Chapter 33 Investigation
Port of Ajaccio, Corsica.
The ferry rocked slightly, leaving a shallow ripple of water on the pier of the port of Ajaccio. The noise of the hull gradually weakened as the anchor chain was tightened, and the cabin door slowly opened, with a slight creak and seagulls.
The screams were intertwined. The passengers on the boat walked down sparsely, and only a few of them looked a little lonely.
One of the young men looked particularly eye-catching. His blond hair shone in the sun, perfectly echoing his golden eyes. He was wearing a brown formal suit, neat and neat, forming an interesting look with the Panama hat on his head.
contrast. When he walked out of the cabin, his golden eyes began to wander around the port, trying to look at this strange place.
"Has the cloud and fog reached this place?"
Xia Xiu's nose twitched slightly. Every breath he took now was filled with a subtle sense of moisture, as if the air was filled with tiny water droplets and gently brushed his lungs.
"Currently, there are no Mimu or pollution phenomena around. It seems that this is just an anomaly in the celestial phenomena. This large-scale celestial anomaly is most likely related to Dagon, Haihe, or the so-called [Son of God].
The main thing now is that we are still not sure whether these clouds are really harmless to the surrounding population. [Adam], does the local administration have any clues?"
Xia Xiu asked [Adam] in his mind. He and the doctor set up the management bureau not just to let them have free time. To a certain extent, their job was to assist him in completing the trivial preliminary search and investigation work.
[It is still under investigation. The regional administration has dispatched an elite investigation team. They have discovered an ancient building suspected to be the ruins of the Mecha in the high mountains of South Corsica——]
[At the same time, the personnel of the Administration have been conducting social-level investigations locally to ensure whether the high-risk Meme virus is lurking in the clouds in the Corsica area. Each [Executive Officer] is equipped with D3 psychotropic agents as amnestic agents.
Currently, the head of the regional administration (inspector) is in the small town of Seneca, 40 kilometers away from your area. She is leading multiple local administration teams to conduct high-risk investigations in Ajaccio.
If necessary, I can dispatch them now to interview you. At the same time, I have synchronized the backup of the Corsica Administration's internal investigation records and itinerary to your watch to facilitate your data inquiry.]
"Turn on operator sharing, let me go there myself." Xia Xiu replied to [Adam] in his mind.
[Okay, address sharing has been turned on.]
A panoramic regional map of Corsica appeared on Xia Xiu's retina. His location on the map was marked as a green triangle. Forty kilometers away, there were many small blue dots and a green
of small dots.
The small blue dot naturally represents the [Executive Officer] of the Administration, while the small green dot is the member of the Kingdom of Heaven lineage and the [Ombudsman].
After Xia Xiu determined his position, he raised his feet and stepped forward. A twisted Möbius belt appeared under his feet, and then the space became distorted, and he disappeared from the spot.
**********
The town of Ajaccio Seneca.
[Recording begins.]
[Special containment buildings have been built around the Corsica diffusion zone. The cover-up measures declared to the outside world are "gas pollutant leaks" because researchers in the containment room currently do not know how to effectively contain the special cloud. Due to the amorphous shape of the anomaly
Characteristics and highly uncertain anomalous properties, [Executive Officers] dispatched to the outskirts of Corsica must have a cognitive impedance coefficient of [Good] or above. A set of large independent [Reality Distortion Reality Anchors] and engineering
The team is placed in a temporary containment area to ensure that the boundary field generator located outside the object can be activated at all times.]
[Horizon visibility: Dense fog (indicating extremely poor visibility, very limited field of view, usually less than 100 meters or 100 yards).]
[This anomaly has had a serious social impact on Corsica. At the same time, deep diver hybrids are suspected to exist in Ajaccio Seneca. Please investigate the high-risk phenomenon in the area as soon as possible——]
[Adam]'s voice echoed in the minds of the A6 execution team. As the leader of the three-person [executive officer] team, Ione was walking in Seneca holding a special lighting lantern in her hand, wearing gloves on her hands.
At this moment, the village of Seneca is bathed in thick fog, a hazy scene. The usually busy and pleasant town looks quiet and mysterious at this moment, as if wrapped in a soft veil. The thick fog is like a white curtain,
It descended slowly, enveloping the buildings, trees and streets of the town. The scenery in the distance became blurred and lost its clarity, leaving only vague outlines. Even the familiar street corners and buildings became blurry at this moment.
Strange and confusing.
The thick fog brings a quiet atmosphere to the town, as if time has slowed down here. The usually bustling street markets are empty, and the shop window glass is covered with fog droplets.
The streets of the small town gradually fade away in the fog, as if leading to an unknown world. The outlines of the trees are looming, and only the nearby trunks and branches can be seen clearly. Some lonely lampposts are looming in the fog, emitting a faint light.
, barely illuminates the way forward.
Ioni's lantern illuminated the world within a radius of five meters, and her two teammates followed her closely.
"Corsica is located near the coast of the Sea of Chaos. This is the marginal management zone of the Veil. Thaumatologists who go to sea often wander around nearby, leaving behind many extraordinary deeds. If we want to investigate one by one, we can only use Nina
Your [Thaumaturge entry]. My [Blue Lantern] can be twisted to meet the prerequisites of a Thaumaturgy entry, which can just meet the required ocean conditions in your [Side Line System], but this
It may make you feel painful, after all, your ability is to let you avoid natural enemies instead of looking for them."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Ioni turned around and said apologetically to the girl in black uniform who looked weak and petite.
"No...it doesn't matter. As long as we can help Ms. Teresa and her colleagues in the Administration, fear can be overcome. And I have D1 psychotropic drugs that can be used to suppress fear."
Nina subconsciously pulled the high collar to cover the scales on her neck, which were covered with various nerve hair cells. These cells were nested in small holes or tubes and distributed along the sides of the scales and the head.
[Lateral line system] is a unique sensory organ system in fish and some amphibians. It is used to detect small disturbances and fluctuations in water flow, helping animals to detect changes in their surrounding environment. In the thaumaturization entry
After being fixed, its ability will be significantly improved, but the restriction that it can only be used in the ocean still exists, and Ioni's [Blue Lantern] can forcefully fill in a prerequisite.
"It should be around here. I can feel the strange smell: every breath I take is filled with moist, as if living air, and every breath seems to be swallowing a lump of tangible fear. Isn't this right?
It's just fog anymore - it's a vast ocean of living things, made up of countless nameless creatures, and every particle seems to be a malicious eye, staring at you, ready to attack when you least expect it."
"This feeling is similar to the feeling Haiji gave me, except that they are more crazy and evil than Haiji..." Nina stroked the scales on her neck and murmured palely. The feeling from the scales made her
She recalled the bad memories filled with rotten flesh and blood mixed together.
She was rescued from the slave ship by the angel Teresa of Heaven. As one of the few who survived the assimilation of Mimu, she attaches great importance to Teresa and the current administration. It was the administration that gave her
The inhibitor also gave her the mission of [Executive Officer], and the Administration has many colleagues who have suffered the same tragic experiences as her, such as the captain Ioanni in front of her.
Ione is a [out-of-control person]. Her hands are infected by a special kind of demonic meme. The hands under the gloves are not hands in the human sense, but sharp claws covered with black scales. Ione
She is a gray man who smuggled over from the Far East. She was originally a bounty hunter near Corsica. Later, when she heard about the establishment of the Heavenly Kingdom Collapse Management Bureau, she chose to join the Bureau without saying a word.
All of Ioni's files were handled by Ms. Teresa. Without going through the complicated steps, Ioni was registered as the [Executive Officer] of the Authority. Nina admired Ioni very much because in addition to her work, she could also do other things.
He eats and lives normally with other [Executive Officers], takes the initiative to learn combat skills that he has not yet mastered, abides by the rules and regulations of the Authority more strictly than others, and spends all his leisure time in the open database provided by [Adam].
After she came to the Bureau for a period of time, regardless of the internalized knowledge, the improvement in combat skills and comprehensive physical fitness test scores was enough to be astonishing. I heard that Ms. Teresa had applied for a pedigree of the Kingdom of Heaven genealogy for her.
Qualified for certification.
Most of these [Executive Officers] use their own characteristics to accomplish thaumaturgy [entry transformation]. The [entries] they fix carry a heavy risk of distortion, and if they can be included in the genealogy of the Kingdom of Heaven, they can obtain Yi
With the protection of Dian, they will not be afraid of the violence of EVE particles and the risk of ARad field distortion emitted by [Ether Ocean].
"I'm sorry, Nina, for reminding you of bad memories, but we must quickly find out the deep diver hybrids here. If they are allowed to expand [the forbidden triple oath] arbitrarily, the entire Corsica island may be destroyed in an instant.
They will all become the sacrifice ground and breeding ground for the Deep Diver Father God." Ioni said with a serious face.
"I know...it's right near the front, in the most remote corner of the fishing village." Nina pointed to the most remote corner ahead along the [lateral line system], a small wooden house along the coast.
"Sister Nina, do you want to take a break? Just let me and the captain go together." George, who had goat's horns on his head and a face full of freckles, said to Nina with concern.
"No need..., I have other water entries as assistants. I can't be left out of the team." Nina shook her head and rejected George's proposal.
"Then let's go. As long as we finish the hunting quickly, all problems will be solved instantly." Ioni ordered decisively.
"good."
"clear."
The three-person team began to move quickly towards the cabin on the coast, and soon they reached their destination.
In an area shrouded in clouds and mist, the blurry outline gradually revealed the figure of a small wooden house.
Every piece of dark brown wood seems to have been eroded by time and unknown forces. It is covered with strange lines. These lines are looming in the thick fog, as if there is life crawling on it. Although it does not look too strange on the surface.
, but there seems to be a dark secret hidden behind every window, as if there are invisible eyes watching everything in every corner.
The fog blurs the details of the wooden house, making it impossible to distinguish its true form, and the smoke released by its crooked chimney intersects with the surrounding fog, forming an unnatural landscape.
Wooden walls, pointed roofs, and gradually aging window frames. The apparently ordinary buildings give people an ominous and depressing atmosphere, as if this house does not belong to this time and space, but comes from some forbidden place.
Summoned from the dimension.
At this moment, the scales on Nina's neck felt a suffocating feeling like the deep sea. The air was filled with an indescribable smell, both sweet and smelly, as if it was the smell of ancient carrion mixed with fresh blood. Every breath she took
, one can feel the stench entering the lungs, but there is also a strange numbness that makes it impossible to stop breathing. There are constant whispers in the ears, vague yet specific murmurs, like ancient spells, or
The ghosts trapped in the clouds and mist recount their unfortunate fate.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! There seem to be countless pairs of eyes hidden in the fog. Every time I walk, I feel like there are countless gazes projected from all directions. Every drop of water seems to be watching silently, as if wanting to absorb it.
Your life. The ground is shaking slightly under your feet. Every step you take is walking on the edge of unknown and terror. You don't know what will be dragged into the abyss at the next moment.
Nina's eyes were staring at the wooden house in the fog, the fear and confusion in her eyes were like two burning flames. Her pupils were constricted, revealing the confusion of being unable to understand and accept the scene in front of her. Cold sweat fell from her forehead, moist.
Her pale cheeks were stained, and the corners of her mouth trembled slightly, as if she was resisting the nightmare in front of her.
"Nina...,Nina, Nina!!!"
Suddenly, a sharp scolding broke the dead silence, harsh and urgent, and Ioni was anxiously calling out to Nina, who was suddenly motionless and showed fear.
Nina's body trembled suddenly, and she was pulled back from the illusion deep in her soul by the voice. Her eyes widened and she quickly glanced around, as if to confirm that she was back in the real world.
Dong dong dong——
The sound of her heartbeat buzzed in her ears, and her palms were covered with cold sweat. She swallowed in fear and looked at the door again, her eyes full of fear and uneasiness.
"It's in there...it's in there..." The sequelae of the terrifying delirium made it difficult for Nina to turn around.
Upon seeing this, Ioni immediately cut off the link between [Ghost Lantern] and Nina. The gloves on her hands began to bulge slightly, and the sharp claws covered by the gloves began to enter the battlefield and become active, while George on the side passed through
[Adam] opened his authority and extracted two specially crafted bolt guns from the [Heaven Arsenal].
The two of them stared closely at the wooden door that began to rotate.
Zhizhi——
