Chapter 1 What is that?
The round cake-shaped all-weather soul-guided reconnaissance plane was slowly advancing across the sea. In the distance, you could already see the white snow lines.
"Director, you are about to arrive in the extreme north." A crisp voice sounded, and Nan Cheng, wearing a white military uniform, reported to Lan Xiao, who was sitting in the position of the deputy captain.
They are a scientific expedition team from the Ancient Soul Beast Research Institute, a subsidiary of the Tiandou Branch of the Douluo Federal Academy of Sciences. Since the Douluo Federation completed its first space journey about nine thousand years ago, humans have begun to explore space continuously. Continuous exploration and continuous discovery have allowed humans to gain more and more knowledge of the vastness of the universe.
With the increase in population and some other problems, humans began to try interstellar immigration. After thousands of years of unremitting efforts, they finally completed the immigration of the first planet more than a thousand years ago. Over the past thousand years, humans have completed the immigration plan for seven planets and developed it.
Since the soul beast almost brought about a disaster of destruction ten thousand years ago, Mo Lan, the speaker of the Douluo Federation, who is known as the Mother of Peace, announced that humans and soul beasts live in peace. All killings of soul beasts are forbidden.
When the Federation was colonizing the third planet, it gave the planet to the soul beast. Leading by the contemporary king of digital soul beasts, it migrated from the small plane of Ten Thousand Beasts. The soul beast finally had its own home.
The seventh planet afterwards was given to the soul beast. With two planets of their own, the soul beast has been fully recuperated for thousands of years, and the hatred with humans has been completely resolved. Humans are working in a comprehensive manner with soul beasts in a new way. For tens of thousands of years, from the soul beasts occupying the entire Douluo Star human struggle to survive, to the human invention of soul guides, and began to compress the living space of soul beasts, and then to the King of Soul Beasts who woke up ten thousand years ago, leading the remaining soul beasts to retaliate against humans. Now, humans and soul beasts coexist peacefully. The changes in the times have finally brought humans and soul beasts closely related to the soul master profession into a period of peaceful development.
The scientific expedition team led by Lan Xiao came to the far north to explore and see if there were any remaining ice and snow-like soul beasts or soul beast relics left here, so as to conduct research on ancient soul beasts.
The extreme north was once known as the last pure land of Douluo Continent. The harsh environment here prevented some remaining soul beasts from being harmed by humans. Later, they also migrated, but the soul beast world here was a self-organized, and it took a lot of effort to make most soul beasts recognize the immigration. But some still chose to stay or hide.
"Okay." Lan Xiao had the rank of major on her shoulders and looked handsome. He was 31 years old this year and graduated from the Douluo Federal National Academy of Sciences and Technology, focusing on soul beast research. All scientific research institutions were awarded military ranks and were managed by the federal government.
While agreeing, his eyes unconsciously fell on the beautiful curve under Nancheng's military uniform. In addition to being colleagues, they were also a couple. The beautiful Nancheng was just around the corner shortly after entering the research institute, and the director of the school was close to the water. The two had a good relationship and were planning to get married when they went back to the scientific examination.
Nan Cheng glared at him and turned his head away. His pretty appearance made Lan Xiao smile knowingly.
"After entering the extreme north, immediately turn on the life detector. The intensity of the exploration is increased to the level of the soul beast for ten years." Lan Xiao ordered.
"Yes." Nan Cheng was specifically responsible for the detection and immediately responded in an official manner.
The extreme north has been a bitter and cold place since ancient times, and almost no plants can survive here. When there were soul beasts in the past, they were mainly cold-resistant large soul beasts. There are also some special soul beasts similar to the Ice Bi Scorpion and the Snow Girl.
Soon, the all-weather soul-guided reconnaissance plane entered the extreme north and flew towards the inner circle. A soft white halo surrounded the reconnaissance plane, isolating the outside world from the bitter cold.
In the center of the flat aircraft's lower abdomen, a light green light scattered. When the light falls on the ground, it forms a green aperture that can cover one square kilometer. Anyone with a life intensity exceeding ten years of soul beast level will be detected. This is the latest life detector. It is the finest enough to penetrate a hundred meters underground.
The reconnaissance planes extend the coastline while scanning. Although the detection range of the life detector is large, the far north is very vast. It takes a long time to scan the whole or even just explore part of it.
"Okay, since I'm here, I've set up the detection program and everyone will take a break. I hope I can find something this time." Lan Xiao stretched out his body and said lazily. There was always a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
Looking at his appearance, Nan Cheng curled his lips. This guy always seemed to be like this, as if he was careless about anything, but he could do everything well. When he was in school, he didn't look at how hard he worked and became a top student. After work, he was easily admitted to the institute. He was admitted with him, but now he is still a lieutenant, but he has been promoted twice. You know, it is extremely difficult to promote military ranks. Without war, it is possible to gradually become a school-level officer, at least over forty years old. But this guy is only thirty years old this year.
I really don’t accept it. I obviously work harder than him! Even when I was chasing myself, I seemed to be just confused and surrendered under his harmless smile. Humph!
Just as I was thinking, there was a shadow in front of me covering the light. I rubbed her head with a big hand, and the familiar voice rang in my ears, "Okay, I'll find out which instrument will automatically call the police. Let's have dinner with me."
If someone else had become a couple with colleagues in such an important department, he would definitely be cautious in his words and actions, but Lan Xiao had no such consciousness at all and was so openly close to Nan Cheng. Nan Cheng reminded him many times, but he still remained the same, saying: I can't help it!
"Yes." Nan Cheng stood up, and then realized that he could easily listen to his words again. It's so damn!
He looked up and wanted to glare at him, but Lan Xiao's charming smile came. His eyes were kept holding his hands and walked towards the spaceship's restaurant. The voice of this guy came from his ears, "I just like your stupid look."
Who is stupid to say? Who is talking about? Just as she was thinking about whether to have an attack, suddenly, a series of rapid "Didi" sounds attracted everyone's attention.
Nan Cheng almost subconsciously rushed back to his position and quickly performed a series of operations. The screen in front of her was rapidly enlarged, so that a circle of strong halos was continuously released outward in a diffuse shape.
Lan Xiao followed closely behind and came to her side, looking at the screen, and her face became solemn.
"All units pay attention, all units pay attention. There may be powerful living organisms, the reconnaissance aircraft rises to three thousand meters, and the life detector is concentrated to detect. The protective cover is temporarily opened to the maximum strength, and the intercepting weapon is ready." He made a series of orders without hesitation, and the lazy look on his face disappeared, replaced by solemnity.
The halo spreading on the screen was red, which he knew very well. Only soul beasts at the level of 100,000 years could release such powerful life energy.
"Using reconnaissance satellites for detailed observation." Lan Xiao patted Nan Cheng's shoulder.
"Yes." Nan Cheng operated his hands on the operating table in front of him like a butterfly. Soon, the satellite was connected and the high-definition reconnaissance satellite locked the target under her guidance.
Lan Xiao stood up straight and turned to the main screen of the reconnaissance plane. On the main screen, a picture was being quickly enlarged.
At the beginning, it was just a white piece, and soon the snow could be seen clearly. Then, there was a valley surrounded by ice and snow.
It is said to be a valley, but it is actually more like a crack. The crack quickly amplifies during the high-definition detection of reconnaissance satellites, and reaches the depths of the valley next to a broken rock.
The huge life energy came from here. When the satellite was positioned at that point, Lan Xiao and Nan Cheng clearly saw that under the snow, there was a faint golden halo flashing.
"Amplify a little more." Lan Xiao said in a deep voice.
The picture continued to enlarge a little, and this time I saw it more clearly. The snow surface was not only gold, but also silver. The two colors were slowly flashing alternately.
Nan Cheng turned his head and looked at him and said softly: "What is that?"
