Chapter 1733 Timely Response

This huge bad news spread throughout the entire empire's top leaders in an instant.

For the awakeners of the empire, the Skyhook Maze is far more than just a holy place.

There are a lot of opportunities in the maze, not to mention the supernatural rice, which is the key material for the awakeners to improve their cultivation.

The empire also has a small number of supernatural rice planting test fields outside the maze, but the output of the maze is the bulk.

In addition to the relevant output, this is also an important base for various cultivation experiments.

The most important thing is that the mystery of the maze is far from being fully developed, which is a huge treasure.

The top leaders of the empire even unanimously believe that the maze is the greatest hope and reliance of the awakeners to catch up with the divine text system!

If the alliance has the Tianwen project, the federation once had the blessing of Wuxuan Mighty, and the empire relied on the Skyhook Maze!

This time, it was like the sky fell.

The empire sent a considerable number of starships to search for the disappeared maze in the vast space.

But it is obvious that it is much more difficult to find the maze that so many troops have not guarded than to find a needle in a haystack.

Not to mention the later maze, which was only the size of a fist, how to find it?

The good thing is that when the maze left, no one was hurt.

Not to mention the people outside the maze, even the people inside the maze were only repelled out, and the worst was a little scratch.

In other words, if the one controlling the maze is an intelligent life form, it will not easily hurt people.

While the government sent out starships to search, they were thinking: If there is a mastermind behind this, who is the most likely person?

There is no doubt that the first thing that flashed in the minds of more than half of the senior officials was the civilian organization with the standard division-level ship!

First of all, among the entire empire, Digital Phantom is the first to bear the brunt of the possibility of being able to do this.

The attainments of this team in the divine text system exceed the sum of all the attainments of other teams in the empire!

Secondly... Actually, there is no need for the second, just this point is enough!

Among the entire empire, only your family may be able to do it, and other families have no possibility at all, so what are you considering?

Fortunately, the people in power in the empire were not so foolish that they insisted that it was them who did it.

The military near the Dawn Base came to them as soon as possible.

They did not say anything like doubt, but asked them to help find the missing maze, and the price was negotiable.

At the same time, they did not forget to say: If you really can't find it, please tell us the clues you found.

And even if there are only clues, the government will let Digital Phantom set the price.

——No matter who did it, you must help with this matter anyway.

Intentionally or unintentionally, the military also said that the government wanted to know why you suddenly withdrew from the point in the abandoned mine before?

They almost wrote the word "doubt" on their faces, but their attitude was still surprisingly polite.

Jia Shuiqing and others were also quite surprised when they heard it. It was not that the cave was transformed successfully by accident, but... why did it lose contact?

Fortunately, most of the main forces are now at the base, so they are not afraid of the military turning against them.

Jia Shuiqing said that there was no need to explain to you the affairs we arranged internally.

As for assisting in the investigation... you guys check first, we need to discuss internally first to see if we should take action.

There is no doubt that the military was not satisfied with this answer. For such a big thing, if it was another team, we would have directly requisitioned it.

However, they really couldn't force it, just said that you guys should discuss it faster, and we need to report it as soon as possible.

While others were discussing, Jia Shuiqing teleported directly over and informed the boss of the situation.

Although the incident happened suddenly, the military was very efficient, and Digital Phantom was notified at the first time.

From the disappearance of the cave to now, it has been less than two days in total.

After listening to it, Qu Jianlei frowned and said thoughtfully, "No wonder... it asked for so many energy blocks before!"

At that time, he thought that the cave conversion did require such a large amount of energy, after all, it was equivalent to rebirth.

But now it seems that the spirit of the weapon may have had other ideas for a long time, so it specially stored a batch of energy.

Then he looked at the big snake, "Is it common in the world of immortal cultivation for weapon spirits to have independent thoughts?"

"It's hard to say," Jiao Daoren was a little helpless, "Weapon spirits are different from each other, and the difference is greater than that between people."

Yi He added, "But I know this guy a little bit, he is really arrogant."

The big snake also nodded, "Maybe at that time, it wanted you to refine it, but after its strength increased... it's hard to say."

Jing Yuexin was thinking about something else, "Could it be... it just couldn't contact us for a while?"

"This possibility is very small," Yi He said lightly, "What can my soul do, it can't do?"

Jing Yuexin's face showed a strange look, "That is to say... we were deceived by a weapon spirit?"

As soon as this was said, everyone was silent. Everyone present was a Nascent Soul, how could they be deceived like this?

And the deceiver was of low status and a non-human existence - isn't a weapon spirit a servant of a high-level cultivator?

After a long while, Qu Jianlei sighed, "Forget it, it's a fight, it's just a loss of money."

Being cheated is definitely not a good feeling, but... that's it, the team just invested a huge amount of energy blocks.

If money can solve a problem, it is not a problem, even if this amount of funds is quite large, which once stretched the team for a long time.

After all, the weapon spirit comes from the world of immortality. As long as he does not harm himself, he will not be angry.

Seriously, I can take this opportunity to cut off the cause and effect, which is not bad.

But then, Yi He came up with another idea, "Maybe it wants to test you to see if you are qualified to be the master?"

This logic still exists objectively. In the world of immortal cultivation, there are many examples of weapon spirits refusing to be refined by someone.

In similar incidents, wishful thinking is absolutely unacceptable unless you have the strength to crush and convince others with force!

Otherwise, it is better to go in both directions. It is best for the weapon spirit and the master to be mutually consensual.

"Test? Haha" Qu Jianlei smiled disdainfully, "It wants to test me, do I have to cooperate?"

"Now it can be regarded as asking for mercy, so I will not cooperate. I will consider this possibility when I am in the mood."

Although Qi Ling is arrogant, why doesn't Mr. Qu have his own pride?

Since we are destined but not separated, it’s okay to let it go. That’s the saying - extreme strength will be humiliating, and deep love will not last long.

Hearing this, Xiangxue couldn't help but suggest, "How about... occupy its position?"

"Don't!" Several Nascent Souls objected simultaneously.

Taoist Jiao said seriously, "Don't think it's just a cave, it involves the cause and effect of out-of-body power!"

"Previously, due to the cause and effect of Lord Wu Xuan, the boss's calculations were abnormal, which resulted in him being so seriously injured."

"I don't support it anyway," Jing Yuexin said without hesitation,

"I feel like it might be safer if you don't make any calculations and act based on instinct!"

Qu Jianlei had no intention of calculating, but looked at Jia Shuiqing, "Have you made arrangements for that dark red star?"

The dark red star is the incomplete spiritual treasure and the birthplace of high imitation.

Qi Ling had been there before and believed that swallowing this star would give it a great improvement.

But the conditions were not met at that time, so everyone agreed to wait until the cave was out of trouble and then come here to absorb it.

For this reason, Qu Jianlei even took away the ignorant high imitation and cut off its connection with the place of birth.

For high imitation, this is a cruel thing, but Qu Jianlei will not take care of its emotions.

He was able to take away this ignorant life form instead of obliterating it, which was already considered to be particular.

But now it seems that the original decision was a bit ironic.

The Mifu Weapon Spirit that he trusted directly tricked him, took the money and ran away.

And the high-end imitation that he was about to abandon became half the butler of the cave, and he even dared to teach Feng Wangwu a lesson.

It's a bit ignorant, can't defeat the traitor, and can't control the cave, but that's just because its strength is too weak.

Don't be afraid if your strength is a little bit low. Just think of ways to improve. As long as your attitude is correct enough, your shortcomings can be cultivated slowly.

When Mrs. Jia heard his question, she raised her eyebrows and said, "Dogan has been teleported there!"

The dark red star was originally the secret place for Duogan's cultivation, and no one was more impressed than her.

When she learned that Sky Hook Mi Mansion was missing, her first reaction was - "We can't let it swallow the star!"

No matter what thoughts and difficulties the weapon spirit has, as long as it is not communicated well with the team, the ownership of the star has nothing to do with the weapon spirit.

Dogan already understood that the stars originally contained great terror. She was lucky enough not to trigger the crisis.

And later, she also got enough opportunities from the out-of-body power, and she was lucky enough to successfully overcome the disaster.

Now she no longer regards the stars as personal belongings - this is the team's wealth, and she can't help but know the good and bad.

But as the former owner of the star, she has different feelings about it and is very sensitive to this matter.

So she made the decision immediately: protect the star!

Qu Jianlei nodded after hearing this, "The response was quite timely."

To be honest, having a group of smart and capable teammates really makes him worry-free. Before he made a decision, his teammates had already reacted.

However, he was still a little unsure, "If the weapon spirit really comes looking for it, how will Dogan plan to deal with it?"

Duogan has survived the thunder catastrophe. Not only has his strength and lifespan been greatly increased, but his actions will not be counterattacked by the world.

But it was still a bit reluctant for her to fight against a Nascent Soul-level weapon spirit.

That weapon spirit has been in the Nascent Soul for who knows how many years, and it doesn’t know how many spells it has seen!

The most important thing is that there is a huge cave behind that guy, so there is basically no need to consider the problem of spiritual energy exhaustion.

Qu Jianlei has a considerable say in this!
