Chapter 214 - Chapter 214 8.30

I spotted a few people leisurely eating sunflower seeds and playing games.

Suddenly, a golden light shot out from the lake, so bright that it hurt their eyes, forcing them to close their eyes and turn their heads to avoid it.

Xunmi dropped the tablet in her hand to the ground. Just as she was touched by the golden light, she felt someone watching her.

Even though I didn't see that person or notice those eyes, they kept appearing in my mind on their own.

Those were dazzling eyes, with golden pupils filled with vast starlight.

It makes people willingly get drunk on it and give everything for it.

But she felt that those eyes were so familiar, as if she had seen them before.

The other person stared at her with those eyes for a very long time, so long that she felt the familiarity came out of nowhere.

When the golden light faded, the pair of eyes that had been searching for also disappeared.

Then whirlpools began to appear on the lake surface, growing larger and larger, and strong winds also began to blow around.

Find a way to quickly set up a water wave wall to block the wind and stabilize the group.

The lake water began to recede rapidly, and for a time it was almost dried up.

About ten minutes later, everything around returned to silence.

The lake is still the same lake, and the water is still so clear and clean that it can reflect people's faces.

"What just happened?" Ling Chen frowned. The boss had been gone for six days.

The first few days were quite peaceful; they ate and drank to their hearts' content and seemed to enjoy themselves.

But today there was such a big commotion, and then nothing happened. I'm a little worried and confused.

Xunmi tapped his chin with his finger, looked at the lake, and fell into deep thought.

Actually, she was communicating with the system, saying, "Baby, are you hiding something from me?"

Was this time travel just a coincidence, or was it destined, as the baby said?

The baby wriggled its round body and nuzzled Xunmi's cheek affectionately.

'My lord, I really don't know much, and there's more that I can't say.'

"You don't have enough permissions. Once you reach level 70, you can unlock some data in stages."

This is something it just got from the main system, and to be honest, it's still completely baffled.

"Someone's coming." Song Ziqian stood up, his gun already cocked.

The commotion just now would attract those who had entered earlier, which was within their expectations.

The problem is that we still don't know if these people who came here are rational or if they are easy to deal with.

Xunmi sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, and bent down to pick up the tablet from the floor.

Ignoring the rustling sounds, he said, "If we can't reach an agreement, we'll just tie them all up and throw them out."

Anyway, she won't let anyone disturb her beloved husband. Anyone who dares to face the danger can come and try.

Soon, the person who had organized and led the team appeared: the major.

The people following him were a mixed group, including soldiers and mission teams.

Seeing the three of them, he was clearly stunned, as if he hadn't expected to run into them.

Didn't they leave before? How come they're here?

At this moment, the major was devastated; how could he possibly complete his mission under such circumstances?

To be honest, he really didn't have the guts to fight these people head-on.

It seems like you have a lot of people at your disposal, but your strength is no match for theirs. What else can you do but negotiate amicably?

If we can get even a little bit so that he can have an explanation when he goes back, that would be good.

"Colonel Song, Miss Ming, Mr. Ling, we meet again."

"Where did Captain Ye go? I haven't seen him."

The major was just being polite, thinking that one shouldn't hit someone who's smiling.

But what was with this sudden tense atmosphere? Why did he feel that the people opposite him were looking at him with such wariness and hostility?

Seeking half-closed peach blossom eyes that seemed to hold the soft glow of moonlight, dark and beautiful.

Her eyes curved into a captivating arc, exuding a gentle and alluring charm.

Her eyelashes were long and thick, trembling slightly, unexpectedly captivating and charming.

Yet it inexplicably gives off a sense of oppression and danger, making one want to retreat.

That seductive elegance was portrayed as a bewitching malice, like a vengeful ghost with outstretched claws, ready to pounce on anyone who stumbles upon it.

"You want to see my boss?" Ling Chen asked with a dark face, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

The major was completely dumbfounded; what had he done?

Someone explain this to him; he's really confused.

"Um, I was just asking, just asking, I didn't mean anything by it, really."

Whatever it is, he'll just bet on it as soon as possible.

Ling Chen nodded in satisfaction, then asked, "What are you doing here?"

"Well, the scene just now was so surprising that I came here to take a look."

"What's going on with you three?" The major was incredibly frustrated; heaven knows he really wanted to give up.

Miss Ming's eyes were truly terrifying; he was timid and couldn't withstand being intimidated!

"Since everything is alright, you can leave now. As for us... we think this is a great place to enjoy the scenery."

"What, can't we do it here? Or do you have some kind of problem?"

Ling Chen had no idea what tact was. His boss was still in a state of confusion, so who had the time to waste on them?

Xunmi glanced at everyone briefly before turning her attention back to her tablet.

The baby said there was no danger inside, and the golden light was just due to an energy surge.

I suppose my husband received that energy and is currently processing it.

The major hesitated, wanting to speak several times but then finally steeled himself and decided to go for it.

"Actually, we came here because we received news that there is a treasure here."

"It can sustain the growth of all things in this place and prevent them from being infected."

"The higher-ups ordered us to take the treasure back to the lab for research, hoping to develop an antidote for the zombie virus."

At this point, if we don't give it our all, there's really no hope left.

Looking up, I see.

No wonder those old men made such a big fuss; unfortunately, they're going to be disappointed.

However, she somewhat believed that she wouldn't get infected.

This place is real, but you can't see inside from the outside, while you can see outside from inside.

It can only be said that the treasure that originally existed here automatically isolated a relatively hidden and safe place.

As for the purpose, it is currently unknown.

"What you're looking for isn't here." Xunmi's clear voice carried an unyielding authority.

The major felt a chill in his heart, realizing that this trip was probably in vain. He sighed, thinking that it was not worth it to have lost so many superhumans.

Just because he can recognize the facts doesn't mean others can judge who to mess with and who to tolerate.

"What makes you so sure? Maybe you've already taken it all."

"Yes, we've come all this way to resolve this apocalypse. Your constant excuses suggest you don't want the apocalypse to end sooner. What are you up to?"
