The armed fighter jets climbed to an altitude of 1,000 meters and went to the location where the demonic data was generated.

Chen Feng immediately turned his gaze to the giant beast's nest below, but what he saw was not the dark brown giant beast's nest, but a withered black biological structure whose surface was soaked with (demon corruption liquid).

The blood vessels that were originally used to transport the energy of the colossal beasts in the behemoth's lair are now entangled with chains of scarlet runes.

The surrounding space is filled with demonic power that can cause organisms to mutate and become deformed.

"Chen Feng, the strange beasts come from these places."

As Wu Yingguang, who was piloting the armed fighter jet, explained, he brought up the terrain radar.

The holographic projection of the terrain radar suddenly unfolded in front of Chen Feng's seat, and the light blue three-dimensional outline almost completely depicted the entire alien beast's nest. The sheer size of it made Chen Feng gasp.

However, what puzzled Chen Feng the most was a kind of energy stake made of demon skulls and giant beast bone spikes. There were dozens of them, and each stake was wrapped with scarlet rune chains, binding "defective" alien beasts to the demon energy stakes.

And on the energy map of the holographic projection.

Chen Feng also saw the energy inside the alien beast rapidly flowing out of the rune chain and into the demon energy pile.

"Base TN71 reported the existence of alien beasts several months ago. They have been confirmed to be the offspring of behemoths tamed by demons, but behemoths usually destroy their own clan's lair when the demons launch an attack, unless the demons are so powerful that they have no time to react," Wu Yingguang said coldly.

"Then what about these demonic energy pillars?" Chen Feng asked.

"The Demon Energy Pole uses defective alien beasts to provide beast power to powerful alien beast embryos, thereby enhancing the alien beasts' abilities. The ferocious alien beasts we see are cultivated in this way."

"Wait, let me ask an important question first. We're not going to get off later, are we?" Zhao Ye asked lazily from the back seat.

"No need. I will use the fighter jet's analysis system to collect data on the alien beast's lair and bring it back to TN71 base to compare with past alien beast data," Su Wan replied.

"That's good, I'll take a nap first~~" Zhao Ye closed his eyes, looking drowsy.

Su Wan glanced back at Zhao Ye, a smile playing on her lips: "You look like a jerk."

"So, what kind of demonic energy fluctuations were detected by the outpost personnel?" Chen Feng asked.

Su Wan's fingertips slid rapidly across the onboard screen, which displayed a dense array of code as she began to analyze the collected map of the alien beast's lair.

Soon, the translation results gradually settled, and rows of data about the alien beast nests appeared in the center of the screen...

Seeing this, Su Wan breathed a sigh of relief.

The analysis results were then projected onto the holographic projection in front of Chen Feng.

[The structural integrity of the alien beast's lair: 91.3%, with no signs of continuous encroachment or damage; the previously detected intense energy fluctuations were caused by strong energy spillover and spatial disturbances resulting from the arrival of demonic forces and their adaptation to the lair's ecosystem.]

......

Just as the five finished analyzing the alien beast's lair and were preparing to return to TN71 base.

A sudden, sharp warning sound rang out in the cockpit.

It instantly shattered the slightly relaxed atmosphere.

[TN71 Base Command Center calling Falcon 7 fighter jet, please respond... Repeat, TN71 Base Command Center calling Falcon 7 fighter jet, emergency order, priority!]

The cold, synthesized electronic voice echoed inside the armed fighter jet.

Wu Yingguang's expression turned serious, and he immediately pressed the communication response button.

"Falcon 7 received. Data collection of the alien beast's nest has been completed. Preparing to return. Please provide instructions."

Chen Feng opened his eyes at that moment, paying attention to the base command center that had been called at just the right time.

The voice from the base command center sounded distinctly grave over the communicator:

[Falcon 7, Emergency Mission Change: The base's global monitoring system detected an encrypted military distress beacon signal one minute ago. The signal source is located 17 kilometers west of your current flight path, at coordinates [N33.72, E114.59]. The signal characteristics match those of Reconnaissance Team 13, dispatched by Base TN71 three weeks ago. This team was previously reported missing.]

[The signal strength is weak and continuously attenuating, accompanied by high-density demonic energy disturbances. Preliminary assessment indicates an extremely high danger level at the signal's origin. You are hereby ordered to immediately change course and proceed to the target location... If the area is confirmed to be completely controlled by demonic forces, immediately report and await reinforcements. Do not venture further alone.]

[Command confirmed. Do you wish to execute?]

The members of Red Fox fell silent for a moment.

Chen Feng stared at the blurry, broken mountains in the holographic projection and tapped his fingertips on the armrest of his seat.

Among the demonic systems Chen Feng was familiar with, there were indeed many technologies capable of reverse-engineering various human information technologies. And in this primary plane, the possibility of such infiltration technology existing was even greater than on Earth.

Zhao Yeye rubbed her face, completely wide awake: "Well, I can't sleep now. Looks like I'll have to face another tough battle before I head back."

"The reconnaissance team has been out of contact for three weeks. It's probably not a coincidence that the distress signal was triggered at this time," Chen Feng wondered.

Su Wan's fingertips slid rapidly across the onboard panel, and a dense stream of data instantly covered the holographic projection.

She frowned slightly, but spoke very quickly.

"Signal spectrum analysis complete. It is indeed the military encrypted signal beacon of Squad 13—but there are anomalies."

"What's wrong?" Chen Feng immediately asked.

"The beacon is being triggered incorrectly." Su Wan pulled up the signal fluctuation curve, which was covered with irregular spikes on the faint green line. "Military beacons are either manually triggered by team members or activated as an emergency response after vital signs disappear. But this curve... looks like it was forcibly activated by external interference, and the signal carrier contains a faint demonic energy frequency band, as if it has been 'contaminated'."

Wu Yingguang tightened his grip on the control lever.

"So you mean this might be a trap?" Zhao Ye asked.

Su Wan nodded and pulled up the mission file for Squad 13: "The probability is over 70%."

"Three weeks ago, their mission was to scout the border demons' activity. The last coordinates they transmitted before losing contact were only five kilometers away from the current signal source. Normally, if anyone in the team were still alive, they should have triggered the beacon in the early stages of losing contact, instead of waiting until now."

"So, what do we do now?" Zhao Ye narrowed his eyes. "The demons might be using Squad 13's beacon as bait, waiting for us to come knocking."

"Execute the order, but adjust the plan—the fighter jets will maintain high-altitude approach and scan the entire area with long-range reconnaissance radar, while the Soviet Union will simultaneously analyze the distribution of demonic energy in the region," Wu Yingguang said in a deep voice.

Su Wan sighed.

"Okay, I understand..."
