Chapter 311 Underground Tunnel, Infiltrated Company February 2, coast, Bincheng. Faint and dense footsteps could be heard in a narrow underground tunnel beneath a deserted dock. The bright white light from a dozen shaking flashlights illuminated the dim front. Rats were running around and bats were flapping their wings and screaming from time to time. The unconscious Gao Erzhuang was carried on the back of a ninja cultivator. Her forehead, arms and chest were filled with pieces of talisman paper that controlled her blood flow and breathing rhythm. She was in a state of the living dead, her consciousness dormant and her body unable to move. Walking in front of the team was Lao Zhang, a manager of the Northeast region of Nadutong. Holding a yellowed blueprint, he carefully analyzed the route and moved forward cautiously. This tunnel was obtained a long time ago through cooperation between their ancestors of Bihe Ren and the surrendered faction of Quan Xing. It has existed for a very long time, hundreds of years. As long as they follow the correct route, they can go down to a natural cave group. The caves inside are intricate and stretch for dozens of kilometers. It can be called a maze of death. There is dark sea water everywhere. Ordinary people can't go there at all. As extraordinary people, they have the guidance of the drawings. They only need to reach the end and solve the restrictions set by their ancestors to escape safely. "Wow!" At this moment, Lao Zhang, who was walking in front, slowly stopped. A jade pendant in his arms was vibrating slightly, flashing a faint purple light. This was a sign that a partner far away in his homeland who was ready to pick him up was delivering a message. "Stop."
Lao Zhang gave an order and more than ten ninjas waited on the spot. He took out the jade pendant and performed a secret technique, chanting an obscure spell with his eyes slightly closed. He used his mind to sense the ripples inside the jade pendant, capturing every piece of information without leaving any room for error. "Did it succeed?" A very magnetic voice faintly echoed in my ears. "We are evacuating. The journey is expected to take 5 hours, and it will take 2 hours to unseal the tunnel. The previous tunnel can still be used and is not within their territorial waters. Please arrange a ship to pick us up as soon as possible, otherwise something might happen." Lao Zhang briefly explained the evacuation plan to the owner of the jade pendant. He gave up all his identities in this country and kidnapped the company's most important equipment. If discovered, it would be an absolute death sentence. Although he acted with extreme caution, he was still very nervous at the moment. "Okay, I'll arrange for a ship to go there now. We must ensure the target's survival. As long as we bring her back, we have plenty of ways to copy her memory and control her." "Ah." After a brief conversation, the light of the jade pendant gradually dimmed. Lao Zhang put it away again and led the ninjas to continue their attack. An emergency meeting was held at the Nadutong headquarters. When the eight directors heard the report from Gao Lian, they were all frightened and broke out in cold sweats. "Er Zhuang was kidnapped by my deputy!" "He is a member of the Bihe Ninja. The situation is urgent. I have dispatched all the staff that can be deployed in the jurisdiction to search for him." "Six employees responsible for protecting Erzhuang died, and three are still being rescued. Lao Zhang's rank is just below mine in our department, and he also forged my orders. Those employees could not have anticipated this." "what?!" Zhao Fangxu's face looked extremely ugly. If Er Zhuang's memory and abilities were taken away by Bihe Ren, all the secrets in the company's database would be exposed. At this moment, his chest ached slightly and his head hurt badly. Before Zhao Fangxu could express his opinion, a director slammed the table and shouted coldly: "Investigate!!!" "No matter what the cost, you must find out the truth and bring the person back alive." "The current coastal defense is staffed by us and other sects. As long as they are still in the territory, they can't leave." Regarding his idea, Liang Dong, who transferred from another department and has been working here for more than half a year, was not optimistic. Instead, he pointed out: "What if they have their own tunnels?"
"We can sneak across the sea, or go deep into the mainland and go to the borders of various places. In those uninhabited areas, we can't search every corner thoroughly. The most worrying thing is..." "They don't even have to leave the mainland. As long as they kill Er Zhuang, it will be an irreparable loss for us. The only question we have to consider now is whether they have a way to extract Er Zhuang's memory." The directors present felt extremely heavy-hearted when they heard this cruel and cold fact. "As for you, Gao Lian, your dereliction of duty will be dealt with later." "Excuse me, fellow directors, but before Lao Cheng and I came, the company you managed was infiltrated to this extent. Don't you find it creepy?" "After seven or eight years, you will retire. Even if his deputy Gao Lian has no chance of becoming the new director, he will most likely become the head of the Northeast region. A remnant of a ruthless person will become a senior executive of the company?! You also know clearly what this means. In this matter, you really have an unshirkable responsibility." Director Liang's tone was extremely displeased. He didn't give anyone face and directly scolded the six directors. He was originally a front-line combat personnel in other departments and acted ruthlessly. Since he came to the company half a year ago, he has been very dissatisfied with some of the directors' perfunctory and stability-maintaining practices. In his expectation, such management would have hidden dangers sooner or later, but he did not expect that when the thunder exploded, it would be so serious. It was simply playing with fire next to a powder keg. "Hey, brother Liang, calm down." "The most urgent task is to find Er Zhuang. The hidden danger you mentioned is also a problem we need to deal with. Afterwards, all the senior executives of the company will be thoroughly investigated, and we will try our best to find out if there are any traitors or ghosts." Huang Boren saw that the situation was about to get out of control, so he hurried to calm Mr. Liang down. "It's been nearly six hours since the incident. The Hikari Ninjas did a good job of concealing their presence. So far, no useful information has been received. No suspicious vehicles have been found along the traffic routes of the various cities. They are probably still hiding in the northeast." "Send as many people from each district as possible to search there. If we really can't save it, this matter is beyond our ability to handle. The company's decades of hard work will be destroyed in one day." Director Cheng said helplessly that he had no idea where the other party was hiding. The mastermind of the kidnapping, as one of the company's employees, was very familiar with the company's operations and efficiency. Under such circumstances, he still dared to take direct action, which showed that he had a very high probability of success. Otherwise, he should have killed Er Zhuang directly at the company's base. Just when everyone was at a loss, a director wearing glasses looked at the fat man next to him and proposed a plan that he thought was feasible: "Director Zhao, Gao Lian, didn't you have dealings with the Trinity School last year?" "Er Zhuang's body was under urgent need of reconstruction. Why don't you try to contact him? It's better than just sitting there and waiting for death. Maybe there is a solution." As soon as she finished speaking, she was strongly opposed by Director Su. She frowned and rejected it: "How can they be sure of something we are not sure of? Besides, it would be ridiculous if this were to get out." Fatty Zhao thought for a moment and then explained: "If you don't try, you definitely won't have a chance. Even if there's a one in a thousand or one in ten thousand chance of success, it's worth it. Xiao Su, please don't be prejudiced against others." "I'll contact you now." "Director Bi, Director Huang, please discuss and arrange for personnel from other jurisdictions to go to the Northeast first." afternoon. The mountain breeze was cool and the sun was not hot. On the fourth floor of the Sutra Library of Trinity Gate, Jiang Mo sat on the ground with a tablet in his hand. He logged into the database of the dark web and browsed the data of extraordinary creatures in the United States. He had basically finished reading the documents about demons, and what he was reading now were some supernatural legends in the United States, including those special creatures wandering around towns, including skeletons that could speak, a tide of rats that seemed to have developed intelligence, and even giant jellyfish floating in the sky over the city. The tablet showed snippets of text descriptions and detailed, clear photos. These were not blurry, artificially forged images, but real scenes captured by eyewitnesses. Jiang Mo read page by page. The dark web worker who often greeted him did not come to bother him today. He just hid behind the network, silently scanning his reading traces, trying to understand why he was looking up this information. About half an hour later, a familiar voice sounded behind him, bringing Jiang Mo's thoughts back to the real world. "Uncle Master, Lu Ci wants to discuss something with you. It's about a demon sword."
"Demon sword?" Jiang Mo turned his head and gestured for Lu Jin to continue. "Yes. It is a sword that Bihe Shinobi regards as an inheritance. It contains the vengeful spirit of the sword maker and the ghosts of many dead people killed by it. Lu Ci's brother is also trapped inside and cannot be freed, so he begs you to help destroy the demon sword." "." Jiang Mo put down the tablet. Although he didn't have a good impression of the Lu family, if he remembered correctly, the young man seemed to have died in a battle with a Japanese alien and ended up in such a half-human, half-ghost end. Then, Lu Jin recounted what had happened in the past two days, including Bihe Shinobu's attack on the company plane, Lu Ci's attempt to seize the sword, and the entire process of the Ishikawa family's failed sword test. "Can't be destroyed without a swordsman?" Jiang Mo became interested. A golden flame appeared on his fingertips and the Ancient Dao True Fire jumped with excitement. "After all, a vengeful spirit is just a special kind of spiritual anomaly. Is Lu Ci outside the mountain? Bring him over." "Yes, please wait a moment." Lu Jin nodded. He stepped back for a few minutes and then took Lu Ci to the fourth floor. "Master Jiang, how are you? Nice to meet you." After not seeing each other for half a year, when they met again, Lu Ci spoke respectfully. He carried the sword case on his back and bowed to Jiang Mo, his eyes full of admiration and excitement. In this era, there are no so-called immortals or gods, no so-called ascension, there is only Chen Qing Xuan Zun who stands at the top of the world and overlooks the world. Before he entered the realm of the Supreme Grandmaster, what Lu Ci could sense from Jiang Mo was an aura as high as the Five Mountains and as vast as the ocean; Now that he has become a supreme master, the difference between him and Jiang Mo is like that between a firefly and the bright moon.
