Ye Minglu felt strange. He was usually not so kind to remember other people's birthdays, but he actually asked him his birthday for the first time.
"It's nothing! I'm just asking casually if you want to have a party." Modi smiled playfully and spread his hands.
Ye Minglu was dubious and drank another sip of Nongfu Spring to calm down his shock! If it was his birthday, forget about having a party, just have it go by normally, and at most give some Christmas gifts to Emily and the others.
"By the way, Wuyue's birthday seems to be on the same day as yours! It happens to be Christmas!"
"puff--"
"Ahem, what did you say? Wuyue's birthday is the same as mine? Or is it Christmas?"
Ye Minglu almost choked at Modi's words. It would be a big deal if it was Wuyue's birthday. After all, it was a girl's birthday, and it was the first time that he felt the need to give gifts or something like that.
Modi smiled slyly and said: "Yes, that's why I asked you if you want to have a party? Then the six of us will have a beer together!"
"Can you finish what you're saying at once? Let me think about it, what about the party, gifts..." Ye Minglu suddenly fell into hard thinking, what gift should I give Wuyue for her birthday? Money is not a problem, but this money
It's not what he earned, so he has to make money separately.
"Aren't you going to do it?" Modi looked at Ye Minglu in confusion and said nothing.
"No, if it's Wuyue's birthday, then let's do it. However, her gifts also include Emily and Yuexin's birthday gifts. I want to make money to give them to them personally. I wonder if you have any work places that you can recommend.
." Ye Minglu carefully considered the importance. His own can be ordinary, but Wu Yue's, and the gifts from Emily, Jie Xin and others are indispensable.
"Yes, it's not easy to find. With your ability, there are many places where you can work, but are you sure you want this?"
Although Modi is a son of a wealthy family, he does not have that arrogant and arrogant attitude. Instead, he easily blends into the crowd. As for service industries such as temporary work, Modi not only knows about it, but has also played in those places and worked with some
The store owner is very experienced.
Ye Minglu thought about it for a moment and felt that he really hadn't given them any gifts. Like Emily and Yue Xin, it had been almost a year, and Wu Yue had been even more for a year. He should use his own ability to give them.
A real gift for them is the kind that comes from something that is not easy. This is what is valuable.
"It's decided, find me a job! Use your evening time to work, but then I'll have to ask Modi to pick you up and drop me off. I'm not afraid of meeting a demon hunter, but I'm afraid that Emily will make irresponsible remarks."
After carefully looking at the allocation, I found that I could only be free at night during the daytime classes, and I might encounter a wandering demon hunter at night. On the premise of making Emily not doubt and ensuring her own safety, Ye Minglu had no choice but to ask Modi.
"No problem. It's a night job, so let's be a bartender! If you work for a week, you can get a lot of money." Modi said with a smile.
Ye Minglu looked at his playful and smiling expression and guessed: "You must not be planning any evil ideas, right?"
"No, no, as an upright person like me, how could I be so scheming!"
Modi waved his hands repeatedly, and also made a handsome pose, his teeth were white and shiny.
"It's up to you, just find me a job."
"OK, keep it with me, I'm worthy of your trust!"
"Let's continue practicing. As members of the martial arts club, we will compete again!"
After putting down the drink from Nongfu Spring, Ye Minglu stood up, picked up the rattan sword lying on the floor, and pointed the blade straight at Modi.
Modi threw away the water bottle he had finished drinking in his hand, and dropped it into the trash can without any error. He smiled confidently and said: "Then I'm not polite. Both of us have won and lost, although I have lost more.
But I will win this time!"
“Then come and try it!”
The peak showdown between the two began again. The club members happily enjoyed the battle between the strong. They also tried to compete with the two masters of the martial arts club, but unfortunately they fell down within a few rounds. The spirit of the martial arts club never gave up.
This loss will not faze them, it will only further arouse their fighting spirit.
Lake Tanganyika.
The wind howled late at night, and the sound of sleeping sounds came from several camps. There were early warning devices within a hundred meters of the tents. No matter it was a wild beast or something else, as long as the early warning device was touched by a certain weight, it would sound.
When camping in the wild, researchers also take precautions.
At this time, a separate tent was opened, and a middle-aged man and a girl walked out quietly and walked towards Lake Tanganyika.
Deep in the endless lake at night, the middle-aged man suddenly said: "The gullies seen at the bottom of the lake during the day should be changes caused by the Demon Hunter King of the Sea, and the death of fish is due to the absorption of life. The ravines are what the Demon Hunter King uses to absorb power."
Created.”
"The ruler of the deep sea, who has been sealed for thousands of years, once injected dark magic into this place. Now the ravines have spread, proving that he already wants to break the seal and use this place to absorb more power." The girl's red eyes shone unusually at night, and her beautiful eyes
There is a cold light shining through at this moment.
"It seems that we elf envoys have to fight against the Demon Hunter King again. By the way, who destroyed Angbil, the ruler of the earth? I remember Tianyang and Reis are the strongest elf envoys guarding Mount Fuji. Is it them?"
The girl shook her head and sighed: "Although I don't know very well, I heard that it was a human contractor with two elves who finally killed Angbil. Today's elf envoys are really talented."
"Opportunities are reserved for the younger generations. We, the older generation of elves, can only assist them. Our strong combat power can no longer reach its peak." The middle-aged man looked at the night sky meaningfully. The stars that shine the brightest are the new stars.
"Okay, let's not sigh. The first thing we need to do is to suppress the power of the Demon Hunter King of Earth. It is estimated that there will not be enough power to deal with the return of the Deep Sea Ruler for a while!" The middle-aged man relaxed.
Bones, eyes sharpened.
"Then tomorrow we have to make up a story about the disappearance of the gully for the students." The girl pursed her lips and smiled. The gully was destined to be annihilated in their hands tonight.
"bring it on!"
With a thought from the middle-aged man, the girl emitted a strong red and blue halo, and a cold breath shot up into the sky. The girl turned into two red lights and blue arrows hovering in the air.
A mixed blue and red contract was engraved on the back of the middle-aged man's left hand. Immediately, two rays of light fell on the middle-aged man. The vast magic pressure spread directly, and even the lake around him was shaken to the point of ripples.
After the light flashed, the middle-aged man was already dressed in blue clothes, with red magic flowing around him. A red and blue mixed gemstone wristband on his left arm exuded unprecedented magic fluctuations, and he held two long swords in his hands.
The long sword is even more unique. One is a sharp fire sword that seems to be burning, and the other is a water sword that exudes soft currents. It is the opposite of water and fire. The five inches of the sword hilt are inlaid with a red and a sapphire. The magic energy will
It becomes stronger with the number of times the gem flashes.
The middle-aged man's figure flashed and disappeared by the lake.
The depth of the lake was more than 1,400 meters. In just a few seconds, the middle-aged man appeared at the bottom of the lake 100 meters away. A looming blue protective shield on his body blocked all water intrusion.
"This ravine is really big. It seems I need to work harder!" The middle-aged man stared at the long ravine. The ruby on the fire sword flashed a few times. The sword body burned with blazing flames, and the flames extended into a hundred-meter-long sword.
drink!
With a loud shout, the fire sword fell into the ravine. The fish bones turned into ashes in the blink of an eye, leaving only the empty cracked ravine. This sword not only caused the bones to dissipate, but also the aura and dark magic power of the Demon Hunter King remaining in the ravine.
Clear it out.
The gemstone of the water sword in the middle-aged man's right hand flashed a few times at night, triggering a wave of water, which condensed into a deep-sea dragon and crashed fiercely into the ravine.
Boom!
Under the pressure of the water at the bottom of the lake and the impact of the dragon, the gully gradually disappeared and no more bubbles emerged. Only then did the middle-aged man restrain the magic on the water sword.
"It's finished! The sword is still young, and I haven't worn magic clothes in a year."
"We usually teach students that it is difficult to become an elf envoy. However, my wish is that there will be no demon hunters in the world. Then we can live peacefully without becoming elf envoys!" The red and blue gemstone wristband flashed.
, the girl’s ethereal and melodious voice came out.
"Yes, we haven't been back for a long time. Let's pack up in the past few days and go back!" the middle-aged man said softly, with a strong voice but endless tenderness.
"Well, let's finish the work at hand and go back!"
"Okay!" The middle-aged man disappeared at the bottom of the lake instantly.
