Chapter 050: Project Cicada has not failed yet
"I am Jiang Bai, I am performing mission 002. On the twenty-fourth day after waking up, I failed to restore contact with the organization.
In the past month, I have successfully awakened the human sequence ability [Cun Zhi] and the earth sequence ability [Deception], and upgraded the abilities of these two systems to high-level superpowers, waiting to hit the palace master.
Currently, he has refined 16 alien bones and has 37,000 Qi points in his body. He carries four secret treasures with him, [Noon Time], [Trickster's Mirror], [Ghost Flame Cloak], and [Green Blood-Drinking Sword].
Today is the day when the entrance to the Silver Sand Secret Tomb opens. I am hesitating whether to enter the Silver Sand Secret Tomb to explore.
It all happened by coincidence.
Awakening, a fringe area without the threat of powerful enemies, Silver Sand Base is like a novice village to me, with various designs behind all coincidences.
Either I am too suspicious, or the people behind the scenes are clever but not clever enough.
No matter which one it is, Silver Sand Secret Tomb looks like a trap, and even the entire Silver Sand Base looks like a trap, just like putting flowers in a greenhouse, paralyzing them little by little, until they are fatal, the ones in the shadows Existence shows its fangs.
Staying here, everything seems to be going smoothly, but in fact, murderous intent lurks.
I can't find a reason to venture into the Secret Tomb of Silver Sands.
At 9 o'clock tonight, the entrance to the secret tomb will be opened. I will take people out of Yinsha Base. The process of leaving may not be safe. Nangong Xin, Shan Hongyi, and Cheese are at risk of death..."
Listening to Jiang Bai's words, a question mark slowly appeared above Shan Hongyi's head.
What?
Why are you dying?
Jiang Bai ignored Shan Hongyi's reaction and said in a deep voice,
"Mission 002 is still in progress."
After saying that, he pressed the button and the red light of the recorder disappeared.
Jiang Bai raised his head and asked,
"Director, how are things being packed?"
"It's all packed."
The director looked through the dictionary to make sure he had not missed any research material.
As for other stuff in the institute...
Oh, there's nothing else in the institute.
They are so poor that they can't even pay the electricity bill. How can they have valuable instruments?
"Okay, I ordered two cars. Cheese will drive one and I will drive one. Nangong Xiaoxin is moving supplies..."
Jiang Bai took out the map and analyzed,
"We're heading southeast."
The director asked, "There are three survival bases in the southeast. Which one are you going to?"
"Looking back on the road, although the wilderness has become dangerous, it is for ordinary people. We can survive in the wilderness for a while. After I have the ability to protect myself, it may be a better choice to enter the survival base."
Jiang Bai rubbed his cheeks and sighed tiredly,
"The secret grave is certainly dangerous, but people are even more dangerous."
He has a mission that he must live on.
The Yinsha Base is about to be in chaos. Whether it is for Jiang Bai's own safety or for the sake of the Ninth Research Institute, evacuating at this time is the wisest choice.
The director nodded, turned and left, helping Nangong carefully carry the daily supplies.
Shan Hongyi asked timidly, "Do you really want to leave?"
Jiang Bai nodded, "It's more dangerous to stay."
Making this decision was not easy for Jiang Bai.
"That..."
Shan Hongyi was lying on the table, listless, her eyebrows twisted like loaches.
She wanted to ask if her life was really in danger, and she also wanted to ask the people at Yinsha Base what to do, and the Governor of Yinsha...
She always had many questions, and every time she asked them, Brother Jiang Bai would answer them.
Of course, Jiang Bai may not necessarily tell the truth, and Shan Hongyi does not believe everything.
She hesitated for a long time and asked the question she wanted to ask the most.
"Will we come back?"
Jiang Bai was silent for a moment and nodded, "Yes."
However, he didn't know whether the Silver Sands Base would still exist when he came back.
The evacuation process was as orderly as Jiang Bai planned.
But everyone looked downcast as if they had lost a battle.
They originally thought that this storm was coming, and Jiang Bai would show off his skills, killing all parties in the storm, arrogant and horizontal, and settling everything...
Who would have thought that at the last moment, Jiang Bai would announce the real plan to everyone - to evacuate.
It was like a punch that had been stored for a long time and hit the air, which was inevitably a bit frustrating.
Of course, there are exceptions among these people, and the director seems particularly calm.
When no one was around, the director came to Jiang Bai and spoke bluntly,
"Sometimes it takes more courage to make the decision to retreat."
After listening to the director's words, Jiang Bai lay on the recliner and looked at the sky without saying anything.
Soon, everything was loaded onto the car and everything was ready.
Everyone had a simple meal and prepared to set off.
An unexpected guest arrives.
"Boss Jiang."
A familiar voice sounded, and a wealthy businessman appeared next to the car and greeted Jiang Bai and others enthusiastically.
"This is?"
Jiang Bai seemed to have expected that he would come, and without changing his expression, he said casually, "It's too stuffy at home, let's go out and get some fresh air."
Shan Hongyi hid behind Xue Lang and looked at the wealthy businessman.
Although his clothes and appearance were exactly the same as Yin Chenfei's, the person in front of him always gave Shan Hongyi a different feeling.
Silver morning sand?
Lord Governor?
What is he here for?
Now that you're here, why are you pretending to be the Lieutenant Governor?
There are so many questions crammed into this little head that I can’t even ask them.
Shan Hongyi hid behind Xue Lang, observing the situation in the field without saying a word.
After a brief exchange of greetings, the wealthy businessman suggested, "You still have time now, why don't you take a walk with me and chat?"
Jiang Bai nodded, "Respect is worse than obeying orders."
The two just left the convoy and disappeared from everyone's sight.
Just as Yin Chensha said, they were really walking and chatting.
Walking on a remote and deserted path, Yin Chensha spoke first,
"Jiang Bai, do you believe in fate?"
Jiang Bai nodded, "I believe it when my life is good."
When life is bad?
Men are materialist warriors and don’t engage in such feudal superstition!
Yin Chensha smiled and shook his head helplessly, "Who is lucky in this world?"
As the old saying goes, it is better to be a peace dog than a person in troubled times.
This world is more chaotic than troubled times, and there is no moment of peace.
Yin Chensha added, "When we first met, I asked you three questions. In return, I have three sentences to tell you. After that, you decide whether to stay or go."
Jiang Bai thought for a while and said seriously, "The money will not be refunded."
Those three questions were exchanged for 300,000 star coins from Yin Chensha.
Now Yin Chensha returns a few words to Jiang Bai, that is his own business.
Jiang Bai is a principled person.
The money cannot be returned.
Yin Chensha didn't pay attention to these details and said the first sentence,
"I killed Dr. Tea."
Jiang Bai's expression didn't show any surprise, as if he knew it from the beginning.
There are only ten extraordinary people in Silver Sand City, and they can be counted on one hand.
There are less than five people who can kill Dr. Tea like a dog.
No more than three people dare to anger Yi Jin.
There is only one person who can kill Dr. Tea without leaving any trace.
Silver morning sand.
Based on Yi Jin's reaction afterwards, it was not difficult for Jiang Bai to guess the truth.
Yi Jin has never made a move against Jiang Bai. In addition to not being able to figure out Jiang Bai's trump card, the most important point is that he knows that the governor killed his own people, so he suspects that Jiang Bai is a foreign aid invited by the governor.
Yin Chensha said the second sentence,
"The Cicada Plan has not failed yet."
rustle--
A gun was pointed at the back of Yin Chensha's head.
A gun appeared in Jiang Bai's hand.
Jiang Bai's tone was extremely cold, "You have one sentence left."
Project Cicada was the top secret 1,200 years ago. Jiang Bai did not reveal any details after he woke up. Even the director only knew the mission code number 002 and did not know about Project Cicada.
Yin Chensha only has one sentence left to prove his identity. Otherwise, Jiang Bai will eliminate all hidden dangers in accordance with the mission requirements, right here.
Yin Chensha did not move, looking past the muzzle of the gun to the gun barrel in Jiang Bai's other hand.
That gun felt very dangerous to him!
Yin Chensha felt a little nervous. He hadn't felt this way for seven years since he became the governor!
He even had the illusion that when it came time to fight for his life, he might not have the last laugh!
In one sentence, convince Jiang Bai and gain Jiang Bai's trust.
He pursed his lips and prepared to say the last sentence, a sentence that could gain Jiang Bai's trust. Even he himself was not sure whether this sentence could convince Jiang Bai.
If not, it would be inevitable for the two of them to fight, and it would be up to fate to decide who would die and who would live.
Yin Chensha repeated word for word,
"Among you students, I like you the most."
