Traversed to the Ark of Tomorrow, but was a traveler

A few minutes later, at an altitude of [-] meters, the three people sitting on the floating slate watched with relish the pirates who were packing up their things below, and listened to their exchanges with each other. The vicious atmosphere made people laugh.

Anyway, Xia Lan was watching with a smile all the time, and at the same time was distracted by maintaining the concealment spell.

"Oh, they are leaving. Where is this cave?" Shasha looked at and said, urging Xia Lan to watch from a different angle.

They floated quietly in the sky, raised a little distance, looked down at this rather huge dormant volcano, and soon observed a huge mine and many mines leading to the mountain with pure naked eyes. road.

And the pirate miners are going to a mine about one kilometer away from them, and its altitude is about [-] meters higher than the original one.

"Wait a minute, Xia Lan, there seems to be traces left by other humans at their destination. Is it a running mechanical device?" Titi suddenly asked.

"Huh?" Xia Lan showed a faint look of surprise, and subconsciously remembered what happened in the plot when Rhodes Island and a group explored the volcano—but Eyjafala didn't come to Rhodes Island at all this time, so he wouldn't let Tianhuo and Provence came to detect the volcano!

Although the two of them still came to Kiesta, they must be different...

"I don't know, let's go and have a look and talk about it, but from the conversation between them just now, the two sides should not be the same group, maybe there will be some conflicts, maybe there will be justice from heaven or something." Xia Lan said casually, controlling the airflow and pushing them over there.

At the same time, a palm-sized optical stealth drone rose from the mine robbers, passed through the forest, and flew towards their destination.

1 minute later.

The technician in charge of controlling the drones of the Pirates Group detected the professional exploration equipment outside the cave, and immediately reminded in a deep voice: "Someone is one step ahead of us."

Hearing this, the rest of the people stopped and looked at the stereo projection adapter he took out to identify the device.

Although they did not bring large and medium-sized equipment this time due to capacity issues, they are actually equipped with more advanced mine exploration equipment, so it is not difficult to identify them.

"Although the geological prospecting equipment produced in Columbia [Sun Valley] is not specifically aimed at mineral resources, it is very good at detecting geological structures. This group of people should be the official monitors of Zista to check the volcanic activity. "One person said.

"What should I do, do I need to contact them?"

"Wait a little longer." The team leader thought about it, recalling something that the [connector] mentioned intentionally or unintentionally when he sent them in - there will be a volcano exploration team active in the mountains in the past few days. You don't have to be soft-hearted.

But beyond the possibility of extra "rewards," he worries about their being used as a weapon.

But then, he was in a trance unconsciously, and said what he was still hesitating in his mind: "Let's touch it first, and get close to the geographical advantage within a few hundred meters of the other party's camp, and wait for them to find out. number of people before considering action.”

"Yes—" everyone agreed when the team leader was still in a daze.

When he came back to his senses, he immediately felt that he was talking too fast, but after thinking about it, he still didn't say anything, and led the team forward.

While on the road, he also turned on the communication terminal and sent related inquiries to the [connector], but he didn't get a reply immediately.

"Is that all right?" Xia Lan helplessly looked at the excited Sha Sha beside her.

"Yeah!" She nodded, looking expectantly at the group of pirates who took action again, always feeling that some kind of strange attribute had already taken root in her body.

Xia Lan didn't have much opinion on the "director" this time. One was that he was confident that he would be able to control the scene, and the other was that these bandits were not kind people, so there was no need to treat them kindly.

Two 10 minutes later.

Xia Lan looked at the red-brown haired Caprini girl who came out of the cave, and after a moment of surprise, she showed a deep sense of surprise. She never expected that fate would meet here in this way.

"Huh?" He suddenly noticed a different place, and subconsciously made a doubtful voice, but this doubtful emotion turned into an extremely strong surprise in the next moment-she has not yet contracted ore disease!
Aiyafala, her life is completely different from what fate wrote!
From this moment on, many things that must be done arise in his mind, but before that, the first thing to do is to calm the situation.

"Is she also the one who was going to come to Rhodes Island? It seems that she is not infected with ore disease." Skadi read his thoughts and tilted her head to look at the girl who was operating the instrument.

"Well, she is a volcanologist. She originally contracted ore disease in the environment with high concentration of origin stones that is common in volcanoes, and her condition gradually worsened due to the nature of her research. Later, she came to Rhodes Island for treatment. It's the kind that is seriously ill." Xia Lan explained.

"I didn't expect that she wasn't infected with ore disease, so I should invite her to Rhodes Island." Xia Lan touched her chin and said, planning to abduct her first.

"We're going to send some weird people to Rhodes Island again, right? What did Kelsey tell you?" Di Tiwan reprimanded.

"This is the person who was going to go to the island, can it be the same!" Xia Lan said righteously, began to lower their floating height, and leaned towards them.

As Eyjafala and his team began to pack their things, the pirates also saw that they were pure scientific researchers, so they immediately planned to act first.

[Connector]'s reply has arrived: try to eliminate these volcano monitors as much as possible, they are very important.

……

At the same time, Kiesta City Hall, the mayor's secretary's office.

Cronin put down the special terminal in his hand, tapped the table with his fingertips, and thought about the information he got from "those people" with a slightly worried expression——

Who invited those volcanologists?
Who quietly got those exploration equipment?

And who put the city hall's volcano prospectors in the mountains that require approval to enter?

As the mayor's secretary, he knew nothing about it.

"No, you have to add an insurance." He finally said in a deep voice, took out another terminal, and made a call.

……

The angle of view returns to Xia Lan's side. Under their gaze, the ore piracy group chose to strike first - the magicians in the team created a path of origin stones that is easy to run, and quickly moved forward under the cover of heavy equipment , another archer also quickly ran along the cliff to a commanding height for shooting, and unfolded his compound bow.

At the same time as they made a huge magic reaction, the volcano prospectors were shocked suddenly, and looked at a group of people who rushed out of nowhere in the mountain with astonishment, and realized that something was wrong after a while.

"Everyone, back off...they are not good people!" Adele immediately shouted coquettishly, raising her staff towards the person who came.

The operation unit at the tip of the staff suddenly lit up, and as her dress was blown by the heat waves, a curtain of fire suddenly erupted on the other side's way forward, trying to interrupt their progress.

The rest of the people had never seen such a battle, and they were scared out of their wits, and their thinking froze for a moment, and they couldn't hear Adele's warning.

"Whoosh!" A piercing sound came down suddenly, and an arrow shining with white air flow tore through the wall of fire at once, and was nailed to the leg of a surveyor.

"Ah!" The man who had just reacted suddenly staggered and fell to the ground in fright, crawling backwards in confusion.

"how come……"

A look of anxiety appeared on Adele's face. Looking at the enemies passing through the hole in the fire wall, she once again raised her magic staff, fully activating her innate spells.

A fireball the size of a head bloomed beside her, shooting towards the opponent.

But just as they were about to touch Mi, the dull sound of air flowing penetrated everyone's minds.

"Buzz!" The crisp air pierced through everyone's hearts from top to bottom, and then they saw a half-solid, half-empty sword-shaped object descend from the sky and plunge into the rock.

The strong light flashed away, and the solid barrier spreading around separated the two sides in an instant.

Seeing this, the leader of the mine robbers immediately raised his hand and made a gesture of emergency stop, while looking upwards.

A figure shrouded in gray mist, who couldn't tell whether it was a man or a woman, walked down from the air until he reached the middle of the two sides. After a slight pause, he said in an indistinguishable voice: "This farce should it's over."

Then, "he" raised one hand, and bright patterns spread from his feet, flocking to the pirates who were about to retreat, manipulating the rock to completely wrap their legs.

Arcane runes covered the sorcerer in their ranks, interrupting the man's counterspell.

Afterwards, the rock tide turned and completely suppressed them who were still struggling, and in the end only the head was left for simple struggle.

Shasha withdrew his palm wrapped in the gray mist, lightly clenched his fist, then put down his hand, looked at the group of people who were looking at him in confusion, and pretended to say loudly: "It's all right, you can inform Xi Si Tower City Hall, detain all the thieves who stole the treasures in the mountains."

Adele froze for a few seconds, then timidly agreed: "Thanks...thank you for your help...how do I call you?"

Shasha waved his hand lightly, pretending to be deep and said: "You don't need to know my name, but maybe we still have a chance to meet again in Xista."

"Oh... yes..." Xiao Yang agreed dumbfoundedly, but glanced at the volcano monitor A who dialed the communication of the city hall, and the other party actually dissipated into the air.

"Is this a clone constructed by magic?" A subconscious guess emerged in her heart.

At the same time, returning to Xia Lan, Sha Sha, who couldn't help laughing all the time, finally couldn't help but patted his smooth thighs, and said with a light smile, "I finally understand why you like to stand behind the scenes and do something, Xia Lan. It's like a sculpture, carving the fate of others into what you want with one stroke!"

"Almost." Xia Lan shrugged and smiled.

On the contrary, Titi was not interested in this, but felt that it was too bad-but it was actually quite good to sit outside and fish without having to fight in person.

"How about we go down and meet them as ordinary tourists?" Xia Lan suddenly suggested.

"Yes!" Shashadang said affirmatively: "The murderer just likes to return to the scene of the crime after the crime is committed. Although it is different, it is very interesting~"

"Then let's go." Xia Lan nodded and descended into the forest below.

After a roundabout climb, three tourists who were full of surprise and curiosity appeared in the sight of both sides, and they didn't know what to say to each other for a while.

"It's you!" Shark shouted first, pointing his fingertips at the two miners trapped in the rock, his face full of curious speculation.

……

At the end of the performance, Xia Lan expressed to the Volcano Monitoring Bureau that they were ordinary tourists, and said that the main reason for coming here was that she saw the soaring fire just now at the foot of the mountain, and she came here out of curiosity.

The members of the Monitoring Bureau also briefly explained their mission and what they just encountered, which made Xia Lan and the others very surprised.

"So, are they mercenaries, or are they thieves who stole minerals from the mountains?" Xia Lan rubbed her chin and said the "guess" she had known for a long time.

"Maybe, we don't know why they suddenly attacked us, and they ignored us when they asked us just now." Adele, the lamb, replied, looking back and forth at the terminal in her hand as she spoke. The data.

Now she looks a little more professional and mature than in the game, and a little less youthful and ignorant - this must have something to do with her eyes that are much more agile than Li Hui in the game.

"Well, what's the matter?" She noticed that Xia Lan seemed to be looking at her all the time, looking at him strangely.

The other party had two traveling companions, but she didn't subconsciously think about emotions.

"It's just a feeling..." Xia Lan scratched her head and asked, "Are you a natural disaster scientist? I see that you have been calculating data related to volcanoes. Do you have a regular job now? There are also natural disaster researchers in our company." s position."

"Eh?"

"Eh?!!" Xiao Yang screamed suddenly, with two blushes rising on his face, he said in confusion, "You, what are you talking about, I...I..."

She was confused for a long time with her mind full of chaos, and she came back to her senses when she saw Xia Lan walking towards the trapped pirates, and asked in a weak voice: "Well, what exactly does the company you mentioned do?"

——She does not have a fixed job at present. She has been walking alone on this land, doing free but unsupported volcano research work, and accepting research commissions everywhere.

Xia Lan explained: "It is a ore disease pharmaceutical company, which has excellent ore disease prevention and treatment technologies. Although you have not been infected by ore disease, problems are prone to occur in the volcanic environment for a long time... and our company also has There are many researchers from all over the world in the Department of Natural Disaster Research, so I have the idea of ​​inviting you."

"Oh...oh." The dubious lamb stroked his hair and asked, "Then, where should I find it?"

Although it's not clear yet, anyway, she has no place to go after completing this commission, so she might as well try the pharmaceutical company Xia Lan mentioned that sounds good.

"Oh, our name is [Rhode Island Pharmaceutical Company], let me give you our company code...we have an official website." Xia Lan took out the terminal as she spoke, but what she got was a surprised sigh from the lamb:

"I've heard about you guys. In fact, I saw your recruitment notice on the Internet, but I didn't go because I had something to do at the time. I didn't expect to receive your invitation under such circumstances!"

……

In this way, Xia Lan talked about the doctor's matter with Xiaoyang again, exchanged terminal communication methods with her, and made an appointment to guide her to meet the doctor after dinner today, and then consider cooperation matters at that time.

When they were almost finished chatting, the people from the Xista City Council also rushed to the scene, bringing the magic prohibition shackles, electronic shackles and other tools to detain the pirate group, and they also returned by car.

But to Xia Lan's surprise, the vehicle that the lamb was on did not go with them to the administrative area of ​​Xista City, but turned halfway and drove towards the industrial area in the suburbs.

"Hey, shouldn't they be sent to the city hall to hand in the detection results?" Xia Lan asked the driver suspiciously, just like ordinary tourists.

"Oh, the Volcano Monitoring Bureau is set up there, and that's where they go to hand in the mission." The driver replied.

Although the other party replied in this way, Xia Lan naturally knew that what the other party said was not true.
