Xia Chujian: “…”

She wondered, why was Zong Ruoning so excited when he heard the space crack?

Xia Chujian narrowed his eyes and said calmly, "It was the officers and soldiers of the Star Exploration Force who said that."

"And, after they came back, they sent people into the camp."

"I saw with my own eyes their figures gradually blurred in the white light, and then I opened fire to save them."

Zong Ruoning's attention at this time seemed to be completely attracted by the four words "space crack".

He secretly clenched his fists and asked, "Which soldiers from the Star Exploration Force later entered the camp?"

"Do you remember which aircraft they belong to when you first met them?"

Xia Chujian said, "Remember, you can ask this officer. He should be their leader, and it was he who first suspected that the white lights were space cracks."

Zong Ruoning clasped his fists and bowed towards Xia Chujian, saying, "Chujian, thank you for telling me this news. You don't know how much this means to me!"

"I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. I will repay you generously after I return."

Xia Chujian: “…”

That's not necessary.

She quickly said, "I'm just passing on a message. If you want to thank anyone, thank the officers and soldiers of the Space Exploration Force. They are the ones who truly understand this information."

Zong Ruoning smiled and waved at her: "Thank you, see you later."

Then the video communication between the two was cut off.

After Zong Ruoning stopped communicating with Xia Chujian, he sat in his room for a long time.

Then he asked his secretary to contact the Star Exploration Force according to the information given by Xia Chujian.

The first person he wanted to ask was the officer who had first suggested that the white lights were space cracks.

The officer's name was Jing Yushi, a rugged man in his forties.

The skin seemed to have been exposed to more rays of sunlight, and it had a healthy golden brown color.

When he learned that the eldest son of the Zong family wanted to have a video call with him, he was very surprised.

"Master Zong, a distinguished person like you can just ask for instructions. Why would you condescend to send a video call invitation?"

Although this person looks casual, he still looks flattering when he speaks.

Zong Ruoning didn't care and asked nervously, "I heard there was a space crack in the camp. I'm worried about the whereabouts of those missing students, teachers, and soldiers. I wanted to ask you, how did you know it was a space crack?"

Jing Yushi scratched his head and said, "That's what I saw!"

"I heard from the soldiers who entered the camp how they felt. It felt like there were cliffs all around, and you could fall off if you weren't careful. That's exactly how a space rift feels!"

Zong Ruoning's pupils narrowed slightly, and she said, "Major Jing, are you saying this because you've experienced this before?"

"Otherwise, how could you make such a judgment just by listening to someone else's description?"

A look of surprise flashed across Jing Yushi's face, but before Zong Ruoning could see clearly, he shouted, "Yes! I have indeed encountered it myself!"

"But that place is completely different from this Green Star!"

"The planet we're going to is a dying planet on the verge of destruction. Space cracks often appear there, it's not uncommon!"

"But this Green Star isn't a dying planet nearing the end of its lifespan. So, I'm also very curious as to why a space rift would appear when the geomagnetic environment is stable."

Zong Ruoning said, "Are you sure that the remaining people in the camp have entered the space crack?"

Jing Yushi said: "Is there any other possibility?"

Zong Ruoning said thoughtfully, "...As far as I know, when a space crack appears, a stationary object will not fall in unless it is exactly where the space crack opens."

"That camp is not small. Aircraft and airships are all stationary objects."

"They actually fell into the dimensional rift along with all the students, teachers, and soldiers. How many dimensional rifts have appeared in the camp?"

"Is that possible?"

After Zong Ruoning said this, Jing Yushi also became serious.

He thought for a moment and said, "You make sense. I haven't thought about it carefully either."

"How about I call those soldiers over here and you ask them yourself?"

Zong Ruoning said, "Excuse me, I really want to know where all those students, teachers, and soldiers went. Over 2,400 people, they can't just disappear like this without a clear explanation."

Among the more than 2,400 people, although the vast majority were soldiers, there were also more than 400 students and teachers.

These are the best of this year’s Beichen Imperial Military Academy!

Jing Yushi hurriedly said, "I understand! I understand! I'll call them over right away."

Not long after, Jing Yushi came over with four soldiers and said, "Commissioner Zong, this is the person who entered the camp to explore the way this time."

“They are the ones who are truly enveloped by the white light.”

Zong Ruoning nodded at him: "Thank you, Major Jing."

Then he looked at the four soldiers, nodded slightly, and asked, "What happened at that time? Can you tell me in detail?"

The soldiers had already told Xia Chujian what had happened once before, and now they repeated it in order.

After listening to the stories of these four soldiers, Zong Ruoning fell into deep thought.

As mentioned before, the feeling that there is an abyss everywhere is indeed like a space crack.

But I also saw a tall human figure looming in the sky, which was very strange.

Because this is definitely not the characteristic of the appearance of space cracks.

As the name suggests, space cracks are physical phenomena that only occur when space is unstable.

Since the space is unstable, how could there be a human figure in the crack?

it's out of the question!

So, what is going on?

Zong Ruoning looked up and looked out the window of the aircraft at the place where the circular camp was originally located, and frowned.

Why does this phenomenon occur in that place?

Also, did those students, teachers, soldiers, aircraft, and airships really all fall into the space crack?
