Chapter 1923 The whole story
"War?"
I smiled after hearing her words and said, "Now is a special period. Moreover, with my status in China and my importance to the human race, I believe that the island country will not do anything to me because of your life or death, right? The most important thing is... If I kill you here, then no one else will know!"
This sentence made her face darken. After pondering for a while, she said, "You Chinese have an old saying, 'He who knows the current affairs is a hero.' Now that I'm in your hands, you can kill me or do whatever you want!"
As she said that, she actually closed her eyes, looking like she was ready to let me do whatever I wanted. "
After seeing this scene, I shook my head, then stood up, walked to her and said, "It seems that you still don't understand. I don't want to kill you, I just want to know what you have encountered. I can even help you. But... since you are so uncooperative, then I can only extract your memory!"
As I said, I raised my palm and covered her head directly.
She immediately shuddered and wanted to struggle, but her body would not stop her control. She could only bite her lip and said, "Wait a minute, I can tell you everything, but the premise is that you must let me leave alive afterwards!"
"No problem!" I withdrew my hand, sat back, and said, "Go ahead!"
She let out a long breath, pondered for a while before saying, "We set out to sea a month ago, our destination was the Mariana Trench, and this time, we had two ships going out to sea together, and everything went smoothly during the voyage..."
In the next half hour, the female ninja from the island country began to narrate their experiences on this trip.
From her story, I learned that the island nation was indeed secretly studying the Mariana Trench, and had even sent submersibles to a depth of nearly 10,000 meters several times. However, they had not been able to bring up any species in the previous few times. However, this time, they made sufficient preparations, not only successfully diving into the deep sea again, but also successfully captured several new deep-sea species. Everything was going well, and they could also return home and start studying new species after returning. However, they encountered a storm on the way. Moreover, under the turbulent sea, it seemed that there was a monster lurking, trying to overturn their research ship.
In order to avoid the monster, coupled with the storm blocking the line of sight, the two research ships were separated. Fortunately, they were not far away, and just as the two ships were preparing to reunite, something strange happened.
This bizarre incident happened when all the crew members, including the 13 researchers, disappeared mysteriously.
This female ninja and the island warrior were responsible for protecting the researchers and could not drive the ship, so they could only float on the sea, waiting for the island country to find out the anomaly and come to rescue them.
After listening to the woman's story, I narrowed my eyes and kept tapping the table with my fingers.
"So, those missing crew members and researchers should have been attacked by some kind of sea monster!" I analyzed.
The female ninja shook her head and said, "It's not like that, because we didn't find any signs of fighting. I'm not the strongest ninja on this trip. There are two samurai and one ninja who are stronger than me. Even in the entire island country, they are also very powerful. If they were attacked by a sea monster, they would not be able to resist at all, and..."
She was interrupted by me before she finished her sentence.
This woman's way of thinking is still... ordinary people's thinking.
She still thinks in the way of ordinary people, and this way of thinking is naturally subject to huge limitations.
"If I had attacked you, I could have done it silently and wiped you all out without a trace. So, I can be sure that your research ship was definitely attacked by a sea monster. Moreover, the sea monster that attacked you... was very powerful!"
I had originally planned to say that the demon clan attacked them, but after thinking about it, I changed the demon clan to sea monster, because this woman seemed to know very little about the demon clan. Even those who practiced cultivation seemed to have little contact with them.
"I've seen descriptions of ninjas on the Internet. They are very isolated from information because the people who train them won't let them know too much, because that would make them hard to control. The less they know, the easier it is to control them. To put it bluntly... the more ignorant a person is, the easier it is to control them. So it should be that the higher-ups have blocked them from knowing anything about practitioners and monsters."
I murmured in my heart, and at this time, I saw the woman frowned: "You did show some incredible means, but wanting to kill all of us..."
I interrupted her again and said, "Have you ever thought about why you and that samurai were able to survive?"
She was slightly startled after hearing what I said, and I smiled and said, "Because, the sea monster... didn't find you!"
"Didn't find us? But we weren't hiding, we were on the boat, why couldn't it find us?"
"Because of the gold foil!"
Through the woman's narration and my previous discovery on the ship, I actually had a vague guess about the whole story.
The island nation went to the Mariana Trench to explore and successfully captured the demon cubs, which aroused the anger of the demons, so they chased the research ship all the way.
The high-level officials of the island nation were obviously prepared, but the attack of the demons came too suddenly, causing them to be caught off guard and not hide in the cabin covered with gold foil in time, which led to their death.
"The gold foil can shield the five senses. The demon didn't sense that there were still living people, and the two strange species were also wrapped in gold foil, so they didn't sense it, so they left!"
I nodded secretly, and my guess was more and more confirmed in my heart.
But the next second, I frowned suddenly, because I suddenly thought of something.
That is, the gold foil covering the fish tank was... lifted by me!
"Will this attract the demon tribe back?"
I am not afraid of the demon tribe, but to be honest, the research value of those two new species is still very high. We can develop weapons and medicines against them.
With this thought, I hurriedly got up and was about to return to the research ship.
"Where are you going?" The woman asked hurriedly when she saw me leaving.
I turned my head to look at her, and then said, "I'm going to your ship. I suspect that the sea monster that attacked you will come back!"
"Will it come back?" She was startled, then bit her lip and said, "I'll go with you!"
