Before the words were even finished, a bright white light suddenly flared around her, and she vanished into the darkness of the narrow crevice from which they had come, without a trace.
In the vast cave, only Fang Qingyu, Jiang Wei, and Wei Banmeng remained, accompanied by a deathly silence.
"Let's begin."
Fang Qingyu's voice broke the stillness.
He and Wei Banmeng swiftly opened their packs, taking out a metal base more complex and refined than the one used by the previous team, and several energy pillars glowing with a ghostly blue light.
Without a word, the two cooperated seamlessly.
Fang Qingyu handled the base's positioning and calibration, while Wei Banmeng quickly connected the energy circuits. Jiang Wei, like a vigilant little beast, hugged her knees and sat on a large rock, her clear eyes scanning the entrances of several deep crevices around them without blinking. An orange-red force field flowed faintly around her, like a flickering candle in the dark.
