I am weak and friendly

Chapter 385 What's causing this trouble?

The Benchmark Reality Committee, in its intelligent hall, was completely silent.

An unspeakable silence and heaviness enveloped the entire hall.

No one knows why, even though they had finally succeeded in breaking through, they still didn't succeed.

Their theories, experiments, and simulations are all fine.

But when they actually entered another world and began the real plan, everything was different from the experiment.

It's like the world on the other side isn't the world they've been familiar with and have already exploited many times, but a completely different "other world".

If only one vehicle malfunctions, it could be because that vehicle was involved in an accident.

But this applies to both cars.

What should we do now?
Has this invasion failed?
Should we return it now?
All eyes were on Boss Tang.

Mr. Tang stared at the screen, remaining silent.

After a moment, he said, “We have concentrated all our resources, manpower, and materials to organize this operation. We have considered all possible scenarios and simulated various difficulties beforehand. Now we are ready to go. No matter what unexpected difficulties or sudden mistakes we encounter, nothing can stop us. Because we will not have a second chance, and no one will give us a second chance.”

"Encountering some temporary difficulties is nothing to be afraid of; as long as we find a way to solve them, everything will be fine." He paused, then added, "Order all squads to begin operations!"

"Yes! All squads, begin operations immediately!"

The screen was divided into grids, and the remaining two hundred-plus teams began to move.

Boss Tang silently watched the large screen, observing everyone take action.

More than two hundred squads, each with about a hundred people, make up more than 20,000 elite troops. For the Benchmark Reality Committee, this is already the culmination of all its strength.

If it fails, it will be a major blow.

Everyone else was looking at Boss Tang, at his straight back in his white suit, wondering what they were thinking.

Just then, a soft "beep" sounded, and the statistics on the big screen finally flickered.

On the otherwise empty measuring bar, a thin green line appeared, as thin as a hair.

This means... the extraction was successful?

Everyone was stunned for a moment, then suddenly turned their heads to look at Boss Tang.

A barely perceptible smile appeared on Boss Tang's face, as if he had everything under control.

A frenzied cheer rang in his ears:
"It's starting! It's finally starting!"

"The boss is mighty!"

"May the boss be blessed!"

In the corner, Young Master Tang looked at his father with admiration. This was the man who could always make the right decisions and lead them in the right direction. No matter what difficulties they faced, they would crumble on their own in the face of his will.

The adoring gaze from his son seemed to make this special father appear even more imposing.

After letting everyone cheer for a moment, Boss Tang turned around and ordered, "Now is not the time to cheer. It seems that our equipment is not working for some people. Check what the reason is."

In reality, Mr. Tang's heart is not as calm as he appears on the surface, after all, his goal is not to harvest a portion of the other party's territory.

"Yes, we are already checking," someone replied.

Young Master Tang looked up at the big screen, then suddenly frowned and waved to someone behind him.

Captain Li, who had been standing not far behind him, stepped forward, bowed, and placed a laptop in front of him with both hands.

Young Master Tang immediately started typing on his notebook.

After a moment, he said, "I think I've figured out the reason."

Mr. Tang was staring blankly at the progress bar in the upper right corner of the screen.

The progress bar is growing at an increasingly faster rate, indicating that more and more people are being extracted and exploited.

He extended a finger and tapped it lightly on the table, seemingly lost in thought. Upon hearing this, he suddenly turned his head.

“I just took a look at this FOFU.” Young Master Tang seemed a little awkward when he mentioned FOFU, but he quickly regained his composure. “I think this FOFU can help us find the answer to our problem.”

"If we process and transform the negative entropy distribution map of the other world..." Young Master Tang explained while his hands moved rapidly. On the huge screen, the negative entropy distribution map displayed by FOFU was constantly switching views and colors, as if something was being filtered out layer by layer.

"You'll discover... this is what's hidden beneath the negative entropy distribution map of the other world." Young Master Tang pressed the Enter key one last time.

On the big screen was a map of the other world, and a "tentacle monster" perched on it.

Yes, nothing can describe what's on the screen except for "tentacle crown".

It was like a giant, starfish-like or octopus-like creature, but of course, it had far more tentacles than an octopus. It had countless tentacles that covered the entire city, constantly swaying, creating an indescribable sense of terror.

Just looking at this thing gives one a strange sense of unease.

“I think that the other side of the world may have also developed some kind of device that can protect against our extraction.” Young Master Tang pointed to the large screen and said, “This is its coverage area. I don’t know how it works, but it seems that it can protect certain people.”

Upon seeing the "tentacle monster" looming on the map, Boss Tang's pupils suddenly contracted, as if he had seen something terrifying.

But he quickly masked his expression and asked, "Oh, so if we destroy this device, will we be able to break this defensive force?"

"Theoretically, that should be the case. Based on its coverage area, it should be in the center of this giant octopus, if we calculate the coordinates..."

While dealing with the situation, Young Master Tang explained, then frowned and said, "This thing is moving... Hmm, the other party is very clever, knowing not to put things in a fixed place... But as long as we track its route..."

As they were talking, the "octopus" on the big screen suddenly disappeared.

The "octopus" that originally intersected at a single point suddenly transformed into strange, crisscrossing interference fringes.

It was as if it had suddenly lost its "midpoint." Young Master Tang's fingers paused.

This was somewhat unexpected.

What's the situation?
But he forced himself to remain calm, telling himself not to panic.

"It seems it's realized we've tracked it down and has gone into hiding," he said. "But that's alright, as long as we compare its previous movement trajectory with the traffic video from the other side..."

Young Master Tang started banging away again.

For him, infiltrating various systems in the other world was already second nature and a piece of cake.

Boss Tang looked at Young Master Tang with satisfaction.

My son has finally learned to share the burden with me.

Moreover, he finally developed the composure to remain calm even when Mount Tai collapses.

It seems that the conflict with his counterpart last time helped him grow.

"Okay, we've found it!"

With a reserved smile, Young Master Tang pressed the Enter key.

"Soon, we'll find out exactly what's stopping us."

Everyone looked up at the big screen.

Screen switching.

A speeding vehicle appeared in front of them.

Upon seeing the car, everyone present looked puzzled, then exclaimed in surprise as they turned to look at Young Master Tang.

Young Master Tang stared at the large screen, his face flushed red, then slowly turned pale, and finally ashen.

"It seems... it's not something, but someone," said Boss Tang.

At this moment, as he looked at the big screen, his feelings were actually the same as Young Master Tang's.

It was filled with doubt.

why?
Why him again?

why?
How did he do that?
as well as……

The bigger problem:
"Where is he now?"

A strong sense of unease spread through Mr. Tang's heart and throughout the entire command hall.

Everyone looked at each other, bewildered and uneasy.

Young Master Tang's moment of glory has, in the blink of an eye, become everyone's darkest moment.

That person always has this kind of power.

"Okay, I'm going to take a break," said Boss Tang. "Find him before I get back."

He got up and walked towards the lounge on the side.

After he closed the door, he heard a voice behind him.

"You're hiding something from me," the voice said.

“You’ve always been by my side, how could I possibly hide anything from you?” Mr. Tang said, walking to the window, leaning on the windowsill, and turning back.

There was nothing behind him.

But an invisible pressure is constantly spreading in the air.

"Don't forget, your power was given to you by me, and I can take it back, including everything I gave you."

“You’ve said it countless times,” Boss Tang said. “Don’t worry, to you I’m just an ordinary person, an ant. What could I possibly have to deceive you?”

The voice did not reply, and the heavy pressure in the air slowly dissipated.

……

The luxurious limousine drifted and drove into the alley.

Touchpoint Connect's warehouse was clearly in sight, but in that instant, Tang Yiping saw a dark shadow flash before his eyes.

Tang Yiping turned around and saw a tricycle parked at the entrance of the alley. A lame man was sitting on the tricycle, talking to him.

"what did he say?"

"Who?" Fan Zhihong was taken aback.

“He said, don’t go,” Lux said.

Tang Yiping was stunned. He turned to look at the back window, but the figure had already been blocked by the corner wall and disappeared.

For a moment, Tang Yiping was filled with doubt.

Why is that lame guy who once saved Yu Mo here?

Why did he tell himself "don't go"?
Who is he?
Tang Yiping was torn between asking Fan Zhihong to go back and find out the truth, but the door to the warehouse ahead had already opened, and more than a dozen people poured out.

Lola was among them, crunching away at a bag of snacks.

“Li Ke Bolen, why are you so late?” she asked.
