Chapter 276 How could there be a place with such dense spiritual energy on Blue Star?
"Captain Zhao, how is it?" the secretary asked anxiously. "Is there something unclean?"
"It's not certain yet." Zhao Rui shook his head. "I'll go in and take a look."
"Captain Zhao, be careful!" the secretary said hurriedly.
"Okay." Zhao Rui nodded and said to the team members behind him, "You guys wait outside, I'll go in and take a look first."
"Captain, I'll go with you!" one of the team members said.
"No need." Zhao Rui waved his hand. "I can go in by myself. In case anything happens, you can come to my aid."
With that, Zhao Rui took out a flashlight and went into the cave.
……
The cave was cold and damp.
As Zhao Rui walked further in, he felt increasingly dizzy.
Moreover, he was also somewhat mentally disoriented.
"Something's not right..." Zhao Rui frowned and stopped in his tracks.
He could feel that strange energy growing stronger.
This energy seems to be affecting his mind.
If he goes any further in, he might just meet his end here.
Zhao Rui hesitated for a moment, but decided to leave first.
Too dangerous.
Let's report to the bureau chief first.
Zhao Rui turned around and walked back.
Fortunately, he hadn't gone far and was able to find an exit.
……
"Captain Zhao, how did it go?" Upon seeing Zhao Rui come out, the secretary hurriedly came up to him and asked.
"Something's not right inside," Zhao Rui said, frowning. "There's a strange energy here, I can't quite put my finger on it."
"If I go any further in, I'm afraid I'll fall in too."
"Oh no! What do we do then?" the secretary exclaimed anxiously. "There are still seven people inside!"
"Don't worry," Zhao Rui said. "I can't handle this myself; we'll have to call in an expert."
"A master?" The secretary was taken aback.
"Okay." Zhao Rui nodded, took out his phone, and said, "I'll call the director and ask Mr. Shen to take action."
Mr. Shen?
The secretary was taken aback.
He seemed to have heard of this title before.
It is said that there is a particularly powerful expert in Bureau 749, surnamed Shen, who can deal with all kinds of demons and monsters.
I never expected to meet this legendary master today.
……
Zhao Rui called Lin Jianguo and explained the situation.
After hearing this, Lin Jianguo also felt that this matter was not simple.
"Okay, I understand," Lin Jianguo said. "You wait there, I'll call Mr. Shen and ask him to come over and take a look."
"Yes, Director!" Zhao Rui replied.
After hanging up, Lin Jianguo called Shen Yu again.
……
Shen Yu was at home playing with his child when his phone rang.
He picked up his phone and saw that it was Lin Jianguo calling.
Shen Yu answered the phone.
"Mr. Shen, I'm sorry to bother you." Lin Jianguo's voice was very polite. "There's something I'd like to ask for your help with."
"What is it?" Shen Yu asked.
"A cave was discovered in the Taihang Mountains. Several people went inside, but they have all disappeared."
Lin Jianguo said, "Zhao Rui went to take a look and said there was a strange energy inside that he couldn't handle."
"Could you go over and take a look?"
Shen Yu raised an eyebrow.
Strange energy?
"Okay, I understand," Shen Yu said. "I'll go take a look."
"Oh, okay! Thank you so much, Mr. Shen!" Lin Jianguo said quickly. "Shall I send someone to pick you up right away?"
"No need," Shen Yu said. "I can go by myself."
"Well... alright, I'll have Zhao Rui wait for you there," Lin Jianguo said.
"Okay." Shen Yu responded and hung up the phone.
"What's wrong? Who is it?" Jiang Xinlan walked over and asked.
"Director Lin," Shen Yu said, "something happened in the Taihang Mountains, and they want me to go take a look."
"Huh? When are you leaving?" Jiang Xinlan asked.
"Let's go now." Shen Yu smiled. "It shouldn't be anything serious, I'll be back soon."
"Okay, then be careful." Jiang Xinlan nodded.
"Don't worry." Shen Yu smiled and patted her head.
After saying goodbye to his wife and children, Shen Yu went out.
They took to the air and flew towards the Taihang Mountains.
It was very fast; it arrived in just a few tens of minutes.
……
Deep in the Taihang Mountains, at the entrance of a cave.
Zhao Rui and the local leaders were waiting anxiously.
"Captain Zhao, Mr. Shen... when will he arrive?" the secretary couldn't help but ask.
He had been waiting for almost an hour and was getting a little anxious.
"It should be soon," Zhao Rui said. "Mr. Shen is very reliable."
He had just finished speaking.
"Whoosh—"
A figure descended from the sky.
They stood steadily at the entrance of the cave.
It was Shen Yu.
"Mr. Shen!" Zhao Rui's eyes lit up, and he quickly went to greet him. "You've finally arrived!"
The local leaders were dumbfounded.
Falling from the sky?
Is this... is this a deity?
The secretary stared wide-eyed, his face filled with disbelief.
No wonder people say Mr. Shen is a master.
That's way too high!
They can all fly!
……
"Mm." Shen Yu nodded, as if to greet Zhao Rui.
His gaze fell upon the cave.
He sensed it as soon as he got close.
A faint fluctuation of spiritual energy emanated from the cave.
Shen Yu's brows furrowed slightly.
Spiritual energy?
How could there be a place with such a strong spiritual energy on Earth?
Moreover, the fluctuations in this spiritual energy are very regular.
It doesn't look like it was formed naturally.
It looks more like... a formation?
Shen Yu was a little curious.
"Mr. Shen, look... what exactly is in this cave?" Zhao Rui asked cautiously.
"It's not certain yet," Shen Yu said calmly. "I'll go in and take a look."
"Oh? Mr. Shen, you're going in alone?" Zhao Rui was taken aback. "Would you like me to come with you?"
"No need." Shen Yu shook his head. "It's dangerous inside. You'll only cause trouble if you go in."
"Just wait outside."
"...Okay." Zhao Rui nodded, a little disappointed.
But he also knew that Mr. Shen was telling the truth.
In an event of this magnitude, he wouldn't really be of much help; in fact, he might even be a hindrance.
"Mr. Shen, please be careful!" Zhao Rui said.
"Hmm." Shen Yu responded and stepped into the cave.
……
It was pitch black inside the cave.
But for Shen Yu, it was no different from daytime.
With a sweep of his divine sense, he could clearly see the situation inside.
The cave was deep and winding.
The further you go in, the stronger the spiritual energy becomes.
Moreover, Shen Yu could sense traces of formations around him.
Those people who went missing earlier must have been trapped inside the formation.
It's not some kind of ghost wall, it's a real formation.
The Maze.
A very basic formation.
But for ordinary people, it's already strange enough.
As Shen Yu walked further in, the array was practically useless to him.
I walked for about several hundred meters.
Shen Yu saw several people lying on the ground.
It was those missing geological team members and police officers.
