The legend of Tiga

Chapter 2101 Sphia's Underground Conspiracy

Sphia Sphere!
Since it appeared on Mars two months ago, it has been given special attention by TPC. As the captain of the Super Victory Team, Kibi Tsunesuke has naturally focused on understanding the Sphia Sphere. He has read the information issued many times and can recite almost every punctuation mark. Therefore, he is naturally very familiar with the characteristics of the Sphia Sphere.

During this period, TPC's technical department processed nearly a thousand photos taken from various angles in the Mariner Valley on Mars and a video with a total length of more than 30 minutes. After removing the "glowing" special effects from the photos, the true appearance of the Sphia Sphere was revealed.

To be honest, when Kibi Tsunade first saw the information, his first impression of the Sphia Sphere was: ugly!

The glowing Sphia sphere flying at high speed gives people a special sense of beauty.

But when turned into a still photo and the light on the surface is removed, the Sphia Sphere looks a bit ugly.

The surface is not so smooth, but rather rough and uneven. The center is bulging and pearly white in color, while the slightly concave edges have a circle of emerald green lines.

The most eye-catching thing is the appearance of the Sphia spheres. Each one is an oval-shaped cell, and each shape has slight differences. When flying at high speed in the universe or in the air, they are squeezed together and look a bit like a pineapple.

The scale from the shell of Daygalen in the pit looks about 70% similar to the Sphia sphere in both color and appearance.

Is this a coincidence, or
For a moment, many bad guesses emerged in Kibi Kosuke's mind, and his already bad complexion became even worse.

Not long after, several transport planes arrived and landed on the ground not far away in a vertical take-off and landing posture. As soon as the rear door was opened, two teams of soldiers in biological protection suits rushed out of the cabin carrying boxes, and then dispersed and began to search for monster fragments on the ground and carry out recovery operations. After searching several times, they will also carry out disinfection operations to prevent future troubles.

This very special fragment was recovered and packed immediately, and then sent to TPC's biological laboratory by a special person and plane for inspection.

After the plane carrying the debris that could cause a stir took off, Qianye Cheng withdrew his gaze and looked at the underground city construction site that had collapsed by more than half. He said, "The Sphia sphere drilled into the ground, maybe it's not just hidden."

This made Xibi Gangsuke nodded solemnly and said, "Do you have any guesses?"

"It's hard to say now. Let's wait for the test results to come out. However." Qianye Cheng turned his head and looked at the sunset in the sky, and said: "The number of sleeping monsters in the earth's strata over billions of years is beyond imagination. Many died in their sleep and merged with the surroundings, but some of them can keep their cells active for a long time."

This is not just Chiba Makoto's imagination, but a nightmare that the super ancient civilization once experienced.

Originally, the super ancient civilization was developing well, but suddenly, monsters emerged from the ground one after another, interrupting the rapid development of the super ancient civilization. The super ancient civilization was exhausted from dealing with more and more monsters, until the giant of light accompanied by starlight landed, which curbed the retreat of the super ancient civilization and turned it from defense to offense.

When the entire civilization was at its most critical moment, the connections between the various landmasses were almost cut off, and people had to hide underground or in fortresses to survive.

This is also the reason why a large portion of the remains of ultra-ancient civilizations excavated in recent years are in caves or underground.

Nowadays, humans complain and are terrified when monsters appear occasionally. However, in ancient times, monsters did not appear only once every ten days, half a month, or several months. Instead, monsters emerged from the ground and fell from the sky every day, and there might even be several monsters appearing in a single day.

To be frank, the underground monsters that have appeared from 2007 to the present are less than a fraction of those that appeared in the ancient times. Are these all the monsters inside the earth?
The answer must be no.

There are also many monsters sleeping deep underground, separated from the ground by thick rock layers, forming a separate habitat.

Think about it, the deepest depth humans have drilled so far is less than 20,000 meters, or 20 kilometers, while the radius of the earth is 6,400 kilometers, which is only one-three hundred and twenty-one percent.

If we compare it to humans, this depth hasn't even broken the skin, so how can we discover how much is under the skin?

"If the Sphia Sphere is targeting them"

Although Chiba Makoto did not say it explicitly, Kibi Kosuke was not a fool and could naturally imagine the terrible outcome that Chiba Makoto was thinking of.

That is, the Sphia Sphere drilled into the ground for those underground monsters that have been sleeping since ancient times. Even if the monsters are not transformed into biological weapons controlled by them, simply awakening the monsters is enough to pose a great threat to humans.

Just look at Daigalen. It can dig a hole in the ground and cause a magnitude 3 or 4 earthquake on the ground. After coming out, it will feed on humans. If Tiga had not appeared in time and destroyed it, and if Daigalen had not been attracted by the PW wave and did not appear in the densely populated Aoba City, who knows how many people would have suffered misfortune.

This is just one monster. If there are more, even dozens, hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands of monsters appearing together like when the darkness awakens, the earth will face another huge catastrophe.

As Kibi Kosuke thought about the tragic doomsday situation seven years ago, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.

That would be terrible.

I just hope things aren't that bad!
Kihiko Tsunosuke's mood became so heavy that even his steps seemed particularly difficult. As soon as he reached the transport plane, he saw Kariya Yukihei commanding a team of police soldiers to escort the dejected security personnel of Tachibana Company into the car. They were no longer as fierce and arrogant as they were ten or twenty minutes ago.

These people will face multiple charges including attacking the Super Victory Team and endangering public safety. Technicians from Tachibana Company have also been temporarily detained for questioning and investigation.

As for the culprit of this monster incident, President Tachibana, he has been handcuffed and escorted by two police soldiers holding their arms.

Because of his willful behavior, not only did he destroy TPC's anti-monster combat plan, causing the hard work of hundreds of people to go to waste, but he also threatened the lives of the residents of Aoba City and hundreds of employees of Tachibana Company in the underground city project.

This is not something that can be resolved by simply bowing and apologizing. Otherwise, wouldn't everyone disregard other people's lives for their own selfish desires?
You have to know that this is a monster. If we are not careful, hundreds of people will be killed or injured, and billions of economic losses will occur. Who can take this responsibility?
No one can afford it. No one can bear it.

Not to mention, no matter who caused the trouble, people will eventually blame TPC.

No matter how much we explain or emphasize, they will still say, "Why don't you do that?" and so on, blaming it on TPC's inadequate management.

Therefore, don’t even think about the possibility that you will profit while TPC will take the blame.

Such a huge disaster cannot be easily let off with just a "dream" or "understanding". A heavy price must be paid to warn future generations not to commit the same mistake.

Just like Keigo Masaki, although it was not announced to the public, people with "power" can still know the full picture of the matter.

The collapse of the thriving Sadiko in an instant is the best warning to those who are ready to make further moves.

Still, this world is full of huge disparities. Some people can drive into the palace, while others can't even get a ticket.

Just because TPC can study the fragments of the giant stone statue doesn't mean you can do the same. Even looking at it for a second longer would be a sin.

Originally, everyone was worried about the monster, and no one wanted the monster to wake up or even appear. But you not only stimulated the monster, but also woke it up. This is really asking for trouble. His face is close to me, so there is no reason not to fight.

Therefore, after Nakajima Tsutomu reported what happened here, TPC immediately sent a team of people over and found Yukihira Kariya who was lucky enough to avoid the collapse. Then, under the command of Yukihira Kariya, they arrested those who dared to attack the Super Victory Team. They were all put into the car one by one and would be locked up for at least ten days to half a month, or even a year and a half.

As for President Tachibana, if nothing unexpected happens, he will probably be behind bars dreaming about the dungeon for a long time.

At this time, President Tachibana, who was almost dragged away by two soldiers, also saw Chiba Makoto. He almost jumped up and rushed forward with such great strength that if the two soldiers had not held him tightly enough, he would have been able to break free.

The usually elegant President Tachibana was struggling desperately, shouting at the top of his lungs: "Why do you want to destroy the monster now? Why don't you kill the monster earlier? Why do you have to delay?"

Two tall and strong soldiers pushed him back with great force and dragged him into the car, while President Tachibana struggled hard and kept shouting. His unwillingness and anger were very strong.

Chiba Makoto watched coldly as President Tachibana was forced into the car, the door was closed, and his voice was shut as well. Then the car started and carried him away quickly until he could no longer be seen.

Kibi Gosuke looked at the crazy President Tachibana and sighed, "How can you blame others? It's obvious that everything was caused by his willful behavior. If he had listened to some advice, he wouldn't have ended up like this."

"People always blame others when something goes wrong, saying things like 'Why didn't you tell me earlier' or 'It's all your fault'. It's too normal."

Chiba Makoto shrugged, not paying any attention to President Tachibana's barking of incompetence.

When I fail, I always want to find a way to vent.

For example, if you lose a game, even if it's because you are a bad player, you will vent your anger on the keyboard and mouse, smashing them loudly, instead of studying hard or simply changing games.

This kind of thing is very normal.

Kibi Tsunade smiled and shook his head. He tried to persuade him again and again, but President Tachibana wouldn't listen at all. Instead, he said that he was old and too timid and only deserved to stay in his comfort zone and wait for brave people to make a name for themselves.

Now it seems that the sky has not been broken through, but it has collapsed.

It’s a pity for this underground city.

“I really hope it can continue.”

This is what Kihiko Tsunade really thinks. Although humans are expanding into extraterrestrial space, at least in the next hundred years, humans still have to rely on the Earth for survival.

Although the earth is large, there are not many habitable places.

Especially these islands, not to mention the frequent volcanoes and earthquakes, the habitable areas are all in the narrow strips on the edge, and they have long relied on land reclamation to create space. If they can expand underground, they can also expand their living space.

"Such a large project, with so much investment, how can we give up just because of a little setback, not to mention..." Qianye Cheng turned his head and said with a smile: "Qingye City should be the most curious place in the short term."

"Yeah, that's true." Kibi Kosuke thought about it and nodded in agreement.

After ten years of continuous fighting against monsters, we have learned one thing: where a monster has appeared, a second monster will not appear in a short period of time.

As for how long this time will be, that is not certain.

So, the underground city project will probably continue. I hope it will be successful and look forward to seeing it completed as soon as possible.

Kibi Kosuke thought to himself.

The setting sun falls below the horizon, and the bright moon rises above, accompanied by the stars.

The night was gradually deepening, but Chiba Makoto did not rest. Instead, he followed a soldier through the long corridor. The sound of his footsteps seemed particularly loud in the silence.

When they arrived at an iron gate, the soldier took out his ID card and swiped the gate open. Then he stood aside and closed the iron gate after Chiba Makoto walked in.

The room inside the door was only ten square meters, with only a table and two chairs, both fixed to the floor, facing the front and back doors.

A few seconds after Chiba Makoto walked in, the door opposite opened and President Tachibana, who had been captured during the day, came in accompanied by a soldier and his handcuffs were uncuffed.

The soldier then saluted Chiba Makoto and walked out, leaving only the two of them in the room.

Chiba Makoto didn't say anything, and President Tachibana also stared at him. The two of them just looked at each other across the table.

After a long while, when the visiting time was already halfway through, President Tachibana finally couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing here? Are you here to laugh at me? Or do you have other intentions?"

"Are you trying to dress yourself up as a victim?" Qianye Cheng chuckled, "Or do you think I don't understand the twists and turns here?"

Although the matter is serious, everything depends on the person.

For ordinary people, it was like the sky falling, but for those who were in charge of a billion-dollar project, it was not a small matter, but it was not a big deal either.

Even if you are eventually sentenced to prison, the treatment you receive in prison will be different.

That's the beauty of money.

President Tachibana stared at Chiba Makoto for a long time, and his indignant expression instantly turned into a smile. He said, "So you want to cooperate?"

It's not about kicking someone when they're down, it must be about wanting to help someone in need, otherwise, who would have the time to hang out here in the middle of the night?

There must be something going on!
