On 28 April 2004, the United Nations Security Council, under Chapter VII of the Charter of the United Nations, unanimously adopted resolution 1540 (2004), affirming that the proliferation of nuclear, chemical and biological weapons and their means of delivery constitutes a threat to international peace and security. The resolution requires States, inter alia, to refrain from supporting in any form the development, acquisition, manufacture, possession, transport, transfer or use of nuclear, chemical or biological weapons and their means of delivery by non-State actors.

However, the jurisdiction of this team, known as Operation Group 1540, is under the umbrella of the United Nations Narcotics Control Board, which in itself is very contradictory. The most incomprehensible thing is that this 1540 action group does not appear in any of the documents of the United Nations 1540 Committee, whether public or private, in other words, it does not exist to the outside world.

Only a few people know that the composition of the 1540 action group is a replica of a multinational joint force called the "Sawfish Force" formed by the United Nations many years ago, and it is said that it is only composed of China, the United States and Russia.

That incident made the United Nations realize that if the United Nations itself did not have an operational force of its own and would weigh global interests, it would be passive at every turn, so it urgently selected and selected police officers or military personnel from among the permanent members to form training camps within the United Nations two and a half years ago, and then selected the members of the action team on the basis of these people.

Two and a half years later, the 1540 team had grown to 500 people. There are 20 operational groups around the world that can be mobilized at any time, but unfortunately, even with such an operational group, there is still no way to effectively curb the global proliferation of nuclear weapons and biological and chemical weapons, and the casualties of the operational groups are increasing, and more than 70% of the casualties are caused by so-called "friendly forces".

Andrew is the commander of this UN force who has flown many missions and returned alive – there are not many such commanders.

Andrew also doesn't understand why they want to stop the proliferation of nuclear weapons and chemical and biological weapons, but they have to belong to the United Nations Narcotics Control Board. Hide people's eyes? No, it sounds like sarcasm, like someone is slapping him with a waving palm.

"You're not mercenaries. You are warriors. It is the warriors chosen by all mankind to exist for eternal peace! This is what Andrew must say when he is training recruits, because when he was in the 1540 operation group, he also heard the senior United Nations official say something that made his blood boil.

Andrew was a war orphan who learned how to walk in the midst of war. How to run. How to eat independently. Or even how to kill people...... He hated war, but he couldn't live without it.

He was seriously wounded in the last of the rebel counter-offensive and was saved by the peacekeepers. He was then selected by the 1540 Committee and brought back to the United States for treatment.

It was Andrew's first trip to the United States, and it was only then that he discovered that there really existed in the world that there were countries that had not ignited the flames of war. But Andrew, who thought he could come down easily, fell into fear again, because when he saw the doctors and nurses with happy smiles, what came to his mind was the eternal expressionless and wooden compatriots in his homeland, who seemed to have long forgotten what laughter was.

Andrew then joined in 1540, after he knew that the purpose of this force was peace, and although he had previously wanted to join the peacekeeping force, he was not qualified because he no longer had a country.

In the strange army of 1540, there are many "dead people" who have no country and no household registration, but they all have one thing in common, that is, the war of hatred.

"There were two groups of men, whether they were in a group or not, and it was clear from the footprints that a larger group had left first, and went to the cave on the right." Andrew got up and stared at the hole on the right, the two paths in front of him were a difficult choice.

Andrew didn't dare to follow the cave on the right immediately, because if they did, the 4 people who had exchanged fire with them and now temporarily hid in the cave on the left would block them in the cave, and if the first people to go in were with those 4 people, Andrew and his men would become sandwich bread.

If they don't get in, they lose their chance, and what if they're here to destroy the evidence?

"RED, you guys come to the mine and wait where we are." Andrew called out to the other combat team on the intercom, and Red responded quickly and rushed down immediately, before Andrew led the group from under the cave on the right.

After drilling through, Andrew and his men did not show much surprise at the gold vein ore inside, but only inspected the surroundings and continued to move on. In the eyes of this group of soldiers who have grown up from the flames of war, precious resources, although not evil, must be the lead of the powder keg of war, and the more abundant the resources, the greater the likelihood of a sustained war.

"Boss, something isn't right." Team 3 behind Andrew whispered, "I've been observing the footprints, and there is no one else except the footprints of the first people who entered this cave. This is a mine, and there should be a lot of people coming in and out all year round, so how can there be no footprints of other people? Even if there's something to hide here, it's not going to wipe their footprints away when they retreat, right? ”

This problem was discovered when Andrew came in, which was one of the reasons why he realized that there was something wrong with the mine.

At the same time, Tang Shuxing, who was traveling quickly in front of the cave, also discovered a problem about footprints. The more he thought about it, the more strange he felt, and he dragged Si Zhengnan, who was trotting in front, and pointed to the ground that they hadn't walked on yet: "Why don't you have any footprints in front of you?" ”

Si Zhengnan glanced at it and put aside Tang Shuxing's hand: "You ask me, who do I ask?" ”

"You and Zhang Zhikhan were like this when they came?" Tang Shuxing stared at him, raised his hand and motioned for the others behind him not to move yet.

"He still has something to hide from us." Gu Huaiyi walked straight past the two of them, looking at the rugged cave in front of them. It was so calm that even their breathing could be heard.

"I didn't!" Si Zhengnan subconsciously looked at Gu Huaiyi's waist, where there were six daggers, he was afraid that Gu Huaiyi would nail him to the cave wall again.

"It's impossible to turn back, then keep going, and if you find that he still has something to hide, then blow off his head!" Ji Kefeng carried the SVD and removed the scope at the same time, which was completely useless in this kind of place.

Tian Yehan held the assault rifle in the direction he came, nodded and said, "I agree." ”

"Hey, I really don't know. It was the same the last time we came. I also wonder why there are no footprints in the mine, and there is no one in the mine, so ......" Si Zhengnan said this, closed his eyes and shook his head. It took a long time before he continued. "So I stopped Zhang Zhikhan from looking for the mother diamond. I took a blue diamond and left. ”

"Oh-" Tang Shuxing looked at him and nodded, "It turns out that Zhang Zhikh's original goal was the mother diamond, you are greedy for life and afraid of death, so you took a blue diamond and ran." Is that right? Wait, there's still something wrong in this matter. ”

Si Zhengnan looked at Tang Shuxing nervously, Tang Shuxing looked at Si Zhengnan who maintained the state of corpse, turned his head and asked Tian Yehan: "Yehan, when you rescued Zhang Zhikh, in the most critical situation, did Zhang Zhikhan still maintain his human form?" ”

Tian Yehan nodded: "Yes, then he used that green dragon scale blue diamond, I don't understand how he activated it, but that thing seems to be able to freeze other things, and at the same time it can also devour the holder." ”

Tang Shuxing seemed to understand, but he wasn't sure yet, but it was simple to be sure, he just needed to move on.

That's right. There is a contradiction in Si Zhengnan's words, and it can be judged from his previous words that Zhang Zhikhan was the commander of that operation, and at the same time, Zhang Zhikhmer's skills are also above Si Zhengnan, which Tian Yehan can prove. What can be said in the blue diamond mine, Si Zhengnan is greedy for life and afraid of death, so he only took an ordinary blue diamond and turned his head and left, but Zhang Zhikhan had no choice?

There is only one reason - in the blue diamond mine, only the corpse can enter, and ordinary people may be a dead end if they enter.

Whether Zhang Zhikhan is a corpse or not, although it is impossible to confirm it now, there are facts in front of him. After Tian Yehan and several other mercenaries rescued him, they encountered a crisis, if Zhang Zhikhm was a corpse, he would definitely urge the corpse to protect his life and the green dragon scales, but he didn't, he just activated the green dragon scales to temporarily relieve the crisis, and he also made a desperate bet, using his life to confirm that the stone in his hand could only produce a huge amount of energy once.

In addition, Tang Shuxing also knew very well that he obviously couldn't master the method of corpseization, and he didn't know if he would die if he would be corpsed again, but when he came into contact with the green dragon scales, that thing gave birth to his corpse again, which also showed that the green dragon scales had a special connection with corpse.

After Tang Shuxing said his speculation, Si Zhengnan was still silent, just took his hand away and walked forward.

Tang Shuxing gestured to Tian Yehan, signaling him to walk behind the most, if there was any accident, he immediately turned around and went back, leaving the others alone.

Tian Yehan just shook his head and followed the team on. After walking out of the cave, you will enter another cave, which is full of stone forests, and there are hot springs gushing out under the stone forests.

"Okay, hot springs." Tang Shuxing stood there and nodded, "This is also a vacation, right?" ”

"Passing through the Stone Forest Hot Spring Lake, walking to the other side is the entrance to the Blue Diamond Mine." After Si Zhengnan finished speaking, he took the lead in walking into the hot spring water below, walked two or three meters away, looked back at the motionless people, and motioned for them to continue to move forward.

"Hey, what's that?" Tian Yehan pointed to something that seemed to be floating in the air at the top of the stone forest in front of him, and then felt for a signal flare and fired a flare towards the top of the cave.

The flare shot into the sky above the cave, and it was quickly bounced down, and the moment it illuminated the surroundings, everyone saw that the so-called suspended in mid-air were actually black rocks, and there were various forms, the largest of which was a meter in diameter, as if these stones were out of gravity.

"Okay, the floating stones, the hot springs in the stone forest, I don't know what else will happen next." Tang Shuxing patted Tian Yehan, "For us, this kind of scene is not strange, if you have also seen giant worms and walking plants, you will not be surprised by this kind of thing, let's go." As he spoke, Tang Shuxing raised the rifle in his hand and slowly walked towards the other side of the hot spring lake, Gu Huaiyi followed, followed by Ji Kefeng, Tian Yehan was stunned for about ten seconds before slowly walking up, lifting the backpack and other things above his head.

"Si Zhengnan, are you sure that the blue diamond mine is the one you walked over?" Gu Huaiyi asked Si Zhengnan, who was leading the way in front, Si Zhengnan said "um", Tang Shuxing looked sideways and found that he had been staring at those suspended stones, as if he was very nervous about those things.

"Shhhhhhh

Tang Shuxing also turned his head to stare at the suspended stones, and found that the stones were not only suspended, but also slowly turning, all the stones rotated in the same direction, clockwise, and the frequency was also the same, and the lines on the surface of the stones seemed to have been seen somewhere, so unnatural, except for coal, where could any stone be so black?

In the midst of volcanoes, there are indeed crystalline volcanic rocks, but this kind of stone is not even translucent.

Tang Shuxing slowly stopped, gently dragging Gu Huaiyi who was following Si Zhengnan, Gu Huaiyi looked sideways at him and stopped, and then Tang Shuxing turned his head towards Tian Yehan and Ji Kefeng behind, and raised a finger, signaling them not to move, let Si Zhengnan go by himself.

Si Zhengnan in front walked more and more urgently, not caring about the people behind him at all, the closer he got to the opposite shore of the hot spring lake, the more anxious he became, even the pace under the water became faster, and even threw the clothes he was wearing in the water, for a long time, when he was about to walk to the shore, he suddenly stopped, and looked back at Tang Shuxing and the others who remained in place.

"Why are you stopping?" Si Zhengnan looked at them and asked, showing an unnatural smile.

"Our ankles were grabbed by something, we couldn't move, we didn't dare to move!" Tang Shuxing looked at Si Zhengnan and lied, and the hot spring was steaming, making them sweat profusely.

"Impossible!" Si Zhengnan blurted out, but refused to walk back, "You guys take a step and try it?" ”

"Really." Tang Shuxing glanced down at the surface of the hot spring, "We are worried that if we move, our legs will be gone." ”

Tian Yehan also nodded, and Ji Kefeng and Gu Huaiyi also immediately cooperated with him, saying that they really couldn't move.

"It's still about ten meters away! Let's go! There is definitely nothing underwater! Si Zhengnan stood there anxiously and waved his hand, "Hurry up!" ”

"Hey-" Tang Shuxing raised the gun in his hand and asked Si Zhengnan, "Mr. Si Zhengnan, why are you so sure that there is nothing underwater?" ”

"This ......" Si Zhengnan was stunned for a moment, and immediately said, "Can there be living creatures in the hot spring water?" No! So you're kidding, come on, walk through the volcanic rocks behind here and you'll be in the blue diamond mine. ”

Tang Shuxing pulled the bolt of the gun and raised the gun to aim at Si Zhengnan's head: "Brother Nan, you seem to be very serious about my jokes!" Say, what the hell is going on? ”

Si Zhengnan was still pretending to be stupid: "What's wrong?" ”

"Okay!" Tang Shuxing aimed at Si Zhengnan's shoulder, pulled the trigger, the bullet hit Si Zhengnan's shoulder, his eyes took off the sight, and said, "The last chance, if you don't say it, the next bullet will hit your death hole, eye!" ”

"You're too careful." Si Zhengnan said, squinting at the volcanic rock on one side, and then slammed towards that side, hiding behind the volcanic rock, and shouted loudly, "Do it!" (To be continued......)
