Urban Legends: The Legacy of Ancient Civilizations
Chapter 8 The Imprisoned Soul
"Boss, the future is unclear now, so the more people, the better. I have some elite men who will be here soon.
They had been delayed due to other matters and arrived one day later than the main force. "
Ivan's back-up move was very intriguing. He had obviously predicted Jiang Yingxue's subsequent troop surge operation, and his desire to control the situation was much higher than expected.
It is no exaggeration to say that Ivan is determined to get what is in the secret base.
Although Ivan's statement was vague, this kind of hidden behavior was indeed dangerous, and Jiang Yingxue had to reassess Ivan's risk.
Jiang Yingxue lowered her head and was silent in thought, as if she had agreed to Ivan's suggestion to wait. Bai Ning looked at the people around him casually. Without Ivan's order, they did stand still to a certain extent.
Obviously, even though they knew very well that Ivan was just a subcontractor for Jiang Yingxue's money, Ivan's leadership skills indeed exceeded everyone's expectations.
After all, the leader of the rebellious soldiers still has some authority to "disobey the emperor's orders".
In this slightly fatal silence, a burst of noise suddenly came from the periphery of the crowd, causing everyone to turn their heads to look.
"Hey. The guy's here. It's not too late.
Third child, you almost delayed the boss’s important event, why don’t you come and apologize to the boss? "
Seeing the coming figure, Ivan's face became more smiley. The yellow teeth leaking out of his gaping mouth could not diminish any of his self-confidence.
"Ivan, the second child ate a bear and had diarrhea on the way, so we were delayed for some time. If we can pay more for travel, we don't have to eat wild bears to satisfy our hunger."
The third child in Ivan's mouth has curly yellow hair, a hooked nose, and a sinister smile on his face. Overall, it looks like he has more than ten lives in his hands.
As for the dick that can eat bears alive, the whole person is hidden in a hood and looks very mysterious. The arms, legs, and even the back are all bulging, and there are long and narrow marks of knives. He must be a master of using knives.
The dozen or so new elites gathered around and listened to Ivan's excited chatter for a few more minutes before they dispersed.
After Ivan finished flexing his muscles, the smile on his face became more easy-going, which truly confirmed the classic saying that a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake.
The deal is done, and risk assessment has no meaning anymore. The current situation is still just a shadow puppet show between each other through the window paper. Even if Jiang Yingxue doesn't want to face it, she still has to face it bravely.
Preparations for going down the cave have been completed. The small civilian office has been completely emptied. Under the accumulation of stones and wood, it has become a heavy machine gun firepower point. There are also several RPGs leaning on the side. It is a very good place. Fire stop point.
At this time, the air pump outside had injected a large amount of fresh air into the base. Everyone no longer wore gas masks and just hung them around their waists.
Even if Ivan has strong support again, all the dirty work will still be done by his men. This behavior that seems to be afraid of the Aaron trio is actually a disguised act of overall control.
Controlling the direction of the situation to the greatest extent does not necessarily require arrogant orders and prohibitions. Pretending to be weak is the implicit control method Ivan often uses.
Ivan's uncontrollable nature of smiling face is like a poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity. Jiang Yingxue is not weak enough to regret this investment move, but it does make her feel quite uncomfortable.
Jiang Yingxue, whose eyes were even sharper, just gave Aaron a silent wink. This was the complete devolution of the temporary supreme decision-making power, and Aaron had the right to eliminate all possible hidden dangers on his own.
With the blessing of powerful searchlights, the exploration within the secret base progressed very quickly. A large area was quickly searched, but there was still no trace of the suture monster, as if it suddenly disappeared.
"Ivan, that biochemical laboratory is definitely not the whole of this secret base. Where is the place used to restrain spirits?"
The addition of Aaron and the others greatly enhanced the professionalism of the team, but everyone was flying around like headless flies at this time, unable to grasp the core area at all.
"To be honest, I'm not too sure. This base is so big. As long as we have the patience to search everything, everything will come to light."
It was completely impossible to tell whether Ivan was being perfunctory. Anyway, his attitude at this time was quite upright, and he couldn't see any evil intentions. This made Jiang Yingxue who asked the question even more bored.
Obviously, even if Ivan strengthens his power, Aaron and the others still make Ivan feel a strong external threat, and he is afraid that he will not be able to grasp the final fruits of victory.
"Ivan, one of these research results is very attractive and makes you very thirsty.
If you want to secretly take away this core research secret and use some leftovers to kill others, this idea is extremely short-sighted.
Whether it is the follow-up analysis of secrets or the desire to use these secrets for profit in the future, the Jiang family consortium cannot be bypassed.
Therefore, before you talked perfunctorily about win-win cooperation, I hope you can completely change your attitude. "
The game between Bai Ning and Ivan has become close to a zero-sum game. Even if this is just a front-end research in the Tunguska region, Bai Ning does not want it to develop.
Bai Ning's persuasion didn't make Jiang Yingxue express his position, but it made the smile on Ivan's face even brighter.
In Ivan's view at this time, once the two sides finally fight, there will only be a few more ownerless corpses in this secret base.
The reallocation of the strengths of the two parties will inevitably usher in a new round of negotiations, and Bai Ning's attitude is most likely the result of Jiang Yingxue's instruction.
"Bai, my friend, when did I lie to you?
The boss's funds and equipment are both in place, and everyone is now working together to achieve a good cooperation result. "
Ivan pretended to be confused while pretending to understand. His words were very beautiful, and his hints were also very clear. It was very obvious that he would not let the rabbit out of sight.
Bai Ning's mention of Ivan was just a rhetorical arrangement, so how could it really be possible for Ivan to have a mental advantage?
“Ivan, no matter what secrets your grandfather told you, the information you have is only a very limited fragment.
The sleep deprivation experiment did not occur out of thin air, nor was it a bold attempt by a genius on a whim. It was nothing more than a systematic study of a specific paranormal discovery, and it might even be just some very one-sided tentative research.
Judging from the scale of this secret base, the research results are very divergent, and may even open the door to a certain supernatural research. "
Bai Ning's words instantly reduced the value of Ivan's existence to an extremely low level, and his bargaining chips were severely underestimated. Ivan still did not express his displeasure.
"Friend, I know that the boss has many other investment projects, and you also have some investments that I don't know about."
Ivan stopped as soon as he clicked, and the meaning was already clear. No matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat, so just say whether you want it or not.
"Ivan, I can tell you very clearly that the ultimate purpose of my trip is this. The content of your exploration is just a derivative surprise.
Look, what is this? "
In order to prevent Ivan's short-sighted behavior from affecting the overall situation and to set a higher goal for him, Bai Ning took out the red crystal core and shook it in front of Ivan's eyes, making him unable to move away anymore. Eye.
"Okay. I said..."
Just when Ivan was about to reveal more secrets, a sharp roar suddenly came from the team's guard post, and gunshots rang out immediately. Xiaohu's hand-held Gatling also began to spit out crazy tongues of fire, and there was a tinkling sound of falling bullet shells. Let more people start shooting.
The wall in the direction of the enemy attack had been completely smashed, but no body fragments of the Stitch Monster were found in the smoke and dust. The attack just now had obviously failed.
"Stop shooting."
A few seconds later, Aaron sternly stopped shooting and quickly stepped forward to inspect. It was obvious that he found nothing.
Faced with this sudden attack, Bai Ning was also a little confused. He didn't know whether it happened by chance or whether the crystal core triggered the suture monster lurking in the dark.
"The tiger moved very quickly and disappeared after being shot."
After Aaron's communication, he fed back the stress process just now, which made everyone's brows relax.
Heavy firepower is effective against the suture monster. As long as the focused fire is successful, the suture monster will definitely be killed.
"I know where the core part of spiritual body research is."
Under the signal from Bai Ning's eyes, Ivan continued the previous topic. The secret was not big, but it did quench his thirst in a race against time.
"Then let's lead the way and make the team neater."
The departure of the Stitch Monster did not make Bai Ning relax his vigilance. In a very rare moment, he directly overstepped Jiang Yingxue's command and ordered Ivan to start accelerating the overall progress of the team.
"What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that the spirit body will accelerate away from the shackles of the biochemical armor and become a more terrifying problem?"
Jiang Yingxue understood what Bai Ning was afraid of and told it frankly.
Indeed. The spirit body can make ordinary people in a large area go crazy and frighten to death, which is obviously a greater threat to everyone.
"It's just an immature guess at the moment, and there's nothing wrong with accelerating the progress."
Bai Ning didn't want to discuss this issue in depth, so he responded rather perfunctorily. The team speeded up and followed Ivan to the depths of the secret base.
In the layout of the entire building, the Spiritual Body Research Department was deliberately hidden from the beginning of the design. After going back and forth through several confusing forks, everyone came to an area that had never been reached before.
The buildings here all have signs of damage, large or small, and the ruins from decades ago silently tell the tragic scene here.
They had been delayed due to other matters and arrived one day later than the main force. "
Ivan's back-up move was very intriguing. He had obviously predicted Jiang Yingxue's subsequent troop surge operation, and his desire to control the situation was much higher than expected.
