Meng Yao narrowed his eyes, touched his chin and said, "In that case, why don't I take you to see the truth."

He looked around and found the defense team's land combat vehicle not far from the restaurant.

He immediately took the keys from several people and asked Lopus, who had recovered, to drag Long and others into the car.

Seeing Meng Yao's actions, George and Hayato couldn't help but shout, "What are you doing? I'm warning you, the car is connected to the base's system at all times."

"If you start driving, we will be on your radar at any time."

Meng Yao just smiled and said, "That's the best. It's a good opportunity for all of you to witness it, and it will also help clear me of my status as a wanted criminal."

This thing has really bothered Meng Yao for the past two days.

After thinking about it, Meng Yao finally decided to untie Long.

He had already seen that Long's will had begun to waver, and now he had some trust in what he said.

And having one more person would also help with one's actions.

Looking at the untied Long, George shouted from the back seat of the car: "Long! What are you doing? Do you really believe what he said?"

Long was just speechless. After a long while, he sighed and said softly, "George, calm down."

"If he really is the enemy, why would he bother with this?"

Hayato actually spoke at this time: "That's right, George, let's see."

George shook his hair, glanced at everyone in the car, snorted and then stopped talking.

After the carriage became quiet, Meng Yao suddenly heard someone knocking on the window.

He turned around and saw that it was Nan Xizi.

He immediately lowered the window and said helplessly, "Senior...what are you doing?"

Nan Xizi hesitated for a while before mustering up the courage to say, "I want to go with you."

Meng Yao couldn't help but feel even more helpless.

Let’s not talk about how dangerous it is to deal with alien beasts.

Meng Yao hasn’t figured out Nan Xizi’s current situation yet: Is she a parallel body in this world, or is she the Nan Xizi whose memory has been sealed?

Or is it the embodiment of a medal?

Bringing her along would probably only distract Meng Yao.

But Nan Xizi just said one sentence, and Meng Yao asked her to get in the car directly.

"When I... was hiding in the freezer, some memories seemed to come back to me. I recognized you. You are Meng Yao, right?"

It was this sentence that made Meng Yao abandon all ideas and decide to take Nan Xizi with him.

With the addition of Nan Xizi, although this land combat vehicle is larger than an ordinary private car, it is ultimately just a sedan structure and is greatly overloaded.

Meng Yao thought about it and let Lopes sit on the roof of the car, while George was stuffed into the trunk.

There's nothing I can do. Who made this guy so unconvinced?

However, Meng Yao was still very humane and did not close the trunk door.

Looking at the packed combat vehicle, Meng Yao nodded with satisfaction.

Then he used the key he took from George to start the combat vehicle.

As soon as the combat vehicle started, a voice familiar to Meng Yao came from inside: "George, Long, how are you doing? What did you find?"

"Why did the communication suddenly disappear?"

This voice belongs to GUYS's good team members.

Meng Yao cleared his throat and pressed the communication button: "Hello, I'm Meng Yao."

"That's the wanted criminal you've been talking about lately."

There was silence on the other end of the communication for a moment. Meng Yao vaguely heard a few exclamations, and thought that Team Xiaohao was scared by her.

Then a sharp roar came from inside: "You! What do you want to do?"

The voice naturally came from Commander Toriyama. Meng Yao smiled and said, "I won't do anything. Your team members are in my hands. But they are all fine, don't worry."

"Now, I'm going to take you to see the truth, the murderer behind the murder case."

With that, Meng Yao turned off the communication and rushed out with his foot on the accelerator.

On the other side, the base was in chaos.

After the fusion of the Aix world and the Mebius world, the bases of the two defense teams were completely integrated.

Seen from the outside, the Phoenix Nest appears even more magnificent with fighter jet take-off and landing passages extending from all sides.

In the command room, the fat Commander Toriyama kept shouting, but the communication with He Nai Mengyao had been cut off, so his trash talk could only be heard in the air.

Xiaohao said from the side, "Commander Toriyama, why don't we notify Director Misaki and Captain Kamiki."

Commander Toriyama was about to say something when his adjutant flattered him, "Commander, the night supervisor and the captain are both resting. Logically, you're the only one who can command this emergency."

Listening to their conversation, it turned out that the captain after the integration of GUYS and Xio was Kamiki, the former captain of Gio.

Toriyama thought about it, then snorted and turned his nose up at the sky: "That's right, good team member!"

"Let's not disturb them." Commander Toriyama puffed out his belly. "Activate the base's artificial intelligence 'Infinity' and quickly track down Long and his team's combat vehicles!"

Seeing Xiaohao's unwilling expression, Commander Toriyama couldn't help but say pretentiously: "GUYS, Sally go!"

Xiaohao could only adjust his glasses and said weakly: "GIG~"

She was also familiar with Commander Toriyama's character, and although not reporting it was unfair, there was nothing wrong with the order he gave now.

Then, as Xiao Hao issued a command, invisible electronic waves began to flow in all directions along the optical cables laid underground in the Phoenix Nest.

-----

On the other side, Meng Yao was driving.

He used the communicator on Long's body to check the video footage of the truck on the road at that time.

The video footage showed that the truck was attacked by the alien beast while driving in the Jiumu area. As for the driver, he had already been killed and controlled by the alien beast.

Coincidentally, Jiu Mu's direction was the same as the traces left by the alien beast when it escaped.

Meng Yao determined his target and stepped on the accelerator even harder.

In the end, the entire combat vehicle actually flew into the air.

Meng Yao was so shocked that he almost screamed out.

Only then did he realize that this combat vehicle should also have integrated Geo's technology and possessed amphibious capabilities.

After the combat vehicle could fly, Meng Yao's speed became even faster. He soon left the city and drove deep into the endless mountains.

Just as Meng Yao was concentrating on driving, Nan Xizi's cell phone beside him suddenly started beeping.

It was around six or seven in the morning, and the mountains on the horizon were already turning slightly white.

Who would call Nan Xizi at this time?

Nan Xizi hesitated a little, but still answered the phone.

After the humming sound of electricity, an emotionless electronic voice came from inside: [Hello, Meng Yao.]

Meng Yao couldn't help but startle, and the three guards in the back seat were also shocked. George even smiled crookedly: "It's Infinity, Meng Yao, you are now being tracked by the base's satellite."

"What is nothing?"

Meng Yao looked at George in the rearview mirror and asked him.

"I'm an artificial intelligence jointly developed by GUYS and Xio Technology. I'm responsible for assisting in managing all combat commands issued by the defense team," Wuxian said coldly. "I just tracked the phone of a citizen named 'Minami Xizi' by analyzing electromagnetic waves."

"Commander Toriyama is sending you a message: Please land immediately and allow the Defense Force to investigate. We will investigate the strange incident ourselves, especially since the truth you're claiming has no basis in fact!"

Meng Yao couldn't help but smile: "Basis? What I'm showing you now is the basis!"

"Tell your commander that you'd better speed up, otherwise you won't be able to see it."

As he said that, he turned off Nan Xizi's phone and stepped on the accelerator.

The combat vehicle whooshed far into the air and headed towards the mountains facing the rising sun.

After a few minutes, the trail was completely cut off. Meng Yao had no choice but to use the combat vehicle's built-in radar map, and unexpectedly discovered an abandoned stone processing plant deep in the mountains.

Lopus, who was clinging to the roof of the car, also saw the processing plant. He leaned down and said, "Meng Yao, that processing plant has detected a very faint extra-dimensional fluctuation."

"It's very likely the lair of the alien beast!"

Extradimensional fluctuations? Lair?

Meng Yao naturally thought of the place where Jun-ge had died in the battle to extinguish the lights. He was just chasing a monster, so he wouldn't really chase it to the big boss, right?

But after all, Beidou was abducted by the alien beast, and Meng Yao had no choice.

Without hesitation, he parked the combat vehicle in front of the processing plant.

Meng Yao found a Plato gun in the car and then untied Hayato and George.

He specifically said to George: "Whether you believe it or not, this is the lair of the alien beasts, and the recent murders were all committed by the alien beasts."

"I let you go in the hope that you can help me."

Meng Yao said, breaking open the tip of Plato's gun, and turned to walk into the processing plant: "If you still have the consciousness of being a defense team, then follow me honestly."

Ryu and Hayato also looked at George.

George gritted his teeth, wiped the dried blood foam from the corner of his mouth, and followed: "Who are you looking down on?!"

It was getting light, and even though there were no lights in the factory, everyone could still see things. So they each held up their guns and slowly moved inside.

Nan Xizi stayed in the car, helping Meng Yao and the others keep an eye on the movements in the processing plant at any time.

The faint light from the morning sun could only barely illuminate the outline of the processing plant.

After Meng Yao and others completely stepped into the factory, visibility was almost reduced to the lowest point, and everything they saw was basically dark.

It was a mess everywhere, and it looked like the processing plant had been abandoned for many years.

Meng Yao, who was walking in front, reached out and wiped his hand on a pillar. He found a familiar patch of mucus on his hand. His eyes narrowed involuntarily: "It's the body fluids of those alien beasts!"

"Looks like we're not chasing the wrong place."

"We have to speed up." Lopus kept a vigilant eye on his surroundings while talking to Meng Yao. "But this factory is so large, there might be structures underground."

"Where exactly is the alien beast's lair? And how can we find it?"

Meng Yao couldn't help but think about this question.

At this moment, the communicators of Long, George and Hayato rang at the same time.

Then, a voice that sounded familiar to Meng Yao rang out. It was the Defense Force AI Infinity that had previously tracked the combat vehicle:

[I have completely scanned the factory's structure via satellite and have now passed it on to the three of you.]

Long pressed the communicator and saw a three-dimensional map.

Infinity continued in a cold tone: [Based on previous speculation, the alien beast's lair is likely in another dimension.]

[Somewhere in this factory may intersect with that dimension. I've marked all possible locations. You just need to explore them one by one.]

Immediately afterwards, five spots of light appeared on the map and kept flashing.

Lopus couldn't help but sigh: "This AI of yours is really useful."

"Of course, this is the result of the convergence of technology from the two defense forces." Long kept the communicator constantly on, holding it in his hand. "With Infinity, our work in dealing with monsters and aliens has become extremely simple."

Meng Yao nodded and said, "In that case, let's go check those spots."

"Lopus can be separated from us, so it will be more efficient."

Although efficiency is the most important thing now, this is the lair of the alien beasts after all, so the first priority is to ensure safety.

With this plan in mind, Lopez took Hayato's communicator and the five of them began to act separately.

Watching Lopus gradually disappear into the darkness in another direction, Meng Yao and Long and three others began to head towards the second point.

With the map provided by Infinite, they quickly went deep into the factory.

The further you go in, the more mucus there is. It even solidifies into lumps above your head, hanging from the ceiling, and constantly dripping with fishy-smelling water droplets.

Tick-tick-tick-

Amidst the constant sound of water drops, a black shadow suddenly pounced towards Meng Yao and his three companions who were moving forward.

The terrifying roar echoed far away in the empty factory, making it difficult to tell the direction for a moment.

But the defense team is well-trained after all, and Meng Yao also has rich combat experience.

Almost at the moment the black shadow pounced, they formed a formation in front and behind and fired at the approaching black shadow.

More than a dozen bullets were fired, and the alien beast was killed while still in mid-air.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Meng Yao cautiously went forward to check.

However, just as he arrived in front of the corpse of the alien beast, he felt a fishy wind blowing.

That alien beast was actually pretending to be dead!

Even at this time, he is still thinking about taking advantage of Mengyao.

Meng Yao was caught off guard. As soon as he raised the gun in his hand, the alien beast's claws were almost in front of him.

boom!

George fired a shot, and the alien beast was blasted away, falling to the ground and finally becoming motionless.

“Be careful, you rookie.” Although he couldn’t see clearly, Meng Yao still heard George blowing his bangs subconsciously, “With this level, it seems that you are not the murderer.”

When he received endless clues, George already knew that the real murderer was someone else.

Meng Yao could tell that George was mocking him, but he could also feel that this arrogant guy was conveying goodwill in another way.

So I said thank you anyway.
