"What happened? Where is your Captain Meng?" Kang Shanxing asked first.
The nine team members stood in front of Huo Yushen, and they all found it difficult to bear his gaze.
One by one, they lowered their heads and began to speak.
"We all knew beforehand that the natural environment there was very poor and dangerous, but we didn't know there were many monsters from the same clan as the relic species there. They were so powerful that even S-level psychics couldn't compete with them."
"Thus, those members of the team below S-rank quickly died after their mechas were damaged."
Huo Yushen raised his head and said in surprise: "There are relic species there? What kind of species are they?"
The team members recalled and described them to him one by one.
"There was a black goat's head as tall as a mountain, hidden in thick tentacles."
"There are reptiles covered in scales that live in the abyss. Those scales look like eyes."
"There are also large birds with scales on their wings, and a brain mountain that looks like a brain."
"The most amazing thing is the silhouette behind a door in the sky. It looks like a human figure, but it's definitely not a human!"
…
Everyone was talking at once, and when they talked about the door in the sky and the human silhouette behind the door, his pupils suddenly shrank.
But his expression didn't change, and he didn't ask any further questions. Instead, he patiently waited for everyone to finish speaking before calmly asking, "Is that all? Can't you just run away when you can't fight? You're all veterans, and you still need me to teach you something so simple?"
The nine surviving team members lowered their heads in shame.
Huo Yushen looked at them with his hands behind his back and said, "Let's get to the point. Where is Captain Meng?"
The team members looked at each other and let the previous team member speak.
The team member had no choice but to repeat himself: "The situation suddenly worsened. Captain Meng opened the wormhole, but he told us to go first and he would cover the rear. In the end, when we all came out, the wormhole disappeared, and he didn't show up either..."
Huo Yushen quickly asked, "Does that mean the small wormhole opening device is still with your team, Captain Meng?"
Fortunately, the situation is not particularly bad.
As long as Meng Guanghui still has the instrument, it won’t be a big problem.
Meng Guanghui had taken on more dangerous missions before, so he wouldn't fail so badly on this one.
As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, he felt the magnetic field here change.
His perception was even ahead of his instruments.
Five minutes later, Ge Jiangan came running over excitedly and said, "Inspector Huo! There's another sign of a small wormhole opening over there! Captain Meng is coming back!"
Huo Yushen said nothing and looked up into the air.
Not long after, a black vortex appeared again, and the interlaced rotation of black and white appeared in front of everyone.
The nine team members cheered together: "Captain Meng!
"It's Captain Meng!"
"Captain Meng is coming back!"
Only Huo Yushen noticed one detail.
He asked, "Why is the vortex of the wormhole black? It used to be silvery white."
The nine team members then remembered that they had forgotten to tell Huo Yushen that they were rescued by the mechanical intelligence from five hundred years later.
But at this time, the black vortex was moving faster and faster, much faster than when they appeared.
So when they wanted to speak, Huo Yushen raised his hand to stop them.
He stared intently at the whirlpool, which was black on the outside and silvery-white on the inside, like two fish, one black and one white, chasing each other, and felt vaguely that something was wrong.
Soon, the black and white were broken by a little red light, as if it was the fire that created the world, or as if it was a star falling from the sky. A shiny fiery red object flew out from the black vortex with a snap.
It was very small, but its entire body was surrounded by crackling blue-purple electric light, as if a miniature lightning bolt had passed through a wormhole and been teleported here.
Kang Shanxing suddenly jumped up, flew into the air, and reached out to grab the thing.
The thing seemed to suddenly lose all power and fell straight down.
Kang Shanxing changed the direction of flight again and finally caught it before it landed.
But as soon as he got the thing in his hand, the blue-purple electric light immediately became stronger, enveloping Kang Shanxing completely.
Standing on the ground and looking up, I saw Kang Shanxing turned into a human-shaped lightning, struggling desperately in mid-air.
Huo Yushen immediately jumped up and flew towards Kang Shanxing.
He grabbed Kang Shanxing and snatched the red object from his hand.
The lightning on Kang Shanxing's body disappeared immediately, but his head and face were already black, and even his clothes were full of holes.
His eyes went dark and he fainted.
Huo Yushen grabbed him with one hand and dropped the red object to the ground with the other hand.
As soon as the blue-purple electric light from the red object came out, it was extinguished by Huo Yushen's slap.
Then, a steel backpack fell out from the black vortex in the air.
Finally, a black cylindrical object fell out.
