At the critical moment, a figure rushed forward. In an instant, the deadly lightsaber was tightly wrapped by countless thread-like objects as thin as hair.
In the next moment, the entire lightsaber was abruptly cut into countless pieces!
The broken pieces of the sword fell to the ground. Fortunately, the experimental personnel were not harmed.
At the same time, those mysterious steel wires were retracted and quietly shrunk into a man's sleeve.
Lin Jue looked dazed, rubbed his eyes, and mumbled, "Who is that? So powerful. I didn't even see what happened, and the crisis is already resolved?"
"It's all because of your meddling hands that this happened!"
Willow was furious and raised her fist to hit Lin Jue's back.
"Ouch!" Lin Jue let out a scream and flew out like a kite with a broken string, falling heavily to the ground.
He got up in a sorry state, looked up, and saw a figure walking slowly and finally stopping in front of him.
"Friend, are you okay?"
A gentle voice full of concern reached his ears. Lin Jue took a closer look and found that the person speaking was the man in front of him.
The man had black hair. He was over 1.8 meters tall, and his tall and straight figure gave him an imposing demeanor.
His face was handsome, like a work of art carefully carved by a sculptor. His eyebrows were thick and shapely, and under them were a pair of deep and sharp eyes.
He extended his hand to help Lin Jue up and asked about his condition with concern.
"Hehe, I'm fine. I'm tough. But this woman is really not to be messed with!" Lin Jue shook his head with a bitter smile and said with lingering fear.
At this time, Mr. Anyang nodded with a smile, showing his understanding. And Willow quickly walked towards Anyang and said respectfully, "Mr. Anyang, welcome back to the base!"
Then, Chen Tianhua also came over and said happily, "Brother Anyang, you're finally back." After that, he casually dragged Lin Jue, who was still in a daze, to his side.
"Ah?" Lin Jue looked at Willow in surprise and said in disbelief, "No way. When did you have such a gentle attitude?" He widened his eyes as if he had seen something incredible.
Willow was so angry that she glared at Lin Jue and scolded, "Shut your mouth! The person standing in front of you is Mr. Anyang, one of the top six combat forces in our base! You caused a big mess. You should be grateful that he saved your life!"
When Anyang heard the conversation between the two, he looked at Lin Jue curiously and asked in confusion, "This brother looks unfamiliar. Willow, who is he?"
Willow let out a helpless sigh and said irritably, "Alas, his name is Lin Jue. Xiaotong picked him up outside. If it weren't for the fragment's connection to him, he would have been killed already!"
When Lin Jue heard this, he was not convinced. He straightened up and retorted confidently, "Hey! I'm the so-called perfect crystal carrier you mentioned. This fragment is still hanging around my neck!" As he spoke, he deliberately lifted the fragment hanging around his neck and waved it in front of everyone, looking very arrogant.
When Anyang saw this, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. He immediately became interested in Lin Jue and asked, "Oh? A crystal fragment? You can keep it safe?" "Hehe, brother, let me tell you. Don't look at me as a newcomer, but I can..."
Willow grabbed Lin Jue's ear and said, "Mr. Anyang, you can go about your business first. Don't let this kid cause you any more trouble!"
Lin Jue: "..."
"Okay, I'll go see Selinda first. I'll talk to this brother when I have time." After saying that, Anyang walked towards the interior of the experimental base.
"What a mysterious man. Are all the agents in your base so reserved?" Lin Jue asked curiously.
"Stop causing trouble!" Willow gave him an annoyed look.
...
"Sorry, I went to the wrong room!" A burly man who was nearly two meters tall scratched his head and walked out of a laboratory. He looked around apologetically, then picked up the communication device in his hand and asked awkwardly, "I'm sorry, Selinda. I got lost again. You know, I rarely work in the Yunhai Base, so I'm not familiar with it here." This person was Det, one of the six major combat forces in the base. He was burly and muscular, and his dark skin made him look like a huge mountain that would never fall.
At this time, Anyang happened to come over. He gently patted the man on the shoulder, smiled, took the communication device from his hand, and replied, "It doesn't matter, Selinda. Don't worry. I'll take him there." After that, Anyang gave Det a friendly look to comfort and show his understanding.
Det nodded gratefully and showed a relieved smile on his face. Just then, Selinda's gentle voice came from the communicator, "You two are here. Then go directly to Hall No. 2 and wait for us!"
After hearing the instruction, Anyang and Det walked towards Hall No. 2 together. Along the way, they chatted and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
"Anyang, long time no see!" Det smiled enthusiastically, his eyes shining with excitement.
"Haha, the same to you, Det! The last time we met was in Nanyang. It's been a year already!" Anyang replied with emotion.
"Yeah, time really flies." Det sighed with emotion, and his simple smile revealed his helplessness about the passage of time.
As the two talked and laughed, they unknowingly arrived at the spacious and bright Hall No. 2. They found a place to sit down and quietly waited for the others.
After a while, Selinda and the others came from the passage.
"Hehe, Anyang, Det! I'm so happy to see you!" William Skitt walked over cheerfully and shook hands tightly with the two.
"Long time no see, William!" The two replied in unison.
"Det, you look even stronger!" Irina playfully patted Det's thick arm.
"Hehe, I'm still the same. I haven't received any important tasks in the past few months and have had a long rest." Det showed his simple smile.
"Everyone is back this time. Is there something important?" Anyang asked Selinda doubtfully.
"Everyone, please follow me!" Selinda greeted everyone warmly and led them towards Mr. T's room.
