The end of the world: mountain and sea disasters - #165 - Chapter 165 Alien World

Take some rest in the hotel.

After eating and drinking, Yu Ke, who had fully recovered, put on his combat uniform and headed to the intersection of Shuangqiao District.

The person in charge of the on-site investigation was Captain Wu Huai of the Special Service Section of the Shanqing Municipal Disaster Prevention Bureau. The two contacted each other through mobile phones before departure.

According to the summary of previous investigation reports, although the time period for ghosts to appear has continued to extend as the situation worsened, it is still concentrated between 10 o’clock at night and 1 o’clock in the morning.

Therefore, Shanqing City officials will implement curfews in areas where ghosts are found to try to keep ordinary people away from dangerous times.

It is now eight o’clock in the evening, and there is still some time before the active period of ghosts. Yu Ke is going to meet up with Captain Wu to learn more about the incident for follow-up actions.

After taking a taxi to Shuangqiao District, Yu Ke walked to the intersection holding an umbrella.

The curfew period has not yet entered, and this area is a commercial area with a lot of traffic in the city, with many pedestrians coming and going.

What surprised Yu Ke was that even though traces of ghosts had been found here, the number of pedestrians still did not decrease, and all kinds of shops were open. It must be that Shanqing City officials have not yet announced the news of ghosts interfering in the real world.

The light snow and the neon lights shining at the intersection add a different kind of beauty to the place.

Above the head is a mechanical flying fish that is constantly swimming, controlled by an intelligent system, and constantly placing various advertisements.

He sidestepped around several female anchors holding selfie sticks and dressed in trendy clothes who came towards him.

Yu Ke heard them discussing with the audience in the live broadcast room the Hundred Ghost Night Parade incident that happened here not long ago. They said that they had booked a room at a nearby hotel tonight and wanted to have a close encounter with the supernatural phenomenon. The whole job.

Obviously, ghosts that have not attacked humans so far have been labeled as “harmless” in the eyes of some people, and then regarded as a tool to attract popularity.

This is like a monster city in Beijing and Hangzhou, the core of which is the skeleton of a giant beast.

It looks scary, but in fact it attracts a large number of tourists every day just to satisfy their curiosity.

It would be fine if they were “harmless”, but the restrictions on these ghosts are gradually being lifted. If the problem cannot be solved in a short time, the Disaster Prevention Bureau will probably consider announcing the bad news to the citizens.

Following the address, we came to a restaurant not far from the intersection. This place has been reserved by the Disaster Prevention Bureau for temporary storage of various equipment that may be used later. The team led by Wu Huai also assembled here. Operations will not begin until the curfew begins.

After sending a message to Wu Huai, the store door was quickly opened from the inside.

The person who opened the door was a man who looked to be about thirty years old, wearing a long black trench coat, with fluffy hair with some natural curls.

The comfortable heating mixed with the aroma of food hit his face. Looking into the room, Yu Ke saw two tables of special service officers wearing Disaster Prevention Bureau uniforms. The tables were filled with barbecues, fruit plates and other things. The atmosphere was very good.

“We’re going to face the ghosts directly later. Let’s have a good meal first to calm down what we’re doing in a daze, without making room for Consultant Yu.”

The man who opened the door for Yu Ke earlier greeted everyone in the room. Immediately, someone stood up to move a chair, then turned around and stretched out his hand, “

“Wu Huai, the current captain of the Sixth Special Service Team, I am honored to cooperate with you to investigate this incident. The hunting log series videos are very interesting. We have many fans of yours in our team, especially the deputy captain. I know you will participate tonight. All the actions were very exciting.”

“Just call me Yu Ke. I hope I can help you when I come here.”

Having never seen a ghost with his own eyes, Yu Ke didn’t finish his words, which would make both parties embarrassed.

“In half an hour, the intersection and surrounding areas will enter the curfew period. We will start setting up the scene when ordinary people leave. Before that, please wait here.”

Taking Yu Ke to sit down in the restaurant, Wu Huai briefly explained their goals for tonight.

“If the ghosts that appear tonight can still interfere with the real world, we will work together to kill them, collect the remains and hand them over to the research department to analyze these monsters and figure out where they came from.”

The main reason why the Night Parade of Hundred Ghosts has been happening in Shanqing City for such a long time is that the Disaster Prevention Bureau cannot touch these monsters at all. They seem to exist in two different spaces from the real world.

Just based on the horrifying sight when they appeared, no valuable clues could be analyzed at all.

Now that these monsters have begun to interfere in the real world, it is actually good news for the Disaster Prevention Bureau.

If the monster is killed, it will die.

As long as they can collect some of the corpses, they will have the possibility to learn more about these ghosts and trace their origins.

“I understand. I don’t dare to say anything else. I’m fairly confident in fighting.”

Picking up an unopened can of soda, he put two pieces of pineapple into his mouth, Yu Ke shrugged and said.

Relaxed body movements, casual eating and drinking personality.

The tense atmosphere in the restaurant due to Yu Ke’s arrival immediately dissipated. Taking advantage of the fact that there was still some time before the curfew, the members of the Special Service Section asked about the secret cave deep in the Jinghu Forest.

The video on the Yuntu website can be seen across the country. Yu Ke’s fierce battle with the two-headed dragon in the secret realm of the catacombs, and his initiative to share information about the catacombs, made his reputation spread at an astonishing speed.

For the first time, Yu Ke felt his reputation within the Disaster Prevention Bureau up close. He did not put on airs and patiently explained to them all kinds of information in the secret realm of the cave. He also entrusted himself to the Logistics Department of the Disaster Prevention Bureau not long ago. Cheng took out the dragon tooth dagger, causing constant exclamations.

“I’m really sorry. Everyone has been a little depressed recently. When I heard that a strong person from the bureau came to assist in the investigation, I felt a little excited, which made you laugh.”

Wu Huai looked at the team members gathered around to test the strength of the Dragon Tooth Dagger. He raised his hand to cover his forehead with a helpless expression.

“I just arrived in Shanqing City this afternoon. My knowledge about the Night Parade of Hundred Ghosts is limited to the information given to me by Li Ming. The information provided in it is limited. I asked some questions directly… I didn’t see anything about it in the information. To investigate the origin of these ghosts, have you not tried to analyze these ghosts through some special magic methods?”

Glancing at the team members whose attention was attracted by the Dragon Tooth Dagger, Yu Ke moved his chair next to Wu Huai and asked directly.

These words may sound harsh, as if they are doubting the capabilities of the Shanqing City Disaster Prevention Bureau, but they are also what Yu Ke thinks in his heart.

You must know that Shanqing City and Beijing-Hangzhou City are both first-tier giant cities in the country. The power of the Disaster Prevention Bureau stationed here is definitely not weak, not to mention that there are strong guards at the guard level.

How could you just watch a supernatural incident turn into what it is today?

Judging from the behavior of Fang Xuanhe and his disciples at the ruins, the top officials of the official government must have cooperated with these extraordinary beings or practitioners who existed before the cataclysm.

Yu Ke is convinced that there must be many extraordinary people in Shanqing City who have mastered similar skills. Maybe Shanqing Guards is the leader in this area. Even if it is not good enough, he should launch relevant investigations into the existence of ghosts, right?

As a result, the report sent by Li Ming was full of various video files. After reading it, Yu Ke thought that the Shanqing City Disaster Prevention Bureau was deliberately guarding him. Who would have thought that they really didn’t know.

“You are a special adviser. It is really embarrassing to hide some things. In fact, in recent months, the alien world in the Shanqing area has not been peaceful. In order to suppress those bastards, we have lost a lot of manpower. The Special Service Section Of the ten captains, only three are still able to participate in combat missions. The manpower in other departments is also damaged, and even the guards cannot come out for some reason. “

Faced with Yu Ke’s inquiry, Wu Huai sighed and spoke in a lowered voice.

Hearing the news, even Yu Ke’s eyes widened, and the meat skewer on hand stopped in his mouth, with a face full of surprise.

His original intention was to say that the Disaster Prevention Bureau was not concerned about the “Hundred Ghosts Night Parade” incident.

Who would have thought that there would be such breaking news.

But what is the origin of this so-called alien world that can force Shanqing City officials to do this?

“Uh, I forgot. You were a forest hunter before and have never been exposed to this aspect. There are top powerhouses like Fang Tianshi in the Beijing-Hangzhou area. No one dares to cause trouble. In short, you are just a bunch of people. The gangsters are constantly fighting in the Shanqing area for the ‘secret skills’ passed down hundreds of years ago, and there are many strangers from other regions. They are extraordinary people who have inherited their masters.”

Thinking of Yu Ke’s identity, Wu Huai briefly explained the recent chaos in Shanqing City.

Although most of the information is still confidential, some of the content revealed by Wu Huai still revealed to Yu Ke the “Alien World” hidden on the other side of this world.

Ancient ruins, temple and underground palace, Red Ghost Face, Pure Lotus Way, Fang Xuanhe

These things that Yu Ke came into contact with all existed in this world before the great cataclysm.

This made him realize that the world he traveled through contained many things that ordinary people could not access.

Because the era of cataclysm has arrived, strong men with extraordinary abilities have begun to appear among ordinary people, and the original balance has been broken. This has caused the barrier between the alien world and ordinary people in Wu Huai’s mouth to gradually collapse.

It’s just that Yu Ke has been busy with his own affairs and has little chance to contact him.

“I have no right to disclose specific information. Currently, the investigation team sent by the General Administration of Disaster Prevention is responsible for this matter. Only then can we mobilize a large number of manpower to deal with the Hundred Ghost Night Parade incident.”

Wu Huai knew what was the most important thing now, so he stopped mentioning the alien world and brought the topic back.

“I see. I wonder why the investigation team sent by the General Administration has not gained anything yet. It turns out that their focus is not here at all.”

Throwing the iron pick into the tray, Yu Ke’s confusion was mostly resolved.

There is no doubt that the chaos that occurred in Shanqing City some time ago may be taken more seriously by the General Administration of Disaster Prevention than the Night Parade of Hundred Ghosts. Therefore, the investigation team came to Shanqing City under the pretext of dealing with supernatural events. The real purpose In fact, it is to suppress chaos.

Most of the extraordinary beings Wu Huai mentioned who had the inheritance of their masters were also mixed with some old monsters who had become famous before the cataclysm, otherwise the situation would not have gotten so out of control.

Of course, this is a judgment made when the number of ghosts can be counted on one hand, their duration is extremely short, and they have not yet interfered with the real world.

Things have changed.

Considering that the number of ghosts has increased significantly, their frequency and time of appearance have also continued to increase, and they have even begun to invade reality.

The Shanqing City Disaster Prevention Bureau had to temporarily adjust its work focus.

As for why extraordinary people are not dispatched from other regions to assist in the operation.

The reason is simple. Fang Xuanhe is in charge of the nearest Beijing-Hangzhou city. Recently, there has been constant chaos and a serious shortage of manpower. Both the Pandora incident and the Haisen Tower attack almost turned into large-scale disasters. The former even used the army. Barely suppressed, let alone other areas.

It can only be said that every family has sutras that are difficult to recite.

In fact, this is the main reason why the Shanqing City Disaster Prevention Bureau specifically requested that Yu Ke participate in the investigation.

Others may not know it, but within the Disaster Prevention Bureau, Yu Ke’s performance in several incidents in the Beijing-Hangzhou area can be clearly stated.

Several times, the situation that was on the verge of collapse was forcibly pulled back from the edge of the cliff.

This wisdom and strength have undoubtedly been tested.

During the conversation between the two, the door of the restaurant was pushed open. A well-proportioned girl with two buns and a sky-blue cheongsam ran into the restaurant quickly and shouted in an old-school drawl,

“Children, don’t eat. The area has begun to be cleared outside. We are ready to start work. We are going to have a good fight tonight!”

As soon as she finished speaking, the girl noticed the stranger sitting next to Wu Huai. She was stunned for two seconds. Then she seemed to have thought of something and turned her eyes to the captain next to her. The latter just nodded indifferently.

Before Yu Ke could stand up and say hello, the girl turned around and ran out, and she could still vaguely hear an annoyed scream coming back.

Social death often occurs in just a few seconds.

“She is the vice-captain, Yang Chunxiao. She calls herself a fan of yours. She signs in and leaves likes and comments under your videos every day. She heard that you were coming to participate in the operation, and even made a special appearance. Now I’m afraid it’s too late.”

Wu Huai’s mouth was filled with an irrepressible smile. He deliberately did not mention to the deputy captain that Yu Ke had arrived at the restaurant, just to give the deputy captain a “surprise”.

Fortunately, Yang Chunxiao still understood the seriousness of the matter and returned without running far away. However, he had a mask on his face that he got from nowhere. He pretended that nothing had happened and reported again as if the timeline had been reset. The situation of clearing outside.

It’s close to curfew.

The mechanical flying fish originally used to promote advertisements instead began broadcasting curfew announcements.

The police intervened to manage traffic and blocked off all areas around the intersection, strictly prohibiting the entry and exit of any unofficial people or vehicles.

Because several rounds of notices were sent out in advance, the situation at the scene was quite normal. Crowds of people were leaving the intersection one after another, and the surrounding shops were closed. A large number of police officers carried holographic projection devices and began to set up to avoid what would happen later. The accident caused panic among residents.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner, just waiting for the ghost to show up!
