Chapter 122: [Secret of the Abyss] Prologue

[1] Yuta Tomigashi

(Forbidden World, Monday, January 10, 2011; Innsmouth, Massachusetts, USA)

"It's messed up, it's all messed up...... Anyway, isn't the school you looking for?"

When they learned the news of their encounter with Mikoto Misaka from the spiritual connection, Yuta Tomigashi and Yuyaka Kotori were all stunned for a moment, and then they all began to complain frantically, to which Sora Akiyama said that he was also helpless.

"I ghost know where Sister Pao's elementary school is, this Ruiyun Primary School is still searched on the Internet. Anyway, are you going to go to Innsmouth first, which seems to be completely back to normal, right?"

In February 1928, the U.S. federal government, after launching an investigation into the ancient harbor town of Innsmouth, Massachusetts, decisively and carefully planned to blow up and burn a large number of dilapidated houses located in the waterfront deserted area. Divers and hybrids living in the area were arrested in batches and sent to secret prisons, and Innsmouth became almost empty for a while.

But that was a century ago. Today's Innsmouth is just a small town in the middle of nowhere, where news of genetic diseases, devil worship, and evil sacrifices hasn't been heard for decades. The asphalt-paved roads are smooth and wide, and there is no trace of decay in the past, and the old demolished homesteads are lined with high-end whitewashed houses, and sailboats and yachts are moored at the sea.

Yuta Tomigashi and Rokuka Tori Rokuka hold hands and stroll side by side through the streets of Innsmouth. He had scanned it back and forth several times with his divine thoughts, and he didn't find anything out of the ordinary. The sun-drenched town is shrouded in a calm and peaceful atmosphere, and the vegetation that grows in the marshes is lush, making it impeccable as a recreation area for the wealthy.

"Yuta...... How could this be!" The petite girl tugged at his sleeve, and her eyes were ice blue and blazing gold, respectively, and turned, "Can you just go straight to Lalaye under the sea......?"

Yuta Tomigashi was startled when he heard this, and then struck a knife on the other party's head without hesitation.

"Hmm! Yuta is too good!"

"Don't forget, our actions can have a big impact on the world. He looked at the girl who deliberately made a pitiful appearance, and rubbed the other party's hair with a smile, "The consequences of rashly releasing the sleeping old ruler are much more serious than seeing Mikoto Misaka in advance." ”

"Hmph, what's that! The Evil King's True Eye is the strongest, even if the Evil God gets out of control, he will definitely be able to turn the tide!"

Seeing this, Yuta Tomigashi shook his head, and no longer had a pointless dispute with this girl. It wasn't the first time he'd heard similar words, but after nearly a month in this world, he didn't think that he would be able to run amok after strengthening his setting.

If it is the Cthulhu Mythos system derived from Dressers, there is really nothing to be afraid of the evil gods who can be divided into elements and ranks, and with their magical attainments, they can completely design techniques according to their nature to restrain them, and it is even possible that many evil gods have been overthrown by the magicians of this world.

However, what if the evil god system of this world follows the original work of the master of love? Without a clear setting, it is neither knowable nor theoretical, and all kinds of incomprehensible great existences, how can such an enemy be measured by the small word "combat effectiveness"?

"Y'ha-nthlei was not destroyed when humans living on the surface of the Earth fired death into the ocean...... Deep divers never perish, and even if the forgotten Old Dominators sometimes use ancient magic to contain them, they will not be wiped out entirely. ”

He chewed carefully on the original novel from the real world, trying to find some subtle clue in it.

"For now, deep divers will take a break and recuperate, but one day, if they don't forget, they will answer the call of the great Cthulhu and rise again and reappear. Next time, they will target cities that are larger than Innsmouth. They are planning to expand outward, and have cultivated creatures willing to help them, but at this moment, they must once again wait for their time. ”

"A bigger city than Innsmouth...... Creatures willing to help them have been bred...... Waiting for the right time?"

Yuta Tomigashi felt as if he had grasped something, but he always felt that something was missing. Perhaps, as Lovecraft said, the inability of the mortal mind to relate what is known to each other is the most merciful thing in the world. Once the gruesome picture of the real world, hidden among seemingly unrelated fragments of knowledge, is revealed, the vast majority of people will fall into madness before such revelations, or flee the deadly light and take refuge in a dark new age of peace and tranquility.

The strengthened organs of the mind and the structure of his mind may have saved him from falling into madness, but some inexplicable intuition still warned him to always exercise the utmost caution, trembling, walking on thin ice, as if he were on the edge of an abyss.

"What kind of time will that be? What kind of creatures are they?" he suddenly remembered the remarkable biotechnology of the former rulers, and the organisms known as Shoggers, but then something even more terrifying came to his mind, "Or is it some group hidden in human society?"

[2] Huangquanchuan Aisui

(Forbidden World, Friday, January 14, 2011, morning; School City, Airport in the 23rd District)

In a hidden airport lounge, Aiho Huang Quanchuan rested quietly on the sofa with her eyes closed, and standing next to her was Po Ping Dongjing, a man with [metal manipulation] ability.

"Well, what the hell is going on above, and in the blink of an eye, they started to play cooperation. Po Pingdongjing lowered his head and fiddled with the data terminal for a while, as if he was very dissatisfied with this dull atmosphere, and then spoke out to break the silence, "But I really didn't expect to be in a group with you." ”

"To be honest, I didn't expect to act with you next. Huang Quanchuan Aiho responded lightly.

As members of the Shadow Organization,Their work doesn't depend on their own will.,It's up to the decision-making top of the school city-the overall council.。 Normally, the shadows have their own responsibilities and in most cases have no intersection with each other, and when there is conflict within the council, they are the guns in the hands of the higher-ups.

This joint operation seemed to her to be quite rare. The big names behind Bolt and Comb have always been at odds with each other, and as soon as the conflict intensified some time ago, they were suppressed by some more powerful force, and it is obvious that there is a huge relationship of interest.

"California...... What the hell is it for?"

Huang Izumikawa Aiho was tasked with going to the local area to disguise himself as a bodyguard, while Po Hei Dongjing was to conduct an academic visit as a Japanese technical expert, and then they would infiltrate a scientific expedition team to act as an opportunity. What is unusual is that the above did not provide any detailed information in advance this time, and they did not know anything except that the content of the scientific expedition was related to geology.

"Whew...... My plane is about to take off, go first. ”

"Well, that's it, see you then. ”

The U.S. authorities won't casually let people from the school city enter the country.,What's more, it's a vicious party like them who can't even see their identity.,So Poping Dongjing had to start from Japan with a fake identity.,And she infiltrated the United States through secret channels.。

"Bodyguard...... The above means to go to that agricultural group for a while. Huang Quanchuan Aiho was the only one left in the room, and when he had nothing to do, he went through the mission information again, "I don't know how many people I have to kill this time." ”

There was a sigh of silence in the chamber, and then it fell silent again. About half an hour later, the personnel assisting her in the infiltration appeared at the door.
