Backbite!

Just as Lu Xuan was immersed in the huge information recorded in the Civilization Monument, a piercing prompt suddenly came from the Caro base.

In the next second, the members of the team that had gone out to track the crashed aircraft at that time had all appeared in the distance as far as the eye could see.

And behind this group of returning aircraft, a nearly scrapped alien aircraft was dragged to the Carlo base.

"Looks like the mission is going well, right?"

Slightly surprised, he looked at the team members who had successfully returned home.

Lu Xuan was as if he had seen some incredible scene.

In fact, as early as when Captain Hurricane took the initiative to apply to take the team members to the "Valley of the Wang Family", Lu Xuan had already prepared that they might not be able to return.

After all, this is the world of Tiga, and wherever this supernatural phenomenon is involved, if there is no moth, it is really a moth.

"They're not you and Da Gu ......"

At this time, the sound of Zhizi complaining appeared in Lu Xuan's ears in time.

According to Tomoko's database statistics, it is normal to perform this kind of task without a moth.

On the contrary, Lu Xuan and Da Gu were able to make a moth every time.

The kind of physique that can cause trouble when nothing happens is an abnormal situation.

"Well, I'm just feeling emotional."

Touching his chin a little embarrassed, Lu Xuan expressed a noncommittal attitude towards this.

As Zhizi's performance becomes more and more human, Lu Xuan sometimes forgets that the other party's essence is actually an evolving artificial intelligence.

"Wait, something doesn't seem right?"

His eyes suddenly focused on the Caro airship that was the first to return, and Lu Xuan's face instantly became serious.

"Tomoko, help me check the team's previous communication history......"

A moment later, in the central hall of the Carlo base.

The Natan's craft had been dragged into the maintenance garage, and an exotic coffin was placed in the center of the hall.

And around this coffin, seven or eight high-ranking people of the Carlo base looked at the coffin with sad faces.

"What is this?"

Raising his eyebrows slightly, Lu Xuan turned his head and asked in a low voice to John.

"I don't know, I'll have to ask Captain Wind about this."

Rubbing his head with a headache, John, who had not been here long earlier than Lu Xuan, sighed helplessly.

For John, who has always sought stability, any unnecessary trouble is avoidable.

However, Captain Tempest apparently has a different opinion.

The crashed flying machine is just that, and this coffin obviously belongs to the "Valley of the Royal Family".

The wind brought it back, and in John's eyes, he was asking for trouble.

"This is the ...... found in the place where the spaceman crashed"

There was also a hint of helplessness in his eyes, and Hurricane clearly knew John's displeasure with him.

The wind is just a little arrogant, and it's not really not afraid of heaven and earth.

However, the current situation is different from the past, and the wind is no longer the wind of the past.

"That cosmic man crashed into the core of the 'Valley of the Kings'?"

Faced with John's distrustful question, the wind suddenly became a little weaker.

"This ...... Not really. ”

There was a slight pause in his tone, and Blast's face squirmed slightly stiffly, trying to show the same incomprehensible look.

"In fact, that cosmic person didn't even approach the 'Valley of the Royal Family', it just crashed near the entrance to the 'Valley of the Royal Family'."

Rolling his eyes again, John finally asked a rhetorical question this time without politeness.

"Then you mean that the coffin escaped from the grave on its own?"

"And by coincidence, it happened to run to the place where the spacecraft crashed?"

The two-sentence question was speechless, but John continued to ask.

"If I'm not mistaken, the Valley of the Kings seems to be the remains of a temple, right?"

"Even if the coffin is really buried inside, it should be in the core of the 'Valley of the Royal Family'......"

Although John didn't say it explicitly, the meaning of his words was already obvious—he obviously didn't believe that the coffin had escaped on his own.

"Actually, it's really possible that it ran out on its own."

Seeing this situation, the vice-captain Nagashi, who had been acting as an "invisible man" next to him, opened his mouth to explain.

And as soon as he said this, John, Lu Xuan, and even Yu Feng and others all turned their eyes to this man.

"While moving the coffin, I noticed a not-so-obvious drag mark underneath the observation."

"That trail stretched from the entrance to the Valley of the Kings to the ruins of the great temple."

The presence of drag marks means that the coffin did not appear out of thin air.

"And there's another suspicion, that is, we haven't found the cosmic man who invaded Earth."

"There were no bodies in the crashed spacecraft."

"It was as if the cosmic man had disappeared out of thin air, and he had never revealed his true appearance."

He didn't go any further, but everyone present had already understood the meaning of Nagagishi's words.

"What's the matter...... Ran out of the 'Valley of the King's Family'! ”

Lu Xuan took the initiative to break the silence and said the guess that everyone was unwilling to say.

"It should have been the falling flying machine that woke up something from the Valley of the Kings, and then that thing ran out with a coffin."

Listening to these terrifying words, Okabe, the other vice-leader of the Wind Squad, couldn't help but ask that crucial question.

"What about the spaceman in the spacecraft?"

"Even if it is killed by that thing, there should be a corpse left!?"

Hearing Okabe's question, Lu Xuan echoed his words, but the expression on his face seemed a little meaningful.

"Yes! Where's the spaceman in the spacecraft? ”

"Encountering an unknown existence, but not dying, where do you think that cosmic man is now?"

When he said this, Lu Xuan deliberately turned his face sideways, hiding the expression on his face in the shadows.

“……”

As if he heard the meaning of Lu Xuan's words, Captain Wind's pupils suddenly constricted.

But before he could speak, John, who had also reacted, had already screamed.

"Oops! You shouldn't have brought that craft back to base! ”

"No, it's not just the flying machine, you shouldn't even bring this coffin back!"

The undisguised horror in his words made everyone else present realize the seriousness of the problem.

"That thing and the cosmic man...... Sneaked into the Carlo base!? ”
