Starting from pirates and conquering all worlds - Chapter 1709
Chapter 1710 Clo, Lucci and Robin!
[World background: a technologically civilized planet in the early 21st century. ]
[On October 3, 2004, the PS12 artificial satellite of the Weyland Industrial Group discovered the remains of a pyramid building with an obvious heat source 2,000 feet below the ice layer of Bouvet Island in Zone 14 of Antarctica.]
[Mission objective: protect four key targets to return to the surface safely, and a maximum of two deaths are allowed. ]
[Completion reward: 1,000 main god points, 200 main god points will be deducted for each key target that dies, and zero points if the mission fails. ]
[Extra reward: 10 main god points for killing a ‘face hugger’, 100 main god points for killing a ‘drone’ alien, 200 main god points for killing a ‘new blood’ iron warrior, and 1,000 main god points for killing a ‘queen’ alien. ]
Little Robin watched it twice.
Then she stood up and opened the door, thinking of meeting up with Clo and the other two first, and suddenly the cold Antarctic night wind hit her face.
Fortunately, the training in the past few years has given her an excellent physique, and this is perfectly reproduced by the “Main God Space”.
“What a beautiful scene”
Compared to looking at the aurora through the window, standing by the ship to watch the aurora is indeed more spectacular, and Robin was a little fascinated for a while.
Since her mother who was imprisoned in Impel Down for five years was released.
She was also arranged to become the administrator of the “Tree of All-Knowledge” in Academy City.
The burden in her heart was almost swept away.
It’s just a pity that many people, including Dr. Clover, did not survive the five years of imprisonment.
Now she just wants to work hard and meet her mother for a few days from time to time.
As for “archaeology”, it has basically become a personal hobby.
The research direction has also gradually shifted from the native land of Starfish to the ancient history and writing of other worlds.
“Robin.”
Suddenly, Lucci’s slightly cold voice sounded in Robin’s ears.
The girl came back to her senses, turned her head and looked, and replied softly: “Sorry, I was a little fascinated.”
Lucci nodded: “Pay attention next time. In this unfamiliar environment, you must always be vigilant.”
Behind him, Bruno, who is two years older and taller, reaching 1.8 meters, is always silent.
In fact, Robin and Lucci don’t look short.
Although they are only fourteen years old.
But the former is already 1.65 meters tall, and the latter is 1.7 meters tall.
There is no childishness on their calm faces, and they can’t be seen as children at all.
After a while.
The three found Clo’s room, closed the door and held a small meeting.
“Our current identity is a mercenary hired by Weiland Company, responsible for the safety of the expedition team, and I am the deputy captain. There are a total of twelve people. As for the captain, he is a black man named Maxwell Stafford, but remember to call him ‘Max’.”
Clo folded his hands in front of his chest and explained in a deep voice more information he knew as the captain.
“Once we reach the destination, we will go down to equip ourselves with weapons, mainly a G36k assault rifle, a VP78 pistol, and four grenades.”
“There are four key targets for protection, and we will each be responsible for one.”
Kro glanced at the three people in front of him: “I will be responsible for ‘CEO’ Charles Bishop Wieland.”
“‘Explorer’ Alyssa Lex Woods is a woman, Robin, you follow her.”
Robin nodded to show that he understood.
“‘Archaeologist’ Sebastian, you will protect him, Lucci.”
Lucci had no objection: “Okay.”
“The last ‘chemical engineer’ Graeme Miller will be in charge of Bruno.”
“Yes.”
Bruno, who was as strong as an ox, agreed in a muffled voice.
About two hours later.
On October 10, 2004 in this world, around two o’clock in the morning.
The icebreaker named ‘Bagpipe 9’ sailed under the stars and the moon, riding the wind and waves.
Finally arrived at Bouvet Island, the southernmost part of Antarctica.
“Quick!”
“Drag the truck over here!”
“Put the crane over there, now is the time to show our professionalism!”
The drilling team led by Nicola Brett began to move various engineering machinery in full swing.
“Everyone listen carefully!”
“Come here!”
And on the first floor of the ship.
Willand paid a lot of money to invite the “female explorer” Woods to be responsible for the security.
Wearing a red winter coat, she stood in the center and clapped her hands vigorously to greet the main members of the expedition team.
Because they are the ones who are about to go 2,000 feet deep into the ice.
A total of seventeen people.
“Gentlemen, it is my responsibility to ensure your survival during this journey, and I need your assistance”
“Since I haven’t given you enough training, I will now set three rules.”
“First, no one can go anywhere alone.”
“Never allowed!”
“Second, everyone must keep in touch at all times.”
“Third, accidents will happen at any time. Once they happen, no one should try to be a hero, just take care of yourself.”
“Do you understand?”
Woods looked around at the members around him with a serious expression.
Then he looked at the most unreliable of the mercenaries and asked again: “Do you understand?”
“Yes, ma’am.”
“Very good.”
Woods then smiled with satisfaction: “Dismiss!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the venue returned to normal and everyone continued with their work.
Just as Woods was about to walk towards the short-haired female mercenary who was checking her pistol, he found a figure following behind him.
“What are you doing?”
Woods turned back and looked at Robin in confusion.
The latter explained very naturally: “You are very important. The captain asked me to follow you.”
“Well, I hope it’s not me who protects you after you go down~”
Woods teased in a friendly manner, but Robin did not comment on it.
She actually wanted to tell these people that there were dangerous monsters below.
What a pity.
This idea has been warned by the ‘Lord God’ on the grounds that ‘before the mission begins, the normal development of the plot must not be hindered, otherwise it will cause serious consequences’.
Robin is very curious about what serious consequences will be?
But she also knows that now is not the time to satisfy her curiosity and try.
When this mission is completed, when it comes again, maybe Captain Cloe can try it.
Forcibly stop these people from going down!
Not long after.
The convoy, mainly drilling engineering vehicles, drove towards the destination in a mighty manner.
Snowflakes fluttered, ice layers vibrated, and lights pierced through the darkness along the way.
The roar of the engine was endless.
“When I was in Italy, I was still a child. Do you know what a moon this big is called?”
In a moving car, ‘archaeologist’ Sebastian looked out the window at the unusually large moon.
He asked the ‘explorer’ Woods who was sitting next to him, and Lucci and Robin who were responsible for protecting them behind him.
As ‘mercenaries’, Lucci and Robin naturally did not answer.
“Hmm?”
But Woods responded with a nasal tone.
“La luna del cacciatore!”
Sebastian turned his head and said in clear Italian.
Woods imitated him and repeated it, then asked with a smile: “What does it mean?”
“Stewed moon in a pot.”
As Sebastian explained, Robin also said the same word in his heart.
“Hunter, meaning hunter moon, the first full moon after the harvest moon!”
Woods raised his eyebrows: “Hunter moon?”
“Hmm.”
Sebastian nodded.
Then the man and woman looked at each other silently until they laughed happily.
But they didn’t notice that Lucci and Robin in the back row also looked at each other.
The former was thinking.
The people created by this ‘Main God Space’ are really lifelike.
The latter was thinking about philosophical issues.
Two people from the world of ‘Devil Moon’ were actually chatting about the meaning of the moon in front of them, and rushing towards ‘death’ under the moon.
