General Belazov arrived in the secret room.

The moment he stepped into this large structure, made of a mixture of solid reinforced concrete and a boulder base, the burly gray-haired soldier felt a majestic, solemn, and solemn and eerie atmosphere, which came from the runic reliefs that could be found throughout the building, and the closed doors in the corridors along the way.

The ubiquitous runes are part of the building's security measures, designed to protect against extraordinary intrusions from the outside to prevent unwanted visitors from entering the building, and behind the closed doors lead to deep passages that can end in a sealing room for anomalies, a dangerous warehouse for specimens, researchers in a makeshift madness, and ancient archives that are forbidden to be accessed but cannot be destroyed.

Walking inside this building, as if walking between the real world and the abyss of madness, as if standing on some invisible line of defense and looking at another sinister world, even ordinary people who do not have extraordinary strength and spiritual talents may feel nervous tension and hair standing on end.

“…… Are the security measures here really enough to make sure 'that thing' doesn't go wrong? ”

General Belazov, following a military scholar leading the way, couldn't help but ask as he passed a pitch-black alloy gate.

"The 'Chamber of Secrets' facility is the most heavily secured building on Dagger Island, all rooms here have individual security and transcendent barriers, and every item with a danger level of more than Level 3 leads directly to the furnace, and even aside from the various transcendent barriers, this building can withstand the full force of a saint-level enemy even in terms of structural strength," said the scholar who led the way in a proud tone, "Unless any of the ancient gods spread their power, this place is foolproof." ”

Speaking of this, the scholar who led the way paused, and then continued: "And then again, although 'that thing' is strange everywhere, it itself is actually far more 'stable' than we thought at the beginning...... and can even be said to be honest. ”

"Stability? Honest? General Belazov frowned and subconsciously spoke.

"Yes, it's not too rigorous to say that," the scholar nodded, "It's been hanging in the middle of the chamber for many days, and normally, this weird thing will more or less show some 'living' characteristics, affecting the surrounding environment in various ways, but it has never shown this kind of behavior. No matter is released, no power is escaped, and no properties beyond the dimensions of reality - while the samples scraped from it have some strange physical properties, they are limited to physical properties, and compared to most dangerous objects in its class, it is honestly like a stone. ”

“…… It's an interesting situation, and I'll report it to the city-state archon. General Belazov said casually.

A researcher in a blue coat walked from the opposite side, hurried past the area, nodding to the general as he passed him, and leaving without stopping.

The sound of some kind of mollusk squirming came from inside the blue coat.

"People here are in a hurry." General Belazov said casually.

"Yes, that's the case every day in the Chamber of Secrets - our job is not limited to analyzing the diving bell, but also everything else in the surveillance facility," the scholar who led the way shrugged, "please don't mind everyone's rudeness. ”

"It's okay, I don't care much about these rules myself," the general said, frowning slightly, "Is it my delusion?" There's always a strange smell in there—it's been smelling since I came in, it's like some kind of ...... The smell of aquatic life. ”

"This is Dagger Island Bay - the ventilation system of the building is directly connected to the outside, and it is normal to have this smell, plus the strange smell of disinfectant and sedimentation tank, you can smell everything," said the scholar who led the way, sighing, "Actually, we have always wanted to apply for funds to repair the ventilation pipes in here, but the response from the superiors is always 'it can be used'." ”

The general was noncommittal, and just looked up at the end of the hallway.

Professor Melson was already standing in the doorway.

……

Tirion checked his coat and hair one last time, and after leaving the mirror, he walked to a nearby shelf, looking at the objects on it.

He hesitated for a long time about what to take with him.

Do you want to bring a sword? Do I need to bring a gun? Do you have to bring an amulet?

Weapons don't seem to be useful, he can't expect to rely on a sword or a gun to keep him safe on the Lost Country, not to mention that he was invited to be a "guest" on the Lost Country, and if he goes with a weapon, it will not only seem too insincere, but it may also anger his father.

The amulet has no practical effect, but it may have some psychological comfort effect when you bring it, but I don't know what kind of attitude my father has towards the "gods" now, and he will be disgusted? Or dismissive?

For the first time, the biggest pirate leader on the cold sea has struggled with the matter of "going out" for so long.

He's going to the Lost - he's going back to the Lost Country.

It was where he spent his childhood, where most of the warm memories of his life were, the parts he didn't want to remember and face, and after a century of absence, he suddenly found himself unable to imagine what it would be like to step onto that ship.

At this moment, the voice of the first mate Aiden suddenly came from outside the door, interrupting Tirien's thoughts: "Captain, are you ready?" ”

Tirien frowned and shouted outside the door, "It's almost ready, don't rush." ”

"I mean, you'd better hurry," Aiden's voice rang out again, this time with a palpable sense of tension, "for Her Majesty's sake...... The messenger has arrived! ”

The messenger has come.

Tyrion was stunned for a moment, then realized the strangeness in Aiden's tone, and hurried to the door, opening the door with a hand.

Aiden's voice continued to sound: "Captain, if you don't open the door again, I'll ...... Ah, thank goodness you finally opened the door! ”

Tirien stared at the scene in the doorway.

His loyal first mate was standing tense as a terrifying bone bird covered in green flames stood atop Aiden's slick head, the bone bird bursting with flames, and scattered spirit flames falling down on Aiden's body from time to time.

On the bone's chest, a bronze compass floated in mid-air—it was his father's belongings.

Anomaly 022, Psychic Compass.

"Captain, can you stop looking, let this bird come down from my head first......" Aiden's voice trembled a little, "this fire keeps falling on my body......"

The Bone Giant Bird tilted its head, as if to observe Tirian carefully, and suddenly opened its mouth and let out a female voice with a strange tone: "Go to Chenghua Avenue and take the Erxian Bridge...... Get in! There's a seat, there's a big seat! All ...... a little further Peanut drink mineral water! ”

Tirian was suddenly startled by this string of voices, and the first sentence that came to his mind-

How is the Father's messenger so moving?

Then he began to wonder what the strange word that suddenly popped up of the strange bird meant—but he didn't understand it for a long time.

But he found that Aiden was almost fainting.

"Let's go," Tirion shook his head, forcibly tossing aside the messy thoughts in his mind, no longer thinking about how to face his father when he arrived on the Lost Land, and with the mentality of leaving everything to improvise, he looked at the strange bone bird, "How are we ......"

Before he could finish speaking, he saw the giant bird suddenly step on Aiden's skull and soar into the air, and then swoop down from the sky, with a dark green flame filling his vision, and only a strange cry came from Tirian's ear: "Your father is coming!" ”

In the next second, he felt as if all his senses were being disrupted and reassembled, and then he felt like he was being thrown into the sky at some point - he shuttled between darkness and cold, and he didn't know how long it was, maybe only for a moment, and this strange feeling of vertigo and detachment suddenly disappeared without a trace.

The feeling of groundedness reappeared, the darkness and weightlessness dissipated, the sun shining through the mist and shining on her body again, and with the return of the familiar five senses, Tirion saw the scene in front of her gradually clear from the tremors.

It seemed that a tall figure was standing in front of him.

But it wasn't the father—the figure was too slender compared to the father, it was more like a woman.

Kind of familiar.

Tirion blinked vigorously, finally focusing her vision and seeing the face of the person in front of her.

A beautiful woman with long white hair and a shawl and a scar on her left eye.

Vanna looked at the pirate leader in front of her with a strange expression, and then turned her head awkwardly to look at a few figures not far away who were waiting to see the excitement.

Finally, she sighed and said to Tyrion, "Captain Tyrion, I know you have a lot to ask ......"

Before Vana could finish speaking, Tirion instantly took a half-step back and looked at the Inquisitor in front of her in amazement.

"He knocked out Prand?!"

The biggest pirate leader in the Cold Sea is in shock.
