The Psychic Resurrection: Riding the Mirage
Chapter 119 Preparing for Exploration
He Ming's character has changed a lot. He has really received careful training and resources from the headquarters. Moreover, he was a high school student who has not yet entered the society. He has not yet been determined and has strong plasticity. During this period, his growth can be seen with the naked eye.
"I heard that you are the captain in charge of this exploration mission. Congratulations, the headquarters has given you such an important responsibility." Hu Jiu said.
"No way, my identity is the most suitable. On the surface, I am the ghost controller who solved the first S-class supernatural incident in the country. I am more authoritative." When He Ming said this, he frowned slightly and looked at elsewhere.
"If you have anything to say, just say it. You don't have to hesitate with me." Hu Jiu looked considerate.
He Ming sighed: "Let me put it bluntly, as the captain of this exploration mission, I actually feel a little unsure. The headquarters brags about me, but I know how much I have. This mission is very important. , There are many ghost masters from all over the country, and I have no confidence that I can command those veteran ghost masters. "
To say that he can't command is an understatement. The experienced ghost controllers may provoke him or even stumbling him for various reasons, such as being jealous of his fame in the supernatural circle, testing his true strength or weakness, or simply being jealous of him. I don't like him. He also knew that despite his junior qualifications, his status was above everyone else, so it was normal for him to be unhappy when others looked at him.
"So, what do you want me to do?" Hu Jiu asked seriously.
"Let's cooperate." He Ming stated his intention directly.
Although he has joined the scientific research department, He Ming used special means to bypass the constraints of the ghost contract. He will not obey orders when necessary. For example, when he encounters a good treasure, he would rather keep it private than hand it over, so this time He didn't trust any of the ghost controllers sent by the Scientific Research Department to participate in the mission, and even had to find a way to separate from them in the ancient tomb to avoid being spotted.
However, He Ming's time as a ghost master was too short. Most of the time he was active under the nose of the headquarters. He had no chance to establish friendly relations with other ghost masters. After counting, only Hu Jiu was familiar to him. insiders.
He Ming has read Hu Jiu's information and his resume is very clean with no bad records, so he is very inclined to cooperate with Hu Jiu, both emotionally and intellectually.
"I agree." Hu Jiu thought for a moment before giving a clear answer.
"Very good." He Ming showed a big smile, "Let me put it bluntly, this exploration mission is more dangerous than imagined. The higher the benefits, the greater the risks. There are indeed many good things in the ghost tomb, but If you are not careful, you will die. It is safer to explore in a team than to act alone. Do you have any other trustworthy ghost masters? Join our team. "
Nominally, the ghost masters who responded to the call from the headquarters to participate in this mission are all teammates, but in fact they all play different roles and are not very familiar with each other. They are even on guard against each other to avoid being stabbed in the back.
Hu Jiu thought about it and said, "No."
He has no friends he can trust. The teammates he once performed missions with are all dead. There is no time to cultivate friendship, and he doesn't need that kind of thing.
Hearing this, He Ming had no choice but to give up: "Don't forget the meeting at two o'clock in the afternoon. Don't be late."
"knew."
The phone hangs up.
Hu Jiu sorted out his equipment and rested in the room.
Time passed slowly, and Hu Jiu arrived at the temporary conference room five minutes before two o'clock in the afternoon.
Before approaching the room, I noticed an extremely cold and ominous atmosphere from a distance. There was a uniformed commissioner. When he saw Hu Jiu, he quickly stepped forward and said politely: "Mr. Hu, please come this way."
These specialists responsible for leading the way should have very good memories and can recognize everyone present at a glance. If the wrong name is called in such an occasion, it will be embarrassing and may even be dangerous.
After pushing the door and entering, he saw a large conference table with many people already sitting on the seats. As soon as Hu Jiu walked in, several people looked up at him and then immediately lowered their heads, wondering what they were doing.
Hu Jiu is really mediocre and cannot attract much attention from others.
He walked quietly to the place where the plaque with his name was placed, and took a look at the people present. Most of them were still in normal human form, but they were affected by the ghosts, their faces did not look like living people, and they had a strange smell on their bodies.
But there are also a small number of people who have become completely inhuman, such as a mummy whose whole body is wrapped in bandages with no eyes exposed, or a soldier mercenary who has a large area of his body made of ceramics and is covered with tiny cracks... …
Some people were playing with their mobile phones alone, some were closing their eyes and concentrating, and some people gathered together to communicate in low voices. The scene was quite harmonious.
Suddenly, Hu Jiu's intuition noticed that a vague gaze always fell on him, with an inquiring and unfriendly look. As soon as he turned his head, he saw a thin man about thirty years old, with a blue complexion, slightly protruding and bloodshot eyes, and a scarf around his neck. Seeing Hu Jiu looking over, he immediately moved his eyes elsewhere, pretending that he was just looking casually. look.
Hu Jiu took note of this person.
"Hi~, long time no see." A voice said hello in my ears.
Hu Jiu turned to the direction of the voice: "It's you. How are you doing recently?"
The tall man nodded. He was very close to Hu Jiu and sat down. The female ghost controller who came in with him sat next to him. Hu Jiu quickly glanced at the seat plate with his 2.0 vision. Their names - Fang Qingqiao, Zheng Ling.
Now Hu Jiu remembered who it was. During the siege of Beifeng Commune, Hu Jiu acted with them. However, Fang Qingqiao had two female teammates around him at that time. Now only one is left. He doesn’t know where the other one is. Where is it?
Hu Jiu was not very familiar with them. After a brief exchange of greetings, Fang Qingqiao went to talk to others. It was obvious that he was a social person, and many people in the conference room were able to chat with him. Maybe he himself He must have some kind of strange affinity. Although he looks ordinary, he can make people feel good about him.
Two o'clock arrived quickly. The conference room was not full and some people were absent. At two o'clock, He Ming came in and sat at the top of the conference table. He said solemnly: "Hello everyone, I am He Ming. I am the guest of the ancient tomb this time. Captain of the exploration mission.”
"To make a long story short, everyone knows the requirements of this mission. You are free to explore and find out the information in the ancient tomb. All gains afterwards belong to the explorers who participated in the mission."
"Here, I would like to point out a few things to note. The first is that the ghost tomb is mobile, and its stay time in Lanqiong Mountain is uncertain. In the past, when the tomb appeared, the shortest stay time in the same place was only 14 days.”
"We will take the worst plan as our standard and set off to visit the tomb tomorrow. We only have one week left. After one week, the headquarters will terminate the collective exploration mission and decide whether to continue small-scale exploration depending on the situation."
"If someone is still in the tomb when the tomb leaves, you can only ask for good luck. Most of the time, the ghost tomb does not exist in reality, and only occasionally overlaps with large tombs in the real world. , if you are accidentally trapped in the tomb, then try to survive, maybe you can wait until the opportunity to return to reality. "
He Ming paused, looked at the expressions of everyone present, and continued: "When a ghost tomb appears, in addition to the tomb itself, there may also be a large number of abnormal phenomena in the surrounding areas of the tomb. The closer you are to the ancient tomb, the more abnormal it will be. The more danger there is, the more danger exists in the tomb, so please be careful."
"I will send you a piece of information later. It is some information and experiences I encountered when exploring ancient tombs in the past. There are not many explorations of ghost tombs in China. The last time the appearance of the ancient tomb was noticed, it had already It’s about to disappear. More detailed information comes from the pyramids in Egypt.”
"This is the main content of this meeting. If you have any questions, just ask and I will try my best to answer them. After the exploration mission officially starts tomorrow, although I am the captain, I will not restrict everyone's actions as long as there are no special circumstances. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately asked: "Captain He, what level is this mission defined at?"
He Ming replied: "It is tentatively rated as X level, an undetermined special mission. Since the situation in the ancient tomb is unknown, the specific rating needs to wait until the exploration is completed, and the headquarters will compile all intelligence data in detail before discussing."
Someone else asked: "Is there an approximate value for the explosion rate of supernatural items in the ghost tomb?"
He Ming shook his head: "No, this is not a copy of the game. However, there are rumors that Egypt's official supernatural agency once took out more than 20 supernatural objects at one time when the ghost tomb coincided with the pyramid, and the level of horror was very high. high."
So fierce!
Hearing He Ming's words, everyone in the conference room looked very surprised. Taking out twenty supernatural objects at one time was indeed astonishing. Many people are eager to try it, but forget to ask the price of taking out these supernatural items.
Maybe they also knew that there were heavy casualties, but...most of the ghost masters who could sit here and participate in the meeting were somewhat confident, thinking that they would be the lucky ones to survive.
When He Ming announced that the meeting was disbanded, the participants left one after another. The door opened, and a ghost controller with a pale face stood at the door, but no one paid him any attention.
He clenched his fists and rushed over to ask He Ming: "Why don't you let me in?"
"You are late." He Ming said coldly, "The headquarters specifically notified every ghost controller in advance, but you are still late. There are only three possible reasons for this happening. One is that you were really careless. To a certain extent; secondly, you encountered an unexpected situation; thirdly, you did it on purpose. No matter what the reason was, I have no reason for you to disrupt the order of the meeting and waste everyone's time."
There were many onlookers standing at the door of the conference room to watch the excitement. There were several people who were late for the previous meeting, but there was only this weird person standing at the door, insisting on asking for an explanation.
Only then did everyone realize that the security level of this temporary conference room was extremely high, and the late ghost masters could not force their way through the door.
He Ming's Mouth Escape output was very powerful, but the late Ghost Controller finally walked away in despair, with undisguised resentment in his eyes.
What a rare idiot~
"I thought we could start a fight~" Someone sneered in a low voice.
"The mission is imminent. If we take action at this time, our status will definitely decline, which will not be conducive to exploring the ancient tomb."
…
Hu Jiu returned to the hotel and waited patiently for the arrival of tomorrow. Taking advantage of this free time, he took out his mobile phone and logged into the Ghost Controller Forum to pay a little attention to the supernatural situation at home and abroad.
There were several discussion posts about the supernatural events that occurred in the capital, but they were all reduced to major issues and trivial matters, and no news about the invasion of the headquarters was leaked at all.
Very strict tone.
Many ghost masters posted that something happened in South Korea, a country where cults are everywhere. It is said that a certain sect actually summoned the "god" they believed in during a prayer ceremony, and then many incredible things happened.
Buzz buzz——
A strange number called.
Hu Jiu ignored it. This was his habit. When he was not a ghost rider, he hated answering the phone, especially calls from strange numbers. After becoming a ghost rider, he did not change this.
He did not want to answer the phone, but he was unwilling to press the hang-up button. He just ignored it and pretended that his phone was not around...
At this moment, Hu Jiu actually felt a trace of humanity left in his heart?
This was ridiculous. How could a strange call make him feel so complicated?
In the end, he still did not answer it.
The same number called twice again, and finally changed to a message-"Hu Jiu, I want to make a deal with you, can we meet?"
Hu Jiu still ignored it. The most important thing at the moment was to wait to explore the ghost tomb. An inexplicable guy frequently tried to communicate with him, which meant that the other party had something to ask of him. There was really no need to pay attention.
The sun gradually set, and the night covered the sky.
After dinner, just after a short rest, there was a continuous knock on the door.
Outside was a thin man in his thirties, with a blue face, bloodshot eyes, and a scarf around his neck. He was the man who had been peeking at Hu Jiu during the meeting. It seemed that he would not stop until he saw Hu Jiu. It was probably him who had called and sent the strange message just now.
Hu Jiu thought for a moment and opened the door.
"At this time, you are knocking on the door so frantically. Are you here to cause trouble?" His voice was cold and preemptive.
The other party's face was not very good, and his tone was a little impatient: "Let me introduce myself first. I am Gao Qiuhai, the ghost rider of the headquarters. I know you are Hu Jiu. You are really a busy man. You don't answer the phone or reply to the message. I really have something urgent to find you!"
"That's your urgent matter, not mine. I don't know you. Why should I answer your call?" Hu Jiu had a blank expression, "You can leave after you finish talking nonsense. I'm not interested in trading with you."
After that, he was about to close the door.
"Wait!" Gao Qiuhai took a step forward, stuck his body in the doorway, and raised his chin irritably and arrogantly, "Don't go too far..."
