Hearing this, Vincent couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "What happened next was actually nothing too special. After helping me become an esper, Teacher Vincent told me about the underground city in Kalk City.
He told me everything that happened, and then he started leading me around the world to search dungeons..."
"The process of exploring the underground city was not smooth. After all, the entrance location of each underground city has no obvious characteristics. Although Teacher Christopher made a very detailed table based on the characteristics of the entrance to the underground city in Kalk City,
The effect was not obvious. For two years, the ability users who were sent out to explore the dungeon reported very few results. Moreover, after the teacher conducted an on-site inspection, he found that these places suspected of being the entrance to the dungeon were all fake.
Most of them were just wartime bomb shelters."
"The conquering of the 's' gene is in trouble, and the new dungeon has yet to be found. The work of the entire institute has almost come to a standstill. In addition, Teacher Christopher's savings are almost exhausted.
The research institute at that time could be said to have reached the brink of collapse.”
"At this time, good news suddenly came from Eros. A strange sight called the 'Doomsday Sinkhole' was discovered on the Yamal Peninsula. It immediately attracted the attention of bioarchaeology and academic circles all over the world.
Attention, and Teacher Christopher naturally knew about this matter. Just when he was about to lead the team to the tiankeng of the end of the world, a mysterious rich man from London came to his door and asked Teacher Christopher to lead him.
A group of his men went to the Doomsday Tiankeng to look for the 'treasure'."
"Treasure? What treasure can be found in this ghost place?"
Hearing this, Lin Cheng couldn't help but be startled and asked.
Smiling, Vincent said with a sarcastic face: "You may not know that one thing that is very popular in Western upper class society is treasure hunting! But there are many people hunting for treasures, but there are very few real treasures. In this kind of situation
Under such circumstances, once a new 'wonder' appears on the Blue Star, these rich people will swarm it like mosquitoes smelling blood! In fact, for these rich people, the value of the treasure is not important, they enjoy the exclusiveness more.
With the sense of accomplishment of owning rare treasures, they will not hesitate to spend huge sums of money for these illusory vanities!"
"Although Mr. Christopher is clearly a well-known expert in London biology, five years ago he began to lead many research institute staff to search for dungeons around the world. Unknowingly, Chris
Teacher Dov's title as the "first explorer in the biological world" has spread in London's circle. Before the sinkholes of the apocalypse appeared, many rich people came to visit him, hoping to help them travel to various places on the Blue Star.
Explorations were carried out in untrodden areas, but all were rejected without exception!”
"You should also know the reason for the refusal. After all, the goal of the teacher and the others has never been to explore but to search the dungeon. But this time the teacher cannot refuse. First, because the research institute's fund reserves have been basically exhausted, and the offer given by the rich man
The price is extremely attractive, and if there is no further inflow of funds, food for the entire institute will be a problem, and the teacher does not allow awakened ability users to use their abilities to make money without authorization, so the teacher can no longer refuse no matter what. On the other hand, there is
Because, the teacher has a vague feeling that this so-called apocalyptic sinkhole is very likely to be the new dungeon that everyone has been dreaming about!"
Hearing this, Lin Cheng couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Interesting, isn't it just because someone gave me a pillow when I fell asleep?"
"That's pretty much what it means."
Vincent also laughed and said: "The mysterious rich man never imagined that he wanted to spend a big sum of money to buy a head start just because Teacher Christopher was famous enough, but he inadvertently gave the troubled research
The rebirth brought about by you will be."
"With a large amount of funds provided by the rich man, Teacher Christopher led all the researchers in the institute who had awakened their abilities, including me, and dozens of mercenaries provided by the rich man on a journey to explore the sinkhole of the apocalypse."
"Due to Teacher Christopher's extremely fast movements, it only took less than two days from the time the rich man came to our door to the time we set off. When we arrived at the small town of Novi near the Doomsday Tiankeng, many official researchers were still there.
They hadn’t set off yet, and the town of Novi was extremely deserted at that time. According to locals, if it hadn’t been for the discovery of a doomsday sinkhole nearby, the residents of their town would probably never see more than a hundred outsiders in their lifetime.
"
"Well, judging from the location of the town of Novi in Eros, this is not an exaggeration."
Recalling the situation in Novi Town, Lin Cheng nodded and said in agreement.
Vincent continued: "After arriving in the small town of Novi, I thought we would immediately go to the apocalyptic sinkhole after taking a rest, but Teacher Christopher gave me a task and asked me to find a way to sneak into the sinkhole.
In the underground research institute that has just been built in the town! Although our speed is already very fast, no matter how fast we are, we can’t reach the Eros official. After the official realized that this sinkhole is likely to attract a large number of scientific researchers,
, and even established a research institute in the small town of Novi as soon as possible for scientific researchers sent from various countries to work. On the one hand, it is to generate income, and on the other hand, it is also to protect these "national treasures" in various countries.
Scientific researchers, this is why the officials insist on building the research institute in the town instead of next to the sinkhole."
"Huh? That's not right."
Hearing this, Lin Cheng suddenly felt something was wrong and asked: "According to the timeline you gave, you followed your teacher to the small town of Novi three years before the end of the world and infiltrated into the institute.
, but why would Mia say that you are their lead teacher? Isn’t this a good match?"
"No no no..."
Hearing Lin Cheng's doubts, Vincent waved his hand and said: "You may not be aware that the underground research institute in Novi Town does not belong to any single force or country. Researchers from all countries can obtain it as long as their identities are
If you are certified, you can enter and exit the institute at will and even serve as a team leader there. As we said before when we were in the institute, although the facilities of the institute in the small town of Novi are quite complete, the scale is still too small.
The need for confidentiality between various countries is such that most of the front-line scientific researchers from various countries regard it as a transit station, and then all are stationed in the building complex below the apocalyptic sinkhole. Except for some with poor physical conditions, those who remain in the institute
Apart from those who are unable to travel long distances, the only remaining ones are young reserve personnel sent by various countries to learn and gain knowledge."
