Chapter 437: In the Name of Rome

This situation is frustrating, but it is true.

After experiencing the initial surprise and longing, the dazzling aura of the special function has gradually dimmed, and then it has revealed its useless true colors and has been sent to the cold palace.

As for any 'epoch-making' fantasy, it is even more completely fantastical.

At that time, those with special abilities screened and cultivated by the research department could at most have good superpowers with the assistance of 'energy mediums', such as spying into the secret text in the safe, or stealing the scattered objects in it. Originally, this ability can be considered very practical, at least it can be used to carry out efficient espionage activities; But the problem is that the number of 'energy media' we had at that time was very scarce and extremely precious, and it was impossible and not allowed to let people with special functions carry them with them in order to exert their superpowers, let alone carry them out of the country to play a role in international conferences and embassies and consulates.

To put it bluntly, it seems to be a gorgeous special function, but it does not have any all-powerful power to change the world; Although this is a fact that has been proven by the real yĆ n, it is extremely difficult for all the participants in the study to accept.

If, just if, things continue like this, then the investigation department and the rest of us will probably continue to sink idle, thinking hard every day about the superpower phenomenon caused by the 'energy medium'...... Now that I think about it, if that was the case, maybe it would have been a kind of luck.

But in any case, with the discovery of that area, all of this qiē became turned upside down. ā€

Speaking of this in one breath, Zakhaev's breathing became a little rapid, and after a long narration, he finally touched the amazing memory in the depths of his heart. He really needs to adjust his mood.

And with the interlude of Zakhaev's words. Long Yun also let out a sigh of relief; He lifted the kettle and refilled a cup of tea for the old man in front of him and himself. Then he watched as Zakaev lit another cigarette in his hand. Perhaps the next topic was heavier, but this time Zakhaev delayed a little longer, reaching out and rummaging through his folder for a moment, then snuffing out his cigarette butt and placing a wide photograph with thin latitude and longitude grid lines on the table in front of Long Yun.

"The following matter, Comrade Rezenov, is related to the 'zero-three-five-three' zone that you already know.

Just about twenty years ago, in 1976 to be exact, the KGB first received a report from the radio surveillance department. In the hinterland of Central Asia, electromagnetic radiation signals of unknown origin and strange characteristics have been discovered.

At first, after a preliminary investigation, the agents in charge of radio surveillance believed that it might be some natural phenomenon or the activities of Western agents, and basically determined that the radiation area was in the desert area on the northern side of the Aral Sea; However, the KGB then received reports from the Air Force, Air Defense Forces, and Civil Aviation Administrations one after another, showing that when the aircraft flew over a specific area of Central Asia -- yes, this 0353 area -- it would be subjected to inexplicable signal interference, and even endangered flight safety more than once.

After receiving a large number of relevant reports, the KGB attached great importance to this matter, and not only temporarily designated the 0353 area as a flight exclusion zone. A reconnaissance team of KGB agents, paranormal agents, and special operators was also dispatched to the area to conduct a covert investigation. Outcome. After months of work in the 0353 area, the survey team made a huge discovery of unprecedented importance. But...... I can't tell you exactly what happened to this investigation now, because there is very little information about the whole thing, and you will understand the reason later.

All in all, after some investigation and exploration, the team discovered a huge structure in the vicinity of Baikonur in northwestern Central Asia, which is now the center of the 0353 region.

Of course, if you want to say anything about 'huge structure', I am not a personal witness to the incident, and I have never seen it with my own eyes, so I can only relay the contents of the report to you in the original text. As far as my personal understanding goes, it seems to mean the discovery of underground mineral deposits of 'energy media', and the reserves are quite considerable? That's how it should be.

Obviously, although no one knew what would happen if something like 'energy media' was gathered in large numbers at the time, since it had the effect of strengthening and inspiring special functions, the more the better. As a result, under the top-secret instructions of the highest level of the KGB, the 0353 area was designated as a first-class top-secret control zone, and this originally desolate Gobi area was soon established as a small town with multiple functions of research, development, and exploration, and many agents and engineers conducted secret research there.

The name we gave to this town, which was built out of thin air in the desert, was ...... 'Rome'. ā€

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ Rome? ā€

Sitting on the couch and listening for a long time, Long Yun muttered for the first time, he now finally knew that the word originally represented not a KGB department, but a small town established in the 0353 area - of course, the town was a cover-up, but in fact it should be a secret base.

This statement is also consistent with Victor's secret diary, so he should have been to this mysterious town-

What, what does it mean?

There seems to be somewhere...... A little off?

Suddenly, many thoughts flashed in his mind, and Long Yun immediately realized what the panic in his heart suddenly was: as a time-traveler, his current identity is Viktor Rezenov, and reading Viktor's diary (this thing should not be possible and necessary), he obviously went to "Rome" a long time ago. But now, Zakhaev in front of him should have consulted Viktor's resume, but he spoke in a tone as if he was explaining to someone who had never been in contact with "Rome".

So what is going on in this situation, because the fact that Victor went to "Rome" is unknown? Or is Zakhaev in front of him deliberately evasive?

Or is it something else......

Feeling the trickiness of this problem, Long Yun didn't dare to slack off, he unconsciously used his consciousness to snoop and scan Zakaev's thinking, of course, using superpowers in the mysterious "Rome General Bureau" should still be a little risky; After a brief probing action, he found that the old man in front of him did not have any concept of "Victor had been to 'Rome'", and there was no abnormal consciousness activity around him, so he was temporarily relieved.

As for the real connection between Victor and "Rome", after knowing that the purpose of the base was to study superpowers, Long Yun had a great curiosity, but he could only put this curiosity aside for the time being.

Anyway, now that he has a clue, the mystery should be solved by him soon. (To be continued......)
