Schneider, Fingel, Norton, and Mai Shutoku stood on the deck, looking at the island getting closer and closer. Everyone had a different mood.
Mai Shutoku's mood was depressed, but also filled with strong curiosity.
After all, she had been trapped in this eternal realm for months.
Norton is much more serious.
He could feel the terrifying energy contained on the island of Avalon.
That kind of energy frightened him.
Odin's accumulated strength over the years was placed on this island.
This island is Odin's real territory.
Fortunately, no one can control the terrifying power that could destroy any large city in the world.
As for Fingal and Schneider, both of them had a bone-chilling chill.
Even the sound of Schneider breathing oxygen became much louder.
"As far as I know, professor, you seem to be the team leader of Project Greenland ten years ago?" Mai Shutoku looked at Schneider and asked casually.
What happened back then, few people know.
The sound of Schneider inhaling oxygen sounded again. He looked at the approaching island, and a cold voice came from under the mask.
That sound could even make one imagine that the muscles on his face that were covered in frostbite were twitching.
He said, "To be precise, that was eleven years ago."
"Everyone knows what Kassel does."
"This is an academy designed for slaying dragons." At this point, Schneider turned to look at Norton.
Norton raised his eyebrows and looked back, "Professor, remind me, you are already the former minister. After all, what are you looking at? I am not the Dragon King."
Hearing this, Mai Shutoku and Fingel couldn't help but glance at this guy.
Schneider looked away.
I just suddenly felt a little bit unpredictable and a little bit outrageous.
Schneider never thought to his death that this would be something Angers could do.
After Cassel's power change, Qiang became stronger than before.
only...
Schneider shook his head, "Kassel has nearly 12,000 professionals around the world looking for dragon tombs all the time every year.
In the autumn of 2001, on the Hunter Forum, a person with the ID name 'Prince' posted pictures of bronze pillars appearing in the Greenland Sea.
"We all know that the Dragon Clan likes to inscribe various historical events and important events on bronze pillars.
Kassel will not sit idly by regarding matters that may be related to the Dragon Clan. "
"It's just that the school board was more urgent than the executive department about the traces of the dragons. Under the urging of the school board, Cassell launched the 'Greenland Plan,' which the school board claimed was foolproof.
The best commissioners of that year, with the school board of directors attaching great importance to it, got ready to set off out of curiosity about the dragon relics.
Our elite team searched the Greenland waters for a long time, but did not find the bronze pillar in the picture. "
Speaking of this, Schneider's voice seemed to have a hint of fear, and his voice was trembling a little.
The scene of that year is still vivid in my mind.
His hands, which looked like they had been burned, gripped the guardrail hard, and the veins on his hands bulged because of too much force. "On the contrary, we heard the heartbeat from the deep sea!"... .
Schneider took a deep breath of oxygen, his chest heaving violently, and he was obviously not in a calm mood. "The Greenland Ice Sea is not as deep as the Japan Trench, and there are large animals such as beluga whales and tiger sharks living in the Greenland Ice Sea.
When we used sonar to scan the seafloor, the heartbeat we captured was thought to be that of a large beluga whale or tiger shark.
But after we searched for more than a month without finding any results, we had to focus on the heartbeat sound scanned by sonar. "
The sound of exhalation under Schneider's mask is somewhat
"It was only then that we discovered that this heartbeat had not shown any signs of movement for a month. If this heartbeat was that of a beluga whale or tiger shark, it should be wandering around hunting for prey, rather than staying there all the time." in one place.
From this we speculate that this heartbeat sound may come directly from the seabed! "
"There is something that uses the seabed as its burial place and the entire ocean floor as its womb."
"After experiencing life, death and cocooning, it is gradually waking up!"
"After extensive analysis, we suspect that the strange heartbeat sound under the Greenland seabed comes from a dragon embryo that is hatching."
"Since the establishment of the Secret Party, we have only obtained one dragon embryo beyond the third generation.
The lineage of those embryos was too weak, not nearly as strong as what we heard in the Greenland Sea. "
Under the mask, a look of fear appeared on Schneider's face, "That kind of heartbeat, when you notice it, it seems to resound in every cell in your body."
"So you guys went down?" Mai Shutoku asked.
Schneider shook his head, "When powerful dragon embryos hatch, they will create a realm.
Once humans enter that area, strong current signals will stimulate the human cerebral cortex, resulting in fatal hallucinations, so we initially only used underwater robots to perform tasks. "
“But once the underwater robot enters that area, it will immediately lose contact, and we will not get any information.
Finally the school board seemed to have exhausted its patience and ordered us down. "
Schneider closed his eyes, but he still felt cold, and the screams under the ice sea still seemed to echo in his mind.
"What did you see?" Norton asked.
"Six of the best young men at the time went down, and they were fearless," Schneider said.
"There are five of them." Fingel, who had been silent until now, suddenly said, "One of them escaped because he was drunk."
"But after knowing what happened, he disobeyed orders and dived without authorization, so he was still number six." Schneider glanced at Fingel. "If he hadn't drank, then he would have been like the other five forever. I stayed in that dreamy country."
Fingel looked up, his eyes a little red, "If possible, he would prefer to stay in that country."
In this way, he would not have suffered for eleven years.
Schneider did not answer Finger's words and returned to Norton's question above. "After the five people who dived reached 300 meters under the sea, they seemed to have fallen into some kind of illusion. ...
They were talking nonsense in the channel, and they seemed to see a door.
But is there even a door under the sea?
They are trapped in a hallucination.
They're going to push open that door.
For unknown things, you must not bang. I instinctively felt that I could not push the door open, so I called them desperately, and even asked them to float up immediately.
But they couldn't hear it at all and were trapped in their own fantasy world.
They should have pushed open the door. "
Schneider clenched his fists, "Their terrified voices and dense gunshots rang out on the channel.
They seemed to have seen something terrifying. "
"There was no sound on the channel very quickly, so I decided to go down and check it out myself."
"When we dived 170 meters to the bottom of the sea, the temperature of the seawater began to drop sharply."
"This is 170 meters under the sea!" Schneider said. "I can only think of one thing that can make the water temperature drop quickly."
"dragon!"
"The seawater within the domain condensed into ice at a speed visible to the naked eye. I will never forget that scene."
"Did you see it?" Norton asked, "What did it look like?"
Schneider shook his head, "I only saw its blurry black shadow, but it's just a black shadow and there's no way
Use words to describe its beauty, its mystery.
It is like a totem on an ancient mural, as light as a butterfly, with its slender tail slowly swaying and stretching in the water. "
"I didn't know what it was. It should have noticed me, so I shot it with a Russian-made underwater assault rifle."
"I'm not sure if it was injured, but I did smell a strong smell of blood."
"The smell of blood penetrated my nose from the oxygen mask, but I didn't suffer any injuries, so the blood was not mine."
"After the smell of blood appeared, the seawater in the field froze faster. My oxygen mask cracked, and the bone-chilling cold penetrated into my body from my nose and every pore on my body.
I was able to escape entirely because of the timely arrival of the rescue team. "
After Schneider finished speaking, he unplugged the oxygen tube and replaced it with a new oxygen bottle. He continued expressionlessly, "The tragic price this time has made us want to find it and pour our anger on it."
"But, since that time, we can no longer find any trace of it in this sea area."
Schneider's tone paused, "Combining the information seen by the five outstanding commissioners who disappeared and the sixth commissioner who later dived without authorization, we have reason to suspect that they opened that door, and that door , is the entrance to a certain Nibelung."
"In the following time, the vice-principal even came to the location of the incident several times to detect, but his alchemy was unable to detect the existence of the Nibelungs. It was like that door, the Nibelungs, and It’s like it doesn’t exist.”
"It was even suspected that it was just an hallucination caused by stimulation of our cerebral cortex."
Fingel raised his head and took a sip of wine, "No, that's not an illusion."
Mai Shutoku and Norton looked at Fingel.
They saw the regret and pain in Fingel's eyes.
"I was the sixth commissioner who drank and escaped death," Fingel said.
He laughed at himself and said, "Because I drank, I avoided death. How ridiculous."
"Did you see that door?" Mai Shutoku heard Fingel talk about him for the first time.
Perhaps, this is the secret that Fingel has been keeping in his heart.
This is also the reason why Fingel has been so decadent in the past eleven years.
"I saw it." Fingel said softly. Thinking of that scene, his heart throbbed violently. The pain was so clear and obvious, as if it reminded him of his incompetence all the time. , His cowardice, he is just a loser who relies on women to survive.
"I was pushed out of that door by her." This burly man, this muscular man, showed such emotions in front of others for the first time.
The pain of losing a loved one, the regret, the powerless feeling of one's own incompetence, even alcohol cannot numb it.
Over the past eleven years, he has always wanted to enter that kingdom again, that dreamlike, eternal kingdom.
In the first half of his life, he was confused and ignorant, but he was high-spirited and was the leading figure in Kassel.
The rest of his life was filled with failure and decadence, but he was destined to live for that dreamy country.
In order to return to that country, he will do whatever it takes!
