Location: Unknown.
Meng Tian sat quietly on the bed, silently counting the time in her heart.
This was a cell without a door. The ceiling emitted a constant white light, messing up the body's sense of time.
It should be the seventh day. Meng Tian looked at the corner of the cell. She did not know what the situation was like for the others. When they were captured, they seemed to have heard that the entire team had been wiped out. The enemy's technology was higher than theirs, and they were well prepared. There was one thing that was certain, and that was that the enemy was also human.
"What to do, what to do, what to do …"
The woman muttering in the corner was Shu Yi. After seven days of imprisonment, her mind was already on the verge of collapse.
From the first day, they had not seen anyone else. Every day, their meals were sent in through a special pipeline, and no one cared about them.
Meng Tian quietly practiced her breathing technique. She had to remain calm and maintain hope. It was impossible that the Milky Way Alliance did not receive any news. Besides, since the enemy did not kill them, they should have other arrangements. Only by maintaining their physical and mental state would they have a chance.

Rumble …
Suddenly, the sound of a machine being turned on rang out. The entire cell shook, and one could clearly feel the inertia of a car. This cell was actually moving at a very fast speed.
Shu Yi, who was on the verge of collapse, jumped up and looked at Meng Tian. Could there really be some special mechanism in this cell?
Keke …
Accompanied by the sound of a machine locking, the four walls of the cell suddenly turned into countless fragments. Like an ant tide, they retreated in all directions and quickly disappeared.
This wasn't the only prison cell. More than fifty people stood in a huge open space in confusion. Sunlight, wind, and azure sky ….
This was the wilderness?
What was going on?
Was this a relief?
The air was still filled with the fragrance of pollen.
"Captain! That's great, you're fine too. "
A surprised voice rang out.
Meng Tian turned around and saw Mengha and Pavel striding over. Obviously, like her and Shu Yi, they had been locked in the same cell for the past few days.
Hearing Mengha's voice, Shu Yi's confused eyes instantly regained their luster.
"Mengha!"
"Shu Yi, are you okay too?"
"Yes, how about you? And Pavel … do you know what this place is? "
Pavel, who had always been a man of few words, shook his head. But it was obvious that he was in good shape and had not been affected by his confinement for the past few days.
At this moment, another person walked over. He looked unfamiliar and was not from the Deep Space Fleet. His clothes were also different, but it seemed to be some kind of school uniform.
"Do you know each other?"
The few people who came over had understandable wariness in their eyes.
"You are?"
"We've known each other for a long time. It seems like we're all the same. Right now, we have a very important piece of information to confirm. Is this place real or just an illusion?"
In the huge snow-white space, under the lights, there were thousands of surveillance screens. Hundreds of staff members were nervously and orderly checking the situation on each of the screens. One of the screens was a live feed of the conversation between Meng Tian and the others.
On the top floor of the space was the main control room that was suspended in the air. At this time, the originally transparent window was covered with a black screen.
There were 13 people in long robes sitting in the huge conference room. Twelve of them were in black robes, and one in the middle was in a white robe. There was also a middle-aged man standing at the door with his hands hanging down respectfully.
"Great Elder, the last batch of people of the right age has been released, including those in the Milky Way Alliance fleet," Rafael said respectfully. He was the person in charge of the Oracle Star.
"Rafael, you've handled it very well. You've minimized the losses."
"You flatter me, Elder. It's just that I'm a little worried. The agents of the Milky Way Alliance are also infiltrating through various ways. Should we completely close the channel and leave some traces? I'm worried …" Rafael said.
The expressions of the elders could not be seen. The elder in the white robe in the middle seemed to have smiled. This was only what Rafael felt.
"The Oracle Project is the core of the Saint. Everything can be sacrificed for this project. The project cannot be stopped. If it's the last resort, we will have to cut our losses. I think you will handle it well."
"I understand!" Rafael said sincerely.
The Saint had huge power and reserves, but to be honest, it was not wise to fight against the Milky Way Alliance, which represented the laws of mankind. If they were to fight head-on, the most likely outcome would be falling into the dark forces. This was what the Saint did not want to see, so they could not fight head-on. However, the people of the Milky Way Alliance were trying their best to come in. Sooner or later, they would find a flaw. However, Rafael understood after hearing what the Great Elder said.
Although the Oracle Star was very valuable, and even the Saint had spent a lot of effort on it, this sacrifice was not worth mentioning on the way to find the Son of Saint and the Oracle.
If they wanted to regain their glory and let the Saint dominate the light and lead mankind to the right path, they must find the Son of Saint and the Oracle. With the Oracle, nothing could stop them with the current power of the Saint.
This was the core!
The opportunity had already appeared. The seal was opened, and the recovery of the ancient force was a sign. The Son of Saint had basically been identified through the prophecy ability. What they needed to find now was the Oracle. The candidates for the Son of Saint would gradually distinguish the real from the fake during the trial. The collision between the real and fake Son of Saint was also a kind of fate, and finally, the Son of Saint would be reborn.
Rafael left respectfully. The elders looked at the impact on the screen. The Oracle was a kind of power, the profound meaning of the universe. They did not know what form it took. The Saint had been enduring for so many years and had a lot of influence. It was just that the constitution of the Milky Way Alliance had matured. In addition, the existence of powerful countries like Aslan and Arbiter represented order. There was no chance of winning in a head-on confrontation, but with the Oracle, these people would be vulnerable. Hence, they had to continue no matter what price they had to pay.
The trial of the Son of Saint could not be stopped. As for other aspects, they had to give in. The Saint had their own ways to interfere. As long as they did not confront them head-on, there were still many drawbacks of the Milky Way Alliance system.
"This incident may be a good thing. The way the World of Saints searched has always been too gentle. The Oracle is only born in the trial of blood and fire. This is an opportunity."
Everyone was silent for a while and nodded.
"In that case, I think there is no need to stop the Milky Way Alliance from entering. There may be elements of the Oracle among these people. If it really comes to the last step, we can just destroy the Oracle Star directly. I will think of a way for the Milky Way Alliance. The dispatch of the fleet has been delayed."
"Agreed."
"Agreed."
After the vote, the Thirteenth Elder stood up.
When disaster comes, there is no fear, no sorrow. When challenges come, there is no timidity, no retreat. Even if you die, you will be redeemed. Because he will dispel everything, the glory of God will give you eternity!
After more than ten seconds, the figure disappeared, and the conference room returned to peace.
