“Disappeared…disappeared?!”

When the red smoke gradually dissipated, the Starlings were shocked to find that whether it was the Plesians, Regulus, or Astra, they had all disappeared. Only the wreckage of buildings and the flat foundation on the ground, as flat as tofu cut with a knife, came into view.

The Pleser people just disappeared like that. Were they driven away by Regulus and Astra?

As soon as this thought appeared in Zhu Xingtuan's mind, it was extinguished by Zhu Xingtuan.

Because if that were the case, then what he should be seeing now are the figures of Regulus and Astra.

But now he saw nothing, which meant that the Pleser people most likely retreated on their own.

But why is this? If the Plesher had the upper hand in the previous battle, why didn't he continue to expand his advantage, but disappeared instead?

Also, where did Leo, Astra, and Regulus go?

For a moment, many questions emerged in Zhu Xingtuan's mind and troubled him.

"Nan, are you okay?"

At this moment, Gu Chen turned on the communicator and contacted Nan Meng and others.

"Counselor, I'm fine."

Nan Meng's frightened voice came from the communicator.

"I'm fine too."

"Me too."

Soon after, the voices of other team members were heard one after another, all of them expressing the same fear.

Everything that had happened before made them feel that they were doomed, but they didn't expect that at the last moment, the emergency ejection device actually worked and saved them from the flames.

Although they had already prepared themselves mentally to die in battle, when death really came to them, they found it difficult to face it calmly.

"It's okay."

After confirming that the team members were all fine, Gu Chen hung up the phone and turned to look at Zhu Xingtuan.

Then, he saw Zhu Xingtuan looking at him solemnly.

"Let's go find Yuan and the others first."

Seeing this, Gu Chen spoke.

"Does the counselor know where they are?"

Hearing this, Zhu Xingtuan frowned slightly and asked.

"I don't know, but we have to look for it, don't we?"

Gu Chen shook his head. He only knew that Leo and the others were trapped in a red balloon by the Plesher people, but he didn't know where the red balloon had floated to. He still had to look for it.

Zhu Xingtuan said nothing, nodded silently, started the car, and drove to the center of the ruined battlefield.

Fortunately, the Chengnan Sports Club was not affected and is still standing. However, the buildings nearby suffered heavy losses. It is estimated that for a long time to come, the Chengnan Sports Club will be accompanied by the sounds of construction work.

……

"Advisor, Captain, we have searched all over the battlefield, but we haven't found any members of the Fengyuan and Longgu teams."

After a while, Nan Meng's worried voice came from the communicator.

After the logistics team arrived at the scene, the first thing they did was to search and rescue the MAC team members.

Nan Meng and his team were found quickly, but Feng Yuan and Regulos, who were part of the support team, could not be found no matter what.

This made Nan Meng have some bad guesses.

"Got it. You guys go back to the base and rest first. I will personally look for the traces of Yuan and the others."

Gu Chen responded in a serious tone and then hung up the call.

It was already late at night. Gu Chen searched all the places where the red balloon had appeared in his memory, but he couldn't find the red balloon that trapped Leo and the others.

Previously, due to the obstruction of the red smoke and the fact that the process of the Plesher people making the red balloons was not as clear as in the original plot, the difficulty of the search was undoubtedly increased a lot.

"Drip drip drip..."

At this moment, the portable communicator on Gu Chen's wrist rang.

After the call was connected, Moriyama Izumi's voice rang out: "Advisor, a lady named Yamaguchi Momoko called and said she wanted to see you."

"Please transfer it to me."

Gu Chen knew without guessing why Yamaguchi Baizi called him.

"Mr. Gu Chen, Yi is missing, and so is Yuan. I can't find him no matter how hard I try. Could he be..."

The next second, Gu Chen heard the voice of Yamaguchi Baizi.

"Baizi, calm down. Yuan and the others will be fine. I will definitely find them."

After hearing what Yamaguchi Baizi said, Gu Chen immediately interrupted and made a reassurance in a firm tone.

"The kids are scared and worried."

Upon hearing this, Yamaguchi Baizi's tone became a little less anxious, but when she glanced at the children surrounding her, her worry did not subside much.

"Don't worry, Yuan and the others won't get into trouble that easily. I believe in them, and you should believe in them too. It won't be long before they come back."

Realizing that there were still children with Yamaguchi Baizi, Gu Chen's voice became a little softer and he comforted her.

Then, the call was disconnected.

For a moment, the MAC tank fell into silence.

Neither Gu Chen nor Zhu Xingtuan spoke. They had been searching for a long time but still could not find any trace of Leo and the others.

This made them think more, could it be that Leo and the others were kidnapped by the Plesher people?

If this is true, then the problem will be serious. If the old man, King of Ultra, does not take action, then Dark Tiga will have to take action.

Otherwise, if the stage is set up but there are no actors, the play cannot go on.

"Advisor! Captain!"

But at this moment, a call came from somewhere and entered the ears of Gu Chen and Zhu Xingtuan.

"source?!"

Zhu Xingtuan was startled when he heard this and quickly looked around, trying to find the source of the sound.

"I'm here!"

"Bang bang bang..."

The next second, Leo's voice was heard again, followed by the sound of car windows being tapped.

Gu Chen and Zhu Xingtuan looked in the direction of the sound and saw Leo, who was about the size of a figurine, appear outside the car window, patting the window with his tiny hands.

Seeing this, Gu Chen quickly lowered the car window, and Leo flew into the car and landed on the console of the MAC tank.

"Yuan, you..."

Looking at the figure-sized Leo, Tuan Moroboshi couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"Look, I have become like this."

Hearing this, Leo opened his arms towards Moroboshi and turned around to show what he would look like after being shrunk.

"If my guess is correct, Long and Yi have also been shrunk like Yuan."

Gu Chen glanced at Leo, then looked at Zhu Xingtuan and said.

"But... after the transformation, the source should only be able to maintain..."

Zhu Xingtuan opened his mouth, wanting to say something but stopped.

"It should be that the magic of the Plesher people made Yuan smaller, which prolonged the time it took for Yuan to transform."

Gu Chen said, giving the truth directly in the form of speculation.

"Yuan, can't you get bigger?"

Hearing this, Zhu Xingtuan looked at the shrunken Leo and asked with a frown.

"I tried countless times, but I couldn't solve the magic of the space man."

Leo shook his head and said in a frustrated tone
