Mou Xuan stood in front of the huge screen in the alliance control center. Various complex data streams flashed on the screen, which was dazzling.
He took a deep breath and said solemnly into the microphone: "Captain Li, are you ready? This exploration of the ruins is of great importance, so be careful."
The firm and powerful voice of Li, the ruins explorer, came from the microphone: "Don't worry, boss! I will complete the mission! If you don't succeed, you will die!"
The corner of Mou Xuan's mouth twitched slightly. Captain Li is still so passionate.
However, this kind of spirit of moving forward is also needed at the moment.
"Good luck."
Watching the ruins explorer Li leading the team to set off, Mou Xuan still felt a little worried.
The ruins are ancient and mysterious, full of unknown dangers.
I hope Captain Li and his team can return safely.
"Boss, do you want me to help too?" Chen Yao walked over and asked with concern.
Her bright eyes were filled with worry.
Mou Xuan shook his head and said gently, "No need. You stay here and help me deal with the affairs of the alliance. Besides, the situation in the ruins is unclear, so it would be more appropriate for me to go."
Chen Yao knew Mou Xuan's strength, so she stopped insisting. "Then be careful."
At the same time, in the Alliance's laboratory, Soul Expert Zhou was scratching his head in front of a bunch of instruments.
He had messy hair and bloodshot eyes, and it was obvious that he hadn't had a good rest for a long time.
"This is impossible! According to my theory, there should be traces of soul exchange! Why don't these data match up at all?" Soul expert Zhou pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose and muttered to himself.
The table in front of him was filled with all kinds of information, including data and research reports about soul exchangers.
However, in his eyes, these materials seemed like a tangled mess that he couldn't make any sense of.
"Could it be that my theory is wrong?" Soul Expert Zhou doubted himself.
He has devoted countless efforts to studying soul phenomena.
If his theory is wrong, then wouldn't all his previous efforts be in vain?
He closed his eyes in pain and rubbed his sore temples.
Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something and opened his eyes abruptly.
"No! There must be something I haven't considered! Soul exchange must follow some rules!"
He picked up another piece of document and read it carefully, trying to find a breakthrough.
However, as time passed, he still gained nothing.
"No! I can't give up! I must find the secret of soul exchange!" Soul expert Zhou gritted his teeth and devoted himself to research again.
The scene switches to the depths of the ruins.
Ruins Explorer Li led his team and walked carefully in a dark passage.
Various ancient patterns are carved on the walls on both sides of the passage, exuding a strange atmosphere.
"Everyone be careful! There may be a trap here!" Ruins Explorer Li warned in a low voice.
He held the detector and observed the surrounding environment vigilantly.
Suddenly, there was a slight "click" sound under his feet. not good! It's a trap!
Before ruins explorer Li could react, the walls on both sides of the passage suddenly began to move and quickly closed in the middle.
"Run!" he shouted.
However, it was too late. The width of the passage became narrower and narrower, and they had no time to escape.
"Boom!" With a loud bang, the passage was completely closed, trapping ruins explorer Li and his team members in a small space.
"Damn! What the hell is this place!" a team member couldn't help but curse.
Ruins Explorer Li did not speak, he calmly observed the surrounding environment.
The space is very small, only a few square meters in size, and is surrounded by solid stone walls.
The stone wall was engraved with dense runes, emitting a faint light.
"Don't panic, everyone! We can definitely get out!" Ruins Explorer Li encouraged.
He took out tools from his backpack and began trying to open the stone wall.
However, no matter how hard he tried, the stone wall did not move at all.
These stone walls seemed to be made of some special material, extremely hard and impossible to destroy.
"Captain, it's no use! This stone wall is too hard and can't be opened at all!" said a team member in frustration.
Ruins Explorer Li was also somewhat desperate. Are they going to be trapped and die here?
At this moment, he suddenly felt a strange energy fluctuation.
This energy fluctuation comes from the runes on the stone wall.
"Everyone be careful! There's something wrong with these runes!" Ruins Explorer Li warned loudly.
However, it was too late.
The runes on the stone wall suddenly lit up, emitting a dazzling light.
A powerful energy surged out from the rune and instantly enveloped the entire space.
"Ah!" The team members screamed and fell to the ground one after another.
Their bodies began to twist and deform under the impact of the energy.
Ruins Explorer Li also felt a sharp pain, and he felt as if his soul was being torn apart.
He clenched his teeth and tried hard to resist the erosion of this energy.
Just when he was about to collapse, an old voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
"Young man, do you want to live?"
Ruins Explorer Li suddenly raised his head and saw an old man in a gray robe appearing out of thin air in front of him.
The old man had white hair and beard and a haggard face, but his eyes were extremely deep, as if he could see through everything.
