Chapter 77
"Chiyuan Prison is located on a small island in Huangquan Bay, approximately one hundred kilometers away from Nightmare University. To reach Chiyuan Prison, you can either take a boat or a helicopter."
Tong Ming pointed a stick at the route on the map projected on the large screen and looked around at the strange people in the conference room: "Then the question is, who can fly a helicopter or a boat?"
Cen Xun: “No.”
Usa: “No.”
Qin Xiu: "No."
Tong Ming couldn't believe it and slammed the table. "Forget about others, but Qin Xiu, how come you can't do it? You're a rich second-generation kid. Aren't rich second-generation kids in novels supposed to have learned to fly a helicopter?"
Qin Xiu said calmly, "I have someone to serve me, why should I learn it myself?"
"Damn capitalists!" Tong Ming cursed. "They let others do everything for them, but they do everything themselves when it comes to raising cats!"
Faced with Tong Ming's accusations, Qin Xiu remained indifferent, and Wu Sa silently lowered his head and scratched his hands.
Finally, it was Yaxu who spoke out: [I can fly a helicopter.]
Tong Ming's eyes lit up: "Great, great, finally there's something useful."
[The prerequisite is that the helicopter must be equipped with an intelligent system so that I can take full control of the control panel.]
Tong Ming: "I already have an intelligent system, why do I need you, an artificial idiot?"
[Workplace bullying detected, reported to the principal.]
Yaxu reported it one second, and the next second Cen Xun's phone dinged. Cen Xun didn't even glance at it, but crossed his arms and said ruthlessly: "Rejected."
【】
Qin Xiu had no choice but to interrupt the farce and made a serious suggestion: "Why don't we hire players to help us fly helicopters? With hundreds of thousands of players, there must be someone with a helicopter license."
Cen Xun nodded: "Yes."
Ursa asked curiously, "Then why don't we consider taking a boat? There must be a port nearby."
"The main reason is that there are monsters in the sea. If we sail there, we'll have to fight them all the way, which is a thankless task. It's better to fly there." Tong Ming said slowly, "The second reason is that the high altitude has a good view, which allows me to observe the situation in the distant sea at any time. If we find something wrong, we can adjust the plan at any time."
Their team is not yet good at naval warfare, so of course they have to play to their strengths and avoid their weaknesses.
Tong Ming said sadly, "Besides, Third Sister is also at sea. If she causes a natural disaster at sea, it will be no joke. A helicopter is much faster than a boat. If we are unlucky enough to hit Third Sister, we can still escape in time."
Qin Xiu couldn't help but sigh: "You nine brothers and sisters are really talented."
After deciding on the method of going overseas, the next step was to determine the date of going overseas. Finally, everyone reached a consensus and decided to wait until the second episode of the variety show was completed before setting off.
During this period, Tong Ming found two players who could fly both helicopters and boats, so that if one died, the other could serve as a backup.
That day, Tong Ming took them to the airport in H City and brought them back by helicopter.
The drivers and vehicles were found, and two days later, everyone finished their work and got ready to set off.
The helicopter was parked on a specially designated apron. The propeller had started, making a loud noise. Tong Ming was waiting for Cen Xun at the cabin door. The sun was inexplicably strong today, and he had to raise his hand to block his forehead from the sunlight.
In his sight, Cen Xun finally appeared leisurely.
After seeing Cen Xun's explosive outfit of a floral shirt and beach pants, Tong Ming's eyes were deeply hurt.
"Brother! What are you wearing?" Tong Ming raised his hand tremblingly and pointed at the fancy clothes on Cen Xun.
Cen Xun said calmly: "Beach style, you don't understand."
After saying that, he flew past the petrified Tong Ming and boarded the helicopter.
Tong Ming was speechless. He pulled his hair in pain and went completely crazy.
Is there anyone who can control his brother's distorted aesthetics? Such a beautiful woman, is it appropriate to wear this?
He sighed heavily and boarded the helicopter. Cen Xun glanced at him and said, "Everyone is here, let's go."
Tong Ming and Qin Xiu looked at each other for two seconds and saw the complexity in each other's eyes.
Only Wusa enthusiastically praised it, saying, "It's a new style, with bright colors. It suits you very well!"
This is unbelievable! There are actually two of these weirdos with no aesthetic sense in their nightmare university!
Tong Ming's face darkened when he heard this, and he used his eyes to frantically signal Qin Xiu to control his cat and stop praising it. Otherwise, what if the principal becomes more fond of ugly clothes due to his praise?
The only value of this beach-style outfit is probably that it will make it easier for others to search and rescue Cen Xun when he falls into the sea!
Faced with Tong Ming's crazy suggestions, Qin Xiu also said that he was powerless.
The principal's aesthetic taste is hopeless. If no one praises him, will he stop wearing ugly clothes?
The driver in the front row coughed lightly and said, "Then we'll leave now."
The helicopter slowly took off and flew towards Yellow Spring Bay.
The helicopter's speed is around 250 kilometers per hour. If nothing unexpected happens, they will arrive at Chiyuan Prison in half an hour.
The Nightmare University below became smaller and smaller, and soon they entered the sky above the Posha Sea.
Today, the sea in Posa is calm, and the endless black sea borders the horizon. The dark sea water is like ink, and it is impossible to see what creatures are hidden under the sea surface.
Tong Ming looked at the seemingly calm sea and observed the situation in the distant sea in real time. Cen Xun's eyesight was not as good as his, so he could only use a telescope. After observing for a long time, he didn't find anything special, so he withdrew his gaze with lack of interest.
The first twenty minutes of the helicopter flight were extremely smooth and did not encounter any dangerous situations. When it was still 10 kilometers away from Chiyuan Prison, the outline of the Lost Island could be seen through the telescope.
A milky white fog surrounded the entire island, and the buildings on the island were looming. A gray-white tower, a steel elevated platform with a cold metallic color, and a black semicircular building that looked like an inverted bowl were vaguely visible.
Qin Xiu held the telescope, frowning slightly. "It doesn't look like a prison, it looks more like a military base."
Cen Xun asked with interest, "Why do you think so?"
Qin Xiu stared at the image through the telescope. "Ordinary prisons wouldn't have this kind of fancy stuff. Its architecture mainly includes housing for the prisoners, electric fences, guard towers, and other security facilities, housing for officers and armed police, and a training ground for both armed police and prisoners. The buildings on the island don't look like a normal prison at all."
Tong Ming was surprised and asked, "You know so much about prisons. Have you been in prison before?"
Qin Xiu glanced at him speechlessly. "There was a movie that was going to be filmed in a prison. Normally, such a place wouldn't be open to filming. So I personally bribed the warden of a private prison and took the opportunity to inspect the filming location."
"See that tall steel frame?" Qin Xiu said to the other ghosts in the helicopter. "That looks like a rocket launcher."
Tong Ming was lost in thought: "It's unbelievable. What on earth was this place used for before? How could there be such a thing in the nightmare world?"
The helicopter was still approaching the Lost Island. When they were only five kilometers away from the Lost Island, Tong Ming's face suddenly changed drastically and he said anxiously, "Oh no! We've been locked on by the enemy's missiles!"
Hearing this, the two pilot players in front panicked for a moment, but Cen Xun remained motionless and just gave Wusa a look.
Wusa understood, unbuckled his seatbelt, and asked Tong Ming: "Which direction did the attack come from?"
"One o'clock! 70 degrees downward."
Without saying a word, Usa opened a mirror channel not far from the helicopter, allowing the flying missile to hit the mirror world. Then, Usa immediately opened another mirror, changed the direction of the missile and released it again. The flying missile rushed into the Lost Island at a very fast speed, making a dull explosion.
There was a little black smoke mixed in the milky white fog. Before the black smoke could be completely covered by the fog, several missiles rushed out of the fog and flew towards the helicopter in the air with a whirring sound.
However, several mirrors in the sky swallowed up these missiles one by one and returned them all to the Lost Island.
The sound of explosions continued, and the black smoke mixed in the white mist became more and more. As the helicopters got closer, the people on the island began to fire at them crazily.
Fortunately, with the protection of Usa's mirror, their helicopter was not shot down. Cen Xun unbuckled his seat belt and looked down from the porthole. The closer he got to the Lost Island, the thicker the fog became. He could only see a grayish-white fog and could not see the enemy's appearance at all.
Cen Xun asked, "Wusa, can you drive the mirror directly to the island?"
Wusa tried and shook his head: "There is a barrier outside the island. My mirror channel cannot cross this barrier."
"This is troublesome," Tong Ming frowned, "Then should we just jump?"
Cen Xun said without hesitation: "No, it's too risky. Lao Liu, throw one of your eyes down and see what's going on down there."
Tong Ming wailed, "Ah? Why me again!"
Despite howling, Tong Ming still dug out his own eyeballs and threw one of his eyes down.
After a while, Tong Ming said solemnly, "Apart from the white mist, I can't see anything clearly, and this eyeball has lost contact with me."
Cen Xun: "Try the electronic equipment again."
They threw the camera down, and after a few seconds of falling, the camera fell into the white mist. There was nothing but white on the screen. Before it hit the ground, the image on the screen flashed twice and then went completely black.
Tong Ming frowned at the black screen and was about to speak when he was interrupted by the exclamations of the two players in front of him: "Island! The island is gone!"
What!
The ghosts were stunned and immediately looked up, only to find that most of the island below had disappeared at some point, leaving only a small translucent outline on the edge of the island, which looked like a mirage. Soon, even this mirage-like scene disappeared.
Tong Ming laughed in anger: "I can let you escape right under my nose. Pilot, just fly eastward. This broken island is 50 kilometers away."
Cen Xun pondered for a moment, then said, "No need to go again. If it can run the first time, it can certainly run the second time. Let's go back to school."
Tong Ming was a little unwilling: "But brother, we didn't gain anything this time."
"Who said we didn't gain anything?" Cen Xun spread out his hands calmly. In his palms, there were more than a dozen puppet threads.
But the color of these puppet threads is very strange. It is not the colorful black and white, but pure milky white.
Tong Ming picked up one out of curiosity, folded it a few times in his hand, and observed it against the light: "Brother, why did your puppet silk become this color?"
Cen Xun explained, "I just lowered the puppet thread down. Although it didn't pierce anything, it absorbed some kind of contamination from the white mist."
“They become a contamination carrier.”
Seeing the other confused looks, Cen Xun reminded, "The admission letter from Nightmare University is also a type of contaminated material."
Wusa suddenly realized: "So these five puppet threads can also be used as a prison notice?"
Cen Xun: "Theoretically, it should be, but after all, it's not a notice we obtained through formal procedures. To trigger it, we still need to complete the necessary prison conditions."
Tong Ming suddenly seemed to have figured something out, and slammed his palms: "I understand! The reason why we couldn't enter the Abyss Prison no matter how many people we killed before was not because we didn't kill enough people, but because this Abyss Prison is not open to the public at all!"
Tong Ming's eyes sparkled. "Just like H University before, new students can only join the H University cycle after completing the admission procedures. And this admission procedure requires new students to go to the Academic Affairs Office in person to register!"
"Similarly, only by obtaining the indictment from Chiyuan Prison and committing the crime under the witness of the indictment can we meet the requirements for entering Chiyuan Prison and participate in its operation!"
Cen Xun nodded: "It's much easier to understand if you put yourself in this way."
Qin Xiu summarized succinctly, "In other words, all we need to do is kill someone under the witness of this low-profile indictment to meet the requirements for entering Chiyuan Prison and enter directly."
Cen Xun distributed the milky white puppet silk to them: "Try it and you'll know."
Tong Ming and others tied the puppet strings around their wrists.
The two players acting as drivers in front already had numb expressions on their faces.
No, you weirdos should avoid people when you're plotting murder! Such explosive news, are they really the kind of people these players can listen to?
However, even though they had already started to roar wildly in their hearts, they did not dare to show any abnormality on the surface, for fear that these monsters would attack them as soon as they returned.
The driver's hands were already trembling slightly when a sinister voice suddenly appeared in his ears: "You two, do you know what to say and what not to say?"
The two players immediately straightened their backs and said in trembling voices, "We didn't hear anything!"
Tong Ming patted their shoulders with satisfaction and said, "The dean likes good students like you."
The two players were grinning stiffly, seemingly still alive, but in fact they had been gone for a while.
The voyage was very smooth this time, with calm seas all the way. Only when they were about to arrive at Nightmare University did the sea suddenly become stormy.
Tong Ming couldn't help but feel a little fortunate. If Cen Xun hadn't stopped them in time and given up on tracking Chiyuan Prison, they would be trapped in the open sea and caught in a sudden storm.
Back in the principal's office, Cen Xun didn't pause for a moment. He took out two maps, a map of the real world and a map of the nightmare world, and stacked them together.
By comparing them, we can see that the coastlines of the two worlds basically overlap.
Cen Xun circled the real-world location of Chiyuan Prison and called out to Yaxu: "Old Eight, hack into the satellite and see if there's any military base in this part of the real world."
Yaxu accepted the order, and after a moment, it replied in a robotic male voice: [Satellite cannot view the relevant area]
Cen Xun: "Why can't I view it? Is it blocked, or do I lack the relevant permissions?"
Yaxu: [Both reasons apply. To view, you need to enter the 56-digit password.]
Cen Xun nodded, sat in his seat, and looked at the two maps thoughtfully.
In fact, after completely breaking down the barriers between the two worlds and gaining a general understanding of the real world, Cen Xun discovered that the two worlds had many overlaps.
For example, the H City in the nightmare world actually corresponds to the H City in the real world.
It doesn't seem like a coincidence at all. As for why this happened, Cen Xun couldn't figure it out.
He placed his finger on his forehead and tapped it, looking at the point he had circled on the map, lost in thought.
If the nightmare world is a one-to-one replica of the real world, then there should also be a "Red Abyss Prison" in the real world.
If we can find out what the "Red Abyss Prison" in the real world is used for, it may be more helpful to this operation.
Cen Xun vaguely felt that this Chiyuan Prison was not that simple. Its architectural style reminded Cen Xun of the research institute, which also gave him a sense of cold ugliness.
Cen Xun doesn't like to fight unprepared battles. Now that he has discovered that there may be a "Chiyuan Prison" in the real world, Cen Xun cannot ignore this key clue.
But how can I quickly get information about this place?
Cen Xun raised his eyebrows.
In the middle of the night, Feng Jihan, who was unable to sleep with her eyes open, received a message from her ex-husband.
Don't raise bad birds: [Want to make a deal? ]
The white fluorescent light from the phone screen illuminated Feng Jihan's face as he typed expressionlessly.
Did the evil yarn ball cheat again today? [No.]
