Chapter 1078 Lost (two chapters in one)
On the mysterious island surrounded by white mist, a figure appeared out of thin air.
Lin Li left the spirit world and came to the mysterious island. He glanced at the magical tree in front of him, then turned his head and looked around.
With this breakthrough, while the strength has greatly increased, the area of the mysterious island has also increased a lot.
"Fifteen hundred acres is not a small area. I can plant some more things..." Lin Li raised his hand and touched his chin, thinking to himself as he looked at the mysterious island that had greatly increased in area.
The next second, he disappeared in an instant, and when he reappeared, he came to the farmland that had been previously cultivated.
After not picking for a while, the crops in the fields are full of fruits again.
Lin Li began to pick crops. He first broke off some mature corns and put them in empty bamboo frames, and then dug potatoes.
After being busy for an hour, Lin Li’s several large bamboo baskets purchased online were filled with crops.
He looked at the cucumbers, tomatoes, eggplants, watermelons, and strawberries that had not yet been picked in the field, raised his hand, scratched his head, and mumbled.
"It's too much to hold. When I get home, I'll go online and buy a few more big bamboo baskets."
Lin Li came out of the field and went to the edge of the island to fetch water to water the crops on the island. Water.
“These fruit trees seem to be much taller than before. Maybe they will grow fruit earlier than I expected.”
Peach trees and pear trees were previously planted on the north side of the island. , apple trees, loquat trees... Lin Li originally expected to eat the fruits from these fruit trees next year.
Then when he watered these fruit trees now, he found that they were growing vigorously and might be able to bear fruit by the end of the year.
After being busy on the island for a long time, Lin Li watered all the crops before he left the mysterious island.
…………
In the quiet living room, a figure suddenly appeared in front of the TV.
When Lin Li returned home, he stretched immediately, then sat down on the sofa, picked up the TV remote control on the coffee table and turned on the TV.
The beautiful news host was broadcasting the news. Lin Li's eyes widened when he saw the news content.
"Not long after I left in the morning, this kind of vision happened?"
What the beautiful news anchor reported was the sudden appearance of a golden beam of light.
Several hours have passed since this vision appeared and it has not disappeared.
Although the Superpower Management Bureau sent people to investigate, the location where the golden light beam appeared was located deep in the wilderness. On the way to the investigation, the alien beasts hindered the investigation and it was impossible to continue the investigation.
According to what the news host learned, the Superpower Management Bureau is discussing the matter and is preparing to arrange a stronger investigation team to investigate.
After Lin Li finished reading the news, he immediately got up and went to the balcony.
The orchids given by Su Yue and the spiritual plants transplanted by Lin Li before were swaying in the wind. Lin Li glanced at the two potted plants, and then looked into the distance.
On the horizon, a golden beam of light that shoots straight into the sky is extremely conspicuous. Anyone who is not blind can see this vision.
Lin Li raised his hand and touched his chin, looked at the direction where the golden light beam appeared, and said to himself, "Isn't that direction the location where the treasure may appear?"
"Is this golden light beam related to the so-called treasure?"
Lin Li thought for half a minute and decided to log into the Alien Hunters Forum to see if his peers had any information about the golden beam of light.
With a thought in his mind, the mobile phone placed on the mysterious island instantly appeared in his hand.
"Ding dong..."
The phone rang several times as soon as it appeared. Lin Li had seen this situation many times, so he was not surprised.
He took a look at the message, immediately filtered out the boring spam text messages, and opened the social software to read the content sent by Su Yue.
"I saw the golden beam of light you mentioned..."
Lin Li replied to the message, and a few seconds later, Su Yue responded.
"You're back?"
"Well, I just got home."
"After the golden light pillar appears, I always feel that something bad will happen."< br>
"Don't think too much. If anything happens, the Superpower Management Bureau will handle it."
Lin Li chatted with Su Yue for a few words and made an appointment to have dinner together in the evening. Then he logged into the Alien Beast Hunters Forum to look for useful information. intelligence.
Looking through the posts posted by colleagues, although there are many posts about the golden beam of light, they are all ordinary content and have no value at all.
"It's strange that these people didn't go to the site of the incident to investigate in person, so they could get useful information." Lin Li complained after reading some posts from his colleagues, but found nothing to gain.
“The sun will set soon, so forget it today.
If the golden beam of light hasn't disappeared tomorrow, I'll go and see what's going on. "
Lin Liting was curious about the cause of this golden beam of light. He made a decision in his heart. He immediately withdrew his gaze and returned indoors.
…………
The endless wilderness as far as the eye can see. There is a team moving forward slowly
In this area of chaotic magnetic field, the positioning equipment has failed, and the route can only be determined based on the paper map
At the front of the team, Wang Jing, who was responsible for opening the way, suddenly stopped.
When the others saw this, they immediately stopped, and then several investigators surrounded the researcher to guard against possible dangers.
"What happened? Is there a strange beast coming?" Zhao Dongsheng, who was being protected, lowered his voice and asked in a low voice.
Wang Jing shook her head, "Whether it's a strange beast coming, I'm not sure yet.
Just now I sensed a flash of psychic energy in front of me, everyone, please be careful."
The investigators responsible for protecting Zhao Dongsheng clenched their weapons and looked around with serious expressions.
No psychic fluctuations were found within the range of their mental perception.
But even so, they still did not relax their vigilance.
It has been two days since we came here to perform the mission and entered this area of magnetic chaos. The team has not yet left this abnormal area.
Originally, everyone thought that this area of chaotic magnetic field should not be very large, and it would take some time to leave.
As long as you leave this abnormal area, you can use the positioning instrument normally. Then you can simply determine the route and reach your destination earlier.
However, things are not as simple as imagined. The area of this chaotic magnetic field is so large that it exceeds everyone's expectations.
In two whole days, they advanced at least 150 kilometers, but they still had not left the chaotic magnetic field. It was incredible.
According to some existing records, if there is an area of chaotic magnetic field in the wilderness, you can escape by walking in one direction, at most twenty or thirty kilometers.
Now Wang Jing and his party have traveled 150 kilometers in two days, and are still in an area of chaotic magnetic field, exceeding the limit of data records.
And the further you go, some of the topography will be different from the information on the map.
It may not be long before the paper maps they have are no longer useful.
"Huh..."
A breeze blew at the scene, and some of the surrounding flowers, plants and trees were gently swayed by the wind, making rustling sounds. Wang Jing and his party stayed there and observed for a while, but found no trace of the strange beast, so the danger was temporarily relieved.
The tense atmosphere was relieved. Wang Jing, who looked serious, put away her weapon, turned around and said to her teammates.
"We are all tired after walking for so long. Let's take a rest first."
Zhao Dongsheng sat on the ground, took off his backpack and put it aside.
Other investigators took out a water bottle from their backpack and drank some water, while eating some energy bars to replenish their exhausted energy.
"Wang Jing." Zhao Dongsheng suddenly shouted.
When Wang Jing, who was drinking water, heard the words, she raised her head and looked at the other person, and asked doubtfully, "What's the matter?"
"That..." Zhao Dongsheng pondered for a moment and said what he was thinking.
"I found that the surrounding topography is quite different from the description on the map. Did we go to the wrong place?"
Wang Jing frowned slightly, thought for a few seconds, and said slowly, "I determined the route based on some obvious reference objects on the map. The possibility of problems is very small."
After speaking, she looked at the other investigators, wanting to hear what these colleagues thought.
"Some of the reference objects are the same as those recorded on the map, but when I look at some scenery in other places, they are completely different from what is recorded on the map." One investigator said.
"I thought I remembered it wrong, but I didn't expect you to discover this anomaly like me." Another investigator said.
Everyone chatted for a while and found that everyone could see some abnormalities around them.
"..." Wang Jing was silent for half a minute, and then said, "You mean, we can't continue moving forward?"
Everyone nodded, Zhao Dongsheng said, "There is an abnormality in the magnetic field in this area. The area is so large that it is beyond human imagination. If we continue to move forward, we may encounter great danger."
Wang Jing is the commander of this mission. It is up to her to decide whether to cancel the mission and return the same way.
Obviously, the majority of people now support returning the same way.
It’s not that everyone is afraid and shrinking, it’s just that because the way forward is unclear, if you continue to move forward, the probability of encountering danger is high.
If there are any casualties by then, it will be a meaningless sacrifice.
“If we had followed the original plan, we would have arrived at our destination by now.
Now that such a change has occurred, if we continue to move forward, whether we can reach our destination is another matter.
If any danger does occur and casualties occur, no useful information will be obtained. "Zhao Dongsheng analyzed.
His own combat power is very average, and he can only rely on investigators to protect him when he is in danger.
If he knew what was happening now would happen from the beginning, the investigators would not Will take him into action
"Do you have the same idea as him? "After listening to Zhao Dongsheng's analysis, Wang Jing asked other colleagues.
"Yeah." Several investigators nodded.
"Okay, since everyone has this idea, let's give up this mission and make long-term plans after we go back." Wang Jing said.
She is not a reckless person. Since the team members all feel that it is dangerous and meaningless to continue moving forward, it is better to save their strength and return.
When you return to the Superpower Management Bureau, report what happened along the way to your superiors, then regroup and send a more powerful force to investigate.
Decided unanimously to return. After the group had a rest, they packed up and set off.
Wang Jing still walked at the front of the team to clear the way, guarding against possible dangers.
Other investigators stood in different directions, protecting the most vulnerable Zhao Dongsheng.
The sun hanging in the sky is moving slowly. Now Wang Jing and his party mainly rely on the sun to determine their direction.
It is approaching evening, and the sun in the sky is about to disappear.
The setting sun dyed most of the sky red. At this time, the sun set in the west. It was supposed to be the time when tired birds returned to the forest, but no birds were seen in the sky.
In this area of chaotic magnetic field, there are relatively few birds that can be seen.
Wang Jing and the others were confused, but they didn’t particularly care.
So far, they have not encountered any attacks by birds or beasts.
“The sun is going down, let’s find a place to rest.”
“I remember there was a hill in front of me, and when I passed by, I found a cave there.”
"That hill you mentioned, I also saw a cave. We can rest there tonight."
Wang Jing and his group discussed it and decided to speed up and rush to the hill in front.
More than half an hour later, the hill everyone was talking about was still missing.
"It's strange. We walked for half an hour. Logically speaking, we should have reached the foot of the mountain."
"Yes! Look at the tree over there. I remember that There is a hill next to the tree.”
"I also remember that tree. I used it as a reference to determine the location of the hill."
Wang Jing and his group stopped and frowned at the big tree in the distance.
Those who have an impression of hills cannot misremember the location of this big tree.
Using this big tree as a reference, it stands to reason that we have seen the hill, but so far no one has seen the hill.
"Do you have any clues?" Wang Jing turned her head and looked at Zhao Dongsheng.
"I have no clue." Zhao Dongsheng shook his head, and then said, "Everyone's memory cannot be wrong. It is really weird that we don't see that hill now..."
Wang Jing and his party stood where they were, heading towards Patrolling around, hoping to find traces of the hill.
However, this search is in vain. If such a hill is nearby, it can be clearly seen with the naked eye.
Now I look around carefully. If I don’t see it, I don’t see it. There should be something wrong, but I can’t know the reason now.
"How about we go under that tree and have a look, maybe we can find out the reason." Zhao Dongsheng suggested.
Others looked at Wang Jing, just waiting for her to make the final decision.
"Okay, I'll do as you say." Wang Jing had no other choice at this time. Zhao Dongsheng's proposal was not dangerous, so she agreed.
This area is relatively flat right now, and most of it is grass.
Wang Jing and his group walked towards the big tree in the distance. The road was very smooth.
After a while, they came to the foot of the big tree.
This tree is more than 80 meters high. It is very tall when viewed up close, and because of its vigorous growth, it looks like a huge umbrella stuck on the ground.
With such a conspicuous reference, you must be deeply impressed after seeing it, and it is impossible to remember it wrongly.
Wang Jing and his party all have memories of this big tree. It’s okay to say that one or two people remember it wrong, but it’s impossible for everyone to remember it wrong.
So the fact that there is a hill next to it is not because of a memory error. Now that the hill has disappeared, it can only be said that it is caused by some external cause that everyone does not know.
