Chapter 775: Chapter 18 Big Snake_2
Not far away, a sentinel with a tense expression ran over.
Zou Hai furrowed his brows.
An incident?
“On the Book of Life and Death… the mbers of the Labyrinth mission have lost their Spiritual Sense again!”
This news made Zou Hai’s heart skip a beat.
He rushed to the command center, where the atmosphere in the command room was tense. Lord Lin Lin stood solemnly at the central position, and on the other side, Aluer with silver hair down to her waist had a face as cold as ice.
The expression of this Angel Envoy was very hard to read, her beautiful eyes staring fixatedly at the large screen.
The data transmitted from the “Book of Life and Death” appeared on the screen, showing that all twelve Transcendents’ profiles displayed “Killed in Action”… the words “killed in action” didn’t necessarily an physical death.
But… the fading of the lingering essence on the Book of Life and Death ant that they had at least fallen into a state of “spiritual death”!
“Again… it has happened…”
Aluer’s voice was sowhat hoarse.
The previous Labyrinth mission had ended the sa way.
No one knew.
What exactly had the team outside the Fortress gone through?
Her gaze did not shift in the slightest, alas, the ssages on the “Book of Life and Death” showed no fluctuations, very stable… not looking like a miracle could happen.
“It is good news.”
Lin Lin said calmly, “This phenonon ans that Gu Shen has reached the sa location as the previous exploration team.”
He was the calst person in the command room.
Unequivocally so.
“I don’t think the anomaly from the Book of Life and Death is relevant. Since Hong Zhong was able to return, there must be a way to co back.” Lin Lin spoke slowly, “This Labyrinth mission is ant to find the true cause of the anomaly… I think Gu Shen and his team have already touched upon the truth. As a fortress within the giant wall, we cannot offer any help at this mont. The only thing we can do is pray for their safe return.”
This statent was made very calmly.
Lin Lin, exercising his authority, wiped all the “Killed in Action” profiles…
At this mont, such negative information would only demoralize the command team.
Lin Lin’s tone was very steady as he dismissed the authority of the “Book of Life and Death,” but upon careful calculation… the tiline of the anomalies indeed matched closely between the two teams.
This was not unfounded speculation.
Perhaps… there really was so special pattern causing such anomalies?
“Compared to that, there is another important matter we need to prepare for…”
The information on the screen changed again.
Dozens, hundreds of caras, projected images at the sa ti…
“Two hours ago, the Heavenly Eye on the ‘Umbrella Defense Line’ sensed a strong ‘air pressure.'” Lin Lin spoke softly, “The air pressure ca from the due north.”
As he spoke.
Zou Hai’s expression imdiately tensed.
Having been stationed at Gu Castle Fortress for so many years, he was all too aware of the true implications of the words “air pressure”!
The deploynt of the “Heavenly Eye” in North Continent was extrely challenging. Outside the giant wall was a world of collapsed order, and the Umbrella Defense Line, acting as a buffer zone, was the last link to the Spirit Network… similar to the tentacles of the human world.
Even though these tentacles were short.
But… having them was better than not having any at all!
After deploying the “Heavenly Eye,” the Umbrella Defense Line could feel the warning of the essence tides’ impact in advance… These essence tides would trigger many anomalies beforehand.
Earthquakes, air pressure, surging tides… and more.
And this ti.
The wind direction map sent back by the Umbrella Defense Line had several terrifying vortices…
“The preliminary estimate of the air pressure scale is Grade A. The Umbrella Defense Line will face the most severe impact in twenty years… Deep Sea has estimated that after the source energy of the Umbrella Defense Line is exhausted, it can block 95% of the essence tides; the remaining 5% of the force will penetrate the defense line, impacting the giant wall. If we do not respond, this 5% of the force could likely break through the giant wall.”
Lin Lin slowly turned around, looking at everyone in the command room, slowly stating, “Gentlen, a storm is brewing in Gu Castle…”
…
…
The wind howled!
The blizzard gradually waned!
The cold and shattered world, now a reflection of the Old World, was left behind. The twelve-person team stood at the exit of Snow Mountain Canyon… no one could have imagined that the final route of Labyrinth 38 would be so easy to navigate.
Just a few dozen minutes.
The view before them suddenly opened up.
Gao Tian floated with flowing clouds, large patches of light fell on the ground, on them…
A wave of warmth.
Far away was the “Dreamland” that all travelers longed for.
The end of the journey.
Oasis.
Yuan Yuan was montarily captivated. He felt his blood boiling, a strong sense of “belonging” surged in his heart, everything Hong Zhong had ntioned on his sickbed was true… the oasis was just beyond the Labyrinth, right before his eyes!
Everyone in the team was imrsed in the joy of glimpsing the oasis, displaying silly smiles.
Except one person, whose expression was different.
Gu Shen furrowed his brow, he crouched down… gazing at the thick layer of snow beneath his feet. Amid the silver white snow, there were so broken wood chips scattered around, just like the ones Hong Zhong had brought back from the Labyrinth mission.
Gu Shen extended two fingers, picking up a piece of wood chip.
This ti.
He sensed a familiar spiritual fluctuation…
It was his teacher’s “sacred wood” aura.
