At this moment, Mogensha and Reef walked over. Brother Black was undoubtedly excited to upgrade himself with the dark-gold grade, \'Versace Boa Pants\', he obtained earlier, while Reef was keen to learn the ability, \'Claw Weapon Fluency\'. That ability scroll was rather uncommon and he definitely had to make several rounds around the marketplace.
Thus, with their hearts set on speeding home, they straightforwardly returned to the realm.
Following that, Sheyan glanced at Zi and asked
"Why aren\'t you leaving yet?"
Her eyes were slightly puffy, which exhibited a lovely natural charm of a capable and valiant female warrior. Zi sighed and answered.
"I just accepted a continuation mission."
Sheyan frowned and asked.
"Why didn\'t you say earlier, then Reef and AK wouldn\'t have left."
Zi waved her hand and replied.
"Just a small mission which doesn\'t need them. This mission won\'t prolong my stay in this world as well. It\'s called \'Doctor Hammond\'s will\'. Before dying, he wish that someone will bury him, his beloved test tubes, and his daughter\'s doll by the tiny lake outside."
After hearing about that mission, the pressure in Sheyan\'s heart was lifted. The only concern for that mission, would possibly arise due to the power supply of this underground base, thereby releasing the other cultivation tank beasts. Still, they could only survive for a measly few minutes.
Therefore, Zi only needed to delay a little before going back to basement 4 after all experiment beasts perished.
At present, a single man and woman interacting in a sealed office without any external pressure. A weird subtle feeling started to form, like a vague and unintentional connection rising involuntarily between two parties facing each other in Starbucks.
"Nearly there." Sheyan was still contemplating over many things in his heart; matters such as his break through of the 50 points boundary, drawing Demondream\'s equipment or Zi\'s future arrangement…
More importantly, he still felt as if he had overlooked something, but since this world was ending, everything became rather insignificant. Hence, he was feeling rather laid back while Zi felt more sentimental.
After his voice shattered the awkwardness of the atmosphere, Zi quietly proceeded to the basement 4 lab. She then collected Hammond\'s corpse as the two strolled out of this massive base, and finally buried him by the lake.
Women were normally more emotional. As she faced Doctor Hammond\'s grave, she remembered his talents, ambitions and twisted fate. Maybe she could connect her own life to this and couldn\'t help but sigh softly.
Instead, Sheyan silently admired the scenery and soon received the notification from his nightmare imprint, reminding him to return to the realm. Thus, the alertness in his heart loosened.
However, as he spectated the main road winding past the green trees, he suddenly realized the source of his uneasiness. He immediately inquired of Zi.
"Zi, do you still recall how we entered this strictly guarded base previously?"
Zi was slightly startled. She didn\'t know Sheyan abruptly raised this topic but still answered.
"Naturally, the employees were dispatched in a truck to receive a batch of goods at the \'port\'. Thus, they opened the gates themselves, otherwise, those enormous steel doors would really be an issue."
Sheyan sullenly continued.
"In this Jurassic Park island, where dangers lurk in every corner, efficiency and safety is definitely the utmost priority. Considering the slow precautions put into loading and transportation, even with the time needed to disguise the truck, it would at most take an hour plus. It has been three hours since we turned this base upside down, yet that truck hasn\'t returned yet!"
Zi hesitated briefly and suggested.
"Could it be that truck did return but fled after realizing something was amiss?…"
Speaking till there, she immediately overthrew her conclusion. The concrete route constructed for Jurassic Park that year merely stretched till the side of the lake. Following that, there was hundreds of metres of a wet stony path before reaching the base. To lay the foundations for the base, the doctor had constructed cemented grounds here as well. As such, if the truck had returned and left again, there would inevitably be clear track marks along the wet stony path.
Still locked speechlessly in thought, Zi\'s eyes suddenly flickered as she pointed to a distant area.
"Isn\'t that the truck over there? Seems like it has broken down there."
Sheyan was a little baffled by that. If the truck had broken down, wouldn\'t someone be fixing it? Or if they couldn\'t, since the base was relatively near, wouldn\'t they request help from the base.
In contrast, it remained immobile. A dinosaur raid wasn\'t reasonable as well. After all, Hammonds had specially created drugs that could masquerade the truck from dinosaurs.
Contemplating over that, Sheyan naturally proceeded to investigate this mystery. After all, he was normally an individual of deliberate thoughts and besides, they were about to return to the realm soon. Zi casually followed him over.
Upon approaching, Sheyan noticed the the exterior of the truck was unexpectedly wrecked!
It was as though the truck had experienced an intense collision before falling over a cliff. Although truck\'s frame was tough and remained relatively intact, seeing the wrecked extent of the truck, the passengers of this truck would most likely have perished.
Sheyan hopped up the truck\'s hood and carefully examined. He discovered the back of the truck was actually empty. However, the key was still inserted it and semi-dried blood had been splashed everywhere.
Sheyan frowned.
"You discovered anything?"
Zi bluntly replied.
"Missing corpses! There aren\'t traces of dinosaur attack nearby but the corpses are missing."
Sheyan then closely inspected the exterior of the truck and sullenly spoke.
"The truck door is distorted and cannot be opened normally but look at this…"
When Zi observed where he was pointed, her heart instantly shivered.
Amidst the bloodstains of the interior door handle, there were even bite marks and chipped teeth! If the truck experienced a violent collision, the individuals inside would have suffered a concussion or dizziness, and their bodies would turn weak. How crazy must someone be to attempt biting a car handle to escape the truck???
If the truck was hanging by a cliff then fine, but clearly, it was halted by the roadside. Why did the passenger attempt to escape in such a frantic way?
Many outrageous and unimaginable thoughts flashed through Sheyan\'s mind and linked up. He couldn\'t help but inhale deeply, because, he could guess the reason behind all these madness!!!
As he was about to speak, Zi abruptly gazed over. Her eyes brimmed with melancholy, despair, anguish and a sliver of unwillingness.
"Do you still remember, a question I asked before?"
The puzzled Sheyan replied.
"What question?"
Zi glanced at him and explained with a sorrowful tone.
"I said, although you are pretty formidable now, you still can\'t stand up directly to Zeus and Skull……"
Sheyan chuckled in response.
"Yes, I remember clearly and my answer is, even right now, I still dare to confront Zeus and Skull! Perhaps I can\'t defeat them, but they can\'t deal with me either! …ask that now, and my answer remains the same. Why?"
She shook her head.
She had complicated gaze of guilt and resentment.
She slowly answered.
"Because. Right now, you have to stand against them. I shouldn\'t have take the continuation mission, in the end……I\'ve implicated you."
HIs pupils instantly contracted because at this moment, he sensed an immeasurably powerful pressure surging in from both east and west. Sheyan quickly exclaimed.
"We return at once!"
Zi shook her head bitterly. When Sheyan attempted to contact the realm with his nightmare imprint, he received a merciless notification.
[ Unknown error… ]
[ Verifying… ]
[ Estimated time of repair: 18 minutes 31 seconds ]
"Unknown error???!" Sheyan was astounded. This had nothing to do with returning to the realm, but this \'unknown error\' reminded him of the situation when his own innate ability conflicted with other abilities.
At this moment, a male with eagle eyes strutted out slowly from the eastern fern forest. Beside him, was a petite and ravishing woman whose eyes brimmed with hate. Another herculean man sauntered out from the rocky west side, a man that emanated an aura of blood and steel!
Zeus, Skull!
Though Glory Party and Skull Party separated clearly like Jiang and Wei, approaching in from the east and west, one could notice a scheming unison involved!
Sheyan and Zi\'s escape route was cut off. Evidently, they had reached a mutual understanding, blocking them off from even running into the wilderness of legend tier dinosaurs.
Such is fate, enshrouded in haze.
Just a second ago, Sheyan was absolutely secured. A second later, an ambush from two large parties. A pincer from two MTs\' parties!
And beside Sheyan, was only a single Zi……
