Regarding the matter of the reception department, it is naturally not so simple to make a conclusion.
Although Lu En also knew that what Beru said was reasonable, the entire shelter department invested a lot of money and consumed a lot of manpower and material resources from the Hurricane Bureau. It could not be closed immediately just because it was said to be closed.
Even if Lu En was the director of the hurricane bureau, he couldn't just make a decision and shut down this place.
He must hold a meeting and vote on this matter.
Fortunately, although there are hidden dangers in the shelter, it will not happen immediately. They still have time to prepare.
Just when the two of them had just finished this topic, the door to the office was suddenly pushed open.
An agent hurried in and the first words he spoke surprised Lu En.
"Chief, come and take a look! We found something in Nebraska!"
The agent said breathlessly, obviously having just undergone strenuous exercise.
Lu En frowned. He knew that his subordinate's temperament could make him put on such an expression. It must be unusual.
Without saying a word, he motioned for the agent to lead the way.
Upon seeing this, Beru followed them consciously.
The three of them walked forward and arrived at the intelligence control center on the ground.
At this time, the intelligence center was already busy, with people walking back and forth, and various phone calls kept coming. The agents didn't even bother to say hello to the director after they saw him coming in person.
"General Moore, we are investigating. I will send you detailed information via the encrypted frequency band later..."
"Congressman Hamilton, please don't be anxious. We have just heard about what happened over there. The location of Platt Town is too remote. It is difficult for us to detect such a situation immediately..."
"Ms. Hannah, we have a branch in South Dakota. If a new target is captured, we will send it to the containment department there as soon as possible..."
"..."
The surrounding agents and intelligence personnel kept answering the phone, and it seemed that they were all from other departments of the US government.
Lu En walked straight to the main console. There was a middle-aged black man who was still talking on the phone. When he saw his boss coming, he immediately apologized and hung up the phone temporarily, and hurriedly greeted him.
"Director, you are here."
Lu En stood where he was just now, looked at the screen in front of him, and asked:
"Glass, what's going on? Where is the emergency? Why is there such a chaos here?"
The black man Glass leaned down and operated on the keyboard for a while, bringing up a ground interface.
"Director, we just received a report that some anomalies were found in the sky above Platt Town. It is an orange-level warning and we need to go to investigate immediately."
"Platte Town?"
Luen was unfamiliar with this name, but the other party had already enlarged the map to reveal what it looked like.
It was a place located at the border of Nebraska and South Dakota. It was a small town with a small area and no reputation. It was normal for the director Lu En not to know about it.
"The small town of Platte is located in northern Nebraska and has a small population of less than 500 people."
Glass zoomed in on the map over the town while explaining the situation there.
"Almost all the people there are elderly and rarely have access to the Internet, so the incident happened for a few days, but it never spread."
"One of our agents passed by there while on a self-driving tour and happened to notice something unusual there, so he immediately sent the news back."
As he spoke, another video image popped up on another screen.
The video looked like it was taken with a mobile phone. It was a bit blurry and not particularly clear.
In the image, the sky of the town seemed to be covered with a small shadow, and something seemed to be flowing in that shadow.
"Zoom in and see what's going on."
Rune said.
Then, as the image shrank and zoomed in, the shadows became clearer.
"Is this... lightning...?"
At the edge of the shadow, hundreds of tiny air currents were seen spreading in the air, and the circles looked like small lightning bolts.
The scene in the sky is too conspicuous. Although no danger has been seen so far, anyone with a discerning eye can see the abnormalities there at a glance.
"When did this shadow appear?"
"About three days ago, the residents there had already seen it but didn't pay much attention. They thought it was just a strange-shaped dark cloud."
Glass explained.
"By the time our people discovered it, the scope of this shadow had expanded a lot, and there seemed to be something else inside."
As he spoke, he paused the video and zoomed in. In addition to those lightning-like traces, there were some strange figures in the sky.
"Alien species! It's indeed them!"
Lu En whispered, recognizing the true identity of the shadow at a glance.
Because the appearance of this thing is exactly the same as a certain monster in their containment department!
Gargoyle!
Lu En's face turned ugly.
No wonder, no wonder those guys were so panicked.
Judging from the number of figures in the shadows, there must be at least 100 of these gargoyles.
With so many gargoyles, no matter where they appear, it will be a disaster.
Gargoyles are as strange as their name suggests. Their bodies are very hard, just like stone statues. Not to mention ordinary bullets, even grenades that explode at close range cannot harm them.
When Rune and others were capturing the gargoyle, they finally dispatched the Black Hawk helicopter and used rockets to injure it.
This kind of monster is not a real stone statue. They just have very hard skin on the outside and the same muscle tissue as normal creatures on the inside.
And when this kind of gargoyle stands still, it looks like an ordinary sculpture, so it has such a name.
In fact, the words "Stone Demon" were not given by the Hurricane Bureau, but came from the Huaxia Kingdom on the other side of the Water Blue Star.
The same goes for the name Alien Species, which was shared by people over there.
After experiencing the mutant beast incident in Bali, China disclosed some research information on that monster to other countries.
It was at that time that the name Alien was officially passed to the Hurricane Bureau.
Lu En still remembers that at that meeting, a man named Hu Hu once said this:
"Regarding the sharing of this information, I believe that this will be an attempt to attract others and an expression of sincerity. We have drafted a preliminary plan and hope that everyone can unite to form an alliance parliament dedicated to To share information related to alien species and conduct related support operations within a limited scope.”
The proposal of this plan directly caused the representatives of all parties participating in the parliament to explode.
Everyone discussed it with their staff teams for a day, but in the end, except for one or two small countries, no representatives from other parties gave any affirmative or negative answers.
This plan is indeed quite involved. Although according to the plan, it is only about sharing information related to alien species, there are still a lot of things involved.
Therefore, that session of parliament was not over, but was postponed to one month later, at which time representatives from all parties would make their final responses.
As the director of the Hurricane Bureau, Luhn, of course, personally participated in that meeting as a representative.
But like everyone else, he has not yet reached a final conclusion.
In other words, he actually has a preference in his own mind, but this kind of thing cannot be decided by him alone. It also needs the approval of other parties in the country.
In general, the proposal of sharing alien intelligence involves many things, and it is difficult for everyone to work together and unify in a short period of time before seeing a real crisis.
However, the Department of Irregularity only proposed a plan, and could not expect a one-time success. The whole process needs to be done step by step. If we are the first to propose it now, we will be able to occupy more space in the future when we actually face the great integration. initiative.
In any case, with the partial information shared by the Abnormality Department last time, other countries have also enjoyed a lot of benefits, such as the gargoyle in front of them.
According to the information shared by the Department of Abnormality, the gargoyle is an extremely tenacious monster and is classified into the "demon" category.
In addition to their super defense and strength, they also have an ability similar to mind control.
The gargoyles themselves are black, and they are good at hiding in the darkness. Their most conspicuous part is the two scarlet eyes.
At night, once humans come into contact with their eyes, they will lose consciousness almost instantly, and their bodies will be controlled by the opponent to a certain extent, and they will turn to attack their companions.
It was precisely because they knew this in advance that when the Hurricane Bureau captured the gargoyle some time ago, there were no casualties and the possible losses were minimized.
But now, the shadow of a large-scale gargoyle has appeared in Platt Town. Although so far, it is limited to a form similar to projection, but no one can guarantee what will happen next.
"Glass, arrange for manpower to go to the scene immediately! Notify the nearby garrison and be sure to surround it as soon as possible! The residents of the town also need to be evacuated immediately! Jonathan is not here now, and you will be the first commander in Button City. , I want to go there myself!”
Glass was startled for a moment, then immediately came to his senses and said, "Yes."
Beside, Beru's eyes always stayed on the screen.
But compared to the gargoyle that Lu En and others were paying attention to, he had been looking at the dark shadow.
The hurricane bureau, which has not yet received the intelligence sharing, may not know what that thing is, but he knows it very well.
Compared with the gargoyles, the shadow is truly terrifying!
Because that is the sign before the dimensional crack appears!
The so-called small lightning is not an electric current at all, but a strong fluctuation before a crack occurs in the space!
And judging from the size of this shadow, the level of the dimensional crack this time does not seem to be low, at least reaching the small to medium level.
"No! I must report this news to the organization immediately!"
A warning bell sounded in Beru's heart. After he separated from Lu En, he went straight back to his room, then went under the bed and took out a suitcase.
In this suitcase, there are contact information left for him by the organization.
Under normal circumstances, they have organized people to contact Beru unilaterally on a regular basis.
However, there are exceptions. If Beru encounters an emergency, he needs a way to proactively contact the Star Alliance.
Opening the box carefully, Beru flipped through a pile of clothes, and finally took out a bundled scroll from the bottom of the box, just like when he took out the physical enhancement scroll at home.
But unlike physical enhancement, the scroll in his hand has another powerful ability.
Invisible!
Yes, the contact method Yang Yangyang handed over to Beilu was not some fantasy remote sound transmission rune, nor was it a communication device such as a watch, but the most innovative way of invisibility.
As Yang Yangyang, who is in charge of Beilu, it's not that he doesn't want to provide sound transmission runes and the like.
However, no similar dark energy formula has been found in the Naihe organization so far. Unless someone develops such a formula in the future, normal communication between members will rely on watches.
It's a pity that high-tech equipment such as watches cannot be given to Beru under any circumstances.
Because of the environment he is in, it is very easy to be discovered carrying such an item. Once the people from the hurricane bureau find out why he has such an item, it will be impossible to explain its origin, and all previous efforts will be in vain. .
Therefore, after much thought, Yang Yangyang finally found a more unique method, which was to become invisible.
With the help of Canglan Department and others, he left an operating secret door in a utility room of the Communications and Logistics Department of the Hurricane Bureau. A phone there will be able to directly communicate with the outside world.
Under normal circumstances, except for the communication center, the telephones in other places are internal telephones and cannot be dialed externally.
Now, all Beru needs to do is very simple, is to tear open the scroll in his hand, gain the ability to become invisible, and then he can walk over in a swagger, pick up the phone and report to them what just happened here.
Of course, this so-called invisibility is not actually invisibility, but the "expelling spell" that Zhang Xiaoman often uses.
As long as this dark energy spell is blessed, ordinary people without dark energy will subconsciously ignore his existence, thus achieving the invisibility effect from another aspect.
