"Professor Liu, this is..."
A middle-aged official surnamed Meng explained to Professor Liu: "The state attaches great importance to the loss of the archaeological team, so the nearby garrison was specially transferred to assist our rescue team."
"Oh, I see… "
Professor Liu frowned, obviously he had noticed something wrong.
And the others on the scene are not fools. Once the army intervenes in an incident, it also shows the importance of the incident in a disguised form!
"Could it be that this archaeological expedition still hides some deeper secrets?"
Various speculations kept flashing in Weizard's mind.
"Since the military is involved, the confidence of this rescue operation is even greater!"
Professor Liu briefly chatted with the official surnamed Meng, and led Wei Zede and Lin Pengyi into the main cave of Gaxian Cave.
Passing the slightly triangular opening, a group of three people came to the dark and deep cave.
Weizard looked at the environment in the cave as he walked. This natural cave is more than 90 meters long from north to south, 28 meters wide from east to west, and the highest point of the dome is almost 20 meters above the ground.
A natural stone slab about 3 meters square is located in the center of the main cave. The bottom of it is supported by several large stones. At first glance, it is known that this is artificially carved. The walls of the cave are very flat, and there are a lot of moss growing on the ground. Walking on it, people will feel very slippery on the soles of their feet.
[Main tasks: 1. Follow the person (Lin Pengyi) to Alito Town, which has been completed. 】
【The task log is being updated...】
[... The players (4 players) have assembled, and the character logo has been turned on. 】
[Main task: 2. Enter the secret cave and search for the lost archeological team members; during the task, the player must ensure the personal safety of Professor Liu Kai'an and Captain Liu Ru, otherwise the task will fail. 】
At this moment, several pieces of system information popped up in Weizard's vision.
"Character logo?"
Weizard, who heard this statement for the first time, paused slightly before his eyes fell on the people directly in front of him.
"Nima... This character logo is too conspicuous!"
Under Weizard's gaze, the names of three people in the crowd in front of him suddenly appeared above their heads, composed of white light.
Without even thinking about it, Weizard was sure that he also had this kind of'character logo' on his own head.
"Well, this is actually good..."
Weizard mumbled: "At least let me know that I am not crossing, but in a mission scene."
"Wei Sanye, are you talking to me?"
Lin Peng, who was walking by Weizard, asked in confusion, "What's good?"
"Ha! Nothing!"
Weizard slapped haha, "I mean this place is good, look, how cool it is..."
With that said, Weizard walked towards the location of the other three players.
"This spooky ghost place...is it cool?"
Lin Pengyi was shivered by the cool breeze in the cave. He quickly walked a few steps and followed.
"Wei Xiaoning is nicknamed'Wei Sanye', and the game is codenamed'The Wizard'."
"Qi Wei, Jianghu is nicknamed'Xiaohuarong', and the game code is'Castor'."
"Qi Meng, the rivers and lakes are nicknamed'Sai Zhang Fei', and the game code is'Polux'."
"Li Daoyi, Jianghu is nicknamed "Xuanmen Yihe", and the game is codenamed "Taoist"."
The four players who participated in this mission gathered together in Gaxian Cave.
"This character has a good logo..."
A young man in a blue Taoist robe smiled and said, "It saves everyone introducing each other!"
"I hope everyone can cooperate happily in this mission."
Weizard also nodded politely.
"This mission is difficult..."
"It's the highest in the beginner's stage."
The twin brothers said each word tacitly:
"The Defender'Castor'..."
"Batterer'Polux'..."
"We are the'Gemini Combination'!!!"
These two twins, who were full of "Second-Second" aura, made Wei Zede and the Taoist speechless for a while.
"..."
"Hehe, a sharp combination!"
Weizard gave a dry laugh. He clearly saw that the corners of the'Taoist''s mouth twitched slightly.
"These two guys... don't know if they are reliable?"
Just as a few players just took their heads, a loud voice rang.
"Commander Li, please order the soldiers to seal off the entrance!"
"Our rescue team is here for a meeting. Some things need to be ventilated with everyone before the rescue..."
After hearing the reputation, only a middle-aged strong man with a Chinese character face and wearing a camouflage uniform was giving orders.
"Yes!"
With a loud answer, an officer immediately followed his instructions and ordered the soldiers to deploy defenses at the entrance of the cave.
After everything was arranged, the middle-aged strong man continued: "Comrades! Let me introduce you first. I am Zheng Hongzhi of the National Security Agency. I will lead the rescue operation."
"Everyone can stand here, which shows that you are all comrades with good thinking and quality!"
"But before the rescue operation starts, I still want to remind everyone that this operation is very dangerous and uncertain! If anyone intends to withdraw, please raise your hand."
After being silent for a while, Zheng Hongzhi of the National Security Bureau saw that everyone was doing nothing. He once again sternly said: "It's not a shame to withdraw at this time! Once I announce the action plan, if someone wants to withdraw again, then don't It will be that simple..."
"I... My body... feels a little uncomfortable..."
A pale young man lowered his head slightly and raised his right hand.
"This... I don't need to accompany the team to rescue... I should avoid it, haha, avoid it!"
The official surnamed Meng who greeted Professor Liu said with a grudging smile while wiping his sweat.
Seeing someone taking the lead, several people also expressed their intention to withdraw from this rescue operation.
Zheng Hongzhi waved his hand and asked the soldiers to take them out.
"Okay! If no one quits, then I will tell you the details of this rescue operation."
After a pause, Zheng Hongzhi continued: "Rescue is only one aspect. Our ultimate goal is to continue the suspended scientific expedition of "White Fox"!"
Having said this, Zheng Hongzhi warned in an unusually harsh tone: "What I want to say next is the country’s top secret! Comrades, I hope you can strictly abide by the confidentiality discipline. You should not say a word to the outside world. disclose!"
In an instant, the atmosphere became suppressed.
"According to the deciphering of the ancient sheepskin scrolls found in Lop Nur, we have preliminarily determined that the'Da Xianbei Mountain' refers to an ancient underground city... And based on the investigation, comparison and research of various data, we believe that it is stored in this city It is a treasure of the country—the jade seal of the country."
"This is impossible!"
"absurd!"
"..."
Hearing this, bursts of noisy noise broke out in the rescue team.
A middle-aged man with the appearance of a scholar retorted: "Captain Zheng, what you said is unbelievable! This...this is too absurd..."
"According to historical records: On January 11, 937 AD, the Hedong Jiedu of the Later Tang Dynasty sent Shi Jingtan with the Khitan army to attack Luoyang. The Emperor Li Congke of the late Tang Dynasty carried the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom and boarded the Xuanwu Tower to himself. Burned and died, the whereabouts of the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom is unknown. ."
"But what we are aiming for in this scientific expedition is:'Da Xianbei Mountain', the origin of the Tuoba Xianbei clan in the Northern Wei Dynasty!"
"No matter in terms of time, location, or connection, the two have nothing to do with each other! Absurd! It's so absurd!"
Qi Wei (Castor) asked in a low voice, "Didn't the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom be buried with Genghis Khan? Why is it different from what this guy said?"
Qi Meng (Polux) replied in an annoyed manner: "I'm not good at history, don't you know? Now the official history, the unofficial history, and the pseudo-history have been mixed together. They are not specialized in history. Who can say Clear?"
Hearing the dialogue between the two, Weizard and the Taoist breathed a sigh of relief.
"These two guys, their brains are pretty good... Much better than their first impression!"
As the twins were whispering, Professor Liu also questioned: "Captain Zheng, the matter of'passing the country's jade seal' is really incredible! Why are you so sure that this happened?"
