Pollution throughout the territory

Niu Changshou's hesitant expression aroused Xia Ren's suspicion.

He vaguely felt that something bad had happened.

As expected, Niu Changshou pulled up a chair and sat down at the end of the bed. He clasped his hands together and pressed his forehead with a tangled expression.

However, he finally raised his head and said:

"Xia Ren, I'm sorry, Qin Yun and Lu Yi are missing."

The sunshine outside the window is just right, birds are chirping on the branches, and the gentle breeze blows the white curtains and flutters gently.

Xia Ren sat on the hospital bed, his eyes slowly opened and his pupils shrank.

"What did you say?"

"We have sent people to search everywhere. As soon as there is news, we will notify you immediately."

Niu Changshou spoke faster and said: "At the auction venue, as soon as we came out of the Scarlet Ceremony, someone lurked behind us, covered the Trapezohedron box, summoned the Night Demon, and caused huge chaos.

It was pitch dark and all light was expelled. The wizards united to resist the attack of the Night Demon, sacrificing many people. When the chaos was over, we discovered that Qin Yun and Lu Yi had disappeared, along with the three folk remedies. Octahedron. "

Xia Ren recalled the man wearing a purple trench coat he saw before he fell into coma.

"...Liu Fusheng."

"What?" Niu Changshou didn't hear clearly.

That provocative smile, if he had only seen it once, he would not do it intentionally. He must also know what happened when he was with the kind personality.

Xia Ren said to himself: "It's Liu Fusheng. He knew that I betrayed him, so he deliberately abducted Qin Yun. However, Du Yuanjing had a strange feeling for Qin Yun, so he either followed him on his own initiative, or stopped him. He was also taken away when he was young, so he disappeared together... He was taking revenge on me."

"Do you know that person?" Niu Changshou asked.

"Of course, and technically speaking, we are relatives."

At this point, it is useless to complain and regret, and there is no way to blame Niu Changshou. After all, he followed him to Arkham to help himself. No one expected that such a thing would happen.

Xia Ren briefly told him about his relationship with Liu Fusheng, including that he had been hunted by the foundation and his relationship with Qin Yun.

After hearing this, Niu Changshou was a little surprised: "I didn't expect that the newly promoted S-class investigator of your foundation would also have contact with him. But, does he have a dark personality..."

He lowered his head and pondered for a while, then said: "Although Arkham doesn't care much about the flow of people, as long as you have lived in Arkham, there will definitely be clues left. I will ask the people from the Wizards Alliance to help check. Maybe Can find clues."

Xia Ren looked at him and asked: "I actually wanted to ask before, why do you know so much about the Wizards' Alliance? Also, aren't you from the Superman Association? Why do you think the Wizards' Alliance will listen to your opinions and help me."

Niu Changshou's expression froze, he sighed and said, "Forget it, I told you at the auction that I would tell you.

In fact, that was more than sixty years ago..."

His eyes flashed with memories as he talked about the past.

As early as more than sixty years ago, Arkham was not as hidden in the darkness as it is now, and pollution incidents in the world were far less common than they are now. Human beings were still actively exploring outer space, and could occasionally watch it on TV. to launch satellite news.

Everything is so normal, so nostalgic.

Among the well-known famous universities on Blue Star at that time was Miskatonic University in Arkham City. Many renowned experts in the scientific community graduated from this university and later became professors of this university. professor.

There are countless geologists, archaeologists, paleontologists, folklorists, etc. It can even be said that Miskatonic University contributed at least half of the historical research results of the entire Blue Star.

Originally, if it developed normally, the school would continue to maintain its status, continue to output scientific research results, and train more outstanding students. However, in those few years, drastic changes suddenly occurred.

In fact, the professors in the college had a vague premonition a long time ago. These premonitions came from various aspects, such as government restrictions on research areas, large blanks found when exploring certain ancient books, and some statues and statues circulating in the dark. Abnormal worship by a small group of people, unexplainable phenomena that gradually occur more frequently, and so on.

The event that confirmed the professors' premonition first appeared in 1040. The Supreme Alliance Government organized a scientific research team to go to the depths of the Wuji Icefield to explore the hidden area that no one knew about. At that time, several professors from Miskatonic University He was also in the scientific research team, but just like what is recorded in the current history books, the scientific research team all disappeared and there was no news again.

But what is not recorded in the history books is that Miskatonic University later organized several rescue teams to explore the situation. One of the rescue teams successfully reached the mountains protruding from the Wuji Icefield, and discovered a terrifying discovery there. the truth.

"At that time, I was still a professor in the Department of Archeology..."

When Niu Changshou recalled that past event, he could still feel the suffocation he felt.

After going through untold hardships, the two professors who finally returned to the academy from the Wuji Icefield have become crazy. Their eyes, which were originally full of wisdom, were full of fear and madness.

They are unable to communicate with others most of the time, and they just keep repeating nonsense from their mouths that no one can understand.

The two professors occasionally had moments when they were sober. When their students and colleagues who were also professors asked them about their experiences in the depths of the Wuji Icefield, both of them kept silent very tacitly, as if they had agreed to keep each other's secrets. , never mentioned the experience of that rescue, or even the natural landscapes observed along the way.

When other people played their insane ravings to the two of them and wanted to know the secret behind them, both of them excitedly denied that they had said anything like that.

Not long after, the Supreme Alliance government took away the two professors on the pretext of providing better treatment methods. After that, no one saw them again.

Due to the Wuji Icefield incident, Miskatonic University lost a large number of students and many professors one after another. However, the Supreme Alliance government that organized the operation deliberately concealed the facts and ignored the consequences. In addition, it has long-term disregard for archeology. The combination of restrictions and blockades in multiple fields and the accumulation of multiple factors finally aroused the anger of young and energetic students.

Since then, the atmosphere of the entire college has shown a tendency to be in opposition to the government, and the future of the college seems to have inevitably slipped into an endless abyss at that time.

Then, Niu Changshou said a fact that shocked Xia Ren:

"The Salvation Foundation you are looking at now, the World Superman Association, including the Wizards Alliance, were all formed after that, and the founders of these organizations were professors and students at Miskatonic University."
