This was a hastily formed temporary joint exploration team, "Tian Xuan Team."
The team was mainly made up of members from Phecda and Mysterium. They were all the best of the best but they would not put all their eggs in one basket. Although the team was prepared to negotiate peacefully, they still had to be prepared for the most dangerous situation. No one could let their guard down.
On Phecda's side, Gu Jun, Peacock, Malachite and of course Wu Shiyu all had experience at Dreamlands. Peacock and Malachite were practically natives.
Elites like Lou Xiaoning and Deng Ximei were stationed at Phecda World.
On Mysterium's side, there was Yu Chi and Feng Peiqian.
There was also Bell Grant from FBM, Ksenia Linapova from Rossiya and Reince Nelson from England. On Mysterium's side, there was Weiler Felton, Burchet Ivanovich and Lotti Mackenzie.
There were 12 people in total, 7 males and 5 females.
Phecda and Mysterium had completed the exchange of the Mental Pillar Technique and the Nine Mysterium Arts so Yu Chi's team could finally build the mental pillar.
Among the 12 members of Tian Xuan Team, there were at least 5 pillars. There were 3 who could build 6 pillars, they were Gu Jun, Wu Shiyu and Yu Chi.
Everyone's first pillar of support was either family, lover, or someone important to them. The second pillar was this two-world team. Although it was temporarily formed, it represented a big step forward for the human civilizations of the two worlds. The third pillar was a personal emotion, idea, wish, and so on.
For example, Yu Chi's third pillar was his wish to one day see the relics unearthed from Emperor Qin's tomb; Feng Peiqian's was her dream to hold a wedding with her lover; Wu Shiyu's was the sofa.
As for the other pillars, they decided not to construct them for the time being.
Furthermore, the three newly built pillars still needed to be strengthened or else they would be too fragile.
Gu Jun also built 3 pillars. His third pillar was the moment of relief when he successfully treated a patient. Although he had left the clinic for a period of time due to various matters, he did not forget that he was a clinician. The gratification of every successful surgery was enough to support him.
Now, he had Wu Shiyu and Yu Chi as his first pillar of support.
Yu Chi realized with regret that he and Gu Jun could not form a telepathic link and it did not seem to benefit him.
However, he had not given up yet. He was still pondering what was so special about the combination of Gu Jun and Wu Shiyu. Apart from their intimate relationship and a lot of training, what else was there? Is there anything in them that can be replicated? Was it something that he and Gu Jun lacked? Was it because Gu Jun did not regard him as the first pillar of support?
"Captain, how can you compare to Shi Yu?" Feng Peiqian said helplessly. "He has that kind of relationship with Captain Gu."
"But Captain Gu and I have been through life and death together …" Yu Chi felt like he was not that bad.
However, the team's miraculous effect was revealed. Although the members of the Mysterious Sky Team weren't very familiar with each other, especially with the separation between the two worlds, they felt like old friends at first sight when they were gathered together. The natural unfamiliarity, distance, and suspicion between people were all decreasing.
Furthermore, their first attempt at forming the Ancient Seal Web was a smooth process.
If this was the case when the team was first formed, it would only get better in the future.
They did not have much time. They built the mental pillar and rested for the night. The next morning, Lucky dragged his rotund body to indicate that it was time to depart. He would not be able to afford to be late if they missed the timing.
Since they could not bring the items into Dreamlands, the Tian Xuan team departed with light equipment. They brought some weapons for experimentation but most of them were medical supplies. Wu Siyu also brought gifts like catnip and cat toys. The mission this time was to negotiate with the cats, how were they supposed to negotiate without these gifts?
This time, the channel to Dreamlands appeared in a small poplar forest at the outskirts of Mo Bei City. It was just a small mud hole next to a tree. If not for the Zoogs, they would not have been discovered.
Now, this channel was heavily guarded by Phecda members.
Every exploration mission was dangerous. Before they departed, they bid farewell to their family and friends. Tong Ye warned Gu Jun's group to be careful. Cai Zixuan even added a poem, "I advise you to drink a cup of wine, to leave Yangguan without an old friend."
Actually, this was not entirely true because the Great Atal was an old friend.
If there was a chance, Cai Zixuan, Lou Xiaoning and the rest would like to get to know this Atal who was always full of prophecy.
When they walked through the channel, Yu Chi, Feng Peiqian and Grant Bell were shocked by the colorful lights in the channel. They followed closely behind Gu Jun while Gu Jun followed behind Lucky.
Lucky did not lead the wrong way. Soon, they burst out from the light. A gush of fresh air greeted them and they could hear the soft rustling of the forest.
Gu Jun studied the lush forest around him. He recognized this was the Enchanted Forest.
Wu Shiyu noticed there were many small shadows lurking among the trees, they were all Zoogs.
"The guns are really gone." Yu Chi noticed the weapons that the team had brought with them as a test run had all disappeared. None of them had escaped.
"This way, this way." Lucky continued to lead the way. "We've prepared the clothes for you."
Their clothes were still there but they would be gone in less than half a day. Thankfully, the Zoogs were there to welcome them. Thus, the team split into two teams and each team followed a Zoog. If anything went wrong, Gu Jun and Wu Shiyu would notify each other mentally, that was the benefit of telepathy.
However, the Zoogs did not play any tricks this time. They really did change into Ulthar style linen clothes.
Gu Jun noticed the Zoogs' intention. There was a claw logo made from Zoog hair on the chest area of the clothes. It was very eye-catching.
The 12 regrouped in the forest. One of the Zoogs patted his shoulder with dissatisfaction. "So few people, how is that enough …"
Gu Jun mentioned that they wanted to go to Ulthar to scout out the military situation but it was still a negotiation. The evil Zoog slapped the ground angrily. "No! We can't allow you to expose our plan! We only need you to do one thing, go to the Ulthar Temple to wreak havoc and lure all the cats there. Then we … Hehe. "
The evil Zoog chuckled wickedly. The other Zoogs chuckled but Lucky was still cowering.
Gu Jun understood this was either a ploy to lure the enemy away or to gather the enemy together to destroy them …
Before Yu Chi and the rest could say anything, a long meow echoed through the forest.
Everyone turned to the source of the meow. All the Zoogs, including the evil Zoog, were stunned. A large black cat was squatting on top of a tree.
The pair of cat eyes stared at the ground. It was unclear how much it had heard.
In Dreamlands, the speaker could understand the language but the black cat asked, "What is it that smells so good?"
"Hmm." Wu Shiyu waved the green catnip in his hand. "This?"
