Chapter 5 This planet is not only inhabited by humans.
Naga followed the sound, only to find himself at a dead end.
He switched to his power form and punched a hole in the rock, revealing a hidden world inside.
This place has been transformed into a vast habitat, where a giant monster is looking at him with a puzzled expression.
That iconic single horn immediately reminded Naga of which monster it was.
Naga stretched out his hand, and a golden light shot out.
The light enveloped Gakuma, slowly calming its emotions.
Once it calmed down, Gakuma's size shrank until it was the size of a pet mouse, at which point Naga withdrew the Cell Conversion Beam.
At the same time, the energy lamp on his chest began to flash violently.
"Ding-dong ding-dong~"
Naga stretched out his hand and said telepathically, "Will you come with me?"
Gakuma: "Monsters will never be slaves, unless... they're provided with food and lodging!"
"of course."
Gakuma climbed directly up his palm and onto his shoulder.
Before Naga left with Gakuma, he picked up a few stones to feed them.
Starving, Gakuma took the food and started gnawing on it. After finishing, he patted his belly and closed his eyes comfortably.
When Lin Yeming stepped out of the cave, he deactivated his transformation.
Soon, when the people in the mining area saw him suddenly appear, workers immediately surrounded him.
Some of them carried shovels, while others carried sticks.
Who are you?
"Everyone, don't be nervous. I'm just a tourist. I've heard that there are mythical beasts here that live by eating stones."
To gain their trust, he even took out his copy of the Taiping Customs and Records to show them.
Keep them calm first, then notify the Victory Team to come over.
Before leaving, he took pictures of everything he saw in the cave, believing that the Victory Team would be out soon.
Nozue found Megumi and said:
"Captain, Dr. Lin has sent a encrypted message."
"Your permissions are required to unlock."
"Didn't he go on vacation?"
"What would require encryption?"
Jujian Hui entered his own permissions, opened the message, and upon seeing it, he immediately issued an order.
"Everyone, assemble in the command room."
When the other team members arrived, they saw the photos on the big screen.
Zong Fang frowned, noticing something amiss: "Where is this?"
Daigo asked in confusion, "What a huge fossil! Has the archaeological team made a new discovery?"
"Something's not right. Even if you were a fossil, you couldn't be like this."
"This is simply a national treasure-level sculpture; it could not have been formed naturally."
"Horii is right, this is definitely not naturally formed, it was discovered by Dr. Lin."
"Dr. Lin?"
"Didn't he go on vacation?"
The crowd was buzzing with discussion.
At this moment, as if remembering something, Ye Rui quickly started typing on the keyboard.
Find the previously calculated record.
“Dr. Lin asked me to calculate the location before.”
"I think this place must be where the incident happened."
Nozue uses a computer to zoom in on a place called Kurarajima and collect and summarize news from that area in recent years.
He said, "This place doesn't have many resources. Its only advantage is that it produces a lot of stone, making it a favorite place for mining companies."
"There are more companies mining ore here than supermarkets, to exaggerate a bit."
"Even if we mine for a long time, the resources are not necessarily depleted."
"However, recently many companies have reported finding a lot of empty stomachs."
Xincheng: "Then why did Dr. Lin go to this place?"
Ye Rui said uncertainly, "Is it because of a book?"
Lina: "A book?"
Ye Rui: "Yes, it's a book called Taiping Fengtu Ji, which says that there are mythical beasts that produce stones there."
"This story is also circulating among the local residents."
"So, the reason there are so many stone mines here is because there are mythical beasts that can produce stones?"
"Then what does he eat?"
Daigo raised a subtle question.
Everyone's minds went blank.
Once she realized what was happening, Megumi Kijima immediately gave the order.
"The Victory Team is dispatched. Send the Victory Flying Swallow II, equipped with weapons, over there."
"I will report the rest to the director."
"Zongfang, you'll be in charge of leading the team."
"Ye Rui, analyze Dr. Lin's location and send it to the computer on the Victory Flying Swallow."
The members of the Victory Team accepted the order and went out.
Kijima Megumi slowly sat down, but a faint worry lingered in her heart.
The legends of the past have become reality.
"That's the situation with the director."
"Director?"
After a long silence on the other end of the communicator, a voice finally came through: "I understand."
"Protect Dr. Lin Yeming at all costs."
Kijima was puzzled; this order was quite serious: "This..."
Sawai didn't answer directly, but smiled and said, "Captain Kijima, I wonder how you understand the saying 'The earth is receptive, and a gentleman carries the world with virtue'?"
"Director..."
"Captain Megumi, this world is not only inhabited by humans."
After saying that, Sawai hung up the communicator.
He leaned back in his chair and murmured to himself, "Lin Yeming, it was definitely the right decision to bring you here."
Megumi Kijima was completely confused by what Director Sawai had said, but she still made a note of what she said.
However, she hesitated when given the order.
Protect Lin Yeming at all costs.
She didn't understand, but as a soldier, she had to accept it.
Trusting her subordinates, she knew that if this order were issued, it would likely result in casualties for the Victory Team.
She thought for a moment, then picked up the communicator and said, "When you get to the scene, protect Dr. Lin first."
"Roger that!"
On the other side, Lin Yeming was talking with the workers.
The construction site is not yet officially being mined. When the foreman heard that Lin Yeming had come to inquire about the divine beast, they brought him to the camp.
Most of these workers are locals, and they know the legends of their hometown very well.
Lin Yeming took out his notebook and pen, intending to take notes while asking questions.
"Uncle, what's the deal with this mythical beast that eats stones?"
Upon seeing Lin Yeming's posture, the worker immediately realized that the other party might broadcast what he said on television. He instantly perked up, sat up straight, and said, "Our area was originally famous for its abundant stones, which look like fossils."
“Those stones could easily fetch a high price.”
"Has no one tested the composition of those stones?"
"Relevant departments have conducted tests, but the results show that it is the same as ordinary stones."
"So, all those stones were sold."
"Finally, someone discovered that the area was rich in minerals and started mining nearby."
"However, it has been almost completely mined out in recent years."
"Oh, right."
"It is said that the mythical beast here is called Gakuma."
"We don't know the specific details about what it looks like."
At that moment, a worker exclaimed, "Look, what's that?"
Upon hearing this, everyone looked over and saw two black dots rapidly enlarging in the sky.
"It's an airplane!"
"The Victory Team has arrived."
"Quickly notify the captain..."
