Chapter Eighty-Five: The Headless Knights
Had lunch.
Ruan Xiaolian still has to go back to class.
Yan Jing, who had planned to stay in the library for a while, thought that Professor Yu might still be there, so he decisively gave up the idea.
Yan Jing Qingqing remembered that the other party was extracting a book about the legend of the Emperor of Di, even if he later knew through Ruan Xiaolian that the other party was a professor who studied this area, he still had some doubts.
After all, it is too much coincidence that the other party consults relevant books at this point in time.
Even if he wasn't an Ember Apostle, Professor Yu was most likely an official advisor on folklore.
Yan Jing finally established the trumpet of Luo Yan, but he didn't want his efforts to be in vain.
Changed to Luo Yan's appearance and contacted Wu Senyan.
The previous raid not only allowed the official to successfully take down the hive, but also allowed them to get a lot of research materials.
Yan Jing and Wu Senyan had an agreement in this regard.
He handed over everything related to the hive to the Secret Service, who had to share the results of any swarm research with him.
The entrustment or task left by Di Jun before the remnants disappeared, Yan Jing was still quite attentive.
You must know that at present, [Brute Tiger Qi] is only a mid-level skill, and the word (mutilated) following the end of the rank is undoubtedly reminding Yan Jing that the Tiger Monarch Seal is not all.
As long as you complete the entrustment of the king, it is likely that there will be follow-up rewards.
Regardless of anything else, the power of the brute tiger qi Yan Jing has tried in the past few days, and the bonus to the attack is beyond imagination, not to mention the special effect of [Fierce] [Evil Punishment].
Even without the strong suppression of the dragon and tiger qi against the yin and evil ghosts, it still has a pretty good effect.
After receiving Yan Jing's message, the Special Affairs Bureau sent someone to pick it up as soon as possible.
It's not that Yan Jing is hypocritical, he has to ask someone to come over, but the air-raid shelter where the Special Affairs Bureau is located has been set up as a military stronghold, and without a special person to lead it, Yan Jing has no chance to enter it at all.
The meeting place is still in the Nine Branches Group A.
When Yan Jing arrived, he found that the lights were turned off in the empty floor, and the wall on one side of the conference room became a display screen, and the images were directly presented on it, and the members of Group A were sitting or standing looking at the screen.
Wu Senyan stood at the front, holding the whip in his hand and saying something.
"Captain Luo Dao, the Special Affairs Bureau just got the video materials of the Headless Knights this morning, and the captain is explaining this classic case to the team members, If you want to get the research results of the hive as soon as possible, I can take you to another room."
An Ling was guarding the door in advance, and when she saw Yan Jing appear, she immediately approached and said.
"There's no hurry, can I take a look?"
Yan Jing looked at the magnificent church that appeared on the screen in front of him, and he was also a little curious in his heart.
"Of course, if you go this way, you can get closer and watch it."
The so-called "Headless Knights" are actually a major catastrophic attack in front of a cathedral in a foreign capital recently, and its international popularity has completely overwhelmed the attack of strange birds.
The reason is simple.
According to the data released so far, the incident lasted six hours from beginning to end, causing more than 1,000 deaths and several times the number of injured......
In contrast, it is not uncommon for the news of a flock of strange birds attacking Sanqing City to be completely ignored.
The footage of the video is a wide-angle shot of a drone, and it can be clearly seen that there are still quite a few believers gathered in front of the cathedral, and there should be some kind of religious ceremony going on at that time, and the believers are singing hymns in unison.
Until the time in the upper right corner is past twelve o'clock in the middle of the night.
The street floor on the left side of the square was first covered with a thick fog, followed by a large number of cracks, from which orange-red molten slurry gushed out.
It was as if the gates of hell had been opened.
Out of the lava rushed out a whole group of headless horsemen on skeletal horses, surging down the streets. By this time, the faithful in the church square had already sensed the problem.
The problem is that this is a gathering of nearly 10,000 people, how can it be so easy to evacuate in a short time?
The drone hovered high in the air, fully recording the hellish scene that followed......
"At that time, more than 20 media outlets broadcast the rally live, and more than a million people watched it at the same time, even if the official cut off the line at the first time, it still failed to stop the spread of the scene!"
An Ling stood beside Yan Jing and added in a low voice.
A religious gathering that was supposed to be a sacred moment was suddenly trampled and ravaged by a headless monster like a knight of hell, and even Yan Jing had always been an atheist and knew what a shock it would have on the faith of those devout believers.
The footage continued to play, and the local army, police, and even the Ember Apostles arrived at the scene one after another.
It didn't take long for Yan Jing to realize why this incident was called a classic case.
In the process of disaster relief, these forces that should have been united made a major omission in cooperation.
For example, the Ember Apostle just wanted to step forward, but the military's RPG fired a volley at the Headless Knights, directly enveloping the former, causing the Ember Apostles to be stabbed in the back before they could fight the monster.
Some of the Ember Apostles were completely undisciplined, only thinking about killing these monsters, and in the end, the monsters were not dead, but the surrounding people were able to withstand a wave of their attacks.
The firepower of the police department is completely insufficient, and what is helpless is that on the premise of realizing that the weapons at hand cannot cause damage to the monster, a considerable number of police officers did not choose to evacuate the crowd, but directly transferred to the bystander.
Their titles are not preceded by the word "people."
A small number of people want to rush into the square to save people, but there is no corresponding rescue plan, and even if they do, they don't know how to evacuate.
The scene was extremely chaotic, and this chaos was undoubtedly fatal to the people in the square who had not yet fled.
"Our luck is actually very good, the intensity of the strange bird attack is not high, the special affairs bureau has successfully carried it down, established its prestige, and the work behind it is much better, like the first time they encountered an attack of this magnitude, it is too late to organize, and it will inevitably cause chaos."
An Ling had already become a commentator at this time, and said,
"There is no trust between these forces..... Ironically, just before this incident, there had been a case of a private pharmaceutical group assigning mercenaries to arrest the Ember Apostles, and the latter's family approached the government, only to disappear before an answer could be answered. ”
Wu Senyan did not mention some external factors, but made an analysis of the deployment and actions after the disaster broke out on the scene, including how to evacuate the crowd, quickly and effectively carry out defensive counterattacks, and so on.
Touching others to cross the river, the old tradition.
By the time the lights in the empty layer came back on, it was already more than half an hour later.
Wu Senyan walked into the conference room with a few people and continued the topic just now:
"What you have just seen is only one of the catastrophic events that have occurred around the world in recent times, and the Special Service is obliged to analyze these events in order to be able to take advantage of similar disasters and avoid possible erroneous instructions in advance."
"Have other countries had disasters in the last two days?"
Pulling out the chair and sitting down, Yan Jing asked.
"Yes, probably those monsters also have a chat group, and they have discussed it privately, and there have been supernatural events around the world in the past three days that are far larger and more impactful than before, and we are sorting out this information to try to find out the possible patterns."
Zhao Qing, who came in from behind, shrugged his shoulders and made a joke.
If there are only a few places where supernatural events have erupted, it can be said to be a coincidence, after all, supernatural events happen all the time.
The problem is that these supernatural events have clearly increased in terms of the scope of their impact, the strength of the monsters, and the number of casualties caused.
This cannot be a coincidence!
"Is there anything worth saying about the hive?"
Yan Jing didn't have time to ponder these things that were still inconclusive, so he got straight to the point.
"The results that just came out last night were going to be sent to you after finishing them."
Opening the computer in the conference room and calling up the information in it, Wu Senyan continued,
"The research institute has sampled and compared various tissues of insects, mothers and strange birds, and found that there are genes similar to those of insects and beasts in strange birds, in other words, they seem to maintain the appearance of birds, but in fact they are no different from insects and beasts, and they are all controlled by the insect nest."
"This explains why this group of strange birds suddenly gathered to attack Shanqing City, but the reason for the attack has not yet been clarified."
Judging by the state of the hives in the face of military attacks, they are not ready for battle.
In this case, the reason why the mother worm controlled the monster bird to carry out this air raid seems to be a bit counterintuitive.
The two inconsistent behaviors of the insect nest buried in the ground, carrying out various disguises, and spreading insects and beasts disguised as ordinary beasts, but using air strikes to provoke the human side, are difficult not to confuse.
At present, the investigation by the Special Service in this area has yielded no results.
Yan Jing pursed his lips, but what he thought of was another possibility.
The Special Agents considers the clues based on the premise that the hive has been destroyed, but what if there are other swarms?
Who can guarantee that the nest that will be destroyed will be the one that creates the flock of strange birds?
"In addition, we have also found a very special catalytic agent or energy crystallization in the culture eggs attached to the mother worm and the hive, although there is no way to extract it, but it is certain that it can complete the transformation and enhancement of organisms in a short time."
An Ling answered on the side, this catalytic agent is obviously the main reason why the mother worm can create a large number of insects and beasts in a short period of time.
In the interval between the first salvo fired by the gunship, the fist-sized bugs were carried out of the nest, and the viscous liquid stuffed into the cultured eggs was supposed to be this catalytic agent.
Yan Jing listened to Wu Senyan and An Ling's alternating explanations, his face remained silent, and he added at the end,
"The swarm hasn't been completely wiped out yet!"
"Uh, what?"
Wu Senyan was stunned for a moment and asked.
"The Ember Apostle who is operating with me has a unique ability, and this is what he told me, the swarm has not been eliminated, and I suggest that you maintain a high level of monitoring of the Rujiang Mountains, and even a special task force to maintain a regular search is necessary!"
Although Yan Jing didn't plan to reveal anything about the remnants of the Emperor, he didn't want the Special Affairs Bureau to usher in a second wave of attacks without knowing it.
There are only a few hours left until the multiplayer otherworldly event begins.
Yan Jing was almost certain that this incident would be far more difficult than he had experienced before.
On the premise that you are not sure if you will be able to return smoothly.
It was a kind reminder from him.
