Earth, Space Travel Bureau.

Lin Lin was frantically flipping through the list of tourists who had left Earth, hoping to find Jiang Chen's name, but in the end it all ended in failure, no matter how many times he repeated it, he could not find the word 'Jiang Chen' in it.

"Why is there no name for him, hasn't he left the earth?" Lin Lin muttered.

Since returning to the earth three days ago, Lin Lin has been investigating Jiang Chen's whereabouts, but whether it was found by Grandpa Liu, or whether he entered the travel bureau to find out in person through Hu Zhentian's relationship, there was no news about Jiang Chen's departure from the earth, everything pointed to one thing, Jiang Chen was still on the earth.

But if he's still on Earth, why can't he be found everywhere? Whether it is the surveillance video near his home, or the answer Lin Lin got after visiting Jiangchen's neighbors.

"That young man from the Jiang family? When you say this, it seems that you haven't seen him come back for a few days, maybe you're making a lot of money outside, right? It's normal not to go home for a few days. ”

As for Jiang Chen's parents, they left the earth to travel long before Jiang Chen disappeared, so they didn't know the whereabouts of their son, of course, Lin Lin didn't say anything about Jiang Chen's disappearance, but only came to the conclusion by knocking on the side.

Putting down the list of tourists, Hu Zhentian sent a communication.

"Mr. Lin, I found the news!" Hu Zhentian's voice came out.

"What? Where is it? Lin Lin immediately cheered up, he was going to arrest Jiang Chen and beat him up this time, and he actually disappeared?

Hearing Lin Lin's question, Hu Zhentian became hesitant: "Well, this, Mr. Lin, you should come to my side, you need to say it in person." ”

Say it to your face? Lin Lin was a little puzzled, wasn't it Jiang Chen's whereabouts? I told myself directly, if I went to him by myself, it would be over, why did I need to say it in person? However, Lin Lin still agreed: "Okay, you're still on the Kunlun Mountain, right?" I'm coming for you. ”

"No, no, Mr. Lin, I'm not over there anymore, I'm in charge of the entire Northwest Theater now." Hu Zhentian said with a smile.

"Northwest Theater?"

"That's right, just the one you killed last time, I handed over his body, and it didn't take long for me to tell me that I was promoted, and I'm here in the Cloth Nur Basin now, I'll send you the coordinates, you can come directly." Hu Zhentian did not hide his joy at all, even Qiu Chu, who was standing next to him, could see his face.

According to the original arrangement, after Hu Zhentian was promoted, Qiu Chu should take over his position in Kunlun Mountain, but due to the strong request of Hu Zhentian and Qiu Chu, and the fact that the corpse handed over by Hu Zhentian was of particularly important research significance, the boss had to promote Qiu Chu to one more level, and he was still Hu Zhentian's deputy at this time.

Qiu Chu stepped forward and coughed twice, signaling Hu Zhentian to restrain himself, don't be too excited, but Hu Zhentian was not happy, and said: "I'm finally promoted, can't I be happy?" ”

"I mean, you're so happy, you just say it when you meet people, I'm afraid that others won't know that you are now one of the commanders of the eight theaters, and it's almost right." Qiu Chu scolded angrily, during this time, even if he met a dog on the road, Hu Zhentian couldn't wait to go up and talk to it about his promotion, which made Qiu Chu, the adjutant who had to follow Hu Zhentian's side at all times, feel very embarrassed.

Then, the two scolded like this, and Hu Zhentian didn't care that he hadn't hung up the communication with Lin Lin at all.

Silently hanging up the communication, Lin Lin walked out of the tourism bureau, summoned the mecha, and flew out in the amazement of passers-by.

I have to say that after Hu Zhentian was promoted, it was also helpful to Lin Lin's side, for example, if Lin Lin used to drive a mecha to take off in the downtown area, he would inevitably be stopped by the police for interrogation, but now, after Hu Zhentian was promoted, he directly turned Lin Lin into a white list, as long as it affects the order, he can fly at will.

……

After a short time, Lin Lin approached the place where the coordinates were displayed, and from the air, the Bunur Basin looked like it was pressed out by a huge turtle, and its limbs and head were clearly visible.

About this place, Lin Lin only knew about its urban legends, what parallel universes and the like, but Lin Lin didn't have the slightest interest in these things at that time, he just heard some of them when his classmates were chatting.

However, looking at it now, Lin Lin felt that there really seemed to be a hint of mystery in it, because in such a dry place, looking down from the air, there was actually some vague feeling, just like fog, you know, Lin Lin was strengthened, even so, there was a foggy feeling, which was enough to prove the difference here.

For now, even if there were no urban legends, Lin Lin would think that there was something wrong here, at least, the magnetic field here was wrong.

Because of this mysterious feeling, Lin Lin finally gave up the idea of entering the basin directly, and followed the coordinates and landed next to the barracks.

Qiu Chu walked up to Lin Lin and took Lin Lin to the tent where Hu Zhentian was: "Mr. Lin, this matter of your friend is a bit complicated, and we can't confirm whether he is still alive or not. ”

"Complicated: Stocked?" Lin Lin became more and more confused, what happened to his ordinary good friend, not only was his whereabouts secret, but he also didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

Hu Zhentian clicked on a video and said to Lin Lin: "Mr. Lin, look, this is a piece of photographic equipment that our people found in the basin. ”

After Lin Lin nodded, the video began to play.

At the beginning, it was okay, but it was recorded that several travelers went on an expedition together, including Jiang Chen, who Lin Lin had been looking for, and the time on the video showed that it was just seven days ago, the day before Lin Lin contacted Jiang Chen.

The video is very short, only thirty minutes in total, half of which is Jiang Chen and a few people talking and laughing and hiking in the desert, and the second half becomes weird.

Several of them moved faster, with a hint of fear on their faces, and the photographer kept looking back as they moved, as if they were looking at something, but they didn't capture what they were afraid of.

In the end, the photographer fell in the desert, and the video was frozen here, and in the final scene, several people who were on the expedition collapsed to the ground, not knowing whether they were alive or dead.

"Mr. Lin, that's it." Hu Zhentian looked at the silent Lin Lin.

"What about the corpses?" Lin Lin found the problem, why is there only a video? In this last scene, several people fell to the ground, but why did they only take out the video?

Hu Zhentian and Qiu Chu glanced at each other and said, "The person who found the equipment didn't find a corpse in the vicinity, and there was no trace of dragging on the ground, so I would say that this matter is a bit complicated." ”

"No body? Not even a trace? Lin Lin's feeling was not good, could it be that there were new foreigners who were using earthlings for experiments, and Jiang Chen was unlucky and was selected?

"Yes, we are now wondering if aliens have come to Earth, like they did hundreds of years ago, to arrest people for experiments." Hu Zhentian said what he thought.

Qiu Chu took out the document and continued: "However, no matter what instrument we use to detect, we can't detect the traces left by the aircraft or aliens at the scene of the incident, and there are only the following two situations. ”

Lin Lin didn't speak, just waited for Qiu Chu's next words.

"The first point is that the other party's level of science and technology is extremely high, and he can catch people without a trace, but in terms of common sense, a civilization of that level will not be interested in earthlings, so this is just a guess."

"The second point is that there are really some demons and monsters and other things, and they are caught, according to our myths, such a thing as coming and going without a trace, and the demons and monsters are very easy to do."

"That's our conclusion about this incident." Qiu Chu put away the documents and looked at Lin Lin: "But no matter what the situation is, we can't find each other's traces at present." ”

"You mean, Jiang Chen, they are very likely to be really dead now?" Lin Lin asked.

Hu Zhentian sighed: "For now, they are more than lucky, and they can already announce their deaths to the outside world." ”

……

At night, outside the barracks.

Lin Lin did not leave the Bu Po Basin, he still didn't want to believe that Jiang Chen was dead, he decided to go to the scene of the incident with the scientific researchers tomorrow to try his luck, maybe they were only in a coma for a short time, and after waking up, they forgot about the equipment?

"I'm the only friend you have on Earth." Lin Lin sighed that if Jiang Chen really died, he would be alone in the real sense of the word.

"The host is detected in the range of crape myrtle cosmic radiation, and the system automatically takes over the task."

【The Mystery of the Bubo Basin】

Quest Tip: Find out the reason for the disappearance of Jiang Chen and the others.

Rewards: 10 attribute points, surface-level mecha coating x1

Mission Duration: 7 days (from the time the mission is picked up)

After the new mission appeared, Lin Lin didn't look at the task reward, but stared at the prompt, the conspicuous word missing was not death, but missing, which means that in the systematic investigation, Jiang Chen and they are still alive.

It's just that the radiation range of the crape myrtle universe, Lin Lin wondered, what does this mean, is it those ghost things last time?

Hydra, the Liu Clan, when the crape myrtle universe appeared in the last mission description, these things almost caused Lin Lin to die on the spot.

"System, what does this task mean? What is crape myrtle cosmic radiation range? Is it those things again? Lin Lin asked.

"According to the system's monitoring, there is the breath of the crape myrtle universe here, so the task is assigned to the crape myrtle universe entry, but no life in the crape myrtle universe has been found so far."

After getting the answer, Lin Lin relieved himself, he didn't want to face that kind of ghost thing again, the hydra that appeared last time was poisonous against the sky, and the Liu clan was invulnerable, and he couldn't even fall to death for thousands of meters, and finally killed him with their own things.

Lin Lin really didn't want to face that crape myrtle universe thing.
