As soon as Xia Lei came out of the hatch, Saimu stood in the corridor. His expression was strange, but he was not nervous.
.dt
Xia Lei was a little confused, "What happened?"
"Boss, come here." Saimu said.
Xia Lei followed Saimu onto the deck. His Iraqi captain and a few sailors were standing at the bow of the ship, and they were discussing something. The captain looked ahead with his binoculars, and a sailor was comparing something with a map spread out on the deck. This scene is like an ancient voyage. The captain and sailors lost in the sea are looking for islands where they can land for supplies.
Xia Lei suddenly thought of the Crystal Skull, and he thought to himself: "Could it be that the Crystal Skull disabled the ship's instruments, so the captain and sailors used primitive methods to confirm the route?"
Sure enough, when he just guessed this, the captain pointed to the sea in front of the bow and said: "What a ghost! We are obviously going to Port Said, Egypt, but we... we actually went to Cyprus!"
Cyprus, an island country in the Mediterranean Sea. It is 90 degrees off from Port Said, where the cargo ship is going.
Xia Lei already knew the reason, but he couldn't let the captain and sailors of the ship know. He thought for a moment and said to Saimu: "Tell your captain friend and let him go to Cyprus. I will bear all his losses." , and I will give him another 1 million US dollars."
"Okay, I'll go talk to him." Saimu went to negotiate with the captain.
Not only did Xia Lei bear all the losses, he also gave an additional US$1 million. There is nothing the captain of this cargo ship cannot agree to, because even if he loses his job, the $1 million will be enough for him to live happily for the rest of his life.
After Saimu negotiated with the captain, the captain immediately asked his helmsman to keep the wrong course and continue sailing to Cyprus. He also hugged Xia Lei and praised his generosity.
This is actually not a matter of generosity or ungenerosity, but problems that can be solved with money are not a problem here in Xia Lei.
Going to Egypt was the original plan, and now it’s not impossible to go to Cyprus, it’s just that the time spent at sea will be a little longer.
After solving the problem, Xia Lei left the deck.
Saimu followed Xia Lei into the corridor and whispered: "Boss, what's going on?"
Xia Lei said: "It's the crystal skull, but you can't let your captain friend know."
Sai was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "I understand."
Xia Lei said: "As for the situation in the sky, if there are any Israeli planes, please tell me immediately."
Saimu said: "Then I will go up to the deck and watch."
"Go." Xia Lei entered his cabin.
Kyoko Tsukino was still guarding his equipment bag in his cabin. When Ray returned to the cabin so quickly, a smile suddenly appeared on her face. She asked casually, "What happened?"
"The cargo ship veered off course. The destination we went to was not Port Said, Egypt, but Cyprus," Xia Lei said.
"Ah?" Tsukino Kyoko looked surprised, "How could it deviate so much? Even if you don't use navigation instruments and use your eyes to identify the route, it's impossible to deviate to Cyprus, right?"
Indeed, for a course error of 90 degrees, the helmsman must at least turn on the full rudder, but it is impossible for any qualified helmsman to turn on the full rudder on a straight course. This means that in fact, before the owner of the cargo ship discovered the problem, the cargo ship had already begun to deviate from the course. The Crystal Skull's interference with instruments probably started the moment he boarded the ship.
Xia Lei pointed to the equipment bag and said, "It's it, it caused the instrument to malfunction."
"Crystal skull?"
Xia Lei nodded, "Yes, it can also... cause people to lose their memory. Qian Jun just encountered it. He chatted with me for a long time, but he actually forgot everything that happened in at least an hour. "
"Are you OK?"
"I'm fine." Xia Lei thought for a moment, "Help me find some lead material. I'll make a box to put it in. Otherwise, assuming we get to Cyprus and get on the plane, maybe it will let the plane fly to Go to America.”
"I'll go look for it." Tsukino Kyoko followed and walked out the door.
Xia Lei was the only one left in the cabin. He took out the crystal skull again and placed it on the bed.
The crystal skull quietly releases its crystal-like luster, which is crystal clear and has amazing beauty.
Xia Lei, talk to it, "You are just a skull. How can you interfere with modern instruments and equipment? Or even control the instruments to point people in the wrong direction? Do you have a soul?"
Xia Lei touched it with his hand and felt everything about it. It is not a true crystal, it is denser and harder than crystal. Its external features show everywhere that it is a real skull. Whose skull is it? What are the ingredients that make it up? These two questions resurfaced in his mind, but he couldn't find the answers.
After a while, Xia Lei took out the satellite phone and dialed Liang Siyao's number.
Toot toot, toot toot…
The call was answered quickly.
Xia Lei said: "Siyao, it's me..."
"Breathe... breathe... breathe..." A strange voice came from the satellite phone.
Xia Lei's heart suddenly rose to his throat, and he was extremely nervous, "Is it you? What do you want to do!"
This was not the first time he heard this voice. The voice coming from the satellite phone was too much like the voice of the man in black robe. This voice was always heard before the man in black robe spoke. When he heard such a voice, his first reaction was that the men in black robes had kidnapped Liang Siyao and were preparing to use Liang Siyao to blackmail him!
"Breathe... breathe... breathe..." The voice on the satellite phone was still like this, and no one spoke.
"Speak! What do you want? Come at me!" Xia Lei said angrily.
"Breathe... breathe... breathe..." The voice on the satellite phone was still the same.
Xia Lei frowned immediately. He stopped trying to get the other person to speak, and he stopped talking. He just listened quietly.
"Breathe... breathe... breathe..." This weird voice on the satellite phone seems to never stop.
Xia Lei took off the multi-function watch on his wrist. He was surprised to find that one minute had passed, but the strange sound on the satellite phone continued. He suddenly realized that it was not the men in black robes who kidnapped Liang Siyao and then used Liang Siyao's satellite phone to negotiate with him, but that the satellite phone was interfered by the crystal skull!
The purpose of Xia Lei's call to Liang Siyao was to test the crystal skull's interference with communication equipment. Now that the test results were out, the results made him feel a little creepy.
Xia Lei then tried to call Tsukino Kyoko's satellite phone. The results came out quickly. Even on the same ship, he could not contact Tsukino Kyoko.
"Strange, in the video shot by the American archaeological expert George, George was standing on the hillside talking to Professor Mark. He was not disturbed at that time. Why is he being disturbed now?" Xia Lei secretly asked in his heart: "Could it be that Professor Mark was Standing outside the cave? But that's not right. Qianjun said that it can deceive the detection equipment and the human brain and point the person to the wrong person. Israel has explored that area many times but failed to find the correct location. This proves It covers a large area, how can you avoid interference just by standing outside the cave? Could it be... could it really have a mind? Or even a soul?"
It's a crazy idea that a crystal skull possesses a mind or even a soul. But apart from using this conjecture to explain the call between George and Professor Mark, Xia Lei could not find any other reason to explain it. And this conjecture also shocked him.
"Boss! It's not good!" Saimu's voice suddenly came from the corridor outside the cabin door, along with his oppressive footsteps.
Xia Lei quickly put the crystal skull into his equipment bag, then opened the door and walked out, "What happened again?"
"We were discovered by the Israelis!" Saimu said anxiously: "A drone came from the sky with missiles hanging on it!"
Xia Lei couldn't hold his breath any longer, and he hurried onto the deck.
A Heron 2 UAV is flying here from the direction of Israel, and the distance is already very close. He clearly understood that the air-to-ground missile on the Heron 2 UAV was not an ordinary air-to-ground missile, but the latest "Ares" air-to-ground missile developed by the Israel Military Industries Company, which has the capability of long-range precision strike. Ability. Of course, the Ares air-to-surface missiles mounted on this Heron 2 UAV are all UAV versions, not the 500kg type carried by fighter jets. Its approximate weight should be about one hundred kilograms, and it carries four Ares air-to-surface missiles. But even if it is not the heavyweight God of War carried by fighter jets, but a lightweight God of War carried by drones, this cargo ship cannot bear one!
It would be nice if there was a shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missile at this time, but due to the nature of this mission, neither Xia Lei nor the members of the Zodiac Team carried shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles.
The Heron 2 UAV flew above the cargo ship in the blink of an eye, at a height of about two thousand meters.
Xia Lei said anxiously: "Sayimu, go and get Angu Mihan's sniper rifle for me. I will kill it with the xl2500 sniper rifle!"
"Only you can do this job." Saimu said, and he ran towards the entrance to the cabin.
But before Saimu could run to the entrance of the cabin, the Heron 2 hovering in the sky suddenly launched an Ares air-to-ground missile!
Ares air-to-ground missiles flew rapidly from the blue sky and white clouds with a tail of fire.
With the power of the God of War, it could easily tear a huge hole in the hull. Within an hour of its explosion, the cargo ship would be silent due to flooding. If it bombs the bridge, the target will be the cargo ship's electronic instruments and power equipment, and the ship will not be able to return to Cyprus.
"It's going to blow up the right side of the hull!" Xia Lei quickly determined where Zhan Zhan was going to bomb. With a loud warning, he quickly rushed to the left side of the deck, and then jumped onto the left side deck with a flying dive.
Saimu also fell on the left deck, looking nervously at the Ares missiles falling from the sky.
