Chapter 1267: Transformation

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Wei Kang and others had already accepted, albeit reluctantly, that the loud noise was from the earthquake. It may be a small earthquake with some thunder and heavy rain. However, after hearing the second loud noise, no one could stay calm. What earthquake made sounds at such regular intervals and pitches? The direction and volume of the sounds were almost the same. It did not sound natural.

“This… What is going on here? Still an earthquake?”

They looked at each other suspiciously.

Wei Kang was also speechless.

The expedition team consisted of individuals with high academic qualifications. Their IQs may not be much higher than those of ordinary people, but they were unlikely to be lower. However, they had lived in their ivory towers for some time and did not have much experience. With time, they would get better.

“It’s not an earthquake.” Zhang Zian simply pointed out the situation. “I think it is Peter Lee and his team, who are blowing something up with explosives.”

“Dynamite?”

Much like being smashed with a thin layer of window paper, everyone’s faces changed dramatically. They started sweating profusely despite the cool night wind.

Taking into account the various behaviors of Peter Lee and his team, the explanation of explosives was reasonable.

The expedition team had not brushed shoulders with death. In fact, they had always been with the god of death!

“What? Are they a group of terrorists?” Xiao Tianyu obviously could not take what was happening.

Gao Ke scolded him. “Terrorists bomb big cities. Why would they do so in the barren desert?”

“Stop arguing! At this juncture, the both of you still want to argue!” Wei Kang was angry and scared. He stomped his feet and stopped the two men from bickering.

He wiped his cold sweat with his sleeves and said, “Now, go back to the camp and pack up. Let’s get out of here.”

“We are not going to wait for them?” He He suddenly spoke up. Her thin body looked especially weak at night.

“We won’t wait for them! They are wolves hiding under sheepskins! They must have come to the Devil’s Sea with an ulterior motive, doing things that could not be made known. If we wait for them to come out, they may kill us!” Wei Kang said with anger.

“Yes! Let’s go first and quickly leave the desert for home. Don’t wait for Peter Lee and his team!” Xiao Tianyu echoed. He had long been looking forward to leaving.

Gao Ke saw that He He was standing there in a daze. He thought that she hadn’t woken up yet, and he reached out and tried to pull her. However, she avoided his touch.

“You guys can go. I want to stay behind by myself.” Her pitch was low, and her tone was quiet.

“What?”

Everyone else was stunned and thought they’d gotten it wrong.

Usually, He He was the first person to retreat. She’d regretted the first night after she entered the desert. She’d cried and wanted to go home. The others had to pacify her before she was persuaded to continue with the journey. Now, she was choosing to stay and not leave. Had something happened to her?

He He looked up at the night sky, extended out her hands as if to hug the stars, and murmured, “Don’t you feel it? This…rich and pure cosmic energy…”

When the noise was caused by the explosion, everyone had merely been shocked and scared. There had been a sense of powerlessness. But now that they heard He He’s words, which mirrored what Peter Lee preached, fear was entrenched in their hearts.

“Xiao He… You… What’s wrong with you? Don’t scare us!”

The powerful Gao Ke started retreating from He He, who was physically much weaker than him. He looked at her, re-examining her as if he did not know her.

He He chuckled and pushed her hair behind her ears. Such an action would usually charm a few young lads. However, at this current moment, she came across as a female ghost.

“I didn’t try to scare you. I just found a new direction in life and felt more fulfilled than ever before.” She smiled and looked at Wei Kang. “Oh, sorry, Teacher Wei, thank you for your long-term care, but I am not suited to scientific research. You realized this, didn’t you? You are not young anymore, and you still have to do research and look after us. For all the troubles I gave you, I am so sorry… After you return home, can you cancel my student status? The reason is…too much absenteeism on my part? As for my parents… I will find a way to explain it to them, so you don’t have to worry about it.”

Since Zhang Zian had first met He He in Wei Kang’s office, she had never been that polite. People did change with time, and it was difficult to tell.

People changed, but the speed of He He’s transformation was too…amazing and scary. In addition, this series of changes had happened under everyone’s noses.

Over the past two days, she had been quiet and calm, and she’d often had a thoughtful look on her face. Everyone thought that the journey had made her grow up…

It seemed that she had indeed grown up. She was so successful that perhaps she had gone somewhat off on a tangent.

“Xiao He, how come you… How did it become like this? What happened to you? What are the difficulties? I can try to help you solve them…” Wei Kang was distraught. He was literally begging her to accept his help.

“I am good. In fact, I have never been so good, and it really is not that difficult… Oh, if you can, leave me a car, for I also want to follow Peter Lee and enter the Devil’s Sea. The energy inside must be more intense,” He He said casually. “If not, I will walk in by myself.”

The calm and sincere expression on her face made Zhang Zian think back to what he had seen. It was the same expression he had seen on Peter Lee’s face when he entered the Queen’s Tomb of the Great Pyramid.

“Did…the female detective indoctrinate you?” he guessed vaguely.

Only the female detective ate and lived with He He. She even went to the toilet to accompany her and take care of her. To outsiders, she seemed like a big sister who was patient and kind… However, while driving and camping at night, it was uncertain what she had said to He He privately.

“Traveling with her, I learned a lot. More than what I have learned in the past twenty years. The previous years are like a lie…but it doesn’t matter.”

He He gave a slight grin, tilted her body slightly, and said, “If you want to go, you should hurry and pack up! Oh yes, Teacher Wei, congratulations on your research progress. After your masterpiece is published, I will definitely read it!”

Wei Kang couldn’t have, in all his planning, foreseen that things would turn out like that. If he had known, he would not have agreed to travel with Peter Lee and his team. He would rather let the expedition end in failure than have things as they currently stood.

Nabari’s eyes widened, and he stared at He He in amazement. He walked backwards, murmuring, “The devil… She is possessed by the devil…”

Zhang Zian looked sideways at the dark Devil’s Sea. He could no longer joke about Nabari’s superstitious thoughts.

Maybe the devil really existed, a devil that was stronger than Vladimir.

It existed in the depths of people’s hearts.
