Crossing the Atlantic, from Norway back to the Lighthouse Country, to Massachusetts, it took Halpier only two hours, but after a day of fighting and searching, it was already night.

Professor Harvey and Luke returned to the University of U-M together, and the smooth flight of Halpierre and Luke's telekinesis made the flight experience very good.

Luke continued to ask a few questions about Mi-Mi.

"So you're not specifically targeting the Old Gods in your investigation, but investigating whatever clues you find?"

"yes, do you think I'd like to face the Old Gods head-on? It's a terrible feeling to drop san at every turn. Unfortunately, for a long time, the teachers and students of U-M University seem to have some kind of special connection with the old gods, whether it is archaeological research, travel, or visiting relatives and friends, and finally they can always meet the old gods or the old gods. ”

The old professor smiled helplessly, "It's like some kind of curse." ”

"However, it has been much better for a while, and the old gods are no longer in this world—I don't mean sleeping like before, but leaving this world completely."

Ah, I know that! What did the old man do, sort the garbage and throw it in the garbage dump.

Professor Harvey was obviously in a good mood, and this time he didn't encounter a single bed bug with the smell of the old gods, and it seemed that life at Migan was finally getting better, and he was able to start his archaeological career with peace of mind.

While talking, the two of them had already arrived at the office building of the Department of Archaeology. A professor who looked like he was going to class with a few books in his hand saw him and asked in surprise, "Professor Harvey, didn't you go out today to investigate the Norwegian mountain monster incident?" I remember that you applied for the permission to use the 'big globe', and no one else used it today. ”

As he spoke, his face changed: "It's broken, it can't be that the seal escaped through the big globe!" ”

Seeing that he was about to go back to warn, Professor Harvey hurriedly grabbed him: "Don't worry, it's me, it's me." But things are going well, and now it's done, and Luke and I have just returned from Norway. ”

"I remember Norway where you only went this morning."

"Yes, but I have a good assistant." Professor Harvey raised his chin at Luke, "Or rather, I'm the assistant." ”

The younger professor noticed Luke, and he held out his hand to introduce himself, "Fernand Ashley, professor of ancient history, once confronted the great race with Pierce and his sons. ”

Luke shook his hand, and felt that the University of Mega was really talented, and on the way back, he had heard Professor Harvey talk about the great race, like the ancients who made the Great Globe, a race that lived in a distant other dimension and was countless times stronger than the human race.

He complimented, "It was a great journey." ”

Harvey on the side ruthlessly demolished him: "You just followed old Pierce to make soy sauce, and basically didn't do anything." Pierce Sr. and Pierce Jr. are both very low-key, and you brag about it every day. ”

"You!" Fernand, who pretended to be a failure, glared at Harvey helplessly, and clipped the book under his armpit again: "I'm in a hurry to go to class, goodbye!" ”

Xavi looked at Fernand's embarrassed back and smiled silently: "Don't care, he's just this temper, but, overall, he's a reliable person." ”

Luke couldn't help but laugh and walked back to his office with the old professor.

Professor Harvey put away the full amount of materials on the table, and Luke sat down in the empty seat next to him and asked, "Is there anything else interesting?" I can't wait to continue protecting the world. ”

The old professor smiled bitterly: "Young people are energetic, and old people like us can't slow down at all if they don't take a few days off when they go out." ”

He pointed to the back of the window and said, "Next to it is the Information Building, where there is a special office, responsible for counting strange information from all over the world, you can go and ask, and I will say hello over there." ”

After speaking, he picked up the phone, skillfully dialed the number, and after two tones, the voice on the other side of the phone came: "Message, who?" ”

"Harvey Walter, one of my students is going to look it up in a moment."

"Yes, no problem."

Professor Harvey put down the phone, took out a blank piece of A4 paper, wrote on it - "Information Inquiry, Harvey Walter", and handed it to Luke.

"Thank you very much!" Luke took the piece of paper, thanked the old professor, and left him to rest in his office, and walked out of the history department and towards the information building.

It is a low, two-storey building that looks unpretentious and even a little shabby.

The door opened, and Luke walked in, following the house number, easily finding the "Information Office" office. A somewhat middle-aged man saw Luke come in and greeted him warmly: "It's Professor Harvey's student, my name is Quinn Mena, and I'm on duty at the information desk today." Come and sit, what do you want to know? ”

Luke handed over the A4 paper in his hand, looked at the surrounding layout curiously, and asked, "Has anything strange happened recently?" ”

"Something unusual?" Quinn was interested: "The last thing we need in our information department is the oddity. ”

He casually took a stack of printed papers, which looked like some statistical information, and after flipping through them a few times, he read: "A man in Florida accidentally found a nuclear bomb lost by the military while diving, but he didn't report it, but took the nuclear bomb home and transformed it into a nuclear power generation device to supply his own electricity." ”

"Oh, this news is the first time I've seen it, it's a bit outrageous, right?" Quinn covered his forehead and said, "Actually, the news in our information office is basically like this. ”

After speaking, he also read out the advice given by the intelligence collector: "It is recommended to hire an electrician in the school, and teach nuclear power related knowledge part-time by the way." ”

So that's how all these outrageous teachers at U-M came here?

Quinn put the information aside and read the next one: "There were massive power outages in Washington and neighboring states at the same time, and the blackouts lasted for a total of seven minutes, causing twenty-three car accidents, eleven medical accidents, and more than a hundred other accidents. In total, 59 people were killed and more than 300 injured. ”

After reading the information, he read out the collector's remarks as usual: "It is estimated that it is caused by the illegal use of high-power electrical appliances, and it is recommended to strictly inspect the dormitories of major colleges and universities and carry out a large-scale rectification action for safe production." (PS: Again, I strongly recommend hiring that Florida guy who does his own nuclear power, maybe he can build a standalone nuclear power plant for the school, so we don't have to be bothered by electricity bills and power outages.) ）”

The two pieces of information were collected by one person, right, and this is also linked

Luke was a little speechless.

He stopped Quinn from reading the next news and asked, "Is there any information about the transcendent monster?" In particular, there are many evils that need to be eliminated. ”

"This one! You said it earlier. Quinn put down the stack of materials in his hand, turned to another desk and picked up a few thin pieces of paper.

"Combat and exploratory intelligence are all here, sorted by urgency and threat."

He took out the first one and glanced at the watchhead: "4 stars for urgency, 2 stars for threat." Then he explained to Luke: "It is estimated that the matter has already happened, and no one from all sides has stopped it, but the impact is not great." ”

"Oh!" He looked at the specific situation and suddenly realized: "No wonder the threat level is low, it occurs in the Arctic Circle, far from human society. ”

After a cursory glance, Quinn began to describe in detail: "The Arctic Circle, a mining company called Cerberus, where they have a Far North mine, working. ”

"I received information today that something happened in the mine over there. You know, these guys who mine in the Arctic always dig up something surprise. He handed the brief piece of information to Luke, and continued, "Last year, there were some xenomorph monsters that could parasitize the human body and evolve according to the host's genes, which we called Xenomorphs. In the end, I heard that it was captured by a certain beast school, and I don't know if they have found an effective means of control. ”

Luke looked at the paper in his hand, and there were only some basic introductions other than those that Quinn had explained.

Cerberus Mining has a total of 100 registered employees in the Arctic mines, intelligence indicates that all of them are dead, and a few satellite photos of the monster in a flash of shadow.

The monster's looks. Even in the eyes of the well-informed Luke, he is enough to be a ghost.

Judging by the slightly blurry quality of the photo, it looks like an oversized humanoid monster made up of hundreds of legs and feet. Although it is said to be humanoid, its torso and limbs are all made of hands and feet, and no matter what angle it is taken, the photos are densely packed with limbs that are dense enough to faint from dense phobias.

Hey~

Disgusting!

Intelligence indicates that the incident happened yesterday, the photo was taken at noon today, and as of the time of the photo, the monster was still roaming around the camp near the mine.

The specific enemy, the clear location, is Luke's favorite opponent, go directly, go and do it, kill it and leave, perfect!

And Luke hasn't been to the North Pole yet, which is the equivalent of going on a tour.

Win twice!

The decision is yours!

After a brief thank-you, Luke returned to Professor Harvey with the information leaflet.

After briefly describing the incident, he was a little embarrassed and said, "Professor. I'd like to borrow your school's 'big globe', but I don't know if it's possible. ”

From here, it will take at least a few hours to fly to the North Pole. Having experienced the convenience of spatial teleportation, he obviously didn't want to fly over slowly.

The old professor nodded with a smile: "Of course you can, if you are idle, you are willing to take the initiative to solve unrelated monsters, and we should provide a little convenience." ”

Just do it!

In case it's a step late, the monster is captured and studied by some other school of interest, and the experience is lost.

After all, a stitching monster like this should be good research material in the eyes of some necromancers or Frankenstein.

The old professor personally took Luke to the mysterious building again, took him to the first floor of the "Great Globe", briefly explained how to use it, and then withdrew, leaving Luke to wait for teleportation in the room by himself.

"Well, touch the place you want to go with your fingertips, and it will be transferred directly, which is really convenient."

Luke looked at the approximate latitude and longitude provided in the information sheet, found the corresponding location on the "big globe", and reached out and pressed it.

The familiar sense of teleportation, by the time Luke reacted, the surroundings had changed from a closed hut to an endless field of glaciers and snow, but it was night, and everything was not clear.

The glaciers of the Arctic are formed by the gradual compression of snow, and take on a variety of strange shapes under the power of nature. The surface of the earth is covered with frozen soil, and in the hazy night, a cold and desolate scene is formed.

Despite the extreme cold temperatures and the freezing cold wind, Luke's extraordinary constitution and the lava shield around him kept him at a good temperature, and he didn't feel sick at all from the low temperature.

He flew into the sky, and although there were no natural landmarks in the Arctic that he could quickly locate, there were mines and camps. If you find the camp, you will find the enemy.

There is no nearby.,The first time I used the "big globe",I'm not very proficient.,The deviation of the teleportation is still a bit big.,It seems that you have to look for it in the distance.。

Looking at this matter from afar, he doesn't have to do it, he has to look at Halpiere.

Luke summoned the beast, which had been completely reduced to a mount, and stood on its back, allowing it to fly high while using its vision to find human structures that were alien to the glacier.

Even at night, Halpiere's line of sight is extremely far away. Ten minutes later, through Halpier's vision, Luke finally found the camp.

Not only were there a lot of rubbish and stains from human activity, but there were also more visible dark red blood stains that were scattered throughout the camp.

In addition, there are a large number of Arctic animals, such as polar bears, arctic foxes, seals, etc., but all of them have turned into corpses and look like they have been killed by monsters.

I just don't know why so many animals gather here.

However, the monster is still very picky, and only occupies the limbs of humans, so the carcasses of the animals are relatively intact.

It's just that the monster in the photo didn't appear, and I don't know if someone got into the camp or if it got into the camp, in a building.

Luke urged his mount, and Halpierre flew straight over.

A few minutes later, arrive at the scene.

Aside from the deep mines, there are only two buildings where this camp can hide.

Luke glanced roughly down the mine, and saw that there was no movement, and his mental power did not detect any signs of life, so he turned his attention to the two low buildings.

The first building, Luke stopped at the door, and after the spiritual exploration was not ambushed, he pushed the door directly.

There was a pungent smell of blood, as if a massacre had just taken place. There are also traces of blood dripping, as well as human footprints, as if it happened not long ago.

Luke followed the trails and finally found traces of the living thing.
