That night, Lan Mu boarded a plane to Xiangjiang, then transferred to New Guinea.
Qu Bo's matter had been lingering in his heart. How did the scalpel disappear into thin air?
After repeated confirmation, Lan Mu concluded that Qu Bo was dead. His brain was destroyed by a scalpel, and no one could survive.
Qu Bo himself was too strange. He didn't have a soul, and so did Lupus 4 …
Could it be that artificial creatures had no soul? Was Qu Bo also an artificial human?
In any case, Lan Mu had contacted Bai Ze about the laboratory and asked him to find someone trustworthy to deal with it and transfer some useful technical information. Then, he would seal the laboratory and bury it under the mountain forever.
Another day passed, and Lan Mu found Bai Ze in New Guinea. He had bought a yacht and was waiting for him.
Lan Mu boarded the yacht and headed to the island that already belonged to him.
"Master, the name of the island is Inner Milia. It has an area of 30 square kilometers, enough to build a small biosphere and research institute. However, there are no large freshwater resources on the island, and it is isolated in the Pacific Ocean. It is 600 nautical miles away from the nearest island, New Guinea. There are no reefs around it."
"Forests cover 64% of the island. There are many birds on the island, but there are no large animals and no minerals. It is basically a barren island. There is no development of living facilities because experts have said that the island will disappear from the Pacific Ocean in the next 50 years."
"Its location increases the difficulty of infrastructure development and raises the cost. Even if we invest a lot of money into it, it will be worthless."
"The price offered by the New Guinea government is very low. They sold the entire island and the surrounding waters to us for 8 million. For us, the island's environment doesn't matter, but the lack of freshwater is very difficult. With the funds I have now, it is impossible to build it in the near future. "
As Bai Ze spoke, Lan Mu didn't know much. He only knew that if the island was to be developed into one of the bases of the Blue and White Society, a large amount of money would be needed.
Lan Mu: "Build the basic facilities first. For the time being, we don't need it to be of much use. It will be fine as long as it can hide my transformation."
Bai Ze nodded while pouring two drinks at the yacht's bar counter. "Understood. There are already preliminary buildings on the island, a simple modern house and a miniature port. However, in terms of complete facilities, it's not as good as this newly bought yacht, the Chuanbei. There are eight tons of fresh water stored on it, sufficient food, and complete electrical appliances in the rooms. It can definitely support us for a period of time. "
Lan Mu took the drink and tasted it. It was a mixture of coconut juice, soda water, and wine. It tasted strange.
He said, "I don't care where I live. Didn't you build a house on the island? You can stay there too … "
As long as he transformed into an elf, Lan Mu could live forever in the forest. As long as it wasn't a desert, elves were more suitable for this kind of island environment.
"That … uh … what's that island called again?"
Bai Ze said, "Neimyria … Master, if you're not satisfied, you can change the name at any time with a small sum of money. Why don't you give it another name?"
Lan Mu was surprised. Giving him a name again … He was the worst at naming things, and everyone around him knew this very well.
"Ahem … ahem …"
He hadn't even seen what the island looked like yet, so he couldn't think of a name at all.
"I'm very bad at naming things … You can just pick a name from the super USB drive, as long as it's easy to remember … Uh, how about Shadow Island?"
Bai Ze was surprised. "Shadow Island? What does that mean? Oh! I understand now! If CANC is the old order of the supernatural world, then our Lan Bai Society is the new order born from the shadows! "
CANC cooperated with most countries in the world. Although it was hidden from the general public, its containment operations were basically open and aboveboard. On the other hand, if the Lan Bai Society wanted to survive, they had to hide in the shadows. After all, their purpose was to use anomalies, and Lan Mu himself was the most inconceivable anomaly in the world. If they were exposed, in the eyes of every country, they would become a terrorist organization that could threaten humanity or even the world at any time.
However, Lan Mu didn't think too much about it. He also didn't think that the Lan Bai Society could become a new order that could break the old order.
"You're thinking too much, I'm just borrowing a name from the game, you're overthinking it …"
Hearing Lan Mu's explanation, Bai Ze was speechless and smiled.
"Right … how much longer until we arrive?" Lan Mu asked again.
Bai Ze looked at the GPS and said: "Two more hours"
…
In the afternoon, their yacht was anchored at the only port on the island. The port was very simple, basically made up of dozens of chopping boards. Fortunately, this place could barely be considered a harbor. Although there were winds and waves, they wouldn't damage the buildings on the island.
Stepping on the port, there was a small wooden house. After all, it was a bit unreasonable for a port to not have a single building.
"The house is inside. This island is deep in the ocean, so the weather is constantly changing. Who knows when there will be strong winds and waves. So in order to prevent the house from being invaded, I specially had people build it in the forest. "Bai Ze pointed in a direction and led the way for Lan Mu.
There were no roads on the island, but in order to facilitate the transportation of building materials, a simple stone road was laid down when the house was being built, extending all the way into the forest.
After walking for about 300 meters, Lan Mu arrived in front of the house. It was different from the villa he had expected. This was a small courtyard made up of four single-story houses, surrounded by piled stones.
The furnishings in the house were very simple, and it was indeed inferior to the yacht.
"Whoosh!"
He took off his clothes, twisted his body, and transformed into the Divine Bird Bi Fang, soaring into the sky.
In less than a minute, he had already seen the entire island and landed lightly.
"It's really barren … The mountains are small, the forests are sparse, and there are no animals …"
Because of the lack of fresh water, there were basically no large animals on the island. Almost all of them were small creatures like birds, snakes, and insects.
However, Big Bear was brought here by Wang Ze. At the moment, it was shaking a tree behind the small courtyard, and the bird nests on the tree were shaken down by it. On this island, Big Bear was the largest animal.
"Big Bear also needs fresh water to survive, so I specially made a reservoir for it. It's enough for it to live for a few weeks."
Behind the small courtyard, the entire forest was its territory. However, close to the wall, there was a reservoir that could hold 40 cubic meters, and it was filled with 60% of the fresh water.
The cost of transporting fresh water from hundreds of miles away was extremely high, but it couldn't be helped.
Lan Mu turned back into a human, wearing only beach shorts, and said leisurely, "In the future, maybe I can become some kind of creature and improve this island. For the fresh water problem, let's use the transportation method first! Personally, I don't really need water.
Bai Ze nodded and said, "That's good … Master, I'll go back to China first to purchase a batch of supplies. Also, there's something I need your permission on. I'm going to Xiangjiang to pick up two people and bring them to Shadow Island … Is that okay? "
Lan Mu asked, "Are they your members?"
"That's right. Ever since I established the organization, I haven't recruited many subordinates, but there are two people that I feel are trustworthy enough to become official members of the Blue and White Society. It's about time for them to come into contact with supernatural entities. "Bai Ze continued:" The treatment laboratory at Modu Mingjia Mountain was handled by these two people. They're very receptive and interested in supernatural entities. "
"I've already told them about the various mystical zones and anomalies that exist in this world. They've shown great interest and expectation, and are more than willing to join our organization."
"For now, they're only helping me with business matters, but after seeing the situation in the laboratory, they're a bit impatient to come into contact with real anomalies. So I'm going to bring them here to meet you."
In Bai Ze's mind, Lan Mu was the most powerful anomaly. As time passed, his abilities would only become more and more terrifying, eventually growing to the point where he couldn't be stopped.
"Let them meet me … Sure, I'll meet them in my transformed state. Also, you have to remember, you're the boss of the Blue and White Society, don't tell them about our relationship!" Lan Mu agreed. The Blue and White Society needed some capable subordinates, the sooner they were trained, the better.
"Go … Also, set up a company or something in New Guinea. In short, we need to have some sort of property to serve as one of our bases in other countries. Right, Ma Xiaoou is completely trustworthy. Contact him later, he'll also be a member of the Blue and White Society, so we'll need more helpers. "
Bai Ze knew about Ma Xiaoou, who was also Ma Xiang's new identity after his reincarnation. From now on, Ma Xiang would live in this world under the name of Ma Xiaoou.
There were still two corpses in the laboratory, as well as various experimental records and samples. These were all handed over to Bai Ze's people to handle, and the one who handed them over was naturally Ma Xiaoou. That was why Bai Ze knew about Lan Mu's trust in Ma Xiaoou.
Lan Mu left the country by himself, while Ma Xiaoou stayed behind in Shanghai to take care of some family matters.
He already had the resolve to work together with Lan Mu, but he still had family ties. Cheng Ming and the others still hadn't returned, so all of this would take some time to arrange. Once all of this was done, the Blue and White Society would have another core member.
So far, there were only three core members: Bai Ze, Luo Yan, and Ma Xiaoou.
…
Bai Ze left, taking the only boat away.
That night, 8 days later.
Only Lan Mu and one bear, two birds, and Three Tails were left on the entire Shadow Island.
The two birds flew into the deep forest. With their strength, they could easily become the king of birds on the entire island.
Lan Mu didn't care about them. He flopped in the sea to find some scallops and tried his best to catch a few green spotted fish.
He set up a bonfire on the beach to barbecue and filled his stomach. Most of the food was eaten by Big Bear.
"You foodie, don't you know how to find food yourself?"
Lan Mu laughed and scolded, but Three Tails followed suit and scolded him again.
"Haha!"
Lan Mu and Three Tails communicated in Chinese, using this method to continuously teach the Three Tails the language.
Suddenly, his whole body twisted and trembled, and he couldn't help but shout.
"It's coming! I'm going to transform! "
He transformed in an instant, turning into a wriggling and expanding mass of meat. This mass of meat rapidly grew, crushing everything on the beach and extinguishing the bonfire in an instant.
The color of the mass of meat gradually darkened, and then it grew inch by inch black scales. Lan Mu's body was wildly elongated, and soon he couldn't be seen as a human. What fell in front of them was a giant snake that was still growing!
It grew too fast, like a balloon that was violently inflating. In the blink of an eye, it was nearly 100 meters long! The wriggling body and swaying tail easily destroyed everything around it. The beach was more than a meter deep, and a huge gully was scraped out.
Big Bear and Three Tails ran away in panic, almost being crushed to death under the huge body.
"Ang!"
Lan Mu found that he had turned into a giant snake, but it didn't make a hissing sound. Instead, it made a high-pitched whistle, like a steam whistle.
The sound traveled a hundred miles, and the sea shook.
