Chapter 558: Item 56 [Depth Charge]
"One thing came to mind."
Someone raised his hand and proposed, can you find a way to remind Jiang Xiao who the god he is facing?
"If you let him know that the enemy he faces is one of the old rulers of the Cthulhu Mythos: Hastauruk, the source of the plague, will the strange world have a way to deal with it?"
The atmosphere in the conference room was dull for a while, and everyone's faces were full of helplessness and worry.
"Of course we know that, but we've tried to deliver key messages before, and the keywords have been blocked."
Someone replied, with a hint of weakness in his tone.
"Perhaps, we can put it another way and use homophonic words or something?"
A voice rang out suddenly, breaking everyone's mindset.
All eyes were on the speaker.
He is a scholar of weird linguistics, usually reticent, but always gives some unique insights when he speaks.
"Homonyms?"
Wang Ju repeated suspiciously, a glint of thought flashing in his eyes.
"Yes, we can try to bypass the block by using words that sound similar, but are written differently."
The scholar explained.
"For example, we can use 'Hastaux' instead of 'Hastrük', which sounds similar, but are actually two completely different words."
The atmosphere in the conference room was instantly lively.
The crowd began to actively discuss, trying to find more homophonic words as a way to bypass the block.
"It's worth trying."
"With this method, we can try to get in touch with Jiang Xiao and them again and inform them of their real enemies."
Everyone's eyes met in the conference room, and finally fell on Wang Ju, they needed a decision.
Wang Ju took a deep breath and nodded, he knew the importance of this decision.
"We can't risk using Jiang Xiao for experiments, his reminders are too precious, we need to find the chosen ones in other countries to test first."
His words were echoed by everyone, after all, every reminder could be about the future of humanity.
"I'm going to get in touch!"
In the face of the big right and wrong, uh, perhaps, when it comes to their own interests, these people are quite united.
Soon after, through a series of sophisticated messaging and encrypted communications, they were able to reach several Chosen ones from other countries.
After securing the communication, they began the test.
After some discussion, they decided to be as concise as possible at the beginning.
[Please try to guess which book or person we want to describe the character you are from, and see if we can bypass the block.] 】
The Chosen One of the other party received this peculiar request, and although he was a little confused, he still agreed.
They use homonyms like "Hathtaoluk", "Harthauluk", "Kayseru Myth", "Beginning Myth", etc., in place of their real names.
Try to get the Chosen One to understand the message about the Old Dominator.
Belch.
The good news is that not all words are blocked.
The bad news is that the "Cayseru Myth" doesn't make the Chosen One understand that what they are trying to convey is the Cthulhu Mythos.
Still, the people in the room breathed a sigh of relief, at the very least, it meant that their plan was doable.
"No problem! Then we can find more Chosen One to experiment, and after repeated confirmation, we will finally contact Jiang Xiao. ”
Just when they were experimenting with the control variable method.
Jiang Xiao also began to prepare.
The first is for the sectors that discharge wastewater.
Everyone's faces were gloomy as water.
The crowd first convened the head of the wastewater treatment department and the technicians for an emergency meeting.
At the meeting, the upper echelons bluntly pointed out the seriousness of the problem and demanded that everyone be held accountable for it.
From department heads to ordinary staff, as long as they were involved in this incident, they were investigated without exception.
From top to bottom, sitting in prison is the lightest sentence, and it is also a verdict on the spot!
Of course, before that, they will be severely investigated.
This disaster has become irreparable, and no one can afford to lose face.
"Now, let's think about what to do with this so-called god?"
Jiang Xiao, who had been silent, spoke.
"It's not like we've been in nothing during this time, at least we know now that the god took revenge on humanity because of the call of the High Priest of the Sea."
Jiang Xiao said slowly, every word seemed to be well thought out.
"The bell must be tied to the bell, and I suggest you find a way to dive to the bottom of the sea, find the high priest, and communicate with them."
The people in the room looked at each other, and they knew it might be a good idea.
But it is unknown who the High Priest of the Sea is, whether they can find him in the vast sea, and whether they can convince him.
"If possible, we certainly hope that all this can be resolved peacefully."
Jiang Xiao continued.
"Of course, if we can't repair the relationship between humanity and the ocean, then we can only choose the last resort - kill him and bleed a river!"
These words were like a hammer that smashed into the hearts of everyone present.
They all understood that once they embarked on the path of killing, it would mean that there was no room for mitigation in this catastrophe.
In the following time, the top of the world began intense preparations.
They contacted scholars, historians, and even occult researchers everywhere in the hope of finding clues about the High Priest of the Sea.
And B2 also asked Jiang Xiao out privately and handed him a bracelet.
"Huh? Project? ”
"Well, item 56, [depth charge]."
Jiang Xiao sneered and did not take what B2 handed over.
"Funny, you mean you want me into the ocean? What about dreaming? The people who are going to die are the humans of your strange world, right? ”
B2's expression is also embarrassed, but it's still a positive color.
"It's not like you're going to help us right now, uh, maybe you can hear about the effects of this project first?"
"You say."
