"Hmm?" The white beast narrowed its eyes, staring at the windshield, then suddenly stood up: "It really is!"
After everyone recognized Lin Nai, they quickly got off the mecha tank.
"Holy crap, what happened to you, Nai-ge?"
Meng Feifei took Lin Nai's arm and put it on her shoulder, looking at him with surprise: "What exactly happened here? How could there have been such a huge explosion? We were almost swallowed by the fire!"
"...Don't even mention it." Lin Nai looked very weak, and could barely stand, leaning her weight entirely on Meng Feifei.
Upon seeing this, Fang Wu quickly rummaged through his pockets.
Then he took out an injection and injected it into Linnai.
Lin Nai felt as if a cool spring was flowing into her neck.
His physical condition improved significantly in a short time.
"Tong Yi, quickly treat your brother's wounds," Chu Men said.
"Oh...okay." Upon hearing this, Tong Yi immediately knelt down beside Lin Nai, took out various healing medicines, and treated his external injuries.
Mu Xun stood aside, pondered for a moment, and asked, "That explosion of flames just now, it must have been divine flames, right? Did you release it?"
"How could I be so crazy? Using such powerful divine techniques in this confined space is practically suicide, isn't it? I'm not insane." Lin Nai glanced at him helplessly: "It's the Five Elements Society. They're fighting with Zhao Yulong and his Dark Moon members."
"The Five Elements Society?" Yu Yuanyuan was taken aback. "Aren't the Five Elements Society and the Dark Moon Organization both loyal to the evil god?"
“No, the Five Elements Society must be an undercover agent planted by someone next to the evil god.” Lin Nai pondered for a while: “Moreover, all of the thirty-odd members of the Five Elements Society can wield divine power, and each person’s divine power is different. Moreover, each person should possess more than 1% of the power of their respective god.”
"The 'Fire Funeral' that the red-robed masked man just used must have had at least 3% of the power of the God of Fire."
Chu Men, Hua Lingze, Fang Wu, and the others were shocked to hear this.
"Thirty-odd people? 3%?!!"
Hua Yingwen exclaimed in surprise, "Could it be... that all thirty-odd people are Apostles???"
“Of course not,” Linnaeus said. “I think these people’s superpowers must have been bestowed upon them by some powerful figure who controls everything behind the scenes.”
"Some powerful figure pulling the strings behind the scenes?" Meng Feifei tilted her head. "What kind of person is so amazing that they can bestow divine power upon these members of the Five Elements Society? It can only be the gods."
"......"
Lin Nai remained silent, his gaze gradually darkening, and he did not speak.
Mu Xun wandered around the underground cavern still engulfed in flames, picking up several Five Elements Society masks and body parts of several Dark Moon members that had been shattered in the explosion...
Then he looked up.
Above the cave was a huge tree that had been burned black. All the roots and vines of the tree had been burned to charcoal. Mu Xun only walked forward and caused a slight tremor. All the charred branches fell down and landed on the scorched earth.
"This is... the Demon Tree?"
Hua Lingze frowned.
“Yes,” Linna said calmly. “The Five Elements Society came here to destroy the Demon Tree. It seems that they were given the order by the person behind them.”
"...Tsk tsk, these people are too ruthless."
Seeing this, the monkey couldn't help but exclaim in astonishment: "To blow up a tree, they all died together... What a bunch of lunatics!"
"Beep beep beep"
At this moment, the system's communication panel suddenly popped up.
Lin Nai was taken aback.
The incoming message is for nighttime!
Has the signal been restored in the capital?
Linnai answered immediately.
"Hello? Wan'er?"
"Brother Linnai! Ah, thank goodness, you're alright..."
"Hmm." Lin Nai smiled. "It seems you've resolved things on your end as well."
“Yes, I’m with Shirley now,” Night said.
“Shirley?” Linna was taken aback.
I thought that after our parting, we might never see each other again.
Unexpectedly...
This woman is really fearless. The entire outer ring city has been bombed flat, and she still dares to approach.
"Linnaeus, have you found the Demon Tree?"
"Found it, but the Demon Tree was destroyed by the Five Elements Society." Linnai paused. "I'll go up and meet you right away. By the way, what's the situation on the ground now?"
Lin Nai listened silently to what Ye Wan'er was telling him on the other end of the system phone call, his eyes narrowing slightly.
"Is that so... I understand."
"I'll be heading back to the surface soon. Let's meet at the agreed coordinates then."
Immediately afterward, Linna hung up the phone.
"Your sister-in-law's phone call?" Meng Feifei asked. "Has the internet signal been restored in the capital?"
"It's true! It's back to normal." Yu Yuanyuan also tried opening the system to check: "My system can connect to the internet again!"
Truman pondered, "Su Yibai, why did you suddenly reopen the capital's network?"
"Let's not talk about this now," Linna interrupted their conversation. "We need to get back to the surface as soon as possible."
"The rebels have already invaded the capital."
Everyone was taken aback.
"Rebels??"
Meng Feifei was surprised: "Isn't that Tang Hongshan and his group?"
Hua Lingze asked in confusion, "The rebels have always been suppressed by the official forces controlled by Su Yibai. How come they suddenly have the ability to attack the capital?"
You should know that there are hundreds of billions of monsters outside the capital!
Lin Nai said in a deep voice, "I think the person who ordered the Five Elements Society to burn down the Demon Tree may be the same person behind the rebels."
The contents of Carlos's diary came to mind again.
There were also the large number of purple fungi that I saw growing next to the dimensional rift in the wilderness.
And, the dimensional rift that was just hidden beneath the intricate roots of the Demon Tree...
"Wait until I find the person behind the rebels."
Lin Nai's gaze sharpened as he slowly said, "Perhaps then we'll be able to figure out exactly what happened."
