Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Verge
As the night passed, the island of Vize was calm, and the helicopters that flew in in the early hours of the morning showed no sign of flying out.
This calm lasted until about nine o'clock in the morning, when twenty yachts and sixty motorboats suddenly appeared on several piers separated from Iceland and WisΓ© Island and began to march towards Vize Island.
It was impossible for the yachts to get close to the island due to the draft, but the motorboats were driven straight off the coast of Wiese Island. As soon as these people were in place, there was also a lot of movement on the island. Ten convoys suddenly appeared from different locations on the island, and as soon as they appeared, they sped away non-stop towards the location where there were yachts on the shore. Each of the ten teams had three or four cars, but each team had to have a pickup truck, and each of these pickup trucks had a one-meter-square black metal box fixed to the back of the truck.
The picture detected by the high-altitude drone was transmitted to David and Lao K for the first time, Zhang Wei could naturally see it, and the three of them immediately realized that the other party was about to transfer, and so many convoys and yachts were dispatched in order to confuse people's eyes and ears, so that the people around them could not distinguish between reality and fiction.
The same situation was also discovered by the other two forces, and in the face of this situation, some people reacted immediately, only to see that the convoy on Wiese Island had not yet joined the yacht, and five "Mi-171" armed transport helicopters immediately took off the coast of Iceland and flew in the direction of Wiese Island, and at the same time, more than a dozen large yachts left the dock and headed for the direction of Weser Island.
"Mr. Shi, what do we do?" Davy looked at the situation on the screens of several laptops and asked Zhang Wei for instructions.
Zhang Wei stared at the laptop screen in front of him, pointed to the convoy that Fisher had explained to the depot and said, "Focus on this convoy for me, and see who is guarding the box in the back of this pickup truck." β
"Yes!" Davy immediately took out his phone and contacted his men.
David hung up the phone in his hand, and immediately operated on one of the laptops, the picture on the screen began to get bigger, the picture quality became clearer, and the faces of the three people in the back bucket of the pickup truck became clear, and the drone quickly sent the screenshots of the faces of the three people back to the laptop, and David compared them with the computer database, and said: "Mr. Shi, these three people can't be found, and they can't figure out their identities." β
Zhang Wei frowned when he heard this, and said: "Hurry up and take pictures of the other nine teams, and see who the people in the back of the pickup trucks of the other teams are, especially to see if there is Graham Yost, speed." β
David immediately called again and began to operate the computer. The convoy was about to merge with the yacht on the shore, and David finally gave a comparison conclusion.
After comparing the characters in the rear buckets of the ten convoy pickup trucks, four or five pickup trucks were guarded by known high-level mutants, all of which were in the four countries, but the existence of Graham Yost as mentioned by Zhang Wei was not found.
Seeing that the helicopter gunship was about to reach the sky over Weize Island, Zhang Wei felt
I couldn't wait any longer, and immediately said: "David, contact the old snake and tell them to wait for my order, I have to find out which box our mission target is in first." β
"Ah, I'm afraid it's not right, that box looks like it's made of lead, you ......" David saw that Zhang Wei was going to act alone, and immediately remembered that Zhang Wei was the person in charge of this mission, and wanted to persuade him at the first time. Because there may be a battle between mutants, if Zhang Wei has a problem at this critical moment, then the Huaxia side will fall into a situation where the dragons are leaderless, after all, for this kind of confrontation between non-humans, Lao K still can't command, then the mission is likely to fail.
"Breeder, it's too risky. Staying by Zhang Wei's side, Lin Xiaoling directly interrupted David's words and also expressed her objection.
"There's no way around it now, don't worry, I'm measured. Zhang Wei said stubbornly, and said to Lin Xiaoling: "You just stay here and wait for my news." β
After speaking, Zhang Wei immediately left the cabin, entered the sea water from the stern, performed a "deep water walk", and quickly swam in the direction of Vize Island.
When he was about to arrive at Vize Island, Zhang Wei suddenly found that there were traces of two conventional submarines in the waters ahead, and immediately cast a camouflage on himself, trying to blend himself with the sea water to avoid being discovered by these submarines, and at the same time swam towards the sea area where he released the "Vine Python Disaster" yesterday, where all the detectors and other things were destroyed yesterday, and it is estimated that the four-nation alliance will not be able to replenish it so quickly, and from here close to Vize Island, it once again reduces the possibility of being discovered by the other party.
At the same time that Zhang Wei was approaching Vize Island, five gunships hung in the air, opened the hatch, and then seven or eight people jumped into the sea on each helicopter, and those yachts also came to the yachts that belonged to the four-nation alliance that were docked around Vize Island, but these yachts did not continue to get closer, but only dispersed and stopped near the yachts of the four-nation alliance. Those who jumped into the sea are gone, they should be hidden in the sea, it seems that these people are all water powers, otherwise they can't be lurking in the sea for so long without showing their faces, these people are like assassins hiding in the corner, you don't know when they will attack the enemy.
I don't know if it was affected by helicopters and yachts, after the convoy that had reached the shore stopped, it did not unload the black box, but everyone in the car got out of the car, and the armed personnel who came down from the motorboat belonging to the four-nation coalition army all opened the weapon insurance on the shore to be on guard, and there was no other action, this move not only made the hovering helicopter feel strange, but also made David, who was monitoring Vize Island, feel puzzled.
For a time, the four-nation alliance and the meteorite-seeking centaurs formed a kind of confrontation, and neither side further provoked the other.
Just as the two sides were confronting each other, Zhang Wei also came to the shore of Vize Island fifty meters under the water, and he had already stared at a pickup truck parked on the shore under the sea, and launched the "Eagle Eye Technique" and "True Eye" to look at the black metal box.
The black metal box was indeed made of lead and other metals, as David said, in order to isolate some of the detectors
and the exploration of abilities such as the clairvoyant eye, but Zhang Wei's "true eye" is not an ability, but a kind of magic, and its operating principle is completely different from the ability, so this metal box is useless to Zhang Wei, Zhang Wei glanced at the metal box, and found that there was a stone inside, but Zhang Wei did not feel any elements and strange fluctuations on this stone, and it looked like an ordinary stone. So Zhang Wei slowly re-entered the water and swam along the seabed to another shore.
The confrontation between the two sides lasted for more than half an hour, and Zhang Wei used this time to detect eight metal boxes, and he found that there were stones in each box, but they were all the same as the first box, and they felt like ordinary stones, not meteorites at all.
Just as Zhang Wei was about to swim towards the next target, a loud whistle came from a distance, and he saw a modern military fleet suddenly appear on the sea in the distance north of Weize Island, which was slowly heading towards the vicinity of Weize Island. At the same time, four submarines under the waters of Vize Island also began to surface, and the appearance of these two waves of war, which at first glance was at the disposal of the state apparatus, greatly shocked the yachts cruising around Vize Island and the helicopter gunships in the air. However, these people are obviously also determined to get the meteorite, and they have no intention of evacuating when they see that the four-nation coalition forces have even dispatched submarines and warships.
When the fleet and submarines appeared in the distance, the convoy crews on the island, who had been standing still, moved and at the same time carried the black metal box, fixed it to a large floating board, and then connected it to the motorboat on the shore by rope, apparently ready to be sent to the yacht by the motorboat. Seeing the actions of the islanders, the five helicopters in the air aimed their noses at several Shikoku yachts not far from the shore, which clearly meant that they were about to launch an attack, and the yachts in the distance were further closer to the yachts of Shikoku, and some people came out of the cabin and stood on the deck, while the mutants with water abilities that were originally hidden in the sea were slowly approaching the four submarines in the sea, and a big war was about to break out.
In Iceland, which is no more than a kilometer away from the island of Wiese, many people are not surprised to see that it is a yacht and a helicopter, but the warships and submarines that appear in the distance really frighten these ordinary people, and these people realize that this place is wrong, and they have begun to hide from the shore in nearby buildings. Some brave people took out their mobile phones and began to shoot the sea and the sky above Weese Island, wanting to record all this.
Just as helicopters, yachts, and shore personnel were in tension, a flare suddenly rose into the air somewhere on the island of Wiese, and a light fog spread from the island in all directions, and in just a few seconds it became thicker, covering some of the coast, and spreading out to the sea at a very fast speed.
Zhang Wei saw the dense fog appear, and knew that this should be the mutant's ability again, designed to interfere with everyone's vision, in the face of this situation, Zhang Wei sped up and came to the ninth metal box, when the metal box was carried down, Zhang Wei just had an angle to see the reality inside the metal box, but found that this metal box was no different from the metal box he had checked before.
In just a few tens of seconds, the dense fog completely covered the entire Vizeh Island, and people in Iceland thousands of kilometers away could no longer see anything in the sea near Vizeh Island and in the sky above it.
