On the Caribbean coast, Puerto Rico is a country that is as small as it gets. The population is only a few million, which is not comparable to a first-tier city in our great empire. No one knows what kind of secrets are hidden under this small island.
The island is mainly based on tourism, and the scenery of the Caribbean Sea attracts tourists from all over the world. However, recently, there was a piece of news that was not big or small, which attracted some local attention.
A company came out of nowhere and invested in purchasing a piece of land on the island. The reason why it attracted attention was that the land was a well-known haunted place in the local area. There is a lighthouse in that area, but it has not been used for many years. It is said that it was originally abandoned because it was haunted.
After the unknown company bought that piece of land, it got a lot of instruments and tinkered with it for a long time, seeming to be looking for minerals and the like. But in the end, he found nothing and left in despair. It became a joke locally. But the other party finally bought the place. So it became a private area and entry was prohibited.
And it was a dark moonlit night. A heavily armed special forces team quietly entered the land. And at the bottom of the lighthouse, a simple elevator was built.
"This underground ruins has a very special defense measure. All electronic equipment will be disabled. We speculate that this is because electronic equipment may interfere with the ritual. Therefore, all entrants must put down their electronic items. Also, Everyone must wear this full-body protective suit. There is some kind of defense system inside that will affect the mind of the body in contact."
After some arming, most people stayed on the ground. Shen Yi, on the other hand, took White Ghost and went underground with Skye. But there is also a special person on this trip, Bruce Banner.
Banner was finally convinced by Shen Yi and was willing to try what he called mental surgery. But that method cannot be accomplished in a short time. So Shen Yi invited him to participate in Skye's awakening ceremony.
"I will let you see that you are not the only one special in this world." These were Shen Yi's original words. As a scientist, how could Banner resist the attraction of such unknown things. Finally, we came to this underground ruins with them.
"The entire architectural style does have a certain religious flavor. But it is not any religion on earth. So, are these the ruins of aliens?" Banner walked among the ruins and decisively turned on the scientist mode. Start analyzing what you see along the way.
"Obviously so. This ruin, and indeed Skye's race, were essentially born of alien intervention."
"Everything looks familiar to you. Have you seen them? Those aliens?"
"No, and I don't want to see them at all. We just know a lot of historical truths and can deduce all this. Believe me, those aliens are very dangerous existences to humans."
"Then why did they create us?" Skye suddenly spoke at this time.
"……war."
"So, we are actually some kind of weapon?"
"Absolutely. It's just that some problems occurred later. Maybe the experiment didn't meet the requirements, or the weapon went out of control. In the end, they gave up here. But your blood has been passed down. Although in the long evolutionary career, gradually, are invisible. But they still definitely exist.”
Shen Yi walked deeper into the ruins while explaining some doubts to them. Although it is underground, the ruins are extremely large. Moreover, the various branches were intricate, and it took them three hours of walking before they finally reached the center of the ruins.
It was a very visible altar. It is surrounded by six huge stone slabs. The stone slab is standing sideways, with the appearance of an altar exposed in the gap.
The overall structure is extremely simple, just a standard stone pillar. There is a not too big or too small groove on it. Apparently this is where the obelisk was stored.
Shen Yi signaled White Ghost to place the obelisk on the altar. After waiting for a while, there was no change at all.
"So, this is...a failure?"
"No, it's not yet time. The obelisk needs sunlight to activate. The sunrise is about half an hour away. Skye, you can make preparations first. Move your body, meditate, and relax your mind. Now, we Everyone get out. Outsiders like us are very unwelcome in the Awakening Ceremony."

In the Tri-Wing Building, after many twists and turns, Natasha finally returned to the headquarters, and she didn't bother to take a rest, so she gave a comprehensive report just like Nick Fury.
"We were trapped in a barn. To be precise, they entered there on their own initiative. The commander of the school team made the decision. Only then did I understand that it was because the valley was the center of the town. After that, they The called for reinforcements arrived. In fact, I didn't see the scene outside. But I calculated accurately that a total of eight minutes had passed from the time the fighting started outside the barn until it ended."
"Their reinforcements took out a small armored force in eight minutes?"
"No, this isn't the most terrifying thing. In fact, when we finally pushed open the barn, there was only one person to greet us..."
"...Do you know what you're talking about?"
"I am very sober. There is only one person, and his whole body is covered with various cold weapons. It looks like some kind of ninja weapon. And behind him, there are countless broken limbs. All of them were killed by cold weapons. That kind of thing.”
"A ninja troop?"
"Theoretically this should be the case. But my intuition tells me that there is actually only one person..."
………………………
In the ruins, with the arrival of morning, the sun slowly rose. A beam of sunlight shines through the hole at the top of the ruins and onto the obelisk.
Skye was surprised to find that the entire obelisk began to appear a flowing golden color. It's like some kind of energy running in a specific route. And this phenomenon is spreading rapidly, affecting the entire secret room. And the stone slabs around the secret room began to move slowly.
"It's starting." Shen Yi was the first to notice this phenomenon.
"It's unbelievable. This is an energy conversion technology. Judging from this situation, this system has almost perfectly converted all solar energy. Only then can such a huge mechanical equipment be operated." Banner looked intoxicated. Look at everything in front of you. As a scientist, nothing attracts him more than a brand new technology.
At this time, the stone slabs had gradually closed. The last thing Shen Yi saw was Skye's calm and determined expression.
