94: containment operation

In just a few minutes, they arrived at the entrance to the Otherworld.

Xu Lihuang relayed what had just happened inside the Otherworld to the soldiers guarding both sides.

He also showed them the corpse and the dazed Snow Feather wolf.

There was no need for further verification; the evidence was right before their eyes, clearly indicating a possession.

The latter's expression also changed drastically upon hearing this, becoming grim, as this was a major incident.

He quickly began contacting people within the army and explaining the situation.

Then, with a wave of his hand, he rallied the remaining few soldiers to guard the Otherworld gate, preventing anyone from entering or exiting.

Even Lin Shu and Xu Lihuang were included, needing to await a check before they could leave.

Neither of them had any objections to this.

Such decisive and swift action clearly indicated a standardized procedure, suggesting that such incidents had occurred many times before.

That alien today would find it impossible to escape.

Lin Shu then called the principal, informing him of everything that had just happened.

On the other end of the phone, Pei Yuanfang remained silent for a moment before replying.

“What the hell, that such a thing would happen to you.”

“You stay there for now.”

“I'm coming over now.”

He then hung up the phone directly and rushed over.

Evidently, he was very concerned about this matter; the issue of the alien soul body was clearly not simple.

Lin Shu once again informed his mentor about this matter.

His mentor was still in Bin Province these two days and had not left.

However, he did not reply immediately, clearly busy with something.

Lin Shu's gaze swept around; because of the fixed quota, there was no one waiting outside, only needing to guard against people coming out from inside, which saved a lot of effort.

The army's actions were very swift; in just about ten minutes,

a team was dispatched, led by a man with a furrowed brow, clearly finding this matterTricky.

He conjured a purple glowing orb out of thin air and then released it.

The orb flew straight up, swaying steadily up and down, with strands of purple light continuing to flash in an orderly fashion.

Xu Lihuang, standing beside him, explained to Lin Shu.

“This is a Spirit-Sensing Purple Orb, specifically used to distinguish Mental and souls.”

“Aliens' souls are inherently different from ours on Blue Star; this is something that can never be changed.”

“If the Spirit-Sensing Purple Orb turns red, it means they are an alien.”

It was a formidable item; the opponent would have nowhere to hide unless he remained concealed within the Otherworld.

“Then he can't escape.”

“Of course.”

Xu Lihuang clearly thought so too.

At this moment, a soldier strode up to Lin Shu and Xu Lihuang, speaking with a polite attitude.

“Gentlemen, please come and cooperate with the test!”

He then pointed to the hovering Spirit-Sensing Purple Orb.

Neither of them had any problems with this and nodded.

They then walked over.

As they walked directly within three meters of the Spirit-Sensing Purple Orb, two purple lines extended from the surface of the orb.

They each came to Lin Shu and Xu Lihuang's heads, then transformed into purple headbands, tightly adhering to their foreheads.

Lin Shu could clearly feel a refreshing sensation wash over his Mental, and his Mental power became active at this moment.

Clearly, the detection had officially begun.

After about a minute, the purple headbands instantly retracted, returning to the interior of the sphere in the blink of an eye.

The purple glow within the Spirit-Sensing Purple Orb intensified, lighting up twice in succession.

This scene indicated that there was no problem with their identities.

The team members, who had been fully focused and on edge, immediately lowered their guard upon seeing this.

The leader of that small team walked over and spoke to the two.

“Please forgive us, gentlemen, this is standard procedure.”

“And thank you both for reporting this matter!”

The soldier looked apologetic, then shook hands with Lin Shu and Xu Lihuang respectively, expressing his gratitude.

Lin Shu understood this, finding it to be nothing.

“It's alright, it's what we should do.”

“Then I won't waste any more words; there's still work to be done inside.”

“Thank you both again.”

He then turned and left, leading the newly arrived team directly into the Otherworld.

Clearly, they were preparing to expel everyone inside.

Otherwise, staying inside would always carry the risk of being possessed.

Of course, everyone who came out would need to be tested.

Remembering that Bai Sheng was still inside, Lin Shu thought, hoping nothing untoward would happen to him.

Time slowly passed, and figures emerged one by one from the vortex, undergoing the Spirit-Sensing Purple Orb's detection.

Their expressions were flustered, clearly already aware of what had happened, sighing that their luck was truly terrible to encounter such a thing.

Such occurrences of alien soul bodies usually happened in intermediate Otherworlds and above; for it to appear in a shattered-level one was rare.

At this moment, the principal also arrived at the scene, quickly coming to Lin Shu's side, appearing somewhat flustered.

Although he had Snow Feather's protection, it had no way to deal with this soul body.

Moreover, these aliens had many methods, so caution was necessary.

He activated a secret technique to check Lin Shu, and only after finding no traces or hidden dangers did he relax.

Lin Shu also understood the principal's worries; he had a panel to check his body's status.

A glance was enough to know that he currently had no problems.

“It's good that you're alright.”

“This is also my fault for letting you enter this cursed place.”

“And encountering such a thing.”

Pei Yuanfang shook his head, his brows slightly furrowed, taking the blame upon himself.

“How can you blame the principal for this?”

“It's just my bad luck.”

This was also Lin Shu's thought.

Pei Yuanfang nodded, not continuing the topic.

“However, you are decisive.”

“As soon as you found a problem, you immediately had Snow Feather act.”

Speaking of this, Pei Yuanfang couldn't help but admire Lin Shu's meticulous thinking and decisive action.

To be able to discover the problem at the first moment was something even he himself could never do.

“His eyes were too cold, and he exuded an aura of coldness and ruthlessness.”

“When he looked at me, it was as if he was looking at a commodity.”

“No matter how I looked at him, he couldn't be a good person, so I had Snow Feather attack.”

Lin Shu explained in an orderly manner, although it might seem somewhat arbitrary.

However, he had a panel to check information, which ensured he wouldn't make a mistake, but this couldn't be revealed.

Pei Yuanfang and Xu Lihuang grew even more amazed upon hearing this, thinking that at such an age, they probably wouldn't even know if something went wrong.

Let alone anything else.

Just as the three were still in discussion,

Bai Sheng and his cousin, Bai Yufan, passed the Spirit-Sensing Purple Orb's inspection and were allowed to leave.

Bai Sheng, however, searched for Lin Shu's figure with a somewhat anxious expression, quickly spotting him, and his expression immediately softened, smiling and nodding at Lin Shu.

He then came to Lin Shu's side, nodding at the principal and Xu Lihuang, greeting them.

Then he spoke in a somewhat startled tone.

“What terrible luck.”

“To encounter something like this on my first time.”

“By the way, why didn't I see you at the exit?”
