Ten hours later, at Dafeng Mountain, north of Taoyuan Village.

Looking at the large research institutes, medium-sized schools, and large pharmaceutical factories that had sprung up, Li Tianyi was filled with excitement, and would occasionally grin foolishly...

Long Weiguo and the others had been standing there stunned for a long time, their eyes wide open and their mouths agape.

It was Professor Sun who reacted first, rushing excitedly towards the research institute.

The others rushed in immediately as well.

Upon seeing the latest high-tech research equipment, everyone shed tears of excitement and immediately devoted themselves to the research of robotics and mecha.

......

Li Tianyi stayed in Taoyuan Village for several more hours, and only left quietly after getting everything back on track.

Just after leaving Taoyuandong, I received an emergency call from the communications room.

However, the call level is still the highest level of five-fold hidden code encryption.

Minutes later, the password was successfully cracked, and the double-encrypted phone was used to dial Long Zhan's private number.

"How's it going?" Li Tianyi asked solemnly.

“We’ve got some leads!” A fierce killing intent flashed in Long Zhan’s eyes. “However, this matter involves too many things. We must not alert the enemy before we have solid evidence!”

"Follow your method." He shook his head and smiled wryly. "I've been feeling uneasy lately. You'd better get rid of the mole as soon as possible to avoid any further complications!"

"Understood!" Long Zhan's fists clenched so tightly they cracked. "Resolve this matter within five days."

"Hmm! Send a trusted confidant over here to take Yamazaki Sasaki away!" Li Tianyi looked angrily at the place where the Japanese soldiers were being held. "Use your torture to pry open his mouth and dig out all his secrets!"

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away!"

Long Zhan hung up the phone, his face grim. He shouted into the shadows, "Duan Fei, go to Dafeng Mountain yourself. Remember: be discreet!"

"I guarantee the mission will be completed!" said a burly man in his thirties with an upright demeanor.

Nine hours later.

Duan Fei secretly met with Li Tianyi. The two did not communicate verbally, but used encrypted gestures throughout.

A moment later, he and the Japanese soldiers disappeared into the vast mountains.

Li Tianyi did not leave. After completely erasing all traces, he circled around to the border between Dafeng Town and Dafeng Mountain, deliberately exposing himself to the soldiers of the New First Battalion.

This creates the illusion for everyone that they have always been in Dafeng Town.

As the saying goes, "to play the part completely," so they wandered around Dafeng Town and unknowingly arrived in the town center.

The surrounding area has been almost completely reduced to ashes, with only two or three buildings remaining.

"Ugh, this damn apocalypse!"

Feeling depressed, he frowned and looked up at the sky. The eerie blood sun kept emitting huge red halos, as if it wanted to bind the entire blue planet.

Suddenly, my heart started pounding uncontrollably.

It's getting faster and faster.

I quickly sealed the acupoints near the heart meridian, and the heart rate began to decrease, eventually returning to normal.

My gaze shifted to the South Port, and my heart began to pound again.

"Calling Eagle's Nest! Calling Eagle's Nest!"

"Received, please speak!"

"Scan the South Port immediately, including the deep sea!"

"yes!"

Wang Xueer operates a spy satellite, using a high-frequency detector to observe the deep sea.

Zhen Shuang and Quan Shengli carefully scanned the South Port.

The camera moved very slowly, and everyone watched very carefully.

"Stop!" Qiang Qingyue shouted, "Screen number six, slow down ten times, rotate thirty degrees to the right."

Qiang Qingdong immediately complied.

Beneath the ruins, something moved very subtly; it would be impossible to detect with normal vision unless the scene was played in slow motion.

Upon hearing the news, Li Tianyi frowned and immediately rushed to the location.

As soon as I got close, I smelled an extremely strange odor, and my heart started racing immediately, so much so that I couldn't even suppress it by sealing my acupoints.

My heart rate is still increasing.

"Electromagnetic pulse!" Li Tianyi roared, clearly distressed.

Wang Xueer immediately launched a powerful electromagnetic pulse using a spy satellite.

"Phew!" Li Tianyi touched his heart, which was gradually slowing down, and was covered in cold sweat. "Monitor this area from all angles!"

"receive!"

The communications room has once again entered a state of high alert, with various surveillance methods emerging one after another...

On the other side.

The ruins suddenly trembled slightly.

Just as Li Tianyi regained his footing, the tremors intensified, the ground cracked, and seawater poured in, cutting the entire area apart.

A giant shark leaped out of the water, its eyes lifeless, its body reeking of decay and blood.

Mou!

The shark's gaping maw snapped at them.

"Ding! A level 4 high-level early stage monster, a berserk giant shark, has been detected. Please be careful, host!"

"Ding! Monster characteristics: Both its giant teeth and tail are powerful weapons, weighing approximately 50 tons."

"Damn it!" Li Tianyi accelerated, feeling a chill run down his spine.

Boom! Thud!

The ruins were bitten by a shark, sending up clouds of dust that blotted out the sky.

With their vision obstructed, they could only rely on memory to avoid obstacles.

A loud whooshing sound came from behind.

He lunged forward, tumbling repeatedly, the gust of wind he created sweeping him away...

"Artillery company! Artillery company!" Wang Xue'er shouted into the communicator, her heart pounding. "South Port, 55.69, rapid fire! Rapid fire!"

Just as Sanpao was about to carry out the order, Zhen Shuang's voice came through: "Use the energy-concentrating weapon!"

"yes!"

Wang Erzhu and Sanpao frowned, one observing the situation while the other adjusted the firing angle.

The energy cannon needs time to charge, but the giant shark doesn't give you time, chasing after Li Tian and biting him.

With no way to avoid it, we have no choice but to confront it head-on.

"Breaking Army Blade Qi!"

A long blade of light slashed at the giant shark, but it failed to even penetrate its skin.

Mou, Mou...

The giant shark was furious; its dead fish eyes began to swell with blood, and its aura became even more violent and eerie.

The fish tail, several meters wide, was slapped down directly.

Boom! Rumble!

Li Tianyi was terrified, constantly dodging and narrowly avoiding danger, shouting into the communication device: "How much longer?"

"Twelve seconds left!" Sanpao was also anxious, but this thing couldn't be rushed.

Wang Erzhu clenched his fists, staring intently at the energy gathering timer, his heart pounding in his chest.

At the same time, the giant shark's attack frequency increased significantly, with its massive mouth and tail striking one after the other, turning the already ruined South Harbor into a pitted mess.

Li Tianyi couldn't dodge in time and was pierced through the left shoulder blade by a flying steel bar, causing him to grimace in pain.

"Die!" the giant shark roared.

The area above was completely obscured by the enormous shape of the giant shark, and the surrounding area was enveloped within it. To think that one could escape in a short time was nothing short of a pipe dream.

The jaws of a giant shark are rapidly closing in.

Ten meters.

Five meters.

Two meters.

The distance was getting closer and closer, less than half a meter away. Li Tianyi smiled bitterly, "Even if I die, I'll take you down with me!"

A faint suction force has appeared on my right palm.

If the giant shark's teeth land on you, the system's 'absorption' function will be activated to destroy you along with it.

The sharp teeth had already touched the clothes.

"It seems I can't escape death after all. Oh well!"

Just as he uttered half of the word "swallow," an extremely terrifying force came from above and pierced through the giant shark's body.

The intense pain caused its head to tilt slightly to the side.

That tiny distance saved Li Tianyi's life, and he fled into the distance, clutching his injured arm...
