Chapter 1249: Turbulent Waves
Chapter 1249: Turbulent Waves
This time, Chen Chuan needed to move at a higher speed and search for the target's location, so he did not plan to bring any guards with him, but he would bring Chao Ming with him.
Because having Chao Ming is like having an extra pair of eyes, the efficiency of finding targets is greatly improved. Moreover, if there are enemies approaching or any unexpected situations during a fierce battle, Chao Ming can also remind him.
He had already said what he needed to say, so after explaining it to the team members, he packed up a bit and took various battle supplies. After thinking for a while, he took the scripture with him and then walked aside.
The external implant is placed here. It also stores some key information and cannot be left here alone.
This time he will basically be facing off against the fighters from Dongxuan Temple, and perhaps he will encounter other opponents; in addition to fighting, the consciousness above can also provide him with data analysis and information database search assistance, so he plans to wear this thing to fight.
He walked into the crack on the back of the implant. Once inside, the back closed instantly and the eyes on the mask flashed a bright light.
Although he had not used this thing much in the previous fierce battles, the latter had always been placed beside him, affected by his field at all times, and had been self-adjusting and growing. Now, after a little adaptation, it fit in.
He reached out and picked up the Xuejun Knife from the knife rack on the side. The long red scarf at the end of the handle moved without wind.
Putting the knife on the buckle of his waist, he walked out of the manor, glanced up at the sky, and a white-gold light flashed on his body, causing his figure to slowly rise.
Because this is not an area under the actual control of the federation, he does not need to abide by the federal rules.
When it reached a certain height, a flash of light appeared, and it suddenly passed through the sky above the Life Plateau and instantly shot to the end of the sky.
At the same time, Chao Ming, who was hovering in the sky, flapped his wings, instantly broke through the air and caught up.
After a while, a rumbling sound was heard in the sky above Kawatua.
The high priest stood on the viewing platform of the Hatikhan Temple, leaning on his staff. Akhtawa stood behind him and said, "High priest, Mr. Chen has left. I will be responsible for Kavatua's safety from now on."
The high priest said: "Akhtawa, your contribution is obvious to all, and the priesthood has decided to record your name in the priesthood."
"Thank you for your blessing, Ex."
Akhtawa placed his fist on the center of his forehead, his eyes lit up, his long-cherished wish finally coming true.
This was not for himself, but for the old priest who performed the blood-drinking ceremony for him. The name Akhtawa was also given to him by the old priest, and it was their inheritance.
At this time, a waiter came over, bowed, said a respectful word to the two of them, and then said that Deputy Commander Lu came to visit them.
The high priest slowly turned around and said, "Akhtava, please come with me to see him." Akhtava bowed slightly. "It's my pleasure."
North Lelus, inside the Gao Manor Castle.
Gao Xinwen changed into an old robe. This robe had been there for more than ten years and was once his favorite piece of clothing.
There was just a little blood stain on the cuff that had not been washed off. Although it was washed off, the blood stain remained on his head, causing him to feel a sharp pain every time he thought of it, accompanied by unspeakable disgust.
He took a few deep breaths, stood up, and walked through the magnificent corridor of the castle. The marble walls on both sides were inlaid with stained glass, which contained ancient paintings of Eastern Land mythology. Under the high arched dome, the glass lamps flickered with a soft and clear light.
He walked through the long corridor and arrived at the open atrium. A gust of wind blew, and the copper bells hanging on the eaves made clear sounds, which calmed his restless mind.
A two-meter-tall figure stood on an inner track car.
This is a man who looks to be around forty years old. He has sharp facial features, high cheekbones, thick lips, deep eye sockets, and a pair of cold black pupils. He looks like some kind of large predatory beast.
His body was covered with a layer of explants that seemed to grow on his body, with tough and transparent keratin scales, especially from the elbow to the wrist, there were two rows of arthropod barbs.
The small part of the exposed skin was grey-green in color, with veins underneath like tattoos, and a light flickered inside with breathing.
He said in a low and hoarse voice, "Mr. Gao." Then he reached out and opened the car door for him.
Gao Xinwen nodded to him, sat in, and said, "Let's go to the Tunnel Research Institute."
On both sides of him were neatly lined up armed puppet teams, each of them wearing the latest protective armor and masks, with two Donglu long swords flashing with cold light on their waists. At this moment, as the rail car moved forward, they ran in unison, as if they were driven by the same will.
And in the sky, there were also fighting creatures circling back and forth one after another.
The rail car passed through a straight tunnel carved out of the solid rock wall and the mountain, and ten minutes later, it arrived at the laboratory set up by the Yuanren Company.
It is half embedded in the mountain wall, and the outside is an alien membrane cover supported by prismatic supports. The light from outside that penetrates through it becomes cold, dim and soft.
The rail car stopped here, and Gao Xinwen came out.
The head of the institute came over with all the researchers, "Mr. Gao..."
Gao Xinwen said, "I came here to relax and have a vacation. My brother asked me to come and ask about the situation here. I don't have much time to spend here, so if you have any new discoveries recently, just tell me directly." The person in charge didn't expect to be asked this right away. He hesitated and said, "We have sent out a total of twelve exploration teams in the past five years..."
Gao Xinwen interrupted him: "Tell me the result."
The person in charge was about to pass the information to him, but after hearing what he said, he stopped moving, feeling a little embarrassed. He put down his hand and said, "We haven't gotten anything valuable from there yet, but we have found something. We are missing a 'key'."
"key?"
"Yes, we need the right key." The person in charge said, "That may be the key."
He carefully observed Gao Xinwen's expression, and seeing that he showed no signs of impatience, he continued, "We searched for some past information and found that members of the institute had the same idea as us. A researcher may have already found the key, and the thing may have been taken away by him."
Gao Xinwen frowned and said, "A former researcher? Which one?"
The person in charge waved his hand and someone immediately handed him the information. Gao Xinwen took it and after seeing the researcher's photo and name, he slightly increased the strength in his hand. Only Kanbo noticed his change of mood.
Gao Xinwen said, "I'll have someone pay attention." His voice was almost flat. After throwing the information back to the person in charge, he turned around and strode away.
The guard next to him immediately followed, but his pace was very fast, as if he didn't want to stay here any longer.
The person in charge was a little surprised to see him leave so quickly, but at the same time he felt relieved. He looked at the slightly wrinkled documents in his hand, looked at them thoughtfully, turned around and said, "Don't stand there, keep working."
After the researchers left, he walked back to the archive room, took a look at the well-mannered young researcher in the photo, smoothed out the wrinkles on it, and put it back in the previous file drawer.
In Arcana Continent, a ray of light appeared on the northwest coastline of the Federation, and then suddenly stopped.
Chen Chuan was floating in the air, looking at the vast ocean in the distance. After passing here, he would be out of the territory of the federation.
In a highland valley nearby, there lives a primitive tribe. Because they are behind Kavatua, they have not been disturbed by the federals for a long time.
At this time, a sentry saw him and shouted excitedly. Soon, more and more people gathered and knelt down to pray.
Chen Chuan saw it, but he didn't say anything. After identifying the direction, he turned into a ray of light and disappeared again.
Thanks to the analysis and information provided by the external implant, he can easily tell whether the island he passes by is what he needs to find, and it can also indicate the area he is in at all times, so he does not need to stop and can always stay in the right direction.
And when passing by some unnamed islands and reefs, the consciousness will also record them into the database and update the content.
In less than two hours, he found the large sea area selected by the high priest.
There was some change in the weather. Suddenly a storm arose, the sea was surging, and the sky became dark.
However, it was not a bad thing for him, because from here on, there were observation posts and patrol airships of the Yuanren Company distributed around. When wind and rain came, the airships could not take off and visibility became low, but it did not hinder his observation.
Next we found the island.
According to the plan provided by the consciousness in the external implant, he traveled along the most appropriate route.
Amidst the heavy rain, a ray of light broke through the dark sky and passed like lightning across the raging sea.
At this moment, most of the guards on sentry posts on various islands stayed in the warm rooms, and no one noticed the sudden light between the sea and the sky.
Five minutes later, he flew out of the storm, and the whole world became sunny and peaceful again.
The sky was a high, clear, azure blue. Sunlight shone through the gaps in the clouds, shattering on the pure and vast sea. Not far away, a large island emerged.
The island was surrounded by a shallow turquoise bay with clear water. With his eyesight, he could almost see the schools of fish and colorful corals swimming below. The white sand beach was as fine as snow.
But this is only on the surface. Above the mask light curtain of the external implant, dazzling red light flashes everywhere, indicating that there is a large field covering the entire island.
His eyes narrowed slightly. The outline of the island was similar to what the high priest had described, but he made another discovery. Some of the buildings on the island overlapped with some of the places that had appeared in his memory potion.
He looked at this place deeply, it seemed that he had found the right place.
