Chapter 1408 a cycle
Cecil Rhodes, a person who no longer exists, is the former head of the distribution of Torchwood Afiriga, and secretly is the founder of another more secret organization within Torchwood.
The False Brotherhood, this is what he established with other people who know the truth of the world. Nothing is true, and everything can be done is their famous saying.
Cecil Rhodes took the initiative to ask for the Torchwood branch in Africa, and for this reason he gave up his appointment to become a senior executive of Torchwood headquarters, all because of an ancient manuscript in his hand.
The manuscript comes from a descendant of a governor in a distant colonial era who was involved in a chaos erosion incident, Cecil Rhodes was the secret service officer who handled the erosion incident at that time.
The descendants of the Governor were not worshippers who caused the Chaos Erosion event, but were an unlucky fan of mysterious events. They mistakenly entered the Chaos Worshiper's lair, and were dismembered and became another victim on the altar.
Then when the erosion incident broke out, the Torch Wood was removed, so the existence of the descendant of the Governor did not attract the attention of Torch Wood at all. Every year, countless ordinary people were implicated due to the chaos erosion incident. In order to ensure the safety of the world, Torch Wood itself took the initiative to clear out countless suspicious constituents, and no one cared about the existence of such a small character.
Perhaps it was fate that Cecil Rhodes saw the manuscript while sorting out the victim's relics. The manuscript details how the colonist, as the governor of a place, discovered a bottomless cave on the continent of Aphilica, and a mine was also found near the cave.
Cecil Rhodes' first thought at that time was that the unlucky ancestors were extremely lucky to discover a vibrating gold vein, but the record in the manuscript turned around and recorded that the Governor sent a twelve-man exploration team to explore the cave. The exploration team was moving like a cave. The depth of the cave was far beyond their imagination. After twelve kilometers deep into the cave, the exploration team took the initiative to return to the ground and used up all the lighting objects.
The second exploration operation began again soon. This time the Governor ordered people to prepare the most advanced battery lighting at that time. A small team of people who were reduced to seven entered the cave with enough batteries, but they never returned. After entering the cave, the subsequent rescue team found traces left by the exploration team members twenty kilometers underground, but no one was willing to move forward.
The Governor did not continue to take risks in the end, but the locals began to rumor that the cave was a passage to hell. Later, the Governor had to order people to blow up the entrance to the cave, and the matter was left unresolved.
Cecil Rhodes collected the manuscript as some interesting antique. The Torch Wood's special service staff had more or less privileges. This behavior of greed for the personal belongings of the victims often occurs. After all, these things can never be returned to the victim's family. As long as it is confirmed that they have nothing to do with chaos, no one will investigate it.
The special service personnel of the Anti-chaotic department were under great pressure, and death was like a shadow, but they also had enough personal time to use their personal hobbies to dilute this pressure. Cecil Rhodes' personal hobby was to collect antiques and paintings that were not very expensive, so he would collect the old manuscripts privately.
Out of interest in this story, Cecil began to pay attention to the news about the governor, and bought a colonial collection related to the governor at an auction. It was a very precious original photo. The character in the photo was a group photo of all the white governors of Afiliga at that time.
Cecil found the governor who unfortunately died in the erosion of chaos in the photo. He was a man with a beard with a sharp look that was unique to the colonial governor. Although the photo was old and blurry, he could still feel the momentum of the governors in the photo that regarded human life as a mustard.
But what really attracted Cecil was a metal badge on the governor's clothes. He used the torch wood technology to repair the damaged area of the photo, and partially enlarged the metal badge, and trembled all over.
Cecil Rhodes has seen that badge!
At that time, the deep space colonization plan had just begun, and the colonial ships and deep space warships were still on the design drawings, but the people had already started to discuss the selection of pioneers, the naming of ships, and even the design of pioneer badges had already begun.
The metal badge hanging on the Governor is the one that is the most leading in all EU pioneer badge design competitions!
The reason why Cecil Rhodes remembers this badge so deeply is because it was designed by him. He hand-drawn the badge composed of simple lines in his spare time and contributed anonymously to the selection competition.
At that moment, Cecil Rhodes began to feel that fate might really exist, otherwise how could such a coincidence happen?
Over time, Cecil survived the mission repeatedly, and his familiar colleagues died one by one, but he still remembered the governor in Afilica and the hidden cave.
Cecil gave up his opportunity at the headquarters and chose to go to the Africa branch to serve as the head, borrowing the convenience of his rights to collect information about the governor and secretly search for the location of the cave.
Things went very smoothly, and Cecil Rhodes felt that all this was like the arrangement of fate again. He took a vacation again and found the buried cave during his trip to find the Governor's past information.
This means that his actions will not be recorded in the Torch Wood Division. Coupled with his identity and his usual careful manner of acting, the existence of the cave became his own secret.
Since arriving in Afilica, his car has prepared the full set of what he needs, a full-covered exoskeleton armor, enough for its battery pack that lasts for several years, endless food, fresh water, and oxygen.
Cecil had almost no hesitation, and after dressing neatly, he walked into the cave that was re-exposed due to the war.
The cave is very deep, very deep. Cecil's recorder shows that he is going down the road, with a gentle slope, and there are almost no turning points along the way. There is no trace of excavation on a straight road, but such caves will never be formed in nature.
Twenty-one kilometers deep into the cave, he found the traces left by the second exploration team recorded in the manuscript, three human corpses, and handwritings were engraved on the walls. The handwritings were no longer distinguishable due to the passage of time. These were all not recorded on the manuscript.
