Perhaps it was because the concentration of Honkai energy was too high, even in this uninhabited ghost town, many Honkai beasts appeared. When Xia Chuanhu was preparing lessons for the children, he also learned about the types of Honkai beasts in detail.
"Are they all breakthrough-level Honkai beasts and... death warriors?"
Unlike the Honkai beasts which are silicon-based life forms, the Death Soldiers can only be transformed through humans. The appearance of the Death Soldiers here means that the people who originally lived here have been infected by the Honkai energy and become Death Soldiers.
(Is it related to the continuous disappearance of people? The possibility of human experimentation cannot be ruled out, but it may just be an accident.)
"...Anyway, they are just some poor people."
"Let the wind blow away, the phantoms of the past that linger in the world."
call------!
A strong wind suddenly blew through the silent ghost town. The wind speed was not particularly fast, nor was it particularly strong, but in this gust of wind, both the Honkai beasts and the dead soldiers disappeared silently on the spot.
It seemed as if Xiachuan Hu was the only one on the street from the beginning. It was so empty that it made people feel a little cold.
24. Please stop building infrastructure underground!
Throughout the ages, when it comes to "hiding things", the first place that many people think of is definitely "underground".
From burying things in the ground to building huge underground tombs to fill them with burial objects, no matter what era or what class, the things done are similar, the only difference is the scale.
In fact, Xiachuanhu really hates this kind of infrastructure construction underground.
It’s too roundabout!
That was his ancient experience before he went to Chaldea. It should be a few years after the end of the Fifth Holy Grail War. He was called to Egypt by the next dean of the Atlas Academy, Shion Eltnam Sokalis, in the hope that he could assist in an archaeological work at the pyramids.
That was the time that made Xia Chuanhu hate those bastards who were doing underground infrastructure. Not only did they dig so deep underground, but they also designed a winding maze and prepared countless traps. It was really annoying!
Finally, he was so angry that he got lost inside that he forced a path to the ground! If he had not left the pyramid on the surface, he might have demolished part of the pyramid. Afterwards, the clock tower sent a warning letter.
Of course, he didn't even read the content and threw it into the trash as soon as he got it.
After saying so much, what Xia Chuanhu wanted to express was——
"Why do some people here also like to build underground infrastructure?"
Somewhere in the Ural Mountains.
Because he sensed a suspicious space underground during the investigation, Xia Chuanhu ran directly into the mountains in the sensed direction, but as he walked, he felt a very familiar feeling - it was okay to be in the desert, but why were there people doing infrastructure construction in the mountains!
As an elf who is closely related to the natural environment and is equivalent to the incarnation of the planet, Xia Chuanhu feels that humans really do not respect the natural environment. The mountains and the land have evolved naturally for countless years, but humans dig and excavate them as they please, and even insist on playing MC in them.
If he wasn't afraid that there might be clues to the serial disappearances of people here, he really wanted to make his fantasy come true and delete this underground base!
(However, being able to dig a base more than 100 meters deep in the Ural Mountains... in this world, it should not be an ordinary force, right? And judging from the passage of time, this base should have been in use all the time.)
Destiny? Or anti-entropy?
Anyway, it should be impossible for the country to do so, and it certainly cannot be a local force.
The important thing is——
"Heraldry..."
Looking at the wall next to him that was obviously made of some metal, Xiachuanhu touched the emblem on the wall - an Ouroboros with its tail in its mouth and a ring-shaped body.
This is definitely not graffiti. It should be the logo of an organization, just like the capital "N" in Tianming. But if it is an organization that uses Ouroboros as its logo and has the ability to carve a mountain base in the Ural Mountains... Xia Chuanhu doesn't remember any individual who meets the requirements in the Tianming data he has read.
As for his own memory...
(No reaction. This mark cannot stimulate my memories. In terms of importance, isn’t it on the same level as special individuals like Kiana?)
For people like Kiana, Siegfried, and Otto, Xiachuan Hu could immediately remember things about them when he saw them and learned their names. When he heard the name Anti-Entropy, he also remembered a small part of the related memories, but this logo did not remind him of anything.
Is it less important than Destiny and Anti-Entropy? Or is it that such a symbol is not enough to touch the relevant memories?
"Ouroboros...snake...could it be related to the information Cocolia mentioned yesterday?"
——Continuous disappearance of people
——Baba Yaga
--snake
——Myself who came to the collapsed world inexplicably
Xia Chuanhu always felt that there should be some connection here. His intuition had never been wrong and its accuracy had been 100% so far.
(Tsk, if I were at Type-Moon, I could just ask Gaia and Alaya for the answer, or at least ask Lingyi. Why would I have to rack my brains here? Why didn’t I think of bringing a Holy Grail when I went out? There are so many in Chaldea anyway.)
How about making one now?
"......Forget it, let's not pinch it."
After thinking it over carefully, Xia Chuanhu gave up this bold idea. There was nothing wrong with the Holy Grail itself, but it would cause all kinds of problems, so for safety reasons, he should not be a problem maker.
At worst, you can just spend more time investigating.
"clatter!"
Just as Xia Chuanhu was thinking this, the sound of something falling to the ground was suddenly caught by his ears.
(Hmm? Something is happening?)
Relying on his spatial perception, Xia Chuanhu had already grasped the entire picture of the base when he walked into the underground base. From the detailed floor routes to all the guard arrangements, he remembered them all in his mind and could move back and forth smoothly even with his eyes closed.
Of course, this doesn't stop him from disliking the guy who built this base.
In his perception, Xia Chuanhu clearly saw that there was a life form deep in the base, but the place where the life form was located was a little strange, and his perception ability was affected, so he could not clearly perceive the appearance, structure and physical condition of the life form.
Now that the sound has been made...
(Hmm, I sense that the life form has started to move, so I should go meet it. If you want to understand a place, you really need to find a local.)
Thinking of this, Xia Chuanhu slightly increased his speed.
If someone uses a surveillance system at this time to try to capture Xiachuanhu's figure, they would have to adjust the speed to at least 0.1 times to capture Xiachuanhu.
Although simulating the core of the Herrscher of Reason and directly opening the portal is also a way, it would consume twice the power. For Xia Chuanhu, which ability he uses depends entirely on which ability is more convenient to use, or which one he thinks of first.
The bad thing about having too many cards in hand is that it is not good.
After a while——
"Excuse me, I'm coming in."
At the door of the deepest room at the bottom of the base.
Hearing the noise coming from the door, the figure next to the operating table in the laboratory-like space seemed to be frightened, and immediately shivered, looking at Xia Chuanhu with a nervous and fearful expression.
"Who, who? Don't... don't scare me, okay?"
She was a gray-haired woman who looked about the same age as Xiachuan Hu. Her hair was not too long and hung down to her shoulders. She was wearing a white robe. It was not known whether it was stained with some liquid or was too small, but the curves of her delicate body were slightly outlined under the robe.
Xia Chuanhu looked her up and down and said, "Hmm~~~ I am a detective who came to visit here - I can call myself that now. And I don't mean to scare you, ma'am... May I ask your name?"
"Name...My name is...eh?"
The girl held her head, and her beautiful ruby eyes showed great confusion.
"My name is...what is it?"
25. My name is Vita?
While on an investigation, he accidentally met a beautiful woman who had lost her memory in a mysterious underground base.
To be honest, Xia Chuanhu has encountered similar situations at least a hundred times.
Therefore, being experienced, he immediately simulated the subsequent handling methods in his mind.
"Amnesia... Ma'am?"
Coming in front of the girl, Xia Chuanhu asked in the softest tone possible: "It's okay if you can't remember. If it makes you feel uncomfortable, you don't have to think about it."
"...I, I understand, Mr. Detective."
The white-robed girl still had a trace of nervousness and uneasiness on her face. When she saw Xia Chuanhu coming over, she quickly kept some distance from him. Her whole body exuded the aura of not wanting to get close to strangers.
Seeing her like this, Xia Chuanhu knew that he wouldn't be able to get closer to her in a short time.
"Um, please...where is this place?" the girl in white robe suddenly asked.
"Huh? You don't recognize this place? Isn't this your place?"
Xia Chuanhu asked back.
When he asked this, the girl in white robe looked around, then walked around the operating table and ran to the container in the center of the room that connected the ceiling and the floor, which was like the test tube that Bianca had been in before. She looked around the container and then walked around the room.
"...I guess this isn't my place...right?"
After walking around, the girl said uncertainly.
"It feels like... this is a place I've been to before, but... I shouldn't have been to this place before?"
"Then how did you get here?"
"Uh... I remember I was..." The girl lifted her chin and thought, "I seemed to be going out for a walk, and then... the ground shook? I think that's it? I... I fell down, hit something and passed out, and then... when I woke up, I found myself here."
Did you wake up and find yourself in a completely unfamiliar place?
(This situation looks frighteningly familiar.)
Because he had experienced too many similar situations, Xia Chuanhu didn't react at all, he just stared at the girl in white robe.
(…I’m not lying. Every word I say is from the heart.)
Lies will never work on Xiachuanhu.
He had seen countless lies and had his own way of identifying lies. He had also compared them with Morgan and Altria Caster. The method he figured out was not much different from the fairy eyes held by fairies in terms of [seeing through lies and truth], and the accuracy was 100%.
Therefore, he could conclude that the girl did not tell any lies, and this also meant that she could not provide any information to Xiachuan Hu at this stage.
"You still have to do it yourself to have enough food and clothing."
Xia Chuanhu placed his hand on the operating table, and a magic circuit flashed across his hand. The light like electric light jumped randomly a few times, and then all the screens on the operating table lit up, and all the information and data stored in them were displayed on the screen one by one.
Seeing this, the girl in white robe couldn't help but move a little closer with curiosity: "You can use this? This doesn't look like something that can be used casually, right?"
"I have my own methods. I can hack into a planet-level computer even if it's in front of me. Also, please don't touch anything here. Since you don't remember anything, please stand aside. After I finish dealing with things here, I will take you to a place where you can rest. You should understand the concept of [base] or [sanctuary], right?"
"Yeah, I know this. It's a place to hide from disasters, right?"
The girl in white robe nodded a few times: "Although I don't remember anything, I still remember this kind of knowledge."
(Not all memories are lost. Well~~~ Human memories are classified into different areas, so it’s not hard to understand——Hmm? Wait, this information is......)
The information sent back from the operating table made Xia Chuanhu stunned for a moment.
After a slight pause, Xia Chuanhu withdrew his hand and looked at the girl beside him.
"I see, you and I are in the same situation..."
If the information obtained from the console... no, it should be said that the information obtained from the terminal connected to some kind of super information database is correct, then Xiachuan Hu and the girl in front of him should indeed be people in the same situation.
"Um... I don't really understand what you're talking about, Mr. Detective." The girl gave a confused dry laugh, "Are we... similar in any way?"
"I was just talking about our experiences. From the information I got, we are both wanderers who drifted from the [original world] to [this world] and are temporarily unable to return home - Miss Vita."
Vita?
The name startled the girl slightly.
"Vita? Is that my name?"
"At least that's what the database says - Vita, you are a resident, or researcher, of a certain World Bubble that fell from the existence called the Imaginary Number Tree and fell into the Quantum Sea. This room is your laboratory. You mainly conduct research on the Quantum Sea, World Bubbles, the Eigenworld, and Honkai Energy."
That's what the information base says.
"But the world bubble you lived in was destroyed more than a month ago. According to the observation report automatically recorded in your institute, two months and nine days ago, a tsunami suddenly occurred in the quantum sea, affecting a large number of world bubbles, and a large number of world bubbles burst and disappeared."
"Your world bubble was also one of the affected individuals, but because it was not affected until a month after the [tsunami] occurred, there was plenty of time for preparation. In the end, you activated the space transfer device you developed yourself, and [floated] from the quantum sea to the intrinsic world with the entire laboratory."
"Due to the imperfection of technology, there has been a certain degree of deviation in time and space. You actually came to this world the day before yesterday. And because of the above reasons, you have fallen into a coma for an indeterminate period of time."
That's what the information base says.
Xia Chuanhu smiled slightly: "So, it seems that I came at the right time, just when you woke up. If you were to go out with your current amnesia, who knows what bad things would happen to you, Miss Vita."
