"Lost Ninggu, we must have entered Lost Valley." Long Biao stood on the roof, looking at the traveler who had almost run around while fighting against the city guard.

After a pause, he said again: "The six groups of Lianchuan communications have been interrupted, and it is speculated that they have entered the Valley of Lost Path."

"The mission is over," Lei Yu's voice came, "return the team and stand by."

Long Biao glanced at the opposite side. When he came over, the caracal cat had been squatting on the roof, looking down. Now when he looked up, there was no sign of the caracal cat.

"The caracal is gone," Long Biao connected to Lei Yu's private channel, "Do you need to report it?"

"No," Lei Yu said, "It's just Lian Chuan's partner, it's not a cleanup team for a long time, and it doesn't need to report."

"Understood." Long Biao finished speaking but did not exit the channel.

"Say." Lei Yu said.

"Does Lian Chuan have a personal mission? You must successfully capture the target or something," Long Biao said. "Although I always have reservations about Lian Chuan's ability being touted, it does not prevent me from thinking that this kind of mission is inhumane."

"Close the team." Lei Yu said.

This mission is not a secret mission. Although Long Biao mentioned Lian Chuan's personal mission which he did not disclose to other team members, but because the mission itself has no problems, it doesn't matter.

It's just that Long Biao's words made him a little uncomfortable. Long Biao has always been dissatisfied with Lian Chuan, and there have been various disagreements since the first day they met, but both Long Biao and Lian Chuan will still do their best to protect their teammates during the mission.

Their captain couldn't do it.

Lei Yu sighed and walked into the building of the Ministry of Internal Defense.

Lian Chuan's course of action has already been reported, so he doesn't need to come here again, but since everyone in the city's internal defense thinks he is protecting the calf, he doesn't hide that he really wants to come over to inquire about the progress.

There was only Liu Dong in the monitoring room, and Lei Yu heaved a sigh of relief. He didn't want Minister Chen to be present. Although this minister was the person who had the most direct contact with the Ministry of Internal Defense from the City Affairs Department, he was an outsider after all.

It's better not to inquire about the progress, especially about Lian Chuan, in front of outsiders.

"I knew you would come." Liu Dong clasped his hands and looked at him with a smile.

"How is it?" Lei Yu asked, "Any feedback?"

"No," Liu Dong frowned, "When Ning Gu and Lian Chuan entered the Lost Valley, the travelers' abilities interfered too much, and they didn't capture a clear picture."

"Are you sure both of them went in?" Lei Yu asked.

"Are you very reluctant for him to go in?" Liu Dong looked at him.

"Of course I don't want to emotionally." Lei Yu replied.

"Then is he willing to go in or not?" Liu Dong held his chin and looked at the chaotic and blurred picture repeatedly played on the screen in front of him. or into the Valley of Lost?"

"Are you trying to say that he went in on purpose?" Lei Yu crossed his arms, "Then why did he choose the Lost Path Valley as the place to guard? Just find any place, and when Ning Gu goes in, he will naturally 'have to go in'."

Liu Dong nodded slowly, but quickly followed up: "Have you asked him? Why are you in the Valley of Lost Path?"

"I asked," Lei Yu said, "The premise to prove that he is irreplaceable is that he is still alive."

I live to prove that I am irreplaceable.

No matter what Ning Gu means to the main city, it is a huge threat to Lian Chuan. If he is directly caught and sent up, he may no longer be able to take the initiative.

His only way is to take the initiative to enter when everyone feels that he is unwilling to enter the Valley of Lost.

In this place where even the internal defense department with the strongest equipment has never taken the initiative to set foot, in the face of possible loss, disappearance, and death, he may have the last hope of controlling his own destiny.

"Do you understand?" Lian Chuan looked at Ning Gu.

Ning Gu blinked.

Lian Chuan let go of his fingers on his throat.

Ning Gu's ability may not be fully stimulated, not every time he gets close, he will feel it, and this time he and Ning Gu looked at each other without any change.

But whether it was attack or defense, he had never heard of travelers having passive abilities.

There was the sound of people talking at the entrance, and a traveler ran in.

"Go." Lian Chuan gave Ning Gu a push.

Ning Gu hesitated for a moment, but didn't call for help. Firstly, he lost face, secondly, he didn't want his companion to die, and thirdly...he wanted to know why Lian Chuan wanted him to see and feel the cruelty in those long memories.

He faintly felt that these things were the key to his survival in Lian Chuan's hands.

It's even the reason why he can blackmail Lianchuan.

As for why Lian Chuan sent the handle to his door, he still hasn't figured it out yet. Travelers come and go like the wind, and their brains are blown wherever they go. Anyway, he is not dead yet, so he can think about it when he has time.

When Ning Gu continued to walk along the passage, he heard a slight mechanical sound coming from behind him. He turned his head and found that Lian Chuan was taking off his exoskeleton and equipment.

He suddenly became anxious, and suppressed his voice: "Do you really think you are the first brother of the cleanup team? Are you too arrogant? You came up from someone else's site, and you still need to download equipment? Do you know what's inside..."

Lian Chuan threw the weapon on the ground beside him, and raised his finger at him.

Ning Gu immediately covered his throat, turned and walked forward.

As soon as he took two steps, he felt his collar and shoulders tighten, and then his arms were pulled behind him. When he recovered, the long coat he was wearing was already on Lian Chuan.

"Do you want to be shameless?" Ning Gu looked down at himself in shock, sure that in this second, his coat was snatched by the hyena, and the mighty ghost town bully didn't have time to struggle.

Literally burning with anger.

"Go." Lian Chuan looked at him and gave a brief instruction.

Ning Gu felt that he was so grown up that he could bear it so much in front of the leader. He walked forward sullenly, tearing a hole at the hem of the short coat he was wearing while walking.

There was also a line on the long coat, and whether it was useful or not, he marked it as the hammer told him.

The travelers who came in behind roared and ran past him, and one of them jumped on his shoulders, very excited.

Ning Gu quickened his pace, and soon saw the red light of Lost Valley.

He stopped, turned back to look at Lian Chuan: "I'm going to talk."

Lian Chuan didn't make a sound.

Ning Gu didn't make a sound, and stared at Lian Chuan's face in a daze.

Lian Chuan got off his equipment and grabbed his clothes before, probably because he was afraid of being recognized as a hyena, so now his face is too advanced, and the hyena-specific goggles have also been taken off, revealing his entire face.

Ning Gu had seen his face segment by segment before, but he didn't have any idea. Now that he looks at it together, it is much more intuitive, and it is still very consistent with the legend, with a cold expression on his face.

But the age looks younger than he imagined.

"Leave without saying anything." Lian Chuan said.

"This is my second visit to Lost Valley," Ning Gu said, "Don't expect me to guide you, I don't know the way."

"Go." Lian Chuan said.

"I haven't finished." Ning Gu looked at him.

Lian Chuan didn't make a sound or move.

"If someone makes trouble, you have to help me deal with it," Ning Gu said, "I don't know why you let me see your old things, but if you don't help me, I don't care what your reason is, I won't Cooperate."

Lian Chuan still had no expression on his face, not even his eyes changed.

"Deal?" Ning Gu asked.

"Deal." Lian Chuan replied.

Ning Gu nodded, turned around and walked into Lost Valley.

Nine Wings hadn't counted the number of layers in Lost Valley, and bats never cared about these.

He just needs to know that in this huge funnel-shaped underground world that seems to have no end, this layer that most people can't reach is his lair, and that's it.

Jiuyi squatted in a dark red halo, and there was no one around.

This is his alone time.

The travelers are at it again, the rowdy Black Mist adventurers.

The irregularly shaped metal pier under his feet could sense all kinds of vibrations from the labyrinth-like cave on the upper floor. The 49 metal cylinders arranged around the metal pier could collect all kinds of sounds.

Talking, shouting, laughing, crying, screaming, cursing...

He couldn't hear them clearly, these were all his guesses.

But he could hear from these voices what the Lost Valley looks like today, safe or dangerous, calm or noisy, boring or...interesting.

Interesting.

Nine Wings raised his hand, and a modified metal spike stuck on his index finger made a buzzing sound.

Several subordinates ran out from the cave behind them and squeezed to his side, their faces glowing red, and their glances were full of energy caused by excessive boredom.

"There's a hyena coming in," Nine Wings said.

"What?" Fu Lu was surprised, "Did the hyena dare to enter the Valley of Lost?"

"Yeah, I'm also surprised," Jiu Yi squeezed his chin, "The hyena dares to enter the Valley of Lost... When was the last time a hyena came in?"

"There was no time for me." Fu Lu said.

"Not me." Su Xi said.

"And without me..."

"nor… "

Several bats made noises together, and Nine Wings waved his hands: "Shut up."

"What are we going to do?" Floo didn't shut up.

"Take someone to check the exits of the main city," Jiu Yi said, "see if there is anything going on outside... the Black Ring Squad."

"Yes." Someone answered in the dim red light in the distance.

"Go and see which hyena is so bold." Nine Wings said.

"Do you want to do it?" Captain Black Ring asked.

"Do you think hyenas are so easy to catch?" Nine Wings voice was full of resentment towards the mentally retarded. "Hyenas are so easy to catch, why do we have to hide here?"

"But this is the Valley of Lost Ways," Shouxi said. "The hyenas get lost when they enter."

"I don't care if he gets lost or not," Jiu Yi looked up, and the maze of caves with layers of red light made people feel drunk. "Hyenas will not enter the Valley of Lost without a reason. Regardless of whether he is lost or not, find out why he came in, and what he wants is mine."
