Chapter 458: Hive Base
Shen Mo stared at McConaughey rather unexpectedly.
After making sure that there was no murderous aura in the other party's eyes, he continued to talk along with the other party's words.
"Kidd's strength is very strong, if it weren't for his insanity, I wouldn't have been able to defeat him, and the luck component of this battle is a big percentage."
"Oh? Really? McConaughey glanced at Emily, who nodded slightly, echoing the silence.
"Even so, Mr. Shen's power is extraordinary, I wonder if he is interested in joining our Steinmetz family?"
Silence: "ยทยทยท"
He knew that McConaughey would have a great chance of recruiting him, but he didn't expect that the first time the two met, McConaughey extended an olive branch to himself.
Silence has long been prepared for this.
"Mr. McConaughey, my knowledge of your family is limited to Miss Emily and Kidd, and it will be difficult for me to make a rational decision if you let me join now!"
"Haha!" McConaughey laughed, "The power of our Steinmetz family will definitely not let you down, since Mr. Shen has come, let Emily take you to get to know each other, I believe that Mr. Shen is a smart person who knows how to choose." โ
Shen Mo smiled without saying a word, and with McConaughey's words, Shen Mo's hope of seeing Celia was two percent greater.
After a moment's silence, Shen continued silently.
"Mr. McConaughey, although I am not a capable person, I know a lot about the Apocalypse Stone, and Miss Emily should have mentioned this to you..."
Indeed, the attribute problem of the Apocalypse Stone is the information that Shen Mo revealed to Emily, which avoids a lot of trouble and misunderstandings in their research.
McConaughey nodded, understanding the silence's intentions, "Then let Emily take you to the Apocalypse Stone's lab." โ
"Father..." Emily was about to say something, but was interrupted by McConaughey.
"Okay, that's all for now, I still have something to do, so I won't bother you young people. Emily, Mr. Shen, they'll be entertained by you. โ
After McConaughey finished speaking, he drove away surrounded by the butler, leaving Shen Mo and the others in the Steinmetz family.
Shen Mo glanced at Emily rather unexpectedly, "What? Miss Emily doesn't want me to see the Apocalypse Stone's lab? Could it be that there is no light there? โ
"The laboratory has always welcomed Mr. Shen's arrival, but there was an explosion there just now, and you need to clean it up, so it's better to let Xin Yingwang take you to the courtyard first, and I will deal with the situation over there, and then I will go ahead of the past." How is it? โ
"Whatever you want!"
Emily also anointed her feet with oil and disappeared from silent sight.
The penguin muttered dissatisfiedly, "Hey, we're here to visit, and now even the owner is gone, this is the hospitality of the Steinmetz family?" โ
"Penguin, didn't Emily already say that? There's something in the lab that she needs to deal with. Xinyingwang eased out of her sisterhood with Emily.
"Hehe, such a boring excuse, who would believe it, I see, she should be hiding the shady things, and when she comes back, all we can see is what she lets us see."
The penguin is a puppet with the ability to think silently, and what he says is exactly what silent thinks.
Moreover, Shen Mo also knew that Emily must be hiding Celia on this trip, and she didn't want others to know about Celia's existence.
On the surface, Shen Mo pretended to be willing to follow Xinying Wang around the garden, but in fact, he spread his heart and eyes and followed Emily.
He wanted to see if everything was as he expected.
After Emily left, she walked straight along the green grass gravel path on both sides, through several corridors, and finally stopped under a lighthouse.
This small lighthouse was used in ancient times to detect enemy situations and transmit signals, but now it has been converted into an entrance to a laboratory.
I saw Emily press a string of passwords on the lighthouse code door, and after face recognition, she entered the lighthouse.
When Shen Mo wanted to follow in, he found that his mind and eye power could not penetrate into the lighthouse, as if something was blocking Shen Mo's investigation.
The power of the mind and eye can't enter the lighthouse? This surprised Shen Mo, but from another point of view, Celia must have been trapped inside the lighthouse... Or rather, under the lighthouse!
The power of Silence's mind and eyes spread out again, and it went straight into the ground, and soon the outline of the base hidden underground gradually appeared in Silence's mind, and the lighthouse was really just a cover, and the real laboratory had been hidden underground.
The laboratory is like an upside-down beehive, the further down the space becomes, the smaller the space, although the silence cannot probe the situation inside, but he knows that the laboratory has four floors.
The first floor is about the size of a football field, the second floor is small, the third floor is small, and the last floor is only about 20 square meters in size.
In the eyes of silence, the most important thing must be hidden in the lowest layer, and the fourth layer must be prepared for Celia.
Airplanes! Silent retracted his mind's eye, as long as Emily didn't take Celia out of the lab, he didn't worry about not getting Celia.
Xin Yingwang took Shen Mo and others on a tour of the Steinmetz family, and it was hard to imagine that in a place like Washington, D.C., a private person could have such a mansion.
"The ancestors of the Steinmetz family were among the first to come to America, and Emily's great-great-grandfather was the leader of the Battle of Brandensburg. As a result, it has always been the domain of the Steinmetz family. โ
Shen Mo nodded, for Emily's family history, he was all a little story to kill time.
Xin Yingwang saw Shen Mo's carelessness, and she kindly reminded, "Shen Mo, don't underestimate McConaughey, he is not a simple person. โ
Shen Mo naturally knows that a man who can transfer other people's bodies to his own son can be an ordinary person?
In Silence's view, what McConaughey was trying to do was just Silence's ability. With McConaughey's methods, he could not get even the slightest bit of strength from silence by all means.
Because, no one can get the golden finger, even if it is silent.
After waiting in the garden for a long time, Emily finally returned.
"Mr. Shen, everything is arranged, please come with me!"
Penguin and the others also wanted to follow, but were stopped by Emily, "Mr. Shen is only allowed to enter the laboratory, you can wait here!" โ
Xinyingwang had no choice but to continue to impulse her owner and take care of the penguins and others.
Meanwhile, Silence followed behind Emily and came to the lighthouse again, and after verifying her identity, the latter motioned for Silence to follow her.
"The guards here are very strict, and if someone trespasses, it is very likely to trigger the base's self-exposure procedure."
Silence: "ยทยทยท"
It's too much for someone else to trespass and self-destruct!
"Of course, that's just the worst-case scenario, there are security teams in the laboratory, all of them are capable people who have taken the Apocalypse Elixir, and many crises have been solved by them."
"Why are you telling me this?"
"Nothing! I just want to tell Mr. Shen that the security level of our laboratory is very high! โ
Silent face hehe(โ_โ)
Emily said all this, isn't she just warning Shen Mo not to act rashly?!
With her ability to be silent, Emily worries that silence will take away the research results of the lab, which is understandable, and it is normal to behave like this.
Shen Mo didn't care, he cared when he would see Celia, and what did the perfect soul of the bard have to do with the Steinmetz family's apocalyptic elixir?
Bite! The elevator to the underground base stalled, and the gray elevator doors slowly opened.
"Mr. Shen, we're here."
