Chapter 681: Space Jump ( 2 )
At first, Jiao Lizhi wanted her fiancé to wait in her space. It would be more convenient for her to go alone. But when she met his eyes, she swallowed the words back.
She was sure that if she dared to tell him her intention to leave him behind, her fiancé would sulk for a long time. He was rarely sulking, but once he sulked, it would take a long time to coax him.
To avoid trouble, she nodded and agreed, "Okay."
Satisfied with her reply, Jin Xuyan smiled and leaned down to give her a peck on her lips.
They had shared several intimate moments, and this was not the first time she undressed in front of him. But for an unknown reason, when she noticed his gaze locked on her, Jiao Lizhi felt shy. She grabbed the clothes and rushed to the bathroom to change.
Seeing her flee, the corner of Jin Xuyan’s lips was lifted. It was great that his fiancée finally showed her girlish side.
When Jiao Lizhi came out, she had already calmed down. The two of them carried their backpacks and held hands before they left the space.
The moment they reappeared outside, they were faced with a snowstorm.
The sound of wind howling around them was deafening, and the snow was so thick that they were barely able to see their surroundings. Using his body and arms, Jin Xuyan protected his fiancée from the storm.
Fortunately, they were wearing goggles that blocked the snow and wind. But even with a complete set of winter gear, they still had to circulate their energy to dispel the cold.
Raising her hand, Jiao Lizhi circulated her energy and was surprised to find that she was actually able to control the snow around them. Focusing her mind, she tried to control the area of a 10-meter radius around them.
The moment her energy merged with the snow, a transparent barrier was formed around them.
Jin Xuyan lowered his arms and looked around. Except for the area of 10 meters around them, the rest of the area was engulfed in the snowstorm.
Jiao Lizhi smiled and said, "Brother Yan, we actually can control the elements around us with our energy."
Jin Xuyan nodded and explained, "Every ability-user can control the element according to their ability type. It’s just that the difficulty of controlling natural phenomena is too high."
After a moment of pause, he reached out to pat the snow from her head and added, "Ah Zhi, you are amazing."
Happy to be praised, Jiao Lizhi grinned and replied, "Brother Yan, you are also amazing."
Now that they were no longer trapped in the middle of a snowstorm, she held her fiancé’s hand and said, "Gaia, use the space jump and teleport us to other areas outside the 100-kilometer radius."
"Opening the space gate. Initiating the space jump in 3... 2... 1..."
The moment the mechanical voice echoed in her mind, Jiao Lizhi felt a strong suction coming from her surroundings and became dizzy. The feeling lasted for 2 seconds before it disappeared.
When she opened her eyes, she noticed that the snowstorm had disappeared, and they were standing at the edge of a deep ravine.
Crash!
The sound of huge amounts of snow falling into the ravine echoed for a moment before the surroundings returned to tranquility.
"Ah Zhi, are you alright?"
Hearing her fiancé’s voice, Jiao Lizhi raised her head and met his worried eyes. She shook her head and said, "Brother Yan, I’m fine."
Fearing that the ground was unstable, Jin Xuyan carried her and moved to a safer place. They hid behind a huge boulder while Jiao Lizhi asked Gaia to scan the surroundings.
After a moment, a map appeared in front of her.
She thought that they would have to do the space jump a few more times before they were able to locate the hidden facility. Unexpectedly, she noticed a strange shape similar to an ant nest record in the Tarakam Civilization history inside a mountain.
"Gaia, zoom in on this area."
Following her order, the map zoomed in, and the view became clearer. The strange shape turned out to be a maze-like structure with countless round-shaped rooms.
"Brother Yan, I think I found the facility."
Hearing this, Jin Xuyan was delighted. "Ah Zhi, where is it?"
"It’s 67 kilometers away from our current location. We need to do another jump."
"We are going to investigate, so it’s better not to startle the enemy," Jin Xuyan reminded her.
Jiao Lizhi nodded and said, "Gaia, teleport us to area 5 kilometers away from this structure."
"Opening the space gate. Initiating the space jump in 3... 2... 1..."
This time, both of them were prepared and no longer as surprised as before. Besides a moment of dizziness, the 2 of them didn’t feel any discomfort.
When they appeared in the new location, they noticed that the amount of snow covering the ground was thinner than in other areas. Squatting down, Jin Xuyan observed the ground and said, "Several heavy-weight vehicles just passed through this area."
"Brother Yan, what are your plans?"
Raising his head, Jin Xuyan looked at the colorful sky and said, "Wait until nighttime before we sneak into the facility."
"Okay, let’s go to my space first," Jiao Lizhi agreed readily.
The next moment, the 2 of them disappeared from the spot.
Meanwhile, in the Green Lake Base, the wall construction was progressing smoothly. With Wen Kai and Wen Mo supplying the metals for the foundation, they didn’t have to go outside to collect more metals, which greatly increased the speed.
As for Zhang Yuan, after reaching level 3, his mastery of controlling the earth element had improved by leaps and bounds. With his current energy pool, he was able to work for 10 hours without stopping before he ran out of energy.
At this moment, Su Ruanyi was covered in dust and dirt as she controlled the mixture of cement and sand.
