Deep in the Living

Chapter 621 Director General

With the relocation work successfully completed, the students have a general understanding of the relevant situation.

Luo Di, this special student, was called to Mr. Guo's office alone.

According to the original plan,
After a month of studying at the school, Mr. Question Mark will provide him with information about the location of [Joker]. At that time, Roddy will be able to begin his hunt.

But plans can't keep up with changes.

Even someone like Mr. Question Mark has disappeared, so Roddy's personal actions need to be changed.

"After the conversation, Gustav and I will personally escort you and Yu Ze to the Human Exploration Bureau. With the two of you at the center, I will mainly discuss cooperation issues."

As for the Joker's location, I will give it to you as agreed, but you must not investigate it independently.

"Don't worry about that, Teacher Guo. I wouldn't go so far as to deliberately throw my life away."

Once I've finalized things with the Exploration Bureau, I'll immediately return to the human world to find Mr. Kraft. By the way, Professor Guo, you should know him better than I do, right?

"I'd better not take up too much time when I go out, as the state of Whirlpool Town is closely related to me."

The reason the other party didn't infiltrate directly is related to the special barrier I set up and the privileges granted to the corner.

"If I'm not there, things could easily go wrong here. This trip to the Exploration Bureau with you is the longest I've been able to go out so far."

"Okay, then I'll go talk to him."

That's right! Mr. Kraft may have foreseen this long ago and has already signed a cooperation agreement with the hellish world I'm connected to.

If the human world is invaded, Hell will offer some assistance.

Teacher Guo waved her hand, "You don't need to explain this to me in detail. I only care about the situation in the corner. You can decide what to do with the humans yourself... Besides, Mr. Kraft will definitely take good care of them. We should just do what we're supposed to do."

"Ok."

Teacher Guo also took out a document from the drawer.

The map above corresponds to the middle area in the corner. In the upper part of the map, a hand-drawn fog covers an unknown area.

This area is like an isolated island, separated from the middle zone, and marked with the word "unknown".

"These are the geographical coordinates we analyzed using various methods during the last freshman assessment. They indicate the area where the clowns operate."

This area extends beyond the boundaries of the middle-level zone and must be an additional area that has been developed.

The extraterrestrial being that caused Mr. Question Mark's disappearance and the complete fall of Sin City must have originated from here.

We will likely organize a blockade operation to fully penetrate the area, and forcibly shut down any channels connecting to the outside world that are discovered.

Of course, there's a prerequisite for doing this: we need to have a sufficient understanding of what's coming from 'outside' the region.

Luo Di, however, was somewhat puzzled. "Teacher Guo, what exactly are these guys from outside the realm trying to do? That being who spread the comics must be incredibly powerful."

If the goal is to target the corner, why doesn't he just make a move directly instead of waiting for another being to arrive?
Was something restraining them? Or was the comic book creator simply incapable of killing? It all feels very strange.

"Different worlds have different rules and different systems. If we try to understand a world that is completely different from us, much older than us, or even superior to us, it is indeed difficult to make correct predictions."

"If you want to understand, then get close to them, kill them, and you'll naturally gain detailed knowledge."

Teacher Guo's words were clearly tinged with emotion, and her facial features began to shift, but she quickly regained her composure.

Roddy roughly understood what he meant. "When are we leaving?"

"Go and inform Yu Ze now that you two are ready and meet at the west exit of Whirlpool Town."

"Don't we need to use the teleportation array inside the teaching building?"

“No need. Yu Ze knows a lot. He can provide the Human Exploration Bureau with stable spatial coordinates. As long as he cooperates with me, we can create a temporary portal.”

"Row."

As Luo Di turned to leave, Teacher Guo's voice still followed, "Don't be in too much of a hurry. You can say goodbye to the others before you leave."

……

Because the sorority moved in, Hua Yuan and Yu Lu both moved back in.

Wu Wen's villa was once again left with only her and her maids.

Somewhat unexpectedly,

When Roddy came over today, the maids didn't open the door in advance.

Strangely, after knocking on the door, there was still no response. After waiting for a while, he had no choice but to sneak in through the window.

The maids were all gone, but Wu Wen's presence was still there in the master bedroom.

Not in bed,

As Roddy turned and entered the bathroom, a young girl with a lit cigarette lay in the bathtub, which was filled with ice.

"Squad leader, what's going on?"

Wu Wen no longer wore her usual standard smile; instead, she looked indifferent. "My life plan has been disrupted, and I need to reorganize my thoughts."

According to the original plan, the things from beyond the realm shouldn't arrive so quickly, giving us enough time to develop. Now it seems the entire region might change, and I must make changes… otherwise, at our current level, we won't even be able to protect our own lives.”

"that……"

Just as Luo Di was about to say something, he was interrupted by the other party.

"That's settled then! Most courses at school will be suspended for the time being, so I won't be able to improve effectively for the time being. It's even more impossible for me to break through like Hunter."

I'll go back with you.

"Of course, it will still be in the form of an avatar descending. Roddy, you'll have to get me a suitable fake human corpse."

"Have you talked to Teacher Guo about this? We are in a critical period right now, so please try to minimize going out."

“I will talk to him. Besides, I am only descending to earth in an avatar. I will not wander around in the corners... We will meet with Mr. Kraft again later.”

Besides, you'll most likely have to go to hell, right?

"Yes, I need to go to hell and get a suitable weapon."

"I'll go to hell with you! That's settled then, you hurry up and leave, let me lie here alone for a while."

"Row."

Roddy didn't waste time on the others, after all, he was only going to the human world and hell, and would come back once he finished his business.

They called Yu Ze, and the two met up in the west of the city.

For some reason, Yu Ze seems to have looked much more haggard lately, and his dark circles are more pronounced than before.

Yu Ze provided very specific spatial coordinates using a compass, and Teacher Guo's finger began to rotate in the air, drawing a vortex portal.

Upon closer inspection, it can be observed that the curvature and rotation frequency of the vortex are different from those of a conventional vortex.

The four of them stepped inside and found themselves directly in the corner section (shallow-middle level) where the Exploration Bureau was located, standing right under the department store that represented the headquarters building, in the middle of the crossroads.

Surprisingly,
Even though Gustav was completely unrestrained in his aura and had reached the limits of a monster, no alarms were triggered.

Not only that, the bottom door was completely open, as if it knew they were coming, but the inside of the building was pitch black and nothing could be seen.

Teacher Guo asked softly, "Yu Ze, did you already communicate with him beforehand?"

Yu Ze was equally puzzled, "I only gave a general explanation of the nature of Vortex Town and discussed matters related to cooperation. I didn't mention anything about Mr. Question Mark's experience or the external threats."

There are two possibilities: either the Exploration Bureau itself is aware of the extraterrestrial invasion, or this place has also been invaded. Professor Guo, it's necessary to have a backup plan.

Teacher Guo had naturally considered the most dangerous situation in advance. The vortex gate he created was two-way, ready to take everyone away at any time.

Suddenly, a beam of flashlight shone from inside and shone on the four people.

Looking up,

An old man dressed as an explorer, wearing a monocle, leaning on a cane in one hand and holding a flashlight in the other, is watching them.

"You've arrived way too late, come in quickly."

The Bureau of Investigation has brought all agents on duty back to the front lines as soon as possible and conducted in-depth joint screenings on them. Moreover, the screening department is not located here.

Even the slightest suspicion requires a quarantine of more than ten days before being allowed to return to headquarters.

I can assure you that there are no [hole infections] in the current area of ​​the Exploration Bureau.

I will arrange a meeting as soon as possible, and all ministers will be present.

I'm also very pleased that the monsters have someone like you who has always maintained humanity to lead them.

Teacher Guo was also quite surprised. He didn't expect that humans already had relevant information, and it seemed that they had made quite a few gains, and even had a method to screen and identify this special infection.

He also noticed that the old man in front of him looked familiar; he seemed to have seen the old man's appearance in a book when he was young before, and he quickly searched his memory for the answer.

"You are the first explorer in human history to reach the edge and survive, Dyatlov! The founder of the atomic military industry and one of the initiators of the United States proposal."

When Teacher Guo mentioned this name, Luo Di realized that he had seen this name many times in his textbooks.

Moreover, the capital university is named after him, Dyatlov University, or simply Dyatlov University.

It was this predecessor from the Soviet Union who survived the near-death exploration at the time, which enabled the United States to be successfully established and allowed humanity to make early access to the corners of the world and gradually begin to explore personal systems and fear.

Yu Ze, who was standing next to him, added information about the man: "Mr. Dyatlov is also the Director-General of the Exploration Bureau and the Minister of the First Department."

Gustav, however, was surprisingly restrained, even looking like an honest man. Only Roddy could sense that his tongue was churning inside his mouth.

Just as everyone was preparing to go in,

Diatlov adjusted his monocle and suddenly looked at Roddy, "A very excellent young agent. You are at a critical stage of your development right now, there's no need to waste time on this kind of meeting."

You don't need to participate anymore. Go take care of your personal matters in the human world.

"Ok."
