Chapter 547: Chapter 255: Underground Fissure Chapter 547: Chapter 255: Underground Fissure Yan Fei and Yang Qi were hidden beneath a vast fissure underneath the wasteland. At its widest, the underground fissure measured 5 meters across, while at its narrowest, it was less than 1 meter. Moreover, the fissure was incredibly deep; the bottom couldn't be seen at its deepest point, and even at the shallowest it was still 10 meters down from the surface. This fissure stretched far into the distance like a wound of the wasteland, branching off into many paths ahead without an end in sight.

With Yan Fei and Yang Qi concealed beneath the underground fissure, it would be extremely difficult to find them unless they chose to reveal themselves. As Yan Fei contemplated his next move, he heard Yang Qi's stomach growl. Only then did he realize it was already past nine in the evening, local Los Angeles time. They had last eaten at noon and after such a long span, hunger had left his stomach entirely empty. Yan Fei coped better; his control over his body was so remarkable that missing a few meals hardly affected him. But Yang Qi was only human and couldn't withstand the assault of hunger. Despite this, his peculiar nature meant that he wouldn't voice his discomfort.

Thus, Yan Fei began retrieving food from the Universal Space to share with Yang Qi. Although the Drone Energy Points were exhausted, the Universal Space could still be operated for storing items. But due to the lack of Energy Points, drawing items from the Universal Space now consumed more spiritual power. So at this point, aside from being unable to store large items, the retrieval of other items was unaffected.

Yang Qi was the chief scientist Yan Fei had handpicked for Dream Technology's future scientific advancements. Yan Qi would undoubtedly encounter some of Yan Fei's secrets in the future. So Yan Fei never intended to keep him in the dark; starting now, he planned to show Yang Qi his ability to store items in space. He hoped that Yang Qi's research could unravel the mysteries of space and assist in creating his own spatial equipment.

Yang Qi was reserved and uncommunicative, which on the flip side, meant he kept things to himself and could keep secrets. Except for Yan Fei, whom he trusted the most, he would discuss his research with no one. Letting Yang Qi in on some of his secrets would enable Yang Qi to develop more practical science and technology, while also maintaining confidentiality for Yan Fei.

Beyond the Universal Space, Yan Fei thought that the Drone Avatar could also be a subject for Yang Qi's study, which was why he had brought Yang Qi into the Drone Cockpit before. However, regarding the drone being an avatar of himself, that core secret was something Yan Fei would not share. This ultimate secret was his to keep, and he wouldn't tell a soul.

When Yang Qi witnessed Yan Fei conjuring food and water out of thin air, a thoughtful expression crossed his face as he began to ponder the cause. Meanwhile, he subconsciously accepted the food and began eating mechanically.

This way, Yan Fei and Yang Qi stayed in the fissure for over an hour, and now it was past ten in the evening, Los Angeles time. During this period, Yan Fei asked Yang Qi about the incidents he had encountered since coming to The United States, eager to clarify how he was framed to clear his name. But after seeing Yan Fei produce food, Yang Qi had sunk back into his own world, unresponsive to Yan Fei's inquiries.

Yan Fei felt a bit helpless, but he knew Yang Qi well and understood he had latched onto an intriguing problem, now lost in contemplation for an answer. Yang Qi wasn't deliberately ignoring Yan Fei, so he let him be, refraining from waking him.

As time slowly passed, Yan Fei's heart swelled with joy. If things continued this way, in just five more hours, the Drone's data would refresh. By then, the tables would turn, and Yan Fei would be able to do as he pleased.

While Yan Fei quietly calculated time, a sudden sound of airplanes flying caught his attention. He stuck his head out and saw two 10 Attack Planes gliding in the distance under the clear moonlight from the direction of the horizon.

Previously, airplanes had flown overhead as they carried out the task of locating the disappeared drone. They were effectively searching for a needle in a haystack, hoping to stumble upon any clues associated with the vanished Drone. So when he saw these two 10 Attack Planes, Yan Fei assumed they were part of the search and didn't give them much thought.

But these two 10 Attack Planes behaved differently from the others; they flew directly toward Yan Fei's location. Upon reaching above Yan Fei, they started circling and didn't leave the area.

Noticing the abnormal behavior of these two 10 Attack Planes, Yan Fei grew uneasy. Could he have been discovered? He was uncertain of the reason but opted for caution's sake, leading Yang Qi away from their hiding spot and running a kilometer north before once again seeking cover beneath the underground fissure.

Once Yan Fei stopped, he realized that the two 10 Attack Planes were still circling in the sky above him. However, because they circled at such a wide radius, Yan Fei couldn't tell if his recent movement had affected the 10 Attack Planes above.
