The spherical elevator gradually descended into the dark sea water.
Through the circular porthole in front, Sean once again saw the dreamlike underwater city.
"No matter how many times I see it, it's still amazing..." Sean sighed, as the spherical capsule had passed through the outside of the "big bubble".
A hidden pipeline connects to the most conspicuous building in the industrial area.
Due to the dimness of the water and the angle, people cannot see the arrival of this secret elevator from inside Ocean City.
The spherical cabin was connected to a secret office inside the building. After the seawater in the buffer zone was drained, the cabin door slowly opened.
Tesler led Sean and Olivia into the room.
"This is composed of two areas," Tesler walked into the next room and took out a bottle of brandy from the cabinet.
In the room where Tesler is now, there are many daily necessities including food and drinking water piled up, and it seems that everything is available.
If someone lives here, I'm afraid they won't have to step out of here for half a year.
After asking Olivia politely, Tesler poured wine for Sean and himself, handed the glass with sloshing amber liquid to Sean, and Tesler walked out of the room where the supplies were displayed.
The room he is in now has many screens. Below the screens is a center console with many switches and knobs.
Sean looked carefully. The black and white pictures on the screen were all key locations in Ocean City.
The Ocean City Fair, Whalefall Hall, Verne's office, etc...
Just sitting here, you can grasp the situation in the entire Ocean City.
"Verne's control room does not have such a comprehensive monitoring range..." Tesler took a sip, put the cup on the table, held his head in contentment, and sat in front of the center console.
"In the next period of time..." There was a faint smile on the corner of the mouth under the black beard, "Verne and his companions will find that Ocean City seems to be haunted.
"What they want to do will be vetoed, and some orders that were never given will be carried out.
"In this room, I can decide to close the entrance and exit of a certain area, shut down the energy supply of any building, open any centrally controlled lock, and even directly use resonance and water pressure to destroy a certain area... "
“They would be frantically looking for reasons and would never have imagined that there was such a higher-level control room.
“They’ll be suspicious of each other and think there’s a mole at work; they’ll suspect something is wrong in Ocean City, and they’ll get the idiots to check it out…
"After trying again and again in vain, they will discover that there is no way to figure out what is going on.
"Eventually, after seeing some clearly rational operations, Fuller Verne will have to consider the possibility that his old buddy, the dull, inarticulate inventor from Serbia, his' Ghosts 'haunt the city, causing trouble..."
Tesler took another sip of wine: "Of course, those despicable people may consider that I have returned to Ocean City in some way.
"It's a pity that even if they searched all over Ocean City, they couldn't find this office and find me.
"This office does not exist in the design drawings. Moreover, due to my caution, the mezzanine of the room has been specially processed. No detection method, whether technological or mysterious, can detect the existence here...
"I will become the most terrible enemy of Verne and Rabbi Lins."
Standing behind Tesler, Sean suddenly realized that, to a certain extent, Tesler sitting in this hidden central room was the god of Ocean City.
After accidentally rescuing him from the Eye of Labyrinth Island, they gained the support of the entire "Ocean City".
There is a special phone in the hidden central room. As long as Sean uses any phone in Ocean City and dials a string of passwords given by Tesler, he can contact Tesler through the encrypted channel.
After communicating with Nikolai Tesler about the follow-up matters, Sean, who was impatient, took Olivia and left the hidden central room together.
The sealed door opened, and Sean found himself in a power distribution room of the building.
And the door, which is as thick as a bank vault, is closed tightly, without any trace at all...
"With the blessing of the 'gods' of Ocean City..." Sean sensed that there was no one around him, so he walked into the fire escape and headed towards the ground. "When facing any challenges from now on, I will have a powerful helper."
This once weird and crazy city is now at their beck and call.
"However, we cannot go too far..." For example, directly destroying the foundation's headquarters building. "That would not only cause a large number of innocent deaths, but would also most likely fail to defeat Rabbi Lins' purpose.
"With great power, how to use it requires long-term planning."
Tesler also already knew about Rabbi Lins' conspiracy, and he undoubtedly wanted to stop the madman.
Therefore, Tesler, who can only hide behind the scenes, has promised that if Sean can provide a specific plan, he will cooperate with the implementation if he feels it is feasible.
Therefore, Sean planned to discuss his next actions after finding Alicia.
It was already night time, and there was no one in the industrial area.
While walking with the help of the forgotten characteristics of Naia Shenyu, Sean has decided to communicate with his companions through the Explorer playing cards.
“After returning to Ocean City, the chess piece totem on the back of my hand reappeared.
"However, I don't know the communication mechanism of the chess piece totem. If I contact Alicia through the totem rashly, I may be discovered by Rabbi Lins...
"The only feasible option is the Explorer Poker, which is relatively less efficient in communication, but also safer."
Sean and Moonlight had agreed on some shocking secret words long ago, and even if they were coerced, it was unlikely that Sean's return would be revealed.
With some trepidation, Sean injected spiritual power into the playing cards and tried to vibrate the moonlight playing cards according to a certain frequency.
After a few uncomfortable seconds...
Sean's playing cards vibrated!
Moonlight used the code word "all is safe" and told Sean that he could go directly back to the Shipwreck Hotel!
Sean couldn't help but feel so happy that his heart beat faster when he learned that his teammates had not been caught by Rabbi Lins and could even maintain their concealed identities!
This situation was somewhat beyond Sean's expectations.
"It's been more than a day and a night since I left Ocean City. Although we wore Explorer masks when we were at Franconia Mansion, and there was a stand-in in the Shipwreck Hotel at that time to create an alibi...
"However, if Rabbi Lins had not caught Alicia, he would have inevitably ordered Verne to conduct a city-wide search again...
"Although the Sheriffs in Ocean City are almost all idiots, our identities have not been revealed yet... This situation is too ideal..."
Moving under the cover of darkness, Sean's thoughts fluctuated.
