Destiny Mission of game ‘Star Ring’

Chapter 1742 - 1392: Surprise (Part 2)

The young NCO explained methodically.

"Thank you."

After listening, Su Mo breathed a sigh of relief and nodded slightly in response.

"Boss, you’re here."

At this moment, Sun Duoxiang came running over hurriedly, calling out breathlessly.

"What’s up?"

Su Mo turned his head to glance at Sun Duoxiang.

"Sister Xue is looking for you."

Sun Duoxiang quickly explained.

"Alright, let’s go."

Su Mo then left with Sun Duoxiang.

---------------------------------------------------

Southeast of the Observer Base, amidst the endless crimson mountain range.

Seven figures clad in IV generation mechanical armor were arduously exploring this area, as violent sandstorms raged.

The seven figures could only push through the strong winds to advance and explore.

Around them, sixteen mechas stood guard. Three of the mechas were V generation pure mechanical mecha·Divine Guard, three were fake V generation pure mechanical mecha·Shadow, and the remaining ten were IV generation pure mechanical mecha·Night Guard.

This escort formation can be considered luxurious.

At this moment, a Divine Guard Mecha descended in front of the leading figure and spoke in a deep voice.

"Dr. Lan Xi, the weather is getting worse. How about getting into the mecha?"

"No need, Hai Mo. We’re at a critical juncture in the search already. We must do it ourselves and can’t overlook any clues."

Lan Xi shook his head stubbornly and said.

"Alright."

Hai Mo remained silent for a few seconds and didn’t say anything more.

At this moment, two other Divine Guard Mechas also flew over, and the leading mecha asked steadily.

"How about it, Dr. Lan Xi? Do you want to pause the exploration?"

The speaker was none other than Wolf, the captain of the five-man Fallen One team, and the pilot of the other Divine Guard Mecha was the group’s loli, Luo Qi.

The escort work for this exploration team was led by Hai Mo, with Wolf and Luo Qi assisting.

"Dr. Lan Xi wants to continue exploring."

Hai Mo said solemnly.

"The problem is, look at the sky in the distance, with lightning and thunder, we might face a storm coming this way."

Luo Qi said with a furrowed brow.

"We’ll deal with it when the storm comes. With us here, it should be fine."

Hai Mo replied solemnly.

"Alright."

The Wolf team said no more, even though Dr. Lan Xi was not strong like a bird, he was still greatly admired.

Missions with such dangerous exploration normally delegate to subordinates. Few would do it personally.

Let alone be so determined.

Time slowly passed.

The raging wind grew increasingly fierce, and the climate worsened.

Just when Hai Mo planned to persuade Lan Xi to stop once more.

Suddenly Lan Xi stopped.

The others were slightly stunned, looking at Lan Xi with confusion.

In the exploration team, Dr. Fendi asked, "Dr. Lan Xi, what’s wrong?"

Lan Xi didn’t answer Fendi but dashed towards the edge of the crimson mountain without hesitation.

Seeing this, Hai Mo immediately said, "Follow up!"

At this time, Lan Xi rushed to a messy pile of rubble and lay down directly.

In the rubble pile, a peculiar plant was growing, with strange blue flowers blooming on its branches, emitting a faint glow.

Hai Mo and the others who arrived were also shocked to see this.

Plants actually growing in such a harsh environment.

Fendi and the others saw this and excitedly asked Lan Xi.

"Lan Xi, is this what we’re looking for? The rumored Magic Moon Flower that can counteract pollution?"

"Not sure yet, but we can try. Hai Mo, could you please set up a temporary lab for us?"

Lan Xi calmed his excitement and said.

"No problem."

Hai Mo immediately waved to his subordinates behind him.

Then Night Guard Mechas detached portable mechanical boxes from their backs, retrieving disassembled mechanical equipment from within and began assembling them on-site.

Soon a temporary laboratory was set up.

Lan Xi carefully cleared the rubble, pulling out the peculiar plant intact.

She then entered the temporary laboratory with the doctors.

Lan Xi brought out some portable experimental equipment and started to research the flower.

Half an hour later.

Fendi looked at the preliminary test results and said, amazed, "I’ve never seen such a life structure, and it contains a pure, special energy."

"That means we might have really found it. It might indeed counteract negative energy pollution. Given everything known currently is ineffective, only the unknown holds hope."

Lan Xi said joyfully.

"True, but we can’t continue research now to confirm its effects and side effects. Our equipment is very limited; should we take it back to base first?"

"No, nothing is more effective than personal experimentation."

Lan Xi said calmly.

"You’re insane. You’re going to experiment on yourself? What if it turns out to be poisonous?"

Fendi was also stunned.

"I trust it."

Lan Xi calmly said, looking at the blue flower in front of her.

She then cut a portion of the petals and placed them in an extraction device.

Accompanied by a whirring sound.

The petals were crushed.

Lan Xi skillfully conducted a preliminary extraction, quickly making it into a syringe.

Without hesitation, she released the mechanical armor covering her left arm, ready to inject herself with the syringe.

Fendi reached out and grabbed Lan Xi’s hand, saying, "Let me do it? If something happens to you, it will be problematic."

"No need."

Lan Xi shook her head, then resolutely injected it into her body.
