Chapter 476: The Workplace Environment in the New Era

"Loki?" The old man was stunned when he heard this, "Is Loki here too?" When. ”

The blank look on his face didn't seem fake, meaning that he hadn't seen Loki in the last moment, at least.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Loki hasn't been here, considering the latter's transformation ability, he can easily touch the island with the old man on his back if he turns into a bird or an insect or something, and it is even possible to directly find the place where Jörmungård is sleeping.

It's just that in this way, Zhang Heng and Fan Meinan's original plan will fall through, and there is no way to know Loki's whereabouts from the old man.

In fact, although it was β to lure the three of them to this abandoned subway line this time, Zhang Heng could still detect Loki's shadow from behind this incident, but Zhang Heng didn't quite understand what Loki's purpose was.

Is the other party targeting him? Because Fan Meinan couldn't do anything to him, he asked β to lure him here, wanting to rely on the black python on the island to kill him? If that's the case, maybe Loki is underestimating him a little too much, or maybe Loki just wants to kill the black python with his hand, so that he can make a feud with Jörmungad?

At the moment, this conclusion seems to be the most likely.

But the monster that appeared in the twilight of the gods as a god itself has a lot of enemies, and none of the gods of Asgard alone don't want to kill it, if it weren't for Zhang Heng's bad luck and happened to appear in its lair, Jörmungård probably didn't have the heart to find Zhang Heng for revenge.

When he was fighting with the black python, Zhang Heng once suspected that when he eliminated the black python, Jörmungad would come in some way, but now the old man's words overturned this possibility.

In this way, Zhang Heng couldn't see through what Loki wanted to do this time, because the latter's plan seemed to be a bit anticlimactic now, with heavy thunder and little rain.

But then Zhang Heng's expression moved, as if he had thought of something again, and asked the old man, "Was there any other person on the island just now?" ”

The old man's expression changed slightly, and he remembered the confession of the woman of unknown origin, and wanted to deny it on the spot, but he knew that his first reaction must have been seen by Zhang Heng, and if he deny it now, he would be suspected of wanting to cover it up, so he was a little embarrassed, and he didn't know what to say, so he could only be silent in the end.

“…………”

In fact, the old man's heart is even more confused than Zhang Heng now, he can't figure out what the relationship between the woman of unknown origin and Zhang Heng is, according to the former, Zhang Heng is her boss, and this time she came to solve the trouble for the boss, but she has been busy for so long, it seems that she doesn't want the boss to know her existence, and before leaving, she specially told the old man not to tell Zhang Heng about her going to the island.

The old man can only sigh that he has really stayed on the island for too long, and he can no longer adapt to the complicated workplace environment of the new era.

Fortunately, Zhang Heng didn't ask any more, he knew that he couldn't get an answer from the old man, so he closed his eyes and rested for about half a minute, and then he jumped off the snake corpse and got on the small wooden boat.

The old man couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, this is the sorrow of a strategist-type person, although he is the brain of Jörmungadr in the outside world, and is responsible for taking care of everything outside while Jörmungader is sleeping, but after the death of the black python, he can't beat anyone now, neither offend the woman of unknown origin, nor offend Zhang Heng in front of him, so he can only walk on thin ice between the two.

After Zhang Heng got on the boat, he hurriedly rowed the wooden boat to the side of the submarine tunnel connected to the waterhole, and then took out two sets of old-fashioned scuba devices from the boat, and handed one of them to Zhang Heng, but the latter waved his hand and refused.

"I don't need it."

The old man was not too strange, after all, since Zhang Heng could come from here, of course he could go back from here, and not long ago, the other party had just fought with Ah Hei in the sea for more than forty minutes, and Ah Hei once dived to the bottom of the sea, but he still couldn't escape.

So the old man put on his own diving equipment later, his movements seemed a little rusty, and he even studied the use of the respirator, and at the same time did not forget to explain to Zhang Heng, "This pit is only used by Ah Hei to feed the snakes, as for the believers have other passages to enter and exit the island, I didn't expect that there would be people here who could come out, so at the beginning, I thought you were a believer who came to the island." ”

Zhang Heng nodded, didn't say anything, took his travel bag, and followed behind the old man.

Then the two of them went into the underwater tunnel together, and when they came, there was a lot of turbulence in this submarine tunnel, but the general flow direction was from the waterhole to the sea, Zhang Heng originally thought that it would be more laborious to go back, and he was even ready to use his ability to control the water flow to send the two back.

But I didn't expect that after swimming less than half a meter after entering it, the direction of those turbulent currents magically changed, from the original flow from the inside to the outside to the outside to the inside, and it didn't take long for the two to be sent back to the snake head carved in the stone.

As soon as he rose to the pool, Zhang Heng heard Ma Lu's shout, and there was a bit of eagerness in his voice.

"What's wrong?" After Zhang Heng climbed up the hole, he asked Ma Longdao, who was lying at the entrance of the cave, who looked like an ant on a hot pot at this moment, and said anxiously when he saw Zhang Heng.

"Miss Fan is gone! Soon after you went down, Miss Fan told me that she didn't want to sit here and wait, and wanted to see if she could find anything that could help you, and I wanted to help, so she told me to let me find a way to make a rope, and then we separated, I was on the second floor, and she was on the first floor...... After about twenty minutes, I went down to look for her, only to find her missing on the first floor, and I shouted but no one answered. ”

Ma Lu's first words made Zhang Heng's heart sink, and he turned his head and asked the old man who was following behind, "Is there anything else here?" ”

As a result, the old man shook his head when he heard this, "No, this subway line has been closed for decades, no one has ever come in, we use this place to raise snakes, in fact, those snakes usually stay in the tunnel quietly, and only crawl out when they eat, they are very well-behaved." ”

However, Zhang Heng knew that no one had come in here, and the snakes in the tunnel had basically been cleaned up by him before, and the rest couldn't make any waves, so Fan Meinan's disappearance was most likely unrelated to the snakes, but Zhang Heng didn't forget that Loki's agent β had entered here one step ahead of them, and he didn't see β leave in the surveillance video he retrieved before, so the latter is very likely to be here.

If there is anyone who is most likely to attack Fan Meinan, it must be β.
