Wei Lingdong and his entourage had no idea that just over two hours after they left, such a strange and astonishing scene had occurred in the Okinawa Trough.

When the whale hit the submarine into the mouth of the large triangle, because of the uneven force, the strong water pressure completely squeezed the potted hull, and the remaining air inside was still leaking out from time to time.

Bizarrely, the whale seems to attack only the middle and front ends of the submarine, and the high-efficiency lithium battery pack and small nuclear reactor in the tail are relatively well preserved, and the damage is almost entirely concentrated in the front half.

In a flash of electric sparks, the submarine gradually disappeared into the mouth of the spectacularly large deep-sea triangle.

Inside the cave, there seemed to be a long sigh: "It's really comfortable, super alloy plates, nuclear warheads, and high-efficiency lithium batteries, but in this way, time seems to be 。。。。。。 ”

......

At noon on May 3, Celestial Empire time.

Dublin, the capital of the Republic of Ireland, roars endlessly on the runway of the international airport in the north, and a series of modified military transport planes begin to arrive one after another.

These are the special planes for the teams from all over the world participating in the first Extraordinary Ability Competition.

Among them, the Celestial Empire, country M and Russia have the most modified military aircraft, because of the influence of foreign beasts, especially mutant birds, small countries on all continents do not have the ability to reach Ireland. At the request of the United Nations Foreign Committee, five large transport planes were requisitioned from each of the three most powerful military powers on the planet, and the assembly point was set up to transport the contestants from nearby small countries to Dublin in batches. According to the statistics of the Heterodox Commission, among the more than 190 sovereign countries, a total of 145 countries have decided to participate in the competition, and the vast majority of the nearly 50 countries have decided to form joint teams with neighboring countries through private negotiations. So, in fact, there are hardly any sovereign states absent from this dangerous event.

Dublin is located in the middle of the eastern part of the island of Ireland, across the Irish Sea from the island of England. The eastern suburbs of Dublin are only about 100 kilometres away from the nearest part of the island of England. The closest distance between the two islands is in the north, only 20 kilometers apart! However, it is the territory of the six counties of Northern Ireland and is part of the British Empire.

In a small building north of Belfast Castle, the Shaftesbury family welcomes several mysterious guests.

At the head of the group is a strong white man in his early two meters, with a full beard and messy hair that seems to have not been washed for a long time, and even makes people wonder if there are birds nesting on it! His eyes are a little weird, the one on the left is black, the one on the right is like a cataract, the pupils are gray, only the center is faintly light gray.

"Dear Leonid the Great, welcome to the Shaftesbury family." Patriarch Anthony took off his hat and bent down to make a traditional aristocratic salute to the strong man.

"Hello Anthony, glad we finally met!" Leony's voice was slightly hoarse, and his Russian English seemed rather lame, but he seemed to have no intention of using a simultaneous interpreter.

Anthony hurriedly and carefully closed the intelligent interpreter at the neckline, and he complimented with a flattering smile on his face: "It's surprising that the emperor speaks English so fluently." ”

The corner of the secretary-general's eyes twitched slightly, and he quickly lowered his head.

"In order to ensure that the plan can go smoothly, I also brought a few friends this time." As he spoke, he pointed to the figure behind him shrouded in a huge cloak, "In order for them to come, I had the military plane cross the entire Russian border from east to west, and then diverted to the busy port of Murmansk, using our state-of-the-art high-speed cruiser to get here." ”

"It's a big deal for you and your guests." Anthony snorted repeatedly, "In order for your ship to arrive safely, I have also put a lot of effort into the navy. Of course! None of this is worth the amount of time you have precious! ”

"You're such a good talker, Anthony, and I like you a lot!" Leonid had to laugh. He beckoned behind him, "Mr. Someya, Mr. Aso, come and meet the mysterious head of the Shaftesbury family, Patriarch Anthony!" ”

As soon as the words fell, two figures in wide hoodies behind him, one fat and one thin, one tall and one short, took a few steps forward, and then raised their heads, and two Asian faces appeared in the eyes of Anthony and others, however, the appearance of the tall and fat person was really flattering, even with Anthony's concentration, his eyelids still jumped slightly, and his smile was a little stiff.

These two Asians are, of course, Mai Someya, who has already met Leonid in Sakhalin, and his uncle Jiro Aso.

However, Mai Someya's newly subdued mount, the terrifying Yata-wu mutated from soap carving, was gone.

"Hello, Patriarch Anthony." Jiro Aso stretched out his hand and shook it with Anthony. Mai Someya grinned, laughing so hard that the backs of everyone on the other side were chilling.

"Welcome to Belfast, the great leader of Amaterasu's light! Our family has prepared gifts for Someya-kun and Leonid the Great. Anthony motioned to the butler beside him to lead the way, and then said with a smile, "The two of you have come from afar, and you have worked hard all the way, please enjoy our gifts first, and then talk about the next step?" ”

Mai Someya and Leoni looked at each other, nodded and said in unison, "Then according to Patriarch Antony's wishes." ”

The steward was terrified and led the two beast-like beings to the basement, where there were two rooms sealed with lead plates, and inside were the greeting gifts prepared by the Shaftesbury family for the two of them, five kilograms of nuclear fuel each! And about ten meters next to Mai Someya's room, there was another closed compartment, and the sound of a child crying could be faintly heard inside.

......

When Wei Lingdong returned to the Heavenly Group Base in Dragon City, the list of participants in the competition had already been prepared:

There are three people each from the four departments of spirit, body, space, and element, a total of twelve people, plus him as the captain, a total of thirteen official team members, and one substitute from each of the four departments, forming a seventeen-person roster for the competition. In addition to the eight team leaders named after the gossip names, there are also Crow Valley Daoren, Chang Wei, and six team members selected from the Heavenly Group.

"General, there's a letter of inquiry from the headquarters of the Foreign Affairs Committee, asking when we will leave?" The secretary ran over to report.

"What are they doing in such a hurry? Didn't the tournament start on the 10th? Wei Lingdong frowned slightly, "Reply to them, we will arrive on the 7th at the latest." ”

"Because..." The secretary hesitated for a moment, but plucked up the courage to say, "Because it involves the temporary lottery of the organizing committee and the formation of the competition safety picket team, the foreign committee recommends that we arrive at the latest on the 5th, that is, the day after tomorrow." Otherwise, we are likely to be excluded from the picket list. ”

Wei Lingdong's face was cold: "Didn't the pickets say that they would be appointed by our five permanent members of the United Nations by default?" Why did you change your hexagram again? ”

"It was the Izumo Raiders of Country R and the Eye of Reincarnation of India who took the lead in the strong protest, and dozens of sovereign countries seconded it! The committee had to meet urgently, at which it was decided that the pickets would be formed by arriving before 8 p.m. London time on May 5 and voting on the spot. Our time was about the early morning of the 6th. Since you can't be contacted before, it's not easy for the people at the base to make their own decisions. So, what do you mean ... The secretary looked at Wei Lingdong with an inquiring look.

"When is it time for the P5 to look at their eyes?" Wei Lingdong was very puzzled.

"India's official Anomalous Squad, the leader of the Eye of Reincarnation, is called Rahal, and he took the initiative to inform the management of the Anomalies that a week ago, he had completed his third awakening, and the number of abilities had reached 5! Moreover, he claims to have broken through the 3S level of his ability and reached the Mendelian level! There was a hint of amazement in the secretary's words.

"Oh? No wonder! Wei Lingdong's heart moved when he heard this, and he sneered, "Do you think that if you are the first person in the world to awaken three times, you can treat yourself as a humanoid nuclear weapon?" Well, you tell them, we'll be in Ireland on the 5th. ”

"Okay, General!" The secretary nodded and left.

"What do you think about this?" Wei Lingdong turned his head to Wang Fen.

"What else can you see, go to the scene and see it." Wang Fenjiao smiled, "However, I'm afraid that he won't be able to stand the blow when the time comes." ”
