Chapter 1929: Us
"Isn't this Sunken Dragon Pass?"
Zhao Zhengbin recognized it immediately as the Sunken Dragon Pass that the second team had passed through before, speaking out in surprise.
At this moment, the voice from the screen also appeared.
"Dear viewers, due to damage to our original aircraft, we waited for rescue on the wilderness for two hours... Fortunately, Sunken Dragon Pass dispatched an aircraft to pick us up, and now we've finally returned to Great Xia!"
The reporter sat by the cabin window, looking somewhat excited.
"Next, I have some good news to share with everyone. Since the domestic situation is quite severe and various shelters are about to close, we won't have time to enter the shelters with everyone. However, Sunken Dragon Pass has agreed to temporarily shelter us, so we're currently en route to the interior of Sunken Dragon Pass!
After application, Sunken Dragon Pass has permitted us to continue our broadcast within the base. The secrets of this super fortress standing on the sea will be revealed by us!"
Hearing this, numerous comments floated across the screen.
【Sunken Dragon Pass? Is that the real name of the Sunken Dragon Base? Sounds so majestic】
【I wonder if a dragon really sank inside Sunken Dragon Pass?】
【If Sunken Dragon Pass even has god corpses, it wouldn't be strange if a dragon sank there】
【Can we really see inside Sunken Dragon Pass!? Does that mean we might encounter that mysterious Night Watch who controls the weather?】
【This should be one of the Night Watch bases. Already looking forward to it】
【……】
So they're entering Sunken Dragon Pass... No wonder the popularity is rising so fast.
Zhao Zhengbin also became interested. Just as he was about to find a quiet place to watch the livestream, the personnel debugging the large screen in the hall nodded.
The next moment, the dark screen lit up with an old-fashioned startup sound, attracting some people's attention. After the network icon spun for a moment, the scene from Zhao Zhengbin's phone appeared simultaneously on the screen.
Zhao Zhengbin was stunned, then reacted.
They connected this big screen to the internet?
The others who had also been watching the exploration team's livestream immediately became interested, putting down their phones and gathering around the screen. Watching the livestream on this super large screen was much more convenient than on a tiny phone.
But Zhao Zhengbin hesitated for a moment and still kept his phone screen. The reason was simple—the projected big screen couldn't show the livestream comments...
A livestream without comments has no soul. At least, that's what Zhao Zhengbin thought.
Not just this big screen, screens in other shelters were also connected to the internet by the staff. After the residents voted by raising their hands, most began projecting the content of the Pioneer livestream room. In this boring underground shelter, this sudden entertainment immediately attracted large crowds.
In the livestream, the helicopter slowly flew over Sunken Dragon Pass's outer wall,盘旋片刻 in the air, and carefully descended toward the inner wall's helipad in the swaying wind and rain.
As the cabin door opened, the exploration team members stepped off the aircraft one after another. The gale carried heavy rain that soaked their clothes. The reporter held a microphone in one hand and said loudly amid the howling wind:
"Everyone! We've successfully landed inside Sunken Dragon Pass! Next..."
Before he could finish, a gray six-winged figure descended from the sky. As the wings folded, Shen Qingzhu, draped in a Crimson Cloak, walked calmly toward a portal on one side of the helipad.
Seeing this, the exploration team members quickly followed!
As the safety light above the portal lit up, the heavy metal door slowly opened. Two Night Watch members in dark red cloaks walked out and solemnly saluted Shen Qingzhu.
"Mr. Shen, you've arrived."
"Are the Commander and others here yet?"
"They're still on their way. They'll be here shortly."
"Hmm." Shen Qingzhu nodded slightly, looking at the exploration team members behind him. "'Operation Winter is about to commence. The shelters in the country are about to close. Let them stay at Sunken Dragon Pass... Take them somewhere to rest. If anything happens later, make sure to protect their safety."
"Yes, sir!"
Just as Shen Qingzhu was about to leave, he seemed to remember something and added: "If they ask you some questions, you can answer them as long as they're not too sensitive."
The two Night Watch members exchanged a glance and nodded. "Understood."
After giving the instructions, Shen Qingzhu walked directly toward somewhere inside Sunken Dragon Pass, his figure disappearing into the wind and rain.
The two Night Watch members exchanged a few words. One of them temporarily left, while the other walked up to the exploration team members and smiled slightly.
"Hello, welcome to A-011 Sunken Dragon Pass. I'm a permanent Night Watch stationed here. My name is Yu Le."
The exploration team members' eyes immediately lit up!
Night Watch!
A living, breathing Night Watch standing right in front of them!
"Hello!" The reporter stepped forward, shaking his hand excitedly. "My name is Liao Chentao. Just call me Xiao Liao..."
"Mr. Liao is too polite." Yu Le glanced at the rain-soaked group and, toward the Sunken Dragon Pass beyond the door, made an inviting gesture. "You're the first ordinary citizens to enter Sunken Dragon Pass. Next, I'll take you to tour and introduce Sunken Dragon Pass. Please, this way."
"Good, good, good!"
The exploration team members completely forgot they had been standing in the rain the whole time. They had never been this excited. Entering Sunken Dragon Pass meant they would personally uncover the mysterious veil of the Night Watch in front of the public!
At this moment, the citizens watching from countless big screens also下意识 straightened up, their eyes filled with curiosity.
No matter how real the rumors online were, they were still just rumors online. What could be more real than actually interviewing a Night Watch?
"Can... can I ask you some questions?" The reporter couldn't contain himself as they walked.
"Sure." Yu Le smiled. "What do you want to ask?"
"Um... wait, there's too much I want to ask. Let me sort through them." The reporter's mind went blank for a moment but quickly recovered. He asked seriously, "Are the gods in mythology actually real?"
"Yes."
"Well... specifically which mythologies?"
"All of them." Yu Le answered calmly. "Greek mythology, Japanese mythology, Indian mythology, Norse mythology..."
"So many? Doesn't that mean there are gods everywhere outside Great Xia?" The reporter thought for a moment, puzzled. "But our three teams explored outside the country for so long. We've been to Japan and Greece and didn't see any divine kingdoms. We only encountered Vishnu from Indian mythology...
Where did all the other divine kingdoms go?"
Yu Le stopped walking and glanced at the reporter with an enigmatic smile. "You're quite good at asking questions..."
"What?" The reporter was confused.
"You can't find the other divine kingdoms because they've all been destroyed."
"Destroyed? Who could destroy so many divine kingdoms?"
Yu Le stretched out his hand and pointed to the ground beneath their feet.
"We."
