The sudden event near the coal mine came quickly and went quickly, but the implications behind it are extraordinary.

After all, those who have come to the Damo Realm aren't fools; upon learning about the black spot, everyone immediately thought of one possibility:

A space passage to the Demon Realm.

And a space passage often signifies...

A beast tide!

Therefore, the camp couldn't afford to be slack. While arranging for personnel to urgently notify the headquarters in Modu, Lin Li personally led the camp's key people along with a battalion of rapid response forces to rush to the site.

Meanwhile, the forces led by Longxing River gathered in large numbers at the rear, ready to assist in case of any sudden change.

However, the attitude of the rabbits stopped there; they certainly took it seriously, but not enough to feel nervous or anxious.

For instance, the dense formations at several other places only entered a state of alert without making any movements for now.

After all, the coal mine is only about thirty to forty kilometers away from the camp in a straight line, within the range of missile or rocket artillery units, and if necessary, they can fire at will the next second for saturated bombardment.

What they fear most is being blocked in terms of sight, for instance when something happens in a blind spot or at a time without preparation, leading to a sudden overwhelming assault. Because as of now, the rabbits can't achieve all-around sight coverage within a forty-kilometer radius of the camp; each module requires some time.

But once you give the rabbits enough preparation time and they lock onto specific areas with various sighting devices, it basically eliminates the possibility of the situation getting worse.

Of course, this applies to areas outside the camp like the coal mine; around the camp, there's no issue of response time.

Upon arriving on site,

Lin Li and others first entered a large temporary command tent and met Fei Qiu, Shi Yalong, and others waiting there.

This tent was set up by the coal mine guard team, the first armed unit to arrive on site—though due to the coal mine's relative insignificance compared to the Spirit Stone Mine and the shortage of personnel, this guard team comprises only about three to four hundred people.

"Director Fei, the situation is special, so let's skip the formalities."

After entering the tent, Lin Li quickly shook hands with Fei Qiu and asked:

"Director Fei, what exactly happened earlier? Could you recount the entire process again? Please ensure there are no omissions."

Due to the urgency of the situation, Lin Li had been focused on various dispatch arrangements from the start and hadn't properly understood the specifics.

Upon hearing this, Fei Qiu nodded, recalled carefully, and said:

"Captain Lin, originally, we planned to explore the coal mine's drilling area today. We have marked the points repeatedly over this period and basically determined this area is most suitable for operations.

We could even transport the equipment like metal fitting beams and emulsion pump stations over here by tomorrow and proceed with the next step.

But while Old Stone and I were discussing which extraction method suits this geological structure, we suddenly saw a small whirling black spot appear about ten meters away from us... and it began to grow.

When its diameter reached about the size of a washbasin, I started shouting for Old Stone and the rest to run, then randomly threw several timed explosive devices — originally intended for mining blasting, with intervals set between one and five minutes.

Turns out, one or two were timed accurately by me, and they blasted those demon beasts to death on the spot."

Fei Qiu's words revealed a lot of information. Lin Li pondered for a few seconds and seriously asked:

"Director Fei, was there anything unusual when that 'black spot' appeared? For example, sound?"

Fei Qiu shook his head confidently and answered:

"There were no anomalies when it appeared, and it's impossible that it was there unnoticed— that area was just a bit to our left, and initially, I even called over Xiaozhao, who drilled a hole nearby."

After hesitating for a moment, he continued:

"However, while the black spot was expanding, there seemed to be a bit of sound... like the whooshing sound of a hairdryer, but I'm not sure whether it was a hallucination due to my nervousness—Old Stone didn't hear it."

Hearing this, Lin Li turned to Shi Yalong, who nodded at him:

"I indeed didn't hear that sound."

Lin Li then asked a few more questions. Seeing that the information Fei Qiu could provide was essentially exhaustive, Lin Li courteously thanked them:

"Okay, I've understood the situation. Comrades, please take a rest for now. The command will discuss the coal mine's extraction later; if it's merely an accident, the coal mine project should continue."

After reassuring Fei Qiu and the others slightly, he led Lin Ziming and Ma Ning out of the tent.

Afterward, the group walked a few hundred meters to near the 'scene of the incident,' the place where Fei Qiu and the others originally stood.

The center of this area scattered the remains of five demon beasts haphazardly, their bodies visibly all Black Wind Snakes, only about four to five meters in length.

The position where the black spot appeared was marked with a stake, as was the area where Fei Qiu and Shi Yalong originally stood.

There was a large group of research personnel of various functions busily engaged around.

Seeing the arrival of Lin Li and the others, Wang Qiang, who had arrived first by helicopter, quickly stepped forward and said:

"Report to Captain Lin, we have already examined the remains of the monster beasts. Both in appearance and genetically, they can be identified as non-leveled Black Wind Snakes.

The longest Black Wind Snake measured 4.76 meters from snout to hind, and the shortest was only 2.7 meters. In the Damo Realm, they are the lowest of the low."

Lin Li gazed at the chaotic scene for a moment.

The mining-grade timed explosives had a much stronger impact than the set of directional blasting explosives Yao Rong's team used before; the farthest remains were even blasted twenty meters away.

The ground was full of craters, looking much like Prince Ning's face.

However, the mangled remains of the Black Wind Snakes didn't disturb Lin Li. He suddenly recalled something and asked Wang Qiang:

"Oh, right, where is Director Fei's recorder? Was the footage analyzed?"

Previously, despite Fei Qiu having the foresight or foresight to hang the recorder on the branch of a nearby tree.

But due to some unknown and special signal interference, the recorder hardly captured any footage, all appearing as snowy mosaics.

Hearing this, Wang Qiang shook her head and said:

"The information engineering team is still analyzing it, and there's currently no progress."

While they were talking, Academician Pan Jianwei, who had likewise arrived earlier, walked over.

Seeing his expression was somewhat subtle, Lin Li knew that he probably had results and promptly asked:

"Academician Pan, did the physics team discover anything?"

Academician Pan hesitated for a few seconds, then nodded:

"We detected residual energy fluctuations, especially in the spectrogram zone of scattered energy. We can confirm that this was a standard space teleportation event."

As is commonly known.

By applying a specific energy electron beam to the area under investigation and then receiving inelastic scatterings—electrons that lose energy—one can carry out energy detection in the micro domain, mapping out a standard loss spectrogram.

And typically, an electron energy loss spectrum has three zones: zero-loss zone, low energy-loss zone, and high energy-loss zone.

The energy loss in the high energy-loss zone exceeds 50eV, and the information mainly comes from inelastic scattering between incident electrons and inner shell electrons of atoms.

The high energy-loss portion mainly includes the absorption edge, the loss near-edge structure, and the extended energy-loss fine structure—namely ELNES and EXELFS.

The absorption edge corresponds to the initial energy difference between inner shell electrons and the Fermi energy, the energy needed for ionizing inner shell electrons.

It has been mentioned countless times beforehand.

The Damo Realm is a standard world, so it must adhere to energy conservation, a fundamental rule for a world to function normally.

Therefore, just by matching the electron energy loss spectrum of the target area, one can determine whether a high-energy event occurred in this region.

If it reaches the photon level, it indicates spatial teleportation—this theory is similarly applicable locally. It's just that there hasn't been an opportunity for practice.

This is an easy-to-understand concept and is the core technology by which the rabbits verify whether space teleportation has occurred in the Damo Realm.

Now that Academician Pan can affirm that spatial teleportation's momentum loss indeed appeared in this area, it provides theoretical support for Fei Qiu's statement.

It's not that Lin Li and others don't believe Fei Qiu, but because the nature of this event is extremely sensitive.

Lin Li and his team, having interacted with Fei Qiu and being near the site, naturally wouldn't doubt it, but to form a conclusive report document, relevant technical support is required for persuasiveness.

Following this, Lin Li looked at Pan Jianwei and asked:

"Academician Pan, what's your opinion?"

Pan Jianwei is a very cautious scholar, especially understanding that given his achievements and authority in the related field, any speculation might lead the camp to lean towards a decision in an unknown state.

Considering that a crucial aspect is still unresolved, he instinctively wanted to withhold a certain guess of his at that moment.

But before he could speak up, he heard Yu Xiuhong, the head of the information team, rushing over:

"Report, part of the recorder's footage has been analyzed!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Li hadn't reacted yet when Pan Jianwei pulled him up:

"Quick, let's go take a look!"
