The cloaked man didn't reveal anything, but simply shook his head. He looked at Lin Xun and Zheng Shanhe, raised his hand, and took out a portable teleportation array plate. "You two should leave quickly as well."
"Teacher, I'll stay and help you!"
However, the cloaked man left immediately after handing the array plate to Lin Xun. He disappeared in the blink of an eye, and even Lin Xun could not detect his location. Helpless, he had no choice but to activate the array plate and leave the dark world with Zheng Shanhe.
The passengers who were thrown into the time bus by the cloaked figures quickly recovered under the bus's healing. Mo Shuwan and her group were lucky enough to survive, but Zou Zhiqing, Arou, and Chen Leikai were unfortunately chosen by a mysterious entity and failed to return to the bus. In the end, only one person from her group returned to the bus alive.
Luo Baokun's team also lost two teammates, but because they could still sense their teammates' presence before the bus contract was automatically terminated, they felt that their teammates were still alive.
Luo Baokun was silent for a moment before asking Bus, "This situation is special. We didn't come back on our own. Can our other two teammates who couldn't get back to Bus come back?"
"I have no right to decide whether they come back or not."
Luo Baokun then fell silent again.
Now, inside the new G-01 bus, it's actually the bus that's talking more than the other passengers.
What happened to you? Why were you... sent back?
"I also want to ask you, why were you completely useless this time?" Mo Shuwan rolled her eyes, but since everyone had returned alive, she was in a pretty good mood.
The bus probably didn't know how to answer, and it fell silent after Mo Shuwan finished speaking.
They had only been in the dark world for five or six days and hadn't even completed the main quest yet. But it seemed that they had been sent back by some being above Bus, so Bus was also in a dilemma about how to calculate this mission.
Before the main mission is completed, the bus cannot return to the stop and can only wander aimlessly in the darkness.
Of the group, only Yun Chen and the two little dinosaurs remained unaffected, still crunching away at their crystals.
"I thought we were doomed this time!" Chen Jiaxu patted his chest, still looking terrified.
“So we do have our lucky moments too.” Mo Shuwan smiled and took out a jade pendant that she had been keeping in her storage space. “This jade pendant was given to us by the cloaked man who saved us just now. Although I have never seen his face, I have a vague feeling that he gave me the jade pendant.”
"Luckily, I left some last time..."
Wen Zuo smiled and said, "Yes, they saved our lives at a crucial moment."
"So, that person will come to your rescue when you're in mortal danger?"
Upon hearing this, Mo Shuwan shook her head. "It shouldn't be like that. If that were the case, he would probably be too busy to handle everything. The person who came to rescue Zheng Shanhe was an Inspector, so he must have been testing more than just me."
Liu Dongcheng nodded. "Then there should be a limit to the number of times."
"Yes, this might be the only chance."
However, Mo Shuwan was already very grateful and satisfied. If it weren't for the other party's sudden appearance, they would have really died at the hands of those guys.
Seeing that they still weren't getting to the point he wanted to hear, Chen Jiaxu couldn't help but suggest, "Why don't you discuss the issue of the bus? And the identities of those enemies?"
Mo Shuwan gave a helpless smile. "Judging from the reactions of Zheng Shanhe, Lin Xun, and the cloaked figures who came to our rescue, those guys are probably enemies from some larger world that we don't know about. Just like our own world, which has many countries and many provincial capitals, I guess there's an even larger place above these worlds, maybe it's the universe..."
Chen Jiaxu was listening with great interest, but when he saw that Mo Shuwan had stopped talking, he was stunned and asked, "Captain, why did you stop talking?"
"...This is too fantastical. Half a year ago, I was a complete shut-in."
Wen Zuo smiled, thinking that they hadn't officially met half a year ago.
"Anyway, based on the information we have now, there is a group of people or a race that has strong malice towards this 'universe' we live in, so the people living in this 'universe' have no choice but to resist those malicious enemies."
The term "universe" is currently only within their existing knowledge and understanding; whether it truly exists is beyond their comprehension, and they can only vaguely grasp its meaning.
Mo Shuwan pondered for a moment, thinking about the other party's attack methods, and sighed helplessly, "They are indeed very troublesome. Zheng Shanhe said that they cannot die. As long as there is darkness, they can survive. Moreover, they can imitate us. Their attack moves and power are exactly the same as ours, and even more powerful, because their attacks are corrosive."
Chen Jiaxu, who had been listening to a story, almost burst into tears. "In other words, even if we are lucky enough to escape their clutches now, we will still run into them again in the future."
Liu Dongcheng corrected him, "You're wrong, we won't run into them again."
Chen Jiaxu looked at Liu Dongcheng with hope, only to hear him say, "We will only encounter enemies who are the same as them, but even stronger."
Chen Jiaxu: "..." Damn it, you might as well not say anything.
"Liu Dongcheng is right, so we must not let our guard down in the mission worlds to come."
Everyone nodded emphatically, except for Yun Chen, who was still crunching on the crystal.
Mo Shuwan looked at Yun Chenjing squatting beside her and was about to try a more direct approach to talk to him when she noticed that Hope and Stratosphere, who were eating crystals with him, seemed to have undergone some changes. She paused, then reached out and patted Wen Zuo, "Look, hasn't Hope and Stratosphere grown a little bit now?"
