The biomechanical soldiers, silent and unmoving, began to advance toward the Void Gate with precise, synchronized steps.


    They moved like a single entity, their cold, mechanical efficiency contrasting sharply with the chaotic energy of the professionals around them.


    The Shadow Messenger''s words seemed to push the professionals into action, a sense of urgency now palpable in the air.


    More than a hundred biomechanical soldiers all entered the void gate, except for Seline, and the other two who followed her remained outside.


    The tension snapped, and several groups took their cue from the advancing soldiers, charging toward the entrance with weapons drawn and shouts that pierced the heavy silence.


    A group to the far right, d in heavy armor and armed with an array of advanced weaponry, was the first to make a move.


    They charged forward with battle cries that echoed through the dense forest, their weapons glinting ominously in the dim light.


    Their leader, a tall figure with a scarred face and amanding presence, led the charge with a ferocious intensity.


    Following suit, other groups began to advance, each driven by their desire or simply to survive the chaos.


    The clearing erupted into activity as the professionals moved towards the Void Gate with their vehicles, their rush creating a chaotic mix of noise and motion.


    As more and more professionals disappeared into the Void Gate, Mai signaled her team. "It''s time. Let''s move."


    With synchronized precision, the team approached the gate, their senses heightened and ready for the unknown challenges that awaited them inside.


    The Void Gate shimmered ominously as they crossed the threshold, entering the dense, shifting darkness.


    The newndscape was eerie and unsettling—a dark, underground mining tunnel that stretched out before them.


    Jagged, irregr rock formations jutted from the walls and ceiling, casting long, ominous shadows.


    The air was thick with a musty, metallic scent, and the faint glow of bioluminescent fungi clung to the rock walls, their dim light flickering unpredictably, creating a strange, ghostly atmosphere.


    The tunnel twisted and turned with no discernible pattern, making it feel like a livingbyrinth.


    The ground beneath their feet was uneven, a mix of loose gravel and patches of slick, slimy moss.


    The only other light came from the pulsating veins of blue and green that ran through the rock, giving the impression that the very walls were alive, breathing slowly in sync with the strange energy of the Void Space.


    Ram carefully maneuvered the truck forward, the engine rumbling softly as it echoed through the tunnel.


    He kept a close eye on the professional groups ahead of them, but the winding passages quickly became disorienting.


    As the tunnel branched off into multiple directions, the professionals they had been trailing started to split off, disappearing into the darkness as they followed different paths.


    Mai''s sharp eyes scanned thebyrinthine tunnels, her mind rapidly calcting their options.


    "Alright, this ce is a maze," she said, her voice calm but authoritative. "We have no idea where these tunnels lead, so we need to be smart about this."


    Sid, always on high alert, nodded in agreement. "Let''s pick a direction and stick to it. Thest thing we need is to get lost in here."


    Mai considered the branching tunnels ahead of them, her eyes narrowing in concentration. "We need to stay together. Splitting up would be a mistake in this environment—we don''t know what we''re up against. Our primary goal is to locate the Source Seed and to do that, we need to cover as much ground as we can without losing each other."


    Without hesitation, Mai led the group into the tunnel on the right, one that no other group had taken.


    The walls loomed high above them, and the width of the tunnel was expansive—easily wide enough for five or six vehicles to move side by side.


    The faint glow from the veins in the rock pulsed rhythmically, casting strange shadows that danced along the walls as they ventured deeper into the unknown.


    As the truck rolled forward, the team remained vignt. Ram kept the vehicle steady, navigating the uneven terrain, while Sid and Liam kept their weapons ready, eyes scanning for any signs of movement.


    Su Mu, calm andposed, watched their rear, ensuring nothing followed them in the darkness.


    After a few moments of tense silence, Mai reached under her seat and retrieved a small, square box.


    The box was intricately carved withplex spiritual runes, each one faintly glowing.


    She ced her hand on top of it, and as soon as her palm touched the surface, the box began to hum softly, absorbing her spiritual power.


    The runes on the box red to life, glowing brighter as they responded to Mai''s energy.


    The box began to morph and shift, its shape twisting and turning with a series of mechanical clicks and whirrs.


    Within moments, the box had transformed into a small, sleek, mechanical white cat.


    The cat blinked once, its glowing eyesing to life as it sat at attention, awaiting Mai''smand.


    "Damn, what is that?" Ram, who was driving next to her, eximed in shock as the ordinary box transformed into a mechanical cat.


    Intrigued, he used his Spiritual Eye to examine its details.
