An Zhe followed his gaze and glanced over there. At the other end of the atrium was a huge black device that looked like a black circular disc, surrounded by layers of octagonal coils. The discs were recessed smoothly from the edge and there was a thick, black cone-shaped object in the centre. There were radial and very sharp objects, something like a line or a pole, connecting the black cone with the coils. The entire installation was larger than two buildings. If he stood under the disc and looked up, he wouldn’t be able to see the sky in all directions.

As he gazed there, the human creations always made him feel huge and strange. In his peripheral vision, Lu Feng took out his communicator and dialed a number. His cold voice was like snow in the depths of winter.

“The Trial Court, Lu Feng. Requesting a transfer to the Lighthouse Centre.”

The two of them were close so the sound from the receiver entered An Zhe’s ears. The other side said, “Transferring, please wait.”

Around 20 seconds later, a male voice rang out. “What’s going on in the city?”

Lu Feng reported, “There is an underground invasion of large worms, suspected to be in groups. At present, the city’s defense station is safe.”

“I understand.” The other person said. “The worm group might be extremely high. We will immediately send a research team to the city’s defense station. You pay attention to protecting the dispersal machine.”

“Okay.”

He had just hung up when his communicator rang again. This time, someone had called it.

Lu Feng asked, “Howard?”

“The underground of Building 3 can’t be blown up anymore. My men have found crawling tracks and are fighting monsters underground.” Howard explained. “There are people injured. The seriously wounded have been killed while the lightly wounded are being sent out. You have to watch.”

Lu Feng looked down. “I can see.”

After that, he added, “The worms are dangerous. People should be sent out the moment they come into contact with mucus.”

Howard cursed but Lu Feng’s tone remained unchanged. “Pay attention to the disperser.”

“There are no traces of any tracks toward the dispersal device.” Howard’s tone was a bit furious. “The foundation under the dispersal device is stronger than the other buildings. Colonel Lu, you should concentrate on doing your own job.”

Lu Feng spoke lightly. “Thanks for the trouble.”

Then he hung up. Based on tone, this wasn’t a pleasant call but Lu Feng didn’t seem to care. He leaned against the window in a slightly lazy posture, his eyes watching the soldiers coming and going in the atrium. An Zhe knew that he was monitoring the safety of the soldiers.

There was nothing to do. An Zhe continued to look at the huge instrument in the atrium. Based on the conversation between Lu Feng and others, An Zhe guessed that this was the ‘ultrasonic dispersal device.’
