The brain-like, bloated creature emerging from the water's surface was almost at the same height as the Special Security Bureau elites floating in the air! Meng Guanghui felt a sharp pain in his brain as an extremely penetrating Mental Strength broke through his upgraded mecha helmet, directly stimulating his brain.
The other team members were in even worse condition, with two already convulsing in mid-air, barely able to hold on.
Meng Guanghui anxiously looked at the small Wormhole opener floating beside him, regretting his decision ten thousand times over.
They shouldn't have been so greedy; they should have listened to that Mechanical Intelligence and left immediately...
Now that the Mechanical Intelligence from five hundred years in the future wasn't here to save them, they might still be completely wiped out here!
But with only one minute left, a group of natives appeared, dressed in tattered, colorful rags.
They seemed to be wearing ragged armor, and they held various tools made of Exotic Metal in their hands.
The two natives at the front were huffing and puffing as they carried a large sculpture.
Made of some unknown material, the sculpture was as red as fire, so vivid it seemed to burn!
And the shape...
Meng Guanghui stared intently, almost fainting!
Wasn't that the appearance of the Mechanical Intelligence mecha from five hundred years in the future?!
That Phoenix-like, cool shape, especially the two large wings on its back, was carved with incredible detail!
Even the height was fifteen meters!
This was a one-to-one scale replica!
Only a few hours had passed, and these natives had already carved such a lifelike metal statue, which showed that they had unique methods for smelting Exotic Metal.
Meng Guanghui never expected to see this scene as he faced death.
He couldn't help but feel amused, touched, and a little sad.
He thought that even after hundreds of years, their people hadn't given up searching for them, so he had to do something for his people before he died! Meng Guanghui decided that if they really couldn't go back, he would transmit all the Exotic Metal they had collected through the Wormhole in the last second! That side was a specific receiving point for the Special Security Bureau, highly confidential and secure.
He looked at his timer; there were only thirty seconds left before the small Wormhole finished charging.
Maintaining the Wormhole's operation after it was opened also required a lot of energy, so it couldn't be kept in that state indefinitely.
Right now, it was unclear how long this small Wormhole, which could only allow one person to pass through at a time, could be maintained.
Meng Guanghui and his team members were already exhausted, and one by one, they couldn't even maintain flight, slowly descending from the sky.
Above them, those Scale birds were still chasing after them relentlessly.
In the deep pit lake on the ground, the Brain Mountain Monster, shaped like a brain, had crawled ashore, waiting to swallow them whole.
Meng Guanghui coldly looked at them, holding the special bag filled with Exotic Metal ore in his hand.
At that moment, the natives finally carried the fire-red Phoenix mecha-shaped sculpture to the edge of the deep pit lake.
Then, they all shouted in unison, waving their axes and carving knives, dancing and singing around the fire-red Phoenix mecha sculpture, while baring their teeth at the monsters in the deep pit lake, as if saying, "Come on! Let's hurt each other! I'm not afraid of you anymore!"
Strangely enough, when those Remnant Species monsters saw the appearance of the fire-red Phoenix-shaped sculpture, they reacted as if they had encountered a natural enemy, fleeing even faster than they had come.
The huge monster that wriggled like a brain sank directly to the bottom of the lake with a plop.
The Scale flying birds overhead flapped their wings and flew into the sky, leaving this place far behind.
And those tentacles that had first stretched out from the bottom of the lake like steel vines had now limply retracted, quietly lurking at the bottom of the lake.
The natives looked at each other, even more excited, and their shouts grew louder.
Then, one by one, they prostrated themselves in front of the statue, constantly kowtowing and worshiping.
Meng Guanghui watched coldly, feeling that if he gave them a few incense sticks, they could immediately build a temple here!
...
Without the Mental Strength attacks from those Remnant Species monsters, the Special Security Bureau's elite team members recovered.
This time, they were no longer stubborn or greedy.
They knew that the Remnant Species monsters here were far from being wiped out, and with their equipment and abilities, they couldn't compete with the larger Remnant Species at all.
The small Wormhole opener beside Meng Guanghui finally finished charging at this time.
A dark black vortex appeared beside him.
Meng Guanghui immediately said, "The teleportation has begun. I don't know how long it will last. Hurry!"
The nine team members no longer hesitated and walked into the dark black vortex one by one, being teleported away.
Meng Guanghui was the last.
He was about to enter, but a native boldly approached him and tapped the mecha on his body.
Meng Guanghui stood inside the fifteen-meter-tall mecha, looking at these natives who were about one meter tall, like looking at ants on the ground.
The native who tapped his mecha was holding a small, palm-sized, fiery red Phoenix statue in his hand.
From Meng Guanghui's perspective, if he didn't look closely, he wouldn't be able to see what the fiery red mass in the native's hand was...
Meng Guanghui still used the mecha's high-definition camera system to see what the fiery red mass was.
It was actually a small statue exactly like the fifteen-meter-tall statue.
The native chattered, gesturing with his hands and constantly making flying motions.
Meng Guanghui vaguely understood that he pointed to himself and then to the sky, indicating that the Phoenix mecha was his companion, but it had already flown away.
Of course, the native knew that the fiery red Phoenix had already flown away.
In their hearts, it had become their god! Meng Guanghui didn't understand his words, and the Special Security Bureau's language translation system didn't include this alien language.
But Meng Guanghui still turned on the recorder on the mecha, recording the native's appearance and voice.
Just then, the whole earth seemed to shake, and then the black clouds in the sky suddenly moved quickly.
Anyone on the ground who looked up at the sky would be made dizzy by the fleeting clouds.
At the same time, a huge black hole seemed to appear in the sky ahead, as if the entire planet was rushing into it.
And the dark black vortex beside Meng Guanghui seemed to be suddenly filled with huge energy, overwhelmed, and was rapidly shrinking, about to collapse.
Meng Guanghui didn't know what was happening, but he was sure he couldn't wait any longer.
He leaped up, like a high diver, and plunged directly into the dark black vortex.
The native was also anxious. He wanted to follow, but the dark black vortex seemed to repel him, and he couldn't enter at all!
In the end, he had no choice but to throw the palm-sized, fiery red Phoenix mecha statue in his hand into the dark black vortex before it disappeared.
The palm-sized, fiery red Phoenix statue was surprisingly fast in this dark black vortex, and it arrived before Meng Guanghui, floating in front of him.
Meng Guanghui's mouth twitched, and he reached out and grabbed the statue in his hand.
As soon as the statue was in his hand, it emitted a flame-like light.
The mecha all over his body emitted electric arc-like blue-purple sparks, crackling, and also electrocuted Meng Guanghui inside the mecha.
When he woke up again, he found that he had crossed a small Wormhole, but he was not at the Special Security Bureau's fixed receiving point.
Where is this?
He sat up and looked around.
This was definitely not the mineral-rich Miniature Planet.
Because the surroundings were dense forests, the leaves were lush and green, like high-quality green jade.
The ground was grassland, with green grass like a carpet. Sitting on the ground, it was soft and had a good touch.
He looked around.
Not far away, on the stone steps covered with moss, strands of golden sunlight shone through the gaps in the green branches and leaves.
An ancient black wooden building stood tall at the highest point of the steps.
Under the pointed eaves, white paper lanterns and inverted bell copper bells hung side by side, and the inverted bell copper bells jingled in the breeze.
As soon as Meng Guanghui saw the scenery here, his heart moved, and he immediately knew where he was.
As a senior official of the Special Security Bureau, he had a detailed understanding of the several countries in the entire Beichen Galaxy.
Including their races, customs, architecture, as well as the development stage of weapons, equipment, science and technology.
He had seen this place before.
This was the temple of the East Tianyuan City-State...
Although this country was also an enemy state, its relationship with the Beichen Empire was slightly better than that of countries like the Southern Cross Star Kingdom.
Their Special Security Bureau also had its own strongholds, no, safe houses, here.
Meng Guanghui relaxed and immediately pressed the mecha's operating system, intending to transform the mecha into a Starry Sky Fighter and fly away from this place immediately.
But after a series of operations, the mecha did not transform into a Starry Sky Fighter, but instead folded and shrunk.
Finally, it stuck to his original height, becoming a slightly hard outer armor...
Meng Guanghui's mouth twitched.
He was wearing the Special Security Bureau uniform inside, so he couldn't reveal it at this time.
He had no choice but to find a bush to crawl into and take off the mecha that had already shrunk.
The mecha, detached from his body, immediately automatically reassembled into a large backpack.
He stuffed the special bag containing the Exotic Metal ore and the palm-sized fiery red Phoenix mecha sculpture into the backpack, then took off the Special Security Bureau uniform and put it on inside out.
This was also one of the features of their Special Security Bureau uniform.
It was reversible, and when worn inside out, it was the most ordinary casual wear style, almost unique to each person, and also divided into male and female styles.
Unless someone tore it open to see the inside, no one would ever think that this was the uniform of the Beichen Empire's Special Security Bureau.
Meng Guanghui put the backpack on again, looking like an ordinary person coming to the temple to worship.
He walked out of the bushes and looked at the path leading to the temple steps.
The roof of the black wooden building was covered with green glazed tiles, adorned with colorful paintings of various beasts and patterns.
Near the temple steps, there was a clear pond.
In the pond, various colored koi swam around, and the rustling sound of spring water constantly gurgled from the ground.
The smoke from burning incense drifted from the black building, and a red-headed, black-backed bird cut through the sky, shuttling through the green branches and leaves.
There was also a small wishing pavilion by the roadside, with an exquisite bronze incense burner inside.
A straight wisp of white smoke rose slowly from the incense burner, dissipating into the green tranquility.
This scene was like a dream, and Meng Guanghui was dazed for a moment.
This is the first update, the second update will be at 1 PM.
