Chapter 518 (2/2)
The First Born went berserk at the same moment, but not necessarily died at the same time. At least Holletta’s First Born was just in deep sleep. Perhaps there were other First Borns which were still active in this universe. He could not afford to attract the attention of those ancient creatures.
So in the end he could only shake his head. “I’ll leave behind a proliferation-type passive radar station watching the universe, and capturing all communication signals. The radar station must be a little farther away to prevent attracting the First Born to Holletta.”
The MDT whistled and said, “Roger that!”
A hatch on the upper part of the Petrachelys opened. A silver-white rectangular equipment measuring several metres in length was raised from the garage, which was then turned into a beam of light and disappeared into the vast space. It would be monitoring the area in a long-term basis and continuing to replicate itself, setting up radar stations in more and more distant galaxies until the entire universe was under its observation. Hao Ren had no clue this would work out because he did not read the manual. But he felt that this thing looked pretty high-tech and might work.
He ordered the autonomous robots send the seed back to the lab on board the spacecraft. After collecting some more samples of tentacles and debris on the lunar surface, they left the place.
They returned to the Alamanda transit point in Tannagost. Hao Ren tucked away the ship, but leaving behind an autonomous robot. He let the little robot procure materials needed to build a series of protective walls, at least blocking the square, and if possible, reinforcing it into a fortress. The next time he came he would bring some weapons and beefed up the defence capability of Alamanda Transit Plaza.
The light purple film that connected The Plane of Dreams with Surface World was still emitting a regular glow. This space crack had completely stabilized. As they passed through the film, they immediately felt a cold wind blowing on their faces.
Before them was the dark and vast snowfield. In the blink of an eye, they were already back in Andrea Castle.
“I really didn’t expect to have so many things happened in this trip,” Lily tucked her ears and transformed back into the human form. She sounded very happy as she said, “I thought that it would be just a casual trip, little did I expect it took a little more than a week.”
Hao Ren also looked at the snow scene in front of him, his heart filled with emotion. Returning from The Plane of Dreams to the Surface World had always brought about an inexplicable sense of fragmentation. This time, crossing both worlds through the space cracks was no exception.
Nangong Wuyue was the first jumped off the stone platform. “Let’s go and spook the Andrea family.”
Hao Ren: “…..”
It was not known whether Nangong Wuyue had a premonition or it was a coincidence, the moment they pushed open the iron door down at the crypt they saw Igor out there. The old man was dusting those old portraits of his family when he heard a sound behind the iron door, thinking that the evil spirit had come back for revenge. As he turned around he saw the witch and the masters who had disappeared for a week. He clapped his hands in surprise. “Hey—”
Then he blacked out again.
The butler was beside him and Igor passed out and seemed to have got used to this rhythm as he held up his master and performed some acupuncture and the aromatherapy on Igor—as Igor’s condition was quite serious this time. Igor came back on and looked at Hao Ren and several others, dumbfounded. “You’ve been missing for a week…I thought something had happened to you guys!”
“We’ve gone to a faraway place,” Vivian smiled. “It was about magic. So please don’t ask.”
