Popular recommendation:

Xier City, the submarine Guixu.

With a teacup in his hand and his beloved pipe in his mouth, Chen Yu sat in the driver's seat with his legs crossed, watching the private chat channel with relish.

In the days since Meng Lei left, the Guixu number has become Chen Yu's office.

For various matters in the fleet, he issued orders through the private chat channel of the Guixu.

The Shenlong was temporarily handed over to Wang Qi, and all logistical and personnel issues were handled by Wang Qi.

In fact, the binding and ownership of the initial wasteland boat is no longer as important as it was when it was first crossed.

In addition to living and facilitating the communication between Blue Star players, the most important role of the initial wasteland boat is to perform bounty tasks in the shallow sea area.

Everyone knows that one day in the future, if you want to go deeper into the sea, the wasteland craft must be abandoned.

The name of the submarine, which originally symbolized identity, no longer had its original meaning after the Alien Alliance issued an identity card for each Blue Star player.

That is to say, for the major fleets, the most famous flagships at the time represented the status of fleet commanders.

In addition, the significance of the submarine name has been minimal.

At this moment, the time has come to more than seven o'clock in the evening.

At this time, most people have finished their busy days.

Of course, those who seek jobs in the city of Xier are not included, because their work and rest time are calculated according to the work system of the city of Xier.

Other players who survived as shallow sea bounty hunters have basically completed the tasks of the day.

They all returned to their respective fleets to hold regular meetings, or rested alone.

At this moment, Chen Yu was checking the summary of the meeting sent by the captains of the formations in the private chat channel.

It is worth mentioning that,

In the past few days, Wang Qi and Chen Yu divided the fleet into five formations according to the different positions of personnel in the fleet.

Among them, formations 1 to 3 belong to the formation of bounty hunters, with about 300 people.

The daily task of these people is to continuously complete the bounty task from the city hall.

It is an important source of funding for fleet development.

The No. 4 and No. 5 formations are all kinds of technical talents looking for jobs in Xier City.

These people, as players, integrated into the alien society, and while earning a fixed salary, "blatantly" stealthily learned various alien technologies.

People like them are not only the pillars of the future fleet development.

It is also the cornerstone for the entire Blue Star mankind to survive in the cracks and develop in the blockade.

Only when these people really grow up, can the Blue Stars get rid of the control of the Alien Alliance and have their own foothold in this ocean.

At the moment, Chen Yu clicked on the private chat messages sent by the captains of the formations, read them one by one, and summed up the gains of the day in his heart.

After a while, the bell of the visitor of Guixu rang.

Chen Yu put down the teacup in his hand and got up to open the door.

I found that it was that kid Ning Wen who came over.

"How is it? What did you gain today?"

In the past few days, everyone has been extremely busy, and Ning Wen is no exception.

Before leaving, Meng Lei entrusted him with the task of gathering intelligence and left part of the start-up funds.

These days, Ningwen is in the streets and alleys of Xier City, constantly wandering back and forth.

Not only did I get a lot of information from the local residents, but I also reviewed all the companies, shops, stores, etc. in the city, and summed up a lot of useful information.

Even Chen Yu, who had a bright eye, was impressed by this college student.

The ability to work is indeed remarkable and worth developing.

As soon as he entered the door, Ning Wen held the small notebook in his hand and said to Chen Yu a little excitedly:

"Captain Chen, I just heard something interesting."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

Ning Wen stepped into the living cabin of the Guixu. After the airlock door was closed, he approached Chen Yu and said:

"I was in a bar just now and heard from a few bounty hunters that there are several independent colonies in this waterway that are essentially black markets.

Because it is independent from the jurisdiction of the alliance, it is an extra-legal place where various forces are mixed.

There, there are often some good things that are rarely seen in the league for sale.

Includes advanced submarines and weapons.

There are even occasional high-tech products flowing from the leveling area, as well as the latest leveling area sea area map.

Some things, even the alliance may not be able to master! "

Speaking of this, Ning Wen looked at Chen Yu with a burning gaze, and said:

"Captain Chen, after Brother Lei and the others come back, when there is time, let's go to the black market together."

Hearing this, Chen Yu nodded noncommittally and said with a smile:

"Yes, places like the black market often allow us to see the most real side of the world.

If you have the chance, you can really take a look. "

After a pause, Chen Yu said again:

"However, for the detailed information about these independent colonies, you still need to dig deeper, so as not to be tricked back."

Ning Wen immediately shouted excitedly:

"Okay, no problem, leave it to me!"

Then, Chen Yu asked again, "Is there any other information?"

Ning Wen looked down at the contents recorded in the notebook, turned a page, and said:

"Well, one more thing, it's about the Alien Separation Organization."

Hearing this, Chen Yu showed a hint of interest and raised his head at Ning Wen.

"Tell me."

"Is such that."

Ning Wen cleared his throat and continued:

"The Alien Separation Organization has been around for nearly a hundred years, almost ten years after the Tia people lost contact with their parent star.

The origin of this organization can no longer be studied, but they were originally just a small underground organization.

Its core purpose is to establish a more democratic society through various means and to break the dictatorship of the alliance.

From the very beginning of the organization, they have used means such as resistance to the alliance, refusal to cooperate, and outright terrorist attacks to disrupt the normal operation of the alliance and weaken the authority of the alliance.

However, with the development of the times, different voices began to emerge within the organization. "

When he said this, Ning Wen paused for a while, then suddenly looked up at Chen Yu and asked:

"Captain Chen, you should be familiar with the current political goals of the alliance, right?"

Chen Yu nodded and said:

"Maintaining stability and maintaining a political-ecological balance is based on maintaining the existing social structure and state."

"That's right."

Ning Wen nodded affirmatively and said:

"The league has long lost its vitality and the courage to explore and develop, they just want to keep the status quo and enjoy the moment.

Even if you live in this dark alien ocean, you will never see the stars, and you are willing to fall like this.

But among the members of the Alien Separation Organization, there are some people.

They strongly advocate exploring deeper areas, reopening ancient waterways, and exploring the secrets of this deep ocean.

In order to one day in the future, you can return to the mother planet.

Therefore, the current Alien Separation Organization has developed into two factions internally.

A faction continues the tradition of the organization, still trying to seize power with the alliance and create the ideal democratic society.

The other faction is unintentional to participate in political events, and concentrates on the development of technology and the exploration of deep areas.

They are often not ashamed of the behavior of traditional factions, believing that the actions of the other party will exacerbate the speed of genocide and are inconsistent with their original intentions.

Therefore, serious disputes often occur within the organization because of different views and ideas.

Now, the whole organization is in chaos and there are signs of an imminent split. "

After listening to Ning Wen's description, Chen Yu nodded thoughtfully.

This information is relatively more precious than information about the black market.

In Chen Yu's impression, the Alien Separation Organization originally belonged to a terrorist organization, and the intelligence brought by Ning Wen also confirmed this.

Although its starting point is to consider the people, but the means are somewhat incompetent.

For such an organization, Chen Yu didn't intend to have too much contact at all, and the two sides would most likely be on opposite sides.

But if there is another faction that focuses on development and exploration now,

In a sense, the two sides still have a certain possibility of cooperation.

After all, if the Blue Stars wanted to find their way home, they had to go all the way to the deep zone.

With a common goal, there is a basis for cooperation.

Chen Yu took a deep breath with his pipe in his mouth, and in the smoke, he said to Ning Wen in a deep voice:

"Look for opportunities to inquire about some other faction's information, if possible, it is best to be able to connect with the other party."

Ning Wen nodded,

Immediately, a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes, and he said:

"I'm afraid it will be difficult to get in touch with them.

It is said that the main activity area of ​​this faction is in the deepest part of the shallow area.

Under normal circumstances, it is rarely seen around the entrance to the channel.

but…

I'll try my best. "

Chen Yu suddenly smiled when he heard the words: "They didn't show up before, first, they were busy exploring the depths, and there was no need to come back.

In addition, you have to hide from the alliance and try to avoid exposure.

But now, with the arrival of our Blue Star players, they will definitely find a way to contact us and get our support.

Because we share common goals and have no conflicts of interest.

So, just pay more attention recently, they won't be silent for too long. "

Chen Yu's voice fell, and Ning Wen nodded thoughtfully.

Then, he took out his pen and wrote down Chen Yu's instructions in his notebook.

These days, pens and notebooks have been with me all the time, almost an essential part of everyday life.

There is a lot of information that needs to be sorted and recorded every day. If you just use your brain, you may miss something.

In his own words, a good memory is not as good as a bad writing.

In this respect, it is quite similar to Meng Lei.

Seeing his serious look, Chen Yu couldn't help but smile.

"Is there anything else?"

Ning Wen shook his head and said:

"No, that's all for now, I'll go to the bar later.

All the people who go there are talented, good-natured, and most of them are well-informed bounty hunters.

You can learn a lot from their mouths with just a glass of beer. "

Chen Yu smiled and said, "Okay, go ahead, if you don't have enough money, say hello to me and go to Xiao Wang to get it."

"Yes, obey!"

Ning Wen was instantly happy, his legs stood at attention, and he gave a military salute.

At this time, he suddenly remembered something and asked again:

"By the way, Captain Chen, what happened to Brother Lei and the others? Where are they now?"

Holding something like a tablet, now there are only two people in the entire fleet, Chen Yu and Meng Lei, each holding one.

It's not that this thing is very rare, it's mainly a little expensive.

Usually, everyone communicates with each other through the private chat channel of the initial wasteland boat, and no other equipment is needed for the time being.

Therefore, apart from Chen Yu, the other members of the fleet did not know about Meng Lei's itinerary.

Shaking his head gently, Chen Yu said:

"A few hours ago, they lost contact there, it is estimated that there is no signal in the nearby sea.

But in terms of time, at this point, they should also go to the first site to go out to sea, the Rongyan Outpost.

It is estimated that after a while, they will send a message to report that they are safe. "

Ning Wen closed the book, with a hint of hope in his eyes, and sighed:

"I really miss the days when I went to sea with the commander before. I also want to continue exploring and appreciate this strange ocean..."

For humans, the unknown is terrifying.

It is also a wonderful thing to explore the unknown.

People's curiosity stems from their yearning for the unknown. Ning Wen's early twenties is the time when his curiosity is heaviest.

The experience of being with Meng Lei for just a few days before, even if it was full of crises, made him feel the thrill and excitement that he had never had before.

Chen Yu smiled slightly, raised his hand and patted Ning Wen's shoulder, saying:

"Don't worry, we won't stay in Xier City forever, one day, we will have our own territory.

At that time, you will be tossing outside..."

As soon as the words were said, there was a sudden humming sound in the cockpit.

Chen Yu immediately turned his head to look, but saw the handheld tablet placed on the center console, the screen lit up.

"Any news?"

Chen Yu frowned slightly.

Ning Wen also noticed it next to him, and his eyes lit up immediately and asked:

"Is there any news from the commander?"

"possible."

Chen Yu nodded.

At this point in time, there should be no one else who can send him a message except Meng Lei.

He didn't think much about it at the moment, stepped over and picked up the tablet, opened the information pop-up window and glanced roughly.

In the next second, Chen Yu's expression changed instantly.

Ning Wen watched it sincerely,

Seeing Chen Yu's expression with a smile just now, after seeing the content of the message, it changed drastically in an instant, and suddenly became extremely dignified.

Ning Wen realized that something was wrong and immediately asked:

"Captain Chen, what happened? Who sent you a message?"

Chen Yu didn't speak, stared at the tablet in his hand carefully, and concentrated for a moment.

Suddenly, he clipped the tablet under the creaking nest, turned and sprinted out of the cockpit.

At the same time, Chong Ningwen shouted:

"Go! Follow me to the Security Office, Commander Meng and the others have an accident!"

While speaking, Chen Yu's feet were windy and he strode out.

Ning Wen was slightly taken aback by this sudden change, and his brain failed to react for a while.

After being stunned for a second, he suddenly came back to his senses, then hurriedly turned around to keep up, and shouted uneasily:

"Captain Chen, wait for me, what happened!?"

...

Sear City, second floor living area.

Building 12 in Zone C.

The red and white moss-like succulents grow intertwined in flower pots made of special materials, exuding a sweet and pungent fragrance.

Like a patch of colorful flowers, this luxurious villa is dotted.

An old woman with a stout figure, obviously aged, with a dark scarf wrapped around her head, carefully took care of the flaws of those plants.

She will carefully pick up the excess parts from the ground with tweezers and put them into the glass bottle she carries with her, looking carefully.

Being able to have an exclusive gardener and planting a lot of precious plants around the house.

It is enough to see that the status of the owner of this villa is extraordinary.

In fact, this is the mansion of Roger, the head of the City Security Office.

As the person in charge of the Office of Safety, which covers the widest area, has the largest population, and is the most prosperous gathering place near the entrance of Channel 66671.

Roger can enjoy this kind of treatment, and he deserves it.

Inside the house, Roger, who had finished a day's work, sat with his wife and daughter in the living room on the second floor as usual for after-dinner entertainment.

The so-called after-dinner entertainment, to put it bluntly, is watching TV.

Roger himself didn't like to socialize, but thanks to the alliance's arbitrary control and the strong security measures in the city, he didn't need much socializing at ordinary times.

So after get off work, his daily entertainment is just to accompany his wife and daughter.

Even if the things on the TV are not what he is interested in.

"Life is short, but it didn't take so long for human beings to understand the truth and break the truth.

However, in a certain corner at the end of the darkness, there is such a place.

Would you like to come with me? "

On the large-screen TV, a recent hit drama is playing.

The name is, "You From the Abyss"!

The director's brain is wide open, and the content is very absurd, but it has a very high popularity and ratings.

Most of the scenes in the play were filmed in Xiba City on Channel 186, with excellent production and a strong cast.

The point is, in order to create an authentic atmosphere.

It is said that many of the scenes were shot deep in the shallow area, in the seafloor fissures bordering the flat area.

In order to dive to a sufficient depth, the shooting team deliberately borrowed a deep-submersible submarine from the Union Military Department and went down to the bottom of the nearly 10,000-meter crack!

With the exception of the Alliance Biological Research Institute, non-governmental organizations have not recorded such a depth for many years.

It is precisely because of this that this drama has exploded in major channels in a short period of time.

Even Roger watched with relish.

However, his focus is different from that of his wife and daughter, and it is not on those vulgar romances at all.

He went purely for that rare deep-sea wonder.

"There is no real love in this world. The so-called love is just a human fantasy, a beautiful excuse for the reproduction of the race!"

On TV, Roger was dozing off while watching the **** plot.

In today's episode, there is no plot about the abyss under the sea, which makes him a little boring and boring.

But in order to accompany his wife and daughter, he cheered up and forced himself to watch it.

However, looking at it, the eyelids couldn't help but start fighting.

I don't know how long it took, my wife's gentle voice suddenly sounded in my ears:

"Wake up, someone is looking for you."

Hearing this voice, Roger woke up in a daze and realized that he had actually fallen asleep on the sofa.

He smiled apologetically at his wife:

"Sorry, I'm a little tired."

After he finished speaking, he realized that his wife was holding his handheld tablet.

A voice call request is flashing on the screen.

Looking at the remarks on the call, I found that the call was from the officer on duty at the Office.

Roger took a deep breath, a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.

Getting up and kissing his wife's forehead, he went downstairs with the tablet, and only answered the call when he reached the first floor.

"Hey, what's the matter?"

Roger's voice was a little displeased, and he hated having to deal with work when he was off work.

At this moment, an urgent voice came from the other end:

"Director, something happened, something happened at the Rongyan Outpost!"

Hearing this, Roger put away his impatient look and faintly realized that something big might really happen.

Otherwise, the subordinates who know his temper well will never disturb him during off-duty hours.

"Don't worry, take your time and tell me what's going on."

Roger asked in a deep voice, his tone becoming a little dignified.

"That's right, two Blue Star players came to us just now to report.

It is claimed that their friend escaped after suffering a massive painted skin outbreak at the Rongyan outpost.

Now, the entire Rongyan outpost has been occupied! "

"what?!"

Hearing this, Roger Tong Kong shrank, and his expression changed on the spot.

If it is said that the site was attacked by armed forces, or infiltrated and destroyed by terrorists, these are understandable.

But the outbreak of such a large-scale painting skin is a bit beyond his psychological tolerance.

The point is that, after the targeted drug, Pichongjing, the painted skin parasites have long ceased to be a threat.

And there will be a lot of equipment on major sites and even private submarines.

How could there be a large-scale outbreak of painted skin at the Rongyan Outpost?

"How is this possible! Have you checked with the Rongyan Outpost?"

Roger asked hurriedly, feeling that this was a little strange.

The person on duty on the other end of the phone said very quickly:

"The Rongyan outpost could not be contacted. According to the data provided by the information department, the signal of the nearby beacon station was interrupted at about 4 o'clock in the afternoon.

Then at about five o'clock, the optical cable signal also suddenly disconnected.

It's less than four hours before the loss of contact, so no emergency repair tasks have been issued, and the Rongyan Outpost is still in a state of loss of contact. "

Speaking of this, the staff on duty paused for a while and continued:

"However, the Blue Star player who came to report the eucalyptus provided a video file shot by a diving suit.

The content is the video of the other party's friend who escaped from the Rongyan outpost at that time.

We took a look around, and we can confirm that the vast majority of people in the city have been infected with painted skin and turned into parasites.

There is absolutely no way to fake this! "

The tone of the staff on duty was very determined, and it was obvious that the authenticity of the matter had been confirmed.

Roger was instantly stunned, and the whole person was stunned.

But the next second, he immediately came back to his senses and realized another problem.

"You mean, the other party is a Blue Star player?!"

"Yes."

"Among the Blue Star player groups, are there already people who have the ability to buy submarines and explore deep areas?"

For this question, Roger was a little puzzled.

The Rongyan Outpost is more than 300 kilometers away from Xier City, and it takes at least two days to reach that sea area!

Up to now, Blue Star players are still wandering in the shallow waters, and no one has ever purchased any submarine at the shipyard, let alone three days ago.

What exactly is going on?

At this time, the officer on the opposite side said again:

"Director, the other party claims to be Meng Lei's friend, the captain of the former Guixu.

Meng Lei and the others were driving the newly registered Typhon boat and set off three days ago. They just arrived at the Rongyan outpost today when they encountered a painted skin outbreak.

After escaping, they sailed to a sea area with normal signals and reported the information as soon as possible. "

Hearing this, Roger was suddenly stunned.

"It was him!"

Thinking about it again, it seems that among the Blue Star players in the entire Sear City, only Meng Lei can leave Sear City and explore the deeper seas at this stage.

The situation was urgent, and now Roger stopped asking too many details, and said to the phone:

"Send me that video right away, then contact the mayor for an emergency meeting!"

"Yes!"

After speaking, Roger immediately hung up the phone amid the other party's response.

After returning to the second floor and explaining to his wife, Roger didn't have time to change into work clothes, so he went out in casual clothes.

Shortly after walking out of the house, I received a video file with my tablet in hand.

Roger galloped fast in the direction of the third-floor administrative area, opened the video, and watched with a solemn expression.

Although the video picture is relatively clear, the screen shake is too great.

It can be seen that the photographer was in a very critical situation at the time.

From the background of the video, it can be clearly heard that there are a lot of roars roaring filial piety.

The flickering lights also reflected a **** scene in the city, with twisted and swaying figures and broken corpses everywhere.

Across the screen, you can faintly feel a strong **** smell coming towards your face.

Roger took a few glances and was immediately able to confirm the authenticity of the video, and it would never be fake.

Something really happened at Melting Rock Outpost!

"Damn it! Could it be that the Painted Skin Sect has appeared again?"

Roger cursed fiercely, his face uncertain.

"Or, is this a group of brainless guys in the organization who deliberately launched a terrorist attack without authorization!? It's a bit too much to even say hello! Let them continue to mess around like this, or it's too much. For a long time, the entire organization will become the public enemy of the whole people!"

While thinking angrily, Roger walked quickly towards the shaft passage in the administrative district.

Twenty minutes later.

In the reception hall of the Xier City Security Office, Roger met Chen Yu and Ning Wen who came to report the case.

"You two, are Captain Meng's friends?"

Roger asked the staff on duty to pour a glass of water for the two of them, expressing enough goodwill first.

Chen Yu nodded and said solemnly:

"That's right, it's the message from Captain Meng, asking me to come here to help report the situation and report the situation of Rongyan Post to the Alliance."

Roger hummed and said:

"Besides this video, did Captain Meng say anything else?"

Chen Yu nodded again, and then told Roger in detail the series of inferences Meng Lei sent him in text.

After Roger heard this, his face became more and more gloomy.

It was obvious that he was trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart.

"Captain Meng means that the high-level alliance members of the Rongyan Post deliberately used some unknown new type of painted skin worm eggs to infect the entire city's residents, and completely closed the entire city?!"

Roger's voice was a little cold, and there was anger boiling in his eyes.

"Yes!"

Chen Yu's face was also extremely ugly.

It was the first time that Meng Lei went out to the deeper waters. In less than three days, he almost fell into the waters under the jurisdiction of the alliance, which made him feel extremely angry.

Not to mention whether the alliance is directly responsible for this disaster.

Just that the top of the post was infiltrated to such an extent by the enemy that the Alliance didn't even notice it.

In this regard, Chen Yu was completely disappointed by the so-called Alien Alliance government.

"Captain Meng has made it very clear in the message that the girl they rescued from the clinic is the girlfriend of the secretary of the Rongyan post.

Before the painting skin infection completely broke out, the other party had reminded her to prepare in advance.

Obviously, this incident has an inevitable connection with the alliance officials of that outpost! "

Chen Yu's voice was also a little cold, but not because of anger, but because of the incompetence of the alliance.

Hearing this, Roger also noticed the change in Chen Yu's tone.

The man sitting across from him seemed to be around forty or fifty years old, which is considered old age based on the average life expectancy of their alien colonists~lightnovelpub.net~.

But there was no trace of twilight energy on the other side, and even invisibly, there was an inexplicable aura.

That kind of temperament is very sharp, like a sharp sword unsheathed, which makes people feel very oppressive.

Roger took a deep breath, forced a kind smile, and said:

"As for the cause of this incident, our alliance will definitely make a detailed investigation and give the general public a satisfactory answer!

In addition, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to you and Captain Meng for your strong support to our alliance.

I'll have the staff contact you later to give you a certain reputation boost.

Finally, on Captain Meng's side, I will communicate with him personally.

I am so sorry for what happened to him! "

When Roger's voice fell, Chen Yu's expression softened slightly.

"I hope you can handle this matter well, otherwise once it is exposed, the image of the Alliance in the minds of Blue Star players will definitely be greatly reduced!"

"That's natural!"

Roger always responded with a smile.

Next, Chen Yu didn't stay in the Security Office for too long.

The things that should be done have been done, and there is no need for him to stay here.

But before leaving, Roger stopped him again and asked for Meng Lei's contact information, hoping to communicate directly with Meng Lei.

Chen Yu naturally would not refuse this request.

He pushed Meng Lei's contact information to Roger on the spot, and Chen Yu led Ning Wen and quickly left the Security Office.

As soon as the two of them left, a staff member came to the reception room and reported to Roger:

"Director, the mayor has arrived, and all departments have been notified, and the meeting will begin immediately!"
