Chapter 366: The Twelve Divine Messengers (1)
The situation was pretty bad, as the Denfalcon's men were all wiped out, and he was the only one who was taken hostage.
There was only one person holding the Electric Falcon hostage, and it was also a girl in a soldier's uniform.
"Gun God." The Grim Reaper opened the back door of the carriage and greeted the other party.
The girl nodded and beckoned me and Death to transfer the body of Lady Ice to the mountain jeep she was driving.
Seeing the Falcon again, his emotions were extremely sad.
"Everyone is vulnerable, and all the guns in the camp are passive, as long as the trigger is pulled, whether it is long or short, all of them are blown up, and there are many casualties." Electric Falcon said.
"It only takes a hand or foot on a bullet and the gun will explode. It can only be said that the brains of those under your command are rusty, and they do not regard the current situation as a formal war at all. Firearms are the life support of soldiers, and they don't even do routine firearms checks, they only know how to pull the trigger and shoot. Hehe, the people who do this are not soldiers, but robots. The girl smiled.
She has a pair of white tiger teeth, which will be exposed when she smiles, which is extremely eye-catching.
"Back to the capital?" Death asked.
"Yes, back to the capital. The god of medicine has arrived near the safe, and when we arrive, we can open the safe immediately. The spear god replied.
The spear god drove, and me, the electric falcon, and the Grim Reaper stayed in the car.
It seems that they are not worried about the electric falcon resisting, and they must have found the Achilles heel to restrain him.
The car sped along the mountain road, and after several forks in the road, it drove southeast of the Cheka town.
Soon, another new station wagon followed. After the two cars met, we all moved to the station wagon.
"The gun god knows firearms best, and she told me that when you shot at the roof sunroof, you must have only pulled the trigger fourteen times, and each of the two guns had one bullet left, right?" Death asked.
I looked at the spear god and nodded slowly.
"Sure enough, you're so insidious!" Death cried out.
The spear god also looked at me, smiling and thoughtful: "Mr. Long, I'll teach you a better technique." Next time, you can shoot fifteen times and drain the magazine, but with a bullet pre-clamped between the ring and little fingers, you can throw the bullet into the bay with a slight drop of your hand when the firing pin is empty and the chamber cannot be reset. You must know that the master who uses a gun often has amazing hearing, and the difference between firing fourteen shots and fifteen shots cannot be heard by ordinary people, but the master must be able to hear clearly. In gun duels, the winner is only a flash of thought, so deep thinking is always more important than simple gun skills. ”
I humbly accepted her advice without any hint of hostility: "Thank you for your advice." ”
As the car moved, the falcon fell into a comatose state and barely said a word.
Mourning is greater than heart death, and I believe that his psyche has been crushed by the god of death and medicine.
The car got on the highway from the Caucasus to the capital, and the speed immediately increased to more than 200 kilometers per hour.
Every ten minutes, the spear god made a phone call to contact the "medicine god", and his expression was very solemn.
I didn't have any idea of the safe, but it was clear that they took it very seriously, because on two occasions I heard the gun god repeatedly say, "Make sure everything is clear, make sure you clear the field 100 percent." ”
"You're too nervous, Gunner." Death said.
The spear god shook his head: "You don't know, this matter is careless, once there is a mistake, something big will happen, such as a catastrophe like the Tunguska explosion......"
"Haha." The Grim Reaper laughed twice, disagreeing.
"Ahem, ahem." The electric falcon woke up from a slumber and picked up the conversation without thinking, "Isn't it...... Like the Tunguska explosion? The existence of the Samsara Safe is a mistake, it can destroy the whole world, it can ...... Set human society back hundreds of years. The reason why I embedded the key in my lap was to always warn myself not to break the idea of that safe lightly. Now, I can't help myself, I am held hostage by you, and I can only do this. Alas, I don't know what your leaders think that they have to do. Unless, unless she really thinks that she is the former 'Queen of the North Sea', she can return to the Great Western Continent by entering the reincarnation safe......"
I just listened quietly, silently distilling useful knowledge from the conversation between the two sides.
"Return to the Great Western Continent? Yes, that's exactly what the Queen had planned. She will lead the Twelve Divine Envoys back to the Great Western Continent, rebuild the kingdom of Atlantis, and change the world order. The gun god said.
After hearing her words, the electric falcon sneered and kept shaking his head.
The sunken continent of Atlantis only exists in mythology, and although modern people have explored it in many ways, they have only found a few plausible underwater ruins, which are by no means the original site of Plato's "Great Western Continent".
The "Queen of the North Sea" tried to use the power of the "Reincarnation Safe" to achieve her goal, and she must have gone crazy. Of course, despite its name "Samsara Safe", it is not a safe at all, but a strange machine capable of causing incalculable mutations in the matter that enters it.
"Then she'll just die." Electric Falcon said.
"If you don't progress, you're waiting for death." The spear god retorted.
I never got involved in this topic, after all, the discussion that took place in the station wagon was just empty talk, and many things existed in the imagination, not the facts.
The car entered the capital, and without any inspection, it sped straight to the northeast corner of the city.
"The god of medicine is in place, the god of books is in place, just waiting for us to arrive." After the gun god finished the call, he turned his head and told the Grim Reaper.
"Hopefully this time it's a big deal, and we'll be able to witness Atlantis." Death sighed heartily.
Of course, I hope that miracles will happen, and that in the process of human progress, only with the help of those so-called "divine powers" can great breakthroughs be made, so that human science and technology can produce explosive and creative progress.
There are too many books about Atlantis to talk about it and argue about it that it is impossible to count. In my opinion, one of the most important related books comes from Greece called The Curse of Poseidon, the god of the sea. In that book, the author combs through the chapters of ancient Greek mythology and finally concludes that "Atlantis fell because Poseidon, the god of the sea, was cursed by the gods." ”
If a cursed forsaken continent were to reappear, it would be a sensational event that would change history, certainly more than an extraordinary event like the Tunguska explosion.
"Mr. Long, you haven't spoken for a long time, what are you thinking?" Death asked.
"Who was the first person to eat crabs?" I asked.
The safe-shaped machine had to be tried before it could be officially operational. Now, I wonder who has the courage to be the first person to eat crabs?
The Grim Reaper laughed, turned to look at the Spear God, and threw the question at her.
"No one." The spear god shook his head.
"That's the Queen of the North Sea herself as a test subject?" I asked.
"There are no test subjects, and we are 100% convinced that the safe is fine." The spear god replied.
This is, of course, the most ready-made answer, but the Queen of the North Sea may not be satisfied.
"What does Mr. Long mean, who should be the one who eats crabs?" The gun god asked.
I pointed to Mrs. Ice's body and didn't speak.
According to the Electro Falcon, he also wants to send the body of Lady Ice into that safe for a strange change.
"Okay, okay, that's it." The Spear God nodded.
Lady Ice is dead, and even if the Falcon desperately hopes to bring her back to life through the "Samsara Safe", we have to face it and admit that the odds are slim and non-existent.
Then, sending her body to the safe will achieve everyone's goal and fulfill the wish of the electric falcon.
The car drove directly into the underground garage of the Secret Archive, and instead of stopping in the parking lot, it continued on its way, driving into an unusually wide elevator.
The elevator runs downwards and reaches the fourth basement floor, where it comes to a silent stop.
The car started again, passing through a long corridor with a wooden floor, and into a hall.
Here, everyone got out of the car, and then I saw that so-called "reincarnation safe". It's so big that it completely exceeds the concept of a "safe" and resembles a car wash.
The god of medicine and the god of books are both young men, with short-sighted glasses on the bridge of their noses, and they look polite.
"Bring Mr. President." The god of medicine said.
I walked over with the Falcon in my arms and sat down on a bench.
"I'm sorry, I had to get that key out. The site conditions are simple and there is no operating table, so only the simplest surgical method can be used. However, please rest assured that the surgery is performed under anaesthesia and is painless. The god of medicine said.
The electric falcon kept his face calm and said nothing, allowing the god of medicine to move his right leg and rest it on the arm of the bench.
Next, the young man skillfully injected the falcon with anesthetic, and then used a scalpel to cut through the skin, digging deep into the muscle, and making a two-inch cut. In the blood, a corner of the Ugin key was revealed.
What is certain is that the key is engraved in ancient Sanskrit, both words and graphics. Based on my understanding of Sanskrit, I can see that those figures are mandalas, and they are empty mandalas that have never appeared in Tibet, and the styles of various utensils are all imaginary, not in real life.
The medicine god moved extremely quickly, and in three clicks and two clicks, he took out the one-foot-long black gold key, held it with tweezers, and handed it to the book god next to him.
"That's it, great, great." The book god was very happy, wiped the blood on the key with gauze, held it in both hands, and walked to the huge safe.
The front of the safe is about two meters high and three meters wide, with a keyhole in the center of the diagonal line, around which are also engraved with Sanskrit and mandalas, corresponding to the style of the key.
"I'm going to open the door." Shushen took a deep breath.
"I'll wait until the queen comes." The spearman shouted to stop it.
"I can't wait, and I've been looking forward to this moment for two years. Whether the queen comes or not, I have to open it, open it now. The god of books muttered.
I was supposed to remain silent and not interfere with the other party's actions, but suddenly my heart moved, and I immediately raised my hand and stopped the book god in a loud voice: "Hey, you can see the meaning of the runes and mandalas first, those must be full of deep meaning, not decorations." ”
When outsiders look at Tibetan and Sanskrit, they are too esoteric and obscure, and they often do not seek to understand them and have no patience to understand their meanings. However, in the face of this huge safe named "samsara", it would be too hasty to ignore those Sanskrit words again.
"What?" The book god turned his head and stared at me impatiently.
"It's not too late to open a safe if you understand the meaning of Sanskrit." I say.
Shushen shook his head: "This is the key, the only function of the key is to open the safe, do you need to think about it?" ”
I took two quick steps forward and waved my hand to stop him: "Don't act hastily, you'll kill everyone." ”
Before the god of books could defend himself, I leaped forward, snatched the key, and pushed him aside.
The temperature of this key is extremely low, which is in line with the material characteristics of the legendary "Ugin Dark Iron".
I looked down at the mandala on the key, and every line converged on the tip of the key, in an open form, not completely closed. When I look at the mandala around the keyhole, there are also countless lines and gaps.
"The key and the mandala on the keyhole correspond one-to-one, and when the mandala line is closed, the key will work, it must be like this, it must be like this-" I had just figured this out when my shoulder socket suddenly ached.
It turned out that after the god of books fell to the ground, he suddenly pulled out* and shot me twice in the shoulder socket.
My blood was spilled in rows, all on the keys.
For a moment, my mood suddenly floated and could no longer be suppressed, as if I had been caught by a huge magnet.
"Key...... Sound...... Musical sound ...... Chanting sound...... It's in that keyhole, it's in that safe...... Open the door, open the door, open the door......" My ears, brain, heart, and whole body were ordered by the word "open the door", and I couldn't help myself, and walked forward step by step.
The wound in the shoulder socket was very small, but the blood gushed out extremely fast, instantly staining the key red.
In my eyes, the blood did not flow from a high place, but turned into a swirling red blood mist, slowly floating in the air.
