In the silent night, the sea breeze gently hit the beach. The coconut trees rustled, and there was a beautiful sound of insects chirping in the grass. This kind of night on an island made people feel good, and it was easy to fall asleep.
Ji Chenxue went back to her room and took a comfortable hot shower. After she enjoyed some red wine and pastries, she lay quietly on the soft bed and fell asleep. She hadn't been so relaxed in a long time.
Just as she was having a beautiful dream, her wristband suddenly vibrated and woke her up. The call was from Ding Meng. There were only two words on the screen: "Open the door!"
If someone else were to disturb her in the middle of the night, it might be a man who had designs on her. However, she knew that Ding Meng was a mature and prudent man. He was also a warrior of Divine Light. He would never do something so boring.
After the door opened, Ding Meng slipped in like a thief. He sat on the sofa with a leisurely look on his face.
"What's wrong?" Ji Chenxue was confused. It was 2: 45 in the morning.
Ding Meng picked up the bottle of red wine on the coffee table and took a sip. Then he choked and coughed violently.
Ji Chenxue laughed and said, "It's not like you don't have any red wine in the freezer in your room."
There was a hint of dissatisfaction in his words. Why were you disturbing my sleep in the middle of the night?
Ding Meng smacked his lips and said, "I'm just a country bumpkin. I've never drunk such high-end stuff. I can't drink it."
Ji Chenxue sat on the sofa opposite him. She was wearing a soft, white V-neck nightgown. The Divine Light necklace around her neck was very exquisite. At the same time, her snow-white skin under the necklace was very eye-catching. Plus, her fair legs were exposed. Her elegant sitting posture was very seductive.
Ding Meng couldn't help but take a few more glances at her. Ji Chenxue didn't mind. She was used to such looks when she was in the Empire.
However, at this time, Ding Meng glanced at the switch beside the bed. The light in the room went out with a swoosh.
Ji Chenxue finally felt a little uneasy. "What are you doing?"
Ding Meng stretched out a finger. "Ten minutes left!"
Ji Chenxue was puzzled. "What do you mean?"
Ding Meng said, "I just received a message from Little Rascal and the others. An unmarked transport ship took off from the coastline and is heading towards the research institute. It will arrive here in ten minutes."
Ji Chenxue immediately understood what was going on. An unmarked spaceship was too thought-provoking. Furthermore, it was flying over at this time. This was definitely not normal.
Ding Meng had already stood up and walked to the window. He turned the crystal glass back to normal. "You must not use your telekinesis now. Otherwise, we will be exposed."
Ji Chenxue also came to Ding Meng's side and quietly observed the outside.
The light source of the spaceport was switched on 24 hours a day, so it looked like an empty football field at night.
The staff of the research institute had a very regular schedule. They worked during the day and rested at night. Now that it was late at night, almost everyone would be asleep at this time.
However, Ji Chenxue soon saw a figure appear in the spaceport's passageway. This person was Lin Kejia's female assistant. The female assistant looked up at the sky, obviously waiting for someone.
In less than ten minutes, a sparkling light appeared in the night sky. The light gradually grew bigger and bigger, and sure enough, it looked like a spaceship. This spaceship was no ordinary spaceship. Its shape was very exquisite. At a glance, it was about the size of a large flying car. Most importantly, when it landed, the bottom of the spaceship was spewing out crystal flames, but it didn't make a single sound.
This was definitely a high-tech product. No wonder it attracted the attention of the Divine Arrow spaceship.
After the connecting cabin opened, a large group of people walked out. They were all wearing black suits and large sunglasses. Without using their telekinesis, it was difficult to see their faces clearly.
The female assistant quickly stepped forward. The man in the black suit didn't speak at all. The entourage behind him walked up with a metal box. After opening it, he carefully took out an exquisite crystal card. The female assistant turned on her wristwatch and carefully scanned the card with a ray.
Neither side said a word. It was like a silent pantomime.
Ding Meng and Ding Meng saw clearly that the indicator light on the female assistant's wristwatch had turned green. Then, the female assistant bowed respectfully and made a gesture of invitation. The group of men in black suits disappeared into the research institute building like ghosts.
At this moment, Ding Meng couldn't stay still. He turned his head and said, "Do you want to do it, or should I?"
Ji Chenxue said, "You should do it. Your telekinesis is stronger than mine."
The two of them quickly established a telepathic link. Meanwhile, Ding Meng controlled a large number of telekinesis dots to scan the passageways of the five floors. This time, it was slightly more difficult to scan the passageways because the dots didn't touch the walls as much as possible to avoid being rebounded.
Ji Chenxue also saw very clearly through Ding Meng's link. After the group of people entered the elevator on the first floor, they didn't come out again. However, the elevator doors from the second to the fifth floor were never opened.
"They've gone underground!" Ji Chenxue deduced.
Ding Meng said, "It seems that there's something wrong with this research institute."
Ji Chenxue said decisively, "Let's go down too!"
Ding Meng pondered for a moment. "With your status, it's still not appropriate for you to go down there. I'll go. If I don't come back by morning, you and Aunt Xueyan will leave by boat. You can wait for me at the hotel."
Ji Chenxue was a little hesitant. "This is a restricted military area. Is that okay?"
Ding Meng sighed. "I don't think we can find any useful clues from an open and aboveboard interview. When it comes to sneaking around, I'm still better than you."
Ji Chenxue smiled. "That's true."
Ding Meng said again, "Can you lend me your necklace this time? I want to use it to sense energy."
Ji Chenxue showed a hesitant expression, but after thinking about it, he still took off the necklace from his neck. "Be careful. Lin Kejia's male assistant is very strong. I don't know how many experts like him are hiding on this island. I have a feeling that the security forces of this restricted military area are not as simple as they seem."
Ji Chenxue quickly tied the Divine Light Necklace to Ding Meng's neck. Ding Meng noticed the Divine Light Imprint on his face and immediately had a strange reaction. A connection was quickly established between the two of them, and a large amount of telepathic information entered his brain.
Soon, Ji Chenxue was dumbfounded. In addition to the various ways to use the necklace, the telepathic information also stored a large number of personal photos of Ji Chenxue. Most of them were cool selfies that would make one's blood boil. It was obvious that Ji Chenxue usually dressed like an elegant noble in public, but every woman loved beauty and took many sexy selfies in private.
Any one of these pictures of stockings, nets, and uniforms would probably cause a sensation in the entire Federal Empire. Who knew that a goddess could also have such a charming side. The key was that Ji Chenxue had personally tied the necklace for Ding Meng. The two of them were less than half a meter apart, and Ji Chenxue's breath was almost on Ding Meng's face. Ding Meng instantly felt that the heat on his face was at least 500,000 degrees Celsius.
"Well …" Ding Meng was embarrassed. "Sorry, I didn't expect you to keep these in the necklace."
Ji Chenxue's face also blushed, which was rare. "It's okay if you see it, but don't spread it!"
The iron-willed straight man's brain had no circuit. He was stubborn to the end. "Just delete these pictures. I don't think they're useful!"
"No!"
Ji Chenxue said coquettishly. "All my selfies over the years are stored in the necklace. It's safe to store them in the necklace. If you delete them, you'll destroy all my efforts."
Her voice made Ding Meng feel that his bones had become lighter, and her breath was a little unbearable for him. More importantly, their posture was very ambiguous.
Ding Meng decisively stepped back. "Okay, thank you for your trust. Wait for me to come back!"
With that, he disappeared with a swoosh. Obviously, he had used his super fast movement skill to rush downstairs.
Ji Chenxue also felt that her face was burning hot. It was like a young girl's secret being seen by a young man. She was extremely shy. As someone who had experienced a lot, this wonderful feeling was incredible. It was like the first intimate contact between lovers.
Unfortunately, she had never experienced this before. Ding Meng had already flashed to the hall on the first floor. He had already cast the Green Spirit Spell and activated the Manipulation Spell. Now, other than Lin Kejia himself, the staff of the research institute, the smart robot guards, and the various surveillance cameras would not be able to find him.
After entering the elevator, Ding Meng decisively started the descent on the light and shadow panel. The panel did not indicate the basement level, and the elevator was completely sealed. He could not see what was outside.
After descending for five minutes, the elevator doors opened. What appeared in front of him was a super spacious underground hall. Twenty commendable servers were neatly arranged in two rows. Each of them was a huge silver sphere. The liquid metal on the surface was flowing slowly. The hall was full of light, and it was as bright as day.
The problem was that there was no one here. Where was everyone?
Where was the group of black suits?
Ding Meng moved forward cautiously. He scanned his surroundings carefully. Other than the servers, there were various application cabins embedded in the walls. They were flashing with green light. Obviously, there was no one here.
It turned out that the commendable servers on the fifth floor were just decorations. This was the core of the research institute.
No, Ding Meng's mind was clearer at this moment. The energy consumption of a single server was huge. Twenty servers would not be able to operate without an extremely strong power source. Now, the servers here were clearly operating. The real power source had not been found yet.
At this moment, Ding Meng felt the mark on his face jump. The Divine Light Necklace spread out a halo. This was clearly an energy response.
This necklace actually had many uses. It was not just for energy storage. Ding Meng had seen clearly how to use it. The necklace had an automatic detection function. It was extremely sensitive to precious resources such as Divine Light energy, Demons energy, and Red True Elemental Crystals. At the same time, it could also identify the Mou people, the Demonic Sky Race, the Ai Ji Race, and the races of the six territories. Ji Chenxue had not been able to use these functions previously because he did not have enough Divine Light energy to activate these functions.
Ding Meng thought for a moment. He gently pinched the pearl on the necklace and summoned the Divine Light Singularity with his thumb. This was the command to activate the necklace. He wanted the Singularity to identify the energy source, not to inject energy into the necklace.
