Chapter 1449 Hello, you from the future

The warship continued to move forward.

An island shrouded in fog and looming appeared in everyone's sight.

The island is not large, and on the edge of the island, traces of a large number of artificial buildings can be clearly seen.

"What is that tall building?"

Although everyone said they were not interested in the treasures left behind by the Iron-Blooded Empire, they still couldn't suppress their inner excitement when they actually discovered an island that was obviously inhabited by people.

"The style is a bit retro, looks a bit like an obelisk?"

Wang Xiao borrowed Li Zhiyong's telescope and observed the most eye-catching architecture on the edge of the island.

Because it was obscured by fog, everyone could only estimate that the building was about eight meters high and looked dark, as if it was made of metal.

"Don't you think that these buildings on the island are very artistic and full of Gothic style?"

Feiya observed the island getting closer and closer.

"Every one of us on this boat is a gangster. Are you going to talk to us about art?"

Jiang Hua couldn't laugh or cry.

Of course he understands what Gothic style is, but if he understands it, he really can't talk about it. The main reason is that he is not born with any artistic talent.

Look next to Captain Li Zhiyong, who is directing the warship to dock, and the tank standing behind him like an iron tower. These two people don't seem to understand art. If they talk about weapons and equipment, everyone can probably find something to talk about.

When Feiya talked about art at this time, she was completely talking about it.

"That obelisk-like building seems to have writings carved on it. It's a curved shape. What does it say? Do any of you recognize it?"

Wang Xiao observed the strange building with a telescope and said.

That thing was somewhat similar to a monument. As they got closer, everyone realized that it was a building made entirely of black iron. It was specially built on the edge of the island, as if to send messages to approaching ships.

"That's Gothic text, which means: Hello, you from the future!"

Feiya knew many languages ​​and took the initiative to translate the words engraved on the obelisk.

"A prophet of uncertainty?"

"What's going on? This foreigner also knows the I Ching and can do divination?"

If Li Zhiyong and others were just surprised by the words on the obelisk, Jiang Hua felt differently.

Among the whole boat, he was the only one who truly came from the future. The words engraved on the mysterious obelisk seemed to be specifically greeting him.

"I'm just wondering, how did the remnants of the Iron-Blooded Empire know that we would find this place in the future?"

The first mate next to Li Zhiyong scratched his head in confusion.

"You're stupid. This is just a pretentious statement. Just like the blind fortune teller on the bridge, the first thing he says is usually sir, you are having a bad year this year. This is all a trick to deceive people."

Li Zhiyong said angrily.

"That's right. Even if you change the ship and come here, you will still be confused when you see this sentence. Everyone is from the future."

The first mate suddenly realized, and suddenly understood the routine involved. What was engraved on the obelisk was a saying that could be applied to everyone.

"But why are they going through all this trouble? Isn't it completely unnecessary?"

Wang Xiao frowned, his eyes full of confusion.

The buildings on this island should have been built by the remnants of the Iron-Blooded Empire. Their plan was to rebuild the glory of the empire. What's the use of messing with these gods and ghosts?

"Who knows? They say the end of science is theology. Maybe the knowledge they study is too advanced and has broken through to the category of theology?"

Seeing that everyone was nervous and nervous, Li Zhiyong made a joke to liven up the atmosphere.

"You're all here, let's go up and have a look."

Jiang Hua didn't understand what the remnants of the Iron-Blooded Empire were doing, but he thought that the device that interfered with communications should be on the island.

"It's better not to go. This island looks eerie, and if I guessed correctly, the people on the abandoned warship should have gone to the island and met with misfortune."

Nefertari said with some fear.

She is a local. Here in Nile, there are too many mysterious legends about this sea area.

"There are five sets of emergency gas masks on the ship. Let's arrange people to go up and feel the situation first."

Li Zhiyong looked at the island in front of him and said.

As a soldier, he certainly cannot be frightened by some rumors, and if they want to leave this sea area and find out the secrets of the island, it seems to be the only way out.

"Hey, didn't you say that the headquarters of your Freemasonry is also a similar island? Tell us about it."

Jiang Hua turned his face sideways and looked at Feiya.

Feiya's family first dealt with the remnant forces of the Iron-Blooded Empire, and even robbed an island. Among the people on the ship, Feiya was probably the one who knew the most inside information.

"I feel that the architectural style on this island does not look like it was built by the remnants of the Iron-Blooded Empire."

Feiya frowned slightly and said with a somewhat solemn expression.

She took on her grandfather's identity and pretended to be the president of the Freemasonry. She stayed on the island as its headquarters for more than half a year and became very familiar with every plant and tree on the island.

There were many buildings on that island, built by the remnants of the Iron-Blooded Empire. They were ravines, air-raid shelters, machine gun bunkers and other military buildings that served the war, including the underground palace where she usually stayed, which was also converted from an air-raid shelter.

But on the island in front of us, there is not a single building on the island that looks like a fortification. Moreover, the tall obelisk building is a living target from a military point of view. It is too eye-catching. Anyone with a normal mind can't see it.

They don't know how to repair such a thing.

"That's right. You said that if they don't build a machine gun fort on the edge of the island, but build a few forts and build some church-like buildings, what's the point?"

Li Zhiyong also felt that the island in front of him was strange.

If we look at the situation of the remaining forces of the Iron-Blooded Empire at that time, they finally found a hidden island. If they didn't overhaul the fortifications, what were they doing with these ridiculous buildings?

"It's useless no matter how much we think about it here. We have to go up and have a look to know the truth."

Wang Xiao narrowed his eyes and said.

"In this case, Captain Wang, myself, and Director Jiang's bodyguard will go up first to get a feel for the situation, while the others are on standby on the ship."

Li Zhiyong pondered for a moment and made a decision.

He chose Wang Xiao and Tank because they were skilled with firearms and had good physical fitness, which gave them rare combat effectiveness.

"Captain, you can't take risks, it's better for me to go."

The first mate standing next to him anxiously stopped him.

"You can't go. If something unexpected happens to me, you will take over as captain and take everyone back safely."
