Chapter 527
Els sat limply on the sofa, staring blankly at the opposite staff.

In the past two hours, he had just experienced the most incredible, terrifying, and bizarre thing in his life.

All 13 workers died in just a few minutes, and even one of them died right in front of him.

And this is not just the full picture of the impact he has received, in fact, what makes him feel like hell in daylight is that with the death of those workers, the crops around the workers are also withering.

Ayers watched the once lush, fruit-laden corn stalks turn yellow, fall over, and then dry up with astonishing speed, as if years had passed in an instant.

"That's the devil's restricted area. Only the devil has such power."

Els murmured.

The staff on the opposite side sighed helplessly, and then said:
"Mr. Ayrs, I think we've explained it many times, that it's not a devil—of course, you're not wrong if you're talking about a 'devil' in the abstract."

"There is an entropy increase jump area where the adjacent dimension invades. In that area, all the energy is drained almost instantly."

"That's why your workers die of heart failure, and that's why your crops die."

Ayers glanced blankly at the staff, his mood has not completely calmed down, but after all he is a highly educated person, and in the face of the other party's convincing theoretical basis, he has also changed a little bit from the kind of "being dominated by the devil" ” broke free from the fear.

After taking a deep breath, Els controlled his trembling hands and asked:
"How should I do?"

"What to do? Uh... the insurance company will compensate you for your loss, and your workers are all covered, right? This accident has nothing to do with you, in fact, it could happen to anyone"

Els looked at the opposite staff member in disbelief. The contemptuous attitude of the other party made him not know what expression to use to deal with it for a while. After a while, his expression suddenly became violent.

"I'm talking about what we should do! Yes! Neighboring Dimensions invaded! They killed people! But we don't even know what to do! Now you tell me, what should we do!"

He said "what to do" several times in a row, and the staff frowned and waved their hands, and replied:

"Mr. Els, I can understand the current mood, but what do you hope we can do?"

"No one can do anything about it. This kind of thing happens in every corner of the world. It's not just you. In this week, we have collected more than 40 cases of injuries caused by the invasion of adjacent dimensions --- of course , Your accident is the most casualty of all accidents."

"But, that doesn't change the nature of the matter -- it's like being struck by lightning from the sky, can you expect us to do something about the lightning?"

Els was dumbfounded for a long time, and the other party's logic made him completely unable to refute.

Yes, just like what he said, this incident can be classified as a "natural disaster". Under the background of the invasion of adjacent dimensions, anyone may suffer losses due to such a "natural disaster".

However, is it because of this nature that humans really do nothing?

Do you just watch your compatriots die?
-
Yeah, hasn't this country always been like this?

In those past disasters, the authorities seemed to just watch with a cold eye, and the troops and soldiers they sent were only to maintain order, not to solve the problem.

Thinking of this, Els suddenly felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

"So, in that case, why did you come to me?"

Seeing Els regain his composure, the staff nodded in satisfaction and replied:
"You know, the research on the adjacent dimension is a topic we have been carrying out, and now, after the actual invasion of the adjacent dimension occurred, we should obviously conduct in-depth research on the scene where the invasion occurred."

"So, what we want to do is simple: we're going to expropriate your land and build a temporary research center."

"We will pay a fair price, you can rest assured of that."

"only this?"

"Yes, only this. If you want, you can participate in our research project. We need first-hand witness information. You can describe to us what you saw at the time."

"For example, did you see an explosion, did you see an unusual flash of light, did you see an object that you couldn't understand...etc."

"This will help us determine how adjacent-dimensional channels are established."

"What about the 13 workers?"

Els asked suddenly.

"Workers? Well, someone will come to do the aftermath, maybe the police department here"

"Maybe?"

Els sneered, then stood up abruptly.

"Now, get out of my room."

"Until you come up with a plan to deal with the aftermath, I will not accept any cooperation, and I will not let you build anything else on my land!"

"Mr. Els, please think about it, what we are going to do has the potential to save the whole world"

"Shut up your bullshit!"

Els yelled angrily.

"You don't care about the world at all, 13 lives are gone, you don't care at all, you don't even care where their bodies are during this whole conversation!"

"With such a performance, how can I trust you? Get out, get out!"

"If you don't want to go by yourself, let my gun help you!"

Seeing the black muzzle of the gun in his wife's hand behind Els, the staff member shook his head helplessly, then got up and walked out of the room.

He couldn't understand why Els suddenly lost control of his emotions—according to intelligence, those workers were just workers, and there was a natural class gap between Els and them, and it was almost impossible for them to become friends.

Is the information wrong?

He shook his head, turned and got into the car.

The temporary research institute must be built. If I can't talk to Els, there will always be someone else who can talk to him. Today, my work is over-it's time to get off work and have a drink.

After sending away the staff member who claimed to be from the "Healey Organization" and from the national laboratory, Ayers silently returned to the room and changed his clothes. The bodies of the 13 workers were probably still lying in the cornfield, although he had already I called the police, but the police still need a long time to collect evidence and analyze the scene, and the work of notifying the family members may not have started yet.

And I have the address of each of them in my hand, maybe this matter should be done by myself.

Els didn't know why he had this idea. Before today, he had always been an indifferent person—or, in other words, he was a person who knew his position extremely well.

He knew that he couldn't be friends with those workers, so he rationally kept a distance from them, but now, everything has changed.

Just one step away, he would also die in that terrifying restricted zone. It was the worker named Neil who waved at him desperately, preventing him from entering the death zone.

At the beginning, Els was only moved by this move, but slowly, as he calmed down and saw the essence of all this more and more clearly, he suddenly understood one thing. matter.

Under the adjacent dimension crisis, no one is special.

The fortress can't stop the entropy increase and jump, and money and status can't save a person who has been caught in the death zone. I am no different from them.

He silently lit a cigarette, took the gun from his wife and stuck it in his waist, then raised his legs and walked out the door, but just as he was about to open the door, a man's voice suddenly came from outside .

"Is Els there?"

"Didn't I tell you to go away?"

Els pulled out his pistol angrily, opened the door, and put the gun on the forehead of the man outside the door.

But to his surprise, the man opposite did not show any panic at all.

He just looked directly into Els' eyes, and said in a relaxed tone:

"It seems you mistook me for someone else."

"who are you?"

Els asked suspiciously, his muzzle did not move a single point.

"Me? You don't need to know who I am for now."

"But, I need your help."

"There are quite a few people who need my help today, and there are 13 family members who need my help."

"We have already done this for you. Now, can we talk about my affairs?"

Els looked at the other party in surprise, and then asked:
"Who the hell are you?"

"Okay. It's okay to tell you, we are, 'Ark'."
