Chapter 471: The Reading Club was formed
Northstate, a small town covered in snow and ice.
The weather is bitterly cold, with snow falling for eight months of the year, and although it is only the end of November, the students are already on early holidays, and the town's only secondary school, which is also the tallest building in the town, is empty.
It was just a small town with a total population of less than 1,000, and I don't know why it was necessary to build a five-story school building.
It was just five o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun seemed to be hiding from the cold, and it couldn't wait to go down the mountain.
The teaching building was empty, the corridors were pitch black, because there were not many students, so the actual teaching building was only used for three floors, and the stairs on the fourth and fifth floors were locked by iron doors, and no students were allowed to enter.
The most mysterious part of the entire school building is the classrooms on the fifth floor, which were originally planned to be used as a student video room.
All the windows of the classroom were covered by thick black curtains, so that no light could be seen inside, and in the same way, what was going on inside could never be known from the outside.
The size of the other two classrooms was the size of the other two classrooms, and in the center of the empty room was an oval-shaped solid wood conference table, and on the side of the table, forty-eight chairs were neatly placed in turn, each with a number from one to twenty-eight engraved on the back.
Suddenly, a circle of lights lit up on the dark classroom wall, and in the next moment, those empty chairs were already full of people, only the number one seat was still empty.
They were all blurry shadows, unable to see their faces or even distinguish their shapes.
The source of the light is a strange-looking projector hanging from the ceiling.
"It's the January meeting again, and the last meeting is like yesterday, and time flies."
"After all, it's all old bones, but there is still a long time to come."
"That's right, hahahaha."
Everyone's voices are specially processed mechanical and electronic sounds, not to mention men and women, and even the speed of speech has been adjusted, and no one can know each other's situation.
"A group of old immortals, needless to say, this kind of unnutritious words, I haven't woken up yet, if you have a fart, let it go."
Ten's voice was processed and sounded slow, but anyone could hear his displeasure.
The rest of the group all looked at this side, but no one cared about Ta's rudeness.
After the silence, everyone got to business.
The first thing to discuss is the big event that happened just yesterday.
No. 25: "The red pillar of light in Xizhou yesterday, you must have learned about it through various channels, right?" ”
Seven: "I haven't heard anything else, though, so I guess the matter has been put to rest." ”
Forty-six: "It seems that our plan for half a year has not been successful. ”
Eighteenth: "It's a pity that no envoy came to the meeting today, otherwise we would have known the details." ”
Six: "I don't know if the ceremony is over." ”
Eight: "That red ray means that the ritual has been successful, but the old god doesn't seem to have fully descended, so it was stopped." ”
Thirty-Three: "Originally, the old god was unlikely to have much of an impact, as long as it came, the Foundation and the Superman Association would definitely react immediately." I was more informed that the Hoover Dam had collapsed and the polluted water was flowing into the river system in the lower half of the West Continent, so it could not be said that the mission had failed. ”
Seven: "Anyway, the city of Ezeira will not exist, I remember when I was younger, I went around, in a blink of an eye, how many years have passed, it's a pity." ”
Number 46: "What's so sentimental, it's just a city, it's a big deal to build one, and some untouchables will die, and it won't affect us." ”
Number 10: "Tut-tut, all of them are secretive, with your power, can't you inquire about this little thing?" Shrunken-headed turtle.
The coalition government has begun to control the tap water system in the lower reaches of Xizhou, and the original goal has long been successfully accomplished, and a group of old immortals are still testing and probing, which is ridiculous. ”
Fortunately, it was a mechanical and electronic sound, otherwise the original sound of No. 10 would have been even more underwhelming.
Twenty-Eight: "Ten, don't go too far. ”
Thirty-one: "Okay, okay, everyone's time is precious, is it here to quarrel?" ”
There were forty-seven people in the room, but most people were used to keeping silent.
Seeing that the quarrel couldn't be aroused, the tenth stopped deliberately provoking and said, "Speaking of which, I recently found an interesting place, I don't know if any of you are interested. ”
The conference room was quiet, and no one answered Ta's words.
Ten was bored with himself, and continued: "There is a very hidden town near Dallas City, the capital of Maryland, West Continent, and I heard that the inhabitants of it are all descendants of a certain nobleman in the original island country. ”
"Island Country?"
Everyone was talking to each other, obviously relatively unfamiliar with it.
Ten scoffed, "Your intelligence is so backward that you don't even know about the Pirate Nation. ”
In fact, among the people present, there must be someone who knows, but this place is relatively special, if anyone is the first to speak, they will almost indicate the area where they are located, which is a big taboo for them, and they must not let others have any information about themselves, even if it is just a general area.
The tenth also understands this, so he is deliberately using the agitation method to catch the bait.
But obviously, all the people present are human spirits, and no one will fall into such a simple trap.
The crowd was silent for two minutes.
Thirty-one: "Isn't the messenger coming today?" ”
Ten: "Who knows, they usually shrink deeper than you old turtles." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a bald monk wearing a red robe appeared in the position of No. 1.
The monk looked kindly, folded his hands, and nodded to everyone.
No one knows how he came here, and the strength of the messenger is unfathomable.
"About yesterday......"
The monk briefly recounted the situation at Hoover Dam.
"I don't have anything important to do recently, I hope you can settle down, and in addition, the medicine that inhibits green rot this month is about to be delivered to Weiwei, so pay attention to confidentiality measures."
After saying that, the monk disappeared silently, just as he had come.
As soon as the monk left, the tenth immediately began to yawn: "Do you have anything else to force?" ”
No one spoke.
"So."
The 31st stood up and concluded: "This meeting is over. See you next month, members of the Immortal Society. ”
