The Modern Age of the Mysterious

v1 Chapter 174: Arrive at Avalon Island

"I see." Evan nodded, "If that's the case, only we can perform this task."

"There are some antecedents behind this main mission." Sean continued, "First of all, although Charlie Jojo went to Ocean City for the purpose of promoting the movie, he actually has a secret that involves exploration. Task."

"What mission?"

"The Court of God and the Quest Association have a strong curiosity about everything that happens in Ocean City..." Sean's esoteric permeated the surroundings to ensure that no one would eavesdrop, "Some high-level officials believe that there are some 'anti-Salvation religions' in Ocean City. the secret.

"Whether it's an order from the divine court, or the position of the Explorers Association itself...

"President Phillips very much hopes to grasp the situation in Ocean City."

"Anti-Salvationism"? Moonlight's eyes widened, and he instantly thought of "Judas Ring".

Of course, he didn't say the term banned by the silence sign.

Sean confirmed Moonlight's association with his eyes.

Moonlight had an expression of sudden realization on his face.

Anti-Salvationism, Judas Ring, Kennedy...

The whole thing is probably related to the kidnapping of three prodigies, Neil Gate, Benjamin Button and Alia Dickinson!

"So, Charlie Jojo's real mission is to investigate the secrets in Ocean City..."

Evan took a light breath: "Then there must be a lot of articles behind his disappearance...

"Jojo may have learned something, so he was killed or imprisoned!"

Sean blinked slowly and nodded, "This is also Arthur Merlin's conjecture.

"So, this mission actually has two layers: the first layer is to find Qiaoqiao, and the deeper layer is to dig out the secret hidden in Ocean City..."

Moonlight and Ivan nodded slowly.

Moonlight has a deeper understanding of why Arthur Merlin will give this task to Sean.

To unearth the secrets of the "Anti-Salvation Church" hidden in Ocean City, the spearhead of this mission is obviously directed at Judas Ring and Kennedy.

As long as Sean goes to search for Aaliyah, he will have to dig out this secret...

And as long as he completes this task, he can save Arya!

These are two goals that point to the same essence!

In addition to the reasons mentioned earlier, Sean is the most motivated person to undertake this task.

Moonlight's lips parted slightly, somewhat amazed at Arthur Merlin's ability to see through the essence of the matter and choose an executor...

Sean continued: "Involving Jojo and the secrets of the anti-Salvation Church in Ocean City, this is just a task given by the association."

"We have another mission.

"This is a personal entrustment given by Arthur Merlin.

"There is some backstory to this quest, involving the history of an important organization in Ocean City, which speaks for itself...

"However, in order to avoid confusion when carrying out the task, I will inform you about this task at a suitable time in the future.

"Now what you can know is that this private mission is related to the Daedalus Foundation."

Daedalus Foundation? Moonlight opened his eyes.

That mysterious organization that was created in the late sixteenth century to contain and control the terrible things that threaten the fate of mankind and is supported by many governments?

What does it have to do with Ocean City? What was Arthur Merlin's mission?

Although Moonlight has many doubts in his heart, he trusts Sean and his arrangements.

Therefore, he did not ask any further questions, but kept all these questions in his heart.

The mind returned to the present.

Moonlight is lying on the bed at this moment, and the lights in the room have been turned off.

He looked at the top of the dark cabin, and the light of the corridor lights outside the window was projected on the wall through the round porthole.

The sound of the waves fluctuated in the distance, and in this hypnotic sound, Moonlight fell into a dreamland.

Haichao's voice fell into a dream, allowing him to step into the modern city deep in the sea in advance...

After the emerald necklace crisis was resolved, the voyage became calm.

Soon, the Bronze Giant stopped in a deep water area nearly one nautical mile away from Avalon Island.

Due to the limited water depth of Avalon Island’s port, giant cruise ships like the Bronze Giant cannot enter, so people who land on the island can only take small boats, and the crew can row to the edge of the island before they can land.

Shawn and the others carried a few luggages and walked to the Z-shaped gangway on the first floor.

Under the gangway, is a small boat that has entered the water.

Before the Bronze Giant was temporarily docked, Sean had used the afterglow of the setting sun to carefully look at the island in the distance.

It was a small island, Sean guessed, it might be about the same size as the core area of ​​New York City.

There are some hardy plants on the island, and if it weren't for the obvious port and the red and white lighthouse on the distant hill, Avalon Island would look like an uninhabited natural desert island.

"Avalon..." Sean pondered in his heart, "It is the legendary island in the story of the Knights of the Round Table and King Arthur.

"Why is it named Avalon Island? Does it mean that it is a legendary land of nowhere?"

Thinking like this, Sean carried his suitcase to the gangway and walked at the end of the line.

The boat, in charge of rowing, was the young crew member who had been assisting Sean in the Emerald Necklace incident.

He knew that "Mr. Dirac" was about to disembark, so he took this job on purpose and greeted Sean and his party with great enthusiasm.

Sean nodded in greeting, and turned to observe the passengers who were also going to Avalon Island.

The Sarah family walked right in front of Sean. Mr. Nash was carrying two large suitcases, and Mrs. Sarah was holding little Anna. Little Anna was jumping down the gangway step by step, and looked back at Sean from time to time.

At this moment, there are two pairs of passengers already sitting on the boat.

One of the pair, Shawn and his party had seen before - the woman with long wavy hair, wearing a red dress, a **** and mysterious temperament, and the burly man who followed her, a burly man with a fierce face, who was suspected of being an explorer ~lightnovelpub.net~ Another pair not seen before. The young man had his chestnut hair neatly combed back and wore a plaid suit with a handsome appearance. Sitting beside him was a man wearing a straw hat with soft hair under the straw hat. He looked very beautiful and gentle, and seemed to be a little shy. woman.

At this moment, the young man is looking at Avalon Island with a harbor and a lighthouse in the distance, frowning slightly, as if thinking about something.

Walking to the side of the boat, Sean and Moonlight were very gentlemen helping Sarah's family to board the boat.

"Thank you, guys." After getting on the boat, Sarah took Sean's hand and patted the back of his hand quite warmly.

It feels like I'm very familiar with Sarah's family, like relatives traveling together.

As soon as they were seated, the young man rowing stood up and counted the number "One, two, three..."

When he counted to eleven, he murmured, "There's one more..."

"Wait!" The people who were already sitting on the boat turned to look at the figure who was going down the gangway.

"I wanted to take a nap, but I didn't expect to oversleep!" The voice, tone and figure were all very familiar.

Solomon, a squat, well-known European detective with a mustache, walked down a little embarrassedly with his luggage.
