"Son! Son! " This was the first time the black donkey had seen someone of its own kind, and it was extremely happy. However, just as it was about to pounce, Kongdao's white donkey raised its head proudly and kicked out at an incomparably fast speed.
The speed of the kick was so fast that the black donkey couldn't even react before it was kicked away. With a bang, the black donkey was sent flying.
With a thump, it landed on the ground. Although the black donkey wasn't injured, it had a stupefied expression on its face, as if it had never expected that its opponent would actually kick it.
"White Phoenix!" Kongdao berated. Immediately, the white donkey stopped its charge. With a disdainful expression, the white donkey glanced at the stupefied black donkey before returning to Kongdao's side. After obediently rubbing itself against his leg, Kongdao cupped his fists and saluted Chen Feng. Only then did he leave with the prideful white donkey.
Wang Baole was infuriated when he saw this. He glanced at the stupefied and innocent donkey and did not say anything. After all, this was a military base. Moreover, it was his own donkey that had taken the initiative to charge over, as if it was asking for a kick.
As such, he pretended as if nothing had happened and continued talking to Wang Baole about the Baole Cannon. When they arrived at the assembly camp, Wang Baole used the excuse of going to the washroom as an excuse to grab the donkey and enter …
The moment he entered, Wang Baole turned around and glared at the donkey with its ears drooping down, an angry expression on his face.
"Where's your ability, huh? Look at you, aren't you a disgrace? You were actually sent flying by a female donkey with a single kick! Look at how arrogant you are at home, how amazing you are, even daring to bite me! What about now? Where's your ability? "
The donkey evidently understood what Wang Baole was saying. Its body trembled, and its eyes reddened.
"Sigh, to think that I, Wang Baole, am so suave and elegant. I've killed so many people in my generation, and no one dares to provoke me. It has always been others who are at a disadvantage, but I've never encountered a time when I've been at a disadvantage. But you little donkey, you can't even handle a little female donkey, and you've even been beaten up. Are you still a male donkey?
Wang Baole sighed. If it was only Kongdao's donkey that was powerful, it would have been fine. However, his own donkey actually took the initiative to get beaten up. If this wasn't a military camp, Wang Baole would have taken action.
When the donkey heard Wang Baole's words, and saw Wang Baole looking down on it, it began to pant. Its eyes grew redder and redder, and for the first time in its life, its expression changed from one of innocence to one of rage. It turned its head, as if it could see through the walls and sense the direction of the donkey. It glared at the donkey for a long moment, then gritted its teeth.
It was as if its hatred had reached a certain level and turned into an obsession.
"What's the use of swearing? When you're strong in the future, go and beat it up. Beat it to the ground. That's what you're capable of! "Wang Baole snorted. After teaching the donkey a lesson, he couldn't help but lament again before leaving.
"What a disgrace!"
As he said that, Wang Baole, who had walked out of the washroom, didn't notice that his donkey's eyes were now even more bloodshot. It was looking in the direction of the white donkey, its eyes filled with rage and savagery. It had an expression that said, "Just you wait."
Wang Baole, who had walked out of the washroom, suppressed the displeasure in his heart and joined in to guide the assembly. Under his guidance, a Baole Cannon was quickly assembled. After testing the data, under General Chen Feng's praise, Wang Baole didn't hide anything and personally guided a group of Martian military consultants.
After busying himself for half a day, he finally taught the consultants how to assemble the cannon and how to encrypt the inscriptions. He and Chen Feng personally inspected the cannon and found that there were no problems. Only then did Wang Baole prepare to bid farewell to Chen Feng and leave.
"General Chen, if there's nothing else, I …" Wang Baole turned around and spoke to Chen Feng. However, before he could finish speaking, suddenly, Chen Feng's voice transmission ring vibrated.
After checking, Chen Feng's expression changed greatly.
"Baole, you can leave first. I still have other matters to attend to, so I won't see you off." After saying that, Chen Feng turned around and left with an incomparably solemn expression. Wang Baole instinctively felt that something big had happened. He had originally planned to ask about Lin Tianhao, but now was obviously not the right time. However, just as he was about to leave, suddenly, his voice transmission ring rang as well.
"Wang Baole, I just received news that something has happened to the team Lin Tianhao is in. I'm not very clear about the exact reason. After I ask around, I'll tell you." The person who transmitted the message was Li Waner.
Hearing Li Waner's transmission, Wang Baole's body trembled and his expression froze. Thinking of Chen Feng's solemn expression just now, Wang Baole abruptly raised his head and looked at Chen Feng who was rapidly leaving. At this moment, he couldn't be bothered with anything else and suddenly spoke loudly.
"General Chen, my academy's vice-dean, Lin Tianhao, once joined the military team on my behalf. I wonder if there's any news about him?"
Hearing Wang Baole's words, Chen Feng, who was rapidly moving forward, paused his steps and abruptly turned around. He gave Wang Baole a deep look and frowned slightly. Just as he was about to speak, Wang Baole had already walked over quickly and spoke again.
"I've communicated with Lin Tianhao's father before. He also knows that his son was recruited on my behalf. General Chen, regarding this matter, I have to give Councilor Lin You an explanation!"
Wang Baole's words were extremely timely. If it had only been due to his personal reasons, Chen Feng's original plan would not have been to tell Wang Baole about this matter. Even if Wang Baole had a close relationship with the military, the Martian military was relatively independent.
However, on top of Wang Baole's foundation, adding Councilor Lin You … This matter was something even he had to think about. Ultimately, he gave Wang Baole a deep look.
"I'm not too clear about the details. Come with me!"
After Chen Feng spoke, the orderlies beside him immediately arrived in front of Wang Baole. After inspecting him, they brought him onto Chen Feng's cruiser. Soon, the cruiser whistled through the air and headed straight for the command center of the 36th District.
Along the way, Chen Feng did not speak. He merely transmitted one voice transmission after another. As for Wang Baole, it was not appropriate for him to speak. He had an ominous premonition in his heart. While he was feeling anxious, they soon arrived at the command center of the military. Here, as the two alighted from the cruiser and entered a huge room with a huge spirit screen erected and a bustling crowd, someone immediately rushed over and reported to Chen Feng.
"Reporting. Up until now, it has been confirmed that the sixth and seventh squads have completely lost contact. The formation cultivators, magic cultivators, and everyone on our side, including Guardian Fang, have all disappeared as well!
"Also, the blood-colored village can no longer be detected by the formation. It has disappeared into thin air!
Along with the blood-colored fog, it has disappeared as well. Currently, there is not a single area on Mars where the blood-colored fog still exists! " As one report after another was reported to Chen Feng, Wang Baole's expression became more and more solemn. The ominous feeling in his heart intensified.
At this moment, Li Waner's voice transmission arrived rapidly. In the transmission, she informed Wang Baole that in the blood-colored fog and wind incident, the Martian military had sent out seven squads. Now, the first five squads had returned. As for the sixth and seventh squads, due to the fact that they had been sent to places further away, their scheduled return time was slightly later.
Initially, everything had been normal. These seven squads had even excavated some valuable information and materials for Mars. However, an hour ago, the sixth and seventh squads had suddenly lost contact. When the formation scanned the area, it was discovered that they had disappeared into thin air!
This incident attracted a lot of attention from Mars. In the command center where Wang Baole was located, the Governor, Deputy Governor, and the heads of the various departments had all arrived. Li Waner was among them as well.
A lot of people noticed Wang Baole, but the most they did was nod their heads. There was no time for conversation. Everyone was paying attention to the development of this incident. The Martian military had also sent out reinforcements immediately. While they were investigating the situation, the Martian Governor had also activated her authority over the formation to continue her investigation.
However, even at dusk, several hours had passed. Not a single clue had been found. No matter how they searched, even when the military's rescue cruiser arrived at the scene of the incident, they found nothing. Regardless of whether it was the blood-colored fog, the village, or the missing people, it was as if they had been erased from existence.
In the end, everyone was silent. No one said anything, but everyone already had an answer in their hearts. Those missing people … most likely had met with misfortune.
Wang Baole did not know how he returned to the academy. He was in a state of confusion, and his brain seemed to have stopped working. He sat quietly in his residence, looking at his surroundings without saying a word.
Until now, he still couldn't believe that Lin Tianhao … was gone, just like that …
Especially when Lin Tianhao had gone in place of Wang Baole. If he hadn't been trapped in the Catacombs with Li Waner that day, Lin Tianhao wouldn't have been on the list of missing people today.
From his point of view, to a certain extent, Lin Tianhao had gone through this ordeal in place of Wang Baole. As such, Wang Baole's feelings were indescribably complicated.
However, there was nothing he could do. When Lin Tianhao found out about this incident, he dropped everything and rushed over from Earth.
Amidst the silence, bitterness, and confusion, Wang Baole wasn't in the mood to cultivate. Two days passed as he waited in silence and kept inquiring.
Until now, there were still no clues about the missing people … Until late at night on the second day, the anxious and self-blaming Wang Baole took out a flask of wine and took a big gulp. His eyes were resolute. He decided to go out and look for them himself. If he didn't, he would feel guilty and uneasy.
However, just as that thought surfaced in Wang Baole's mind, suddenly, in the silence of the night, his voice transmission ring started vibrating. A familiar voice, Lin Tianhao's extremely weak voice, rang out from it!
"Save me …"
