Long Yuanxiang, who was closest to the entrance to the back room, strode in without hesitation.

Nagumo Masaru and Ayanokouji Kiyotaka followed closely behind without saying a word.

Su Wei and Ichinose Honami, having arrived late by school bus, had been standing at the back of the line.

At this moment, it was only natural that they, along with Koro-sensei, became the last group of people in the expedition team responsible for bringing up the rear, and crossed the light barrier.

......

As the viscous, disorienting feeling that is unique to the transition between worlds dissipates.

Su Wei opened his eyes and found that although the surrounding environment was not as clean and bright as the outside of the White House base, it was by no means gloomy or terrifying.

Thick gray soundproof mats were laid underfoot, and the surrounding walls were different from the simple sheet metal of ordinary construction sites. They were prefabricated modular units, similar to those in modern factories, all assembled with bolts.

As they came in.

The group of Gojo Satoru, who had arrived earlier, had already formed a circle in an open space ahead, seemingly observing something.

Without hesitation, Honami Ichinose raised her hand and tapped the black ball watch.

A flash of light, and the necessary equipment was quickly configured.

As soon as she got into the zone, she keenly caught a strange sound, turned to Koro-sensei and said:

"Koro-sensei... I think I heard some faint noises."

Did you hear that?

Koro-sensei's face turned a serious, deep purple, his tentacles tensed slightly, and he nodded:

"Yes, I did hear it."

"It's a sound like the meshing and grinding of heavy mechanical gears... although it's still uncertain whether it's the sound of the 'special tool' that the White House Director mentioned earlier, or an unknown enemy lurking in the back room."

"In short, everyone should be on high alert for combat."

In just a few short seconds, the two of them were exchanging information back and forth.

Su Wei had already raised his hand and turned on the holographic radar panel of the [controller].

On the 3D scan, there were dense green dots around them, representing their fellow travelers.

Suddenly, several red, hostile dots appeared scattered around!

Su Wei raised an eyebrow and casually tapped the nearest red dot to view the details.

"drop--"

[Target: A mechanical life form within a mobile phone]

[Value: 0 points]

[Characteristics: Primitive mechanical life forms born from the energy scattered by the AllSpark forcibly infused into basic metallic creations. Lacking the moral constraints of the Matrix and the guidance of its underlying code, their minds are in a primal, chaotic state, driven only by pure destructive urges. Their behavioral patterns are highly consistent with the Decepticons, and they even exhibit similar ferocious visual characteristics.]

[As a hastily produced, substandard product, its armor and attack power are extremely low. Unless you deliberately lie down and it crawls into your unprotected, vulnerable private parts to strangle you... this thing poses virtually no threat to humans.]

Koro-sensei hesitated because he was already close by, and leaned closer to see the information on the screen.

The details of several red dots all describe these strange entities called "mechanical lifeforms".

He scratched his smooth head in surprise and exclaimed:

"Hehehe... There's even a monster worth zero points..."

"However, what surprised me even more was that this 'Spark Source' could actually create mechanical life forms with independent consciousness out of thin air... and not just simple AI?"

Morishita Ran, who had been following Su Wei closely but habitually maintained a blank expression and remained mostly silent, suddenly spoke up quietly after hearing Koro-sensei's sigh:

"Since these mechanical lifeforms are concentrated around this outpost built in the White House, and they are mutated from energy radiation..."

"Then, this might be related to what that White House director said earlier."

Morishita Ran looked at Su Wei: "That thing called the Fire Seed Source is very likely... the core item that the person just mentioned that 'absolutely cannot be taken away'?"

Su Wei thought about it for a moment, but didn't show much surprise.

He simply turned off the controller panel and said in a flat tone:

"Perhaps."

"We still need to find those who arrived earlier than us and have already investigated the situation to ask about the specifics."

Honami Ichinose stood to the side.

Turning to look at Su Wei, whose words were still somewhat incoherent, a sense of doubt welled up in her heart.

Who is he talking to, senior?

Seeing that Su Wei had already walked towards the place where the crowd had gathered with Koro-sensei, Ichinose had no choice but to temporarily suppress the subtle confusion in his heart and follow after them.

Hearing footsteps, Sakayanagi Arisu turned to look at them.

"You've come at the perfect time."

“We just used the item catalog to scan all the items that Ayanokoji Atsuomi had left here.”

"Apart from consumables like the Golden Apple and MC Milk that can restore status."
