The surrounding lifeboats were lit up one after another, and some people shouted in the dark night, "There is a boat in the distance", Lin Fan looked at the beam of light, and found that there was indeed a boat with a flashing light on the dark sea in the distance, "There is a boat, there is really a boat!" "Yay!! We are saved! Xue Panru and others in the front row shouted excitedly.

"Antelope wake up~~ Look, there's a ship coming to save us!!" Lin Fan couldn't wait to wake up the antelope beside him, the antelope rubbed her eyes and woke up from his shoulder, and when she saw the shadow of the boat in the distance, she also cheered up and said, "Great~Lin Fanjun~~"

The ship in the distance saw the movement of the boats, and began to respond to the crowd with a light that went on and off, and after a while, the ship sailed near the boat, and its outline gradually became clear in the light, the ship was huge and long, and there were groups of containers on the front and middle of the hull, and everyone found that it was an ocean-going freighter.

The radio on the freighter sounded: "Who are you?" What happened!? ”

Someone in the group responded with a loudspeaker: "We are the U.S. Navy, and the ship has encountered an accident at sea, so we ask for your support!" After confirming with the U.S. military commander in charge of the negotiations, the men on the freighter instructed the boats to sail to the sides of the ship, and the people on board began to lower the cables and rope ladders to take the people aboard.

Lin Fan and the others followed many American soldiers and sailors to board the freighter smoothly, and after going to the deck, Lin Fan found that there were many yellow-skinned and black-haired Asian seafarers on board, but they all spoke fluent English, and they didn't know which country they were.

The seamen in charge and the chief non-commissioned officer of the U.S. Army settled the people on the ship together, hundreds of people gathered on the deck, some were responsible for distributing food and water, some were responsible for setting up temporary tents on the deck, and some people brought electric heaters to warm everyone, Lin Fan and his party were arranged by the people on the ship, they were settled in an empty container in the center of the deck, the first mate and Chen Bo brought food and water, Lin Fan and Xue Panru brought medicine and a small electric heater, Ji Yutong and Wu Lingling helped the antelope bandage the wound, and everyone sat around the electric heater, Eating food began to rest in the container. After a busy day, hundreds of people settled on deck, and the ship gradually fell silent, except for the whispers of Suosuo.

"God bless us this time we were safe...... first mate sighed as he smoked a cigarette at the door of the container.

Xue Panru ate one piece of bread after another, and muttered in his mouth: "That (first mate), do you say that you (we) are destined to commit water or are cursed by something, swollen (how) when you go to sea, you either encounter a dwarf monster (sea monster) or a big lewd snake, it is really eight lifetimes of mold." ”

"Fatty, can you say something auspicious~!" Chen Bo and Wu Lingling chirped.

"Oh, if you don't die, there will be a blessing in the future~" Xue Panru immediately changed his words.

"You're a crow's mouth!"

"Brother~Sister~, I was wrong, okay~"

The first mate helped Xue Panru relieve the siege and said: "Okay, okay, Xiao Xue didn't mean it, who would have thought that these things were all encountered by us?" ”

"First mate, which country do you say this ship belongs to? Why so many Asians, and all speak English. Lin Fan asked.

"This is a freighter from Singapore, and I just asked a few seafarers on board about it, and they are going to Buenos Aires, Argentina."

"Are we going to Argentina now?"

"I don't know, they seem to have stopped the boat." The first mate looked out and said.

"Why did you stop?" Xue Panru asked.

"Maybe the route is going to change, so they have to discuss the route." The first mate replied.

"Where's the change?"

"Maybe I'm going to Antarctica." Ji Yutong said.

"Huh? Do you want to go back to that base?! I don't want to go back, I want to go home! Xue Panru shouted.

Go home...... Everyone was a little distracted when they heard these two words.

"I miss home so much, I miss my parents so much...... They haven't heard from me for so long, will they die of sadness......" Wu Lingling said with a crying voice, Lin Fan also misses his parents, he is better than others, at least his parents know that he is safe, and Lingling and their parents probably thought that they had been killed three months ago.

"Yutong, can we get the people on the ship to send us back?" Wu Lingling asked Ji Yutong on the side.

Ji Yutong shook his head and said, "Probably not...... We've been involved in Dr. Sid's actions so much, and he's not going to let us go back easily. ”

Wu Lingling couldn't stop tears falling from her cheeks as soon as she heard the two lines, "Hmph! That Yankee is so hateful! Chen Bo pinched the plastic bottle in his hand flat.

Everyone's mood was very low, and Lin Fan spoke: "Yutong, why don't we go talk to Dr. Sid and let everyone contact their families." ”

"Hmm......" Ji Yutong nodded.

"Will he say yes to you so easily?" First Officer.

"I'm not sure...... However, we helped him find the disappeared core area laboratory, and Lin Fan had close contact with the dragon and the mysterious person above it today, maybe he could use this as an opportunity to get some conditions for us. Ji Yutong said.

The first mate put down the cigarette in his hand and said a little moved: "Sister Yutong, if you can really convince him, then I owe you an adult favor, you don't know how much I want to report peace to my wife and children during this time~"

"First mate, don't say that, it's everyone's business, I should have fought for everyone earlier...... Do you know where Dr. Sid is now? Ji Yutong said.

"I just saw him leading his crew to the command room at the back of the ship, as if to talk to the captain of this freighter, and the place where the lights are lit is," the first mate pointed to a lighted tower outside the mouth of the box.

"Yutong, shall we go to Dr. Sid now?" Lin Fan didn't expect Ji Yutong to be in such a hurry.

"Well, he should have time now, too."

"Yutong, you must convince that Dr. Sid! We're counting on you! Wu Lingling, Xue Panru and Chen Bo looked at Ji Yutong and Lin Fan with hope.

"Let's give it a try, let's go, Lin Fan." Ji Yutong said to Lin Fan.

After speaking, Lin Fan and Ji Yutong got out of the container and went down to the deck, and the two walked along the aisle on one side to the tower at the back of the ship, a long rain shelter was temporarily built on the aisle of the deck, and many rescued American soldiers rested in the rain shelter, and the two tried to pass through it as quietly as possible, but many American soldiers in the canopy would discuss privately when they saw Lin Fan, because the scene of him and the antelope coming back from the sea by light today was really appalling.

In order to avoid the eyes of the people around him, Lin Fan followed behind Ji Yutong, and Ji Yutong was also very cooperative in front and deliberately staggered a little to help Lin Fan block some sight, this smart girl can always easily see through what others think.

Lin Fan remembered the unfinished conversation with her on the lifeboat just now, so he asked, "Yu Tong, what did you mean when you said on the boat just now, 'The others were not buried in the belly of the red dragon that night, but were brought somewhere'?" ”

Ji Yutong slowed down, and waited for Lin Fan to walk side by side with her before speaking: "Lin Fan, among the few weirdos you met on the giant dragon head today, is there anyone who is very similar to our missing classmate?" ”

Lin Fan said dumbly: "Why do you know!?" ”

"Today, after you and the antelope were sent back by the light cluster, I found that you had been staring at the dragon's head and lost your mind, even ignoring the injured antelope on the side...... So I guess you must have met someone up there. ”

Lin Fan nodded, he did look lost at that time, but Ji Yutong's observation power was too strong, and his state of mind at that time could be deduced from this detail alone.

"So...... Is it the two weirdos, or the goddess? Ji Yutong continued to ask.

Lin Fan hesitated for a moment and replied, "...... It's the goddess."

"Who is she like?"

“…… She is very similar to Li Jia. ”

"Didn't you say she was wearing a mask? So how did you recognize her. ”

"Because her body shape and feeling are very similar to Li Jia......" Lin Fan thought to himself that he couldn't say this kind of thing because the goddess pounced on her body and recognized it by smell, so he made up a reason.

"You can recognize her as Li Jia just by her body shape and feeling? …… Lin Fan, do you like Li Jia? ”

The secret in Lin Fan's heart was seen through at once, and the whole person was immediately embarrassed, and hurriedly denied: "Ah, where is the matter, Yutong, don't speculate, Li Jia and I are just an ordinary relationship, but we have been classmates for three years, so we are more impressed." ”

"I see~" Ji Yutong smiled and said casually: "If that goddess is very similar to Li Jia, it shows a possibility." ”

"What possibility?!"

"The man who was in the same boat with you at the time did not die, but was taken away by the red dragon."

"What?! You say the dragon took them away? So where were they taken!? ”

"They may have been taken under this sea, or they may have been somewhere in the world."

"Yutong, what are you talking about? I don't understand. Lin Fan hurriedly said, at this moment, he and Ji Yutong had already passed through the long canopy, and the dark and vast sea under the night appeared on the side of the ship.

Ji Yutong stared at the sea on one side and said, "Lin Fan, do you know the legend of Daxizhou?" ”

"Daxizhou?"

"Great Western Continent, also known as Atlantis, is said to be a country with a high degree of civilization development, it existed 10,000 years ago, and now we know the four ancient civilizations - ancient Egypt, ancient India, China, ancient Babylon is completely different, is an independent civilization system, this ancient civilization died out for some reason 10,000 years ago, and the existing historical books say that it sank to the bottom of the sea."

"I also know the legend of Atlantis, but what does this have to do with the missing classmates?"

"Lin Fan, in my sophomore year, I helped Professor Li Dong sort out a document material, which is about the ancient kingdom of Daxizhou, and I still remember the information recorded on it."

"What is written on the material?"

"This material collects all the historical materials about the ancient kingdom of Daxizhou from ancient times to the present, from Plato's oral records dating back to 350 B.C., to the ruins of the ancient city found at the bottom of Bermuda at the end of 1980, all the materials strongly prove that the ancient kingdom of Daxizhou is not a legend, but a civilization that once really existed in the world, and the level of civilization reached by this ancient civilization 10,000 years ago is already comparable to that of modern civilization."

"Yu Tong, what do you mean......" Lin Fan followed Ji Yutong's words and deduced, "Do you want to say that the red dragon is a product of the Atlantis civilization!?" Are you sure? Have you seen the origin of that dragon in any literature? ”

Ji Yutong shook his head and said, "I haven't seen any record of that red sea dragon in the literature, but there is another thing mentioned in the Great Western Continent civilization. ”

"Something else?! What is it? ”

"The magnetite is the hexahedral crystal that Dr. Sid dug up from the ruins of the core area."

"Magnet Stone......" Lin Fan immediately remembered the scene on the dragon's head today, the two weirdos urged the goddess to do something was to "recover the Magneto Stone", Lin Fan was horrified, and immediately grabbed Ji Yutong's shoulders and asked, "What is this Magnet Stone?!" What does it have to do with the ancient kingdom of the Great Western Continent?!"

Ji Yutong's body was shocked, and he hurriedly dodged away from Lin Fan for a few minutes, and said: "The magnet stone is the legendary energy crystal of Atlantis, it is an inexhaustible energy body, and it is said that the cornerstone of the civilization of the Great Western Continent is built on this magnet stone. ”

Lin Fan hurriedly let go of Ji Yutong's shoulders, waved his hand and apologized: "I'm sorry Yutong, I'm in a hurry...... That, according to you, that dragon and those weirdos are descendants of Atlantis? ”

"Well, it's very likely to ......" Ji Yutong nodded, hurriedly tidied up her coat, her face was a little unnatural, and she said: "This is just my personal speculation, let's discuss it in private, don't tell everyone first, so as not to worry in vain." ”

"Hmm." Lin Fan agreed.

As they spoke, Lin Fan and Ji Yutong had already walked to the tower at the back of the ship, and they found that several American soldiers were stationed at the entrance of the tower. Ji Yutong stepped forward to ask them where Dr. Sid was, but the soldiers blocked her out.

"What's wrong? Won't they let us in? Lin Fan stepped forward and asked.

"They said Dr. Sid was calling the captain and key members of the ship to a meeting, and that we would not be allowed to go up until the meeting was over." Ji Yutong replied.

"It's okay, then we'll wait."

"Hmm"

After the two waited at the gate of the tower for a while, there was a commotion in the tower, and they saw many seamen from the ship coming out of the tower, and these seamen looked angry, and they said indignantly: "The Americans are really excessive! Helped them and did this to us! "I knew I wouldn't save them!" "Yes! Don't send us back to China, let us go back by ourselves, whatever! ”

"What's wrong?" Lin Fan wondered.

"I don't know...... Maybe Dr. Sid talked to them about some conditions. Ji Yutong said uncertainly, and then she stepped forward and asked the soldiers stationed at the entrance of the tower, and then turned to Lin Fan and said, "Lin Fan, Dr. Sid, they have finished their meeting, let's go up." ”
