Chapter 267 Don’t cause trouble for yourself

Behind the scenes, there are inextricably linked with the Rune military, and even a considerable part of the annual allocation is provided from cooperation projects with the military.

Therefore, Carteris is well aware of the military and technological competition between countries behind a harmonious atmosphere.He didn't think it would really be a high-end resort...

Sure enough, as I continued reading, the information mentioned that there were traces of a blockade by Zhao Kingdom's military forces around the incident site. At that time, a fleet was cruising on the sea only more than 20 kilometers away from the incident site.

In addition, it can be found through satellite observation that many streets around the incident site on Sulu Island have been blocked by the military and prohibited from passing.

However, after 11:03 a.m. on the 29th, the situation in the black zone gradually eased. Satellites observed that military personnel entered the area later, but the blockade was not lifted...

For this reason, there are many more speculations in the data...

Carteris quickly read through the information in his hand. After putting down the tablet, he thought for a moment. From his perspective, he was more inclined to suspect that Zhao State was developing some kind of special weapon. However, he soon realized Here comes the problem.

After the "Pandiya Ocean Falling Star Incident" occurred that year, the countries on the earth developed a great sense of urgency. In order to unify the power of the entire human world and under the righteousness of "maintaining the continuation of human civilization", in the following years Through a series of "treaties", "alliances" and "agreements", more detailed regulations and restrictions have been made on the confrontational behavior between countries.These treaties and agreements are also the cornerstone of the Human Alliance.

Among them is the "Agreement to Prohibit the Testing of Weapons of Mass Destruction in the Earth's Sphere". The scope of management of this agreement covers a variety of weapons forms, including nuclear weapons, meteorological weapons and large-scale biological and chemical weapons. In order to increase the number of countries in the military field mutual trust, which is an extremely important basic agreement.

If it is later proven that the Zhao Empire really violated the agreement and carried out a test of meteorological weapons, it would undoubtedly be a very serious political incident.

Sitting in his current position, Carteris is naturally not the kind of researcher who turns a deaf ear to what is happening outside the window. He is quite aware of the trouble here.

After thinking about it, he did not express his opinion directly, but asked Robert on the side: "What did the Secret Intelligence Service say?"

"You know, they have always been very tight-lipped and haven't revealed much about the situation..." Robert spread his hands and said, "However, I feel that they attach great importance to this. In addition, they also mentioned that if there is any media contact, They asked us to interview us about this incident and hope that we will deal with it cautiously..."

"React with caution..." Carteris can naturally hear the subtext here, which is just to kick the ball. It seems that the intelligence department really doesn't want this matter to get serious.

"Maybe, they know something..." Carteris thought for a while and made up his mind. There might be some tricks here that he didn't know about, but in any case, it had little to do with him, and there was no need to get himself involved.

"In this way, if there are still media who come to ask questions, you can find two eloquent people to argue with them, and try to argue with them from the perspective of natural phenomena..."

"I'm afraid the media won't be satisfied with this answer..."

"They have nothing to do with us...could it also affect our funding?"

"Don't cause trouble for yourself, Robert." Carteris finally said with meaning.

"I understand, Mr. Carteris."

"Very well, so be it."

承和37年西历2016年2月11日10:19安曼尼度假区

At this time, the Ammani Resort has been completely blocked by the military, and tourists in the resort have also been taken into custody by the military according to their nationality.Of course, it’s euphemistically called a medical exam.

For these tourists, the official reason is that there was an abnormal gas leakage from the Bindale volcano, causing heavy fog and severe widespread coma. After preliminary judgment by experts, it should be caused by volcanic geological activities. As for the tourists present Whether there will be any physical damage to the staff and local residents needs to be continued to be observed.

For people in Ammani Resort, generally speaking, they still believe the official explanation. Most people's first reaction is to ask to go home.After all, everyone is a little afraid of toxic gases, especially toxic gases that can make them coma for three days.As for those who died, poisoning by volcanic gases was also blamed.

Similarly, the blockade of the entire Ammani resort area was not lifted immediately. Instead, the entire area was classified as a long-term military restricted area. The reason was that the leakage of toxic gases had not completely ended. This area has relatively high risks for ordinary people. Big danger, so entry is prohibited.

The response to public opinion was also carried out at the same time. At 11:10 a.m. on the 00th, a public opinion response group composed of local government, experts, and military representatives held a press conference to respond to the media’s questions. Of course, the overall tone remained the same. It is the leakage of toxic gases from volcanoes.

As for a reporter who mentioned that many people had observed unusual celestial phenomena in the area, experts were able to explain away the situation with the meteorological theory of clouds and fog...

Although some people on the Internet are still skeptical about this, at least on the surface, most media still use the official explanation.

That afternoon, everyone in the resort and surrounding villages was evacuated to the temporary reception center at the Sulu Naval Base for further physical examination and a week of psychological counseling.

At this point, the entire resort area and surrounding villages were completely taken over by the military.Immediately, a large number of professional vehicles and equipment began to enter.

....................................

........................

Dozens of soldiers wearing closed protective exoskeletons, holding weapons, were searching in a battle formation in the indigenous village next to the Ammani resort.

In their team, two "Heavy Armored Type 4" fire support vehicles were slowly advancing.

If there are people familiar with military operations present, they will definitely notice that the actions of these soldiers are not at all like disaster relief in the colony, but more like a search mission in enemy-occupied areas.

They are elite soldiers affiliated with the Marine Corps. Before performing a mission, their superiors repeatedly reminded them through mission briefings not to take it lightly. If an abnormal situation is discovered, they can open fire without asking for instructions.

Although I don't quite understand why a simple mission like disaster relief can be carried out so dangerously, but since the superiors gave such instructions, it was probably not without purpose, and all the soldiers subconsciously raised their vigilance.

Chapter 268 Search

It had been nearly half an hour since they entered the village, and they had almost finished searching all the houses in the village. Except for some more highly decomposed corpses, they found nothing of value.

..............................

"Sir, we found a cave, and there are some suspected religious objects around it." Commander Deng Shu's helmet came with a report from his subordinates.

"Stand where you are, mark the location." Deng Shu ordered, and immediately, a new location beacon appeared in his terrain computer.

About five minutes later, Deng Shu arrived at the location of the beacon, followed by a fire support vehicle and more than a dozen soldiers.

At this time, a combat team was guarding the entrance of the cave. When the captain saw Deng Shu arriving, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute and introduce the situation.

Deng Shu carefully observed the notes and wooden signs hanging at the entrance of the cave. These objects were engraved with many charms with local characteristics.

Before coming here, it was mentioned in the mission briefing that if you find anything related to "sacrifice", "talismans", "occultism", "religion" and the like, you need to be careful.

Although the briefing did not say what exactly he should be careful about, Deng Shu decided to release two micro-drone into the cave first to conduct terrain scanning, map the terrain inside the cave and conduct preliminary investigation.

Soon, the relevant situation in the cave began to be transmitted, and no danger was found. However, the drone made some discoveries deep in the cave...

After confirmation, Deng Shu ordered the team to start advancing into the cave.

The depths of the cave are pitch black without any lights, so soldiers will set up lighting and monitoring equipment at regular intervals.

Apart from some frightened bats flying around, there were no other accidents along the way.

About a quarter of an hour later, they arrived at the depths of the cave. There was a huge cave, and there was an altar-like building in the cave.

Judging from the style of this altar, it should have been carved over many years on the basis of a natural cave. There are faint traces of smoke and fire on the surrounding cave walls, as well as some murals and other patterns.

What alarmed these soldiers the most was the large number of corpses on the altar. At this time, some soldiers came forward to check the clothes and physical characteristics of these people. A report soon came from Deng Shu's helmet. These people initially Judging, it seems that most of them are local villagers.

Their wrists and ankles were cut open, and dark red blood flowed on the altar, and then flowed into the center of the altar through some hidden grooves on the altar.At this time, there was still a layer of amber-colored plasma accumulated in the altar.

"It's really heartbreaking..." Deng Shu came to the altar, carefully observed the surrounding situation, and then directed his subordinates to take pictures of everything and send it back to the rear.

Soon, these soldiers discovered that there were a large number of traces suspected of being fought in the cave.

At the same time, they also began to photograph the surrounding murals and sent them back to the rear as data.

Soon, Deng Shu received the latest order from his superiors, asking them to set up defenses on the spot and keep all items in the cave as they were. Relevant experts would soon come to conduct further research.

....................................

........................

While Deng Shu and others were conducting various inspections in the cave, in the dense forest not far from the Bindale volcano, another team of soldiers was carefully searching the surroundings.

Not far from them, a tilt-rotor jet was slowly circling, and two unmanned fire support platforms were hovering around it, ready to provide them with strong fire support at any time depending on the situation.

"Follow the predetermined plan, take the target place as the center, and gradually expand the search scope. Don't miss anything!"

"Yes!"

"Report, we found many man-made traces at our location."

“Collect information well and don’t miss any details.”

"Yes!"

"Report, we found two people dressed as tourists..."

The ones found by the soldiers were Wei Chengguang and Zhu Yingwei before they could go far.In fact, it was impossible for the two of them, who were exhausted, to follow the original path and go back through the dense forest. This was really beyond their physical capabilities.

Therefore, after discussing in advance, the two decided to repair it on the spot first, then turn onto the main road to see if they could get a taxi or something, and then they could leave here by car.Anyway, the biggest goal has been achieved.

However, they had just finished repairing it, and before they could find the road, they were discovered by soldiers who were performing a search mission.

For these soldiers equipped with thermal imaging cameras, it is not too difficult to find them in the dense forest.

After a brief inquiry, Wei Chengguang and Zhu Yingwei naturally did not admit that they were here to "seek immortals." They just said that they were two hiking enthusiasts who got lost while walking through the dense forest.

However, after that, they also admitted that they saw something "beyond imagination".

As a result, the two were sent by plane to the rear base by the soldiers who had found the treasure.

"You mean, the old man you saw caught the monster with a chain made of thunder and lightning?"

"You've all asked so many times...yes, I'm pretty sure."

"Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?"

"I'm pretty sure I'm sane... Of course, if I heard someone say that, I would think they were crazy, but the fact is, my friends and I actually saw it."

"Okay Mr. Wei, I'm sorry, because this is more important, so we have to confirm again."

"Can you tell us more about the clothes of the two people you saw?"

"Didn't I say it before? Both of them are in Tsing Yi. Their clothes look similar to the Taoist priests in the palace. Well, they should be made of linen. I feel it is natural, not chemical fiber. The young man also wears Jian, I can't see their faces clearly. I've told you before that it's strange. I can roughly tell their ages, but I just can't see their faces clearly. It's like...well...there's a layer of fog between them. .”

"We drew the pattern according to what you said before. Take a look and see if it is like this..."

"Hey... you guys are really efficient, let me see..."

"Yes... it's about the same, just at the cuffs, it needs to be a little wider..."

Chapter 269

"Okay, let's move on to the next question. You said you saw them taking away a statue. I have a photo here. Can you tell it apart and see if it's this one?"

"The sky was too dark, and the light in the dense forest was poor. To be honest, I didn't see much clearly... eh? It really does look a bit like..."

"Can you be sure?"

"I'm not sure about this, but it does look a bit similar, maybe..."

"By the way, what kind of statue is this? It looks weird..."

"This is related to state secrets. Please forgive us for not revealing it..."

"Hey... I said you don't really have any shelters or anything like that. Let me tell you, I am a running group enthusiast..."

"Okay, Mr. Wei, let's move on to the next question. Can you repeat what the two people you heard said?"

"Let me think about it... what the young man said was: 'Teacher, have you finished dealing with it?' Then the old man replied: 'We will deal with it temporarily first, and then take it back to suppress it.' Then the young man said again He said: 'These cultists are really crazy and they almost had a big problem this time.'"

"Then they left and just disappeared."

"Okay, do you think they found you?"

"I'm not sure about this...but...I feel like the old man glanced at me intentionally or unintentionally, but I'm not sure. Maybe it's my illusion."

"Okay, then, let's talk about the feeling when you two enter the fog..."

........................

...............

After a detailed interrogation, the officer finally stood up and shook hands with Wei Chengguang, thus ending the interrogation.

Wei Chengguang also let out a sigh of relief. He was now wearing an unmarked military uniform. His body and hair had been cleaned up, and he had obviously been washed and cleaned.

After he and Zhu Yingwei were brought back to the warship, they were separated. After a series of physical examinations, cleaning and other procedures, Wei Chengguang had lunch on the ship, and then was taken to various questions by an officer. .

Of course, the two of them had expected this process. In fact, before coming here, the two of them had already reconciled their confessions. It was impossible not to say anything. That would be easy to leak. The best way to hide the secret , that is, not telling all the truth and not telling any lies.In fact, the only thing the two of them really needed to hide was the possibility of being accepted as a disciple by an "immortal". For the rest, they had to tell the truth.

In fact, the intensity of the official review was beyond Wei Chengguang's expectation. In just over two hours, he had already been questioned twice. It was said to be an inquiry, but in fact it was almost like an interrogation.

The angles of inquiry were different, but Wei Chengguang still noticed that the key points that the other party paid attention to were actually not difficult to judge. They obviously had an extraordinary interest in the two mysterious people with supernatural abilities, and for the so-called "cultists" "I am also quite interested in what I said.

And at the end, the officer even spent a lot of time asking Wei Chengguang about his hobbies and his understanding of Xuanmen. It was obvious that Wei Chengguang's previous experience of searching for masters everywhere had been uncovered by them. .

Wei Chengguang even discovered that this officer knew him better than he expected. It was obvious that he had detailed information about himself.
