A possibility appeared in Lu En's mind that he was reluctant to believe.
"The images captured by the Explorer are the same as those on that mysterious island. Is it possible that all of this is related to that organization...?"
This thought appeared in his mind almost instantly, making his face look ugly.
If this is really the case, then what's the point of everything I had planned before?
What secrets of the moon, what extraordinary origins, what kind of early arrival.
It's all ridiculous fantasy.
This place has long been someone else's back garden, where did I get the opportunity?
"No... maybe things are not as bad as imagined... maybe this place just shares the chaotic magnetic field phenomenon with the mysterious island, but it does not mean that the organization must be among them..."
Lu En's eyes shone slightly, feeling a glimmer of hope.
The more he thought about this idea, the more likely it became. After all, what he saw now was just the natural phenomenon of magnetic field chaos, and he did not find any traces of activity in it.
On the side, a group of people in white coats were still beating their chests, technicians were frantically looking for solutions, and the entire control hall fell into chaos.
Two hours later.
"What! You said you want to continue the moon landing program!?"
The old man in a white coat looked at the middle-aged man in front of him in shock, with a look of disbelief on his face.
"Matthews, you must be crazy!"
After he finished speaking, he paced back and forth in the room, as if thinking about something.
"Professor Houston, you know, we have no other way now. If we want to find out what is hidden on the moon, sending people to the moon is the only way."
Lu En was sitting on the sofa opposite him, trying his best to persuade the old professor.
"Professor, you are the director of the space agency. Don't you want to find out the truth there? This opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! If you can jointly propose with me, then combined with the current situation, I believe this plan should be passed of."
The old man's steps paused slightly when he heard this, obviously moved by Lu En's words just now.
Yes, as someone who comes from aerospace-related fields, he is more eager than anyone else to understand the mysteries of the universe.
Not to mention the huge spear on the back of the moon, even if these things did not exist, he was the first person willing to support the moon landing.
"Matthews, you're right, it's just..."
He hesitated and said:
"It's just that it costs too much money to go to the moon. If it's not attractive enough, those damn guys won't agree..."
"The mysterious spear, the origin of myth, the secret of the universe... and even the extraordinary power hidden behind it, isn't all this attractive enough?"
Lu En interrupted him and said:
"You should also know about those damn monsters outside, right? It's not certain what the world will look like next. If we fall behind during this opening ceremony, how will we catch up in the future?"
"So, it is imperative that we carry out our plan to land on the moon. We must not only go up, but also go up as quickly as possible! Three months. Within three months, we need to reach the moon and figure out what is going on there! Find it. The secret!”
Houston's eyes widened and he said:
"Three months? Matthews, are you crazy? Do you know how long the Apollo project took? That was 8 years! You want us to condense 8 years into 3 months to complete? Do you think it’s possible!?”
Lu En looked at him and said:
"Professor, you and I both know that this is entirely possible. Our current aerospace technology and reserves have greatly surpassed those of the past. Three months is enough to transform a manned spacecraft!"
The old professor was silent for a long time and then said:
"But... that will require more funds, and I don't think those greedy vampires will agree..."
Rune shook his head.
"Professor, just leave this to me. What I need now is your signature. As long as you agree to this plan, our plan will be half successful..."
The conversation between the two continued for a while before it ended. By the time Lu En left the office, it was getting dark outside.
…
"boom!"
In Button City, on the streets of St. Peter, a huge roar sounded, and a wall fell down without warning.
The crowd made a small commotion, and the pedestrians passing by were all startled by this sudden change.
"what happened?"
A black guy was the closest, and he bravely walked over to check out the situation.
But when he looked at the dark stone behind the wall, his body couldn't help but tremble, and an inexplicable sense of crisis emerged in his heart.
However, the black guy was just an ordinary person living in the city. Even if he felt this kind of heart palpitations, he didn't take it seriously and continued to walk forward.
This is not to say that his IQ is too low and he does not know how to avoid crises, but that it is difficult for people who grow up in such an environment to have any real sense of crisis.
If it were the group of mercenaries from the Wildfire Mercenary Hall who were here, they would probably have stayed away at the first opportunity.
The crowd of onlookers gathered around more and more, and they all poked their heads to see what was going on behind the broken wall.
"Dong dong dong..."
Suddenly, a series of heavy muffled sounds came from behind the wall.
The sound sounded like some kind of footsteps, but if it were footsteps, it was too heavy, as if it could only be made by dinosaurs in the Jurassic movie.
By this time, the crowd, no matter how slow their reaction was, knew that there might be danger here, and some people began to slowly retreat back.
However, there were still a few bold ones who stayed there, driven by curiosity, which made them forget their fear for a while.
"Dong dong dong..."
The footsteps got closer, now approaching the wall. Even the black guy at the front couldn't help but stop and began to hesitate whether to turn around and leave.
As if he knew that the person outside wanted to leave, the guy inside suddenly quickened his pace and suddenly opened the hole, revealing the true face of Lushan.
It was a black monster with a height of two and a half meters.
Its whole body is covered with scales, and its body shape seems a bit round. Combined with its oval-shaped head, it looks like a funny big fat man.
It's just that the monster's face has a bloody mouth and two crab-like eyestalks hanging on it, making it hard for people to laugh.
With a look like this, let alone a smile, if placed in a fairy tale book, it would definitely make all the children sleep well.
"ah!!!"
The crowd suddenly erupted in sharp screams. The men and women looked at the monster that suddenly appeared in front of them in horror, and turned their heads and ran away.
The black boy was the closest. His hands and feet felt cold at the moment, as if he were tied up with heavy shackles. No matter how his brain issued instructions, he couldn't move.
"Kekeke..."
There was a rumble of unknown meaning in the black boy's throat, like a puppet, and he watched helplessly as the monster walked up to him, pinched his neck, and held him like a chicken. The boy was lifted up.
"Don't, don't...don't kill me..."
The black boy finally said a complete sentence, but this sentence also became the last words in his life.
"Click..."
There was a slight sound of bones breaking, and the monster twisted off the young man's head, then placed his body on the other side and drank the blood in large gulps.
When the people around them saw this scene, their faces turned pale with fear. They all lost their legs and fled frantically into the distance.
Pedestrians and vehicles in the distance still didn't understand what was happening in front of them. Some were infected by fear and ran behind the large army, while others couldn't restrain their curiosity and stopped to look ahead.
It was the evening rush hour, and the streets were blocked for a while. There were cries and curses mixed together. Someone accidentally fell down and was almost drowned by the swarming crowd. If he hadn't been so excited that he got under the car. I'm afraid he's been trampled to death by now.
On the other side of the cave entrance, after drinking the young man's blood, the huge black monster showed a satisfied expression on its face. Its body seemed to expand, becoming even larger than before.
At this time, there was no one else within fifty meters around except a blind homeless man.
The monster didn't seem to see the tramp, and just walked past him, with its eyes hanging in front of its head, turning around as if looking for the next prey.
"Susususu..."
The monster licked its mouth and made an unpleasant sound.
Except for a big mouth full of sharp teeth and eye stalks, there are no other facial features on its face, no nose, and no ears.
Immediately afterwards, both of the monster's eyes turned to a certain area with a larger number of people. Like a beast that had discovered its prey, it chased after it with heavy steps.
Although this monster looks very bulky, it runs very fast and can easily catch up with the crowd in front of it.
"Dong dong dong dong!"
As a series of footsteps approached, the people at the end screamed in terror, pushing their hands and feet and squeezing forward.
Some people saw that they would not be able to survive for a while, so they rushed into the shops on both sides in an attempt to escape in this way.
The crowd shouted extremely loudly, and the monster seemed to be stimulated by some kind of excitement, and rushed in with an excited roar.
…
A moment later, when dozens of police cars finally got through the crowded crowd and arrived, St. Peter's Street was already dead silent.
A police officer planned to open the car door and get out, but found that the ground outside was covered with blood, and a strong smell of blood came in from the window.
"Fake! What happened here...?"
He cursed lowly, endured the discomfort and walked out.
"Click, click..."
Dozens of police officers slowly moved forward, and suddenly they heard a sputtering sound coming from the road not far away.
The street lights stood here and there, many of them losing their light, making the street dark.
"Da da da da..."
In the sky, a police helicopter flew over, and its searchlights lit up the small street in an instant.
"Oh! Buy it! Embarrassing!"
When everyone saw the scene on the street, they couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise.
I saw a black monster over three meters tall sitting in the middle of the road, holding a human limb in its hand and sucking it, surrounded by broken limbs.
Seeing this hellish scene, the police officers all changed their expressions. Even the helicopter in the sky shook. It was obvious that the pilot was also frightened.
"Fire! Fire!"
The middle-aged police officer did not hesitate at all. When he ordered everyone to fire at the monster, the scene was filled with gunshots.
"Bang bang bang!"
"Bang bang bang!"
"Bang bang bang!"
"..."
American police officers are usually equipped with Glock pistols. For humans, the power of this pistol is naturally enough to kill a black driver who is taking out his driver's license at close range.
But if you want to hurt this huge monster in front of you, it's obviously not enough.
"We need support! We need support!"
When the police chief saw this scene, his expression suddenly changed, and he immediately shouted into the intercom.
"Da da da da da..."
In the sky, police helicopters also opened fire like monsters.
Compared with those small pistols, the helicopter's equipment was obviously much more powerful. Its series of machine gun bullets fired at it, finally making the monster take two steps back.
But the effect seemed to only stop there. The black monster was obviously irritated. He looked up at the helicopter in the sky, jumped up randomly, and actually jumped into the air on the spot, grabbing it with one hand. .
"Ahhh!!"
The pilot's screams came from the intercom, and blood and sparks flew from the helicopter. It only swayed in mid-air for a while, and then fell down, making a huge explosion.
A group of police officers looked at this scene with horror on their faces. At the same time, they were secretly looking forward to it, hoping that the monster would be drowned with the explosion.
However, their expectations were soon dashed. Everyone saw a figure slowly walking out of the helicopter wreckage. The surrounding flames did not seem to affect it at all. There was not even a single scratch on the monster's body. .
"Gudong..."
The police officers swallowed and looked at the small Glock pistols in their hands. For a moment, deep fear arose in their hearts.
"Roar!!"
The black monster licked its mouth, then let out a roar, stepped forward and rushed towards the crowd.
