Chapter 688

As we all know, unlike its neighbor the Pacific Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean is prone to terrible extreme weather conditions, such as tropical storms and hurricanes, every time it enters June.

Including the east coast of America, the Caribbean islands and the West Bank of Europe, they will experience more than seven or eight tropical storms and hurricanes.

That is why there are far more ships sinking in the Atlantic than in other waters of the world.

While Zhang Cheng was constantly searching for and salvaging sunken ships in the surrounding areas, he suddenly heard an early warning notice issued by the meteorological center. It is said that a strong air flow has formed in the Atlantic basin and may develop into a deadly tropical storm at any time.

"Boss! We must return!" Ye Lianna "understood! I'll inform the captain of the salvage ship to adjust the course immediately."

Seeing that Zhang Cheng didn't insist on staying, ye Lianna was obviously relieved and quickly turned and walked out.

Not far away, MANSA, who was lying on the table carefully cleaning an original pistol, suddenly asked mindlessly, "why San Juan?"

"Of course, it's because Puerto Rico is relatively close and belongs to an autonomous state of the United States. It's the best choice in terms of distance and security environment. In addition, San Juan is a relatively developed seaport city in the Caribbean. At least the hotel will be very comfortable. Don't tell me you like living in places where you need to keep one eye open even when you sleep Dangerous place. "Zhang Chengli naturally gave the answer.

There is a famous saying in Central America, South America and the Caribbean that it is too far from heaven and too close to the United States.

Since the rise of Monroe Doctrine, the United States has regarded America as its absolute sphere of influence. It has carried out multiple economic, military and cultural infiltration and control over all independent countries from all aspects, and does not allow anyone to intervene.

The Cuban missile crisis is the best proof of this.

Between the endless greed of large American enterprises and consortia, and excluding Canada, the traditional ally in the north, no country in the Americas can get rid of the current situation of poverty and chaos.

Because only poverty and chaos, the decadent ruling class of these countries needs the intervention of powerful external forces and the support of a stable and powerful country at the critical moment.

Of course, the price is that the economy and public security are extremely poor. Drug lords and gangs in many places are even more arrogant than the police and the army. Murder is a classic reserved program every day.

"Shet! I admit you're right! It seems that San Juan is our best haven." MANSA burst out helplessly.

Through the news media, she has a general understanding of the public security situation in central and South American countries and understands how dangerous these countries are.

Take Mexico, a neighboring country in the south, for example. It is a nightmare. On average, more than 100000 unlucky people are kidnapped every year, and more than 200 people are kidnapped every day. It is appalling, including many rich and celebrities.

The most terrible thing is that most of these kidnapped wretches can't return to their relatives and friends alive, but will be killed and dissolved by the kidnappers.

Even Americans who are used to the occasional shooting around them can't stand such a terrible security environment.

"By the way! Has the identity of the statue been answered?" Zhang Cheng asked with interest.

When MANSA heard this sentence, she immediately put down her work, took out her mobile phone and called out some unclear black-and-white photos: "look for yourself! If you are right, the statue in your hand should be an ancient mural. The story depicted is a person. She is not a God, but a powerful Priestess."

"Priestess?!" Zhang Cheng raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"That's right! It's said that she once offered 3000 sacrifices to a God in a grand sacrificial ceremony, so she was given a powerful power and the form of half man and half snake. However, later, the priestess became more and more crazy and cruel, trying to replace the gods she once served, but she killed all the people in a city with a powerful power, the most important thing Finally, the God punished her and imprisoned her in a dark prison. The Incas were afraid of her power, so they later sacrificed her as a God... "MANSA explained briefly.

"Interesting! The struggle between the priestess and the gods?" Zhang Cheng's eyes revealed a trace of ponder.

From the power contained in the statue, the priestess has obviously crossed the boundaries of mortals in the use of magical energy. Even according to the current standards, she is also a top caster.

It is not surprising that such casters have the idea of replacing gods.

Look at the group of high-level mages on Phelan road. One is counted as one. They are all eager to solve the mystery of the strength and immortality of the gods.

But what surprised Zhang Cheng was why the God didn't kill the ambitious priestess, but just imprisoned her.

Can't kill?

Or does the other party have something that even the gods can't help prying?

More importantly, where were the female priests imprisoned?

The city of gold?

With questions beyond comprehension, Zhang Cheng carefully picked up the statue and said to himself in a voice that only he could hear: "if you can hear my voice and understand what I mean, give me a hint. Don't worry, I'm not your enemy, but your potential ally. At least we have a common goal in dealing with the gods."

The voice just fell!

The jewel like eyes of the statue suddenly twinkled!

Next second

Zhang Cheng felt a very weak consciousness and wanted to establish some kind of connection with himself.

But unfortunately, this awareness is too weak to convey even the most basic emotions, let alone complex information.
