"Notify logistics to bring over a large cage and place it where she just disappeared."
"Additionally, split into three teams to keep watch back and forth, even if it takes a month or a year, keep it under surveillance!"
...
The situation was urgent at that time, they didn’t have time to think much — what could it possibly be that made him drink it without feeling a thing, and what kind of magic could, in just a sentence or two, attract flying insects from four neighboring provinces?
The base, although there were no casualties, was severely weakened. Apart from the underground seed vault being unaffected, the entire base was deserted, and not a single edible thing could be found.
The next tasks they had to undertake were twofold: rapidly expand the subterranean agricultural base and swiftly repair the five water sources to supply the entire base and even meet the needs of neighboring provinces.
The busier the state they’re in, the less they can tolerate any mistake. Since Song You disappeared and reappeared in this room, does it mean she cannot leave the point of her disappearance?
Playing a waiting game, as taught in fables since childhood — everyone was too good at that!
...
Even in the energy-abundant environment of the Spiritual Spring Space, it couldn’t soothe Song You’s current worry and fear.
—— What on earth is happening?
Why does Lei Yu look so terrifying?
Why are they trying to catch her at the first moment?
Is it because the Spiritual Spring was exposed?
Impossible, it’s colorless and tasteless, and Lei Yu drank it without issue. Even the insects couldn’t find its source and only launched headless attacks, so how could he find it?
But if such a golden finger isn’t exposed, why would someone like Lei Yu necessarily want to capture her?
She also heard the orders from before.
A month, a year?
Alone in this space, she neither had the mind to study nor the thought to improve herself; she might go insane in a week.
—— How can she endure this?
And how can she escape?
Song You paced frantically in the space, her eyes fixated on the second drop of Spiritual Spring just emerged nearby.
Was the arrival of the insects really due to the Spiritual Spring?
If so, by spilling the Spiritual Spring again, could she lure the tiger away from the mountain?
Song You thought she had a plan, but when she picked up the bowl, she found the only two drops of Spiritual Spring inside. Once outside the space, it also needed her to leave the range of the cage.
And now, before her, was a solidly built iron cage!
...
Meanwhile.
In the base hospital.
Li Chang’an and Chu River fell into a spiritual power-overdrawn slumber together.
After setting the cage, Lei Yu came over to check on them. The doctor’s expression was quite sorrowful—
"All I can say is Mr. Li’s condition is relatively better, but he can’t use his spiritual power at such high frequencies anymore for a long while, and painkillers must not be used again."
"But as for Miss Chu..."
The doctor hesitated, struggling with his words: "I asked those who were caring for her, she has a spiritual power superpower, correct?"
"But now, the instruments show her brain area is shattered, and multiple shadows appear in the spiritual power region... it’s very likely she will completely lose her superpower."
In this battle, though no one died directly, many people, due to excessive overdraw, have completely lost their superpowers.
Lei Yu looked at the doctor, fully aware that the doctor hadn’t uttered the worst prediction; he didn’t want to hear it, it was just too cruel.
Under the gnawing of countless insects, she persevered for over ten hours!
But in the end, he could only sigh:
"Please tell me."
No matter what, the base will never wrong its heroes.
...
The doctor could only continue with his regretful speculation—
"Currently, Miss Chu is still in a coma; we’ve given all kinds of stimuli but received no response, not even the basic reflex abilities though her heartbeat and breathing remain stable..."
"If we’re not mistaken, her brain area is completely shattered, which not only means the disappearance of her spiritual power but also indicates the disruption or loss of her cognition or core memories... among other impacts."
Lei Yu’s face turned deathly pale instantly—
He looked at his side’s sleeping, battle-worn comrade — she was just a young girl!
Why must fate be so cruel?
He turned away, asking with difficulty and pain the words in his heart
"Are you saying... she might become an idiot?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a familiar voice beside him cursed at him—
"You’re the damn idiot!"
