Trevor looked at the shadow projection that was hung up, stretched out his hand in a dissuading gesture, and fell into silence.

At this time, Lai En handed him a contract and a check that had been prepared long ago.

"Professor Anderson! This is our boss's employment contract and fees! Please take a look. If there is no problem, you can sign it!"

Trevor looked at the Wells Fargo check for $10 million that was handed to him, and then looked at the employment contract.

"Can I think about it again?"

Trevor took out his signature pen, hesitated for a while, and then spoke to Ryan.

"Okay, our boss doesn't like to force others to serve us, but New York will be very chaotic during this period. For your safety, you three need to stay in the manor for a while until the boss comes back!"

Ryan said politely to Trevor.

“You are illegally detaining me!”

Trevor's angry eyes almost burst into fire as he stared at Ryan fiercely and accused him.

"No, no, no, you misunderstood. This is just for the safety of you and your family!" Lai En explained with a smile:

“People outside call our boss the underground emperor of New York, which has always been a misunderstanding of our boss!

Our boss is running for city council in New York City recently. We will not do something that violates federal law, such as illegal detention. However, the public security in New York has always been not very good. I am really just worried about your safety, Professor Anderson!"

Trevor heard the hidden threat in Lai En's words, and he snatched the contract from Lai En's hand with some anger.

"Then arrange a place for us to live. Also, I still have classes at the university!"

"Don't worry about that. We have just donated a sum of money to New York University to improve the university's accommodation environment. I'm sure President Hamilton won't mind giving you a month-long vacation!"

Looking at Ryan who was still polite in front of him, Trevor had the urge to go up and punch him, but considering the difference in strength between the two sides, he could only suppress his anger helplessly.

… …

Open the window and you can see the gourd-shaped artificial lake in the yard.

When the breeze blows, the lotus flowers in the lake seem to be swaying.

However, no matter how beautiful the scenery was, Trevor was not in the mood to appreciate it.

"Uncle, should we find a way to leave here?"

Sean opened the door and said to Trevor who was standing by the window.

"Shh!"

Trevor turned around and made a hushing gesture to Sean, pointed inside the room, and then pointed to his own ears, indicating that there might be eavesdropping devices.

"Uncle Trevor, I checked my room. It's safe. I didn't find any surveillance!"

As Sean spoke, he threw himself directly onto the big bed in the room which was worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.

"I've passed the news to Aunt Hannah. Shall we slip away tonight?"

Sean lay on the bed, his voice deliberately lowered a few tones.

"Aunt Hannah and I have just carefully observed that the guards in this manor are very strict! It is difficult to sneak out!"

"No, I'm going to find a chance to slip out tonight and think of a solution. You and your Aunt Hannah stay here and wait for me to find someone to rescue you!"

Trevor looked at the calm artificial lake and made up his mind.

late at night!

The manor was silent except for the occasional splashing sound of fish swimming out of the water.

In the silence, with the dim light of the moon, Trevor quietly opened the window and climbed out.

Taking advantage of the shadow of the windowsill, Trevor carefully lay on the ground, crawled on his stomach, and soon came to the edge of the artificial lake.

The lake surface was sparkling under the moonlight, and the lotus flowers were swaying in the wind.

Trevor looked at the calm lake and for some reason, he felt a little uneasy.

Glancing back at the window, he could see Sean and Hannah in the shadows, peeking out through the crack.

Trevor gritted his teeth, took off his shirt, and silently immersed himself in the water.

Before entering the water, Trevor took a deep breath, dived into the lake, and swam towards the gourd's mouth.

He observed the terrain of the manor. There was a waterway in this artificial lake, located at the gourd mouth, which seemed to lead directly to the outside of the manor.

He planned to avoid the guards by swimming underwater and swim out of the manor.

But Trevor didn't notice that the moonlight shining on the lake did not cast any shadow, as if something in the lake had completely swallowed up the moonlight.

The shimmering light on the lake was not moonlight.

"He went down into the lake!"

In the pavilion by the lake, a woman in black leather clothes leaned against the pillar of the pavilion, staring quietly at the ripples on the lake.

The moonlight shone on her, like a moon goddess in the dark night.

Ryan stood beside her, with several bodyguards in black suits standing behind him.

"There are a batch of skeleton monsters refined by the boss in the lake. Let's give them a taste of pain first!"

"Any news about the werewolves?"

Selina crossed her arms and said, "We found them. They are in the sewers of New York. They are multiplying very fast. There are hundreds of them!"

"Hundreds of heads!" Ryan's eyes lit up. "I think the boss will like this news!"

Crash!

At this moment, the water on the lake surface shook, as if a big fish was struggling violently underwater.

Trevor swam upwards desperately with his arms, and there was something under the water.

Two pale bone claws grabbed his ankles and pulled him underwater.

“Woo woo woo!”

Trevor felt a huge pulling force and saw that there was no hope of floating to the surface. He pulled out a multifunctional military dagger from behind his waist, turned over and tried to cut off the skeleton claw that was pinching his ankle.

When he turned over, Trevor saw countless green flames lighting up at the same time at the bottom of the slightly turbid lake water.

Gudong!

Hundreds of skeletons with green phosphorescent lights flashing in their eyes floated towards him from the bottom of the lake. Even Trevor, who had experienced such grand scenes in the inner world, was so frightened that he choked on the lake water.

Before he could react, a bell suddenly rang from the lake. Trevor felt a black screen in front of his eyes and fainted.

… … …

Isla Nublar

There was a grassland in the center of the island, and several chicken-like dragons were running around on the grassland.

However, this piece of grass, which is the size of two football fields, is surrounded by several layers of barbed wire.

These giant creatures, weighing several tons and looking similar to ostriches, can only move within this fence.

These ancient herbivorous dinosaurs were all equipped with saddles like horses.

After promising to inject capital into the Jurassic Park project, Boss Tang, who became a major shareholder, soon enjoyed different treatment on the island.

After learning that Fox wanted to ride a dinosaur, the island's scientific researchers made a saddle for her and selected a docile Gallimimus for her to ride.

Fox, dressed like a cowboy, holding an old-fashioned revolver in each hand, rode on a chicken-like dragon and waved at Boss Tang while shouting.

As an orphan, Fox was trained to be a qualified assassin since he was a child.

She had been taught from a young age to live for the Holy Loom.

And after the loom was shredded as material and turned into wooden signs by Boss Tang, she felt like she had broken free from the shackles and was able to live for herself.

"I will have someone transfer the initial 50 million US dollars to you,"

Tang Song responded by waving at Fox, and standing on a wire bridge supporting an aerial fence, he watched several staff members lift a cow with a crane and feed it into the guardrail.

Inside the guardrail, a Tyrannosaurus roared into the air.

"However, I need to send a group of guards and finance staff to the island!"

Tang Song looked down at the Tyrannosaurus biting the frightened cattle with its big mouth, puffed on his cigar, and put forward his conditions to Dr. Hammond who was standing nearby.

Dr. Hammond was not surprised by Tang Song's conditions.

Before finding Boss Tang, he had looked for other investors. Anyone with a little common sense could see the potential of Jurassic Park.

But compared to being a white knight,

What more people want is to take over his entire project.

Hammond regarded Jurassic Park as the last effort of his life, so it was naturally impossible for him to hand over the leadership of the project.

Therefore, many investors who were interested in investing in this project ended up leaving unhappily.

He even chose to reject the investment from his old friend Charles Weiland.

Because Charles wanted to develop the dinosaurs on the island into biological weapons, this undoubtedly went against Hammond's original intention of resurrecting these ancient beasts.

Hammond wanted to build a park, a paradise where everyone in the world could come and have close contact with these ancient beasts.

"It's your duty, Tang!" Dr. Hammond was very generous after confirming that Tang Song had no intention of competing for the dominance of this project.

"With only some high-voltage power grids as a barrier, once there is a man-made power outage or a natural disaster, do you think a piece of barbed wire alone can stop this big guy!"

Tang Song smoked a cigar and commented on Dr. Hammond's Jurassic Park, "In a wild park, especially one with carnivorous dinosaurs, safety is of utmost importance!"

"Doctor, your idea is great, but in terms of safety, if an accident happens, the losses will be enough to bankrupt your company!"

"I don't want my investment money to go down the drain!"

"I have a group of professional veterans under my command. To be on the safe side, I will deploy thirty people to this island as security personnel!"

Boss Tang spoke to Hammond about the importance of having armed security.

Hammond nodded in agreement with his words.

At this moment, Tang Song raised his head and saw several helicopters flying towards this side from the distant sky.

"Oh, it should be the person Charles is waiting for!" Hammond followed Tang Song's gaze and looked at the sky. After a long while, he saw a few small black dots on the horizon.

… … …

"I don't understand why we should help a rich man explore a so-called pyramid in Antarctica!"

On the helicopter flying to Nublar Island, the ninja in white was wiping the samurai sword in his hand, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.

Opposite him, a woman with long hair and black-framed glasses was typing data and looking up information on a computer.

"White Ghost, this is the commander's order," the woman adjusted her glasses, glanced at the white-clothed ninja, and added:

"Charles Weyland is not an ordinary rich man. His Weyland Space Company is one of the few private companies that can independently launch satellites. It is also the only company we can find that agrees to cooperate with us!"

"The commander's space-based plan still requires his cooperation!"

White Ghost continued to wipe his samurai sword silently, but from his indifferent look, it could be seen that he did not take the woman's words to heart.

… …

At noon, Charles, who had been recuperating in the villa, appeared at the dining table for a rare occasion, and brought two new faces with him.

"Tang, let me introduce you to two professionals I found. This is Bai Youling and this is Anna. They will also participate in this trip to Antarctica!"

Tang Song put down the knife and fork in his hand and looked at the two people following Charles with some surprise, especially the long-haired beauty wearing black-framed glasses and a black leather jacket.

An "acquaintance"!

The female companion of the baron with whom he had traded shares of the Osborne Group.

The baroness seemed to recognize Tang Song as well, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

She didn't expect to see Tang Song here.

She had instigated the Baron to sell his shares in the Osborne Group, in large part because of the need to raise funds for the Cobra organization.

That's right, she and White Ghost are both members of a mysterious organization called "Cobra". Like most mysterious organizations, the ideal of this "Cobra" is to rule the world.

To this end, the commander of this organization has specially formulated a series of action plans that seem very feasible.

Their choice to help Charles Weiland this time is also part of the organization's plan.

But she didn't expect that she would meet an "acquaintance" here!

Boss Tang simply nodded at the two of them without showing too much familiarity.

Boss Tang was not very interested in this "ordinary person" whom he had only met once.

Tang Song and Charles briefly chatted about the itinerary arrangements for the trip to Antarctica.

Charles was taken back to the sanatorium villa by his private doctor. It seemed that he came out this time just to introduce Bai Youling and Anna to Tang Song.

While eating, Anna kept looking at Boss Tang. She didn't notice that her little action had already aroused the dissatisfaction of someone dressed in cowboy clothes next to her!

… …

"You know him!"

After dinner, Bai Youling approached the Baroness and leaned against her door with a samurai sword in his hands, obviously noticing the eye contact between her and Tang Song.

"The Baron sold his shares in the Osborne Group to him. He knows my identity!"

The Baroness adjusted her glasses.

"I have investigated his identity. This Asian man is a gang leader in New York, but I don't know why he is here!"

"I'll go deal with him!" White Ghost patted the samurai sword in his hand and said lightly.

Taking care of a gang leader is just a piece of cake for him.

"Are you sure you can do it? According to my investigation, the death of Madam Gao from the Hand seems to be related to him!"

"You, the Arashikage Ninja, have been unable to defeat the Hand for hundreds of years!"

"Hmph!" White Ghost flicked his thumb and the samurai sword in his hand came out of its sheath. He swung it backhand and directly cut the solid wooden cabinet beside the door into two.

"The Hand is a thing of the past, and I'm no longer an Arashikage ninja!"

"Wait! We don't know the details of this Tang Song. Before completing the commander's order, please don't meddle in other people's business!"

The Baroness saw White Ghost getting up and really about to go find the Asian, so she quickly stopped him.

… …

Hiss!

A sheltered bay on the island, next to a deep pool.

A group of herbivorous dinosaurs were gathered by the pond to drink water, and there was a rustling sound in the grass.

Several alert Triceratops raised their heads and looked around, but saw nothing.

After they relaxed their vigilance, they continued to drink water with their heads down.

Hiss!

Beside the pond, on a tree so thick that two people could hug it, a black python gradually emerged from its invisible state.

Holding a small dinosaur the size of a wild boar in its mouth, the clever black python stared at the lake water closely.

A Triceratops that was drinking water blinked its eyes and suddenly noticed that its reflection in the water had a hint of red.

It shook its huge head, but before it could react, a bloody shadow jumped out of the pool.

In an instant, only a piece of skin remained of the Triceratops' several-ton body, scattered by the lake.

Several herbivorous dinosaurs were frightened by this strange scene and fled in all directions.

The blood shadow gathered and dispersed, and finally turned into Amelia's appearance. She licked her lips, as if savoring the deliciousness of the big guy she had just eaten.

Her scarlet eyes were cast towards the few Gallinaceous Dragons running at the back, whose bodies were gradually transforming into blood mist. She was just about to pounce on them and feast on them.

Hiss!

A black python poked half of its body out from the treetops and blocked her way.

Amelia licked her lips, staring at the black python with her scarlet eyes, and finally turned into a ball of blood mist and dissipated.

The black python swallowed the little dinosaur in its mouth in two bites, looked at the direction of the villa in the distance, blinked its eyes intelligently, and its body shrank rapidly like a deflated balloon, and finally became the thickness of a particle, flapping its flesh membrane and flying towards the villa.

In the villa, Boss Tang is enjoying horse riding at this moment.

In the daytime, he rode on a horse that looked like a chicken dragon and roared across the grassland...

… … … … has been reviewed… …

While enjoying the pleasure brought by ******, Tang Song's eyes were clear.

The extremely mysterious Yin Sha that absorbs extremely Yin energy is his last insurance. If the evil energy of the underground world cannot be used...
