Hao Ren was not nervous. The vigilance from his professional training prompted him to warn the others to stay away from the door although he did not expect any real danger behind the door. It was not his carelessness; it was just that the circumstances surrounding them were relaxing. The entire experimental base was tidy and in good condition. It did not look like there had been an intrusion or deliberate destruction from the inside. Something else must have triggered the evacuation.
Hao Ren had not let down his guard. His heart skipped a beat, and he shouted in warning before the door fully opened. "Fall back! Danger!"
Before Hao Ren's voice trailed off, a white light blazed out from the door. It pierced the open space and left a trail of dark spatial rifts in the air before it hit the ground. Although it only lasted for a split second, the light left a scorched mark on the floor, which was made of superalloy, an alloy stronger than any alloy on Earth.
