Chapter 535: Expand as always

  Chapter 535 continues as usual

  Hearing what Captain Lake said, Duanmuhuai and Professor Palmer returned to the cabin, then Captain Lake led them to the radio station, and handed them earphones.

   "This is what we just received."

  “……”

  Duanmuhuai and Professor Palmer looked at each other, then took the earphones to their ears, and then heard intermittent calls from inside.

   "Here is the grid...we have been...don't...beg..."

   Except for a few words that could barely be heard at the beginning and in the middle, the rest was full of noise. Hearing this, Duanmuhuai raised his eyebrows and did not speak, while Professor Palmer looked at the captain suspiciously.

"How is this going?"

   "I don't know either, maybe I came here before..."

   "Understood, we will investigate then."

  Duanmu Huai gave the answer lightly, and he almost guessed what was going on.

   Clearly, those idiot cultists are screwed.

   Isn't this normal? Stupid mortals always think that they can rely on their own strength to manipulate evil gods, but in fact they don't have this ability at all. The reason why investigators stop them is not to stop their ambitions - after all, the ambitions of these guys will inevitably fail, but It's to prevent this group of idiot cultists from playing off and messing with everyone.

   Yes, their ambitions are bound to fail.

  This is not possible, but inevitable.

  The reason is also very simple. Most of these cultists feel the thoughts of evil gods through inspiration, and then they think they have found the truth of the world, and then they begin to desire to achieve their goals by pleasing evil gods.

  But in fact... What they feel, in the most common words, is—the blind man feels the elephant.

  That's right, human beings' mental power is simply unable to fully understand the existence and nature of evil gods, they can only perceive the part they can perceive. It seems that in this world, many artists can perceive the dreams of evil gods, and then draw many evil creatures-and think that this is a sign of some kind of evil or from the indescribable and indescribable dark part of the world.

   But think about it, maybe what you sense is just a nightmare of an evil god.

It's like a person dreaming that he is surrounded by a group of flies, or that his house suddenly explodes on the spot... Exploring reality through the ravings in the nightmare of evil gods is the same as deciphering Goldbach's conjecture through the sleepwalking of your college roommate funny.

  In fact, many adventures have similar situations. The player acts as an investigator to investigate the conspiracy of the cult, and then invades to the end step by step, and then arrives at the location of the final ceremony. Confronting those cultists, but suddenly at this time the cultists received a decree from the evil god, saying that the investigator is the key to completing the ceremony, and the investigator is required to make a choice.

  So a large group of cultists stood there like a mentally retarded person, watching their elaborate ceremony and the final decision was in the hands of an investigator who had been chasing them...

This is actually no different from dreaming. Many people have similar situations when they dream. They dream that a group of people are designing a ceremony to please themselves, and then someone suddenly stops them. They think it is fun, and then let that person decide the ceremony. The success or failure of your life - it is illogical in reality, but it is not logical to you in dreams.

  Although they received a strange radio, everyone did not change their itinerary because of this. After all, this is Antarctica, and we must take care of ourselves before taking care of others. So everyone set off from the icebreaker first, went to Queen Elizabeth Station, and started cleaning the scientific research station. Because it is in Antarctica, even the vacant scientific research station will not worry about being too dirty, as long as the various facilities can be used normally.

I have to say that everyone was very lucky. Shortly after entering the scientific research station, a sudden snowstorm followed, so that everyone had to go to the scientific research station before they even had time to appreciate the blue sky and white clouds in Antarctica. Avoid the severe cold in the test station.

"Aha………"

Lying on the bed, looking at the blizzard whistling outside the window, Mary sighed involuntarily. She felt like she was dreaming all the way up to now. Ran to Antarctica?

Until now, Mary felt that this was unbelievable. She even wondered if all of this was just a dream. Maybe tomorrow morning, she would wake up in her warm and comfortable apartment and go to school with Axie and Xia Li , and then went to Mrs. Leeds's restaurant for afternoon tea, and then she would tell about the dream she had, and then she would be teased by Xia Li, and then the three of them would discuss Ah Xie's fiancé together...

  Thinking about it, Mary closed her eyes and fell asleep.

  Compared to Mary who was exhausted and fell asleep in the snowstorm, the other person was much more energetic.

   "Finally, finally alive...!"

   Lorena almost raised her hands high, as if praising the goddess.

   "Goddess, I'm finally alive!"

   "To be honest, I really didn't expect you to be seasick."

  Looking at Lorena, who was like a dead fish all the way, and finally revived with full blood, Duanmu Huai also shook his head. Obviously, Lorena may be regarded as a limited weakness in the limit. After all, she started with Duanmuhuai, took a horse-drawn carriage, a gunboat, a starship, a car, a train, an airship, and an airplane—everything was fine.

   As a result, after boarding the icebreaker, the defense was directly broken.

  You don’t get seasick when you go to outer space, but you get this?

   Then it can only be said to be God's will.

   "Woo... I didn't expect..."

  Recalling the days on the icebreaker, Lorena's face was ashen.

   "Master Knight, can I apply to swim back when I return? I think it will be more comfortable..."

  Looking at Lorena's appearance, maybe she can really swim back to Fuego from Antarctica.

   "I have informed the maid to prepare a plane, don't worry."

  Duanmu Huai also comforted Lorena silently, he doesn't really want to take the boat anymore...

   "Okay...by the way, what are you doing, Master Knight?"

   "Oh, I'm investigating the whereabouts of these idiots."

  Duanmuhuai is holding a map of Antarctica in his hand, and is writing and drawing on it. This map marks the location of various scientific research stations, and some parts that have been proven. Of course, this is not the point for Duanmu Huai. Regarding the situation here, Duanmu Huai knows much better than Dr. Palmer and the others.

First of all, he first drew a mountain range taller than the Himalayas at 76°15' south latitude and 113°10' east longitude, and then drew a rolling mountain range from north to west. , is one of the holy places that countless players are eager to check in but cannot get - the city that the ancients once left, and what is hidden under this city, which has been sleeping for tens of millions of years, is the most disgusting and Ugly weird race.

   Shoggoth.

Judging from the previous radio signals, the scientific research station is located not far from the Crazy Mountains, which means that this group of cultists chose the route closest to the mountains. Now I don’t know if they were killed by Shoggoth or Shoggoth. Was it killed by Shoggoth, or was it killed by Shoggoth?

   Well, in short, there is no other possibility.

   It is impossible for these idiots and Shoggoths to hold a campfire when Duanmuhuai rushes over.

The Queen Elizabeth Station where Duanmuhuai and others are located is relatively far away. Obviously, it needs to be reached by plane... Of course, this is not a problem for Duanmuhuai. As long as the weather turns fine, then the maid can be directly Fly in and take them there.

  If it weren't for the need for an icebreaker to transport supplies... Hey, it's too late to say this now.

   "How about Miss Mary?"

   "Depending on the situation, pay attention. If her friend's soul is really here, I think she will definitely have some kind of reaction with Mary."

   Duanmu Huai looked at the map in front of him, then stretched out his hand and nodded.

   "If this is the case, then we will have to rely on the golden pupil to guide us."

   Then, he spoke.

   At this time, we must believe in the power of friendship.

  ...... Should be friendship, right?

  The cold wind howled.

  The cold wind mixed with snowflakes was blowing against the window, but Mary closed her eyes tightly and fell into a deep sleep as always. For her, this is just a dream as always, but it is so different.

At some point, the sound of the howling blizzard turned into the sound of pattering rain. When Mary came to her senses, she suddenly found herself holding an umbrella and standing on the street of Wudu. There was no one there. , as if she was on her way back to the apartment when she suddenly came to her senses.

  But soon, Mary realized something was wrong.

  This is not the fog city she is familiar with, this is another world, the place where she once struggled and escaped desperately. She stood at the crossroads and looked around - there was a faint mist in sight, blocking all the scenery and buildings.

  But soon, Mary saw a certain light flashing not far away.

  She hurriedly quickened her pace, crossed the intersection, walked across the street, and came to an alley.

   "Mary..."

   At the same time, a voice that was no longer familiar sounded from her ear.

   "Charlie? Where are you?"

  Mary held the umbrella tightly and called loudly. Soon, a series of hurried footsteps sounded again, and this time Mary did not hesitate at all, and almost ran over to the place where the footsteps came from.

   "Never again, Mary."

  Charlie's voice was broken and full of sadness.

   "No, Charlie...!"

Of course, Mary would not stop because of her friend's stop, she just gritted her teeth and ran forward, and then, the girl passed through the thick fog in front of her eyes—the next moment, the howling cold wind and snowflakes came over her face, Mary stopped subconsciously, and when she looked forward again, she saw that she was no longer in the fog city, but on a cliff of an extremely tall mountain range. Under this cliff, there is a strange, twisted, never-before-seen, extremely huge, strange city full of multi-dimensional structures.

   It seems to extend to the end of the world, as if it is the master of it all.

   At the same time, Xia Li's voice sounded again.

   "Don't come, go back, Mary..."

   "No, Charlie, where are you? I..."

  However, before Mary finished speaking, the next moment, the cliff under her feet collapsed.

   "———"

  After that, Mary widened her eyes in surprise and sat up.

  Outside the window, the snowstorm is still violent.

   "Charlie..."

   Staring out at the blizzard, Mary gritted her teeth.

   "I will definitely find you."

   I don’t have a fever anymore, but my stomach is still not feeling well, nausea, sweating easily, and I feel like vomiting after drinking too much water. I will update a chapter every day for a while, and see when it gets better... The rhinitis is still there
