"There is no body..."
Beru was also slightly stunned for a moment, but he immediately reacted.
Yes, why is there no body?
He subconsciously ignored this problem before because of those shadow demons.
Along the way, he and the exploration team encountered many attacks. However, because of his strong strength, he did not take the attacking monsters seriously, and almost all of them were easily defeated.
What they saw and heard along the way also subconsciously affected their judgment. That is, the monsters that the Hurricane Team encountered before were also shadow demons like them.
However, is this really the case?
You must know that the GTBU base is a containment base. In addition to monsters like Shadow Demon, there should be a large number of other containment objects inside.
But the reality is that after they arrived at this underground base and searched such a long distance, they didn't find even a single alien species.
Let alone the alien species, I have never seen even a corpse of the alien species.
"Where have all those alien species gone...?"
Beru doesn't think that there are no other containment objects in the GTBU base except Shadow Demon. This is obviously unrealistic.
"Wait, where is that!?"
As they were walking, they suddenly saw a faint fire coming from ahead, and they seemed to be able to vaguely hear the shouts of humans and the roars of monsters.
"Found it! It's from the Hurricane Team!"
Even though Berudang recognized the identities of those people, he led the people and rushed over there.
"Hurry! Fire! Fire! They're coming!"
“I’m out of ammunition! Help! Ah!
"
"There are too many of them, let's retreat quickly! We can't go any further!"
"No! It's too late, we are surrounded... We have no way out..."
"..."
The sounds of the crowd and gunfire were blocked by the increasingly dense shadow barrier, and it was barely possible to hear them clearly until they got closer.
Beru's face was filled with shock and anger. What he saw in front of him was a team that had been broken into pieces. Dozens of twisted corpses were lying on the ground. There were less than ten people left alive.
This is the hurricane team, and the caretakers inside the gtbu base.
At a glance, Beru saw Luann, who was seriously injured and sitting against the wall. He was surrounded by three Hurricane Bureau agents who swore to protect him to the death.
"Save people."
Su Changqing gave instructions.
Beru took the lead, the war blade in his hand glowed with golden light, and he rushed directly into the area where the monsters were densest. With one sweep of the knife, he harvested a large number of shadow demon lives.
Aaron and Beina also followed suit. They held a square pendant around their waists. The pendant deformed rapidly in their hands, constantly changing shapes according to the owner's wishes and combat needs.
When facing monsters at a distance, the weapons in their hands can be transformed into firearms that can shoot spiritual beams. When facing enemies at close range, they will switch to cold weapon form.
Maybe it was still a spear when it was wielded and slashed one second, but the next moment when the weapon focused on the enemy, the spear had transformed into a battle axe. At the same time, when the monster attacked, the battle ax instantly turned into a shield. , blocking all their attacks.
This is the powerful equipment exclusive to the Star Alliance - the Eye of Evil. Not many people can buy this level of equipment, let alone the third-level form in the hands of Aaron and Beina, both in terms of power and transformation In terms of speed, it has already surpassed the low-level form by a lot.
Beru took a moment to look over there during the battle, secretly envious in his heart. He had always wanted this kind of weapon, but unfortunately he did not have enough contribution points to obtain it. Even if he bought it, as a spokesperson, he would have no reason to show it in front of him. Everyone in the hurricane bureau took it out and used it openly.
"It's Captain Hurricane! He's coming to save us!"
Someone saw Beru's appearance and shouted excitedly.
Lu En, who was seriously injured, originally thought he was dead today, but the sudden arrival of reinforcements gave him hope of survival.
"Beru! You're here!"
Luen had already sent a message to Beru before, and he was relieved when he finally received his support.
He then looked at the people who came with Beru. They were all wearing fearless uniforms. Of course Rune knew what that meant. Those were people from the Star Alliance, and look at the number of gold rims on the clothes of two of them. , indicating that their level is very high.
"Four gold edges...this is..."
This was not the first time that Lu En had seen a fearless suit with three gold edges, but he had seen it in a certain video recording. The person wearing this kind of clothes was a white man, and Lu En was even able to call his name through intelligence. And his identity - Bell, chief instructor of the Star Alliance.
The two people in front of them are all wearing fearless uniforms with three gold edges, which shows that their strength and status in the organization are probably not any worse than that one.
"Luann, how are you?"
Beru dispelled a shadow demon that wanted to attack by surprise, and came to Rune.
"It's okay, I can't die."
Luen barely supported himself and stood up. He looked past Beru at Aaron and the others, his eyes looking very complicated.
"The Covenant has discovered what's going on here. Their team and I are coming down to rescue you, and we'll also investigate what's going on here."
Beiluyan explained what happened briefly and comprehensively. Lu En did not doubt him after hearing this, and nodded to show that he understood.
The shadow demons were quickly repelled, but this was only temporary. Judging from the figures that were constantly gathering in the darkness around them, they might regroup and attack at any time.
"Director Matthews, I am the Shadow Deacon of the Covenant Moon Shadow Palace, White Wolf, here to investigate what happened at the GTBU base. This is a recovery elixir that can treat your wounds."
"Shadow Butler!"
Lu En's eyes suddenly froze after hearing this, and he understood what this title meant.
He had heard more or less about the high-end combat power in the Star Alliance. The most powerful among them were the seven Star Masters, followed by three Palace Masters, five Legion Commanders, nine Deacons, and those deep The unpredictable elder.
The young man talking to him in front of him was a deacon from the Star Alliance.
Now it seems that the woman on the side who is also wearing the three-layered gold-trimmed fearless uniform should not be bad in terms of strength and status.
In fact, Lu En's guess was correct. Aaron and Beina are now the shadow stewards of the Moon Shadow Palace, and their status is second only to the palace master.
Lu En swallowed the elixir and immediately felt an itching sensation at the wound. The torn muscles were repaired at a speed visible to the naked eye, which helped him recover in a short time.
"Thanks."
Lu En thanked him.
Aaron had no intention of wasting time with him, so he went straight to the topic and asked about the situation here.
Lu En smiled bitterly and said:
"Those politicians are really crazy. They actually built a shelter base here. Even we were hidden before. The people from the Hurricane Bureau suffered heavy losses trying to wipe their butts..."
As he spoke, he looked at a middle-aged man wearing a gtbu security team uniform and continued:
"He is Andrew, the security team captain of the GTBU base. Now that the person in charge of GTBU is dead, he should be the one with the highest authority in this base."
Facing Aaron's scrutinizing gaze, Andrew, the captain of the security team, felt a little breathless, and there was an extra layer of sweat on his forehead.
"I'm sorry, we didn't expect things to develop like this..."
"Okay, I'm not interested in apologizing. You can ask your superiors to go to the anti-demon alliance's parliament and talk to those members later. Now tell me the distribution of this base and why there are so many shadow demons here. ?Did you encounter a dimensional rift?"
A trace of doubt flashed across Andrew's face, and he said:
"No, Your Excellency. Just yesterday, our people didn't notice anything unusual here, until the crisis suddenly broke out tonight. It was like a premeditated raid. They accumulated power. I'm not sure how long it took. But we found no trace of the dimensional rift.”
He paused here, and then continued after thinking carefully:
"As for the Shadow Demon, according to the information I know, there is only one Shadow Demon in the entire GTBU base. At first, when it was captured, its strength was at the third level. Later, it evolved not long after it was in the base. When it reached the fourth level, the person in charge of the base proposed to destroy it, but after discussion at the meeting, they gave up the idea. They thought they could control it all..."
"We don't know what happened afterwards. The shadow demon seemed to have deliberately hidden its strength, but what we can be sure of is that no other shadow demons were captured in the entire base, and I really don't know how many there are now. Understand, maybe they can summon the same kind of things..."
Aaron passed the information he knew back to Su Changqing word for word, and Su Changqing couldn't help but look thoughtful after hearing it.
"Summoning the same kind? Impossible, Shadow Demon does not have such ability..."
"It is indeed possible to hide their strength. High-level alien species have very high intelligence. It is not impossible that they sometimes hide their strength in order to achieve certain goals..."
"But, what is its purpose..."
At this time, Ziwei on the side suddenly spoke.
"Hey, little liar, what are you thinking about? How are things going underground? Is there any news?"
Su Changqing immediately told the information he had learned. Ziwei nodded and said:
"The Shadow Demon does not have the ability to summon its kind, but it hides its strength and has been hiding underground. It is very likely that it has discovered that there are a large number of Dark Spirits on your planet. The Demons are not stupid, these guys are smart. It's here, maybe it sensed Naifaya's aura and hid on purpose."
Su Changqing's eyes narrowed slightly.
"In other words, when this guy was actually captured, he was not only at Level 3. He was deliberately captured by GTBU people, and then lurked here in hiding, just to avoid Naifaya?"
Ziwei spread his hands.
"I'm just saying it's possible."
Su Changqing frowned.
"Then why does it launch a sudden attack now and expose itself? Unless...it thinks it already has stronger strength than Naifaya!?"
The two looked at each other and saw a hint of fear in each other's eyes.
Stronger than Naifaya?
You must know that Naifaya is already a high-level control-level existence, and there is only one possibility for a demon to be stronger than the opponent while being restrained.
"It broke through to the extraordinary level!?"
"It's impossible, it's impossible. The extraordinary class is not a cabbage. How could it appear so casually? There have already been two extraordinary class invaders on your planet, right? How could a third one come? This doesn’t make sense…”
Ziwei looked unbelieving.
Su Changqing didn't have the intention to speculate so much anymore, because he suddenly thought of a possibility, a possibility that he had previously ignored.
"Judging from the size of GTBU, the number of alien species contained in it should be quite large. However, except for the shadow demon, the exploration team did not find any monster corpses. Even the hurricane team that went down earlier did not find any. This can only mean that one This situation..."
"These alien species were eaten..."
Su Changqing's eyes were complicated.
"The shadow demon devoured other alien species and helped it complete the last step of evolution until it now has the strength to defeat the superior control-level Divine Holy Angel..."
"No! The source must be found immediately! That guy hasn't appeared yet. It's possible that it's still in the process of evolving. Maybe it's too late for us to destroy it now..."
Su Changqing immediately asked the exploration team to speed up the exploration of the underground base.
At this moment, Beru and others also followed Andrew to a depth of 5,700 meters underground. This is where the shadow demon is housed, and now it is the final destination of their trip.
"The truth will be revealed soon. Is it a dimensional crack or something else? No matter what, I must stop you..."
Beru clenched his fists. This was one of the few opportunities for him to make great contributions to the organization. He must seize it.
When the thick alloy door was opened at the last moment, the scene before everyone's eyes made them stunned.
"What is this……?"
Andrew swallowed. The scene that he originally thought should be the F-52 containment area has indeed turned into a deep black hole without any light, as if all the light has been swallowed up by it, until Aaron He and Beina threw several Holy Light spells in succession, and everyone could barely see clearly what was inside.
It was a huge heart covered in black shadow, with countless vines extending from it, spreading throughout every corner of the hall.
Those vines were like black blood vessels, beating with the faint ups and downs of the heart.
Around the hall, you can vaguely see some twisted corpses, which do not seem to be human corpses.
Seeing this scene, the familiar heart and the vines like blood vessels, although they were all covered by black shadows, Aaron recognized its identity at the first sight.
His eyes widened immediately, and his eyes suddenly shrank, with a look of shock and anger on his face.
I saw Aaron grabbing the collar of Andrew next to him and yelling at him:
"Asshole! Did you fucking contain Teito too!?"
