"John, Anthony... are very common names. Don't you have a surname?" Ke Lan scratched his head... If the names John and Anthony were directly entered into the archives, there would probably be people with the same name. There are tens of thousands of people. Even if we only look for those who have served in the military and are of the right age, I am afraid we would have to have tens of thousands of people.
What's more, these people may also be using pseudonyms.
"There is no surname... They have always kept their affairs secret. I know the names, experiences and family situations of everyone in the lumberjack team. There are only four of them 'seniors', and their identities are not made public." 8 One Chinese website
"If their identities are not disclosed, how can their families get pensions if they die?" Ivan asked.
"Each of them has an unnamed savings account. If something happens to one of them, the remaining people will have to pay a sum of money into this account regularly every month... When my father disappeared, I was elected as the team member. After the new leader, Uncle John and Uncle Anthony told me about it."
"Huh, if it's so mysterious, aren't they afraid of being mistaken by the security bureau as a secret agent planted by a heretical sect on the Ark?" Thirty-three said.
"The secrets involved in this matter are far more serious than having a connection with a heretic sect... If you have a connection with a heretic sect, the most people you will attract are people from the Security Bureau, but if this matter is exposed, I am afraid that you will have to face the ship... ..." Ke Lan quickly glanced at Mo Jue and changed his words, "I'm afraid I'm going to confront the group of people above."
"That's right... Although I still don't know what is in the gray mist forest, but since you act so serious, it must be a big trouble." Thirty-three nodded with deep understanding - - He has not known Ke Lan for a long time. He only learned about the existence of the Immortal Crew Association recently. It took him two nights just to digest this information. Until now, Thirty-three is still thinking about the problem. They often maintain their previous mindset and exclude such an abrupt existence as the "Undead Crew Club".
"Those accounts have the highest security level. Just to maintain these accounts, you need to pay a large amount of 'maintenance fees' to the bank every year. It is difficult for even the Security Bureau to trace the flow of funds." Mo Jue added from the side.
"Haha...the account security level is actually a cover created by those financial institutions, specially used to cut off people who are stupid and have a lot of money. What you spend money to buy is just a psychological comfort...don't talk about these passing Money flowing through commercial banks with clear and verifiable accounts, even those things in the black market that are directly traded with fixed-amount circulation cards or by barter, can be found out by the security bureau... Many times, these guys just choose Just turn a blind eye." Ke Lan waved his hand and said.
Ke Lan didn't know whether the security bureau could find these things, but the immortal crew would definitely be able to.
If he gets these accounts, Ke Lan can also find the families of these four people, but only if he can do it on the Ark, so this clue has no value at present.
"What is my father investigating? What is in the center of the gray mist forest? Is it a ruin or something else?" Mo Jue glanced at Ke Lan, and then looked at Thirty-three, Asano Akira, Ivan and Ze Luo He glanced at several people and said, "I've already followed you here. If you want me to continue taking you deeper, you must at least tell me what you are looking for, right?"
"There is a ruins in the center of the Gray Mist Forest." Ke Lan nodded, "But whether this ruins really exists, even I am not sure, because no one has ever seen that ruins with their own eyes. And your father, in When the Air Force fleet was in service, it once accepted a mission, and the goal of the mission was to use warships to destroy the ruins."
"Destroy the ruins? Why?" Mo Jue was stunned. "If there are ruins, shouldn't we send out exploration teams and ruin hunters? Why send out warships?"
"Unfortunately, this is exactly what I want to know..." Ke Lan said.
"Then my father's mission..."
"Failed. After crossing the red line, a fleet of five battleships, including a heavy cruiser, was frantically attacked by a large number of flying indigenous creatures flying out of the gray fog forest. Two battleships crashed in the gray fog forest. Among them, the remaining three warships were severely damaged and had to abandon their mission and withdraw from this airspace. And your father was serving on these three warships at that time."
"Why... I never heard of this when I was serving in the Air Force fleet?" Mo Jue said in shock.
"Because this mission is the highest level of confidentiality." Ke Lan replied, "Those who participated in the mission will be sent to the front line with the highest mortality rate afterwards... And your father was injured and his identity file was confused. , escaped by luck."
Mo Jue's mouth opened slightly in surprise, and she stuttered: "So, is this the reason why my father is so persistent in exploring the Gray Mist Forest?"
"I think so." Ke Lan nodded, "But the intelligence I collected is very limited. I have no idea what your father saw or knew during that operation... If it was just a failed mission , he should not be allowed to choose to continue to take risks after recovering from his injury."
The word "risking yourself" in Ke Lan's words actually has a double meaning - the first level refers to the danger of the Gray Mist Forest itself, and the second level refers to the risk of privately exploring the Gray Mist Forest if it is violated. The undead crew members will learn about it, which will inevitably lead to death.
"My father never told me..."
"I still have one thing that I'm a little confused about. I want you to explain it." Ke Lan patted Mo Jue on the shoulder, who was in a daze. "According to your description, after your father disappeared, the 'seniors' in the team should There are only two people left, John and Anthony. Why did they choose to make you the leader of the team instead of themselves? These two people should be above you in terms of qualifications, experience and ability, not to mention, they and you Father also has a 'shared secret'. If I were one of them, after you made the decision to 'no longer explore the depths of the gray fog forest and only harvest fog perches two hundred meters away from the red line', I will definitely stand up against it.”
Ke Lan paused and then said: "After all, the purpose of forming this team was not to harvest the fog perch in the first place."
"Because they gave up later... After a few years, the depth of exploration only reached 500 meters, and there were only two of them left among the five...Uncle John and Uncle Anthony had a problem with me about this matter. After a short conversation, they said they were tired and no longer wanted to pursue the secret," Mo Jue said.
"They decided to let this secret rot in their stomachs and live peacefully, right?" Thirty-three interjected, "To be honest, although I don't like this decision, from their point of view, this choice is wise."
"Have you said that other people haven't noticed anything unusual for so many years?" When talking about other people, Ke Lan subconsciously turned around and looked towards Dan Ning.
But he suddenly discovered that tanning was missing!
"Brother Shen!"
"Um!"
When Shen Changqing walks on the road, whenever he meets someone he knows, he will say hello or nod to each other.
But no matter who it is.
There was no unnecessary expression on everyone's face, as if they were indifferent to everything.
To this.
Shen Changqing has become accustomed to it.
Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, an organization that maintains the stability of the Qin Dynasty. Its main responsibility is to kill monsters and monsters. Of course, there are also some other side jobs.
It can be said.
Everyone in the Demon Suppression Division has a lot of blood on their hands.
When a person is used to seeing life and death, he will become indifferent to many things.
When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but he got used to it over time.
The Demon-Suppressing Division is huge.
Those who can stay in the Demon Suppressing Division are all powerful masters, or those who have the potential to become masters.
Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.
Among them, the Demon Suppressor Division is divided into two professions, one is the Guardian Envoy and the other is the Demon Slayer.
Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Department starts from the lowest level as a demon slayer.
Then he will be promoted step by step, and he is expected to eventually become a guardian envoy.
Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level among the demon slayers.
Possessing the memory of a previous life.
He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.
It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of a loft.
Unlike other places in the Demon Suppressing Division that were full of chills, the attic here seemed to stand out from the crowd, showing a different kind of tranquility in the bloody Demon Suppressing Division.
At this time, the attic door was open, and occasionally people came in and out.
Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment before stepping in.
Enter the attic.
The environment changes in vain.
The fragrance of ink mixed with the faint smell of blood hit his face, making him frown instinctively, but then relaxed it quickly.
There is almost no way to cleanse away the smell of blood on everyone in the Demon-Suppressing Division.
