Starting from the recovery of Shanhaijing

Chapter 86 The Headless Knight

Had lunch.

Ruan Xiaolian still had to go back to class.

Yan Jing, who planned to go to the library to stay for a while, thought that Professor Yu might still be there, so she decisively gave up this idea.

Yan Jing clearly remembered that what the other party picked was the book about the legend of Lord Lin. Even though she found out through Ruan Xiaolian that the other party was a professor who studied this field, she still had doubts.

After all, it was too coincidental that the other party consulted relevant books at this point in time.

Even if it is not the Ember Apostle, Professor Yu is probably an official consultant on folklore.

It was with great difficulty that Yan Jing established the trumpet Rajah, but she didn't want her efforts to be in vain.

Change into Raja's appearance and contact Wu Senyan.

The previous raids not only allowed the officials to successfully take down the worm nest, but also allowed them to obtain a lot of research materials.

Yan Jing and Wu Senyan had an agreement on this aspect.

He handed over everything related to the worm nest to the Special Affairs Bureau, and if the latter had any research results on the worm swarm, he had to share it with him.

The entrustment or task Yan Jing left before Lin Jun Cannian disappeared is quite caring.

You must know that [Brave Tiger Qi] is only an intermediate-level skill at present, and the word (incomplete) followed by the grade is undoubtedly a reminder to Yan Jing that Hu Junxi is not all.

As long as Mr. Lin's entrustment is completed, there may be follow-up rewards.

Regardless of other things, Yan Jing has tried the power of wild tiger aura in the past few days, and the bonus to attack is beyond imagination, not to mention the special effects of [fierce] and [killing evil].

Even without the powerful suppression of dragon and tiger energy against evil ghosts, it still has a pretty good effect.

After receiving Yan Jing's message, the Special Affairs Bureau immediately sent someone to pick it up.

It's not that Yan Jing is hypocritical and has to be invited, but that the air-raid shelter where the Special Affairs Bureau is located has been designated as an important military site, and Yan Jing has no chance to enter without a special person to lead it.

The place to meet was still in Group A of the Nine Divisions.

When Yan Jing arrived at the scene, she found that the lights in the empty floor had been turned off, and the wall on one side of the conference room had become a display screen, with images directly displayed on it, and the members of Group A were either sitting or standing looking at the screen.

Wu Senyan stood at the very front, holding a pointer in his hand and saying something.

"Luo Daochang, the Special Affairs Bureau just got the video data of the Headless Knights this morning. The captain is explaining this classic case to the team members. If you want to get the research results of the insect nest as soon as possible, I can take you to another Room."

An Ling guarded the door ahead of time, and when she saw Yan Jing appearing, she immediately approached and said.

"It's not urgent, can I have a look?"

Yan Jing looked at the magnificent church that appeared on the screen in front of her, and she was also a little curious.

"Of course, if you walk this way, you can get a closer look."

The so-called "Headless Knights" is actually a major catastrophic attack that recently occurred in front of a cathedral in a foreign capital, and its international popularity has completely overwhelmed the strange bird attack.

the reason is simple.

According to the data released so far, the incident lasted six hours from the beginning to the end, resulting in more than a thousand deaths and several times the number of injuries, plus various vicious incidents that followed.
In contrast, it is not uncommon for the news of the strange birds attacking Sanqing City to be completely ignored.

The picture in the video is a wide-angle lens of a drone. It can be clearly seen that there are still quite a few believers gathered in front of the cathedral. Some kind of religious ceremony should be going on at that time, and the believers sang hymns in unison.

Until the time in the upper right corner passed midnight.

Thick fog first appeared on the street floor on the left side of the square, and then a large number of cracks appeared, from which orange-red lava gushed out.

It was as if the gates of hell had been opened.

A whole team of headless knights straddling skeleton horses rushed out of the lava, and they rushed along the street without stopping.At this time, the believers in the church square have already noticed the problem.

The problem is that this is a mass gathering of nearly ten thousand people. How can it be so easy to evacuate in a short time?

The drone hovered high in the sky, fully documenting the hellish scene that ensued
"At that time, there were more than 100 media broadcasting the rally live, and more than [-] million people watched it at the same time. Even if the official cut off the line at the first time, it still failed to stop the rumors of the scene!"

An Ling stood beside Yan Jing and added in a low voice.

The religious gathering, which was supposed to be a sacred moment, was suddenly trampled and ravaged by a headless monster like a hell knight. Even Yan Jing, who had always been an atheist, knew how much this would have a great impact on the faith of those devout believers.

The screen continued to be played, and the local army, police and even the ember apostles rushed to the scene one after another.

Soon Yan Jing realized why this incident was called a classic case.

During the disaster relief process, these forces that were supposed to be united as one actually made major omissions in their cooperation.

For example, just as the Ember Apostles were about to step forward, the military RPG fired a volley at the Headless Knights, covering the former as well. As a result, the Ember Apostles were attacked by their own team before they could fight the monsters. Backstab.

Some of the Ember Apostles didn't have any rules at all, and only wanted to kill these monsters. In the end, whether the monsters were dead or not was another matter, but the surrounding people endured a wave of their attacks solidly.

The firepower of the police department is completely insufficient, and what is helpless is that on the premise that the weapons at hand cannot cause damage to the monsters, a considerable number of police officers did not choose to evacuate the crowd, but directly transferred to bystanders on the spot.

There is no word "people" in front of their titles.

A small number wanted to rush into the square to save people, but without a corresponding rescue plan, even if they entered the venue, they did not know how to evacuate.

The scene was extremely chaotic, and this kind of chaos was undoubtedly fatal to the people in the square who had not yet fled.

"Our luck is actually very good. The intensity of the strange bird attack was not high. The Special Affairs Bureau successfully carried it down and established its prestige. The work behind it is much easier to do. It is the first time they have encountered an attack of this level. If there is no time to organize, there will inevitably be chaos."

An Ling had already become a lecturer at this time, and said,
"It's ridiculous to say that these forces have no trust in each other. Before this incident happened, there had just been a local private pharmaceutical group assigning mercenaries to arrest the Ember Apostle. The latter's family found the government. By the time we get an answer, the family has disappeared.”

Wu Senyan did not mention some external factors, but analyzed the deployment and actions after the disaster broke out on the scene, including how to evacuate the masses, how to quickly and effectively carry out defensive counterattacks, and so on.

It is an old tradition to touch others to cross the river.

It was more than half an hour before the lights in the Empty Layer were turned on again.

Wu Senyan led a few people into the conference room and continued the topic just now:
"What you saw just now is just one of the catastrophic events that have occurred in various parts of the world in recent times. erroneous instructions."

"Has there been a disaster in other countries in the last two days?"

Pulling back the chair and sitting down, Yan Jing asked.

"Yes, probably those monsters also have a chat group. We discussed it in private. In the past three days, supernatural events with a scale and impact far beyond the past have erupted around the world. rules."

Zhao Qing, who came in behind, shrugged and made a joke.

If there are only a few places where supernatural events break out, it can be said to be a coincidence, after all, supernatural events happen all the time.

The problem is that these supernatural events have obviously stepped up in terms of scope, monster intensity, and the number of casualties caused.

This can never be a coincidence!

"Is there anything worth saying about the worm nest?"

Yan Jing didn't have time to think about these unconfirmed matters, so she got straight to the point.

"The results just came out last night, and I planned to send them to you after sorting them out."

Turn on the computer in the conference room and call up the information in it, Wu Senyan continued,

"The research institute has sampled and compared various tissues of worms, female worms, and strange birds, and found that there are genes similar to worms in the body of strange birds. In other words, they seem to maintain the bird's In appearance, there is no difference between them and insect beasts, and they are all under the control of the insect nest."

"This explains why this group of strange birds suddenly gathered to attack Sanqing City, but the reason for the attack is still unknown."

Judging from the state of the hives when they faced military attacks, they were not ready for battle.

That being the case, the reason why the mother worm controls the strange bird to carry out this air strike seems a bit counterintuitive.

The insect nests are buried in the ground, they carry out all kinds of camouflage, and they also specialize in spreading insects disguised as ordinary beasts, but they use air strikes to irritate the human side. It is hard not to be confused by the two contradictory behaviors.

At present, the Special Affairs Bureau's investigations in related areas have not yielded any results.

Yan Jing pursed her lips, but she was thinking of another possibility.

The Bureau of Special Affairs considers relevant clues based on the premise that the worm nest has been destroyed, but what if there are other worm swarms?
Who can guarantee that the one that created the swarm of strange birds is the destroyed insect nest?

"In addition, we also found a very special catalyst or energy crystal in the cultured eggs attached to the female worm and the nest. Although we haven't found a way to extract it yet, it is certain that it can Complete the transformation and strengthening of organisms in a short period of time."

An Ling answered from the side. This catalyzer was obviously the main reason why the female worm could produce a large number of worms in a short period of time.

Before the armed helicopter completed the first round of salvo, those fist-sized bugs were carried out of the nest, and the viscous liquid stuffed into the cultured eggs should be this catalytic factor.

Yan Jing listened to Wu Senyan and An Ling's alternate explanations, her face remained calm, and finally added,
"The swarm has not been completely wiped out!"

"Uh, what?"

Wu Senyan was stunned for a moment, then asked.

"The ember apostle who was acting with me has a unique ability. This is what he told me. The swarm has not been wiped out. I suggest that you maintain high-intensity monitoring of the Luojiang Mountains, and even establish a special task force. It is necessary for the team to maintain regular searches!"

Although Yan Jing didn't intend to reveal anything about Mr. Lin Cannian, he didn't want the Special Affairs Bureau to usher in a second wave of attacks without knowing it.

There are only a few hours left until the start of the Multiplayer Outworld event.

Yan Jing is almost certain that the difficulty of this incident will far exceed what he has experienced before.

Under the premise that he is not sure whether he can return smoothly.

This is his kind reminder.
