The two boarded a rusty elevator under the watchful eyes of several guards wearing black sunglasses, restraining their life magnetic fields, and disguised as ordinary employees.

Surprisingly, the elevator did not go up, but went straight underground.

There was a sound of "clang, clang" in his ears, the elevator trembled slightly, this journey seemed to be endless, Meng Chao estimated that they were at least 100 meters underground.

The door opened, and outside the elevator was a dark path that winded.

Judging by the mottled walls on both sides of the corridor, this is part of the intricate labyrinthine underground defenses that have been entrenched beneath the Dragon City since the Earth era.

The original design intention is to resist the invasion of nuclear weapons, so that some lucky people can stay inside for decades or even hundreds of years, and wait for the dust to settle outside before going out.

Everywhere there is a rough, hard, cold militarized color.

Under the leadership of Lu Siya, the two passed through three gates with a thickness of more than half a meter, and the front finally brightened.

The copper walls on both sides of the corridor have been replaced by tempered glass.

Through the glass, you can see that inside are the laboratories where the monsters are kept.

The first laboratory is arranged as a slowly rotating three-dimensional maze, and a little mouse with a snow-white body is drilling through the maze.

The labyrinth is quite complex.

Even humans may not be able to find a way out.

There are also researchers who control the bifurcation of the maze and will randomly open and close the partitions in the maze to change the shape of the maze.

But the guinea pig can keep every path firmly in mind, and every time he does not hesitate to choose the right path, reach the end and enjoy the food.

The second lab was filled with a pale blue liquid.

Floating inside is an octopus that is constantly changing like a chameleon.

It's doing Sudoku.

Meng Chao blinked and realized that he was not mistaken.

The octopus did play Sudoku intently on a large whiteboard with a marker pen that could be used underwater.

The third laboratory houses a monster that appears to be a sloth and an anteater.

It seemed lazily curled up in a corner, purring in a muffled voice.

Meng Chao listened attentively and recognized that it was not snoring, but chanting in a strange tone: "The bright moonlight in front of the bed, suspected to be frost on the ground, raise your head to look at the bright moon, and bow your head to think of your hometown." ”

Meng Chao looked at Lu Siya in surprise.

"It's just parroting."

Lu Siya explained, "It doesn't really understand the meaning of the poem, it's just a simple stimulation of nerve current, and then again, imitation is also an important means of learning, who knows if it will have a flash of inspiration and perceive the beauty of poetry after a steady stream of multiple stimuli?" ”

There are no monsters in the fourth lab.

But there was a lonely human being, looking at Meng Chao with a melancholy expression.

Meng Chao was about to ask Lu Siya what was going on and why she was keeping a human here.

Suddenly, I felt that the facial features of this "human" were a little weird, and the eyebrows and eyes were very stiff, as if he was wearing a human skin mask.

And this mask simulates Meng Chao's own appearance.

At this moment, the "human" suddenly blinked, became transparent, and the whole person collapsed, turning into a round pulp.

Trembling, slimy, and like an oversized jelly.

Meng Chao saw it.

The people imprisoned here are not ordinary monsters.

Perhaps, their combat power is far inferior to the Hellbeast and the Doomsday Beast.

But he has superior intelligence or all kinds of strange abilities.

Meng Chao was in an office at the end of the corridor and saw Ye Xiaoxing again.

The office, which was not very spacious, was filled with materials that had been dusty for many years, like a warehouse that had just been hit by a hurricane.

Ye Xiaoxing curled up in the pile of old papers, still wearing two sleeves, and he couldn't see the strong aura of half a point in the fierce battle with the ultimate sandworm, but like an old accountant who didn't listen to anything outside the window.

"Meng Chao, let's meet again."

Ye Xiaoxing closed a notebook that recorded the dense information of monsters, took off his sleeves, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "First of all, I have good news for you, we strongly support the 'Super Star Resources' to take over the remaining business, technology and personnel of the 'Lingchuang Biology'."

"Along the way, Siya should have told you that we don't want this matter to expand indefinitely and lead to a new round of internal friction between the Morphic Modulation Sect and the Rune Mechanic Sect.

"More importantly, your fierce battles under the Raging Waves, and your perseverance in tracking down the murder of Sega Heaven's pet beasts, have convinced us that you are a loyal warrior who fought for Dragon City and human civilization.

"It's a pity that the outbreak of the Red Glowing Jade Vein has wiped out most of the traces of the fierce battle between you, Siya and Qin Hu underground, and the White Ghost case is still in the stage of secret investigation, so we can't reveal the full truth to all the citizens and give you the glory you deserve.

"But we will never let the heroes suffer, and we are more happy to see that a company like 'Super Star Resources', which is in the hands of heroes, can become bigger and stronger, and become the mainstay of defending Dragon City.

"As for the cooperation between the two sides, who is in charge and who is secondary, including the question of whether you are worried that you have no business talent, and you have to be busy with cultivation and fighting, will you be opposed by the 'Spirit Creation Creatures', such worries are not necessary, there is a strange beast investigation bureau to escort you, I believe that Xie Xiaolei, a smart person who has already made a mistake once and has a handle in our hands, will definitely not kill himself."

Meng Chao's mind was spinning.

Knowing that whether it was the investigation of the White Ghost or Gao Ye, it was inseparable from his own party, the Alien Beast Investigation Bureau simply sent the "Spirit Creation Creature" to his mouth as a big cake, so that he could eat his mouth full of oil, and he could also do his best in the investigation.

In the fragments of Meng Chao's past life memories.

The Beast Investigation Bureau is not too big now.

But it will soon explode dramatically, becoming a powerful institution capable of competing with the tribunals, and in some areas, even covering the sky with one hand.

can tie a chariot of interests to such a golden thigh, Meng Chao can't ask for it.

nodded at the moment, and said briskly: "Thank you, Director Ye." ”

Ye Xiaoxing waved his hand and said with a smile: "You are not an official member of the Alien Beast Investigation Bureau, so you don't need to call me any 'director', that's the case, for the case of Bai Ghost and Gao Ye, the Alien Beast Investigation Bureau has set up a temporary team, and also invited some experts and strong people in the society to study, for the time being, I am in charge, you can call me 'Old Ye', or you can call me 'Team Leader Ye'."

"To be honest, classmate Meng Chao, you really have a problem for me, you know, originally you had to undergo at least half a year of intensive training in the Alien Beast Investigation Bureau, and only after passing many tests can you be qualified to go deep here.

"It's just that you have close contact with Lin Chuan, White Ghost and Gao Ye, and even after Gao Ye became 'Dr. Sandworm', he sent you the experiment log, and he couldn't let you participate.

"I believe in your loyalty to Dragon City, but I still want to remind you that what you will come into contact with next is the highest level of core secrets, including countless dusty past events sealed in the dark ages, any of which may threaten the safety of Dragon City, and even cause countless innocent deaths.

"So, you can fail, you can quit, and you can even oppose us with the most fierce opinions, but you can't easily leak secrets, accept?"

"Of course."

Meng Chao said, "I know the severity, and I will never leak secrets easily." ”

After all, looking at the entire Dragon City, who else has more secrets than him?

"Okay, then let me introduce the Alien Beast Investigation Bureau first, I believe you already know from Siya that we are an agency that has just been established and specializes in dealing with high-IQ monsters, but you must also have a lot of questions, within the scope of authority, I will answer them one by one."

Ye Xiaoxing paused and said, "Classmate Meng Chao, do you think the monster war will end like this?" ”

Meng Chao was slightly stunned, and wanted to laugh in his heart.

This question is not easy for anyone, even the most far-sighted strategic experts, to answer.

But he is the only one who knows the correct answer.

"No, it won't."

Meng Chao shook his head slowly and said, "Although through the offensive on the northern front, we have eliminated the Doomsday Beasts entrenched in the Raging Waves Mountain Range, and have raised the combat effectiveness of a large number of transcendents to a higher level, the monsters in all directions around Dragon City are probably unable to launch a large-scale attack on us.

"But I don't think Dragon City can sit back and wait for the final victory to fall from the sky."

Ye Xiaoxing glanced at Lu Siya with some surprise, he didn't expect Meng Chao to be so calm, and couldn't help but wonder: "How can you see it?" ”

Meng Chao smiled slightly and said, "It's very simple, if the monster war can be won so easily, there is no need to set up a 'Strange Beast Investigation Bureau'."

"I just walked along the way, and I saw a lot of strange beasts, their combat power is mediocre, and even inferior to nightmare beasts, but they have superior intelligence and the ability to disguise themselves as humans.

"I think so, monsters without strict social organization are destined not to be the opponents of the human steel torrent on the frontal battlefield, after all, their size cannot expand indefinitely, no matter how strong their flesh and blood are, they can't resist the blow of the 'Longwei Cannon'.

"But Dragon City's small space, dense population, and high-rise buildings make it a very vulnerable target, and it is extremely vulnerable to unrestricted terrorist attacks.

"If there is a monster that has intelligence comparable to that of humans, and can deeply understand the strengths and weaknesses of human civilization, and can control or simulate humans, it can sneak around us without knowing it, detonate bombs, create earthquakes, assassinate important officials and experts, and do everything to disrupt the order of Dragon City.

"This method of warfare may not be able to accomplish a single battle, but it can create chaos and panic to the greatest extent, leaving Dragon City in a state of continuous blood loss.

"And, as long as it's smart enough to lurk in places like the Golden Tooth's Nest, using thousands of innocent citizens as shields and hostages, it's hard for us to find it, and even if we can pinpoint it, the cost of capturing or destroying it is prohibitively high.

"As long as there are enough of these high-IQ monsters, even if we can win the monster war in the end, I am afraid that we will kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred, and it will be difficult to embark on the journey of colonizing the other world in the best state.

"In a word, the monster war has entered the second half, and we are facing a new form of war, and if we are not careful, there is still a risk of losing the whole game!"
