About ten days had passed since the return from their previous mission. During these ten days, the advance team had not been dispatched for outside tasks. Instead, they stayed back at the airboat headquarters to rest and assist in the development of the research department.
Since being denied by Luo'er last time, Dr. An Liang didn't give up and had come several times, requesting to take Feng for his study, even if it was just to gather some samples. But Luo'er was not so easily swayed. He was amiable at general times, but when his own interests were at stake, his stand was firmer than anyone else's.
Even if, in theory, he agreed, Dr. An Liang still couldn't get past Tangmo. At this point, Tangmo was keeping a close eye on Feng, as if afraid that someone might snatch him away from her. The deeper she went into the study of Feng, the more she felt herself slowly approaching the essence of magic.
