Shortly after Crab Erha left, a monster came to the location of the explosion.
The previous wave of fire was so loud that it not only scared Lucy, but also attracted the attention of many monsters.
They subconsciously thought that someone had encountered the target, and rushed over, only to find that the battle was already over.
That seemingly intimidating wave of fire was just the last cry of a loser.
Several monsters were wandering around the battlefield, trying to find any clues.
It's just that the unique nature of the mist world has erased many traces. This battle was fought with great momentum, especially the last round of self-destructive flame attacks, which burned everything clean.
Except for a vaguely identifiable corpse and the fire element still remaining in the air, basically nothing else was left.
The monsters turned around and found nothing, so they had to disperse one after another.
Only one weird monster, which looked like a sandbag, was left to finish.
It moved its heavy body and came to the corpse. The middle part of the body suddenly split open, revealing an organ that seemed to be a mouth.
The jagged mouth slowly opened, releasing the tongue curled up inside.
It was like a red carpet rolled from its mouth to the outside world. The long tongue, so bright red that it seemed to be dripping blood, slowly unfolded, and then rolled it flexibly to bring the corpse into its mouth.
The monster smashed its mouth with satisfaction, then twisted its body and disappeared into the mist.
Along with the death of the fire-attributed monster, a marked breath of life dissipated in the mist world. The snake-elephant monster that stayed in place, closing its eyes to rest, seemed to have sensed something. It opened its eyes and raised its head.
The thick body stretched out again, and the stone between the two eyes of the monster shone slightly, exuding a dangerous aura.
Weird energy fluctuations spread around, and silvery white streams of light lit up on the snake scales, followed by a gloomy killing intent.
Just when the power was about to explode, the stone on its head suddenly began to flicker regularly.
This strange flicker seemed to convey some kind of message to it. The monster suddenly stopped moving and became quiet. After a while, the snake's head lowered again and soon disappeared in the surging mist.
…
The situation in the mist world is tense and on the verge of breaking out. Although the outside world does not know the specific situation, they can roughly guess that they are in urgent need of rescue.
After receiving the news, the Knights immediately sent people to the breeding house to confirm the situation with Dean.
"Why is it in heaven?"
"Are you sure there's nothing wrong with these coordinates?"
After repeatedly confirming that the source of the aura that Dean sensed was in the sky, the knight stepped on the devil's floating fish in disbelief, turned on the detection equipment, and scanned the sky in Area 13.
After a moment, he stepped back to the ground on his familiar, and handed the energy map to Dean with a strange expression.
"The energy residue was indeed detected, just near the coordinate position, but the shape... is very strange."
The group of people returned to the room with the drawings. The conference hall of the breeding house was so crowded for the first time since its birth.
Dean sat in the center, watching the knights arguing around the testing equipment. His brows furrowed more and more as he listened, and finally he released his mental power and slapped it on the table.
The loud noise stopped everyone's commotion, and they all turned their heads to look at Dean, who had obviously run out of patience.
"I'm not here to ask you to verify whether my judgment is correct, but to ask if you have any relevant information or any reliable method to send me in."
Dean was so quarreled by these people that he couldn't say anything useful. If he didn't stop him, the cucumbers and vegetables would be cold.
He looked at the group of people in front of him, waiting for their answer.
The knights fell silent.
This is what they were discussing before.
There are various signs that the space Lucy and the others are in is very closed.
The characteristic of this kind of space is that it is easy to go from the inside to the outside, but difficult to go from the outside to the inside.
It's not that the Knights don't have the means to break through space, but no one can guarantee whether it will be effective or not.
Just like before today, they did not expect that the other party would be bold enough to put the space under their noses.
The knights had heavy expressions and could not hide their worries.
A large number of security measures have been deployed in District 13 to monitor illegal intrusions. Many of them are exclusive equipment customized for them by the head of the regiment at the request of Her Royal Highness. Looking at the entire empire, they are considered to be top-notch.
However, in this incident, no one responded to the existence of the "different space".
Obviously, the current situation has gone beyond what they can handle. This passive situation is really difficult for people to feel relieved.
After waiting for a long time, no one answered. Dean also realized that none of these people could count on him, so he said decisively.
"If you have no other way, then I can only choose to attack by force."
Everyone looked at each other, wondering what kind of eye contact they had. After the scene went cold for a few seconds, the knight in charge of the protection of Area 13 took two steps forward and spoke.
"President Dean, judging from the current situation, we suspect that it is not a 'different space' in conventional understanding. The space breakthrough methods currently available in District 13... I am afraid it will be difficult to be effective against it."
"We have reported it to the team leader, who will contact professionals who are skilled in space research, but we have not yet received a response from the other party..."
Dean used his toes to figure out who Lensak was contacting. He waved his hand and said bluntly.
"If they break the space, they will definitely attract the enemy's attention. When you call people over, will you prepare to rescue people or collect corpses?"
The knights were speechless. Just when the room fell into silence again, a light word came from nowhere.
"A space that has been broken must have loopholes. Find the weak point and just sneak in. Isn't that the end?"
Someone subconsciously retorted: "How can it be so simple? It's a nearly completely enclosed secret space with unknown origins and unknown ways of existence. Who can complete this kind of infiltration work?"
"I."
The curtains blown by the wind slowly fell down, and Alpha appeared in everyone's sight, standing with his arms crossed.
he repeated, standing in front of the open window.
"I can."
Happy Dragon Boat Festival (ω`)!
