Chapter 771 – Sinking Dragon Pass
Misty.
Beneath the chaotic gray sky, a thunderous roar emanated from the choppy sea as a cloud of piercing golden light rose sharply from the deep sea and flew up to the surface.
As the golden light dispersed, seven figures stepped on top of a golden longsword and floated amidst the tumbling waves.
Baili Chubby maneuvered the [Yao Guang] while surveying the surroundings:
”Seven Nights, where is that ship …… that Lieutenant Wu mentioned?”
”It should be around here.” Lin Qiye closed his eyes and his spiritual power quickly spread out, instantly covering several kilometers of the surrounding sea.
A moment later, he opened his eyes suspiciously.
”No? How could this be ……”
”The spot where we disembarked from the ship before, it’s over there.” Caran looked around and pointed in a direction.
A few people followed her finger to look, and there was nothing more than an endless sea.
”Perhaps the ‘mystery’ from the deep sea launched an attack and took that ship away or destroyed it.” An Qingyu guessed.
Lin Qiye nodded thoughtfully as he stretched out his hand and gently stroked it in the void, and endless clouds of qi coalesced out of nothingness and tumbled out underneath everyone’s feet.
”Without a boat, we’ll have to fly back on our own.” Lin Qiye turned back to the crowd, “Do any of you know the route back to where we should go?”
”I know the general direction.” Jia Lan said, “Although it’s not necessarily the same as that disembarkation point designated by Vice Team Wu, it’s still possible to get to the border of Da Xia.”
Baili Chubby shrugged, “It doesn’t matter, as long as we can get to Da Xia, isn’t it the same where we enter from?”
”In that case, let’s go.”
Lin Qiye urged the [Somersault Cloud] underneath his body, holding the crowd’s bodies up into the sky in a hurry, and whistled in the direction Guided by Jia Lan!
Great Xia border.
The invisible wall stood above the sea like a huge glass wall, blocking the tumbling mists from the Great Xia border.
And on the inside of this invisible wall, above the endless sea, an immense and incomparable black steel city suppressed behind the border line like a mountain, like a sea pass blocking the Great Xia from the misty wall, silently guarding the border.
If Lin Qiye and the others were here, they would definitely be greatly shocked to see this scene.
Before they left Grand Xia, this place was still a vast sea, not to mention this City of Steel, even a small foothold did not exist.
However, in two years’ time, on top of the sea at the border of Da Xia, such a magnificent Steel City was built, from the point of view of the area, this Steel City was at least as big as three Cangnan cities, such as a black pillar deeply cut into the border of Da Xia, emitting a dark aura under the sunlight.
On the outer wall of this Steel City, there is a huge line of scarlet characters engraved.
a-011-[Sinking Dragon
Here, is the Great Xia Class A War Pass, number 011, code name “Sinking Dragon Pass”.
At this moment, on top of the steel fence of the Sinking Dragon Pass, a figure wearing a dark red cloak was holding a telescope, monitoring the misty fence several kilometers away.
Suddenly, as if he had discovered something, his eyes narrowed slightly.
In the midst of the tumbling mists, the shadow of a blurry ship slowly traveled above the sea, passing through the invisible misty enclosure and entering the territory of Grand Xia, its silver-white hull haloing out a ring of light under the sunlight, and on the right side of that hull, a series of numbers were written.
”This is point 6 of ‘Sinking Dragon Pass’, a hull made in Da Xia has been spotted passing through the misty fence and is heading here.” The figure picked up the walkie-talkie and said, “The number is ……”
”Roger.” The voice on the other end of the walkie-talkie paused for a moment, seemingly checking something, “That’s right, that’s our Vigilant’s ship, permission to enter.”
”Aye.”
Buzzing rumble-!
On the surface of the choppy sea, the black steel city wall let out a loud roaring sound, and a thick and massive city gate slowly rose up, introducing the hull of the ship floating on the sea into the Sinking Dragon Pass.
After the ship entered the Sinking Dragon Pass, the gate of the city wall closed again, and the entire sea was once again plunged into dead silence.
The ship followed the artificial river until it arrived at the moorings of the Sinking Dragon Pass, and by the time it came to a stop of its own accord, three figures clad in dark red cloaks were already waiting on the shore.
”I am the former vice-captain of the Great Summer Vigilantes Squad 066, Lu Qiu, please disembark the boat to register and verify your identities.” A man took a step forward and said to the boat.
The boat floated silently on the river, no one stepped out or answered, dead silence.
Lu Qiu frowned and repeated once again, “Please get off the boat to register and verify your identity!”
There was still not the slightest movement on the boat.
Lu Qiu sensed that something was wrong, and immediately waved his hand, the other two vigilantes quickly jumped onto the deck from the shore, and began to search inside the ship.
Two minutes later, they stood on the deck with a bewildered face.
”Lu brother …… there’s no one on this ship?”
”No one?” Lu Qiu froze, he personally went on the boat to search a bit, after confirming that there was not a single silhouette in the entire boat, his face suddenly became ugly.
How did no one on this ship …… drive back to Daxia?
He bowed his head and contemplated for a moment, and spoke decisively, “This ship is not quite right, lock it into the No. 3 docking station alone, and send an expert to investigate it, Xiao Jia, you report this situation to the headquarters, it must be fast!”
”Yes!”
No one noticed that in the reflection of the water flow under the hull, a figure clad in silver robes, like a ghost, flashed into the Sinking Dragon Pass from inside the ship and disappeared.
Shangjing City.
”The ship driven by Wu Xiangnan and the others went back to Sinking Dragon Pass? There’s no one on board?”
Zuo Qing’s brows furrowed when he heard the report.
”Yes, Commander Zuo.”
In front of Zuo Qing’s desk, a young man with an inch head held a piece of information and said earnestly, “Sinking Dragon Pass has already let the experts go to investigate and study it, and after thoroughly searching the traces left behind inside the ship, they collected four different fingerprints.
One fingerprint came from Wu Xiangnan, one from Jia Lan, and there are two fingerprints whose owners cannot be confirmed ……”
”One of them, should be the fingerprints left behind by the commissioner of the Upper Evil Society, but if that’s the case …… whose fingerprints are the fourth?” Zuo Qing pondered for a moment, “Are there any traces of ‘mysterious’ activities on the ship?”
”Not really.” The inch-headed young man paused and said, “Commander Zuo, could it be that someone accidentally triggered the ship’s autopilot system and left? That’s why that ship followed the trajectory we predetermined long ago and returned to the Sinking Dragon Pass?”
Zuo Qing’s knuckles lightly knocked on the desktop, his eyes slightly narrowed, “Mo Yu, remember, we are the decision makers of the Night Watch, no matter what kind of situation we are facing, we have to prepare for the worst in advance ……
Let’s do it this way, let Guan in make a trip to Sinking Dragon Pass to see what’s going on.”
