Chapter 124: The Camp Commandant Arrives, Behind the Wormhole
There was a Dimensional Passage beneath the pool!
On top of that, the passage led to an outer space planet...
And it was a planet of life with rich Gene Arcana!
Ling Jiu and the girls were skeptical of Barry’s words, but what he said tempted them. Just in case... Just in case...
In case it was true, then they would have discovered a brand-new world!
“Ling Jiu, what do you plan to do?”
Ai Yuhe and Yang Ling’er looked at Ling Jiu, waiting for him to take the lead.
“Well, no harm in checking it out!”
Ling Jiu looked at Barry Kaiser and struck without any hesitation.
Bam!
Barry Kaiser’s head exploded and died instantly.
“Ling Jiu, you...” The two girls were dumbstruck for a moment. “Why did you kill him?”
“Two reasons!”
Ling Jiu said faintly. “First, he had attacked us twice, wanting to kill us, and he nearly killed the two of you last time. So, his head should have been on the hit list on ago!”
“Second, I want to investigate the pool, and he is an unstable variable. To reduce any unnecessary trouble, I can only do this!”
“Oh, I see!”
The two girls nodded slightly.
“Wait for me here. I’ll go down to have a look.” Ling Jiu said slowly.
“Brother, I want to have a look too!”
“Me too!”
“Wait here. Once I’m sure that there’s no danger, the two of you can come down!”
Ling Jiu’s tone meant that there was no room for negotiations, and the two girls could not do anything but agree to it.
Good men are like this, while they will love you, care for you, and even pamper you as usual, but when it comes to issues of principles, they will not bend their backs.
“Just wait for me!”
Ling Jiu said to them as he prepared to enter the pool. Unexpectedly, a heavy voice rang out. “Ling Jiu, hold on!”
“Hmmm?”
Ling Jiu shuddered and saw two streams of light rushing over and appeared at the skies above the valley in a blink of an eye. It was the camp commandant and the trainer, Jing Biao.
“Why are they here?”
Yang Ling’er and Ai Yuhe were both shocked.
“I’ll explain to you later!”
Ling Jiu sighed helplessly, and then immediately greeted the two with a smiling face. “Camp Commandant, Sir Jing Biao. You are here!”
“Thank goodness we came in time!”
Jing Biao breathed a sigh of relief before turning around to scold him, all the while laughing. “Boy, how could you believe someone so easily? Don’t you know how dangerous that was just now?”
“Dangerous?”
Ling Jiu was stunned.
“It’s a long story, I’ll explain to you later!”
As Jing Biao finished talking, he looked at Barry Kaiser’s body and could not help but sigh. “This kid disappeared two years ago in the wilderness. I thought he was dead. Didn’t expect him to be alive and well though!”
“This...”
Ling Jiu smiled awkwardly. “I killed him. I don’t really need to bear any responsibilities, right?”
“This is the wilderness!”
The camp commandant glanced at Ling Jiu and then ignored him. He then became to the sky above the pool, and carefully perceived it.
historical
“This is the wilderness, and the training camp will not stop you from killing one another! Besides, keeping a selfish b*stard like him around is pointless!”
Jing Biao patted Ling Jiu on the shoulder. “Also, if what Barry Kaiser said is true, not only you are free from any blame today, but all of you had also made a great contribution. It may very well that you lot have struck gold!”
Ling Jiu was tempted. “Sir Jing Biao, do you also believe what Barry said?”
“I’ll give it 80 percent believable.”
Jing Biao smiled and continued, “Those things Barry said are one of the greatest secrets of the top levels of humanity. It is impossible for someone at his level to come into contact with it.”
“So, if he had no clue about that at all, then what he said is quite believable.”
“Secrets?”
Ling Jiu suddenly realized something and immediately asked, “Could it be that aside from the Dimensional Passage here, there are stable passages elsewhere?”
“Heh!”
Jing Biao patted Ling Jiu on the shoulder. While he did not verbalize it, his eyes gave an affirmative answer, and that shocked Ling Jiu.
There are other stable Dimensional Passages on Earth!
“Heh! I didn’t come for nothing!”
The camp commandant suddenly laughed and attracted everyone’s attention. Jing Biao immediately asked, “Sir, have you found the Dimensional Passage?”
The camp commandant did not answer, and instead tapped the bottom of the pool and shouted. “Open!”
The silt at the bottom of the pool suddenly transformed into an earthen dragon before rushing to the side.
A moment later, a dark hole appeared at the bottom of the pool.
The hole was dark and rumbling, making it difficult to see what was inside.
“Student Ai Yuhe, can you sense anything?” The camp commandant looked at Ai Yuhe and asked with a smile.
“There are strong spatial fluctuations beneath this hole, but the fluctuations are very stable, unlike the chaotic ones beneath the camp!”
Ai Yuhe said truthfully.
“As expected of the Dimensional Arcana!”
The camp commandant smiled as he praised her. “Come, let’s go down to have a look!”
As the camp commandant said that, he floated toward the hole, and Jing Biao immediately followed him.
“Let’s go down too!”
Upon stepping into the hole, it was like entering a dark underground cave.
At first, the cavern was narrow and only allowed one person to pass through at a time. As it continued to deepen, however, the cavern became more and more spacious, with jagged stone walls and various stalactites hanging on the ceiling.
Moreover, the ground had obviously been cleaned by someone and appeared rather flat. At times, there were even some rather obscured stairways, so walking was not difficult.
After walking all the way into the hole for about ten minutes, the group arrived at a very empty underground ‘palace’.
The underground palace was very large and spacious, but everyone’s eyes were drawn to a colored light at the center of the ‘palace’.
It was a colorful bubble about twenty meters in diameter that was suspended in the air, radiating a misty color on its surface, and was filled with a magical charm.
“That’s the Dimensional Passage?”
Ling Jiu stared at the colored bubbles.
“That’s the Dimensional Passage!”
The camp commandant smiled. “Inside the sphere-shaped Dimensional Passage or... wormhole, is a small and stable wormhole inside a planet!”
“A small wormhole?”
Ai Yuhe and Yang Ling’er shuddered, as they were drawn to it.
“Look there!”
Jing Biao pointed to a corner and saw a maglev airship being parked there.
Around the airship was lots of trash, with Direbeast bones, used toilet paper, and even a few tombstones.
“That should be Barry’s airship.”
“Barry had lived here for two whole years. This rubbish is proof that he had lived here!”
“Eh? Why bother? To let himself ‘die’ just so he can hog the Dimensional Passage? I really don’t understand what he was thinking.”
“The thing on the other end of the wormhole is the real reason for his extreme behavior!”
Everyone once again looked at the wormhole floating in the air. What was it beyond the wormhole that caused a super training camp trainee to willingly ‘die’ to take sole possession of this wormhole?
“Camp commandant, should we go in to have a look?”
Jing Biao could not suppress his excitement and was eager to have a peek.
“It’s rare to find such a wormhole, so it must be explored. But none of us knows what lies beyond it, so we must be careful!”
