Chapter 530 All the way south

Looking at Duanmuhuai in front of him, the man's hair stood on end. Under the moonlight outside, this ferocious face looked like an indescribable beast, showing its fangs, trying to tear him to pieces.

Not only that, for a man, just being enveloped by this sight, he feels that his courage, will, and even the belief that he is even willing to die for it all the time seem to start to collapse at a completely unimaginable speed, just like a gust of wind The blowing sand, or the thawing snow under the sun, almost just for a moment, he felt that everything he had insisted on since birth until now was falling apart under the other party's gaze!

At this moment, the man stared at Duanmu Huai, his eyes suddenly widened!

"Yes, it's you!"

"oh?"

Hearing the man's words, Duanmu Huai frowned.

"you know me?"

"Of course...you have destroyed the plan of the hut twice in a row...I didn't expect that such a secret plan would be known to you!"

Looking at Duanmu Huai, the man almost seemed to be insane.

"How is this possible? This is the most secret plan, why do you know? Who leaked the secret?!"

Um?

Seeing the man's expression, Duanmuhuai was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted immediately. Obviously, judging from the man's words, the two actions of the Silver Twilight Cabin that he met on the train and the airship were actually part of a big plan. And the Dark City right now seems to be the core of this big plan?

And he broke the plan of the Silver Twilight Cabin twice in a row, so they mistakenly thought that they did it on purpose after knowing everything?

But Duanmu Huai knew that all of this was just a coincidence...well, a coincidence...it didn't seem right either.

Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai glanced at his pocket silently, the rabbit inside was curling up in a ball and sticking his head out to look outside curiously.

It seems that his lucky bunny is really strong.

Duanmuhuai did not expect that the case in Wudu would be linked to the case on the train and the airship.

But now...

"This has nothing to do with you."

Duanmu Huai snorted coldly, stretched out his hand, strangled the man by the throat, and lifted him up.

"You just need to answer my question. What are you doing all this for?"

"...You, you obviously already know..."

"Of course, that's why I raised this question. You should understand that it's useless to tell lies in front of me."

This is naturally a lie, Duanmuhuai has no idea what Yinmu Cabin wants to do, but for him, it is not too difficult to cheat. Although Duanmuhuai does not have the charisma and speech skills of many players, naturally he cannot use persuasion or persuasion, but in terms of deterrence...he is a professional.

"Woo... ah..."

With Duanmuhuai's fingers exerting a little force, the man only felt that his throat began to be gradually compressed. He was like a shriveled balloon, and the remaining air was spit out from his lungs. Coupled with Duanmu Huai's ferocious eyes that seemed to eat him alive, the man at this moment has already collapsed and completely lost his mind.

"The world, the world will be completely changed... We will reshape the world, the great gods are coming, the torch of the gate of Tartar has been lit..."

"speak English."

"So, all of this is part of the plan. We know that the great ancient gods are wandering the void, so we want to guide them into our world and change everything completely. The Gate of Tartar is just the beginning. Miss Charlotte has come to the door and has become a guide holding a torch. The next thing we have to do is to lift the seal and open the door... The Dark City is just one of them. All over the world, our compatriots They are all fighting for this great ideal...... Ah......!!!"

However, before the man could finish speaking, Duanmu Huai's fingers exerted a slight force, and soon he screamed again.

"That is to say, what I encountered a few times before is also part of your plan?"

"No, that's right... Opening the cross-latitude passage leading to the black cave, calling for the favor of the God of Many Faces, and lifting the seal of the Dark City... are all part of the plan..."

"But I'm curious."

Duanmuhuai stared at the man, and asked lightly.

"According to Professor Capek, Miss Charlotte has reached the Tartar Gate, so why are you doing these stupid things here?"

"Miss Charlotte...she...she is special, and what she desires is different from ours. When she arrives at the gate of Tartar, she holds a torch and can guide the gods to descend. However, if Without sealed contact, the Tartar Gate will not open... so we are going to help her..."

"How many of you are there, and where are you all?"

“…………………………”

Facing Duanmuhuai's inquiry, the man chose to remain silent for the first time, while Duanmuhuai laughed, then reached out, grabbed the man's arm, and lifted it in front of the man like pulling the arm of a toy villain. Shake a bit.

"See? This is your arm."

While speaking, Duanmuhuai stretched out his finger, pressed it on the man's forearm, and then exerted a sudden force.

"Crack!!!!"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

The next moment, the man's forearm broke like a toy man's arm that was bent in the opposite direction, and then Duanmuhuai grabbed his broken and twisted arm with his backhand, pulled hard, and directly pulled the man's forearm from him. Pulled off his arm!

"Now it's not."

Duanmuhuai threw away the amputated arm in his hand, and stared at the man coldly. At this moment, the man's face was pale with pain, his legs were instinctively struggling, trembling, kicking the floor desperately, as if this could relieve some of his own pain. like pain. But under Duanmuhuai's fearful light, the man couldn't even pass out, he could only endure the pain that almost completely collapsed his sanity.

"Answer me, how many of you are there? Where are they all?"

"No, no more! There are only four of us left here! Capek and Loret have failed, Charlotte has reached the gate of Tartar, and I am the last of the Capek Research Society staying here ! As for where the other guests of the hut have gone... I don't know! I really don't know... Ahhhhhh!!!"

However, before the man finished speaking, Duanmu Huai kicked him directly on the knee, immediately smashing the knee joint of the man's left leg, and then his twisted calf was kicked by Duanmu Huai. Stepping on it, it was torn off from the thigh—like tearing a roasted leg of lamb.

"My patience is limited."

"South, South Pole! They went to the South Pole!"

At this moment, the man finally couldn't help shouting.

"That's all I know. They went to the Antarctic, saying that they wanted to open the gate of Tartar from there... They said that there was a mysterious ancient civilization there a long time ago. Among their remains, there is a real connection to the present world." Gate of Tartar! I really only know this, as for where they went to Antarctica, I really don’t know! I don’t know... woo..."

Duanmu Huai was not in the mood to listen to the man's entreaties, and exerted a little force with his fingers again to silence the man's voice.

"... By the way, the last question, how did you recognize me?"

"...The guests in the hut know that there is a man with a bald head, a ferocious face, and a monster's height who is blocking me..."

"Click."

This time, before the man finished speaking, Duanmuhuai grabbed his head suddenly, twisted it like twisting a bottle cap, and then directly twisted the man's head from his neck, and the man's voice, It also came to an abrupt end.

Sure enough, it's a cult organization, talking nonsense, what's the ferocious face, it's your turn to talk about it?

Although the man didn't say where they went to Antarctica in the end, Duanmuhuai knew it very well.

In fact, after the man uttered the word "Antarctica," he knew where to look for those damned cultists.

It was a sleeping city in the mountains and the plateau south of the Ross Sea, under the ice covered with severe cold and snow.

Once the great beings on this planet, the old rulers and their minions slept.

It is also a holy place for players to punch cards.

However, compared to other places, going to Antarctica is obviously more troublesome and more dangerous.

This was evident when Mary learned that Duanmuhuai was going to the South Pole.

"Mr. Duanmu, are you really going to Antarctica?"

"For now, that's the only way to go."

Duanmuhuai nodded. He was not worried that the man was lying. After all, in the system, Duanmuhuai could clearly see that the man's SAN value had been directly broken by himself, and he had completely entered a state of madness and out of control. There was no way he could keep a secret.

"Me, can I go too?"

"You want to go?"

"Yes, because Mr. Duanmu, didn't you say that the Gate of Tartar is in the South Pole? Maybe... I wonder if I will meet Xia Li there..."

"It's not easy to go to Antarctica, can you get permission?"

"this……………"

Hearing Duanmuhuai's inquiry, Mary, who was extremely excited, suddenly fell silent. As Duanmuhuai said, not everyone can go to Antarctica casually. Not to mention that she is still a student, so she is not qualified to go to Antarctica at all, unless...

"I remember, you are a student of the Department of History, right?"

"Yes."

Although I don't know why Duanmuhuai suddenly raised this question, Mary nodded.

"Will the Department of History have similar excavation and collection activities?"

"This...of course there will be."

Mary nodded again. As Duanmuhuai said, the Department of History of the Royal Master's College often goes out to investigate relics and cultural relics. In fact, some students have followed them. It's just that those are big cows who have participated in the research meeting, and a little transparent like Mary doesn't have similar qualifications and opportunities.

"That's fine."

Duanmu Huai snapped his fingers.

"give it to me."

“………………???”

Of course Duanmuhuai has no connections, but he doesn't need it either, after all he still has the foundation!

After discussing with Mary, Duanmu Huai went back to the room, logged on to the foundation's website, and asked them to check whether the Royal Master's College had a plan to conduct scientific research in Antarctica.

Naturally, there is no need to say much about the intelligence strength of the foundation. It didn't take long for Duanmuhuai to receive a reply. According to the information investigated by the foundation, the Royal Master's College does have a plan to go to Antarctica for geological surveys, but as I said before, not everyone can go to Antarctica. Not to mention the time, the cost is also astronomical. For an institution directly under the royal family like the Royal Master's College, it is obviously... impossible to expect them to spend such a large sum of money to sponsor a group of people to dig stones in Antarctica.

But fortunately, this kind of pure public welfare research investigation itself is not difficult to pass the review, the only problem is money.

As long as someone pays, then there is no problem.

like now.

"Thank you very much for your support, Mr. Duanmuhuai."

Professor Palmer from the Geology Department of the Royal Master's College blushed and held Duanmu Huai's hand, shaking it up and down desperately. This professor was in his early fifties, and unlike other teachers, he seemed to be exposed to the weather, and his bronze-colored skin showed that he was a person who had been traveling all year round. Of course, the professor himself is also a very famous person, and even won the Royal Medal, but it's a pity... the medal can't be exchanged for him to go to Antarctica.

But Duanmuhuai can.

"I have always wanted to go to Antarctica to explore and investigate the geological formations there. Unfortunately, my wish has not been fulfilled... I have never been able to make the trip...Thanks to your funding..."

"There is no need to say more polite words, Professor Palmer."

Duanmu Huai waved his hand, interrupting the compliment.

"Actually, I only have two requirements. If you can satisfy me, then I can fully fund your scientific research plan."

"any request?"

"First request."

While speaking, Duanmuhuai stretched out his finger.

"I've never been to Antarctica, so I also want to go together to see the scenery of Antarctica, is it okay?"

"Of course, I can add your name to the list of the scientific expedition team...but I didn't expect you to go in person..."

"There's nothing wrong with going out for a walk. As for the second question... I hope you add someone."

"Add someone?"

"That's right."

Facing Palmer's puzzled gaze, Duanmuhuai smiled slightly.

"Her name is Mary Clarissa Christie. She is a second-year student in the History Department of the Royal Master's College. She has also been looking forward to going to Antarctica. If you can invite her to join your scientific expedition team, I will be very grateful."

"this……………"

I have to say that facing Duanmuhuai's request, Palmer was really stunned for a moment. He had heard the name of the student Mary, and he was indeed very smart, and his grades were quite good, but he was not the teacher of the other party. , so I didn't pay much attention to it.

Generally speaking, this kind of opportunity is definitely for Palmer to let the students of his own research club take advantage of it, and it is impossible for Mary, an outside student, to get the chance.

But this is the request of the sponsor... After all, why did this gentleman make such a request?

Thinking of this, Professor Palmer seemed to think of something, and suddenly realized.

Could it be that Mary Clarissa is this man's lover?

This kind of thing is actually not uncommon. Of course, generally speaking, as a professor, Palmer doesn't think much about this kind of behavior. It's just that there are people who are willing to fund their own scientific research projects for their lover...

"no problem."

Soon, Palmer smiled and nodded.

"I have also taught Mary Clarissa. She is indeed a bright student. It just so happens that if she is willing, I would also like to invite her to join my research club."

Although Professor Palmer didn't know whether the two were planning to go to Antarctica for a honeymoon trip or something, he didn't care.

As long as you have enough money to fund your research projects, nothing else matters!
