Despite her inner complaints, Bai Mianmian ultimately entered the cave without hesitation.
However, although she acted without the slightest hesitation, it was because the mushroom spores had already drifted into the cave entrance, and the mushroom phantom on her body was still enveloping her.
With these offensive and defensive preparations, her personal safety was fully guaranteed, regardless of what the situation was inside the cave.
Han Feitong watched Bai Mianmian enter through the cave entrance.
There was nothing unusual about her face, but if you looked closely into her eyes, you would find a deep sense of defensiveness hidden in them.
Indeed, Bai Mianmian's attitude towards them along the way had far exceeded the normal social boundaries.
This made them question her ultimate goal and whether it would be too much for them to bear.
I hope not.
Han Feitong muttered to herself, following behind Bai Mianmian with a somewhat heavy heart.
Xin Xiao was the last person to enter.
As his figure disappeared into the cave entrance, the open opening slammed shut.
From the outside, the ground had been restored to its original state, even the dried and cracked soil was so perfect that there was no trace of a hole that had ever been there.
As the last butterfly-type insectoid was burned to ashes, a dry, strong wind swept across the ground, instantly carrying the remaining ashes into the sky and into the distance.
This last trace of human intervention then vanished without a trace.
……
Below the opening is a square space with only a dim light, which, while not affecting visibility, makes the entire space appear unusually dark.
After Bai Mianmian went down, she didn't step directly onto the ground. Instead, she controlled her hovering shoes to stay two centimeters above the ground.
Those who came down before her did not see any of them at this time.
If it weren't for the passageways on her left, right, and in front of her, she would have seriously wondered if this was a cage designed to imprison her.
"Madam, this way please." Han Feitong, who followed behind, led Bai Mianmian to the passage on the right.
Bai Mianmian glanced at her, said nothing, and then controlled her hovering shoes to fly towards the passage on the right.
At this moment, Xin Xiao also came down.
Bai Mianmian seemed to sense something, or as if she remembered something, and her figure paused.
At that moment, Han Feitong and Xin Xiao, who had just come down and turned their gaze to her, both felt their hearts skip a beat.
Han Feitong's face instantly tensed, her right hand, which was making a gesture of invitation, tightened slightly, and her eyes became wary. However, she did not dare to look directly at Bai Mianmian, and could only lower her eyes and stare intently at Bai Mianmian's hand.
Xin Xiao also tightened his grip on the flaming sword, a look of wariness appearing in his eyes.
However, just as this tense and stagnant atmosphere began, Bai Mianmian continued forward without looking back, entering the passage on the right at a leisurely pace.
Seeing that the person left directly, Han Feitong and Xin Xiao both breathed a sigh of relief.
They really thought Bai Mianmian was going to attack them, but thankfully it was a false alarm.
Bai Mianmian lowered her gaze slightly as she entered the passage.
She protected them all the way here, hoping that once they were in a safe place, she could ask them to help her contact Jiang Ci.
Since that place happened to be relatively safe, she remembered this matter and thought she would take the opportunity to ask about it.
As a result, she seemed to have frightened them. To avoid unnecessary conflict, and also because they were Jiang Ci's team members, she decided to wait a while until they were ready to take the initiative to talk to her.
However, this time cannot be delayed for too long, because she still has things to do.
In the passageway, Bai Mianmian was at the very front, Han Feitong was about a meter behind her, and Xin Xiao was at the very back.
None of the three spoke; they all silently maintained their speed and continued flying.
Although Han Feitong and Xin Xiao did not speak directly, the screen that only they could see displayed their conversation as well as messages from other people.
This is a chat group with many people, and the central figure in everyone's conversation is Bai Mianmian.
Han Feitong and the others recounted everything Bai Mianmian had asked them in the spoils warehouse, as well as Bai Mianmian's expression at the time.
Thus, Xin Xiao and others went from suspecting Bai Mianmian's motives to wondering about her relationship with Jiang Ci.
The fact that 90% of the people agreed with the conjecture that Jiang Ci had offended Bai Mianmian shows how deeply Jiang Ci's image is in their minds.
After turning a corner, Bai Mianmian saw a large metal door at the end of her line of sight.
With Han Feitong's facial recognition, the metal door was successfully unlocked and then automatically moved to the side.
Standing outside the door, Bai Mianmian finally saw the people who had come down earlier, but there were only four or five of them.
The people inside were also busy. Some took things out of their spatial buttons, while others registered the information of the items. After that, one person would put the registered items into a spatial button.
Those things were actually collected from the research institute's warehouse at Bai Mianmian's behest, but Bai Mianmian didn't recognize them.
The people who were busy inside suddenly heard a noise coming from the door and looked up.
Upon seeing Bai Mianmian standing outside the door with a cold expression, everyone, regardless of their inner thoughts, maintained their composure and continued with their work without changing their expressions.
However, before bowing his head, Pan Cheng, who had spoken to Bai Mianmian, explained to her what they were doing.
He said, "Madam, these are all the things you asked us to pack for you. We are organizing them, please wait a moment."
It's true that he was tidying up Bai Mianmian's things, and it's even more true that he wanted to know what those things were.
Because if they find something they need here, they might be able to take the opportunity to make a deal with her.
Bai Mianmian glanced at what they were taking; it was a pile of things she didn't recognize and couldn't figure out what they were used for.
At this moment, Han Feitong stood inside the door first and said to Bai Mianmian, "Madam, please come in this way."
Bai Mianmian, who was about to speak, was instantly interrupted by these words.
However, she wasn't annoyed. After glancing at Han Feitong, she entered the room without any pressure.
Because the mushroom spores had already entered the room, if someone could see those mushroom spores, they would find that the people inside had a lot of mushroom spores on them.
After Han Feitong and the others came in, they led her to sit down on a metal chair next to them and politely poured her a cup of hot water.
Bai Mianmian stared at the cup of hot water, but didn't touch it.
A moment later, Xin Xiao also came in, and the open door behind him was not closed. After he sat down opposite Bai Mianmian, the door remained open.
“Madam,” Xin Xiao said, looking at Bai Mianmian with a serious expression, “I would like to make a deal with you.”
Bai Mianmian glanced at him, but didn't rush to speak. She first took out a glass of lemon tea with ice from her spatial button, took a sip to quench her thirst, and then said, "Let's put everything else aside for now. Can one of you help me contact Jiang Ci?"
Upon hearing this, Xin Xiao and the others couldn't help but slightly change their expressions.
