Ye Nianzhen had wondered before why those lizards gathered in the factory; perhaps there was some special energy source inside that could support their rapid growth.
Now that she has received news from the people at the base, she decides to go there again.
And the idea of a flower that glows seems very familiar!
Hearing that Ye Nianzhen was planning to come along, Mingyuan and Luoshui followed along for safety reasons, even though the lizards inside the factory had been cleared out. Originally, Qin Qiu also wanted to come, but Ye Nianzhen assigned the others the task of helping the base residents clear out other large mutated creatures in the surrounding area. In order to prevent troublemakers like Xiang Muguang from causing any problems during the mission and affecting their team's reputation in the human base, Ye Nianzhen specifically instructed Qin Qiu to supervise the work carefully.
After explaining everything, Ye Nianzhen set off with Mingyuan and Luoshui.
In the past two days, residents have been moving back and forth between the base and the factory to transport usable supplies and lizard eggs. Some of the small monsters along the way have been eliminated, the weeds have been cleared, and the road has become easy to find and walk on.
The journey was easy and pleasant until they arrived inside the factory. After explaining the situation to the base residents who remained at the factory, they were led by him to the vicinity of the "glowing flower".
When they were almost there, the person said he couldn't go any further, as if an invisible wall was blocking them from entering. Apparently, the person who had discovered this place before encountered the same situation, and after that, several other people tried to get through but couldn't either.
This greatly aroused Luo Shui's curiosity and competitive spirit.
If he can get through places that others can't, wouldn't that be amazing?
So he was the first to rush forward, saying to Ye Nianzhen, "Come on, let's see who can get over there!"
Ye Nianzhen was a little worried that there might be danger inside, after all, this was the first time she had encountered something like an invisible wall in this world, but Luo Shui ran too fast, and before she could even say her warning, Luo Shui had already rushed into that invisible wall.
Yeh Nian-zhen: "!"
After she realized what was happening, she quickly followed Mingyuan to catch up with Luoshui, but to her surprise, the wall closed again!
Ye Nianzhen and Mingyuan exchanged glances. She asked with some concern, "Could this be some kind of trap targeting Luoshui?"
Mingyuan was much calmer. He said, "It's unlikely. Luoshui doesn't have any enemies. Besides, this is our first time in human territory."
Although Mingyuan said that, Ye Nianzhen, who had the memories of the previous reincarnation, was still very worried, after all, she knew that they were originally people from the human base.
It was only then that she realized the system hadn't been online for a long time. Although the system had used up a lot of energy to wake up Ye Nianzhen, it shouldn't have been completely silent for so long, right?
She was now calling out to the system in her mind, but the system still did not respond for a long time. Because the system was offline, she was also unable to confirm Luo Shui's safety through the favorability page.
Now all that's left is to wait here quietly; I haven't encountered this helpless situation in a long time.
Ye Nianzhen frowned slightly and sighed, "We can only wait and see. I hope he's alright."
Although Luo Shui is usually carefree, he is actually a straightforward and simple-minded boy who cares a lot about his companions. Ye Nianzhen usually doesn't think he holds much weight in her heart, but now, she actually feels a little stifled.
Seeing Ye Nianzhen's reaction, Mingyuan first patted her shoulder to comfort her, but behind her back, he silently pursed his thin lips.

On the other side, Luo Shui, who was running in the lead out of curiosity, did not enjoy the joy of successfully passing through the invisible wall for long.
He soon discovered that only his own echo remained inside the empty factory, while Ye Nianzhen and Mingyuan, who were supposed to follow behind, had disappeared without a trace!
He was immediately a little depressed. What was the point of coming here alone?
But now he can't go back, because he can't see anyone from the original factory behind him, let alone speak... But what's even stranger is that the glowing little flower that used to bloom in the corner not far behind the invisible wall has also disappeared!
Rather than describing the scene behind the invisible wall, this is more like a completely unfamiliar environment, as if you've entered a strange world.
He already hated thinking about complicated things, and the current situation was already making him a bit irritable. He wandered aimlessly for a while, and what cheered him up was that he suddenly heard some sounds!
He thought it was Mingyuan and the others, so he quickened his pace and rushed over. But when he got closer, he realized it wasn't any of the familiar voices. He immediately became alert and hid behind the wall as he slowly approached the source of the sound.
He peeked out from behind the wall and saw the backs of two people talking.
One of the figures looked vaguely familiar, but no one could quite place who it was. The other figure was the back of someone they had no recollection of, and it didn't seem to be a beastman; they were probably human.
The first person's voice sounded somewhat impatient: "I said I'm not going. What, do you want to fight me?"
The other person, wearing these glasses, was facing Luo Shui from half-profile, so his face was obscured. He appeared to be a dignified and refined-looking man. He said, "You have to go. It's her order. You won't gain anything by fighting with me. Don't be stubborn."
The first person shoved the other's shoulder: "What? Su Mo, haven't I done enough for you? You sent me to suppress the coastal bases, and I went. Now the central base is built too. Can't you just leave me alone in peace? Huh?"
For some reason, the tone and voice of this person's voice also felt strangely familiar to Luo Shui, which made him feel slightly uneasy, and his heart began to beat faster and faster in his chest.
The two were still arguing and eventually parted on bad terms. Apparently, the man with glasses had asked him to carry out some task, which he was unwilling to do.
The bespectacled man pushed up his glasses, the reflective lenses obscuring his eyes. He finally sighed softly, his meaning ambiguous, and said, "Alright, you have indeed made many contributions to the construction of the base, and I can't force you to do something you don't want to do. But you should know that if we really fight, she will be heartbroken."
"Besides, although your level is higher than mine, my ability is mental, so you may not be able to beat me."
The first person sneered: "Heh, shut up, Su Mo."
