"Across the planet?!" Li Wenxi was immediately shocked. "So powerful! The aliens have such advanced technology!"
"They're indeed very powerful. If they weren't, how could they have crossed the galaxy to reach us?" Xu Ying sat on the sofa, leaning her head back. "The thought of going against them gives me a headache..."
Then she shook her head sharply, regaining consciousness, and explained to Li Wenxi again, "So, stability and long distance are the advantages of the teleportation device, but its disadvantages are very obvious, so there's no need to worry too much."
"But that passage is different. It was left by my brother. It's a fast passage for the underground world to reach the surface as quickly as possible. It has a strong ability to transport people together. If it's discovered and used against us after it's opened..."
Xu Ying frowned slightly: "If we're not careful, this place will be destroyed."
"Hmm... there's no need to worry so much, right? They're already capable of installing teleportation devices here. If they really want to launch a large-scale attack, they must have a way, right?"
Xu Ying shook her head. "No, I don't think they have the ability to attack the human base right now. Their permanent habitat is very far away from here, almost across half the planet. An expedition is not easy.
The presence of a teleportation device here is most likely related to the invasion of mutant creatures that began a hundred years ago.
My guess is that the mutant group continued to expand in the underground world for thousands of years, and eventually spread here, found this place, and let some bastard know about it.
So, that bastard sent someone with a teleportation device all the way here, placed it there, and then slowly infiltrated and eroded the underground world. They did this because they had no way to collectively attack here."
"But if they have this method, I'm afraid something big will happen..."
The more she spoke, the more anxious Xu Ying looked. She then stood up abruptly and said, "No, I have to go up and take a look. I can't let my brother open this passage in advance!"
"This..." Li Wenxi also stood up. "Do you want to go up? If we don't open this passage, will Xu Xin and the others have no way to get down?"
"It's not like it will never be opened, but now is not the time to open it." Xu Ying stamped her foot slightly, and a purple-black vortex began to appear beneath her. "We have to wait until the resources and weapons are fully equipped down there. The human base right now has no ability to resist, and even humans themselves can't believe it!"
As she spoke, she fell into the whirlpool and disappeared.
"It's moving so fast..." Li Wenxi sighed, sat back on the sofa, and said with admiration, "I also wish I could teleport so conveniently. A teleportation device... can that teleportation device actually travel across planets..."
…
"Don't move." Xu Xin stopped Lou Fei'er from twisting the stone statue earrings. "Don't trigger the mechanism now."
"Hmm?" Coco called out doubtfully from the statue.
"Why? Since we have found a way, let's open it first."
Although Lou Feier expressed some displeasure, she still took her hands off the stone earrings.
However, she hadn't given up trying to convince Xu Xin: "Since it's similar to your statue, maybe there's a crystal city underneath? If we activate that crystal city, wouldn't it be even stronger? And it would be easier to protect the World Tree, right?"
Xu Xin opened his mouth, but ultimately did not tell her the truth.
Although the entrance to the human base in the underground world was just his guess, it should be pretty close.
The fewer people who know about this, the better. Otherwise, if it gets to the ears of alien invaders, it will cause big problems.
"Hmm?" Keke jumped down from the statue's head and into Xu Xin's arms. She tilted her little head and looked at him, as if asking Xu Xin why he didn't trigger the mechanism.
"This matter is not that simple. Besides, we are now a team. It is not a good habit to do things alone. Some things still need to be discussed with the explorers before taking any action."
Xu Xin brought out everyone from the Explorers, and Lou Feier could only reluctantly accept: "Well, it's true that it's a bit dangerous for the two of us to go up. It should be much safer if we bring a few more people."
"Bringing more people would be even worse," Xu Xin objected. "We're currently in the World Tree protection phase. How can we let the main force protecting the World Tree do something that will take who knows how long?"
"Ah—what should I do then?" Lou Feier looked at the statue, then at Xu Xin. "You're not planning on moving this statue, are you?"
"At least let's wait until the World Tree siege is over." Xu Xin felt that he should play it safe.
Let’s complete the current goal first and protect the World Tree.
"Um... okay, okay." Lou Fei'er was a little disappointed and glanced at the statue anxiously. "Did you really just come to take a look? Okay, then are we going back now?"
"Well, there shouldn't be anything else here..."
“Bing!”
Before Xu Xin finished speaking, Keke suddenly cried out and pointed in a direction with her little paw.
Looking in the direction it pointed, behind the human-faced stone statue, a faint...purple-black light was emitting?
"What's going on?"
Lou Feier immediately flashed and quickly came to the back, looking carefully.
"It's a purple-black vortex! Teleport!" Her voice immediately became serious. "Something is coming out of it!"
She touched her waist with both hands and held two daggers in her hands, ready to strike at any time.
