"Sect Master Lin, can I talk to you about sothing?"
Lin Fan was completely caught off guard when he heard this.
He looked at the captain of the UFO who had suddenly said this with one brow raised before eventually nodding in agreent. But he also didn't talk to him here and stood up to lead him sowhere else.
Since he wanted to talk, it was naturally about sothing private.
At the sa ti, he sent so to bring Yue Lan and Ming Xin over.
He was certain that they would want to hear this.
A few minutes later, all of them were sitting inside of one of the hidden rooms in the Love Sect.
The captain of the UFO nad Kennedy had a hesitant look on his face after they arrived, but eventually he said, "There was a strange signal that was picked up on our last delivery."
"Strange signal?" Lin Fan repeated in a confused voice.
Kennedy gave a simple nod before saying, "It's a signal that we've never encountered before, but it also seems like a signal that we're familiar with. It seems to be so kind of a mixed signal that was hard to decipher."
"Familiar? Then you're saying…" Lin Fan let his voice trail off, but what he was implying was clear.
Kennedy seed like he was hesitating a bit before he said with a slow shake of his head, "It's similar, but it shouldn't be related. After all, we're still in contact with headquarters and there hasn't been any information about this place. In fact, after we reported that we made contact with the Love Sect, it seed that they left this entire Mu Empire to us."
There was a strange look that appeared on Kennedy's face when he said this.
Lin Fan had felt the sa when he heard this earlier.
It seed that all three continents seed to know about their Mu Empire and the Love Sect and paid special attention to them. Which was why when they reported that they had made contact with the Mu Empire and Love Sect, it seed that they did what they could to let them maintain this contact.
It really was strange how much importance they were putting on the Mu Empire and the Love Sect.
It really seed like there was sothing more that they knew about the Mu Empire and the Love Sect that they just weren't showing.
Otherwise, how could they act this way?
But putting this aside, Lin Fan focused back on the matter at hand.
The matter of the strange signal that was unfamiliar and familiar at the sa ti.
After a bit of thought, Lin Fan said, "So you're saying that there's a chance that it's related? Then can you track down the strange signal?"
Kennedy was pulled out of his thoughts, but he once again revealed a look of thought on his face before slowly saying, "I can't guarantee it, but I can at least say that there's a chance. As long as we triangulate the signal, then it's possible that we'll find where it's coming from."
After a pause he added, "Even if we do so, we can't guarantee that we'll be able to find anything good. It might just be sothing random that is giving off this signal, we can't be certain just what we will find."
Lin Fan gave a casual nod in response before saying, "It doesn't matter if there's anything there or not. Since you've found this strange signal, the least that we can do is investigate what it is. To leave it would be dangerous after all."
Kennedy slowly nodded in agreent again after hearing this.
But before he could go and prepare for the journey, Yue Lan suddenly asked, "What if it's a trap?"
Lin Fan turned to look at her before giving a slow nod of acknowledgent. Only it didn't seem like he was planning on backing down from this.
That was because this was sothing that he had already considered before this.
He already knew that there was the chance that this was a trap, but since it was sothing related to the other continent and it was inside the border of the Mu Empire, he wanted to check it out.
Seeing the way that he looked at her, Yue Lan just said with a sigh, "If you're going to charge in, then the least you can do is bring so backup. It isn't as if you need to do everything yourself. I know how you feel, but there are others that are here to help you."
Lin Fan slowly nodded in agreent before saying, "Then how about another training trip for the Love Sect?"
Yue Lan slowly revealed a faint smile when she heard this as the traces of worry disappeared from her eyes.
She had been worried that he would try to take care of this matter alone.
She was worried that he might hurt himself trying to take this all on himself.
Lin Fan knew that he had this bad habit as well, which was why he compromised right away.
He wanted to change for them, he didn't want them to be worried.
Only it was quite a bit of work preparing sothing like a training trip.
…
Three days later, they arrived at the location where the strange signal was found.
This was a place that was on the edge of the Mu Empire, but was still within the borders of the Mu Empire. This was a place that didn't actually have anything special, so it was strange to hold a training session here.
But that was why they spread the rumours that there was a new vein of spirit stones in the area.
Just this alone was more than enough to justify the Love Sect coming to this place.
It also drew in the attention of other sects, but they weren't here to compete.
Rather, even if they wanted to compete…would they be able to do anything against the Love Sect?
The only thing that they could do was find the spirit stone vein before the Love Sect did and present it to them. If they gave this spirit stone vein to the Love Sect, then there was no doubt that they would be able to leave a good impression on them.
It was just too bad that there was never a spirit stone vein in the first place.
The place that the rest of the sects gathered wasn't even the place where the strange signal ca from. That place was just being used as a cover for Lin Fan and the Love Sect as they ca to investigate the strange signal in this place.
Or rather, the one that was investigating the strange signal was Kennedy and the rest of the crew of the UFO.
With everyone distracted, they easily made their way over here and searched the area. At the sa ti, they were able to easily pick up the sa strange signal again when they arrived in the area.
It was as if whatever was creating the signal was even broadcasting that signal out there for them.
So with that signal captured, they were able to pinpoint the location quite easily.
"Are you sure that this is the place?" Lin Fan asked Kennedy as he looked down at the spot that they had pinpointed the signal to be coming from.
The reason why he was asking this was because this was a completely empty field.
There wasn't even vegetation that was growing here, it was as if this place was completely abandoned…
Kennedy looked at the equipnt one more ti before slowly nodding to show that this was indeed the place.
Lin Fan raised a brow to look at the equipnt as well before he left the UFO and floated down to the ground. As he did, he released his spiritual sense beneath him to see if he could find anything down there.
It was just that the mont that his spiritual sense reached the ground…
No, even before his spiritual sense reached the ground, there was this strange reaction that ca from down below. This strange reaction seed like it was so kind of strange energy that was coming from the ground.
And when he felt this, Lin Fan felt that he had felt sothing similar before…
Radiation, this felt like radiation energy.
It was like the thing that he had felt in Feng Yu's inheritance realm, the ones that the machines radiated.
So that ant that there was indeed sothing that was down here.
After realizing this, he couldn't help feeling like he was a fool since there was sothing else that he didn't realize.
There was a reason why this place was barren to begin with.
The rest of the area was covered in lush greenery, which showed that there was nothing wrong with the soil in the surrounding area. It was only this one area that seed to be completely barren.
Radiation energy from machines was enough to kill off vegetation like this.
It was clear that whatever was down there was releasing radioactive energy which was killing off the plants that grew above.
However, looking more closely, Lin Fan could see that the ring of radiation wasn't that big. It seed like it was only a dium sized circle that had ford in this place.
It seed that it was just concentrated in this one area.
He couldn't understand why this was the case, but Lin Fan continued to let his spiritual sense dig into the ground.
He wanted to see just what was in this place that was causing this.
