Chapter 44: The Secret of the Crystal Ball (Part I)

On the morning of the 23rd, the Einsatzgruppen received a special notice from Cui Ying, and the content was shocking again. It turned out that this morning, the global coalition forces stationed in Japan and the eastern coastal areas of Southeast Asia have discovered that millions of dark beasts lurk in the nearby trenches. The global coalition forces currently stationed in the region are on high alert for any disaster that may occur suddenly. At the same time, the total number of troops assembled in the coastal areas of the northwest Pacific has reached 80 million, ready to deal a devastating blow to the Dark Beast Legion and the Black Cross.

When the Einsatzgruppen heard this, they were not excited at all, on the contrary, they were worried. In their view, the number of people is not the main reason for determining the victory or defeat of the war, and knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is the only key to victory.

Cui Ying was never at ease with Yun Longfei's actions, and called him again and told him earnestly: "As long as you discover the power range of the Black Cross Organization, leave Octopus Paradise immediately, and leave the rest to the Global Alliance." Do you understand? ”

"War is not as easy to deal with as you think!" Yun Longfei replied sullenly on the other end of the phone.

"Long Fei, this is an order. Your mission has now been completed, and you can return to Beijing immediately. We want to minimize unnecessary casualties. Even if you don't care about life and death, you have to think about Liu Jiajia, who makes you crazy all day long, right? And how I feel. ”

"Can you tell me the exact date of the global coalition's operation? We need to be the most prepared. ”

"East 11th District, 0:00 on the 25th, act on time."

"Okay, we'll keep you informed of any details that have happened in the last two days."

"I ask you to make a promise, when will you return to Beijing?"

"Soon, see you in Beijing. When the time comes, please drink Lafite! The other party hung up the phone.

Cui Ying sat at her desk a little disappointed, puzzled. Yun Longfei and they have already discovered a large number of fleets and dark beast legions of the Black Cross Organization, and now they can completely return, but they are still in Octopus Paradise, what do they want to do? Thinking about it, I was always nervous.

The female colleagues next to them came over one after another. Quietly quipped: "Do you want your boyfriend to go crazy?" When he comes back, he might as well let his sisters get to know him! ”

Cui Ying was ashamed, "What are you talking about, I'm busy going!" ”

…………………………

Lu Fei made a shocking call to Yun Longfei: Last night, many tourists disappeared in Octopus Land!

Yun Longfei was frightened and asked, "How can this be?" Can you tell me where it is? Is it a hazy island to the northeast? ”

"No, it's missing in Paradise. People are walking on the street, and suddenly they disappear, like ghosts, strange and scary! We don't dare to stay here anymore. Just want to get back to the Phoenix. Lu Fei's words trembled a little.

"Quick, inform all the tourists on our ship and let them return as soon as possible!" This was Yun Longfei's first reaction.

"But what about the snow? I couldn't reach her all night. Could something be wrong? ”

"Leave it to us to find it! All you have to do now is hurry! ”

Lu Fei acted urgently, and happened to meet Takeshita Jika and others who had the same premonition, and the four of them joined together to notify all the tourists on the Phoenix Ship as quickly as possible. Except for Yang Shenfu and other 4 contracted tycoons, others returned to the Phoenix Wheel one after another. It is a very terrifying nightmare that the mysterious disappearance occurred in the dangerous waters of the Northwest Pacific. No one wants to die for playfulness. The foreign tourists were very puzzled when they saw the hurried actions of the Phoenix Wheel tourists, and just laughed it off.

After Lu Fei returned to the Phoenix Ship, he told the horror that happened last night. Although the Einsatzgruppen and special forces are with them. Still scared. Jika Takeshita simply took out the video of the tourists disappearing in an instant and let the special forces see it. The video is clear and terrifying. Two American tourists were walking under the street lamps of Angel Avenue, and two good heads suddenly disappeared! The two chambers of hot blood spurted out like a fountain. Then, the two corpses disappeared in an instant! This is a bloody scene that happened more than 20 meters in front of the eyes of the three people of Takeshita Jika. The three of them were shocked at that time. Screaming and running back to the Meteor Garden. They called the Einsatzgruppen, but they couldn't get through, and they couldn't do anything. I had to wait until now.

"It seems that there is something wrong with Octopus Paradise as well. We can't stay here anymore. Captain Lin stared at the video, his expression extremely cold.

"The liner must leave immediately. But before we can evacuate, we must understand the essence of Octopus Paradise and clear the way for the global coalition. Yun Longfei stared at Octopus Paradise with a worried face.

"What? We've completed our mission, and Cui Ying just called us to ask us to return to Beijing! Zhou Qiaoqiao said anxiously.

Yun Longfei smiled bitterly, "Yes, the task is indeed completed, you can go back, I must stay here." ”

"What the hell do you want, little boy? Do you want to be angry with your sister? Zhou Qiaoqiao was so anxious that she couldn't help but pull his arm.

"I'm completely suspicious of Octopusland, I have to know everything!" Yun Longfei said firmly.

Zhou Qiaoqiao flashed a hint of surprise. "What, you wouldn't be suspicious of Dr. Sirius, would you?"

"In this special period, we have reason to doubt everything!"

Zhou Qiaoqiao was angry, his face was red with anger, and he shook his arm hard, facing his face, ready to exert his might. Ouyang Lan hurriedly walked over and squeezed between the two, signaling Zhou Qiaoqiao to exercise restraint and stop their conflict.

"I know a jeweler on the high street who might give us some special help," Jin said. ”

"Are you sure?" Ouyang Lan asked.

The tuna nodded earnestly. "Briefly contacted. He's not just a regular jeweler, and might want to give us some insider tips. ”

Yun Longfei's eyes lit up, and he immediately made an action gesture. "Act now!"

…………………………

The Einsatzgruppen drove slowly down Angel Avenue in a tour van, trying to spot something unusual, but to no avail. Zhou Qiaoqiao once doubted the credibility of Japanese girls, and even suspected that they were playing pranks! Yun Longfei and Ouyang Lan were convinced of this, and they believed in the vision of Lu Fei and Ji Xiang Takeshita. Ouyang Lan kept looking around, and suddenly found a terrifying scene on Jinxiang Mountain. The 10 climbers had just walked halfway up the mountain, and their heads disappeared in an instant! Ouyang Lan screamed in fright and almost fell into Yun Longfei's arms. Everyone looked for Ouyang Lan's point, and sure enough, the 10 headless corpses disappeared in an instant under their noses! The bloody picture is realistically presented in front of your eyes. The Einsatzgruppen was terrified, and the tourists were mysteriously devoured, and sure enough, something happened!

Everyone now realizes that such a terrifying incident could happen in the world of fairy tales, which has always been elegant and beautiful! Dangerous!

Yun Longfei looked at Zhou Qiaoqiao and Ouyang Lan in a panic, and shook his head helplessly. "There's nothing we can do to stop those horrors. There's no time, focus on the big picture. ”

The tour bus quickly drove to the shopping street. The tuna led the way and led everyone into a jewelry store. They casually looked at all the jewelry in the store, looking so casual. But without losing grace. They all have extraordinary temperaments, and they soon attracted the attention of the store manager, Mei Que. He thought to himself that these people might not have come to buy gems. I happened to see the tuna I just met a few days ago, so I greeted him warmly.

Jin Kun handed a color to the other 5 people, approached Mei Que, smiled and asked, "Is there a good blue stone on the ground?" ”

"Blue Stone? This one...... I don't have one here. Mei Que replied a little curtly. He had already heard the meaning.

Yun Longfei had already walked up to Mei Que, and with the help of Zhou Qiaoqiao, Ouyang Lan and Jin Kun's bodies, he took out a special pass covered with the "Northwest Pacific Special Action Team of the People's Republic of China" to show his intentions. Zhou Qiaoqiao and Ouyang Lan smiled at the same time.

Mei Que is a shrewd person. I was shocked, and I quickly understood what I meant. The conversation changed sharply, and he accompanied him with a smile: "Of course there is." Please come with me to the 3rd floor to pick up new products. ”

In the secret gem storage room on the 3rd floor, Plum Bird brings out a few bottles of boutique Lafite. Hospitality to the Einsatzgruppen. He was pleasantly surprised: "I guessed correctly, you are really not ordinary people!" ”

"It's rare that Boss Mei is a hero with a discerning eye, which is gratifying and respectable!" Ouyang Lan smiled back.

Mei Qiqian smiled, "I can't imagine it." The Beijing headquarters attaches great importance to this incident and has transferred you all. It's a miracle that you're here alive! I admire your superpowers. Seemingly. You are halfway through your mission to save the world. ”

"You know better than we know what Octopus is going on, right?" Yun Longfei asked.

"So to speak! You're in Octopus Paradise, and you're actually in the mouth of a tiger. ”

The Einsatzgruppen was shocked and looked at each other.

Mei Que said calmly: "Actually, Octopus Paradise is also within the scope of the Black Cross organization's power. The staff here seem to have some kind of close connection with them. I think they have mysterious motives that are not well known. ”

"What we need most is to prove the source of these problems, which are the key to solving the apocalyptic crisis of the world." Yun Longfei propped one hand on his chin, feeling anxious.

Mei Que was silent for a moment, flashing a solemn expression. "If you really want to know everything about Octopus Paradise, you still have a chance. Then you have to go to the Science Building. Through the grapevine, it is said that there is a crystal archive in the basement, where all the answers can be found. However, there is a special guard inside, and outsiders can't enter it at all. There have been many agents from various countries who have tried to steal the scientific secrets inside, but they have failed. ”

"Failed? Are all the people dead there? Ouyang Lan asked softly.

Mei Que nodded heavily.

"What's in there? Are there a lot of bodyguards guarding them? Ouyang Lan continued to ask.

Mei Que shook her head with a blank expression. "I don't know the specifics, but it's definitely not human. I've been trying to get these secrets, but none of the staff can figure out what's inside. No one has been there at all, except for the core staff. That's all I know, and I hope it can help you. ”

Yun Longfei glanced at everyone and nodded with satisfaction. "It's pretty much the same, the problem is pretty much the same. The day after tomorrow, the global coalition will launch an all-out attack on the Black Cross, covering all the seas of the Northwest Pacific. Our mission is to uncover the mysterious stronghold of the Black Cross. We recommend that you leave here immediately. ”

Mei Que clapped her hands in surprise. "It's wonderful! I've finally come to this day! Thank you for your notification and good luck! ”

Looking at the back of the Einsatzgruppen in the distance, Mei Que was pleasantly surprised, and increased the amount with her hand: The savior of the world is finally here!

…………………………

The tour bus stops at the intersection of the Garden of the Octopus God. Yun Longfei turned to Zhou Qiaoqiao and said, "It is recommended that you go to the Garden of the Octopus God to investigate the genetic structure of the genetically modified intelligent octopus, and you may be able to find some key details." ”

Zhou Qiaoqiao was displeased. "Why should you tell me to go? What about you? ”

"You're the only marine life expert, and who else can handle this most critical operation but you? I'll have to go to the Science Building to find the Crystal Archives. ”

Zhou Qiaoqiao was shocked and realized the importance of the matter, but still asked timidly: "Will I go alone?" You're not here, what if I have three longs and two shorts? Who's going to be responsible for me? ”

"The four of us act together!" Jin Tuna and other 3 people shouted out at the same time.

Zhou Qiaoqiao smiled heartily and glanced at Yun Longfei angrily. Take the lead and get out of the car and walk towards the Garden of the Octopus God.

Yun Longfei looked at her arrogance and willfulness, shook his head and smiled silently.

…………………………

The Kopp Building is a magnificent 21-storey building with a height of 70 meters and a building area of 2,000 square meters. The deep blue crystal glass wall shell reflects the sea-like expansiveness, which makes people imagine it endlessly! Rich scientific knowledge and various marine animal models have attracted countless eyeballs in the world. Millions of scientists, physicians, nutritionists, businessmen, and scholars have traveled thousands of miles to the Holy Land to see the wonders of biology, and they are all proud! Science Building, one of the most successful landmark buildings in Octopus Paradise, has opened the door to popular science in the era of intelligent biology for the world!

The Science Building is divided into 20 comprehensive exhibition halls according to the number of floors. Each layer brings together a model of a class of marine animals, as well as a detailed description and future outlook. From bottom to top, there are 18 animal clade systems, including Jellyfish, Sponge, Cephalopod, Valve Gill, Bivalve, Gastropoda, Crustacea, Starfish, Fish, Reptiles, and Mammals. On the 19th and 20th floors, there are models of various genetically modified intelligent octopuses on display, which are the essence of the Science Building. Each marine animal is described in Chinese, Russian, French and Danish. Illustrated. The content is vivid and colorful, and the visitors are endless.

Yun Longfei took Ouyang Lan to scan the exhibition hall on each floor in detail, from the exhibition hall of the Jellyfish class on the first floor to the genetically modified intelligent octopus exhibition hall on the 20th floor, including all the representative standard rooms in the hall, they all had a full view, but still found nothing. There are no stairs or passages to the basement at all on the 1st floor. The two reached the 21st floor through a staircase in a remote corner, where the hall was empty, with only a spiral staircase leading to the top. Very likely. There is no basement here that Mei Que is talking about, let alone any crystal archives.

The two were helpless, staggering in the empty hall. Later, walk into a small exhibition room. Cuddle up in the corner by the window and take a nap, thinking about what to do next. There is no one here, only space for the two of them. The fresh sea breeze frequently swept the two of them, and the smell of perfume on each other's bodies blended together. Weaving into a warm paradise, provoking people to spring. Ouyang Lan couldn't help but bury her head in Yun Longfei's arms, letting the fragrance of lilies spread to his face. Yun Longfei was slightly drunk. In an instant, there was an impulse to hug Ouyang Lan tightly, but she quickly controlled herself. Ouyang Lan was obsessed with immortality, hugged his neck, closed her eyes slightly, and anxiously searched for his lips. At the moment of the kiss, Ouyang Lan's whole body trembled slightly, and her hands hung down involuntarily to unbutton each other's clothes. Yun Longfei suddenly woke up, gently pushed her away, and turned his head to the side.

"Honey, we can't do this yet."

"For what? We've already had it once, and I'm yours. Don't you want it? Ouyang Lan was shocked and looked at him softly.

Yun Long flew up and said lightly: "After returning to Beijing, I can promise you every day." But for now, it's better to investigate the stairs leading to the Crystal Archives! ”

Ouyang Lan nodded reluctantly, a trace of tears flashing in her eyes.

The two walked down the hall again, ready to return to the first floor. Ouyang Lan suddenly thought: "Since there is no staircase leading to the basement on the first floor, will there be a secret passage on the other floors?" ”

Yun Longfei suddenly woke up, yes, there must be a secret passage to the basement hidden upstairs. The question is, on which floor will it be?

Ouyang Lan reminded that it must be in the layer that is most easily ignored. Remembering the three-phase bomb hideout in the basement of Neptune Island, the entrance to the mysterious staircase is most likely somewhere on the wall. Sure enough, Ouyang Lan faintly smelled the light mandala incense in the small exhibition room in the center, speculating that there might be an invisible door inside. Yun Longfei tried to push each wall, and soon ran into the invisible door in the corner. Inside is an open and wide elevator that leads to the basement 50 meters below sea level. Obviously, this is the way to the Crystal Archives. The mysterious staircase is located in such an inconspicuous place, of course, ordinary people can't find it, even the top detectives in the world will sigh with admiration!

Two people take the elevator to the basement. When the elevator door opens, a 2,000-square-meter lobby comes into view. The hall is bright and splendid, like an elegant and luxurious underground palace, which is quite spectacular. Directly in front of the hall is a deep blue crystal wall decorated with various brilliant gemstones, as well as a black mandala motif made of black crystal. The hall was empty except for four blue agate containers with a diameter of 5 meters. The two couldn't help but wonder, how could there be nothing in the underground hall?

"Long Fei, we can't be in the wrong place, right?" Ouyang Lan asked in surprise.

"The smell of mandala perfume wafts from here to the outside. I believe that the information provided by Mei Que should be correct. Yun Longfei was determined.

The two concluded that there must be an invisible door on the wall of the hall. The two searched carefully for 20 minutes, but to no avail. Yun Longfei leaned against the crystal wall a little disappointed, at a loss. When Ouyang Lan took out her mobile phone to take pictures, she accidentally took out a heart-shaped pink diamond, which rolled down to the lower left corner of the crystal wall. She walked over, crouched down to pick it up, and stumbled upon a very hidden word "DJAEVELVAEG" carved into the corner, in such a small font and so the same color as the wall, that no one could spot it. The strange words caught Ouyang Lan's attention.

"Long Fei, come and see, there is a strange word engraved here."

Yun Long flew over and looked at it carefully for a moment, puzzled. Ask: "What does it mean to write?" ”

Ouyang Lan shrugged her shoulders and said a little timidly, "'Devil's Wall'." Could this be an entrance to the trap? ”

"Quite possibly."

Yun Longfei tried to touch the words, and a miracle soon appeared! The text glows with a dazzling blue light! Then, there was a slight rumbling sound from the crystal wall, and a hafnium alloy security door with a height of 5 meters, a width of 3 meters, and a thickness of 1 meter opened automatically. Another hall of the same size appeared in front of the two of them. However, the light in this hall is relatively dim, and there is a faint sense of fairyland. The most exciting thing is that the amethyst aegis-shaped door directly in front of them is the crystal archive room they are desperately looking for!

Just as Mei Que heard the news, there is indeed a crystal archive room in the mysterious basement of the Science Popularization Building! The two were overjoyed and prepared to rush over. Yun Longfei suddenly grabbed Ouyang Lan's arm, remembering Mei Que's advice, the road to the crystal archive room was full of all kinds of dangers, and everyone had no return. Judging from the current situation, is it too easy to take all this action?

As expected, a light fragrance of mandala flowers crept in from behind the two of them. Yun Longfei suddenly realized that there must be some kind of abnormality behind him, but he wasn't sure what it was. He quickly pulled out his uranium shooting gun, hurriedly turned around and aim, but saw nothing! Evil door, is it an illusion? However, he vaguely felt that there was an invisible creature quietly following the two of them not far behind! He motioned for Ouyang Lan to hold his breath and listen to the movements around him. Indeed, the slightest sound of moving objects crept closer, closer and closer! At the same time, the fragrance of mandala flowers is mixed with a faint smell of sea! Yun Long Fei panicked, yes, there must be living organisms nearby! Most likely, a dark octopus with stealth capabilities!
