Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The street lamp with black wrought ironwork casts a warm light yellow light, and the figure of the bird and bee floated through the crowd like an inconspicuous fallen leaf, leaving no ripples among the pedestrians.

    She came to a shop at the end of the block. Outside the shop hung the "Three Towers" emblem that foreign businessmen must hang when they open a shop in Violet. In the display window, you can see a variety of novel groceries from across the strait.  , there is a wooden sign hanging on the door of the shop with the words "Suspension of Business" written on it.

    Quefei¡¯s eyes stayed on the wooden sign that read ¡°Closed for Business¡± for a second, and then he pushed the door open and entered.

    The store was empty. Due to the suspension of business, there was not a single customer inside. There was only a young man in a dark coat sitting behind the counter collecting groceries.  Hearing the noise coming from the door, the young man raised his head. When he found out it was a bee, he seemed relieved and nodded slightly in greeting.

    "Why did the sign saying "Closure of Business" suddenly go up at this time?" Quefeng quickly came to the counter and said in a low voice, "And where is the 'store manager'?"

    "The store manager went to Beicheng District," the young man said quietly and casually while paying attention to the movement near the door, "I received an order from the bureau today. The Violet Kingdom has been affected by a serious supernatural phenomenon.  All contact points have suspended their activities and are preparing to evacuate, and the store manager plans to collect as much intelligence as possible before evacuating."

    "Ready to evacuate?" A look of astonishment appeared on Bird Bee's face, "Has the situation become so serious? Then we are here"

    "It's more serious than you think. All the operators in Lenghaicheng have lost contact, and no news has been sent back." The young man wiped the shiny ornaments on the counter, his movements seemed smooth and natural, but his tone was particularly serious, "They were still there a day ago.  While sending back messages normally, there was suddenly no sound at all, not even the 'whistle' that should be sent in the most urgent situation."

    "The whistle wasn't even sent?!" Bird Bee could hardly believe what she heard. "There are well-trained operators over there, and they also carry the most advanced communication equipment. How could they just disappear so quietly?"  Connected?"

    "The most likely possibility is that the abnormal phenomenon has spread to Lenghai City, and all the local operators died before they could make any response. And in fact, it is not just our intelligence personnel who have lost contact, they have lost contact  It's the entire Lenghai City." The young man temporarily put down his work and looked up into Qingfeng's eyes. "Some ordinary Loren merchants who do business in Lenghai City have also cut off their contact with the mainland. Starting yesterday, Beigang over there  The communication station never received any magic network signals from Lenghai City.

    "This morning I also saw the Typhon spies rushing to No. 23 Xicheng Street. I suspect that they have also noticed the abnormality and started to prepare for evacuation."

    Qingfeng's eyes widened, but in just two seconds, she forced herself to calm down, and at the same time she understood Director Amber's order to evacuate - even though the evacuation order was sudden, even though "because some intelligence personnel suddenly  "Evacuate all contact points if you go missing" seemed a bit impulsive. Although it was regrettable to give up the foundation that she had managed to build here, she knew that this was a last resort.

    Anomalies are occurring. This is a large-scale change caused by incomprehensible magical power or other extraordinary forces. It is not a conventional intelligence secret war, public opinion confrontation or special infiltration. The latter is the area in which Military Intelligence agents are good at.  But the former has gone beyond the "work scope" of ordinary intelligence personnel. Such professional matters should be left to a professional team.

    In fact, when she realized that Prandel was being affected by the extraordinary phenomenon, Quefei thought that she would most likely receive an order to evacuate, but she did not expect that this day would come so early - in the recent period of time, this "  "Extraordinary Visions" have not shown any real harm, but now the situation has taken a turn for the worse.

    But even without this layer, as long as Director Amber¡¯s order is issued, Bird Bee will still choose to carry it out unconditionally - this is an iron law for all Military Intelligence Bureau operators.

    "This is no longer a front for intelligence activities. Our mission is over. The bureau chief stated in the order that the Violet Kingdom will be treated as an 'abnormal area'." The young man shook his head, his voice low.  , "But after all, this is still an independent 'kingdom' on the surface. Before it shows any infringement and hostility to the alliance, we cannot take any military action against it There will be an elite steel force  A Ranger team and two paranormal countermeasures experts came to take over our work. They are experts in investigating and countering paranormal phenomena."

    Bird Bee nodded slightly, and then said as if casually: "I'll see you on the way back."There is a factory that produces magic devices and has been exporting goods to other cities. So what will it look like now after the abnormality occurs?

    Will there be ¡°locally produced¡± magic devices in the central market?  And then because the 'rules' that caused the anomaly were unable to copy things outside the Violet system, those 'magic devices' turned into a bunch of weird empty shells?

    She told what she had imagined. The young man behind the counter thought about it seriously and nodded slowly: "It's not impossible If our guess is correct, it happened at the Matilen Wine."  The anomaly will obviously also occur in other similar things. But we are destined to have no way to verify this.

    "Except for the gang of gray elves with super mobility, no Lorenzo people have successfully built factories or anything like that in the Violet Kingdom. All the 'foreign goods' on the market are directly from Lorans via the circumcontinental route.  Since it was shipped from Lun, there is naturally no 'wrong substitution'."

    Quefeng nodded, and then she seemed to suddenly realize something. She subconsciously looked up at the mechanical clock hanging on the wall opposite, and her tone became a little nervous: "How long has the store manager been out? Is there a safety signal sent back?"  "

    "He went out six hours ago," the young man behind the counter replied, and then seemed to suddenly react, "he shouldn't have been alone for so long without sending a signalespecially when  When extraordinary phenomena have appeared in the city.¡±

    As he spoke, he took out an ordinary-looking brass case pocket watch from his pocket, pressed the button to open the watch cover, and all the hands on the seemingly normal dial were fixed at 12 o'clock.  And motionless.

    The young man's expression suddenly changed slightly. He quickly pressed the button three times. The dial of the pocket watch immediately opened with a snap, revealing the movement below, as well as the fine and complex runes and fine crystal structures around the movement. One of the small crystals  At this moment, it is emitting a faint red light, and the light flashes with an uneasy rhythm.

    This is a special communication tool for the officers of the Military Intelligence Bureau. It is the smallest communication device that can be achieved with current technology.

    In order to reduce the size and enhance security, this compact device does not have a complete Magic Network terminal function, but it can send and receive specific rhythm signals through vibration, buzzing, etc. By encoding in advance, these signals can transmit important information. At the same time  The rune array inside its movement can also be used to monitor the operating status of other operators' communication equipment.

    "'Store Manager' may be in trouble," the young man suddenly raised his head and looked at the bird with the same serious expression, "I can't track his signal response here."

    "It's also possible that we encountered an emergency and had to switch to silent mode - don't send him a signal rashly." Quefei said quickly, and then seemed to suddenly notice something, and suddenly turned back to look in the direction of the shop window.

    I don¡¯t know when, there was already a thick fog outside the window.

    Everything on the street was shrouded in thick fog. The carriages parked on the roadside, the outline of the building opposite, and even the nearby street lamp posts, everything turned into a hazy and gloomy void in the thick fog.  The shadows were blurry and unclear, only the warm light from the street lamps lit up in the fog, like sparks floating in the fog, vaguely outlining the direction of the street.

    And in this thick and strange fog, Qingfeng did not see any pedestrians.

    Of course, the thick fog will hinder people from traveling, but it is a bit weird to see no one on the road, especially because Qingfeng is 100% sure that at least two minutes ago, when the corner of her eye glanced at the window, it was a bit strange.  Seeing such heavy fog, there was an endless stream of pedestrians on the road - two minutes, just two minutes, what happened to this city?  !

    She glanced at the colleague behind the counter. The latter had already reached out from the hidden compartment on the counter and took out two sets of small melting daggers and combat magic terminals. They skillfully and quickly put on the wristband-like terminals.  He hid the dagger behind the hem of his clothes that were close-fitting and easy to access, and then cautiously walked towards the window.
