Chapter 515: First Contact
Ye Lan and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.
Broken Research Institute...did they really not know that there was a big pit that led directly to the surface?
If this is true... the Broken Research Institute has too few information channels, right?
Even this big pit should have appeared for a day. During this day, have they never sent anyone to the second experimental site for maintenance?
"I have reported my identity, what about yours?"
The commander spoke absentmindedly.
"Deputy Director of the Broken Research Institute, Lie Pu."
Deputy Director? Ye Lan frowned. Could it be that they were not as urgent as they thought? Didn't the director come out?
Ye Lan narrowed his eyes and nodded gently to Xia Manman.
Whether it is true or not, you will know it after a test. Ye Lan is ready to take the initiative to reveal some news that he is not afraid of the other party knowing, to test the reaction.
"Shattered Light City disappeared, and a deep pit several thousand meters deep collapsed on the surface. The first round of our exploration of this area led us directly to what you call the third experimental point." Xia Manman said coldly, with an attitude of asking for accusations:
"Do you have anything to say about this?"
Shattered Light City disappeared?
The person in charge frowned and looked at Xia Manman's expression, which was not joking, but still looked surprised: "What nonsense are you talking about? How could such a big Shattered Light City disappear?"
"The morning bell of Shattered Light City failed to ring." Although Xia Manman was explaining, her momentum was undoubtedly full of aggression: "Don't you even know this? Are you really listening to the oracle of the Lord God?"
The commander of the Shattered Research Institute turned pale, and then quickly restrained himself.
"The Lord God is not in good condition, and he can't always convey the oracle to us, but you..."
He paused, and a tangled look appeared on his face.
This explanation was completely unexpected by them, and it also perfectly explained why these powerful people appeared out of thin air and then killed all the way from the third experimental point to the door of the institute.
But...
"I'm sorry, I still need to confirm your identity."
Xia Manman narrowed her eyes, revealing a dangerous luster in her eyes:
"How to confirm?"
The man pointed to several strange devices on the side.
"Through our professional full-body examination."
Ye Lan narrowed his eyes, and Xia Manman knew what Ye Lan meant, and said coldly:
"Did you get something wrong?"
Xia Manman gradually discovered that the identity of the Tribunal was quite useful for this so-called department directly under the Lord God, under the premise that they could not move the Lord God's oracle.
"The disappearance of the Broken Light City alarmed the entire Yu Guang Land and several Wasteland Lords."
"Our Tribunal went underground to investigate, but found that you were thousands of meters underground in the disappeared Broken Light City, safe and sound?"
"And you are still conducting unknown experiments that are not reported, highly dangerous, and highly weird."
"It is indeed necessary to check your identity, but it should be us who check you!"
The other party's face became visibly ugly.
Yes, this is the biggest and unsolvable contradiction that is exposed.
They suspected that they were monsters that had escaped from the third experimental area. On the other hand, they suspected that they were suspicious, had strange motives, and were very problematic. Both sides did not trust each other at all.
They did not dare to let the other party check themselves, but they had to check the other party before they could enter the real contact stage.
Suddenly, the deputy director of the Broken Research Institute looked gloomy as if he had made a decision.
"In that case, I will go and ask the oracle of the Lord God." He said in a cold voice: "If what you said is true, we will receive you well and cooperate with you. If..."
Ask the oracle?
Ask the oracle of the Pure Residual Sun?
Can they really do it? At this moment? Can the Pure Residual Sun really respond? This...
Lie Pu had no idea that such a sentence shocked the Lord God level on the opposite side, but when he walked quickly towards the research institute, he suddenly thought of something and turned his head abruptly.
This time, he looked at Ye Lan and Bai Taotao.
"By the way, who are they?"
He suddenly realized something. The two people seemed to be wearing different clothes. They were not the familiar Yuhui Cult battle clothes.
Bai Taotao smiled and walked forward, with an aura no less than Xia Manman.
"Before that, can you please put away those red dot sights that hurt your eyes? If you keep pointing like this, I can't help but take action."
Lie Pu narrowed his eyes, and clearly felt a hint of danger in her.
After a while, he finally waved his hand.
Perhaps he knew very well that a team that had been destroyed all the way from the third experimental point could not be deterred by this little firepower.
"Very good." Bai Taotao smiled: "I am the Pope of the Eternal Night Cult."
Lie Pu's expression was blank at first, and then it did change suddenly.
He did not talk to Bai Taotao anymore, and then turned to Xia Manman, angrily saying:
"What on earth are you doing? As the Archbishop of the Judgment of the Yuhui Divine Religion, you actually brought outsiders to such a sacred and top-secret place? I think your term as the Acting Archbishop has come to an end!"
Xia Manman raised her eyebrows, but ignored the other party's scolding at all, instead... asked back in surprise:
"You don't even know about the Eternal Night Divine Religion?"
Lie Pu did not expect the other party to react like this, and was once again stunned by the question, and then his face turned black.
"What is the Eternal Night Divine Religion? It's unheard of. Isn't it just a small and abnormal force?"
Xia Manman and Bai Taotao looked at each other in bewilderment.
In the wasteland today, there are still people in such a position. Don't they know about the Eternal Night Cult?
They know almost nothing about the outside world?
But now is not the time to discuss this issue, but the time to make a final conclusion on this situation.
"Can you really keep in touch with the Lord God?" Xia Manman looked at Lie Pu suspiciously: "The Eternal Night Cult is a new force jointly protected by the God of Sunset and the Evil God of Corruption. It is one of the three major religions in the wasteland. You listen to the Lord God's oracle every day, but you don't even know such information?"
Lie Pu's face changed wildly, and his steps towards the research institute stopped completely.
What? When did such a force appear? Is this true?
Wait... That means that the little girl is equivalent to the Pope of the Sunset Cult?
This...
Lie Pu's eyes were dim and uncertain.
The situation suddenly became indescribably complicated.
It doesn't matter how they came... The Archbishop of Judgment and the Pope of Eternal Night arrived at the Broken Research Institute at the same time?
"But... even so! Even if he is the Pope of the Eternal Night Cult, you shouldn't bring him to such a confidential place!" He shouted: "You are blaspheming the Lord God!"
"Keep your voice down, I can hear you." Xia Manman waved her hand impatiently:
"The Eternal Night Cult is investigating this matter in conjunction with my church in accordance with the Covenant of the Five Gods. There is no problem with this matter in any process."
Lie Pu's expression changed again.
"The Covenant of the Five Gods?"
This time he finally had no reason and spoke after a continuous pause.
"But... such a confidential place, without the oracle of the Lord God, we really can't open it..."
Xia Manman narrowed her eyes and said aggressively:
"Didn't you just say that you would ask the Lord God for instructions?"
