Shen Lin's main problems recently should be around the ghost festival incident and the reform meeting. Shen Lin's team is currently recuperating due to the various encounters in the corpse swamp incident. He does not remember any other research reports that Li Geng needs. To analyze.
Li Geng rubbed his face, his expression a little unnatural.
"It's a message from the headquarters. It seems to be an emergency. We were not notified in advance. The headquarters specifically asked us to put this document in your hands, Captain Shen."
These words made several people sitting in the living room look over.
Su Yonghe threw the game console on the sofa rudely and spoke in a bad tone.
"It doesn't help much because I'm busy, but I have more and more tasks every time."
Zhao Ziliang, who was resting on the sofa with his eyes closed, opened his eyes and rarely agreed, "That's not true."
Whether in the confrontation with the Revolution Council or in the desperate situation of the corpse swamp incident, the headquarters did not give Daxia much help. Even after solving the corpse swamp incident, it was only resource help. These resources were limited to There is no gold or supernatural items at all.
It is impossible to say that Shen Lin's team has no resentment. They helped, and they did the dirtiest and most tiring work, but the final result turned out to be another trouble.
This is really rude.
Shen Lin opened the file in his hand in silence.
[Terrorist Incident in the Ghost Restricted Area of Yang'an City. 】
[Codename: Huangquan Road]
[Danger level: unknown]
[Incident Overview: Unknown]
[The law of evil spirits: unknown]
[Existing information: The overall manifestation of this terrorist incident is a winding path similar to a tomb passage. The length of the path cannot be detected. The starting point and end point are unknown. There are trees on both sides of the road like the torches of tomb candlesticks. Everyone who walks on the road to hell has disappeared and their whereabouts are unknown. . 】
[Note 1: The current observation of this terrorist incident is that there is no active aggression, and the judging pattern is most likely related to the "road" itself. 】
[Note 2: This terrorist incident covers a very wide area. It is judged that it is likely to occur in several cities, and the possibility of it being regular is very high. 】
Several unknown labels in succession made Shen Lin raise his eyebrows. It would be an exaggeration to say that the headquarters knew nothing about this incident. This situation is relatively rare. Wang Xiaoming's team is not a waste of money. The headquarters also has a relatively professional staff team and trace investigation team. If the headquarters can be forced to directly seek help from one of the captains, it proves that the headquarters has at least tried hard, but the results are not ideal.
Under such a complicated situation, the information on the incident codenamed "Huangquan Road" is still so blank, which is enough to illustrate the degree of trouble of this incident.
Shen Lin frowned and looked down. The information in the file had been exhausted. What was left were some photos from the incident, most of which were taken from the outside of the "road."
Shen Lin picked up a photo and looked at it.
As described in the archives, there is a winding road with candlesticks on both sides. The scary atmosphere reflected by the candlelight on the road in the dark is very similar to the tomb passage described in movies or novels.
Shen Lin looked at several photos in succession, and they were basically the same.
The same thing is that the photos were all taken on the road codenamed "Huangquan Road". The difference is the angle. These photos are just scenery taken from different angles. Other than that, there is no difference.
"It's not like a ghost realm. The ghost realm's invasion of reality is more like the overlapping of two worlds. This road is very reasonably connected to everything around it. Judging from the current conditions of the road, especially the candlelight, I don't know. How long has it been around?”
It is generally impossible for normal people to see high-level ghost realms. This road is now so conspicuous that not only ordinary people can even take photos of it, so the possibility of ghost realms can basically be ruled out.
But if it's not a ghost domain, how can something like this make a road covering several cities appear out of thin air?
"A brand new supernatural zone?" Shen Lin frowned and thought.
The candlelight in the photo made Shen Lin look twice, and the strange familiarity of the supernatural zone gave him a weird feeling.
According to the description in the archives, the candle has been burning since the appearance of this road, and it has not burned out until now. This cannot be satisfied by ordinary explanations.
The only possibility is supernatural items.
Either the candle itself is a ghost, or the candlestick beneath the candle is a supernatural object.
This underworld is ten meters long and has a candlelight, winding through several cities. If these things are supernatural objects, then this road must be so terrifying.
Shen Lin didn't know many supernatural areas.
One is the area where the ghost pawn shop is located. Shen Lin has experienced the horror of that supernatural area during the epidemic ghost incident.
The other was a building boat floating on the water that he had seen in the ghost story incident. The boat was brightly lit, with lanterns hanging high, and human figures could be vaguely intertwined.
Shen Lin had never had in-depth contact with either of them.
Until the resurgence of terror, humans still don’t know much about ghosts, let alone this kind of supernatural zone that is similar to a forbidden zone for ghosts and gods.
"Who sent this information? Wang Xiaoming?" Shen Lin asked. In fact, he didn't feel that this was Wang Xiaoming's approach. If Wang Xiaoming wanted him to intervene in this matter, his approach would be smarter and not so straightforward. , giving a file like a command.
Li Geng smiled awkwardly and gave Shen Lin an answer that he expected.
"It's an order directly issued by Minister Cao. I asked my colleagues at the headquarters and it seems that all the 12 captains have a copy, but it is only for intelligence. There are no orders or anything else. Participation is entirely voluntary." Li Geng wanted to win respect for the headquarters. , explained.
"What about Li Jun and the others? If only one or two captains are involved in the incident, the headquarters should not come to us."
Not everyone in the Twelve Captains is exactly the same. There are people like Shen Lin, Yang Jian and Li Leping who go their own way, there are people like Wang Chaling who plan strategies on both sides and have personal plans, and there are also factions that are close to the headquarters.
This category is dominated by Li Jun, a direct descendant of the headquarters, and Cao Yang, who was later supported.
Li Jun and Shen Lin have had quite a lot of contact. Loyalty, courage, and command and control are all the advantages of this person. In other words, Li Jun has many advantages, but his advantages are not applicable to terrorist incidents.
The era of terror resurgence requires a group of people with distinctive styles, their own ideas, strong ability to respond to emergencies, and extremely high execution ability.
Li Jun is obviously not such a person, and Shen Lin is also not optimistic about this person's future.
As for Cao Yang, Shen Lin had only heard about it and had not had much contact with him.
"This matter is not clear. The headquarters maintains a high level of confidentiality regarding captain-level intelligence, and ordinary people cannot access it." Li Geng said.
"However, the headquarters conducted an all-staff broadcast early this morning. The content of the broadcast was to seek solutions to the out-of-control problem of the ghost painting incident in Dajing City."
"Um?"
Shen Lin's brows raised fiercely.
