"The sound of a battleship engine?!" Helan Qiao's face changed. He quickly called up his personal computer and quickly operated on the screen. "Damn it! How could we be discovered so quickly?"
The Empire has regulations that no one is allowed to enter ancient ruins or restricted areas without the Empire's permission. This time they just thought it was a base and did not report it.
"It's an interstellar patrol ship!" Tia Mir's voice trembled, "They are shooting at us!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the place where they were began to shake violently, and rubble fell from above their heads, as if it would collapse at any time.
"Let's go!" Fu Yunzhi didn't bother to explain and pulled Leng Yuzhou into the passage.
Others also reacted and followed suit.
However, they were still a step too late.
A dazzling beam of energy hit the outer wall of the ruins, instantly tearing a huge crack.
"boom--"
The explosion was deafening, and the air wave carried gravel and dust towards everyone.
"Qiuyun!" Chen Yuntan shouted, and saw Lu Qiuyun flash in front of everyone, quickly forming seals with his hands, and a crystal clear wooden wall rose from the ground.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Energy beams continuously bombarded the wooden wall, making a teeth-grinding sound.
Dense cracks quickly appeared on the wooden wall, and it looked like it was about to collapse.
Lu Qiuyun's face became paler and paler. He clenched his teeth and tried desperately to inject the supernatural power in his body into the wooden wall.
Suddenly, he groaned, and the wound on his arm suddenly split open, and blood instantly dyed his sleeve red.
"Lu Qiuyun, how are you?!" Fu Yunzhi asked anxiously.
Lu Qiuyun grinned, revealing his white teeth: "It's okay, just a minor injury. Don't worry, this barrier will reflect radar waves, and they won't be able to find us for the time being."
He spoke lightly, but beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and it was obvious that he was trying hard.
Fu Yunzhi looked at the blood constantly flowing from Lu Qiuyun's arm and felt so distressed. She bit her lower lip tightly and resisted the urge to rush over to help.
She knew that now was not the time to act emotionally and she had to leave here as soon as possible.
"Stop him! Don't let him act impulsively. We need to stay calm now!" Fu Yunzhi tightly grabbed Chen Yuntan who wanted to rush forward and said in a deep voice.
At this moment, Helan Qiao suddenly said, "No! I intercepted their communication! They are not interstellar patrol ships! They are from the Casa Empire!"
"Casa Empire?!" Fu Yunzhi and Leng Yuzhou exclaimed at the same time.
The "Casa Empire" is a notorious interstellar pirate organization. They burn, kill, loot, and commit all kinds of evil, and are a major threat to the interstellar empire.
"How come they are here?" Fu Yunzhi was puzzled.
"They've been watching you since you announced you had spatial abilities, observing your every move. Now you have something they want."
"Could it be an interstellar energy core?"
Helan Qiao heard this and nodded silently.
Leng Yuzhou's serpentine pupils suddenly contracted. He stared at Fu Yunzhi intently and spoke word by word, "What they want to steal...is not the energy core...but the bloodline!"
"Bloodline?" Fu Yunzhi was stunned for a moment, then reacted and his face turned pale. "You mean... my bloodline?!"
"What's different about Yunzhi's bloodline?" Helan Qiao seemed a little confused.
"It's not just because of the interstellar energy core. To have an energy core, there is another requirement." Leng Yuzhou stared at Fu Yunzhi, as if saying something.
Fu Yunzhi is different. Helan Qiao knew the requirement of having an energy core from the first time they met... Could it be that?
As we all know, there was a race in ancient times that was an indispensable part of the world and nature, and that was humans. In fact, the fact that they could have animal forms was also the inevitable result of social development. Their ancestors were all ancient humans. If this was true, Fu Yunzhi would definitely be taken back to the empire for experiments. Not only was she an energy core, but she was also a precious ancient human bloodline. The empire had been conducting experiments in this area, hoping to breed more pure-blooded ancient humans, but they had undoubtedly failed. In the end, what was bred were all interstellar humans. They looked the same as ancient humans, but they were much stronger than ancient humans in every aspect.
An empire only needs to be easy to control.
If this is really what he thought, then from now on, Fu Yunzhi will attract more people to covet her, and may even be in danger of being killed.
Leng Yuzhou said nothing more. He ripped open Fu Yunzhi's collar, revealing her fair neck. He lowered his head, pressed his cold lips against her skin, and gently swept his tongue across her carotid artery.
"The contract... requires your blood..." Leng Yuzhou's voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of bewitching tone.
Fu Yunzhi only felt a tingling sensation coming from her neck and instantly spread throughout her body. She couldn't help but shiver.
At this moment, Tia Mir suddenly let out a shrill scream. He held his head with his hands, curled up on the ground in pain, and kept chanting an ancient and sad song.
That is the chant of the mermaids, and they will only sing it when the mermaids face disaster.
"Oh no! He activated the ruins' self-destruct program!" Helan Qiao shouted in horror.
"What?!"
Before everyone could react, an even more violent roar came from the depths of the ruins, and the entire ruins began to tremble violently, as if it would completely collapse in the next second.
"Stop him!" Fu Yunzhi shouted, but it was too late.
At this critical moment, Chen Yuntan suddenly jumped and rushed into the core room of the ruins.
