Above the towering mountains of the south, the Qing Shan Air Fortress was gliding slowly, blocking out the sun.
Hundreds of soldiers moved through the mountains.
Thousands of drones swarmed the ground, systematically searching every nook and cranny.
The buzzing drone swarm resembled a massive horde of giant killer bees in a state of complete frenzy.
Whenever a batch of drones neared their energy limits, they would fly back to the underside of the Qing Shan Ship, entering a recharge and sleep state, then another batch of hive doors would open, releasing the second wave of drones.
Li Changqing violated search protocols, continually expanding the search range, yet still found no trace of Qing Chen.
Finally, after 6 hours, a drone discovered two anomalies to the north.
The first anomaly: the drone found the corpse of a giant salamander outside the northern valley. A fierce battle had taken place here, but no human corpses were seen.
