Chapter 1192: Waiting for the Day of Prayer
After obtaining specific results of the ceremony, the members of the action team quickly evacuated.
In their opinion, the operation was carefully planned, the process was covert, and the retreat was swift, taking less than two minutes, which was simply perfect.
However, they had not run a few steps when suddenly an invisible wave spread to them. Most people felt dizzy, staggered forward a few steps, and then fell to the ground.
They had actually worn items to defend against mental shocks beforehand, but according to Eros's arrangement, a counter-ritual was also needed to ensure that there would be no mistakes.
However, they thought the cost was too high and too troublesome, and thought this step was unnecessary so they omitted it, which resulted in most of them losing their combat effectiveness.
Only a fighter sent by the federal operations department remained on the scene. Although he did not participate in the operation, he was also aware of the incident and would help cover the retreat of personnel if necessary.
But this time, even if he wanted to help, he had no way to do so. The spiritual power of Gui Zihan, Wang Tongshan and Bian Zhijie locked onto him at the first moment.
If he made the slightest move at this moment, the three men would attack him without hesitation.
Although the situation here was under control, there were more security forces behind the action team. They didn't know what had happened. They only knew that they had received a call for help from the front and saw their colleagues falling down from afar.
They immediately raised their guns and pointed them in this direction, but did not shoot. Instead, the third-level fighter among them quickly rushed forward.
These people are elite professional troops. They don't care which side is right or wrong. They only know that the people on their side must be protected and cannot be taken away and controlled by the visiting group at will.
In fact, if they are really the party at fault, they should do this even more, as it will help them to avoid responsibility afterwards.
At this moment, it can be seen that personnel from both sides are moving towards the middle area. Although the federal rear personnel know a little about the situation, for them, it is still essentially an emergency. The Dashun side has a complete action plan, so personnel are dispatched faster.
Yuan Qiyuan, Qin Qingque, Su Wei and Wei Dong immediately stepped forward and directly confronted the fighters who were coming over.
Gui Zihan also got out of the car and looked to the other side of the road. After the fighters coming over here saw him from afar, even before they got close, the alienated tissues in their bodies began to spontaneously resist forward, causing their speed to slow down involuntarily.
The fighter over there knew he had no chance and stopped as well.
The guards of the visiting delegation took advantage of this opportunity and rushed to the scene. They quickly arrested the people lying on the ground and found the objects they were holding.
A team of technical experts quickly stepped forward to measure and trace the ceremony below, taking photos and copying them at the same time. The whole operation was orderly, fast but not chaotic.
At this time, an airship slowly descended from above. Because the visiting delegation had been attacked before, the Federal Executive Office specially sent an official to coordinate and handle the emergency this time.
Now they had sensed some movement up there, and although they didn't know what it was, they felt that something was wrong, so they immediately decided to come over and negotiate with the delegation to see if they could reduce the situation and control it within a certain scope.
Captain Xie contacted Chen Chuan and said, "Director Chen, it seems to be as you expected. How are you going to deal with this matter?"
Chen Chuan said calmly: "Keep a copy of the evidence and hand it over to the Federation. Let's see how they deal with it."
He knew that these people were just the ones rushing to the front, and it wouldn't make much sense even if they were all killed. The key was the people behind. If the Federation could give him a satisfactory explanation, then he could give them some face and not make too much noise.
But he knew that the Federation would not be able to explain it clearly or give a satisfactory answer, so he had to do it himself next.
Captain Xie said, "Okay, let's arrange it this way for now."
After the affairs officer on the airship landed, he negotiated with Captain Xie.
As he walked up, he subconsciously tensed his body, preparing to face Captain Xie's tough questioning.
You have to know that the attack on Captain Xie happened not long ago, and now something like this has happened again. The federal government’s promises and security guarantees are no longer convincing.
However, unexpectedly, the latter did not make things too difficult for him and handed over the captured people and evidence to him. He immediately solemnly promised that he would get to the bottom of the matter no matter what.
Head Xie expressed his gratitude in a very official tone, and then the Dashun delegation got back into the car as if nothing had happened, and ten minutes later, they arrived at the banquet hall.
After the group entered the banquet hall, a receptionist immediately came up and invited them to the main hall. At this time, a congressman was speaking on the stage. When he saw the members of the Dashun delegation coming over, he naturally turned his words to the latter and led the applause. The whole hall then rang with welcome applause.
The congressman said a few more words and then invited Captain Xie to come up and speak.
Chen Chuan looked around. Most of the people who came here today were prominent politicians and wealthy businessmen, as well as some celebrities and beautiful stars.
Although many fighters came, two of whom were obviously fighters from the military, Krosar did not show up as advertised. It was unknown whether he was avoiding meeting him or was delayed due to something.
And when he stood there, many people couldn't help but look at him.
Most people looked at him with curiosity and awe, because he clearly had the destructive power of a throne fighter, but he was not restricted by the agreement. This meant that a person with extremely strong force who could kill them all at any time was standing with them, and they shuddered just thinking about it, although this situation was unlikely to happen in the capital.
Recently, countries and companies have been trying to pass the supplementary agreement. However, if Dashun does not give in, it will be useless to urge them again. Moreover, such a global agreement has never been reached in just one or two years.
They could only "persuade" Chen Chuan to agree through various channels, but this step was blocked by Gao Ming. They couldn't even meet Chen Chuan, let alone convince him.
But now that they saw him in person, none of the lawyers present dared to approach him.
Chen Chuan did not see Krosar and had no interest in the people present, so he walked aside alone. At this moment, his expression suddenly changed slightly, because he found that the seed he had thrown out was moving again.
He suddenly remembered something, looked at his watch, and clicked on the boundary. Lines of data appeared on the light screen.
According to the ritual calendar of the primitive sect, tomorrow seems to be their monthly prayer day.
Such festive days are often the time for ceremonies to be held.
At the same time, "Lao Zheng" opened his eyes and found that he was still in the dark cabin, but he could feel that the ship was moving forward, instead of staying there as before.
He clearly remembered that he took the medicine three times in total, which was three days later.
Over the past few days, I felt that my body was actually fuller. It was obvious that the medicine given to them contained tonic ingredients.
He didn't think much about it and closed his eyes again.
After it was completely dark, the ferry arrived at the largest peninsula in the Cuiklan Great Inland Lake, the Dalu Peninsula.
After the ship docked at the pier, more than 30 people on board got off.
Everyone was skinny and bony, and they all felt a little dizzy when they came down. Some people couldn't stand steadily and fell to the ground, but under the urging and driving of the escort personnel, they struggled to stand up and stumbled to catch up with the team.
Old Zheng looked back at this time and saw three more ships arriving at the dock. If there were thirty or forty people on each ship, there would be almost more than a hundred people in total.
After walking for a while, they ran out of strength, and the paramedics stopped urging them to move forward, but instead gave them some medicine.
Lao Zheng could feel that this was a tonic that could keep the body in a certain state of excitement. The effect would last for about a day, after which the body's functions, which had exhausted their potential, would decline drastically, so the sacrifice ceremony must have taken place within a day.
After all the people on the several ships gathered, everyone was blindfolded and boarded several transport vehicles.
According to the perception of the alienated organization, he was walking up the mountain at first, but the temperature around him soon dropped and he felt like he had entered somewhere in the belly of the mountain. At the same time, they smelled a strange fragrance and everyone fell asleep again.
He also slowly closed his eyes.
When I woke up, I was already in a space similar to a circular arena, with people sitting scattered on the stage. Each of them had been cleaned and changed into a black overalls.
On their left and right sides were two huge square pools, with a faint mist rising from them and emitting a strange smell.
Directly in front of them was an arc-shaped object covered with a golden curtain. Several people were standing there talking. Standing in the middle was a short woman who was also wearing a smock, but it was the same golden color as the curtain.
Judging from the exposed skin on the back of his hands and the silver-white hair sticking out from his overalls, he is already old.
A tall figure beside her said, "Madam, these people will be used as sacrifices for your initiation ceremony."
The woman seemed a little disgusted: "They look too thin."
"The great being is only concerned with the ritual itself, not the quality of the sacrifice. This will not affect the effect of the ritual, so you can rest assured."
The man further explained: "After the ritual is successful, you can obtain the 'bottom nature', get the attention of the great being, and become one of us."
The old woman seemed a little worried. She said, "Can you let me take a look first? I want to see that great being with my own eyes before the ceremony."
The tall figure looked at her, then looked at the offerings made by Lao Zheng and the others, and said with a smile, "Of course."
