Meng Yao found his acquaintance Korfei in the research institute and asked him to draw a tube of blood from the unconscious strange human for testing.

Then he found an empty room and threw the person in.

The two went to the hospital to see Catherine and Hong Kai. They were still in a coma, but their condition was relatively stable and they should wake up tomorrow.

"What happened to Shinjo and Fujimiya?"

"I don't know, but I hope everything is fine."

After a busy night, Meng Yao and Dagu were very tired. They found a room next to the room where the strange human was imprisoned and fell asleep.

the next day.

I don’t know what time it was, the sky outside was pitch black, and Meng Yao was awakened by Korfei and Dagu who broke in.

Korfe seemed to have not slept all night and was a little excited.

"The blood test results are in. It's human." He waved the list in his hand, "but microparticles of the Victory Crystal were detected in the blood."

"Honestly, it's a miracle that he's still alive with all this stuff in his veins."

Meng Yao couldn't understand the checklist, but after listening to Korfei's description, he roughly understood the identity of the strange human being.

"Victorians?"

He pulled out his phone: "Aix, are you familiar with the Victorians?"

【Not very familiar.】

Ultraman X thought for a moment and said, "That must be Xiang's tribe, but he's been mysteriously eroded by darkness. I don't know what's become of the Victorians living underground."

"Let's go check." Meng Yao yawned, "Is that person awake?"

Dagu nodded: "But he didn't say anything."

Meng Yao grabbed his hair and found some water in the room to rub his face. Then he patted Ke Er Fei's shoulder and said, "Go to bed. You've worked hard."

"I'm used to it. Where's Fujimiya?"

Meng Yao and Da Gu looked at each other. They had temporarily concealed Fujimiya's disappearance. Even if they told others, it would be useless. Unless the infrastructure of Alchemy Star was restored to normal, it would be difficult to help.

Meng Yao remembered the mine that Fujimiya mentioned.

Everything started from there.

He didn't answer Korfe's question, but simply asked, "We want to go to the mine and see where it is."

"It's at the site of the original Earth Core Organization."

Korfei did not notice Meng Yao's deliberate avoidance. In fact, after being busy for so long, his mind had become a little confused.

"Ruins?"

After Kuroda Megumi's death, the Geocentric Organization gradually disbanded. After all, Aix had been helping Alchemy Star with its affairs, so he had some understanding of what happened to the organization later.

He explained to Meng Yao: [After Fujimiya returned to take charge of the work, those members of the Earth Center Organization were gradually incorporated into the Alchemy Star Guard.]

Meng Yao nodded, this was also expected.

After Korfei left, Meng Yao and Dagu found some food and went to the room where the Victorian was imprisoned.

He was tied to a chair, his eyes glowing blue in the dim room.

It was a blue light similar to the Victory Crystal, and it had been staring at them since the two entered the room.

"Victorians?"

Meng Yao dragged over two chairs and spoke directly.

The man didn't answer.

Meng Yao and Dagu had no experience in interrogation, so he could only learn from what he saw in police and gangster movies and found a desk lamp to shine on the man.

"What happened underground? Ultraman Victory...how is he now?"

The man remained silent, but when he heard Ultraman Victory’s name, he lowered his head again.

Dagu was helpless: "He didn't say anything."

Meng Yao leaned back in his chair. "The underground people are always wary of the humans on the surface. It's not easy to pry open his mouth."

He thought of something and then asked the man in front of him, "People from underground won't come to the surface unless they have no other choice."

"Where are the rest of your tribe?"

When talking about his tribe, the man finally spoke: "My name is Ying."

He raised his head and looked against the light, seeming to see Meng Yao in the darkness.

"Don't even think about it. I won't tell you any information about my people."

Seeing the camp's tough attitude, Meng Yao smiled.

He knew he had found the opponent's weakness.

Meng Yao turned his head and deliberately said to Dagu beside him: "Since he won't tell me, let's lock him up here first."

"I believe his people will come to rescue him. Then we can set a trap and catch them all. I don't believe everyone is so stubborn."

After saying that, he tugged at Dagu's sleeve, and the two of them stood up and made to leave.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute!"

Ying cried out and struggled hard with the hemp ropes tied around his body.

Unfortunately, this was something Meng Yao had specially brought for him. It was as thick as his wrist, and Ying's struggles were useless except for making some noises.

"Don't even think about harming my people. I'll tell you everything you want to know!"

Meng Yao turned his back to the camp and smiled meaningfully. He turned around and sat down in his chair again: "Let's go back to the first question. What happened underground?"

When Ying saw Meng Yao turning around, he took a deep breath, calmed down, and organized his words.

It was a peaceful day like any other.

At some point, the number of Victory crystals began to increase rapidly, as if they were multiplying.

At first, all the Victorians were very happy, because crystal was the foundation of their underground world.

But later, people began to die inexplicably.

My companion who was fine yesterday suddenly died the next day.

"A lot of people died." Ying fell into sad memories. "Xiang was the first to discover the problem. He said there was something wrong with the Victory Crystal."

"But crystals are the foundation of our underground world. No one believes his words, and no one can believe them."

"So he went to investigate underground alone, but he never came back."

The remaining people lived cautiously, but the death toll continued to rise.

Until one day, after a violent earthquake, thick darkness surged out from the ground and flooded the entire Victorian city.

The bodies of the Victorians who were contaminated by darkness became strange and abnormal, and crystals grew in their bodies, which looked terrifying.

"We were all going to die, but at the last moment, the sacred beast Shepparton protected us."

Ying's emotions became excited: "It must be Xiang who did it. The Spark Doll of the Holy Beast has always been in his hands. Only he can make it materialize."

Meng Yao listened carefully and did not interrupt Ying's story.

Only at last did he ask, "What's with that gushing water?"

Ying shook his head. "After Shepparton protected us, he fell back into darkness. The sounds of battle could be heard from inside."

"The gushing of the seawater happened later. By that time, all the surviving Victorians had already escaped from underground to the surface."
