As soon as the discipline scholar lost his temper, he slapped the table and said directly without giving the church face: "What's wrong with our opposition? We have been investigating and studying at the Beidou base for some time, and we have submitted several reports during this time. Here, we It has absolute authority.”

"If we make a proposal to Fortress, do you think Fortress will not withdraw the application?"

At this time, except for Mu Qing, several other church members could not hold their breath.

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of hand, Shen Mozhu and Mu Qing both stood up and advised the people on both sides to exercise restraint.

Kong Zhang also stood up and said: "Xiao Ji, don't be impulsive. If you have something to say, say it properly."

The old gentleman seemed to still have a certain prestige in the academic world. Ji Xin, whose face turned red, snorted before sitting down after hearing his words.

After a storm, it stopped.

After the people on both sides calmed down, Shen Mozhu smiled bitterly and said: "Everyone in the church, you have actually misunderstood. Scholar Ji has absolutely no ill intentions. The reason why he said that is actually for your own good."

The church member who spoke out before sneered: "Oh, then we have to listen to what Commander Shen has to say."

His words were like venting his anger on Shen Mozhu. It was rare that Shen Mozhu had such a good temper that he didn't get angry and his face was gentle.

But Mu Qing said in a deep voice: "Priest Chen, pay attention to your words."

The expression on Priest Chen's face changed slightly, he nodded, and said apologetically to Shen Mozhu: "I'm sorry, please don't blame me, Commander Shen."

Shen Mozhu smiled and waved his hands, indicating that he wouldn't care.

Mu Qing then asked: "Commander Shen, fellow scholars, I wonder what the difficulties are that make you object to our entering the base for research?"

Shen Mozhu looked at Kong Zhang, and after the two exchanged glances, Shen Mozhu coughed lightly: "It's like this. Recently, a series of bloody and strange events have occurred in the Beidou Base. Currently, that cracked hall And the surrounding area has been closed by us."

This time Tianyang was stunned for a moment.

By the end of the family competition, the old gangsters in the Beidou base should have been almost cleared away. Even if there are still fish that have slipped through the net, it stands to reason that they will never reach the level where the area needs to be closed.

Mu Qing asked him the doubts in his heart: "What is so serious that the surrounding area needs to be closed."

Shen Mozhu spread his hands and said: "If everyone has finished their meal, here are some pictures for your reference."

It seems that these pictures will seriously affect appetite... Tianyang had this little thought in his mind.

At this point in the banquet, everyone had basically eaten and drank enough. After hearing what Shen Mozhu said, they all left the table to indicate that they had finished their meals.

Shen Mozhu asked people to take away the tableware and bring tea, and then took out a foldable electronic board. After opening it, he clicked on the screen to start an electronic interface.

After a while, six curved light screens appeared above the hall, facing every corner of the hall to ensure that everyone could see clearly.

As soon as the screen flashed, pictures appeared one after another. The pictures played slowly enough for people to see the details clearly.

For example, in the first picture, Tianyang recognized that it was the scene of the cracked hall, and he also saw those strange worshipers. At the same time, the young man noticed that the lighting equipment around the hall was damaged. Moreover, there were ten people in the hall. Several corpses.

The second picture is a close-up of one of the corpses. From the picture, you can see that the corpse died in a strange way. It can barely be identified that it is a man. But his flesh and blood is missing. The corpse in the picture It looks like a mummy.

The dry skin stuck to the frame, the hair stood up, and the eye sockets were sunken.

The flesh and blood in the corpse were withered, and it looked like it had been eaten up by something.

Connecting several pictures is the same.

There was a soft cry in the hall.

Mu Qing and several priests were whispering to each other and pointing at the pictures. They were discussing something heatedly but deliberately lowered their voices.

Han Shu put down his cup: "Uncle Shen, who are these people?"

Shen Mozhu glanced at Sun Zhang and sighed: "They are from the scholar group. The deceased are basically the assistants and students of the scholars. This was an accident that happened two weeks ago. At that time, Mr. Kong and others went back to rest first, and only these students and assistants Stay in the hall and continue sampling.”

"Since the black civilians in the base have basically been cleared away, we were a little negligent and did not leave enough guards outside the hall. In addition, the scholar group usually stays in the hall for seven or eight hours. , so we didn’t pay attention.”

"It wasn't until eight hours later that Mr. Kong said he couldn't contact his students that we sent people into the hall. It turned out that all the people in the hall were dead. And the death was strange. Their flesh and blood were gone, leaving only Under the skin and skeleton.”

"No drop of blood could be found at the scene, only the lighting was damaged and traces of the deceased's struggle before death."

Mu Qing glanced in the direction of the scholars and said calmly: "It seems that there is more than one such incident?"

Shen Mozhu nodded and said: "Yes, after the incident, we conducted a thorough investigation of the hall, but unfortunately nothing was found. On the third day, our investigation team in the hall was also attacked, and this time we photographed something ..."

On the curved light screen, the picture changed. What appeared on the light screen was no longer a picture, but a video.

At the beginning of the video, it was still a scene in the cracked hall. Base personnel could be seen busy, and suddenly all the lights in the screen disappeared. Then exclamations and screams rang out. After nearly a minute of chaos, a light came from the entrance. light up.

Then beams of light swept around, and it was not difficult to see in the light that the investigators in the hall died tragically on the spot. Some of them were mummified in the same way as the previous group of scholars. Others seemed to have been killed by wild beasts. After the attack, the body was torn into pieces, and bones, skin, flesh, internal organs and body "parts" were scattered all over the floor.

At the end of the video, it freezes on a paw print imprinted in the blood and mud.

"In this attack, we lost 15 investigators, including 6 civilians and two ascendants."

Shen Mozhu continued to add: "Then in the next week, accidents like this happened one after another and spread to areas outside the hall. I personally went to the scene to investigate, but I didn't find even a single clue."

"We used a variety of monitoring equipment, but unfortunately, we still found nothing in the end." Kong Zhang sighed, "I have been studying the reverse world for more than 50 years, and I have never seen anything like this. That's why Ji Xin just advised you. Don't go in."

Hearing this, Mu Qing glanced at Priest Chen.

The man stood up immediately, bowed slightly to Ji Xin and said, "I apologize for what I said just now, Mr. Ji, I misunderstood you." Ji Xing shook his head: "Forget it, I also have things I didn't do well."

Seeing that the two sides had settled their differences, Shen Mozhu smiled and said: "I just compiled this into a report yesterday and submitted it, waiting for the fortress to come up with a solution. For the time being, I can only seal off the area around the cracked hall to avoid further casualties."

"It's a pity that the fortress didn't inform you of your intention. If I knew that you wanted to enter the hall, I would have stopped you. Now, I can only let you go in vain."

Shen Mozhu naturally wanted the church to go back home. He didn't want Mu Qing to go back home, but he smiled and said, "I won't leave in vain. If such a thing happened, we should enter the hall to investigate."

Ji Xin's expression changed, and he stood up and said, "Didn't you hear clearly? Now we can't even understand how people die, and you still want to go in?"

Shen Mozhu also had a headache: "Everyone, I am not shirking my responsibility. If you insist on entering the hall, it will be difficult for me to guarantee your safety."

Mu Qing looked towards Han Shu: "Captain Han Shu and his team members are naturally responsible for our safety, right?"

Han Shu said seriously: "Priest Mu Qing, normally we will protect everyone's safety. But in the current situation of Beidou Base, I think it is more appropriate to listen to Commander Shen's advice."

"If you insist on entering, then I can only apply to the superiors to stop the mission. I will never risk my team members."

Mu Qing smiled slightly and said, "Then if I tell Captain Han how these people died, what they were killed by, and how to deal with these things, can Captain Han reconsider the escort mission?"

Shen Mozhu called out softly: "Priest Mu Qing, are you telling me that you know what killed these people?"

Ji Xin shouted: "This is impossible. We even installed life monitors at the accident site. But except for the deceased, no other signs of life activity were found."

Mu Qing was calm and composed: "That's because the life forms of these things are slightly different from us and the people of darkness. But strictly speaking, they are also a kind of people of darkness."

"It's just that these black people live in the cracks."

Shen Mozhu shook his head: "The things in the crack hall have been cleaned up by Mr. Yunyuan. I can guarantee that there are no crack creatures in that hall."

Mu Qing said firmly: "Yes, they are still in the hall, but they have not been discovered yet. Commander Shen, the gap in the space is definitely not as simple as you have seen."

Tianyang couldn't help but glance at the female priest a few more times. From this point of view, the church must have more information about the gap.

Shen Mozhu frowned and then said: "Okay, then Priest Mu Qing, please tell me what is it that killed so many people."

Mu Qing nodded: "The things that kill people are some people of darkness called [Yama]. They live in the gap between spaces. These things are invisible, undetectable, and unheard in the darkness."

"So there is almost no way to observe them in the dark. I don't know if you have noticed, whether it is the previous pictures or the video just now, the lighting equipment at the scene shows signs of damage."
