Chapter 343 334. Christina

The hydraulic drilling rig is working in the blizzard with a drill pipe that is hundreds of meters long and connected by high-strength alloy sections. The roar of the diamond drill bit penetrates from the gap between the drill pipe and the deep well, echoing in the valley.

Sakurai Masahiko would always be awakened from his nap by the roaring sound. When he woke up, his face was covered with sweat, and even his vest was soaked with cold sweat.

He imagined that the loud noise of the drill bit drilling into the rock formation was like thunder deep underground.

It's like the unwilling undead in hell are roaring at the world on earth.

There was a heavy snowstorm at the construction site, and the flames burned brightly in the gas furnace covered by the iron shed, sharing the rare warmth with the workers who were still sticking to their posts.

Sakurai Masahiko unscrewed the thermos cup, took a sip of the hot tea inside, and let out a contented sigh, then looked at the construction valley again with worried eyes.

The name of this valley is Thunder Valley, because the Akagui River below collides in the winding rock formations and makes a thunderous roar. The thunderous sound is then transmitted up the rock and soil layers into the valley.

Some people also say that this place is actually the exit of the underworld, and the so-called thunder is simply the evil spirits knocking on the door of the human world.

Sakurai Masahiko didn't know the significance of the family's excavations here, but he felt a little uneasy in his heart. Whenever he heard those deafening explosions, he would be frightened, fearing that he had inadvertently opened a long road to hell.

Five xenon headlights are installed on the top of the red and yellow short tower, standing at five directions in the valley. The bright light spots move as they rotate, slowly illuminating the valley and illuminating the distant mountain shadows. The busy staff in Lianggu looked like they were cooking oil.

There were only a few people in the temporary simple work shed, and Sakurai Masahiko then turned his attention to the Russian girl who had been silent and typing on a portable computer since entering the place.

Kristina Kabaeva graduated from the Soil Science Institute of Moscow State University and is an expert in geology and underground hydrology. She was hired by the Rock Flow Research Institute to assist in the excavation of the Akagui River. In addition, she Japanese boyfriend Koichi Ryoma.

Both of them carried cards that could prove their identity and work certificates from the Rockflow Research Institute, and Kaguya's system could also identify them, so Masahiko Sakurai had no reason to suspect that they were actually spies of the secret party.

In the distance, a man named Ryoma Koichi was overlooking the valley on the edge of the cliff, leaning on a large construction forklift, his shoulders covered with snowflakes.

The guy was holding a pack of cigarettes with one hand and a lighter with the other. His head and neck were so cold that he wanted to retract into his collar, like a bastard who hadn't had enough sleep after being woken up in winter.

I don’t know how such a guy got together with that Russian girl. They don’t seem to be the same kind of people at all.

"I checked the progress of your construction. It has now been excavated 311 meters, but the progress is obviously getting slower and slower." Christina tied her long hair back and wore a black pair wearing huge plastic-framed glasses, with only light makeup on his face, and a thick coat wrapped around his body, he looked like a strict emperor penguin.

However, her dress was exactly like that of a graduate of Moscow State University. At a glance, Sakurai Masahiko felt that although she was too beautiful, she was a Russian girl who didn't speak very well and was not easy to get along with.

When she said these words, she pushed up her glasses so that she looked more like a meticulous science girl.

"The further down the excavation work goes, the higher the temperature, and the thicker the rock formations that need to be broken through, even the diamond drill bit has to stop from time to time to cool down, and the hydraulic drilling rig also needs to rest to relieve metal fatigue." Masahiko Sakurai said helplessly Said, "However, we are already operating those large machines at their limit, and the depth of the red mud layer of the Akuki River that was surveyed before the start of the project is still less than ten meters."

Sure enough, she is a little girl who has just entered society. Although she has the name of Iwaryu Research Institute, she has such an attitude of accountability when she gets here, which is really annoying, Masahiko Sakurai thought to herself, but there was no trace of it on her face. Make an impatient expression.

However, I didn't expect that what came out of Christina's mouth was pure Japanese, with some dialects from the four northern islands.

Kristina stood up with a straight face and came to the door of the shed. The wind was a bit strong, so Masahiko Sakurai held up an umbrella over her head.

"To a depth of ten meters, judging from the current speed, it will take about a day, right?" Christina said.

"To be precise, it is twenty-five hours. It is not ruled out that accidents may cause this time to be extended, or the underground river cavity may be drilled in advance. In addition, it will take sixteen hours to run the pipe and cement the well. At this time, the project will be considered completed." Masahiko Sakurai is indeed a professional and knows the time very accurately.

Christina nodded, indicating that she understood.

According to the information, the nearby construction ruins were left a year ago. After the well digging progress was stopped, all the machinery and equipment were left behind. For example, those expensive tools were damaged when digging the deep well that penetrated the Akagui River. Hearing the curse of the dead souls in the underground river, everyone fled in panic.

The current project started two months ago, and there was a gap of ten months.

Obviously, the Snakekihachi family has done something in these ten months, and they are sure that even if they do not find the burial place of the White King, they will at least find a cluster of dragon subspecies from the Akaki River, so before the construction begins They brought a lot of mercury jars here.

But even a fool knows that mercury alone cannot kill a real ancient dragon, so if nothing unexpected happens, within the next twenty-five hours, the armed forces of the eight Sheqi families will come to the Thunder Valley one after another.

Christina was a little anxious. Although EVA forged their identities at the Rock Flow Research Institute for them, it was difficult to guarantee that they would not be exposed on the spot.

But her face was still calm and gentle and she didn't show it. She just frowned slightly with her slender eyebrows and tapped her slender index finger lightly on the wrist of her other hand.

At this time, Lu Mingfei trotted back to the shed, pouting and breathing into his two held hands.

His disguise skills are quite good, and although Lu Mingfei is a well-known person in the Sheqiba family, few people have actually seen him, so he only needs to change some details of his facial features and face to hide it.

Christina quickly made way for Lu Mingfei, tilting her head to look at the Chinese man next to her who was a head taller than her, but she recalled the first time they met.

Lu Mingfei went with Xia Mi during the 3E exam. At that time, he was still a big boy with a childish look on his face.

Christina was not from the mixed-race world before, and knew nothing about the dragon world before entering Kassel Academy, so she didn't know what the S-class that those people cheered meant.

Later, Lu Mingfei used his actions in the Three Gorges and Chicago to tell Kristina the value of this class, but they did not have much intersection.

After stamping his feet for a while and feeling a little warmer, Lu Mingfei smiled at Masahiko Sakurai and said, "I forgot to bring a fire." The expression on this guy's face was really embarrassing, and Christina realized There was still an unlit cigarette in his mouth.

Sakurai Masahiko thought to himself that he had no eyesight. If someone stood in the snow for so long with a cigarette in his mouth but didn't light it, then he didn't have any fire!

He quickly touched his pocket, and unexpectedly took out a box of windproof matches. He took one and lightly scratched one side of the box, and a small flame jumped in front of several people.

Lu Mingfei quickly lowered his head, put the cigarette butt into the windproof space surrounded by Sakurai Masahiko's hands, lit it, took a deep breath, and after a moment of aftertaste, he slowly exhaled the blue-white smoke, while letting out a low sigh. Admire.

"I have just been observing the progress of the drilling. The speed is very fast, and the current depth is almost three hundred meters. I guess there should be porous volcanic rock underneath that cannot stop the diamond drill bit." Lu Mingfei took a few puffs. Yan, then looked at Masahiko Sakurai with a relieved expression, "I think we will soon witness what kind of things are buried in the Akagui River."

"There may be a biogas borehole below. Yesterday we found black moist soil rich in biogas in the sampling hole. Therefore, the drilling machine cannot work at high intensity for a long time because biogas backflow and gas outbursts may occur due to high-temperature drilling equipment. When it is ignited, the pillar of flames reaching into the sky will be clearly visible in Tokyo," Masahiko Sakurai said. At this time, Christina returned to her desk and brewed a cup of hot coffee for Lu Mingfei. Lu Mingfei held the cup of coffee in his hand and reached out to touch the girl's beautiful long hair.

It seemed that they were indeed a couple. Sakurai Masahiko turned his eyes to the other side in a slightly embarrassed and helpless manner.

This was exactly the effect Lu Ming insisted on creating. If Christina's identity was really suspected, then with Yuan Zhisheng's understanding of their team, it was impossible not to know that her boyfriend was Caesar.

Caesar is a proud lion. He will not allow anyone to get involved with his girl, so the man who appears here cannot be Lu Mingfei.

Ryoma Koichi could be a ninja disguised as a man, or he could be a Caesar in disguise, but it just couldn't be Lu Mingfei.

"There aren't many villages around here. Everyone has been moved to live in the city, and few people use this road anymore. The family spent money to rent out the entire forest in the name of scientific investigation, so no matter No one will know if we make any noise here," Sakurai Masahiko said, "But if a pillar of flame really rises from the forest, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government will probably come to attack us before the next day. Asked for guilt."

Lu Mingfei took a sip of scalding coffee. He was still staring at the giant drilling machine at work, but he was not thinking about the slow awakening of the Yamata no Orochi in the Akagui River.

He was thinking about Yuan Zhisheng and Yuan Zhisheng.

I don't know if he is being controlled again. That younger brother is so crazy that he doesn't even look like himself.

Maybe Herzog was not dead. What he and Nono saw that day in the temporary Nibelungen underground of Genji Heavy Industry was just the insignificant corpse that the old fox used to confuse the audience, the one who escaped from the unknown port. The evil ghost was still hiding in the shadows, grinding his teeth and sucking blood, and awakened Kazama Ruri's personality, completely degenerating Minamoto into a demon who only knew how to kill.

Or maybe Herzog is dead, but Minamoto Girl has not been able to successfully suppress or even defeat the soul named Kazama Ruri in his body. In short, the evil ghost has taken over the body of the mountain boy and is quietly watching the world. .

He thought of the crow again. After this guy dies, Yasha will be very lonely. They have always been inseparable.

——

The strong wind roared past the uninhabited coast with ice slag and gravel. The rocks stretched like canine teeth along the flood dike. The huge steel monster in the distance was making a deafening roar to cover up the howling of the wind.

Those were three 100,000-ton Aframax tankers that smashed the surging waves in the strong wind!

The owners of these ships actually set up barbed wire mesh as thick as fingers on the deck. That thing was supposed to be used in a battlefield where two countries confronted each other. The defenders would set up dense iron nets to stop the overwhelming infantry charge of the attackers, but they were actually placed on the edge of the deck at this time, as if the ship owners were worried that something would attack them from the sea.

The men in black holding assault rifles and submachine guns had stern faces. They patrolled in the strong wind and put up the high collars of their winter clothes.

Caesar and Chu Zihang were undergoing a full-body examination from the Kassel Medical Department. This was a necessary step before entering the submersible. After all, they might need to face the extreme environment of the abyss. Now ensuring that their bodies were safe would ensure that the burden on their bodies would not crush them when walking in the abyss.

Chu Zihang was putting on a coat over his naked upper body. His granite-hard muscles were looming in the shadows. He looked up through the narrow porthole at the sky above his head. It was pitch black. The xenon headlights of the lighthouses on the tanker were rotating and cutting, and the light spots seemed to be directly printed on the clouds, and the clouds were so low that they seemed to be pressing on his head.

He walked out of the cabin and came to the deck. Everyone around him was in a hurry, and the coastline was getting farther and farther away, until finally they even completely sailed into the thick fog rising from the sea.

However, these tankers are all modified big guys. Even without the help of navigation instruments, they can rush around in deep waters.

"Are you nervous?" Susie, wearing a black combat uniform and carrying a huge gun that was out of proportion to her body, leaned against the cabin door and raised her eyebrows at Chu Zihang.

Chu Zihang shook his head and stood beside Susie.

There were also snowflakes floating on the deck, but Chu Zihang didn't feel cold. He glanced around and saw the huge cabin as high as a three-story building and the towering bridge.

Multiple cranes were carrying huge torpedo tubes from one side to the other. They were obviously the storm torpedoes provided by the Equipment Department.

The Deliaste was currently stored on the tanker in the middle. The Kassel Academy spent a long time modifying these huge vehicles. They have completely become unsinkable fortresses at sea.

PS: I can't do it today. I'll post 6,000 words tomorrow. I'm a bit tired. Also, please give me a monthly ticket.
