Oh no! I'm surrounded by the main characters!

"You didn't secretly go on an adventure somewhere behind our backs, did you?"

Miao Tiaojun, standing nearby, handed over a bottle of mineral water and asked with equal curiosity,

The next moment, his eyes narrowed slightly, leaving only a small slit as he stared suspiciously at Luo Chuan.

"Cough cough."

Luo Chuan nearly choked upon hearing this. Although he was somewhat shocked by the chubby boy's accurate guess, he still explained without batting an eye.

"Nothing much, I just went to another city to help a friend."

"Really?"

Huo Linfei and Miao Tiaojun craned their necks to take a look at Luo Chuan.

"Of course, do you think I'm the kind of person who wouldn't share good things with my brothers?"

As Luo Chuan spoke confidently, he flicked his wrist.

With a thud, he threw the basketball in his hand, sending it through a perfect arc, and it landed precisely in the basket.

"Wow! Brother Chuan, your shot is so accurate! Who can beat you?"

Watching Luo Chuan's perfect shot, Huo Linfei couldn't help but gape in astonishment.

"Ha ha!"

Seeing Huo Linfei's astonished expression, Luo Chuan, who had successfully shown off in front of his brother, couldn't help but burst into laughter.

After all, with his current physical attributes, he could easily withstand a mutant beast.

Let alone using it for basketball, it's simply...

So light and loose.

Then, Luo Chuan lightly patted Huo Linfei's shoulder, sighed, and said earnestly,

"Ah Fei, you should practice cooking more."

"Depend on!"

Seeing Luo Chuan in this state, Huo Linfei couldn't accept it and let out a wail.

After a brief playful exchange, the two found a shady spot under a tree and sat down.

Huo Linfei took a bottle of mineral water from Miao Tiaojun and drank it all in one gulp. He then sighed softly.

"Hey, Chuan-ge! I really envy you being able to go on adventures everywhere."

Huo Linfei sighed, scratching his head with a hint of envy.

"Haha, don't be discouraged, you'll have your own adventures too."

Luo Chuan smiled and comforted him, while glancing at Huo Linfei.

"Really, Brother Chuan?"

Hearing Luo Chuan's comforting words, Huo Linfei's dejected expression changed to one full of fighting spirit.

"I knew it, there would be an extraordinary adventure in my life, I..."

Seeing Huo Linfei's ever-changing expression, Luo Chuan abruptly interrupted his endless boasting.

Having known Huo Linfei for so long, he is the only protagonist whose system has never responded.

"The Super Beast Armed storyline hasn't even started yet... Oh well, that's fine too."

Perhaps because the Super Beast Armed storyline hasn't started yet, the system hasn't given Huo Linfei any new missions.

Seeing his good brother eagerly anticipating embarking on an unknown adventure, Luo Chuan couldn't help but silently mourn for him for a second.

After all, once the Super Beast Armed storyline begins, what awaits Huo Linfei is a journey of being beaten up for a full 100,000 years.

Furthermore, the power system of the Super Beast Armed Forces is arguably the strongest among the power systems he has encountered in various storylines so far.

The fact that they frequently use black holes and white holes as units of measurement demonstrates the immense power of the characters involved.

Not to mention the numerous numerical monsters that were practically random fills in,

Besides the numerical oddities, there are also quite a few oddities in terms of mechanics.

Slim Jun, who can reverse time multiple times with almost no effort,

If you lose, you'll be marked as Feng Yi'er; if you win, the opponent will mumble a few lines and forcibly boost your combat power as Feng Yao...

Luo Chuan thought about it carefully and realized that perhaps the fact that the Super Beast Warriors storyline hadn't started yet was actually good news for him.

Even though the story has started now, aside from completing quests from Huo Linfei, it seems I can't really get involved in the plot.

Even if a mission to destroy Hades were to appear, I might not be able to complete it.

Thinking of this, Luo Chuan silently patted Huo Linfei on the shoulder.

Ah Fei, let's wait until I've leveled up a bit before I come find you.

"I wonder if my current strength, when converted to the past, would be a black hole."

Luo Chuan stroked his chin.

Ding--

The next moment, a sudden cell phone ringtone came from my pocket.

Luo Chuan picked up his phone, glanced at it, and then answered the call.

"Hey, Meizhen, what's wrong?"

The next moment, Meizhen's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Luo Chuan, where are you now?"

Hearing the genuine tone in Mei Zhen's voice on the phone, Luo Chuan subconsciously sensed that something was amiss.

And unlike Meizhen's usual calm voice, Meizhen seemed unusually anxious today.

"I'm at school. What's wrong? What happened?"

Luo Chuan also sensed something was wrong and asked in a deep voice.

On the other side of the city at this moment,

Mei Zhen was sitting on the back of a motorcycle, holding a laptop in her hands, anxiously watching the abnormal fluctuations of alien energy coming from the computer screen.

"There are many strange energy fluctuations at the North City Wharf. It should be that the Shadow Protectors have reappeared."

Meizhen typed on the keyboard while contacting Luochuan via communicator.

"The North City Wharf? It's a bit of a distance from there. As for Xin Nan and the others, they have the Light Shadow Steed, so they should be able to get there soon."

Hearing Meizhen's words, Luo Chuan asked with some confusion,

After all, whether it's the light and shadow steeds of Xin Nan and others, or the satellite transmission system in the ERP research lab, they are both much faster than getting there directly.

"Xin Nan is right beside me, but he..."

Meizhen paused for a moment before speaking with difficulty.

"But he can't summon the armor right now."

"Can't summon the armor? Why?"

Faced with Meizhen's explanation, Luo Chuan couldn't help but look astonished.

"I don't know what's going on, but the system says the satellite can't detect the light and shadow energy, so it can't remotely transmit the energy to Xin Nan and the others to transform."

Not only Xin Nan, but Dong Shan Bei Miao and the others are in the same situation.

"Can't detect light and shadow energy?"

Luo Chuan muttered to himself.

The current armor transformation process involves remotely requesting fusion authorization via a summoning device, then having the energy extracted from the light and shadow stones in the ERP research lab and transmitted to a satellite, which then remotely transmits the energy to the user for transformation.

There is only one explanation for why light and shadow energy cannot be detected now.

"Is there a problem with the Light and Shadow Stone?"

Chapter 84 Dragon Cloud Shaking Wings

"do not know."

Mei Zhen shook her head, her face pale.

"The laboratory's remote monitoring system has also been manually turned off, and I can no longer detect what's happening inside the laboratory."

As she spoke, Meizhen glanced at the scenery rushing past at high speed, then looked ahead at Li Xinnan, who was driving a motorcycle.

"Xinnan, how much longer until we get to the lab?"

Li Xinnan turned the lever all the way, and the motorcycle roared to life.

"Ten minutes left."

"Ten minutes..."

Meizhen nodded upon hearing this, then pressed the communicator on her ear again.
