Rebirth of the Strongest Mental Power in the Interstellar

Yu Lanfeng's expression darkened.

“Destroyed? Why was it destroyed?”

“Marshal, we specifically checked. Its service life had ended, so it was destroyed according to normal procedures.”

Could it really be such a coincidence?

Nan Yu suddenly thought of something, and his expression became a little strange.

Yu Lanfeng noticed immediately.

“What is it? Do you have something to say?”

Nan Yu hesitated for a moment but still voiced his thoughts.

“I've been wondering about something. We still don't know for certain whether this soil came from the third underground level you mentioned. Why are you all so sure it wasn't brought in from outside?”

“And... if things are really as you guessed, then now that the trail here has been cut off, can't we just investigate the third underground level? Or is it a place that people can't enter freely? If that's the case, then just pretend I never said anything.”

He wasn't very familiar with the rules here, so there were some things he really couldn't say too much about. If he accidentally touched a taboo, that would be his own carelessness.

After hearing Nan Yu's words, everyone suddenly understood.

That's right.

They had entered a blind spot.

Although there was a high probability that the soil had been brought up from the third underground level, that wasn't absolutely certain.

There had been cases before where people had accidentally—or deliberately—brought soil in from outside.

Some had done it for research purposes. Their intentions had been good, wanting to find a way to deal with the toxins, but in the end, when they were discovered, they had still been punished.

But this time was different.

Those soldiers who had broken the rules in the past had done so with good intentions.

This time, however, the whole thing had been abnormal from the beginning.

Yu Lanfeng officially began taking the matter seriously.

“Investigate it. Start with the third underground level. The total weight of the soil there is recorded. If some is missing, we'll know immediately. Go and check. If nothing is missing there...”

Then it would really be as Nan Yu had suggested—the soil had been brought in from outside.

And in that case, the nature of the incident would become entirely different.

Who would have thought things could become even more serious?

Fortunately, when they checked the total weight of the soil on the third underground level, they found that some of it was indeed missing.

And the weight of the missing portion was almost identical to the amount of soil found inside the portable cleaning robot.

Upon hearing this news, everyone, including Yu Lanfeng, breathed a sigh of relief.

“In that case, investigate who violated the regulations and punish them according to military law.”

Yu Lanfeng thought for a moment and directly handed the matter over to Liu Cheng.

“Can I leave this to you?”

Liu Cheng straightened his back and saluted.

“Yes, Marshal! No problem!”

Then Yu Lanfeng turned to Nan Yu.

“Regardless of whether these incidents were aimed at you or not, you need to be more careful. There is an empty room beside mine. You can stay there.”

Yu Lanfeng's reasoning was simple.

He wanted to prevent Nan Yu from getting into trouble again.

He had personally guaranteed to Major General Nan Ming that he would take good care of Nan Yu, but not long after arriving, Nan Yu had already encountered one problem after another.

Yu Lanfeng himself had no ulterior motives, but that didn't mean others wouldn't overthink things.

Fortunately, the military base was normally sealed off.

Everything here was classified information and couldn't be spread outside.

Even the channels used to communicate with the outside world were strictly regulated.

Therefore, at most, only the people inside the military base would know about this incident. Whether outsiders could ever learn about it was another matter entirely.

After all, the soldiers under Yu Lanfeng were highly disciplined.

Military matters stayed within the military.

Even if they encountered comrades outside, they would never discuss military affairs.

Anyone who violated the rules would be expelled from military service, and whether another legion would even accept them afterward was uncertain.

After all, they would have been thrown out.

Nan Yu didn't think too much about it.

He had already grown tired of these troublesome matters.

Elsewhere, these problems wouldn't amount to much.

But here, they became extremely troublesome.

If he had to keep dealing with things like this in the future, wouldn't it drive him crazy?

And they still didn't know who was behind all this.

While following everyone here, he had heard someone explain that the most seriously mentally contaminated members of Liu Cheng's team had originally been assigned to him.

There was no need to think about it.

Someone had deliberately been causing trouble for him.

It had nothing to do with targeting An Mi.

After all, if Nan Yu exhausted his mental power, the person in danger would be Nan Yu himself. What did that have to do with An Mi?

Even if An Mi was punished for negligence, would that instantly restore the mental power Nan Yu had lost?

The damage caused by mental power exhaustion couldn't heal in a short time.

In severe cases, one might never be able to advance again.

And permanent damage to one's mental power was even possible.

When Nan Yu had first arrived at this military base, because Yu Lanfeng himself had brought him here, and because this was the military, he had never been on guard against anyone.

After all, this was the famous military base under Yu Lanfeng's command.

How could anything go wrong?

And yet, shortly after arriving, such huge problems had appeared.

The more he thought about it, the more something felt wrong.

Across both lifetimes, this was his first time coming here.

Why would someone deliberately target him?

Could it really be An Mi?

But if it were him, wouldn't that be far too obvious?

“Thank you, Marshal. Then I'll stay there. If things like this keep happening, I'll be troubled as well.”

Yu Lanfeng nodded without saying anything else and simply instructed someone to take Nan Yu to rest.

“It's already late. You consumed a lot of mental power earlier. Go back and rest well. There are still many soldiers in the military base suffering from severe mental contamination who will need your help.”

Although Nan Yu had rested for a while earlier, he had used too much mental power before. It had practically been depleted, so that brief rest was far from enough.

Tonight, he absolutely had to sleep properly to ensure he could continue working afterward.

“I understand. Then I'll go rest first.”

Hopefully, nothing would happen this time.

Yu Lanfeng glanced at someone behind him.

That person slowly stepped forward.

“Hello, Nan Yu. Please come with me. I'll take you to your room.”

Nan Yu looked at the tall and handsome officer.

For some reason, ever since arriving in this military, every time he saw an officer, he felt that he must have been blind in his previous life.

Seriously.

He could randomly pick anyone here—even an ordinary soldier—and they would probably be better than Bai Zhouyun.

After all, the standards for entering Yu Lanfeng's legion were extremely strict.

At the very least, one had to possess upright character and have no black marks on their record.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and his emotions unconsciously appeared on his face.

Unexpectedly, although the officer was walking ahead with his back turned, it was as though he had eyes on the back of his head.

“Are you angry?”
