Gt9421 has only two seasons, winter and summer. The winter is extremely cold, and most creatures will hide to spend the harsh winter. Only when summer comes will these creatures come out of their holes or soil again.
Therefore, summer is the busiest season at the Dragon Stone base. Mercenaries and the army will rush to this planet to hunt during this season, so they basically work for half a year and then stop for half a year.
Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou certainly did not come here to hunt the wild beasts on this planet.
In Fang's memory, Gao Han saw that the headquarters of Tianjiao was located on the star Gt9421.
The Dragon Stone Base has a special transport spacecraft. As long as you pay a certain amount of money, you can take it to a fixed location.
Gt9421 is too big, and they don’t know how far they will have to fly, so the two of them signed up to board the spacecraft.
"We're going to number 21."
When the middle-aged man in charge of collecting fees heard that they were going to No. 21, he couldn't help but look up and glanced at them in surprise.
"What? Can't you go?" Gao Han looked at him with a strange expression.
The middle-aged man came to his senses and said, "It's not that we can't go, but no one has been sitting at the terminal for a long time. You look a little unfamiliar. Is this your first time here?"
"good."
"You're quite brave to go to No. 21 on your first visit. Do you know where No. 21 is?"
"I know. It's a place called Via Heights. Is there anything wrong with this place?" Gao Han asked modestly. They didn't deliberately inquire about anything. They only knew that in Fangya's memory, the headquarters of Tianjiao was located on Via Heights.
"It's a life-or-death experience. I've been charging here for 30 years. I've met many people who wanted to explore Via Highlands, but every time, either no one came back, or more than a dozen people went, but only one or two came back alive." The middle-aged man said with a smile, "Do you still want to go now?"
"Thank you for your reminder, but we still have to go." Gao Han also responded with a smile.
The middle-aged man shook his head. "Forget it. I knew you would say that. I have said this to others, but no one has changed their mind."
"Then why do you still want to say it?" Gao Han asked curiously.
The middle-aged man sighed, "If you can save a life, save it. You can't just watch someone die. It's still a life after all."
"You are very kind." Gao Han changed his address.
The middle-aged man laughed. "It only takes a sentence or two. It's not a big deal. But I still want to advise you. If you want to go to Via Heights, it's best not to go too deep. There are a lot of evil things in there."
"Oh? What's that weird method?" Gao Han asked with interest.
"According to those who came back alive, they didn't see anything happen. They didn't even see the shadow of the monster. People around them just died one by one. Sometimes people were standing next to them and suddenly died. They all have one thing in common: they had been deep into Via Highlands."
After hearing this, Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou were 90% sure that it was not a monster that killed them, but the Heavenly Cult.
If the Tianjiao's headquarters is in Via Heights, they certainly don't want people to find out about it, so they would kill anyone who sees the Tianjiao's headquarters and create a horror legend about Via Heights, making people more and more fearful and stop going to Via Heights.
The middle-aged man hasn't met anyone who wants to go to Via Heights in recent years, and a big reason for this is because of this legend.
Of course, sometimes legends cannot scare some desperadoes, and another reason why people no longer go to Via Heights is that Via Heights does not have what they want.
“Young man, I’m not kidding. If you want to go to Weilai Heights, don’t go too deep and nothing will happen.” The middle-aged man said seriously, hoping they would listen to him.
"Thank you for the reminder." Gao Han nodded in thanks.
Seeing that they didn't seem to take it seriously, the middle-aged man shook his head and processed their boarding procedures.
Ten minutes later, the spaceship started up and flew with a crew on board to a place farther away from the Dragon Stone base.
The spacecraft has a total of 21 landing points, each of which is represented by a number. After arriving at each station, the spacecraft will stop for three minutes.
There is only this one line, and basically there will be a spaceship every half an hour. This is so frequent in summer. If it is winter, the number of spaceships will be halved. Once you encounter danger and cannot board the spaceship in time, the probability of death is also high.
At each station, people got off one after another. As time went by, fewer and fewer people got off. In the end, there were only two people left on the spaceship.
The man guarding the cabin cast surprised glances at them several times.
"We've arrived at Station 21." After receiving the message, the other party notified Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou, and watched them go down with a look of pity. Two more people were going to die. The chance of seeing them again might not be high.
Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou got off the ship and looked around. The landing point of the spacecraft was on a very wide flat ground.
This flat land was once a big mountain, but it was later flattened in the middle to serve as a landing point for spacecraft.
In the distance, there is a continent rising from a vast primeval forest. That is the Via Highlands.
Because of the legend of Via Heights, the spacecraft will not actually land on Via Heights, but will choose the nearest mountain to drop the people off.
When the spaceship disappeared from view, the two men rose from the ground and flew towards Via Heights with the wind, like two rockets, and soon entered the range of Via Heights.
Unlike other people, they did not need to wander around in the forest, but directly searched for the headquarters of the Qi Tian Sect in the air. During the search, they encountered attacks from some aerial creatures. This was one of the reasons why the spacecraft did not dare to enter the Via Highlands.
These creatures are varied, some are huge, and the impact will make the spacecraft unable to withstand, some are small and troublesome, and they will drill into the spacecraft's engine if you are not careful. Too many of them will directly cause the engine to stall and crash. After a few times, no matter what kind of spacecraft it is, no one dares to enter the sky above Via Highlands again.
The Via Highlands were very large. When they looked down from the heights, they saw lush forests, mountain ranges, and hills and mountains stretching endlessly, winding around the entire Via Highlands.
The Tianjiao headquarters hidden in it would be difficult to detect even with a satellite, not to mention that there is no satellite on this planet. Because of the planet's aura, detection satellites cannot be launched into space.
It is also for this reason that even though the Sirius Empire knew that there was abundant energy on this planet, it could not send a large army to clean it up completely. Without confirming the situation of the planet, they did not dare to act rashly, otherwise there was a high probability that they would cause large-scale attacks by the creatures living here.
But these restrictions were useless to Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou. With their spiritual sense extended, they soon found the headquarters of Tianjiao.
After a while, the two of them landed on the outskirts of the Tianjiao headquarters. The Tianjiao, which was covered by divine consciousness, was shrouded in a black atmosphere, lifeless, and there was almost no sign of human activity.
After breaking the psychedelic formation outside the Tianjiao, the two came to the square of the Tianjiao headquarters.
In the large square of more than 2,000 square meters, there was not a single person in sight, and the gray-black castle sat in dead silence.
"Are we a step too late?" Gao Han frowned. He could hardly see anyone in the area covered by his spiritual sense. The entire castle was empty.
According to the memories he obtained, there were always people at the Tianjiao's headquarters, and they never came out in full force. This phenomenon showed that after the failure of Tianjiao's operation on Haitian Star, they became alert and withdrew overnight.
Gao Han was already very careful and tried not to kill the captured believers alive, for he was worried that they would notice something unusual.
Zhongli Tingzhou walked around the castle and came to the room where the soul tablets of all the important believers of Tianjiao were placed.
Except for the soul card that had lost its light, the others had been taken away and were lying here and there. Some of them were scattered on the ground, as if they had been accidentally bumped into when they were collected in a hurry.
"It seems like they really withdrew." Gao Han's heart was shrouded in a gloom.
"They did withdraw, but there may be opportunities." Zhongli Tingzhou snorted, "Such a large sect, if they withdraw so easily, they must have another place to stay. Moreover, if a spaceship wants to leave here, someone will definitely notice it. Let the Sirius Empire check and know which direction they went."
The two returned to the Dragon Stone base and found the Sirius army stationed there.
The head of the army had no idea what had happened on Neptune. Naturally, he would not obey orders when two strangers suddenly came and asked them to investigate the spaceships that left the planet from yesterday to today.
After being forcefully suppressed by Gao Han, the officer in charge realized their strength and reluctantly ordered people to investigate.
As soon as the two men left, the officer immediately reported the news to Neptune and asked them to send powerful cultivators to deal with the two arrogant cultivators.
Fortunately, the person in charge of the connection on Neptune's side was careful and asked the other party to send over the photos of the two of them.
There are surveillance cameras inside and outside the base, so it is not difficult to take a screenshot of a picture.
When they saw the two people in the photo, those who had the honor of meeting Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou took a breath, wondering how these two murderers could have come to the planet Gt9421. They immediately asked the officers in charge to fully cooperate with them.
“Don’t ask anything. No matter what they want to do, as long as it is not detrimental to the empire, just cooperate and don’t do anything unnecessary without authorization.” The contact person said seriously, interrupting the officer’s words.
The officer was not a stubborn person. Seeing the contact person's serious expression as if the sky was about to fall, he trembled in his heart and quickly agreed, not daring to ask any more questions.
With their cooperation, as expected, early this morning, before dawn, an unregistered spacecraft secretly left Gt9421.
Seeing the star map above, Gao Han zoomed out, and a more comprehensive galaxy map appeared in front of them. Moving forward, he saw the final direction in which the spacecraft left.
"If this spaceship has sufficient energy, where is the most likely place to replenish energy next?" Gao Han asked.
