Chapter 550: Catacombs
Before Xia Ping'an arrived at the cemetery near the catacombs in the 14th arrondissement in southern Paris, the agile God of Fortune boy had already arrived near the Chateau de Boulogne in the west of Paris in a flash of his body.
Surrounding the Chateau de Boulogne is the lush Forest of Boulogne. Just next to the Chateau Boulogne is the Seine River, and several docks and piers can be seen nearby.
The Bois de Boulogne has beautiful scenery, and you can see tree-lined avenues and lakes everywhere. It is quiet and quiet. Water birds can be seen inhabiting it, and from time to time you can see hares and deer emerging from the forest park.
It's just that this huge area is extremely quiet even during the day, with almost no outsiders disturbing it. In Paris, where food is in short supply, no one seems to think of coming here to hunt some animals or find some wild vegetables.
Just at the entrance to the forest, there is a warning sign. There are scary warnings written in several words on the sign. There is a skull sign on the sign, and below the sign is a line saying: You are about to enter the sphere of influence of the French Summoners Alliance, rashly
If you break in, you may be shot!
In addition to these scary warning signs, on the outskirts of the Bois de Boulogne, armed men with guns can also be seen patrolling around in twos and threes. This posture can already make ordinary people stay away and not dare to enter rashly.
The lucky boy who came here was extremely naughty and happy. After wandering around several armed patrols, the lucky boy, who found nothing unusual, rode on a deer in the forest. The deer ran and passed through half the cloth.
Luo Nie Forest, and then the God of Fortune boy grabbed the foot of an egret, and the egret took him to fly in a small circle over the forest.
When the boy, the God of Fortune, released his grip on the egret's feet and fell from the sky, he was already standing inside the Chateau de Boulogne.
Mr. Curie said that Chateau Boulogne is the headquarters of the French Summoners' Alliance. Logically speaking, it should be very lively with many summoners. But when the lucky boy came here, he found that the castle was extremely deserted, except for
Apart from a few armed men with guns patrolling the gates and walls of Chateau Boulogne, the entire castle seemed empty, with almost no one in sight.
Not only was the castle empty, even the basement and dungeon of the castle were as clean as if a dog had licked them, with not a single hair in sight.
As for the Bourget-Monouly, the lucky boy went around the whole castle and didn't see any of them. Only in an obviously luxurious office, the lucky boy saw a few photos and several pictures of the Bourget-Monouly.
Trophies and stuff like that.
Some of the gorgeous bedrooms in the castle are deserted and the doors are locked, and it doesn't look like anyone lives here at all.
There are also some secret training rooms, attics, secret passages, etc. in the castle. After the search by the God of Fortune, they were all revealed, but nothing of value was found.
There is a very secret underground secret passage in the Chateau de Boulogne. After the lucky boy entered the underground secret passage a few hundred meters, the secret passage led to an ancient underground tunnel, which was filled with dusty
Spider silk, and on both sides of the tunnel, there are white bones wearing armor, which looks full of vicissitudes of life, at least hundreds of miles of history.
The God of Fortune boy walked into the tunnel again and saw coffins one after another. The bones in the coffins and the clothes on the bones were all rotten.
The deeper you go into the tunnel, the more and more rotten corpses there are. On both sides of the tunnel, there are bone walls built with human skulls. This place is like a world of the undead and skeletons. When ordinary people come here, they may not be able to survive.
You will be suffocated in seconds.
Further forward, in the tunnel filled with bones, there began to be more and more forked roads, and some places had even collapsed. Even with the ability of the lucky boy, he could not navigate the long, maze-like tunnel for a while.
come over.
Very strange!
Apart from some small minions guarding the Castle of Boulogne, there is no summoner!
This situation is a bit abnormal!
The entire Castle of Boulogne exudes an indescribable strangeness.
The tunnel connected to the secret passage under the Chateau de Boulogne, filled with the bones of the dead, should be part of the ancient Paris catacombs.
If Bourget-Monouly is a member of the Devil's Eye, and those nuclear materials were indeed transported to Chateau Boulogne, and there is a tunnel leading to the Paris Catacombs from Boulogne, then what exactly does the Devil's Eye want to do?
Xia Pingan felt that he had vaguely grasped something, and the answer seemed to be ready to come out. Xia Pingan's heart beat violently several times.
…
In the car, Xia Pingan frowned slightly and looked at Mr. Curie.
"Mr. Curie, when was the last time you met Bourget-Monouly?"
"Ah, since the government evacuated from Paris, Bourget-Mainouly has rarely been seen in public, but the last time we met was last week. The morning after we met in the restaurant, I went to the Chateau Boulogne in person.
I visited him and asked him to help us find nuclear materials!" Mr. Curie looked at Xia Pingan curiously, "Why, is there any problem?"
Xia Pingan smiled slightly and said, "Nothing, I just want to ask!"
…
More than half an hour later, Xia Pingan and Mr. Curie had arrived at the cemetery near the catacombs in the 14th arrondissement in the south of Paris.
This cemetery is located on a small slope on the outskirts of the city. The slope is planted with pine trees and is surrounded by green trees. Standing on the slope where the cemetery is located, you can also see an entrance to the Paris Catacombs not far away.
Two years ago, the Paris Catacombs were still open to tourists as a tourist attraction. But now, although the entrance to the Catacombs is still open, it is somewhat deserted and the door has been closed. No Parisian would think about it.
Go take a look.
In a place like a cemetery, even if you come here in broad daylight, you will feel a sense of gloom lingering here. However, compared to the underground catacombs not far away, the cemetery on the hillside can be considered sunny and the scenery is unique.
It is estimated that not many people know that the so-called romantic capital of Paris is built on a huge cemetery. The catacombs in Paris are a huge underground project. The length of the tomb passages in the catacombs is more than 320 kilometers. Within the tomb passages
, where more than 6 million French skeletons are piled up.
The plague hundreds of years ago turned the city of Paris into a huge cemetery. The whole city was full of buried corpses. In the end, the government had no choice but to dig underground catacombs to place the bones of the dead.
The more they accumulated, the longer the tunnels were dug. Slowly, the underground tomb became a forbidden area for strangers. There were mountains of bones inside, piled up into walls, which made people shudder. Even when it was later opened as a tourist attraction, the open area
, in fact, it is less than one percent of the entire catacombs.
The Popular Front had people guarding the cemetery.
With the arrival of Mr. Curie, the people guarding here quickly took the two of them to several graves with traces of excavation. Wearing masks, they opened the coffins in the graves.
As soon as the coffin was opened, the pungent corpse odor rushed straight out.
The smell made Mr. Li couldn't help covering his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, took two steps back, and quickly avoided it.
Only Xia Pingan, with a calm expression on his face, still stood beside the coffin, squinting his eyes and staring at the situation in the tomb. As long as he was a summoner who had seen the Devil's Eye sacrifice, he could master the summoning of the Requiem Banner.
Teachers will no longer think that there are horrible corpses in the world.
The corpse in the coffin has been highly decomposed, but from the decomposed corpse, you can still see some signs of death by radiation. The hair of the corpse has completely fallen off, and part of the skin has also fallen off. This situation occurs before the death of the corpse.
There is no way to fake it on a corpse.
At Mr. Curie's signal, a person from the Popular Front wearing anti-epidemic clothing jumped into the grave pit with a radiation monitoring instrument, and in front of Xia Pingan, used the radiation monitor to approach the corpse for monitoring.
"Beep, beep, beep..." The reading on the detector suddenly surged, and the detector started to alarm.
Therefore, there is no doubt that the people in the tomb died after suffering severe radiation. Even the corpses still have excessive levels of radiation.
