the other side.
Lan Xinyou led everyone to the entrance of the base. It was the second time she stood here to pick up people.
She was raised as a pre-selected successor, so she didn't have to do everything like the others.
She can count on one hand the number of times she has done farm work, such as farming, feeding pigs and raising chickens.
Reminiscing about the last time she stood at the entrance to pick up someone, she was waiting for the former commander-in-chief to return from a victorious battle.
"Commander Lan, Yuan Qing'er from Team T07 is expected to arrive at the entrance in thirteen minutes. We can now prepare for the ceremony to open the entrance."
After hearing this, she first glanced at the stone tablet standing at the entrance. The dense cracks on it were intertwined like a spider web, as if she would turn into powder in an instant if she touched it lightly.
She still remembered what the former commander-in-chief said before his death. Once the stone tablet was completely broken, the Moon Shadow Formation would be ineffective. She must take everyone to move before then, or find Dixiu to repair the Moon Shadow Formation. .
It seems that transfer is impossible now, and Di Xiu will not be found for a while.
Fortunately, in another village, Yuan Qing'er found another demon clan and said that it was possible to repair the Moon Shadow Formation.
Because no one is willing to leave here, no matter what the old stubborns say, she has to let the demon clan give it a try. After all, it is better to have hope than to give up completely.
"Then let's arrange it and prepare to start the ceremony."
After Lan Xinyou finished speaking, she changed her previous unruly look. She took out a transparent crystal from the wisdom ring space and held it tightly in her hand.
Upon seeing this, the crowd that came to watch immediately dispersed, leaving only a few people who were hosting the ceremony.
She looked up at the red-purple sky, waiting for the last golden light to disappear.
The few people in charge of the opening ceremony waved the bone hammers in their hands and hit the drum surface made of cowhide, making muffled sounds one after another.
As the drums became louder and faster, they chanted complex and obscure incantations.
Lan Xinyou concentrated her attention and placed the crystal on the high platform in front of her the moment the sun completely set.
When the bright moon rose, the first beam of moonlight fell.
The cold moonlight hit the crystal, and a faint blue light emitted in an instant.
Seeing this, she immediately took a few steps back to the edge to make room for those who were still chanting spells.
They kept beating the cowhide drum, and the sound was louder than before, as if thunder fell from the sky.
Within a few seconds, a blue light suddenly cut through the night sky and hit the crystal.
Before she could see clearly, the light on the crystal suddenly increased, making it impossible to see directly with the naked eye, which made her close her eyes involuntarily.
When vision is affected, hearing will be particularly sensitive.
Lan Xinyou suddenly heard a sweet female voice that seemed almost non-existent. It was ethereal and seemed to be far away. It calmed her restless mind like water flowing in the mountains.
This sound can only be heard by the person who puts down the crystal every time. Therefore, those who are watching and those who are still beating the drum do not know that she will hear this female voice when the formation is started.
At first she was surprised, but over time she got used to it.
Although the Thirteenth Military Region has been working hard to isolate itself from the world, they are not yet completely self-sufficient.
Therefore, a portal must be opened every month, allowing people to go out to other planets to purchase supplies, and then wait until the next month to bring the supplies back.
It was precisely because of this that she got used to this ethereal female voice.
And the weirdest thing is that every time she wants to tell others about this, she is restricted by some mysterious power, and she can't do it no matter she wants to say or write.
But it didn't matter, she didn't encounter other strange things besides that, so she didn't care much about it.
"...The moonlight is hazy...There is nowhere to hide...Moon, please be more visible...Please illuminate the smiles on our faces..."
Lan Xinyou closed her eyes tightly and listened to the people presiding over the ceremony singing loudly, while the mysterious female voice also gently echoed.
She had started this ritual several times, so she was familiar with the words to be sung.
But just as the singing was about to end, she suddenly heard the female voice getting louder. The key was that it was clearer than before, as if someone was speaking in her ear.
"...Moon, please be more visible, take me away from this noisy world...Moon, please shed some more light, so that I can have a place to hide when I can't cry..."
To be honest, Lan Xinyou was a little panicked at first, but the female voice quickly calmed her down.
But before she could calm down for long, she was shocked by the next sentence.
Because this was not the original chant at all, she was so shocked that her eyes widened for a moment.
Just at this time, the opening ceremony ended, and the dazzling light became softer.
I saw the halo of the crystal projected onto the stone tablet, and then the scene there became blurry.
In the blink of an eye, a large circle-shaped door appeared.
Upon seeing this, the soldiers who followed immediately walked over quickly and guarded the entrance to the outside world according to the rules.
The next second, a delicate figure came in.
"Team T07 Yuan Qing'er arrived at the headquarters base safely!"
After the other party's words fell, one of the guarding soldiers walked out and began to check the identity token to verify his identity.
"Commander Lan, the members of Team T07 are back!"
Lan Xinyou's thoughts were still wandering outside, but were suddenly called back by the adjutant's words.
She quickly shook her head to wake up, and then looked at the group of people walking in from the entrance.
She naturally recognized Yuan Qing'er. His brother was a very good warrior, so she had met him several times.
"Report to the Commander-in-Chief! I have successfully completed the mission!" After Yuan Qing'er's identity was verified, she hurried over.
Seeing this, she just smiled slightly and said, "Just come back safely. Where are the two guests you mentioned? Did you come back with them?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the other party pointed not far away and said: "Report to the Commander-in-Chief! Miss Leng and Mr. Mirage are here!"
She looked in the direction pointed by Yuan Qing'er, and as expected she saw two strangers.
The young man was wearing a black robe, which seemed to be a traditional costume of ancient China and the favorite clothes of the demon clan.
The other person's eyebrows are prominent and the corners of his eyes are slightly raised, giving him a charming but cold beauty.
The light-colored eyes are as calm as deep pool water, making it difficult for people to see through.
As if aware of her appraising gaze, the man looked at her with a cold face.
So she silently looked away and looked at the girl standing aside.
