Chapter 1547: Chapter 1545: Surveying the Situation
When Ling Feng and Carly emerged from the other side of the mountain, covered in dust, they also heard the furious roar of the Earth Bear.
Ling Fengās face was somewhat grim: "Carly, do you know why I canāt summon my weapons here?"
Carly slapped her forehead and said, "I almost forgot to tell you, this island is used for secret experiments, so thereās a huge formation set up here to specifically counter Space Artifacts and weapons on Treasure Artifacts."
Ling Fengās lips twitched; no wonder he couldnāt open his Heavenly Spirit Stone Cave or the Devilās Ring, and even the Mo Yu Sword couldnāt be summoned. It was all because of the formation!
"Letās find a place to rest first!" Ling Feng sighed, then noticed a cave not far away and carried Carly into it.
The cave was a natural one, very dry inside, with dense vines outside, making it impossible to detect the cave from the outside!
After placing Carly inside, Ling Feng carved a concealing formation at the cave entrance to stop those experimental subjects from finding them.
"Carly, I havenāt had the chance to ask before, who does this laboratory belong to?" Ling Feng asked in a deep voice.
Because Ling Feng received this mission inside the Element Tower, it made him wonder if this was a test designed by the Demon King. If that was the case, then everything happening here, is it all real? This left Ling Feng puzzled.
"Our lab leader is Bruce!" Carly said, "But after the riot, Bruce disappeared, likely dead!"
"Bruce? Mad Doctor!" Ling Feng stood up abruptly, gritting his teeth, "That Mad Doctor just wonāt quit. No wonder I smell something familiar from this lab; it must be the work of the Mad Doctorās creations!"
Carly looked fearfully at Ling Feng, who had suddenly exploded in anger, and weakly asked, "Do you also know Bruce, my lord?"
Ling Feng coldly replied, "Of course I know him; Iām quite familiar with him! I just didnāt expect to cross paths with him again so soon!"
Since the mastermind behind this incident is the Mad Doctor, Ling Feng believed the incident to be real, as the Mad Doctor was indeed capable of such heinous acts!
Grumble, at this moment, a sound came from Carlyās stomach, and she blushed, "I havenāt eaten in days, Iām really hungry!"
Ling Feng glanced at Carly: "Then you stay here and donāt move, Iāll go find something for you to eat!"
Carly hesitated, "But will it be dangerous here?"
Ling Feng calmly said, "Iāve set up disguises at the cave entrance, so it should be safe for a while. Iāll be back with food soon!"
With that, Ling Feng turned and left the cave. He also needed to take this time to check the surroundings, as it was important to be cautious in unfamiliar territory!
After exiting the cave, Ling Feng carefully scouted the area and found no traces of danger, which allowed him to breathe a sigh of relief!
From the mountainside, Ling Feng could overlook the laboratory at the foot of the mountain. At this time, several shadows were flickering around the lab, indicating those guys were experimental subjects summoned by the Charm Demon Cat!
Ling Feng felt a bit fortunate; if they hadnāt left quickly, they would have been surrounded by this group, and even if Ling Feng could escape, he couldnāt have protected Carly. If Carly died, his mission would fail!
"Mad Doctor, what exactly are you trying to do?" Ling Feng breathed out: "Did you spend so much effort just to design a mission? I just donāt believe youāre that bored!"
An hour later, Ling Feng had a clear understanding of the surroundings. This island was long and narrow, with only one peak in the middle, surrounded entirely by forest, with a desolate wasteland behind the island.
Ling Feng was somewhat worried because the island wasnāt large, and most of the experimental subjects were hiding in the forest. Once they killed all the lab personnel, they would find the peak eventually, and by then, Ling Feng and the others would have nowhere to hide!
Carrying a dozen fruits, Ling Feng returned to the cave.
"My lord, youāre finally back!" Carly said excitedly when she saw Ling Feng had returned: "I was so scared during this time!"
With that, she dove into Ling Fengās arms, trembling.
Ling Feng frowned, then patted Carly on the shoulder and said, "Itās okay, eat something first, and then weāll figure out how to get out of this predicament."
After eating the fruit, Carly looked satisfied.
"How did you come to this island in the first place?" Ling Feng asked curiously, "And how can we leave now?"
Carly shook her head, "We arrived on this island through a Teleportation Array, but it was a one-way Teleportation Array, so I donāt know how to leave!"
Ling Feng frowned; hadnāt these guys thought about leaving?
"Iāve just checked, and the situation around isnāt good!" Ling Feng sighed, "The island isnāt big, and they will find us eventually; we have to prepare in advance!"

"What do we do then?" Carlyās voice was filled with panic.
Ling Feng pondered for a moment and said, "First, I need to destroy the formation on this island. Only then can I summon my weapons and have a chance of surviving! Do you know where the Restriction Formation is?"
Carly hesitated and said, "I donāt know where the formation is, but the wasteland at the back of the island is our Forbidden Area. Even as research personnel, we canāt go there easily, so there must be something suspicious there!"
Ling Feng nodded, "If what you said is true, then itās very likely there. Iāll go there later to see if I can find any clues about the formation!"
"Can I go with you?" Carly hurriedly said, "Iāve been staying here for half an hour and I canāt stand it; I only feel at ease when Iām by your side!"
Ling Feng said, "But your movement is inconvenient right now; bringing you along would be very inconvenient! What if thereās danger..."
"Iām not afraid, as long as I can be with you, itās worth it even if I die!" Carly grabbed Ling Fengās hand, "Please donāt leave me, Iām really too scared!"
Looking at Carlyās expression, Ling Feng nodded, "Alright, weāll set out later!"
