From the time travel, I became extraordinary

The night was so dark that it was almost difficult to see one's own five fingers when one stretched out one's hand.

In the southeast of the British Empire, on a remote coastline.

A few beams of lights flickered, and after a while, a kayak slowly and silently approached the shore like a ghost in the sea.

"Come out, bronze man, I am Nightingale..." Two figures jumped down from the kayak.

The two of them, wearing night vision goggles, glanced around, and one of them shouted softly towards the rocky area in front of them.

The pure oriental language, with a slight accent, could still be clearly heard from a distance in the quiet night even if the voice was deliberately lowered.

As they were talking, the two dark figures that got off the kayak still showed no sign of relaxing their vigilance. They were always on high alert, guarding against any accidents that might occur at any time.

"Nightingale, you're finally here!" There was no movement in the rocky area. At this moment, a dark figure slowly emerged from a reef in the sea about 20 to 30 meters away from the kayak.

He was very agile. After climbing up the reef, he waded through the almost knee-deep water. In just three or five steps, he had reached the two people who had gotten off the kayak.

Whether it is Bronze Man or Nightingale, they are just nicknames and definitely not real names.

The guy nicknamed Bronze Man who just came out from the edge of the reef was Zeng Lin who had been missing for several days.

He practiced the Vajra Body Horizontal Training Technique, and compared to when he just left his hometown to report to Kyoto, he now had a lot more tendon muscle all over his body. He also had a fierce aura that was rarely seen in ordinary people.

In the town of Misa, when he had a conflict with the werewolves, he managed to escape by chance thanks to his thick skin and flesh, but he was also seriously injured.

Knowing that with his limited strength, he was no match for those ferocious werewolves, he had only one thought in his mind at that time, which was to run as far away as possible.

After all, the ancients once said that as long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood.

He was also saddened by the death of his colleague, but under the circumstances at the time, he had no way to deal with it.

Even if he wanted to avenge his companions, he would have to wait until he became stronger. If he didn't run away and continued to stay there, he would definitely die.

He didn't even know how far he had escaped. He first stayed in a jungle for two days, and then hid in a remote farm nearby.

It was not until two or three days ago that he successfully contacted his country after his injuries had basically recovered.

The man who brought him back to China, nicknamed Nightingale, was probably in his thirties. He also came from the Emergency Affairs Management Office and was one of Zeng Lin's colleagues.

Hearing that familiar accent and seeing that equally familiar face in front of him, Zeng Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief: "This damn place, I'm so scared every day, I don't want to stay here for a moment now."

"Old Fang, what is the result of Director Zhu and the others now?"

"Those damn werewolves were too powerful. Even Zhu Chu was no match for them. They only lasted a few breaths before they fled in panic."

"I am lucky and a little bit fortunate to be able to stand here alive!"

……

He cursed a few times, and when he thought of the scene of that day, a trace of sadness appeared on Zeng Lin's face.

"Director Zhu is fine. He is now lying in the hospital. He should be able to recover after a period of rest."

"Besides him, you are the only one confirmed to be still alive."

"Let's go. This is not the place to talk. We can talk about everything after we get back."

With a complicated expression, Nightingale also sighed.

After waving to Zeng Lin, he took the lead, turned around and got back on the kayak.

"Just one kayak? Lao Fang, shall we go back in this?" Following closely behind Nightingale, Zeng Lin and the unnamed man also got on a kayak, but there was obvious confusion on his face, and he couldn't help but ask.

The Lao Fang he mentioned was naturally the guy Nightingale.

The two of them work in the same department, and on weekdays, they've gotten used to calling him "Lao Fang".

Now that he had confirmed the other party's identity, he naturally didn't bother to continue calling the other party by his nickname.

"The kayak we are riding is just a temporary means of transportation. There are submarines on the sea to pick us up."

"If our submarine rashly enters the waters of the British Empire and is discovered by negligence, it will easily cause international disputes."

"In order to bring you back, this time, the higher-ups paid a huge price and took a huge risk."

The one who spoke at this moment was the guy whose name was unknown.

This man was probably over 40 years old, and judging by his sitting, standing and walking habits, he seemed to have a strong military demeanor.

From beginning to end, he looked very serious and his tone of voice was cold.

Facing Zeng Lin, he didn't respond politely, but seemed to be slightly dissatisfied.

After working in the Emergency Management Office for such a long time, Zeng Lin has indeed become much more mature compared to before.

Hearing that there was a submarine coming to pick him up, and sensing the obvious dissatisfaction in the words of the man in front of him, he didn't say much, but just chuckled twice.

Amid the sound of splashing water, the kayak went farther and farther away. Under the cover of thick night, Zeng Lin and his group soon disappeared into the vast ocean.

In an office building on Downing Street in the foggy city.

"Everyone, please put aside the matters at hand for the time being."

"Please take a good look at the file in front of you first." James Mason, the head of the Sixth Department, had a gloomy expression on his face as he sat at the head of the conference table. He pointed at the document that had just been distributed to everyone at the table and spoke.

Smith, who was busy helping Jiang Yao find his brother, was a middle-to-senior level employee in the department. He also rushed here and appeared at the conference table because of a call from James Mason.

Today is already the third day since he met Jiang Yao. He promised that he would be able to provide useful clues today, but he still hasn't found anything.

He was already worried and didn't want to waste even a second, so he really didn't want to care about other matters in the department.

It’s a pity that a higher-ranking official can crush a lower-ranking official. Once James Mason gives an order, no matter how reluctant he is, he still has to show up here on time.

"What? The Sword in the Stone appeared in the Brecon Beacons National Park in southern Wales, and then it suddenly flew away for no apparent reason?"

"How is this possible? Wasn't it rumored that this sword had long been lost? Wasn't the sword in the Brecon Beacons National Park simply a replica?"

"Although the Sword in the Stone is famous, it is just a dead object after all. How can it turn into bloody light and soar into the sky?"

"Rumor, this is absolutely a rumor!"

……

Reluctantly, Smith just flipped open the document in front of him and took a quick look at it. Then, he was stunned and couldn't help but exclaimed.

He was like this, and the reactions of the others present were not much better than his.

After all, the legendary Sword in the Stone is so famous in their British Empire that it is almost a household name.

Such a legendary magical weapon that can almost be said to represent the destiny of their empire suddenly flew away and disappeared after appearing in the world. This is simply outrageous, it is outrageous to the extreme.

If someone suddenly told them about this, everyone present would definitely spit on the other person's face. But now, Jameson, their direct superior, summoned them and suddenly put such a document in front of them. The meaning must be completely different.

“There were eyewitnesses who saw this happen when it happened in the Brecon Beacons National Park.”

"When the Sword in the Stone turned into blood and flew away, the witness tried to stop it, but his arm was cut off in an instant."

"He is still receiving treatment in the hospital. After evaluation, he has absolutely no mental problems."

"In addition, after the incident, the entire Brecon Beacons National Park has been completely blocked."

"The situation at the scene and the situation captured by the surveillance camera clearly prove that there was no external interference. The huge rock did break suddenly, and the sword in the stone hidden inside soared into the sky, and then turned into blood and disappeared into the sky."

"In the eyes of all citizens of the empire, what kind of symbolic significance this sword has, I don't need to tell you, everyone here should know it well."

"We have received a death order from above. We must find the whereabouts of the Sword in the Stone within half a month."

"What do you think about this?"

……

James Mason had a frown on his face. As he spoke, his eyes swept across the conference room, taking in the reactions of everyone present.

Half a month is neither long nor short.

But he really had no idea how to find the sword that had mysteriously flown away, and didn't know where to start.

When an order came down from above, he had no choice but to put pressure on the people below to see if he could get some feasible plans from them.

"The legendary Sword in the Stone has extraordinary power. It is an extraordinary sword."

“The sword in the Brecon Beacons National Park is said by some to be real, while others believe it is a replica, but no one can really say whether it is real or fake.”

"After the great King Arthur, the sword seemed to have completely lost its magic, and there are no more rumors about it."

"Perhaps, it is because no one has ever been able to gain the recognition of the Sword in the Stone that it has fallen into silence."

"This time, it suddenly appeared and then left on its own. Could it be that a true king has finally been born in our British Empire?"

……

It was like being in a vegetable market; the entire conference room was filled with noise.

Unfortunately, although everyone spoke enthusiastically and discussed a lot, their topic all revolved around the Sword in the Stone, and no one mentioned how to find the missing sword.

"Enough!" Jameson frowned, gritted his teeth, and slammed the table in front of him.

With an expression that he hated them for not fighting, he swept his sharp eyes over everyone present and spoke again, "I let you speak so that you can think of ways to solve the problem."

"A true king was born in the empire? What do you want to do?"

"Do you want to rebel, overthrow the current royal family, and join the unknown new king?"

"If anyone really has such an idea, there is no need to hide it, just bring it up directly."

"Don't worry, I will definitely not make things difficult for you. No matter who you are, as long as you hand in your resignation report, I promise to sign it immediately and let you go, so that you can follow the new king."

……

The words, filled with strong sarcasm, slowly came out of Jameson's mouth.

He glanced at everyone in the conference room. At this moment, his eyes were sinister and a little scary.

When his eyes fell on Smith, he was slightly relieved and his expression eased a little: "Smith, you didn't join in the discussion with others, but you glanced at me several times in a row."

"Based on what I know about you, this is the situation where you have something to say but don't know how to start."

"If you have any suggestions, just ask directly. Even if it doesn't help much in finding the Sword in the Stone, it doesn't matter!"

Their Sixth Department is actually an intelligence department.

If you want to become the head of this department, it’s not enough to have connections, you also need to have strong abilities.

To be able to sit in this position, Jameson has worked hard all the way and climbed up step by step. Just by looking at the reactions of the people present, he can already analyze some of the general thoughts in these guys' minds.

"Boss, as you know, I have been busy with Jiang Yao's affairs these days."

"We have already found the surveillance video of him entering the country."

"From the situation at the time, he was wearing a security uniform that is very common in the East, and he didn't carry any luggage at all."

"But, when I saw him a few days ago, he had a blood-red sword in his hand."

"That sword seemed very precious to him. It was never out of his sight."

"From what we have investigated, after arriving at the Fog City Airport, he left directly in a taxi."

"A handicraft? Or an antique? The sword doesn't look like one, and he has never stayed in such places."

"When I met Jiang Yao, I was a little confused. Where did he get this sword?"

"After seeing the dossier about the Sword in the Stone in the conference room, I have been wondering whether there is any connection between the extra blood-red sword in Jiang Yao's hand and the Sword in the Stone?"

……

Jameson suddenly looked at him, and the other people in the meeting room stopped talking and turned their eyes to him. Smith, who was in this situation, was obviously under a lot of pressure.

After hesitating for a moment, he finally spoke and expressed his guess.

How troublesome is Jiang Yao? The other people in the meeting room have only seen him in information, but Smith is the only one who has experienced this firsthand.

Every time, just standing in front of Jiang Yao, he was terrified and walked on thin ice, feeling like he was dancing on the edge of a knife.

After all, he was also worried that he would be like his subordinates, accidentally say the wrong thing, or do something wrong, and then be slapped to death by the other party.

"What? The sword in Jiang Yao's hand could be the Excalibur?" Many people in the conference room looked stunned as if they were frightened, and some even exclaimed out loud.

Jameson had a sullen face, and after a while, he finally spoke: "When it comes to that person, everything has to be considered carefully."

"This meeting ends here. I will report Smith's speculation directly to the higher-ups."

"Remember, no one should act rashly before a decision is made from above."

While warning everyone, his cold and stern gaze swept across the faces of everyone present.

Although Smith was the only one who had contact with Jiang Yao, before the incident of the Sword in the Stone happened, Jameson and others also focused their attention on this matter.

How could he not know how terrifying and troublesome this person is!
After saying a few words, he stood up and walked directly out of the meeting room. (End of this chapter)
