I am the Holy Poisoner, the Empress advised me to calm down

"Since you know the consequences are serious, why do you set up such a test?" Shen Shiyan asked bluntly. He keenly noticed that the other party's words vaguely revealed the meaning of testing human nature.

"Because we want to see more people like you who are innovative and willing to sacrifice themselves, rather than relying solely on technological means to solve all problems." After saying that, the blurry figure began to become transparent until it completely disappeared, leaving only the stunned participants in the room.

"Wait!" Just when everyone thought the matter was over, the man who had once caused controversy and then inexplicably disappeared suddenly appeared in everyone's sight, with a meaningful smile on his face. "Don't worry, everyone. In fact, this drama is far from over~"

His words undoubtedly added another layer of confusion to everyone's minds. "What did you say? Who are you? And what's your relationship with that guy who just called himself 'Future Observer'?" A young police officer couldn't help but stand up and question.

In response, the old man just shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'll leave these problems for you to solve slowly. In short, please remember, no matter how difficult and bumpy the road ahead is, as long as you have faith in your heart and the courage to explore the unknown, the truth will be unveiled one day..." After that, he strode away from the scene.

As his departing figure faded into the distance, everyone couldn't help but fall into a new round of heated discussion. "What did he mean? Isn't everything over yet?"

"Hey," a friend nearby patted the shoulder of the curious guy who first asked the question, "It looks like we still have a lot of stories to go through."

"Yes," the young man smiled brightly in response, "but as long as we stay united, there's nothing we can't overcome!"

At this moment, the renewed energy within the factory seemed to give everyone endless motivation. Facing the upcoming new round of challenges, everyone's eyes gleamed with indomitable determination.

All of this is just the beginning of a much grander story. So, what secret will they discover next?

Just as everyone was immersed in their own thoughts, a faint but familiar electronic prompt sound interrupted the silence -

"The alarm system has detected a new, approaching abnormal signal! The target is expected to arrive at the current coordinates in 10 minutes!" Lin Chen's heart suddenly tightened. This sudden new alarm had once again calmed him down. "Everyone, get ready! We need to respond quickly to this unpredictable situation." He turned to look at Shen Shiyan and Li Wei, his eyes filled with solemnity and determination. The three of them quickly gathered together to discuss how to deal with the impending threat.

"Within 10 minutes, we need to determine the exact nature of this new anomaly and then develop a detailed response strategy." Li Wei quickly activated her device and began collecting data and analyzing it. "But first," she turned to face the crowd, "please seek shelter in a safe location. We will resolve this issue as quickly as possible."

At this critical moment, the young man who seemed a little unwilling to admit defeat spoke again: "If we all hide, who will help you? Maybe I can do something within my ability?" His eyes revealed a sincere willingness to help, although there was also a bit of curiosity and desire.

Several workers nearby also agreed: "Yes, we are also part of the team. Let's do our best to help as much as we can!"

Seeing this, Shen Shiyan nodded gently, "Okay, thank you very much for your support. But remember, please pay attention to your personal safety. If there are any signs of danger, retreat immediately. This is an order."

Just as everyone was about to start taking action according to their division of labor, a more cautious voice sounded, "Wait... I think we should first figure out what this thing is. What if it has the same strange abilities as before?"

In response to this concern, the man who had mysteriously disappeared suddenly reappeared, as if he had been observing everything from a distance. "Honestly, sometimes overthinking can lead to missing the best opportunities. I believe these professionals are capable of ensuring our safety. And... maybe this will be one of the most wonderful memories of our lives!"

This remark instantly resonated with the people around him, who nodded in agreement. However, beneath this courage lay a greater curiosity and desire to explore the unknown.

"Alright, time is running out. We need everyone to do their job." Li Wei interrupted the brief emotional exchange and assigned specific tasks. "One group will monitor security outside the factory. Any suspicious situations must be reported immediately. The other groups will search for usable tools and supplies in case of emergency."

For the next few minutes, the entire factory was bustling with activity. Lin Chen and his team set up a temporary command center in the center, utilizing all available resources to construct a simple defensive barrier. The others, however, each carried out their assigned tasks.

Soon, the electronic countdown reached zero. As everyone waited with bated breath, a faint but gradually growing roar suddenly erupted from the distance. "Here they come!" someone shouted, and everyone's eyes turned to the direction of the sound.

Then, a massive black object streaked across the night sky and slowly descended. Its shape reminded one of some high-tech aircraft, its surface gleaming with a cold metallic sheen. As it touched down, the surrounding ground shook slightly.

"What is that...?" A timid young worker swallowed and looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief, which seemed like something out of a science fiction movie.

Just as everyone was lost in surprise, the hatch of the spaceship slowly opened, and several figures in special protective suits emerged. "Don't be nervous, we're friendly," the leader introduced himself in a calm voice. "My name is Chen Xiang, and I represent an organization dedicated to protecting Earth from external threats. We heard about an unusual incident here, so we're here to offer assistance."

This statement immediately sparked heated discussion among the crowd. Questions and speculations arose, such as "Whose power are they?" and "Are they really here to protect us?"

Shen Shiyan stepped forward to greet the newly joined team. "Thank you for coming. May I ask how you learned about this matter and were able to come so promptly?"

Chen Xiang responded, "We have an advanced surveillance system capable of detecting abnormal energy fluctuations worldwide. When we discovered the activities of unknown forces here, we immediately set out."

At this moment, the young man who always dared to speak up came over and said, "Hey, so, there might be more things like this happening in the future?"

Before Chen Xiang could answer, a more familiar voice joined the conversation——

"That's right, but this is just the beginning." It was that old man again. He had quietly returned to the crowd without anyone noticing, still with a mysterious smile on his face. "Friends, the real adventure has just begun..."
