The Abyssal Infiltrator

It was time to set out.

Although life at the base was somewhat boring, sitting outside the tents and counting the research teams was actually pretty fun.

But business was business. After all, the latest trial had ended, and what followed might be something even more terrifying. Mom had taken him into the Abyss to see that terrifying thing, and they had to retrieve his father's lost palace. Everything was for this.

Still, leaving now meant Qinggang had no more worries hanging over it.

After all, the Research Institute's people had arrived, and they had already made their position clear. For Qinggang, that was a major safeguard.

Lu Xin could therefore leave with peace of mind and take care of some matters of his own.

Of course, compared to these repeated adventures and challenges, Lu Xin preferred staying at the base.

Life at the base was wonderful. Counting heads was fun, and watching the researchers clutch their hair and fight over some problem was fun too.

The most fun was when Number Eight was being chased by the cafeteria auntie with a ladle...

...After taking his warning to heart, that guy had deliberately avoided the brawny ones when reporting the researchers.

But he had never expected the cafeteria auntie to be a formidable fighter too.

She had once served in Kid's Nanny Squad.

That also explained why the auntie always gave Lu Xin a few extra pieces of meat whenever he went to get food...

...But the adventure still had to be undertaken!

Lu Xin thought that the reason he was leaving this comfortable life behind was precisely to ensure that this comfortable life could continue, wasn't it?

After deciding to leave, they waited two minutes before Sister finally arrived.

She looked a little strange when she came.
