Chapter 1239 The Island Of Ignorance

When Songjia entered the art museum, she almost lost her balance when she saw the scene inside.

Although she didnt work in art, she had come here several times with her cla.s.smates when she was free. This art museum had a rich collection and a unique architectural style, so it had always been popular among visitors, she liked it, too.

However, she didnt expect that when she entered the museum this time, it would turn into a b.l.o.o.d.y slaughterhouse. There were corpses all over the floor, and blood and brains splattered everywhere. Many of the artworks had been destroyed, the paintings that were worth more than a million dollars fell to the ground, and the sculptures were shattered into pieces..

The only people who could still stand in the exhibition hall on the first floor were Olai and Alicia. They supported each other and slowly moved toward the stairs.

These these people were killed by you guys?

Song Jia was shocked. She answered Zhang Hengs call and rushed in from the outside. At the moment, she didnt know what had happened inside. Seeing the scene before her.., she thought that the people here had been killed by the two Inuit. After all, they looked like they had just fought a b.l.o.o.d.y battle.

However, Alicia shook her head, No, they were all killed by your Er, employer. Actually, we didnt help much. He saved us. He and the owner of this museum are on the second floor now. Lets go up together.

Oh, okay, okay.

Song Jia carefully avoided the puddle of blood on the floor. Then, she followed Olai and song Jia Up the stairs to the directors office on the second floor.

The door wasnt locked. Song Jia saw a lame man sitting on a sofa while Zhang Heng sat behind the desk writing something on the parchment with his blood. When he saw song Jia Walk in, he nodded at her, Youre just in time. Help me with the translation. I need to have a good chat with Mr. Sachus.

Zhang Heng pointed at the man on the sofa as he spoke.

The latter probably knew that it was impossible for him to escape, so he calmed himself down. Seeing song Jia looking at him, he even smiled at the girl. It had to be said that he had not been a museum owner for nothing these past ten years, his smile looked gentle and gentle.

However, song Jia ignored him. Instead, she pulled Zhang Heng to the side and hurriedly said, Whats going on? Who are those people down there? Why did you kill them? Oh My G.o.d, how many people did you kill this time?

Thirty-seven, but I was only defending myself and saving people,Zhang Heng said. The police wont believe that you killed thirty-seven people for the sake of defending yourself and saving people,song Jia said anxiously. Are you crazy? Do you know how much trouble this will cause you?

Relax. As long as we keep our mouths shut, I dont think the police will care about this,Zhang Heng said calmly. How is that possible? Even if we dont tell anyone, its impossible for the police to not notice the disappearance of 37 people. Thats true for ordinary people, but this group is different. They clearly belong to some mysterious sect. Im afraid the police dont even know of their existence,Zhang Heng said.

How do you know?

Im just about to confirm it with their commander.

Where is he?

Hes on the sofa.

After hearing that, song Jia turned her gaze back to the limping man on the sofa. She took a deep breath and calmed herself down before turning to Zhang Heng, Ill help you with the last translation. You Dont know what you want to do, but its too dangerous to be with you. Weve only met for less than half a day, but there have already been two consecutive battles. Furthermore, Ive seen more corpses than Ive ever seen in my life. I dont know what else will happen if I follow you. Dont worry, Im the one who broke the contract first. I Dont want my salary anymore. Zhang Heng was noncommittal. He only said, Youll do the translation for me first. Well talk later.

Song Jia didnt say anything else. She walked over to the crippled man.

The latter raised his eyebrows and said with interest, Are you done discussing? What do you plan to do with me?

Im just a translator,song Jia said. I dont want to get involved in your mess.

Im sorry,the lame man touched his chin. Im afraid youll be involved whether you like it or not. In fact, everyone on the island cant escape.

You dont have to threaten me. Im not the one who decides your fate,song Jia said. First question, who are you people?

The lame man was about to answer, but he was interrupted by song Jia, Let me remind you, youd better tell us the truth. If youre lying, well find out right away, and then youll have to suffer unnecessarily.

Is it because of this ring?The crippled man raised his right hand. Zhang Heng had placed a copper ring there when he had entered the room, and he had even cut off his arm to take some blood, You two arent in cahoots with the two Inuit, are you? I know a thing or two about shamanism. As far as I know, they dont have the means to do so.

Just answer the questions honestly. Dont ask questions,Songjia warned again.

Interesting. I didnt expect such a lively day to come in such a remote place like Greenland,the crippled man muttered. He then leaned his back against the sofa, Ask away. Since Im already in your hands, of course Ill cooperate with you. But I advise you not to have high expectations of me. For some reason, I dont have much information. Ive been avoiding further contact with those fanatics all these years.

Why?

Because we are living on an island called ignorance, surrounded by a vast black ocean. Some of us are brave enough to set sail and explore the mysteries of the world. The results they have achieved have promoted the development of human civilization. However, one day, when those isolated scientific knowledge is pieced together, it will reveal the most terrifying truth of this world.

What truth?

We should never know, because it will bring endless fear and madness, the crippled man said solemnly. His expression did not look like he was joking.., even though the words coming out of his mouth sounded ridiculous.

After a pause, he added, Im different from those fanatics downstairs, but its precisely because of this that Ive been living especially hard all these years. Im really trying to persuade you with good intentions. If you dont want to end up in my current situation, then you should leave this place while theres still time.
