According to Hethana, the "mysterious space" was discovered after a small collapse in the quarry - as an excellent building stone production area, this mountainous area has been excavated by the Hethiana family for more than half a century, and various experts hired by the family have long carried out comprehensive exploration and mapping of the entire production area (mainly because Hethanna has been obsessed with digging treasures out of the ground), so theoretically if there are any pits and natural caves underground, it should have been discovered a long time ago.
However, after the last small collapse, a crypt appeared in the corner of the quarry that should not have existed.The crypt was so deep that it opened to a vast space, and if it had been hidden underground in the first place, Heatherena would have strangled every geologist she had hired, at least in her mind.The cave was first discovered by two human workers, who were ordered by the foreman to inspect the equipment damage and rock cracks after the collapse, and a crack in the rock wall that was apparently caused by the collapse accident aroused the curiosity of the two silly daring people, and no one could say how they thought of going in to see it instead of rushing back to report it, maybe a few bags of large bags found in their dormitory.
Ma can explain a thing or two - in short, these two explorers got into the crack in the rock wall, and found that it was an open cavern.The exit at the end of the cave leads to an ancient city.They may have seen something else in the cave, or maybe there were remnants of poison gas or radioactive energy fields from mythological times in the ancient city, and the two workers had been missing for a day and a night, and only crawled back into their quarters the next evening, one of them completely insane, the other somewhere between mad and half-mad, babbling nonsense.It took another day for the Hethanna family's supervisors in the area to receive the news, and by this time rumors had already spread through the quarry.The hapless foreman was dismissed from his post for failing to report the missing person twenty-four hours after his disappearance, and the overseer made contact with the two surviving workers - fifteen minutes later, what was happening was brought to Heatherian's desk.Then the vampires from the upper echelons of the family directly blocked the entire quarry.Before entering the cave, Hao Ren and his party, led by Heatherian, first met with several people involved in the incident, both human and non-human.The meeting took place at the mine office, and was attended by five people, two of whom were locals, stout, dark-skinned, thick-haired, but sluggish and full of gibberish, apparently the two workers who had first discovered the cave, and a half-grown old man in a suit, gray-haired, and behaving like an old gentleman, who had a human-like temperament, and who was the district supervisor set up by the Heatherian family, and at the back were a pair of young men and women.
They were dressed in casual clothes, one handsome and the other pretty, and with their extremely young appearance, they looked the least like managers - but in fact, before the arrival of Heathera and Hao Ren, the two of them were the highest status people who appeared here: they were the people sent by the Heatherian family to deal with the incident.However, now that the patriarch of the family has been here, this incident is clearly beyond the power of these two commissioners.With the exception of the two workers who were no longer able to communicate well, the three people who entered the office were in awe of Hethiana, and they saluted respectfully, and then bowed respectfully to Hao Ren and his party, who were standing with Hethanna (by the way, they paid attention to Vivian, who looked almost identical to Hethanna).The little bat spirit interrupted their troublesome process and asked neatly, "How is the situation in the mining area now?"
”The overseer cautiously glanced at the male vampire next to him, obviously he was not easy to talk without his superiors speaking, the vampire also realized this, so he nodded: "Patriarch, the mine area has been sealed down according to your orders, but the emotional problems of the workers are becoming more and more obvious - the reason we gave is that Francisco and David may have been infected with bacteria in the cave, and the people they come into contact with later may also be infected, so no one is allowed to leave until the risk is ruled out, But it won't last long. ”Francisco and David are the names of those two hapless workers.Hethiana pinched her eyebrows and turned her head to look at Hao Ren: "Hey, do you have that kind of pen that glows when you press it?"
And then shaking it in someone's eyes can make people lose their memory or something?
”Hao Ren made a straight face: "We are a formal functional department, and we don't engage in these crooked ways - and you bear the copyright problem?"
”"I'm really worried about me," the little bat spirit frowned, "this place is really a piece of rubbish, and everyone knows about it, and he doesn't want to kill people these days......
Tsk, it's hard to do......"
Of course, Hao Ren knew what the little bat spirit was worried about, so he said casually: "It's not simple, after we finish investigating inside, we will blow up the connection between the different space and the real world, or simply blow up the entire different space, and then you can investigate whoever you want, anyway, they can't see anything else except a stone cave, you can also send someone to spread more sensational stories nearby, and then no one will believe the genuine rumors." ”When Hethanna heard this, she felt that it made sense, and after thinking about it, she was still happy: "If you say that, there is really no trouble......
Ah, yes, run it well, maybe I can still toss a sightseeing project here, and you can buy tickets to make money after the quarry is dug - who is that, Perrault, go back and investigate the potential of tourism in this place......"
The one called Perrault was the gray-haired "district overseer" who looked like a butler, and he seemed to have long understood where the powerful vampire patriarch had escaped, and after hearing this order, his expression did not even change, and he nodded and agreed- Anyway, two days later, Hethanna herself still remembered the idea, and she said it twice.And Hao Ren and his entourage were full of "this little bat spirit's business talent is simply TM" - except for Lorisa, the one-and-a-half-year-old Queen Her Majesty didn't understand what Heatherana was doing from beginning to end, she was just curious about everything in this place, and was busy observing everywhere at this time.Vivien knocked on the table, drawing Hethana's attention back: "You can figure out the matter of the quarry yourself, now let's take a look at the two workers." ”Two deranged workers, who had lost the ability to act independently, were carried into the office.Outwardly, they do not have any visible injuries on their bodies, and it is said that there is no organic damage to their nervous system after examination, and it is clear that the cause of their mental abnormalities is more complicated.The worker named Francisco was in a more serious situation, he had completely lost the ability to communicate at the moment, he stared at the ceiling with wide eyes most of the time, and kept muttering unrecognizable voices in his mouth, even if he took out the data terminal as a translator, he couldn't understand what he was muttering, while the worker named David was in a slightly better situation.A little better means that at least he mutters a little louder than Francisco, and at least a few words he can understand.“…… Cavern......
Fog......
Cannibalistic ......
Slaughter......
Monster ......: "This is what the data terminal finally translated after trying to distinguish it for a long time.""
Their condition is worse than before," the young female vampire explained, "at first the two humans showed a strong emotional response, yelling and struggling, but slowly they became like this, they appeared to be quiet, but their thinking abilities were degrading in a straight line, and their physical strength was inexplicably lost, neither medication nor magical stimulation had any effect. ”Vivien frowned and scrutinized the condition of the two workers: "Looks like a curse......
It's like a trauma to the soul.Anyway, you two little guys should have already entered that alternate dimension, what is there there that could lead to this result?
”The two young vampires glanced at each other, and then the male vampire spoke: "We just observed on the periphery, and we didn't rush deep - the entire alien space is shrouded in a strange pale red light curtain, and there will be a strong sense of crisis after entering, and the warning magic props we carry with us have been warning since entering the alien space, but we can't be sure where the threat is coming from."
Neither Rose nor I felt that we were being attacked, but after spending a while in the other dimension, Rose's skin began to dry and ablate, and I began to feel weaker, so I had to turn back immediately. ”Hao Ren glanced at the two young vampires: "Are you sure you didn't feel any attacks during the whole process?"
”The two vampires nodded their heads repeatedly, and Hethanna also said beside them: "These two guys are the most honest in my family, and even the most dishonest ones can't lie to my face." ”The two vampires nodded even harder."
It seems that there is something wrong with the environment in that alien dimension, perhaps the energy field that covers the entire space, and this energy field is beyond the usual means of detection, so that as long as you are in it, you will be violated and it will be difficult to detect," Izax also bent down next to the two human victims to inspect, while speaking his own guess, "In my hometown, many powerful curses can cause this effect. ”"Can these two people be saved?"
Hethanna asked—even though these two humans were only the lowest workers of her vast family, the existence of the Hethanane family, she couldn't help but ask."
Don't worry, you can't die," Hao Ren smiled confidently, "I won't be able to live anywhere else, but have you forgotten my medical technology?"
If the grave grows grass and is half a meter high, I can save it for you.I've got a medical pod in my space - I'll put these two in and treat them later, and let's go to that 'other dimension' to have a look." ”
