Chapter 254: Exploration Begins



Not to mention the entire interior of the Strait of Gibraltar, which is already covered by a lot of fog.

The outside world at this moment.

The message has been received.

The Strait of Gibraltar is one of the most important shipping routes in the world, and any sudden situation here can easily attract attention from the outside world.

In addition, the nearby port of Gibraltar city was not shrouded in fog, and many ships waiting to be released there saw the foggy scene.

so.

The British Empire and Spain, the two countries in charge of managing this place, quickly sent people to the scene.

After discovering that the fog was not simple.

We immediately contacted the superior European United System to take charge of this matter.

It only took less than two hours.

The Extraordinary Research Alliance, which arrived in a fleet of helicopters, has arrived near the port of Gibraltar city.

Considering that this fog may have some supernatural influences.

They commanded the Spanish troops who were notified to arrive nearby during this period to carry out centralized control of the numerous seafarers in the port of Gibraltar.

Avoid affecting the people closest to you.

besides.

Several cities that are relatively close to the Strait of Gibraltar have also established isolation between themselves and the Strait of Gibraltar, prohibiting anyone from approaching the foggy Strait of Gibraltar.

And it is right in the city port of Gibraltar.

People from the Extraordinary Research Alliance set up a simple command center with the government building here as the core.

In addition to the personnel from the Extraordinary Research Alliance, several leaders from the British Empire and Spain who are responsible for the management of the Strait of Gibraltar are also here.

"Now, let's all tell me what this situation is."

Philip, who had a small hammer on his waist, looked around and spoke first.

After knowing the emergency situation here.

Because right after Hansen finished the negotiations with Xin Qin, he immediately rushed to Japan to deal with the follow-up of the worm invasion incident.

The search for the man in the painting is still ongoing.

So, he, who was barely the second-in-command, was sent here to be in charge of the investigation.

"At 6:02 in the morning, we received a text message from the Strait of Gibraltar Management Office, the entrance gate, Cape Carneiro."

"The content is very simple: fog, danger, and help!"

"After that, we lost all communications here at 6:03 and could no longer contact them by any means."

"We immediately checked satellite images based on the message and then made unified attempts to contact the foggy area."

“But all of them are disconnected.”

A British man wearing a top hat responded to Philip's question and gave a brief explanation of the current situation.

He was sent by the British Empire to be in charge of this incident.

After he finished saying these words.

The screen in the conference room is controlled to display a satellite image from the sky.

A large amount of thick white fog obstructed the field of vision.

It can be clearly seen that the fog covers most of the Strait of Gibraltar, and even many inhabited places such as Tarifa, Guadalimese and Perejil Island are covered.

Cape Carnilo and Cape Marroqui, the two entrances and exits of the Strait of Gibraltar, were also completely covered by fog.

The entire fog coverage area is almost exactly a circle with a diameter of 28 kilometers.

About five to seven kilometers away from Gibraltar where they are now, they can clearly see the thick fog lingering there.

“We realized something was wrong and immediately brought troops here with the Spanish leader.”

The head of the British Empire said this and looked at the Spanish head beside him.

Gibraltar was originally occupied by the British Empire.

Therefore, even though the surrounding area is all Spanish territory, any incident in the Strait of Gibraltar will be handled jointly by Spain and the British Empire.

"We arrived at 6:34 in the morning and immediately started working with mice."

"We found that this fog, which shows no sign of dispersing, has a strong hypnotic effect on any creature that enters it. After a certain period of time, they will wake up again after leaving the fog."

"And at first glance, this kind of sleep doesn't look like sleep, it's more like a suspended death."

"In addition, this fog also has the ability to block signals."

"After realizing that this incident was definitely not simple, we informed you."

The Spanish leader saw the British leader looking at him.

So he took over the conversation and continued to explain.

After the leaders of the two countries discovered that things were not simple, they decisively contacted the Supernatural Research Alliance.

As they vaguely knew that there were some extraordinary truths in the world, they understood that what they were encountering at this moment was probably not something they could handle.

"So... the missing people are not dead."

"They are most likely in a deep sleep, and those who are hiding in the room and have not inhaled the mist are unable to contact the outside world due to signal shielding."

Philip quickly grasped the point.

At present, the origin of the fog is not important.

The most important thing is that there are many people trapped in the fog who need them to rescue.

A certain number of people live in Tarifa, Guadalimese, Perejil Island and other places on both sides of the Strait.

There are also many staff members of the Strait of Gibraltar Management Office at Cape Carnilo and Cape Marroqui, the two entrances and exits of the Strait of Gibraltar.

"Yes, the most important thing at the moment is to carry out rescue operations."

"We have counted the registered population in Tarifa and Guadali Messi, and we can use this as a basis for rescue operations later."

"Morocco also sent the registered population of Perehir Island for reference."

"We want to do our best to ensure that all victims in the fog are rescued."

The Spanish official then spoke up.

There are two cities in Spain covered by this heavy fog, and now they need to rescue the people sleeping inside as soon as possible.

It really doesn't hurt to take a nap.

But if you continue to sleep without anyone paying attention, big problems will arise.

"It's 7:16 now, there's no rush."

"The people I brought are all wearing their gear. Are you sure that effective gas isolation measures can protect against the hypnotic effects of the fog?"

Philip checked the time.

Then he asked the person in charge of Spain and the British Empire.

Time is running out.

After this emergency meeting.

The people from their Extraordinary Research Alliance would immediately go into the fog to explore.

There were not many of them, and their main purpose was to further study the origin and nature of the fog, and to try to carry out rescue operations in the nearest place.

As long as the rescue is successful, there will be a large Spanish force nearby ready to enter the fog and rescue the residents of several cities.

After all, it is difficult for them, the vanguard troops, to try to rescue so many people at once.

The first destination for these members of the Extraordinary Research Alliance is the Strait of Gibraltar Administration, the entrance pass, Cape Carneiro.

Not only is this the closest, it's only a few kilometers away.

Originally, when there was no fog, you could see that place from afar through the calm harbor from the top floor of this conference room.

This was also the only place where a distress message was sent before the fog covered the area.

In several other places.

Because the fog spreads too quickly and everyone's perception is that the fog can only interfere with vision.

It was not until the moment I was covered and felt dizzy that I realized something was wrong, but it was too late by then.

Therefore, no one asked for help from other places.

Only the Gibraltar Strait Administration, the entrance pass, Cape Carneiro, sent out a distress signal the moment the fog arrived.

This shows that the people there must be something special, and perhaps they know some information about the fog for some reason.

In addition, the Strait of Gibraltar Administration, the entrance pass, and Cape Carneiro are relatively close.

"Before you arrived, the people who volunteered to conduct the experiment had been wearing airtight protective clothing for half an hour, and there were still no problems."

The Spanish official responded.

I cannot guarantee that isolating the air is absolutely effective.

But at least so far, no failure has been found.

"Okay, we'll leave at 7:25."

"It only takes 30 minutes to go there and back, plus 20 minutes for insurance."

"If we are not back by 8:15, do not act rashly and contact the Extraordinary Research Alliance immediately to report."

Philip said seriously.

Then he immediately walked out of the meeting room.

Every minute and every second that people are trapped in the fog is more urgent. If some people in positions that require constant attention fall asleep because of the fog, it is likely to cause many casualties.

For example, if drivers, chefs, assembly line workers and other occupations suddenly fall asleep, there is a probability of traffic accidents, fires, continuous operation of machines and other problems, which are likely to cause a certain degree of casualties.

So even the heavy fog just makes people sleepy.

They don't have much time to waste.

Thinking.

Philip arrived at the port.

There were many ships docked here waiting to be released through the Strait of Gibraltar.

However, due to an emergency, they were all driven away by the joint forces of the British Empire and Spain.

Those who didn't have time to leave tried their best to get out of the way, and the people on the boats were taken away.

So now, there are only three assault boats docked in the port.

Many members, wearing gas-isolated protective suits, sat in the assault boat and were ready.

In addition, some medical supplies and thermal weapons are also prepared on the assault boat.

In addition, all the team members he brought with him had some understanding of spiritual practice and were ready to deal with any kind of crisis that might exist in the fog at any time.

Seeing this.

As the commander, Philip also boarded the ship decisively.

The three assault boats immediately started up and headed towards the nearby Strait of Gibraltar Administration, the entrance pass, Cape Carneiro.

Looking at the people stopping to watch at the port.

Philip retracted his gaze, took the protective suit handed to him by his subordinate and put it on.

Although he is secretly a member of Everday and the holder of Thor's hammer, he will most likely not be affected by the fog.

But in order to remain undercover, he had to be as sociable as possible.

And in order to avoid any setbacks, he couldn't be too arrogant.

It is still necessary to make all protective preparations.

soon.

Philip put on his protective suit.

Then he looked intently at the approaching fog not far away.

In fact, he felt it from the moment he arrived at the port of Gibraltar.

The powerful spiritual power fluctuations permeate the sky and the earth.

It is emitted continuously in the fog.

This was definitely an extraordinary event, and Philip felt that it was most likely related to Eternal Day.

But considering that Yong Zhou's superior did not contact him specifically for assistance, it means that the situation here should not be urgent.

So he simply continued to maintain his persona and did what the leader of the Extraordinary Research Alliance team should do: lead the investigation by himself.

As we got closer, the fog thickened.

They soon arrived at the edge of the fog, where there was a research vessel and three escort ships full of fully armed soldiers.

A study on fog.

That's what they are doing.

Three assault boats were parked nearby.

"Sir, please pay close attention to anything that seems amiss."

"We are not allowed to go in for research. It's up to you to go deeper."

A scholar waved at the bow of the research vessel and shouted loudly to the speedboat.

Obviously.

This is a rather fanatical scholar.

I couldn't stop showing my curiosity about the fog.

Hearing this.

Philip nodded seriously.

In this unknown fog, no one knows what is inside.

It is not known whether there are more dangers.

He would naturally explore it seriously! This was a responsibility for the lives of his subordinates, and also for his own life.

If you encounter danger.

The Thor's hammer on his waist is not vegetarian.

When the leader allowed me to possess Thor's hammer, I was still very immature.

Now he can perform quite well.

He could feel a special power in the hammer that seemed endless.

Can understand and grasp a little bit.

As the three assault boats continued to start, they were ready to cross the fog in front of them.

Philip came back to his senses and calmly said in the communication channel: "Communications may be blocked next. Everyone stay calm and be ready for battle!"

Hearing this.

The three assault boats were suddenly filled with a solemn and murderous atmosphere.

They knew nothing about what was happening in the fog.

Therefore, it must be taken seriously.

The next moment.

Three assault boats crossed the fog.

It was as if they had crossed some kind of barrier. Although no one had any special feeling, they had a vague intuition about it.

Philip tried to speak using the communication device.

But found that it had lost its effect.

As the British Navy and the Spanish did in a simple test, fog can block the signal.

Fortunately, they had anticipated this situation before they set out.

After being found to be forced into radio silence.

The members on the three speedboats immediately looked in Philip's direction.

"keep going!"

Philip used spiritual practice to empower his voice and let it spread.

Everyone heard this.

Immediately and calmly continue to move forward according to the previous plan.

The target location of their team is Cape Carneiro, the entrance pass of the Strait of Gibraltar Administration, which can already be vaguely seen.

The mission objectives are threefold: first, to try to rescue some people. Second, to find out if there are more dangers in the fog. Third, to find out how the staff at Cape Kalnilo knew that the fog was dangerous.

Everything has been planned already.

The three speedboats were getting closer and closer to the target location.
