Exotic Battlefield: I Can Activate Dual Talents-Chapter 563 - 428: Chen Xiran, Alive!
Just after falling a dozen meters, Lu Lin had already opened the parachute pack.
When he bought the parachute pack, he carefully studied the detailed instructions.
The effective descent distance for the parachute pack is over 500 meters. If it’s less than 500 meters, with the falling speed at that time, a normal person’s body would be torn apart by the straps on the parachute pack.
The normal skydiving distance is usually from an altitude of 2000 meters or more above the ground, but right now, Lu Lin was less than 200 meters from the ground, so it was wise to use the parachute pack early.
Lu Lin switched on the flashlight in his hand, watching the constantly changing scenery around him.
In the dozen or so meters of descent just now, it was still clearly visible that the pit was constructed with piled earth. However, going further down, the walls around him showed obvious traces of artificial excavation.
This pit wasn’t formed naturally.
The strange thing was, in such a deep cave, besides the clay walls, Lu Lin didn’t notice any plants, nor did he encounter a single insect.
Shining the light downward, Lu Lin could only see that the deeper the pit went, the narrower it became. Other than that, there was nothing else.
After descending slowly for about a minute, Lu Lin finally saw what was below.
Blood Pool.
A bubbling blood pool, constantly boiling and bubbling from the bottom.
No one knew how deep this blood pool was; it was just constantly churning below.
Above the blood pool, about a meter away, was another layer of a transparent shield.
The corpses of a few monsters that had fallen from the suspended ladder just lay there silently, their bodies shriveled and withered as if all the moisture had been sucked out.
Lu Lin felt disgusted for a long time.
However, he also felt conflicted inside, soon he would be standing on that light shield; could it be that he too would have his blood drained by the blood pool?
With a thought, Lu Lin took a bed out of the storage ring, timed it right, and threw the big bed onto the light shield, then stepped stably onto the bed.
"Gulp."
"Gulp."
As Lu Lin landed, the light shield bounced twice as if it were elastic, then settled down.
But it was at this close distance that he could hear the faint "gulping" sound from the blood pool, sounding somewhat like a human heartbeat, and somewhat like the sound of swallowing.
This light shield and the blood pool both seemed very bizarre.
Looking around, apart from the light shield and the blood pool, Lu Lin didn’t notice any other anomalies and thought about leaving as soon as possible.
In the earlier battle with Mother Bai Na, it seemed like he had the upper hand, but only Lu Lin knew how dangerous it really was.
At first, Lu Lin even carried Chen Xiran’s body and ran for a long time.
Thinking back now, Lu Lin felt a chill down his spine.
Although he was powerful, facing such bizarre occurrences made him understandably uneasy.
In his storage ring, Lu Lin had quite a few tools for climbing, but he only picked two chisels. Given his current strength, he could have climbed up without chisels, but he was worried that there might be something strange about the pit’s surroundings as well.
A thief can be relentless, but how can one guard against a thief constantly?
"Dong."
Lu Lin drove the chisel forcefully into the pit wall, but who would have thought the pit wall was so loose?
With just a bit of force, dirt from the pit wall came tumbling down.
Covering Lu Lin in dust.
Lu Lin put away the chisel and grabbed a protruding rock with his hand again, but the moment he applied a little force, the rock was pulled out from the soil layer.
Climbing out this way seemed impossible.
Just as he was pondering, Lu Lin had a brilliant idea.
Now that he was far from the pyramid’s influence above, the no-fly and teleportation-blocking formations within the pyramid should have been deactivated. Didn’t that mean he could simply fly up?
Lu Lin cursed himself for being thick-headed and quickly tried it out. Sure enough, it worked.
Glancing at the big bed used as a stepping stone and the parachute, Lu Lin soared upwards.
The ascent didn’t present any issues.
Not only that, after flying out of the deep pit, Lu Lin didn’t encounter the no-fly formation’s influence.
It could be that Bai Na’s death caused all the Star Arrays within the pyramid to fail.
Or perhaps Bai Na, in dealing with Lu Lin’s broken knife, absorbed and used up all the Star Power reserves within the pyramid.
Either way, the deactivation of the Star Arrays was a good thing for Lu Lin.
Since there was no reason to stay longer, Lu Lin didn’t hesitate and chose the nearest wooden door to leave.
Just as Lu Lin’s hand touched the wooden door, his personal terminal suddenly rang.
The deactivation of the Star Power Array within the pyramid had apparently unblocked the use of personal terminals too.
But when Lu Lin saw who was calling, he was instantly scared out of his wits.
How could it be?
The incoming call was from Chen Xiran.
But moments ago, Bai Na, who was possessing Chen Xiran, had been killed by Lu Lin and left this world. How could Chen Xiran be calling?
Lu Lin steadied himself and clicked to answer.
"Captain, save me."
"Captain, save me."
The voice was exactly the same as before, giving Lu Lin goosebumps all over.
Chen Xiran was already dead.
How could her personal terminal still work?
The personal terminal injected into every federal citizen’s body is actually a micro-biological computer.
It has various magical effects, can receive and transmit signals, can synchronize human vision and taste, and can store information in the human brain.
Of course, this biological computer is harmless to the human body, and theoretically, there are no backdoors. There’s no need to worry about someone controlling your body once you’ve used the personal terminal.
Lu Lin already knew about the existence of personal terminals when he was promoted to be a Titled King.
Although this thing has various magical uses, it has one problem, which is that it cannot be recycled.
These personal terminals can ultimately be seen as tiny lives tied to human life. If the owner dies, then their personal terminal will also die.
Unless there is a special situation where the federation needs to analyze what the person encountered before their death, they will find the remnants of the personal terminal to recover some of the data.
And now.
Chen Xiran is clearly already dead, so her personal terminal should also be completely dead and useless. Why is it still able to call Lu Lin?
Lu Lin’s mind raced with thoughts, and he calmed down for a moment before saying, "Chen Xiran, where are you now?"
"I don’t know, I don’t know, team leader."
"There’s blood everywhere, and just now, my whole body was soaked in a blood pool. I’ll send you my location. Please, come rescue me, I’m begging you."
Chen Xiran’s voice, tinged with sobs, sounded. Lu Lin analyzed it. From the voice and everything else, it was undoubtedly Chen Xiran herself on the other side.
"Okay, send me your location."
Lu Lin agreed, and then saw the location message sent by Chen Xiran.
It was clearly in a hotel in Nan Fei.
If it were in South Magnesium, it would be better, but in Nan Fei?
Even if Lu Lin had wings, he might not be able to reach quickly.
"Chen Xiran, calm down. Look at your location, you are now in a hotel in Nan Fei. Directly call the Detective Department’s phone to report, let them protect the site after arriving. I will now contact the Star Investigation Office in the south of Nan Fei. Don’t worry, you are safe, you are safe."
After Lu Lin repeated "you are safe" twice, it seemed to have calmed Chen Xiran somewhat.
"Okay, team leader, please come over as soon as you can. I’m... I’m scared."
Chen Xiran was still essentially the same girl who didn’t dare to act when she saw Dark Silk Clan people, even though she became braver under Lu Lin’s lead; after all, it was just her disguise.
When truly faced with danger, she reverted to her original nature.
"Alright, rest assured, I have a few things at hand, at most in one day, I will come to Nan Fei to find you."
After Lu Lin finished speaking, he hung up the phone amidst Chen Xiran’s reluctant emotions.
He quickly contacted that director of the Star Investigation Office he met in Egypt, not surnamed Luo, but Trafalgar.
This person had said that in the entire Flying Continent, he was the largest officer of the Star Investigation Office here.
His office locations were both in Egypt and Nan Fei.
Lu Lin briefly explained what had happened, asking him to quickly lead a team to rescue Chen Xiran, and specifically reminded him to ensure the hotel’s protection where Chen Xiran was located.
Trafalgar, following Lu Lin’s instructions, quickly took a plane to deal with this matter. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
At the same time, the entire force of the Star Investigation Office in the Flying Continent was set in motion.
Messages and intelligence were being continuously reported and summarized upwards.
In less than 2 minutes, Chen Xiran had been rescued by local Detective Department personnel in Nan Fei, and the process had not caused any disturbances.
However, upon seeing the hellish scene in the room, even some experienced personnel in the Detective Department couldn’t help but want to vomit.
It was so brutal that they couldn’t imagine how a girl like Chen Xiran managed to stay in the room for 48 hours.
Hearing the report about Chen Xiran, Lu Lin’s heart settled down.
At this time, he had just walked out of the pyramid, and outside, the Star Power Array originally used to cover the pyramid had disappeared. This place was discovered by the federation’s surveillance satellites, and around there were teams of strong persons and soldiers, armed and ready.
Not knowing the origins of this pyramid, they dared not act recklessly.
Especially in South Magnesium, where the Bai Na Goddess Sect was active.
While they were all on high alert, awaiting orders from their superiors, a person walked out from the main entrance of the pyramid.
This person was covered in blood and grime, with a white T-shirt stained with horrifying blood marks, and a peculiar blood-red mass on the back.
However, he had a Yazhou person’s face, looking somewhat handsome.
"Please stop, state your identity."
A burly, strong martial artist stood out, holding a loudspeaker, shouting at Lu Lin.
Lu Lin stopped and smiled at the other party.
A low-level martial artist with only third-level strength, with red curly hair, fat and broad-waisted, apparently someone who has long been in a high position.
Yet facing the strange event of the sudden appearance of the pyramid, he personally appeared.
Lu Lin nodded.
The current federation is like this, you always feel something’s wrong here, something’s lacking there, some even say martial artists are treated too well, that the Exotic Battlefield isn’t all that dangerous.
It’s suggested that ordinary people should have the same status as martial artists.
But such things aren’t apparent in usual times, they become clear at crucial moments.
The ones who charge first are martial artists.
This fat uncle who looks like his brain is full of thinking meat, probably holds a high position in the local city capital, but in facing this event, he must charge first.
Whether it’s a requirement of the federation or his own awareness, it doesn’t matter.
The federation has always judged by actions, not intentions. As long as your actions benefit the public and the federation, it’s good.
Lu Lin stood there, raising his hands.
He didn’t want to have any conflict with the people from the Detective Department now.
"Everyone, I am Lu Lin, group leader of the Nineteenth Group, Chongnuo City branch of the Federal Star Adjustment Office. I want to see your highest officer."
"Also, this place is quite dangerous, martial artists below the third level should not enter."
