Start a core cabin

Duanmu Huai didn't know that his song had caused a small trouble somewhere on the other side of the ocean. In fact, he was now thinking about the next tour route and whether to debut overseas... or to reap some success in China first and then go abroad?

After all, the most important thing is mental power. Although distributing songs on the Internet can also gather a lot of mental power, this kind of loose absorption is obviously not as violent as holding a concert. Of course, some audio and video companies have begun to send representatives to contact this mysterious band led by Duanmu Huai, trying to obtain the overseas distribution rights of their works. This makes Duanmu Huai very upset, but it is something he has to deal with.

Therefore, when Duanmu Huai discovered that among these contacts from abroad, there was a letter sent in the name of the "Archaeology Department of the Royal Academy", he was very curious.

This reminded Duanmu Huai of the time when he funded Mary's archaeological team in Mary's world—well, we've gone off topic.

Why are archaeologists looking for themselves?

Out of curiosity, Duanmu Huai opened the letter and began to read it.

The format of the letter was quite formal. The other party claimed to be Professor Williams. According to them, they were currently excavating a ruin, but encountered some difficulties. And accidentally, they found that the songs of Duanmu Huai Band would have a certain influence on the ruins. Therefore, they hoped to contact Duanmu Huai and make some inquiries about this matter.

A video file was also attached to the letter.

"How strange."

After reading the letter, Duanmu Huai frowned. The hymn he sang came from the magic tower world, and the hymn was created by the oil man in that world to maintain the machine soul after genetic manipulation and transformation of humans. It can be said that it is unique to the tower world. Even if this thing will have some impact on the machinery, it should not affect this world.

Out of curiosity, Duanmu Huai clicked on the video material.

This should have been taken with a mobile phone. The first part is an open area that looks messy, with things like gasoline barrels and supply boxes placed next to it, as well as generators and lighting.

Construction site? Excavation site?

The photographer raised his phone and saw a group of people wrapped in thick cotton-padded jackets. Judging from their attire, they must be in a very cold place. They ran forward, shouting, and the person holding the phone followed behind them. The shaking camera was like some kind of low-quality movie recording, which made the viewer dizzy.

However, Duanmu Huai still saw fully armed soldiers around them. Judging from their equipment, they were not soldiers from a certain country, but rather mercenaries.

After a while, the owner of the phone came to the front, and then he excitedly raised his phone and took pictures.

Then, Duanmu Huai saw a heavy door that was slowly opening. The huge gears on it rotated and separated, and the skull in the middle slid to one side. Then the door opened, revealing the dark inside...

The image ends here.

But Duanmu Huai had already seen what he wanted to see.

Thousands of words can be summed up in one sentence, that is...

Damn, why do these oil guys always cause trouble wherever they go?

“It’s a real headache.”

Duanmu Huai reached out his hand to hold his head. He hated the oil men, the damned ones, the heretics who researched alien technology in the name of Omnissiah and did not repent. They always messed things up in the name of research, and then walked away when they couldn't clean it up, leaving the Inquisition to clean up the mess.

Damn bastard.

Duanmu Huai cursed fiercely in his heart, then picked up his phone and dialed the contact number on the letter. Not long after, the call was connected.

"Hello, how are you......"

"You guys went in?"

Duanmu Huai was too lazy to exchange pleasantries with the other party and asked directly. The other party had obviously never experienced Duanmu Huai's direct approach and was a little stunned for a moment, but still answered the question obediently.

"No, no, although the outer door is open, but...ah, sorry, I can't tell you this yet...What I want to know is about your songs and that logo..."

"Where are you now?"

“………………Why are you asking this?”

Duanmu Huai decisively hung up the phone. He was not exaggerating. Not everyone could enter the Mechanicus's territory, even the ruins. Especially these stupid idiots. They would definitely not be able to leave alive.

A moment later, Duanmu Huai's cell phone rang. He answered the call and an old man's voice came from the other end.

"we need to……………"

"Give me the address, or no deal."

Duanmu Huai coldly interrupted the other party's attempt to bargain, and the latter was silent for a moment.

“We can’t decide…”

Duanmu Huai hung up the phone directly and made another call.

"It's me. I'm going to investigate the detailed records of the activities of the Royal Academy's Archaeology Department this year, as well as the places they went...Yes, as soon as possible. I want the results today."

Duanmu Huai hung up the phone, stood up and walked out of the room. Seeing him come out, the four people who were preparing to practice were stunned.

"Xiao Ai?"

"I have something to do and need to go out for a while."

"Where are you going?"

"foreign."

“………………Huh?”

Not to mention Kurokawa Akane, even Toyokawa Shoko and Wakaba Mutsu were stunned by this unexpected answer.

"foreign?"

"Yes, that's right. I'll be away for about half a month."

"Wait, wait, what about the next performance?"

"Pause, and continue with the rest when I come back."

Duanmu Huai had obviously thought about it, and he immediately answered Toyokawa Shoko's question. At the same time, he picked up his phone and made another call.

"Hello, yes, it's me... I need you to get the plane ready in an hour. The route hasn't been determined yet, but you better get it ready. I'm leaving today..."

As he spoke, Duanmu Huai put on his coat and then made a gesture to everyone.

"Then you guys play by yourselves. I have something to do and I'm leaving first."

"……………………"

Watching Duanmu Huai walk out of SPACE and then leave in a car, the others looked at each other in surprise.

"This is the first time I've seen classmate Duanmu so anxious..."

What Toyokawa Shoko said was not wrong. Duanmu Huai always gave people a feeling of being at ease, the kind of person who was not afraid even if the sky fell. So seeing Duanmu Huai suddenly become so serious, it really felt a little uncomfortable.

"……………………"

Heichuan Akane didn't say anything. She could probably guess why Duanmu Huai suddenly left. Of course, Heichuan Akane didn't know the specific situation, but she could at least guess that it was related to Duanmu Huai's identity as a judge.

But abroad? Why abroad?

Kurokawa Akane looked at Freya and Noren who were standing beside him in ghost form, and the latter just shook his head - although as ghosts, they could pass through walls and eavesdrop at will, Duanmu Huai could also see them.

These two people would not be stupid enough to anger Duanmu Huai.

"Anyway, I'd better call the others first."

Kurokawa Akane silently took out his cell phone. Seeing that Duanmu Huai was in such a hurry, he probably didn't say hello to other people. He decided to do it himself.

It turns out that money is omnipotent.

In Mary's world, Duanmu Huai had also sponsored archaeological activities as a sponsor, so he was very clear about this part of the process. It was not difficult to find the whereabouts of these guys, and the reason was very simple. Archaeology requires a lot of equipment, and these equipment are usually rented. Unless someone like Duanmu Huai has too much money to spend, he usually finds a way to rent it and then bring it over.

Looking at the clothes the people in the video are wearing, as well as the names and shipping companies on the containers, Duanmu Huai can easily find out where these people have gone if he wants to!

This was indeed the case. When Duanmu Huai was on the way to the airport, several people from the Archaeology Department had already been transferred.

And Duanmu Huai saw at a glance...Antarctica.

Damn, it’s Antarctica again.

This damn place is full of talented people, either aliens or the Old Ones, and now even the Mechanicus has gotten involved!

Forget it, Antarctica is Antarctica! I have to go there too, right?

When Duanmu Huai flew all the way to Antarctica and landed at the port, the people here had already helped her find out the whereabouts of the archaeological team. According to them, the archaeological team set out a month ago, saying that they were going to conduct scientific research near the whaling station near Antarctica. They knew the location of the whaling station.

Although they tried to contact each other after learning about Duanmu Huai’s news, they were unable to do so, perhaps due to the bad weather…

Oh haha.

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai wanted to laugh.

No, you can't laugh yet. You haven't seen the body yet, and you can't pop champagne at halftime.

Maybe the weather was really bad. Of course, it would be great if it was what he thought. After all, as an inquisitor, Duanmu Huai would never let anyone who saw the remains of the Mechanicus go back alive. That was why he rushed here as quickly as possible. On the one hand, he wanted to clean up the mess, and on the other hand, of course, he wanted to silence them.

After determining the opponent's approximate location, Duanmu Huai set out again and came to an abandoned whaling station on the edge of the Antarctic continent.

“Wuwuwu————!”

Duanmu Huai arrived at the camp on a ski sled and soon discovered that there was no one there. Although the whaling station's buildings were largely intact and the equipment was still there, there was no sign of a single person nearby, and no sign of a living person.

Duanmu Huai, who jumped out of the car, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw this scene.

It would be good if they were all dead, so you don't have to do it yourself.

Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai retracted his gaze and then looked at a huge pit in the center of the whaling station—this thing was obviously not formed naturally.

In other words, the remains of the Mechanicus are inside?

Looking at the hole, Duanmu Huai snorted coldly and walked over.

He wanted to see what kind of trouble these damn oil men had caused him!
