Chapter 136.
After the last batch of meteorites landed in Stone City, Core Sanctuary sent a group of experts to Stone City, an armed force to accompany them, and, at the same time, borrowed Zhang Kun, a spatial alien from Team B, in order to bring the meteorites back.
Sheng An was uneasy and had Liu Yue and Ke Jiaxue accompany him.
Water and fire powers are the two easiest powers to survive outside at the moment, and they are all early-awakened aliens, so no matter if they are just-awakened aliens or fae, it’s impossible to beat them.
Yet, he didn’t expect that something would still happen!
Moreover, the word “fae” was not just one or two fae.
Sheng An’s face was very ugly, and he lifted his foot and headed out, “Go to the communications department.”
The others froze, somewhat confused.
Lou Mingwei: “What happened?”
Hao Jingye immediately followed, “Whatever, go and take a look first!”
Thus, the entire group B followed.
Li Xin did not forget to fish up the cat just named “Shanhua”, after all, it is now also a member of Group B. With all the members here, the cat cannot be missing.
Hands did not empty, mountain flower very cooperative.
Only a few people from Group A were left behind, looking at each other in dismay.
Ruan Zifeng: “Let’s go find Team Leader Qiu first, it feels like something big has happened, and everyone should be notified soon.”
Communications Department.
Both Elder Zhang and Elder Li had already arrived, one of the two was Sheng An’s direct leader and the other was Qiu Yu’s direct leader.
Just like Sheng An and Qiu Yu, they were usually noisy, but in front of big events, everything was about big events.
Qiu Yu was also there, she was already reporting to Elder Li and received the news and followed her.
Wan Wan looked unsightly: “Eight hours ago, the feedback from the scientific research group indicated that several of the meteorites in this batch in Stone City were carrying debris, and the large concentration of debris has made the situation in Stone City very bad.
“The area around the meteorite has been burned cleanly, the fire is spreading outwards, there’s no way to put it out, and there’s even no way to establish a quarantine zone because it’s sweeping too fast.”
There was no way to put out the fire, but not only was the stone city on fire, even the area around the capital was burning, and the sky was dry, so even if all forces were deployed, there was no way to stop the fire.
Zhang Lao nodded, signaling him to continue.
Wan Wan: “Therefore, the scientific research group chose the helicopter to enter Stone City, landed around the meteorite, and after checking the meteorite’s condition, they were prepared to directly take away all the meteorites.”
Elder Li: “This plan is fine, what happened afterward?”
Wan Wan took a deep breath, “Six hours ago, they managed to bypass the fire to approach the meteorite and found a suitable landing site.
“Four hours ago, they delivered the penultimate news, the meteorite fragments in Stone City are not only numerous, but also not small, causing the ground in Stone City to have been drastically altered, and they applied for the establishment of a meteorite research institute in Stone City.”
The meteorites were large and numerous, multiple institutes were built outside the shelter, and, not only did the meteorites have research value, the research value of the meteorites’ effects on the earth was also great.
Wan Wan: “Two hours ago, they sent one last message, first letting Zhang Kun and Ke Jiaxue and the others send back the meteorite fragments, asking us to prepare for the reception.”
After a pause, he looked obscure: “But after that, there was no more news, we kept contacting all of them, stone silent, all communications are disconnected, after repeated signal searches, we are sure – the plane that transported the meteorite fragments back was shot down just after it set sail. ”
Elder Zhang and Elder Li’s hearts sank.
Disappearing just after setting sail, that meant they had been in trouble for two hours.
“How can we be sure that it was the Fae who attacked?” Elder Zhang frowned.
Wan Wan pulled up various reports, “Because, the returning helicopter suffered multiple attacks.”
Nowadays, it was already the end times.
There were constant disasters outside, and each of their helicopters that went out on missions had undergone multiple modifications and were absolutely hard and solid.
Moreover, due to the destruction of the satellites, the helicopter’s signals were transmitted over from the core refuge, and what had happened to the aircraft, they were able to surmise based on the feedback from the signals.
When the others could not be contacted, what happened to the airplane was the same as what happened to the others.
With multiple attacks, there was naturally more than one Fae.
After Wan Wan finished speaking, the atmosphere became heavier and heavier.
After thinking about it, Elder Zhang said, “The country must immediately send someone to check it out.”
Elder Li nodded and shook his head again, “I don’t oppose sending people to check it out, but the scientific research group sent out this time has five xenos, spatial xenos don’t count, and water and fire are all high level xenos that have awakened ahead of time, the crisis in the stone city is not a simple one, and acting hastily may result in the loss of more people.”
Zhang Lao looked at him, “Time waits for no one, what if they are still alive and waiting to be rescued? People should be sent immediately.”
Elder Li looked back at him, “What if they are dead, how many to go and how many to fold? One should probe and analyze the situation before acting.”
The two had different views, each with their own reasoning, and confronted each other.
“Tick-tock–”
Red lights flashed on the big screen, and Wan Yuan received the latest news.
“News just came in from C9 Refuge, there are four Fae fleeing from the refuge, and the direction is Stone City!”
He stared tightly at the screen, his voice obscure, “News has also come in from D3, a fae has escaped.”
After the fae awakened, they either hid or killed in blood, this was the first time they had encountered an orderly exodus of the fae, no need to think, it must be to Stone City.
Elder Zhang and Elder Li’s faces became very ugly in an instant, with hidden anxiety and worry.
Qiu Yu stepped forward with a sharp gaze, “Elder Li, let me go to Stone City and see what’s going on.”
Outside the door, Sheng An’s voice rang out-
“I’ll go, no matter what has happened or is preparing to happen in Stone City, a fae organized and connected operation must be nipped in the bud for them.”
She walked in through the door, the wind of her walk carrying the corners of her punching bag, her brow sharp and cold with a murderous aura, sharp as a tack.
Behind her followed the entire team of Team B, each already in a state of readiness.
Their teammates are in Stone City, live to see people die to see the body, they must go to pick up.
Stone City.
Zhang Kun gasped and breathed heavily, “You guys put me down and escape separately, you must find a way to get out and report the situation here.”
The armed force accompanying him this time was led by Captain Zhuo, who was holding a gun in his hand and was covered in scars, yet he still led the team to protect the few people in the center.
At that, his voice was hoarse, “No, there are meteorite fragments in your space, since the fae want to grab them, there must be a reason, we can’t give things away to the fae.”
Liu Yue and Ke Jiaxue were in a worse situation, having already exhausted their fae powers, Liu Yue had a broken hand, his clothes were covered in blood stains and dust, he was in a sorry state.
Liu Yue suddenly changed his expression, “They’re catching up, hurry!”
Captain Zhuo gritted his teeth and split the only remaining people into two, pointing at a portion of them, “You guys escort Zhang Kun and Dr. Zhao and the others away, the rest of you and I will stay!”
Liu Yue was in a rage.
They had already lost too many people, and they had to watch these people die?
He took a step forward, feeling the energy that was slowly building up inside his body, and his voice was firm, “I’ll stay too, you guys go.”
“No way-” Ke Jiaxue objected, “You go and I’ll stay, there are fires everywhere, your supernatural energy is needed.”
Captain Zhuo didn’t say much and directly pushed them forward:
“Don’t talk nonsense, hurry up, make sure to send the shards and the message out!”
