Qin Xiao and the others were still somewhat shaken. After resting on the spot for a while, they set off again for Kyoto.
It took three days to get there, and on the way back we rushed as fast as we could, finally arriving at the city wall post on the second night.
First, they connected to the network to verify their identity, and then entered the defense outpost for inspection.
The city's defenses will not be activated at night; entry into the city is only permitted during the day.
The group decided to rest at the outpost for the night, although the cost of resting there was a bit high.
The next morning, Qin Xiao and Ye Qinghuan, mother and daughter, came out of their room and knocked on the door of Wang Xinian and the other two.
The accommodations here are all suites, but due to the cost, everyone opted to share a room.
The six people reunited and arrived at the checkpoint.
This passage has several layers of light curtain detection, namely identity verification, hazard source verification, and pollution verification.
Qin Xiao had never left the city before and was not very familiar with these procedures.
The crowd lined up to pass through the passage, but just as Zhang Muye passed through, the pollution detection light screen on the third floor suddenly turned red.
The entire passage turned red instantly, and then the front and rear passages closed, completely sealing it off.
Qin Xiao frowned, becoming wary, but he didn't act rashly.
"Xiao Qin, it looks like we're in trouble. This is the first time I've ever seen a pollution detection system go off like this."
Ye Qingya looked solemn, while Qin Xiao became increasingly puzzled.
"Pollution testing? What does that mean?"
Ye Qingya shook her head. "I don't know, but every border checkpoint has this procedure, supposedly to prevent contamination by some strange beasts."
Even Ye Qingya, the mayor of Qingzhou, didn't know that this thing was rather strange.
Behind him, Wang Xinian's face was pale. "I've heard of pollution monitoring before. Since the capital was established, it has only sounded three times."
"Three times? Then... what will be the consequences?" Zhang Muye's face turned pale, and he was sweating profusely.
After all, he was the one who triggered the alarm, so it's hard not to be nervous.
"I don't know..." Wang Xinian said in a low voice.
Zhang Muye's legs were a little weak. "I don't know what you mean, Captain. I don't feel like there's anything wrong with me. What pollution or anything like that?"
The crowd waited silently. The passage had now been completely sealed off and turned into a metal cage.
Only the red lights on the metal walls continued to flicker, illuminating everyone's faces.
With a loud rumble, the metal cage shook, and it was clearly being moved.
Holy crap, did they just send it to be destroyed?
A bad feeling crept into Qin Xiao's mind.
Just in case, Qin Xiao summoned the Jianmu wood and began filling the entire interior of the cage.
Regardless of whether it can be stretched open, at least put on a layer of protection first.
The metal tunnel moved for about ten minutes, then stopped after a tremor.
Hiss~ Sizzle~
A surge of electricity rang out from the microphone, followed by a sound from above the crowd.
"Please do not panic. Cooperate with the Night Watch's inspection and do not do anything that could be misunderstood."
Qin Xiao looked towards the source of the sound, contracted a portion of the wood, and a projection appeared.
The other party was wearing a uniform and was fully armed, so their face could not be seen.
"How do we cooperate?" Qin Xiao asked immediately.
The man ignored him and started asking questions.
"Team leader Wang Xinian, team members Qin Xiao, Ye Qingya, Ye Qinghuan, Zhang Muye, Lin Ling."
We left the capital at 9:00 AM on September 17th and returned to our post at 7:00 PM on the 25th.
Please edit and upload your activity route in the wristband map, and compile your exploration experience into an upload.
From now on, whispering is prohibited. Everyone must submit a report within one hour.
At this moment, outside the passage cage, there is a dazzling starry sky, and the huge passage cage is suspended high above a swirling nebula with no end in sight.
However, none of the people here knew that this was a nebula vortex, because it was simply too enormous.
Only beneath the cage, in the deep darkness of the starry sky, could one vaguely see a slight distortion.
In just over ten minutes, everyone had been moved to an unknown location.
In a tightly sealed metal command room, which is not even in the same space.
"Sir, the pollution level is level three. Should we report this to the Council of the Imperial Temple?"
In front of the huge floor-to-ceiling glass, a burly man in a dimensional army uniform stood up and looked at the small black dot hanging in the distance.
"Report this immediately and send all the uploaded materials together."
"Yes, sir!"
Far beyond countless planes, atop a suspended mountain, a rootless waterfall roars.
A young man dressed in a purplish-black brocade robe was fishing in a pavilion on the edge of a suspended mountain.
The long fishing line was almost invisible, shimmering faintly as it disappeared into an unknown space.
Beep beep beep~
On my wrist, a bracelet decorated with a gold wristband beeped with a notification.
The young man pursed his lips and casually opened his communication device.
Lines of text appeared before my eyes.
Mission: Pollution of the Imperial Capital Border Garrison
Pollution level: Level 3
Pollution type: Tidal Beast
Relevant personnel: Qin Xiao [Information], Ye Qingya [Information], Wang Xinian [Information]...
Recommendation: If the contamination continues to decrease, appropriate action may be taken.
"Ha, heaven is on my side! In this day and age, there are still monstrous beasts that deliver themselves to my doorstep, hahaha."
The young man's smile spread, he stood up, and with a casual flick of his wrist, the fishing rod disappeared.
As the silk threads entered his body, a gigantic ancient star beast was pulled out of the spatial interlayer.
This colossal celestial beast, which had stretched for thousands of miles, shrank to the size of a palm in the blink of an eye.
The young man grabbed it by the tail and casually tossed it into a pond some distance away. A large group of small fish scattered and hid in the pond.
The young man took a step, and in the blink of an eye, the world changed, and he arrived at a closed space filled with teleportation portals.
"Let me find out, which one is the Starry Sea Dark Silence Secret Realm again?"
Just then, the bracelet rang again, and the young man opened the message.
Jin Lie Wang: Li Yu, this Qin Xiao is a newcomer in the industry, so be careful. It's rare to find such a promising talent.
Sikong Wang: Enough talk. How come I didn't know there were new people in the circle? What's their quality?
King Jin Lie: He's much fiercer than we were when we were young. Stop talking nonsense and hurry up and release him.
Li Yu turned off the bracelet, found the portal to the dark and silent starry sea, and stepped into it.
Inside the passageway, like a cage.
The group had already written down everything about their experiences, and Qin Xiao had finished writing as well. They even didn't hide Yun Yun's spiritual weapon.
There's no need for that. Since a problem has arisen, let's address it first.
Half an hour later, the passageway cage began to vibrate and move again.
After a while, the cage suddenly opened on all four sides, like a box.
Qin Xiao and his six companions surveyed their surroundings.
It looked like the interior of a high-tech spaceship, filled with all sorts of incomprehensible screens and control devices.
Directly in front, a dozen fully armed figures were guarding a young man dressed in a purple-black brocade robe.
To be honest, this ancient costume and brocade robe look really out of place in this environment.
