Alien Relic Hunter

Chapter 467 Secret Language
"Leave... the... bed..."

The first time Ke Lan saw this secret phrase was on the shell of the diving cabin of the Pioneer icebreaker; the second time, it was in the mission log of Sergeant Collins on the mysterious deserted island, and this phrase It was recorded on paper together with the stone pillar carved with the totem of the giant eye under the sea...

There is also the password code of the black box of the 776 special team, which is also the same sentence.

But why did this sentence appear on the note in Alfonso Gonzalez Sanchez's hand?
It has been 776 years since the 48 special team disappeared... No, it should have been No.40 nine years ago, a full half a century has passed.

To say that this sentence appeared inside the shell of the submersible is because there is an inseparable connection between the city under the sea and that mysterious deserted island. What's the matter?

The Molten Mining Area and the city under the sea are almost at the two ends of Alpha Star, and the straight-line distance on the surface is more than [-] kilometers—not to mention, this tunnel should belong to the higher civilization that built "Yagunaktor", There is no trace of Alpha civilization left here...

Ke Lan felt a little confused.

Besides, there was another discovery that puzzled him even more.

"Leave the bed" he always thought that this "bed" did not refer to the literal meaning of "bed", because in English, besides referring to the bed used to sleep, "bed" also has "river bed", " Interpretations such as "sea bed" and "nursery" can even be understood as extended meanings such as having sex and "reproductive behavior" when they are used as transitive verbs.

Ke Lan once thought it was a warning, and the bed in it referred to the "hatchery" in the abyss - in the depths of the hatchery, there was a huge fusion body dormant, if it hadn't been for that encounter A group of giant nautiluses attached to the cliff, he may have already become the nourishment of the fusion body.

If you understand it this way, there seems to be no problem. The danger level of the hatchery is indeed very high. The comprehensive strength of the fusion body may have approached the level of the prehistoric species. With the ability of individual human beings, there is no way to compete with it.

The problem is, when this sentence is translated into Spanish, this explanation is a bit untenable.

In Spanish, "Cama" is rarely used to refer to things like "sea bed" or "nursery". In addition to the most commonly used meaning of "bed", it also has a meaning of "nest".

"Nest, litter, habitat of an animal... can also be used as a quantifier, e.g. 'litter of young'..."

It seems correct to say that the hatchery is the habitat of the fusion body, but when the words "bed" in English and "Cama" in Spanish overlap, only "Bed" is such an interpretation.

Moreover, combined with the previous clues - the 776 special team did not carry diving equipment, so naturally they could not go deep into the seabed to get close to the abyss hatchery, let alone discover the monster lurking in the hatchery... Take ten thousand steps back In other words, even if they really found the fusion body, it would be impossible for Ke Lan to find their bones in the cave.

Could it be that the "bed" in this secret phrase really refers to a bed for sleeping?
"Get away from that bed?"

What the hell does this mean?A proverb for those who have difficulty getting out of bed?
No one is so humorous that at the last moment of his life, he still wants to make a joke with the world, right?And... more than one person did this.

This must be a very important secret phrase, but unfortunately, Ke Lan couldn't understand its meaning.

"What do you mean by this sentence, Ke Lan?" The Hound urged from the side, "You can't understand it, can you?"

"I really can't read it. But I can translate it into English." Ke Lan said.

"What are you talking about? How do you translate if you can't read?" The hound was at a loss.

"Leave the bed..." Ke Lan read silently.

"What? Why leave..." Before the hound could react to what Ke Lan said, he heard a "chuckle" from behind, and Akira Asano, who had been insignificant along the way, had already pulled his sword out of its sheath Out.

And at this time, the hound finally came to his senses, and the expression on his face suddenly became extremely exciting: "This...is that sentence written on this guy's note?!"

"Leave the bed, stay away from that bed. If I remember correctly, the last time it appeared was in the diving cabin salvaged from the Pioneer icebreaker, right?" Aya Breya walked over with a look on her face. Seriously, "Our people didn't find these words when they checked the diving cabin for the first time. After the first batch of security agents left, you and first officer Caroline were attacked by black skeletons in the ninth cargo hold." , and found the words engraved on the inside of the diving chamber. According to the Soma Consortium and your confession, you think these words were engraved on the black skeleton, right?"

"Yes." Ke Lan didn't deny it. The diving chamber was transported away by the Security Bureau in the end, and they would naturally find out the words engraved on the inner wall. He didn't need to hide it at all.

"But this is not the first time this sentence has appeared." Ke Lan said again.

"Could it have appeared in other places?" Aya asked.

"Based on our time, the diving cabin is indeed the place where this sentence was first discovered, but from the perspective of the overall timeline, this sentence should have appeared as early as 49 years ago, in the 776 special team, Sergeant Collins in the diary."

"What?" Aya's expression changed a little.

The diary mixed in a pile of antique equipment, when Ke Lan was rescued, the pile of things had already been checked by the security bureau agents who were placed inside the crew, but they only saw a messy pile of diaries. Lines, neither the stone pillar portrait nor the phrase "I AM SORRY" and secret words were found.

(Here, there is a small bug in the previous chapter. The black box found in the cave was lost in the water. Only Collins’ mission log was brought on board. I have corrected the previous bug.)
"When I read it for the first time, it was there, but when I checked the diary after I recovered from my injury, I found that many pages were missing...including the page on which this sentence was written." Ke Rand replied.

"When you were injured, the pile of things was kept by our own people. Although many people saw that log, I can guarantee that absolutely no one has the opportunity to tear off the pages." The Hound said immediately.

"I know." Ke Lan nodded, "I checked the traces where the pages fell off, and it doesn't look like they were torn off by someone. Those pages of the diary may have been soaked in seawater and then fell off by themselves—I When I escaped from the submarine cave, the situation was very urgent, and I didn’t have time to put it in the waterproof bag.”

"Then why didn't you report this before?"

"You didn't even ask... Oh, by the way, the people from your security bureau didn't come to me at all. The person who came to me was Lieutenant General Maginot, who represented the military, but he didn't mention anything inscribed on the diving board at all. The secret language inside the cabin and Collins’ log, I thought that this information was irrelevant to you.” Ke Lan evaded.
