Her intuition told her that this matter was not simple and might involve a lot of things.
Chen Yuntan and Lu Qiuyun volunteered to go with her.
Fu Yunzhi thought about it and nodded.
After all, more people mean more people to look after you. If you really encounter any problems, you will have someone to help.
The spacecraft passed through the wormhole and jumped to the target planet.
Through the porthole, what came into view was a dead silent scene.
The surface of the planet is gray, without a trace of vegetation, only bare rocks and gullies, like a wrinkled old face, lifeless.
This atmosphere is even more creepy than The Ring.
After the spaceship landed, the three of them stepped onto this dead land.
The gravel under my feet made a "crunching" sound, which was particularly harsh in the silent environment.
There was a strange smell in the air, which was hard to describe. It was a bit like the smell of rusted metal, mixed with a hint of corruption, which made people feel very uncomfortable.
"This place... is a bit weird..." Lu Qiuyun rubbed his arms and couldn't help muttering.
Fu Yunzhi nodded in agreement.
She turned on her mental detection, trying to find the source of the distress signal.
However, nothing was found except dead silence.
As the investigation deepened, Fu Yunzhi discovered some abnormal traces.
There were some strange scratches on the ground, as if left by some large creature dragging something.
There were also some metal fragments scattered around, like the wreckage of some mechanical device.
These signs made her increasingly uneasy, and she always felt that something was wrong.
"Yunzhi, look at this!" Chen Yuntan pointed to a hole not far away and said, "Is that the mark left by the explosion?"
Fu Yunzhi walked over and took a closer look, and found that the rocks at the edge of the pit were melted, and some unidentified substances remained at the bottom of the pit.
This made her even more convinced that a fierce battle had taken place here.
"I think this distress signal might be fake, a trap." Fu Yunzhi said solemnly, "We'd better go back immediately and tell everyone what's going on."
"But we haven't found the source of the signal yet." Chen Yuntan was a little unwilling, "What if someone really needs help?"
"Yun Tan, Yun Zhi is right. We can't take any risks." Lu Qiuyun stood on Fu Yun Zhi's side. "The current situation is too strange. We must act with caution."
Fu Yunzhi and Shen Yuntan had a slight disagreement, and Lu Qiuyun was caught in the middle and was in a dilemma.
The atmosphere became tense for a moment, and the air was filled with tension.
Fu Yunzhi looked at Chen Yuntan, his eyes full of worry.
She knew that Chen Yuntan was unwilling to give up on anyone who might need help.
But the situation is different now. She can't let Chen Yuntan and Lu Qiuyun take risks with her.
"How about this? You guys go back to the star region first. I'll investigate the situation here carefully before returning." Fu Yunzhi finally made a decision. "If I find anything, I'll let you know immediately."
Chen Yuntan wanted to say something, but when he saw Fu Yunzhi's determined eyes, he finally nodded and went back with Lu Qiuyun.
After some investigation, Fu Yunzhi returned to the Alliance Star Field alone, where the military headquarters was located.
However, what she didn't expect was that what awaited her was not praise and understanding, but suspicion and doubt.
"Marshal Fu, why did you leave the army without permission?" an officer asked with a hint of hostility in his tone.
"I received a distress signal and went to investigate the situation," Fu Yunzhi explained.
"A distress signal? Why didn't we receive it?" another officer questioned. "Marshal Fu, do you have some ulterior motive?"
She felt a little aggrieved and helpless. She was clearly there to investigate the situation, but people suspected she had ulterior motives.
Helan Qiao walked over to Fu Yunzhi, patted her shoulder gently, and whispered, "I believe you."
Although Helan Qiao believed her, he was unable to stop the spread of rumors.
Fu Yunzhi looked at the suspicious eyes around him, and his heart was suddenly filled with bitterness.
At this time, a voice came from the crowd.
"Shut up!" A low roar, like thunder out of the blue, made the eardrums of everyone present buzz.
Leng Yuzhou walked slowly towards them, emitting a powerful aura, like a beast ready to pounce, making people shudder.
His sharp eyes swept over the crowd, and wherever he went, there was complete silence, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
"I know the Marshal better than any of you." Leng Yuzhou's voice was cold and powerful. Every word was like a heavy hammer, hammering hard on the hearts of those who doubted her. "She would never do anything to betray the alliance or the military!"
"But, Admiral..." An officer wanted to quibble, but before he could finish his words, Leng Yuzhou glared back at him, scaring him so much that his legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.
"No buts!" Leng Yuzhou's voice was resounding, "I believe in the Marshal!"
A warm current surged in Fu Yunzhi's heart, like a ray of sunshine in winter, dispelling the haze in her heart.
She looked at Leng Yuzhou, and she didn't expect that at this critical moment, he would stand up and support her without hesitation.
"The Admiral is really a very manly man! This wave of actions is simply 666!" Fu Yunzhi silently gave Leng Yuzhou a thumbs up in his heart, and by the way, he imagined a scene of a hero saving a beauty in his mind, and the corners of his mouth could not help but rise slightly.
Leng Yuzhou's prestige temporarily suppressed the rumors.
But Fu Yunzhi knew that this was only temporary. If the truth was not clarified quickly, those doubts would sooner or later come back and even intensify.
