Chapter 098 Chapter 98

The headquarters of the Supernatural Bureau has a building that reaches high into the clouds. At this time, Zhu He is standing in a room. In front of him is a huge floor-to-ceiling window. Through the glass, he can clearly see the clouds below.

I don't know what kind of high-tech was used on the glass window. Zhu He pointed his dry index finger at it, and the next second a translucent blue data stream appeared on the glass window. As the system calculated, a dark black crack gradually appeared in the empty sky.

The crack looked no different from an ordinary entrance to a strange realm, except that it emitted a faint invisible energy that made people feel panic and uneasiness from the bottom of their hearts.

This is the legendary "gate" that connects the two worlds. From time to time, some golden lights appear near the gate, forming an invisible barrier that blocks the attacks from behind the rift.

The existence of the seals gave people a full sense of security, but at this moment their color had become extremely dim, as if they would all collapse if the existence behind the door exerted a little force. But it was just as if they still existed here, conscientiously maintaining the final stability.

Zhu He stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, his eyes dim, and no one knew what he was thinking. After a while, a knock on the door interrupted his thoughts.

"Come in."

The secretary came with two documents in his hands to report on the work progress during this period.

"The armed forces at Suolongtan have been deployed. Here are the relevant documents. Please review them."

"Leave it there." Zhu He didn't turn around: "How is the progress of the Tianji Lock?"

"Three days ago, 'Nu Wa' detected energy fluctuations that were suspected to be from the Heavenly Secret Lock again, and after investigations over this period of time, it can be basically determined that the energy source is in Area 4."

The secretary's voice was a little hesitant: "But similarly, that senior also lives in Area 4. We now speculate that the energy source may be in his hands, so we dare not take any action rashly."

"Yes." Zhu He closed his eyes and continued, "Leave some people there and remember not to disturb him. If he is willing, he will naturally come to us."

"yes."

Zhu He paused for a moment, then turned around and looked at the two documents on the table. One of them was related to the Dragon Lake Locking Project, and the other was tightly packed in a brown paper bag. Seeing this, the secretary explained, "This document is the outline of the new plan, and it has been organized according to your requirements."

"Very good." Zhu He raised his arm and looked at the time, then picked up the document: "Let's go, the meeting time is about to come."

…

From time to time, the sound of dripping water could be heard in the dark space. The ethereal sound combined with the surrounding environment gave people goosebumps.

This is an underground cave. Countless caves of different sizes are connected together to form a huge underground space. For some reason, the walls of these caves are filled with various strange colors, which are so gorgeous and bizarre that it seems like entering another world.

In the deepest part of the cave, there is a pool of water emitting a gloomy and cold air, and the most eye-catching thing is the huge stone statue of a coiled dragon in the center of the pool.

The stone statue had no eyes, and its head, body, and claws were locked by six iron chains as thick as human thighs. Even if it were a living creature, it would probably be unable to move under the restraints of these chains.

There is a circle of oddly shaped stone pillars surrounding the pool, with some strange patterns and words engraved on them. However, due to the long time, the information has long become blurred and unrecognizable.

The other ends of the chains were wrapped around the stone pillars, and the entire chain was stretched straight under the pulling force.

There is no doubt that this is the legendary Locking Dragon Pond.

Ever since Yuheng's reminder that day, the security here has been strengthened at an epic level, from the armed forces to the number of people, it has reached a very impressive level, which can definitely give a surprise to the enemies who want to sneak in and cause trouble.

The psychic in combat uniform held a weapon and glanced around nervously: "Did you hear the dragon roar? The roaring sound."

"Where does a dragon roar like that? But when you say 'Awoo, Awoo', it seems to be real, but it's not very clear, it sounds vague..."

"Yes, yes, that's the sound. There can't be anything else here, right?"

"You, don't scare me, I'm timid." The two funny guys started rubbing their goose bumps with fear on their faces.

"You two idiots, this is the sound of the wind." The experienced person in the team looked at them speechlessly, and she pointed to the top of her head: "Look up."

When they heard it, they looked and found that the top of the pool was not completely closed. There was a hole of moderate size that led directly to the outside world. When they looked up, they could see a full and bright moon through it.

Several people opened their mouths and tilted their heads back, uttering a series of “So that’s what it is” sounds.

"The moon is so beautiful..." someone sighed.

"Hey, from this angle, we are like frogs in a well. Alone, alone, alone... Ouch! Don't hit me, my helmet is shaking."

"Stop talking nonsense, but...will there be a full moon on New Year's Day?" A man touched his helmet and muttered.

As soon as these words came out, the others also realized that something was wrong and immediately became alert. For a moment, the entire cave was silent, and in the silence, the sound of dripping water and the sound of the wind were particularly clear.

After waiting for a long time, the expected enemy attack did not appear, and it seemed to be just a false alarm. But when they looked out again, the moon was still round and full, which made people feel strangely uneasy.

"Crack."

"What is that!" The captain suddenly caught a glimpse of a moving black shadow in his peripheral vision. He raised his hand and shot out a beam of energy, which hit the target accurately. A small object fell to the ground.

The team members who were close by walked forward cautiously with their weapons in hand to check: "It's a wooden doll, how did it appear here...was it moving just now?"

It looked a bit like one of those old-fashioned puppets, except that it had no strings to control it, and the whole puppet was lying on the ground like it had no bones. Its waist was cut in half by the previous attack.

Out of caution, none of them dared to touch it. Just as the team member stood up and was about to look away, the puppet's head turned around without warning, and the pair of wooden eyes painted with black paint met his eyes.

"ah!"

A strange laugh suddenly came out of the puppet's mouth, and countless black threads suddenly emerged from the broken parts of its body, and in the blink of an eye, it was restored to its original state. It seemed to be pulled by invisible strings, and it stood up one after another like a puppet.

"Enemy attack! All units, attention!"

A uniquely weird black mist suddenly burst out from the puppet's body, and its five fingers turned into claws.

"As agreed, I'm here to take your body."

…

Yuheng opened his eyes, and his intense panic made his breathing suddenly become rapid.

"What's wrong?" You Lin put down the incense burner in his hand and looked at him worriedly.

"Nothing, maybe I'm too tired these days." Yuheng shook his head and slowly relaxed. Just now, he felt like something was out of his control.

If there was a problem, the first thing that came to Yuheng's mind was the Dragon Lock Pond. But after thinking carefully, he had already reminded them before, and if the authorities were prepared, there shouldn't be any big problems.

He looked out the window. It was already dark, but the outside world was still bustling with lights and decorations. Everyone was immersed in the joy of the New Year.

You can't be careless. When you reach the Yuheng realm, there will be absolutely no mistakes, so there must be something wrong.

After thinking about it, Yuheng finally decided to follow his heart and go over to take a look. If there was something wrong, he would take action. If there was nothing wrong, it would be even better. He would just take it as an evening walk.

"I'll go out and take a look."

Yuheng stood up, but before he had taken a few steps, he suddenly felt dizzy for no reason, and the You Lin in front of him changed from one to two. He held on to the table in confusion, and barely relied on the support of the table to steady his body.

Why am I so dizzy... I'm so sleepy that I can't even open my eyes...

Yuheng bit the tip of his tongue hard, relying on the sharp pain to stay awake for the time being. He raised his head and saw You Lin's calm gaze, and suddenly realized something: "You put something in the incense."

"Yes." You Lin admitted directly: "This is a specially made calming incense. It will only make people sleepy. There is no harm."

This special incense had been burning for a day, and You Lin would add some from time to time. Eventually, the quantitative change led to a qualitative change. When Yuheng realized that something was wrong, it was already too late.

No wonder this guy suddenly had the idea of ​​coming to play chess with him. He was obviously not good at chess but still insisted on playing. It turned out that he was waiting here.

Yuheng couldn't explain his feelings. At this moment, he finally realized that You Lin might have been lying to him. It's not that he didn't suspect You Lin before, but this suspicion would disappear inexplicably every time he saw him in person.

His instinct told him that You Lin could be trusted - even though he had been cheated by this guy, he was not on guard at all.

As the drug took effect, Yuheng's consciousness became increasingly blurred. At the end of his memory, You Lin caught him.

"You haven't rested for a long time. Have a good sleep. I will explain everything to you when you wake up."

"My friend." You Lin didn't know whether Yuheng heard the call in the end.

He gently placed the unconscious Yuheng on the couch, then accurately found the Soul-Fixing Lock from the antique shelf and placed it next to Yuheng's pillow. With a slight twist of his fingers, the magic weapon began to emit a radiant light.
