That night, when Qi Lingyan was about to sleep with Ning Yan, he heard an unusual sound.

"Did you hear any sound?" She said, her mental power started to search for the source of the sound little by little, and the muffled sounds were infinitely amplified under the induction of mental power.

Ning Yan listened carefully and shook her head, "I didn't hear anything, did you hear it wrong?"

"Maybe." She said, but she didn't give up searching with her mental power. She didn't think she would have auditory hallucinations, especially now that her mental power is getting stronger.

"I found it." Her mental power finally stopped at the door of the basement, and the source of the sound seemed to come from there.

"Where is it?" Ning Yan looked at her and asked.

"The basement, is there something in there? I feel as if something is hitting." She frowned and said, got up and put on the clothes she just took off and put on the side, her eyelids kept beating, her heart Suddenly it became heavy, as if something uncontrollable was about to happen.

"I don't know, but...there is mother's laboratory below. There should be nothing alive in it. Mother said that she only kept the cube in this laboratory..." Ning Yan thought for a while, a little hesitant .She has been there before, and there must be no living things in it.

But Ling Yan said that she heard the impact, and seeing Ling Yan who was about to leave, Ning Yan reached out and took her hand.

"I'll go with you." He hesitated and said.

"No need, go to Xiaoyu's room and watch. I'll go down alone..." Before Qi Lingyan finished speaking, Ning Yan directly rejected her.

"You don't have the permission to open the laboratory, only I have it. What's more, two people are better than one." Ning Yan said, without waiting for her answer, she got out of bed, put on her clothes, and opened the closet metal box.

Seeing Ning Yan's movements, she swallowed the words that had reached her throat.It is right or wrong to say that machine builders have no fighting power. They have fighting power.

It's just not worth mentioning compared to people who fight full-time.But don't forget that what they are good at is not fighting, but making various machines.

There are many things, only they can know what kind of power they have when they are themselves.

"Actually, you don't come here. I don't think there will be any danger. This is Junia's home, isn't it? You won't raise any strange beasts here." Qi Lingyan looked at Ning Yan who came out with her and said. .

"Don't try to lie to me. The way you looked just now, is your intuition coming out again." Ning Yan squinted at her and waited for me here. I will go and see Xiaoyu first, and then I will go with you.

"The defense set by mother is not something you can handle with your bare hands." Ning Yan looked at her without any weapons, "Don't make fun of yourself."

"this is for you."

"Where did you come from?" Qi Lingyan took it over and took a look. It was a high-energy particle gun. Judging from the shape of this gun, it should be a standard one.

"Yunia gave it to me, saying it was for my self-defense." Ning Yan shrugged her shoulders and went to Xiaoyu and the others' room.

She knew that Ning Yan had to come together, so it shouldn't matter.She raised her hand and touched her eyes, and the anxiety in her heart seemed to have disappeared.

Standing in front of the elevator door leading to the basement, Qi Lingyan waited for Ning Yan to come down.

Ning Yan checked Xiaoyu and the others, and arranged some things by the way.She felt that if something really went wrong in the basement, it would probably be the cube that hadn't been researched yet.

"Let me check first." Ning Yan walked over, looked at her, and entered some characters on the display screen on the side of the elevator.

A light screen appeared in front of them, and several pictures were displayed on it.

Ning Yan explained, "This is the monitor installed earlier, and you can see some pictures. It was installed mainly because of fear of problems with the cube."

"Why can't I see these pictures." She pointed to the enlarged six snowflake-shaped pictures in the upper left corner, "What's wrong?"

"It seems to be disturbed, I'll try to fix it." Ning Yan said, operating her fingers on the virtual keyboard that appeared under the light screen.

There was a crackling sound on the screen, and the screen appeared for two seconds, but there was only a blur of blue light.

"It can't be repaired, it seems that I can't see what happened. The location of these monitoring installations happens to be in the laboratory where the cube is." Ning Yan exhaled and looked at her a little frustrated. Said.

"These pictures, and those disturbed pictures, can you go back and see what happened." She pointed to the few surveillance pictures showing the empty corridor, "Can you go back in time, I think There might be some clues."

The two stood outside the elevator, and the impact she could hear just now seemed to have weakened.At least she can't hear now. If it wasn't for the monitoring problem, she and Ning Yan might not feel that something happened.

"A1——A4 is monitored normally, and there is no abnormality in the scan, A7...what is this!!" Ning Yan has almost the highest authority, and the only person who can be higher than her is her mother Ning Yu.So it's a very simple thing to just rewind the monitoring time.

What surprised her was what appeared on the monitoring screen. She turned the time back a few minutes ago, and there was a huge hole in the metal door of the passage outside the cube room, and a hideous creature poked its head out of that hole. .

Finally, the monitoring screen disappeared.

She and Ning Yan were even more surprised by the reversed monitoring content in the room where the cube was located. The cube was originally placed in a glass cover, but suddenly the glass cover burst, and a blue film spread out from the cube... The screen has now disappeared.

"It seems that this cube is really a very big trouble." Qi Lingyan smiled bitterly. She originally planned to contact the people of the empire tomorrow to bring the cube back. Now it seems that it may be before contacting.

She should probably fight that monster from nowhere first.

"I'll go down alone, you go and watch Xiaoyu and the others." Qi Lingyan said while looking at the monsters running in the blank surveillance.

Ning Yan did not insist this time either, she gritted her teeth and said, "I will transfer the highest authority to you, the defense system inside will not attack you, but this thing looks very dangerous, don't get into trouble."

"I have fought many mutant beasts, don't you know that. And this one is not big, so don't worry." She said, but Ning Yan was not comforted by her at all.

mutant beast?At least Ning Yan didn't know that there was such a mutant beast.

Sharp mouthparts, snake-like body, insect-like arthropods, and a pair of indistinct dragonfly-like wings growing on its back.If the three-meter-high body hadn't been crawling on the ground, if it stood up, it might directly hit the ceiling made of hard alloy.

Qi Lingyan finds it difficult, but she won't tell Ning Yan about this.The distance between her and that monster is only one door away.

After separating from Ning Yan, she took the elevator down to the second floor of the basement. She thanked Ning Yu for not directly building the laboratory on the basement floor when she built the laboratory.

However, even if this is the case, it seems that it is only a matter of time before the opponent breaks through.

Thinking of the alloy metal door that was corroded with a big hole, in addition to the high-energy gun that Ning Yan gave her, the other thing in her hand was a knife.With a slender and straight body, one side of the blade is extremely sharp.

Everyone is good at one cold weapon. This is the weapon she chose for herself when she was in Silver Star.It was also the first time Qi Lingyan knew that in the interstellar era, cold weapons were sometimes more useful than technological weapons.

The huge monster pounced on her, and the liquid from its mouth fell to the ground with a sizzling sound, and the metal alloy was corroded out of small holes.

In the narrow passage, there were only her and the monster in front of her.Compared with the strange beast, the monster in front of him was obviously better.She looked at the wing behind the monster that had a hole shot through it.

He wanted to hit the monster's head, but was dodged.To seize that opportunity, she was also swept by the tail of the monster.Using the method just now again, Qi Lingyan found that the monster in front of him was no longer fooled.

amazing study?She let out a howl of pain after seeing the monster being injured, and her huge yellow vertical pupils stared at the delicate nipple in her hand.

The energy in this gun is estimated to be exhausted after two more launches.

It is not a mutant beast, and it is preliminarily judged to have inferior intelligence.Saliva has a corrosive function, the body is extremely tough, and the role of the transparent film wings is not yet known.

Qi Lingyan's thoughts turned quickly, if she couldn't stop the monster in front of her, it would be a disaster...

Possession of wisdom, even paramecium-like wisdom, also proves that it has brains.Having a brain means being conscious, so is the impact of mental warfare useful to the monster in front of you?

She condensed her mental power into a bundle, and she has not used mental power as a weapon since just now.After four years of study, she is still better at close combat, just like she did just now.

He put away the gun in his hand, and pulled out the long knife tied behind his back.For the monster, the narrow passage was just right for her.

The monster in front of him didn't know what it felt, it seemed to be very restless, and it kept moving its huge body.

I can feel the spiritual power, this cognition makes Qi Lingyan raise his eyebrows, can he feel that he can resist it?She knew that some mutant beasts had evolved the ability to resist mental power, the one in front of her.

Because he didn't know how much mental power the monster in front of him could resist, Qi Lingyan concentrated 40.00% of his mental power using tactics and hit the monster's brain.

With a loud roar of pain, the monster crazily hit its head, attacking her like crazy.She raised her hand. This knife was forged using a special method and metal ore, etc., and it came from a certain practical task reward.

Its special feature is that it can withstand a huge amount of mental power coverage, just like a charged one.In addition to being covered with mental power, he slashed out with one blow, and a wound appeared on the huge snake tail.

From just now, Qi Lingyan discovered that the wound of the monster in front of her was healing very fast.As for the wounds created by this weapon, her mental power would prevent the wounds from healing.

Dark green blood flowed out, Qi Lingyan looked at the corroded place, the monster's body was full of corrosive acidic liquid.

She didn't have the idea of ​​trying to see if she could melt her body. With a light jump, she jumped over the monster's corpse.Raising his hand to wipe away the blood from the corner of his mouth, he threw out the knife in his hand vigorously, like cutting tofu, the entire body of the knife sank into the hard carapace part of the monster's heart that was smashed in front of him.

"What exactly is it?" After confirming that the monster was completely dead, she stabbed the knife.Leave the monster's body where it was.Qi Lingyan did not forget the reason why she came down, besides solving the monster, more importantly, the cube was placed in the deep laboratory.

Ning Yan stayed in Xiaoyu's room, worried about Qi Lingyan's situation.She waited and waited until Qi Lingyan came back, and stood up frowning.

"No more." Huo Ran got up and walked downstairs.

Qi Lingyan walked into the room where the cube was placed, and there were shards of glass all over the floor.The cube she had heard Ning Yan said floated quietly on that platform, and a faint blue film of light opened. She connected a series of clues together, and could almost imagine what happened at that time.

Just as she approached the cube carefully, the blue light film she got suddenly closed into a line and finally condensed into a point, which was taken back by the cube.

The cube also fell onto the metal platform, and it no longer looked as weird as before.But what happened just now really made Qi Lingyan unable to forget it.

Could that monster have something to do with the blue light film emitted by the cube? She looked at the pitted floor extending from where she was standing now, and the corroded metal door that was almost completely melted.

Qi Lingyan looked around the entire laboratory room, and found a box in the side cabinet. The shape of the box resembled a cube, and it was all silver and white.The shape is like a standard hexahedron, engraved with some messy lines.

She didn't understand this, so she walked over and took the hexahedral box in her hand, fiddled with her fingers and opened it.

There was a square recess in it, and her eyes fell back to the unmoving cube on the metal platform.It's like there should have been a cube placed in this box.

She walked over, reached out and put the cube into the box, closed the lid, and it fit perfectly.

I can't put this cube here anymore, Qi Lingyan thought to himself, took the box and left.If the situation just now happened again, she didn't think she could do anything more.

When Ning Yan came down, she saw the corpse lying in the middle of the aisle, she was so frightened that she almost screamed out.Fortunately, she was not someone who had never seen a mutant beast. After taking a few deep breaths, she calmed down completely.

Skipping the dark green blood-like liquid, she ran into Qi Lingyan who was walking back as she was walking.

"Are you all right?"

"Why did you come down?" The two spoke at the same time.

"I can't wait upstairs anymore, so I'll come down and have a look." Ning Yan answered Ling Yan's question first, could she say that she couldn't sit still because she couldn't feel the sound even with mental strength.

Feeling a little embarrassed.

Qi Lingyan looked at the corpses still lying on the ground, those corrosive liquids, "Let's go back first, let the robot clean up here."

"En." Ning Yan nodded obediently, without refuting her.

After returning to the living room, Qi Lingyan handed the box in her hand to Ning Yan, and she went up to wash up.Fighting with that monster just now, the clothes on her body were scratched to the point of counting.

Ning Yan just saw the dark red after the blood coagulated on her body, so she knew that she must be injured, so she couldn't sit still.She ran to find the medical box, looking at the silver-white box in her hand.

"You actually brought this thing out." She frowned slightly, she knew what was inside the box without opening it.

Her mother told her that this box was originally used to hold the cube, but after she took the cube out, it has been placed in the cabinet without being touched.

When Qi Lingyan came out of the bathroom, she saw Ning Yan sitting by the bed, she asked suspiciously, "Didn't I tell you to wait for me downstairs?"

"I found medicine for you, where is your injury?" Ning Yan looked at her and asked her to sit beside her.

"It's not very serious." She shook her head and saw the silver metal box on the bedside. "When I went down, I saw this thing..."

"I'll give you the medicine first, you can tell me about this later." Ning Yan told her to turn around.

After the wound on the back was washed by the tip of the monster's tail just now, there was a [-] to [-] cm long wound on the white back, with bright red blood oozing out, and the flesh was turned up.

Seeing such an injury, Ning Yan felt distressed for a while, "The injury is so serious, you still say it's okay?!"

"Compared to the previous one, ahem, this kind of wound is actually not serious. Fortunately, it is not poisonous." Qi Lingyan was about to say, but suddenly noticed that the force on the wound was getting heavier, and quickly changed his words.

"Before, before what, why didn't I know that you had been injured so badly." Ning Yan asked, but the movements of her hands became lighter, just like what Ling Yan said, but luckily it wasn't poisonous.

Otherwise, it is definitely not acceptable to deal with it like this.

"It's nothing, I remember wrongly. Xiaoyu and the others didn't wake up." She changed the subject. If she knew what happened last time, Ning Yan would probably grab her and scold her.

"No, they're still asleep." Ning Yan heard what she said, and she didn't ask any further questions.

"What's the matter with that monster lying down there?" Ning Yan asked after wrapping up the wounds on her body with bandages and applying good medicine to the smaller wounds.

Qi Lingyan put on his clothes, and answered Ning Yan's words, "When I went down, I saw a cube floating, and a blue film opened. I suspect that the monster came out of it."

"What?" Ning Yan was a little surprised when she heard her words, "How could it be possible for a monster to come out of the film..."

"I don't quite believe it either, but I can't think of anything else besides this. And that monster doesn't feel the same as the mutant beast. As for the difference, I can't tell." Qi Lingyan thought about it, but didn't say why. Come.

"One thing is certain, that monster is very adaptable. From the surveillance video, it didn't take more than 15 minutes between when it appeared and when we noticed it."

"In the process of fighting it, I found that its ability has been improving. For example, if you give me a gun, the first time you hit it, it almost destroys half of its wings. The second time you hit its abdomen It just left a wound that couldn't even be penetrated." Qi Lingyan said these slowly.

"And when I used mental power to attack its brain, it was still alive and able to attack me. I'm sure that its brain should have been shattered at that time."

"I saw a carapace on its chest. Where is it?" Ning Yan's observation skills were very keen. When she went down, she observed what could be said to be a fatal wound.

"Where should be its heart, when it attacked that place before, it would behave a little differently." She said.

"Whether to send this thing back to the empire has really become a problem now." Qi Lingyan looked at the box in his palm with a hesitant expression.

Keep it in your hand, that's impossible.Who knows if the film will reappear next time, and what will appear inside.Sending it back to the empire is also a good way. The empire won't have any trouble dealing with such monsters.

Moreover, there might be a way to destroy it.

"Why do you want to send it back?" Ning Yan looked at her and pointed to the box in her hand, and said word by word, "Why do you want to send it back."

"...I don't know." Qi Lingyan was silent for a while, if Ning Yan hadn't asked, she wouldn't have thought of this question.

"Mother asked us to take this back. She said that Junia told us to take this back. But now that such a monster has come out of it, will it be possible to send it back..." Ning Yan was in the middle of her sentence, horrified. Another thing came to mind.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Ning Yan's strange expression, she put her hand on her shoulder and asked in a soft voice.

"I remembered, Junia said, these things come in pairs. If there is one here, then there must be another one elsewhere." Ning Yan looked at her with an ugly expression.

"You mean, maybe the other one is already in the empire." Apparently she also thought of this question, her face was sour and she didn't know where to go.

"Don't be so pessimistic, nothing happened in the empire right now, maybe not." She comforted Ning Yan, "I'll contact Junia about the cube, she must know more, but she didn't tell us."

Just a sentence, this thing has something to do with human beings, so it has to be taken back.Is it too easy to say, Qi Lingyan gritted his teeth in his heart.

After contacting Junia, I finally got a little bit of information about the cube from Junia.

"The best way is to take this back. The other one must have caused waves in your civilization, but you don't know it yet." Junia didn't seem surprised to receive her communication.

"Maybe this cube is very important, even if it is aimed at your civilization, it will not be a fatal situation." Junia looked at her seriously, "Believe me, there is no civilization I know that has not come this way , will never let civilization be destroyed in your hands.”

Ning Yan looked at her after hearing what she told Junia, "Then what do you think?"

"What to do, tell the truth, and then send the things back." Qi Lingyan shook her head, and said what she had considered.

"There is no room for us to intervene in this matter, hand over the things, and then let's get out of here."

"That's it, don't worry about it." Ning Yan looked at her, a little surprised.

"Well, never mind." Qi Lingyan nodded, she thought of the fact that there was no news after Alor and Sujin left, and some secret transfers of the empire before.

Perhaps, as Junia said, the problem has already appeared, but it has not spread to the point where everyone knows it.
