Gold sale

The moment Professor Wu's voice fell, the players' bodies froze, and their expressions changed suddenly.

Looking at the reactions of these people, Professor Wu knew that he had guessed right.

I didn't expect him to make such a low-level mistake as smart as him.

Without any evidence, he almost trusted the other party just like that.Not only did he tell them about the existence of the sharks, but he also wanted to discuss cooperation with them, which was really aggressive.

Realizing that he was cheated, Professor Wu couldn't help becoming angry: "Who the hell are you? What's your purpose..."

Before he finished speaking, his body suddenly froze, and then he fell straight to the ground.

"Don't worry, it's just an anesthetic."

Looking at the syringe stuck in the back of Professor Wu's neck, the players looked up at Wu Guang standing behind him.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Wu Guang puffed up his chest and said confidently: "At this time, I can only faint."

Hearing this, sighs came one after another in the house.

At the beginning, when Su Ji claimed to be an agent of the CIA, everyone thought that he might be exposed, but they never expected him to be fooled.

Just when everyone thought they were safe and sound, it turned out that Professor Wu would suddenly have doubts about their identities.

The inversions are fickle and thrilling.

After calming down, Shao Feng stroked his chin and said, "So, the rare sea creature that cured the old man in 90A actually refers to the mermaid?"

Glancing at the progress bar of the main line that has risen to 70%, Cheng Xuyuan pushed his glasses, "It should be like this."

Su Ji: "Before I came here, I went to the VIP kitchen. Through the staff there, I learned that the old man's secretary would come to the kitchen every night around 12 o'clock every night to help his boss make supper, and no other people in the kitchen were allowed. People are there."

Wuchang frowned, "You mean... the old man's supper is actually mermaid meat?"

"Eight and nine are not far from ten."

Su Ji paused and said, "Because the kitchen staff told me today that he saw someone pushing a big black barrel out of the kitchen elevator that day after the night shift."

"The freight elevator can only stop two floors down. Except for the garbage disposal center on the second floor, it can only go to the warehouse on the ground floor."

Hearing this, the players suffocated.If this is the case, it would be too scary!

It's fine if it's just an ordinary fish, but this is a mermaid!Looking at it resembling a human upper body, wouldn't the secretary panic when he hit it?

After feeling emotional for a while, Wu Guang suddenly remembered something again, "But... mermaids can cure diseases? Is there such a thing in the legend?"

Cheng Xuyuan shook his head, "I've only heard that the mausoleum of the first emperor of Qin used the oil of sharks as an everlasting lamp, which can last for ten thousand years. As for the saying that eating shark meat can cure diseases is the first time I've heard of it."

"Isn't the most famous saying that shark tears can turn into pearls?"

Shao Feng took over the conversation: "I remember when I was a child, I heard the story of "The Shark Weeping Pearl". It seems that a shark gave him a plate of pearls by crying in order to repay a human being who helped him."

"You're all right. Whether it's weeping tears into pearls or the thousand-year-old mermaid lamp oil, these are all recorded in ancient books such as "Sou Shen Ji" and "Historical Records."

Xu Hui paused as she spoke, "But besides the most widely circulated folklore, there are actually rumors that eating the meat of a mermaid can lead to immortality."

"Speaking of immortality," Su Ji said, "I remember that in "Onmyoji", eight hundred nuns seem to be immortal because they ate mermaid meat by mistake."

Xu Hui nodded, "Actually, there has always been a legend in Island R that eating mermaid meat can lead to immortality."

"Although the authenticity and specific origin of the legend cannot be verified, judging from Mr. Chang's recovery performance and Professor Wu's words just now, these claims may not be groundless."

"Even if mermaid meat can't achieve immortality, it does have some miraculous therapeutic effect against diseases."

"Indeed." Su Ji nodded in agreement, otherwise Professor Wu and the others wouldn't have taken such a big risk to do this research.

Immortality is the dream of many emperors for thousands of years.

Whether it is Emperor Jiajing who became obsessed with alchemy and Taoism in order to treat infertility, Qin Shihuang who sent Xu Fu to the east to seek the elixir of life, or Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Taizong who possessed great talents, they could not escape the "long live, long live, long live, long live, long live" in the end. years old" dream.

If they can really research the secret of longevity, then these people will also be able to leave their names in the history of mankind through the ages.

only……

"Why is the main plot still stuck at 70%?"

Wu Guang was puzzled, "Hasn't Su Ji already deduced that CS Shipping Company and Professor Wu's scientific research team used mermaids as experiments to treat diseases?"

Hearing this, the players realized something was wrong.

Yes, based on past experience.The main story line should be almost over when the plot is pushed to this level, why is it only 70% now?

Su Ji said calmly: "Because the main storyline is "The Secret of the Tiangong" and not "The Secret of the CEO of the CS Shipping Company". The progress bar of the main storyline will not move until the real reason for the disappearance of the Shenxiao is found out."

"Shenxiao?"

Wu Guang was stunned when he heard these three words suddenly, "Why does this name sound familiar?"

Takeba: "It's the shipwreck in the disappearance of the cruise ship in 09."

Hearing this, Wu Guang was stunned, and suddenly he seemed to realize something, "That is to say, this copy is actually adapted from the incident of the disappearance of the Shenxiao? And the Tiangong we are sitting on now is the original Shenxiao." Number?"

Su Ji & Shao Feng & Cheng Xuyuan & Xu Hui: "..."

Did you know that?

"I'm sorry, my brother belongs to the type that is more slow-witted." Wu Chang smoothed things over from the side.

"..."

Coughing lightly, Wu Guang calmly found the next step for himself, "In short, we need to find out the specific reason why the ship disappeared in order to complete the main plot, right?"

As he spoke, he looked at the others, "Let's brainstorm and see if you have any ideas."

Su Ji: "Aside from the normal natural factors of force majeure such as encountering storms and hitting rocks, there are actually two possibilities."

Wu Guang: "Which two kinds?"

Su Ji: "First, due to the interference of certain magnetic fields, the navigation of the ship's hull failed. Second, it was pulled into an unknown territory by some strange force."

Wu Guang: "..."

The former is barely reasonable, but what the hell is the latter? Is the anime setting of COPY Different World Crossing?

Seeing the other party's slightly speechless expression, Su Ji said: "Don't rush to complain. My second guess is not just talking casually."

Compared with his elder brother, Wuchang is much calmer after all, "I would like to hear more about it."

Su Ji said slowly: "From ancient times to the present, there have been legends of mermaids all over the world. Even in the 21st century with advanced technology, some people have witnessed their presence."

"But the strange thing is that no one has been able to find out where they live."

"Scientists studying marine life from various countries should have explored the relevant sea areas long ago, but there has been no news about the mermaid. If it wasn't because of the official secret, it is very likely that they also returned home. "

Speaking of this, Su Ji raised his head and said with a fixed gaze: "So, where did those mermaids go?"

Wuchang heard the words thoughtfully, "So, you mean that the place where the mermaid lives is probably not in the same realm as ours, but in another dimension?"

Su Ji nodded, "Because the two worlds overlap, those witnesses can see the mermaid at the seaside."

Hearing this, Wu Guang also understood, "You want to say that this ship probably passed through the place where the two worlds overlap and entered the world where the mermaid lives, so people in the real world can't find the missing person. vessel?"

Su Ji nodded, "That's right."

Cheng Xuyuan, who had been listening on the sidelines for a long time, said at this time: "If this is the case, then the first possibility you raised by Su Ji can actually be combined with the second one——

Because of the proximity to the space where the two worlds overlap, the magnetic field is disturbed, and the navigation system of the ship also fails, and finally crosses the barrier of space to reach another world. "

Shao Feng couldn't help sighing: "Is this still a ghost talk game full of ghosts and monsters? Even the theory of parallel universes has come out."

"This is not a parallel universe."

Cheng Xuyuan pushed his glasses and said: "According to the theory of parallel universes, the two universes neither overlap nor intersect. Although they can occasionally sense the existence of each other, most of them are not in conflict with each other."

Xu Hui nodded, "Indeed, I think this is more like a multidimensional space than a parallel universe."

"Huh?" Shao Feng scratched his head, "But I read that many novels on the Internet call this kind of parallel universe."

Cheng Xuyuan: "That means the person who wrote the article is unprofessional."

Just when several people were arguing endlessly over the definition of parallel universes, a sentence suddenly came from their ears——

"No matter what the theory is, I think what you just said is very likely the truth about the disappearance of the Tiangong."

After speaking, Wu Guang turned the task panel over, and saw that the progress bar in the column of the main task had changed to 85%!

Seeing the progress bar suddenly growing in front of them, the players' eyes widened.

Wu Guang murmured: "So... it's really a different world time travel?"

Su Ji lowered her eyelashes and fell into deep thought. Since it was determined that the reason for the disappearance of the cruise ship was because it entered another space, the remaining 15% seemed to be well advanced.

There are so many ships sailing at sea every year, why did this cruise ship disappear and enter a different dimension?

Reminiscent of the mermaids that Professor Wu mentioned, Su Ji felt that this should not be a coincidence.

If mermaid meat really has such powerful effects, what about living mermaids?

Do they have other unknown powers?

If this is what he thinks, then these mermaids with magical powers will act when they learn that their companions have been captured by humans, descaled and dug up for food, and locked in a dark cabin as a test subject. What kind of move?

He thought, he should try his best to seek justice from these humans.

Like, pulling the ship into their world.

Then on their territory, revenge.

[Congratulations to player Su Ji for successfully completing the main storyline "The Secret of the Tiangong". The current storyline exploration rate is 100%, and the main storyline is complete. 】

[The side mission - "Crossing the Sea" is now triggered, and there are still five days before the end of the game, please continue to work hard! 】

The moment they heard the game beep, all the players froze.

Subconsciously, they looked at Su Ji.

However, Su Ji did not immediately explain.

Looking at the side mission with the same name as the dungeon in front of him, he fell silent.

It turns out that the game gave hints from the beginning.

Only by getting the boat across the sea successfully can they survive.

This is also the only way to complete this survival mission.
