Chapter 465: Investigation Mission
A pure white battlecruiser sailed into the central star field of the Weilan Empire, and the patrol fleet of the Imperial Customs also retreated three feet when they saw the sign on the bow of this battleship.
Whoever dares to stop the warships of the investigation group under the jurisdiction of the Star Alliance Inquisition, they can't wait as far as they can hide.
A team member in a silver combat suit in the main control room of the warship's bridge reports on the progress of the mission.
"The four ordinary investigators of the fishbone group involved in the operation have been confirmed dead, and one person is seriously injured and infected with the virus, as for 0208 investigator Fernand, he is missing, and there has been no response so far, all communication equipment has not been able to get the corresponding information, and his location cannot be determined, and attempts to forcibly teleport back have not been successful"
"Where's the target?"
"The other party has already left Vitansev, and the target of the next stop is Muzi Shuangxing"
"Continue to lock the other party's whereabouts, and tell them not to act rashly,
"Did you find anything else out of the ordinary?"
"According to Fernand's last mission report, they inadvertently clashed with each other, and the combat effectiveness of the target person was far greater than previously estimated, and this was the last image he transmitted."
The person who spoke released a light curtain, and the picture played in the light curtain kept flickering, apparently due to strong signal interference during transmission, and only Fernand could be seen injured, and then the picture changed to a snowflake screen, and it was impossible to see who was fighting Fernand from beginning to end.
"Another thing, as far as we know from our investigation, there is a local civilian in Vitansfu Nanyuan City who has been infected with a similar virus for nearly a year, but the condition has been effectively controlled in the past two days."
"The investigation of this matter must be investigated, and the search for Fernand's traces must also be carried out as soon as possible."
"Yes, sir"
The captain of the fourth ship of the Investigation Group, Conan, one hundred and thirteen years old, the captain of the battleship of the Investigation Group who is famous in the universe, lowered his head at this time and tapped the armrest of the seat from time to time. Seems a little irritable.
Virus?
Conan knew that this was nothing more than what the Institute claimed. In fact, those old men have not studied clearly what it is that leads to the weakness of the human body, the festering, and the destruction of the immune system.
Investigate secretly, the overall situation is important, and it is annoying to think about it.
This time the matter was more tricky than expected, at the expense of two investigators, he still didn't find out the details of the other party, and even Fernand was not an opponent, so he was still nowhere to be found at this time. I don't know what the situation is with that kid now, he was captured. Or on the run?
The edge of the secret realm of the bamboo forest is filled with a layer of dense fog that cannot be seen through, these fogs are just the additional light and shadow effects added by Master Brad to his spatial enchantment, which can be seen, touched, and fooled, but it adds a touch of mystery and antiquity to the entire bamboo forest.
In two days, Mo Ye had already walked around the bamboo forest. Sure enough, there is no shortcut to leave.
Fernand, the man with the broken arm, was sitting next to Mo Ye at this time, fiddling with a boxy instrument with the surviving hand.
"Alas, there is still no signal"
In the past two days, Fernande tried to contact his teammates for many minutes, but all failed, and even the directional space transmission failed. At this moment, he was holding an ancient special signal in his hand, which received signals in a different way and could ignore most obstacles, but it was clear that this thing had tragically failed in this place of the Bamboo Forest Secret Realm.
Fernand scratched his head in annoyance. What if you can't get out, won't you have to break your arm for the rest of your life?
Mo Ye kicked a small stone on his toes and hit Fernand, who was doing useless work, "Let's go, go back to eat" How could Master Brad's spatial enchantment not even be able to handle a small signal.
Fernand raised his head and clenched his claws, "Miss Mo, don't be discouraged, we will definitely find a way out"
Mo Ye glanced at Fernand, it was not me who was discouraged.
On the way back, the two passed by the small bamboo building in the depths of the bamboo forest, remembering Bass's description of the bamboo building, Mo Yejing walked towards the bamboo building, and was stopped by the guards as soon as he walked to the periphery.
"I'm sorry, Miss Mo, I can't enter here"
"Whose home is this, why can't you go?"
"No one lives here, it's a forbidden place in the village, it's very dangerous inside, no one is allowed to approach it"
Another bearded guard was much more fierce, "Two new arrivals learn the rules, don't run around, this is not the place you came from, leave quickly"
Mo Ye squinted slightly and turned to leave.
The two of them walked quickly, but they were back in the village in only four or five minutes.
Chen Zhongshou's family of eight people, from the head of the family, Chen Zhongshou and his wife, as well as Chen Er to Chen Liu, all sat at the table and waited.
"You're back, come and eat"
"Yes, yes, come on"
Several people looked at Mo Ye and Fernand with sparkling eyes.
This family likes to listen to Fernand talk about the new things happening in the outside world during dinner, especially the children, except for Chen Da and Chen Er, the other four are all born in this secret realm and have never been in contact with the outside world.
After the energy mine ran out a few years ago, I couldn't even look at the videos stored in the light screen.
The whole village is in the most primitive state, there is no electricity, no monitors, no energy weapons, the sun rises, the sun sets, the real ancient primitive village.
The staple food is bamboo, bamboo shoots, bamboo leaves, and you can eat some mushrooms with a meal, which is completely to evolve into the rhythm of a panda!
"Brother Fei, tell me what a mecha is and what a flying machine is?"
"How did that battle end, did the pirates get it?"
The youngest, Chen Wu and Chen Liu, couldn't wait to start asking questions.
Fernand took a bite of the crunchy bamboo shoot and said with a smile, "Of course that pirate didn't, evil prevails, and the Covenant investigation team finally found the weakness of the other party"
Mo Ye drank bamboo leaf syrup quietly, chatting with Chen Zhongshou and his wife.
Fresh bamboo leaves are boiled with natural sweet grass, which is fragrant and elegant, and the taste is very good with the tender bamboo shoots marinated in natural sauce.
Mo Ye took out some small snacks from the space ring, and was quickly snatched up by a few children, meat food, Mo Ye is not going to take it out, who knows if it will stimulate a few more people who want to eat people, and the consequences of being a vegetarian for a long time and suddenly opening meat can not be predicted at all.
When Chen Zhongshou heard the battles described by Fernand, he sighed with emotion: "Alas, more than 40 years have passed since I came here, and I don't know what happened in the outside world, and I don't know if the old man at home is still there, and my friends probably think I'm dead!"
In the past few decades, it has been completely out of touch with the outside world, and the daily life is not to cut bamboo, eat bamboo, or make children, and the only interesting thing is probably to watch his wife in an environment surrounded by wolves, and the temptation outside is great, and it is challenging to persuade his wife to insist on monogamy.
Mo Ye's understanding of the advanced civilization star field may not be as good as that of these two people who have been isolated from the world for decades, and the very self-aware mage never expresses his opinions indiscriminately, so it is not good to make jokes.
"You've been here for more than 40 years, and you've never seen anyone leave?"
Hearing Mo Ye's words, Chen Zhongshou frowned and thought for a while, "That's not true, if there was a way, everyone would have left a long time ago, who wants to stay in this place for the rest of their lives"
Mo Ye remembered the experience of being stopped before, and asked, "I heard Bass mention the small bamboo building in the depths of the bamboo forest, I wanted to go and see it at noon today, but I was intercepted by the guards, why are no people allowed to approach there?"
"Oh, yes, that bamboo building is dangerous, and there are rules in the village that you can't approach at will"
Chen Zhongshou's wife had a different opinion, and said in a low voice, "I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but there was once a rumor in the village that the bamboo building in the middle of the bamboo forest was the passage to leave here, and the people who had entered it never appeared again, and the village chief said that they were killed by the mechanism in the bamboo building, but I think they found a way out and left."
"No one has been looking?"
"Why not, but I can't get in, I heard that there is a defense system in the bamboo building, ordinary people can't get in, and when we arrived here, the village chief had already pulled a cordon outside the bamboo building, and it was not allowed to cross casually, otherwise it would be against the village rules."
Mo Ye frowned slightly, the old village chief really had a problem.
In any case, this small bamboo building is definitely going to go, it must be the annex built by Master Bled, and the teleportation array that went out must be among them.
Mo Ye had already decided in his heart that he would go to the bamboo building after dark today.
At eight o'clock in the evening of the star standard time, the sky was dark in the secret realm of the bamboo forest, there was no electricity, no light energy, the villagers could only use torches to illuminate, and most of them went to bed early.
In Chen Zhongshou's house, the couple blew torches but did not fall asleep.
"Ah Zhong, do you think we will be able to leave here alive in this life?"
"There will be a chance, there will be a chance"
Chen Zhongshou didn't think about it, maybe the village chief was hiding something, but the village chief has been here for nearly two hundred years and is the most authoritative representative, and at the same time, the strong combat power of the village chief's eleventh-level physical skill also determines his social status, which is the undisputed leader of their more than a thousand people, and he can only bury that suspicion in his heart.
Otherwise, it will only be like those who died of strange diseases inexplicably, dying in an unknown manner, and the corpses were eaten by the two monsters of Bass and Ron.
It can also be said that he brought up this topic with Inknight at lunch, he could see that Inknight and Fernand were determined to leave here, and he had great confidence in Inknight's force value after the last time he witnessed Inknight kill Bass and Ron.
I hope that I can take my children to see the beautiful starry sky in my lifetime, instead of this boxy black curtain.
At this time, the ink night that was originally lying in the room suddenly disappeared, and when he opened his eyes again, he had already appeared next to the small bamboo building in the depths of the bamboo forest.
The small bamboo building has three floors high, the bottom is overhead, simple and quiet, a stream meanders from the bottom of the bamboo building, the stream is murmuring, the same as in the daytime, the dead corner of the bamboo building has guards standing guard, a posture of strict guard.
