Chapter 539 Reunion

Not far away.

Behind the two people, under the eaves of the building at the back.

Jiang Mu leaned against the wall, standing in the shadows, watching for an unknown amount of time.

The situation before him was completely unexpected.

Spiritual entities exist in association with sentinels (guides), and their power comes from the spiritual power of their original being.

How could a spiritual entity be stronger than a Sentinel?

The little bluebird's figure had disappeared from the spot and entered Xia Mingang's mental domain.

While other spiritual entities have a strong sense of territory, Bixi is quite different; it welcomes other spiritual entities to visit its home and even extends an invitation to the Fire Phoenix.

Fire Phoenix was so anxious that she paced around in circles.

It certainly wanted to go in, but it couldn't.

That's the sentinel's spiritual realm, not a shopping mall that anyone can go to whenever they want.

Xia Mingang stood motionless in the center of the field.

The Bixi opened his spiritual realm, and he was completely helpless.

I don't know how much time passed.

The little bluebird went in, circled around, and quickly came out.

The Bixi's home outside is like a graveyard, full of stone tablets, empty and not fun at all.

Yun Zhao quickly withdrew his mental energy.

Xia Mingang returned to normal and jumped up to unleash a torrent of curses at Bixi.

"Are you stupid! Who gave you the right to let other spiritual entities in here like that!"

Enraged, Xia Mingang kicked the tortoise shell of the Bixi, but the thick defense did not budge, and the impact made his feet go numb.

Bixi slowly twisted its neck, its coral-shaped dragon horns swaying slightly, as if in silent response.

It shifted its position, and several bullet casings fell out from the cracks in its shell.

"Are you a scavenger? You always like to hide this junk. I have plenty of money, as long as you obey me..."

Before he could finish speaking, the stone tablet reappeared behind him.

Jiang Mu emerged from the shadows, his military boots making a soft sound as they stepped on the gravel.

Hearing the noise, Yun Zhao turned around. "Why did you come here too?"

"The child wanted to see what a Bixi looks like, so he came to take a look," Jiang Mu replied lazily.

The two are neighbors.

Xia Mingang's departure could not be kept from him. The training ground had a day off today, and he had nothing to do, so he came over to join in the fun.

Yun Zhao was speechless. "If you're that free, you can come over every morning to oversee his training."

Jiang Mu resolutely refused.

He didn't take any benefits from Hope Base, so why should he make things difficult for himself?

"By the way, what were you asking about Wei Xu for yesterday?" Jiang Mu changed the subject.

Yun Zhao remained silent, casually replying, "It's nothing, just asking."

Jiang Mu: "Really? What a coincidence. You just asked the question, and Wei Xu called me not long after."

Yun Zhao paused. "Why did he call you?"

Jiang Mu said in a drawn-out tone, "Just like you, I'm asking you about someone."

"Who are you asking about?" Yun Zhao immediately sensed something was wrong.

Jiang Mu gave her a meaningful look. "You're asking me about a guide, a guide from Dawn Base."

...

Bai Yu stayed in her room today and didn't go anywhere.

Dawn Base is built underground and fully equipped. She lives on the seventh basement level, which is a guest room used by Dawn Base to entertain distinguished guests.

The suite is private and has electricity, water, and internet access.

Lying in bed browsing forums and chatting online, the day will pass by quickly.

The convoy will set off tomorrow to return to the Dawn Base.

Having been away for so long, Bai Yu was starting to miss home. She was eager to return and had long forgotten about yesterday's unexpected incident.

Anyway, once we get back, we'll be far away from the emperor, and we won't be able to meet again.

Around 10 a.m., there was a sudden knock on the door.

Bai Yu thought Uncle Han wanted to talk to her, so she ran over to open the door.

She didn't plan to go out today, wearing only a white spaghetti strap dress, the hem of which fluttered lightly like a blooming lily of the valley as she ran.

The moment the door opened, Bai Yu's smile froze on her face.

The sentry outside the door was different from yesterday; he appeared before her neatly dressed.

Wei Xu had returned to normal by now. He looked down at her slightly, and the shadow cast by his brow bone made his long, narrow eyes appear exceptionally deep.

"Hello, Guide Bai."

Wei Xu stood ramrod straight, speaking in a businesslike tone, "Let me introduce myself. I am Wei Xu, the captain of Dawn Team One."

Bai Yu subconsciously took a half step back, as if she had been startled, "You...you...how did you know I lived here!"

Wei Xu was amused by her panicked appearance.

He pulled a neatly folded piece of paper from his pocket and waved it in front of her. "It's a question."

This story begins yesterday after Bai Yu got out of the car and ran away.

The sentries were probably encountering this for the first time. A guide was directing them to run away halfway through their task, and the group looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Didn't she want the mediation fee?"

Bai Yu has already run far away.

Upon seeing this, the male guide named Zong Shang had no choice but to quickly check.

Zong Shanghe and his team are old partners.

Although his compatibility with Wei Xu was not high, it could barely help him stabilize his mental state.

This time, Zong Shang noticed something was wrong as soon as he got on the bus.

As soon as the guide in the white dress left, Wei Xu struggled violently, and no amount of comforting could help.

The sentries quickly got into the vehicle to help and restrain the man.

Zong Shang released his mental energy to try to connect, but something unexpected happened; he suddenly couldn't pry open Wei Xu's mental barrier.

It was as if overnight, Wei Xu began to reject his mental energy...

This is something that has never happened before.

Li Wenchao and the others were in a panic, asking, "What exactly happened?"

Zong Shang had no idea.

He acted decisively, immediately pulling out an inhibitor from his bag and injecting it into Wei Xu, his priority being to restore Wei Xu's sanity.

After receiving the inhibitor, Wei Xu was rushed to the sentinel hospital for a medical examination.

...

Wei Xuren woke up in the middle of the night.

This mission was extremely dangerous.

The three-star reconnaissance mission has been upgraded to four stars. During their search for the gatekeeper, they encountered another S-class Sentinel mutant.

Two team members were injured, and the rate of erosion was so fast that they dared not use their abilities.

He gave the inhibitors he had to his teammates and went alone to lure away the S-class mutant.

The dangers involved are self-evident.

After overcoming numerous difficulties, the entire group finally regrouped and managed to find the key.

As for what happened next...

The image of a fluttering white dress flashed through Wei Xu's mind, and he could still feel the soft touch on his chest. He was fully awake.

"Captain, you're awake! How are you feeling?" The team members gathered around and asked with concern.

Wei Xu slowly sat up and asked in a hoarse voice, "Who is she?"

The abrupt and seemingly unrelated statement left everyone present bewildered.

Li Wenchao was the first to come to his senses. "The captain asked about the guide? We've never seen him before. He must have just arrived at the base from another refugee camp recently."

"It doesn't look like it."

Wei Xu removed the tubes from his body. The side effects of the inhibitors gave him a splitting headache. He calmed himself and replied, "The guides in the refugee camp don't wear skirts, and they don't..."

"Can't do what?"

She doesn't have delicate skin; she has a clean and spotless appearance, and exudes a sweet fragrance.

She was clearly spoiled as a child.

"nothing."

Wei Xu got off the hospital bed shirtless, casually put on a black vest, and said, "I'll go find it myself."
