Those Classmates who Suddenly Disappeared-Chapter 708: It’s X Again

"Alright, I’m going all out today, and I’ll satisfy your curiosity." Under everyone’s gaze, Qiao Ya cleared his throat and then continued: "The three of us come from an organization named Organization X, I only know who my direct superior is, but as for who runs the operation, the organizational structure, and the location of the organization’s base, I’m completely in the dark."

Hearing this, Lu Yi seemed a little disappointed: "So in other words, you guys are essentially the lowest tier of the organization, with rather low status."

"Yes, our status is so low it’s pitiful." Ouyang Jin’s words were a bit harsh, hurting Dong Ni’s pride. Dong Ni became angry: "You can listen, but don’t belittle us. If you do, then we won’t continue."

Lu Yi and Ouyang Jin quickly apologized, which allowed Qiao Ya to continue: "All I know is that Organization X is very large, with members spread around the world. They are also researching some matters unknown to the public. These three researchers behind me are simply the ones Organization X wanted to capture. As for what they’re researching, we didn’t dare ask too much, that’s all there is to it." ƒreewebɳovel.com

"Alright, I understand now." Su Hui immediately walked towards them and said sternly, "No matter who you are, and how valuable your research is, if you wish to leave this place, please tell us everything."

One of the researchers replied directly, "Fine, we’ll tell you everything, but you also have to tell us how you managed to find this place."

"Huh!" Everyone was puzzled. The expectations in the researcher’s eyes, as they looked at Gu Fan and his companions, were filled with hope, as if they were waiting for them to reveal some important information.

Su Lei was worried, "Is it really okay for us to tell them everything?"

To this, Qiao Ya was dismissive, "In special times, we shouldn’t worry too much about such things. Also, I’m rather interested in what the organization is actually up to."

Dong Ni nodded, "Exactly, we should also get to know some of the secrets."

Seeing the anxious looks of the researchers, Gu Fan was a bit troubled, "It’s better if you tell us what you know first, the more detailed, the better."

The three researchers seemed to be weighing up the pros and cons, visibly awkward.

Lin Xi sympathized, "We don’t mean to pressure you, we just don’t want our actions to be influenced by those we cannot trust. We want to help you leave, but you also have to assure us that you won’t harm us."

"Alright, we’ll tell you." The three researchers finally decided to let out their secret. They were from a science laboratory that gathered many top researchers around the world, and their research was aimed at the ancient Super Civilization.

Having heard the identities of these three researchers, everyone was dumbfounded. Gu Fan didn’t expect that besides them, there were others in this world who knew about the ancient Super Civilization.

In actuality, remnants of the ancient Super Civilization can be found all around the world. These three researchers had discovered one of these remnants, established a laboratory, and dedicated their work to studying the technologies of the ancient Super Civilization, including the space-time door.

Upon hearing the term "space-time door", everyone was stunned and somewhat incredulous. Surely the technology of the ancient Super Civilization couldn’t have advanced to such an extent?

The three researchers conveyed that they indeed had discovered the space-time door. However, the key to unlock this door was somewhere in the Triangle Sea Area. Despite searching for most of their lives, they hadn’t found it. Unexpectedly though, a twist of fate had led them here.

At first, they felt miserable being kidnapped and resented the pirates. However, a greater enemy appeared - Qian Feng.

Seeing the pirates obediently following orders, the researchers began to sympathize with them.

Later, when they saw an island rise from the sea, they immediately recognized it as the place they had been tirelessly seeking. They were overjoyed and yearned to explore the island.

Having heard these introductions, Lu Yi was taken aback and said: "In that case, do you three feel that being kidnapped was a good thing or a bad thing?"

One researcher stated his belief: "Perhaps it was fate. Knowing that we could not find this place by our own means, it threw us a curveball. But I’m truly curious, how did you all find this place..."

"Alright, since you’ve told us so much, I will also tell you something related." Just as Gu Fan started speaking, Su Hui hinted to him not to say too much. However, Gu Fan seemed not to notice.

Gu Fan continued, "In fact, my family members have gone missing in the Triangle Sea Area. We came here to look for them and later found out that they’d been taken by the Wandering Sea Ghosts. Based on the appearance patterns of the mist and the Wandering Sea Ghosts, we had a clash with the Wandering Sea Ghosts and traced their path to find this island."

"Oh, I see." Qiao Ya, Dong Ni, and the three researchers reluctantly accepted this explanation.

Now that everyone has exchanged so much information, establishing a basis of trust, everyone understood that each party was holding back and there was certainly much more left unsaid.

Gu Fan was not bothered. Firstly, knowing so much information was already enough. Secondly, he had made up everything and given nothing away. Thirdly, he thought that Organization X was just a haphazard name to deceive others.

"Wait, Organization X...," Gu Fan paused, recalling a mysterious family Lisa had mentioned before. The family had no surname, only a code: the X family. Could there be a connection between the two?

"Could it be such a coincidence? Destiny Stone, what kind of mission are you preparing for me?" Gu Fan had a bad feeling that more trouble would come after they left the island. However, looking at the bright side, since the Destiny Stone had made such arrangements, there was a great chance of safely leaving the island.

What concerned Gu Fan most was the so-called ’space-time door’ of the Ancient Super Civilization mentioned by the three researchers. Since they had mentioned the Ancient Super Civilization, the ’space-time door’ probably really did exist. Perhaps the technology was truly that advanced?

Nevertheless, Gu Fan began to shift his focus on how to leave the island. He had a daring plan to check if the large wooden ship was truly gone, while gathering people along the way. Best case scenario, gather Qian Feng and the boss as well, to prepare for any potential crisis.

If escaping on the large wooden boat was impossible, then they would all take control of the control room and maneuver the island to rise above sea level. Gu Fan believed that with the boss and Qian Feng, they could withstand wave after wave of attacks, giving him enough time to bring the island to the surface.
