"Out of the service area?" Li Yuan felt a jolt in his heart.

If it's temporarily unreachable, it's very normal; perhaps they are busy.

But being out of the service area only has two possibilities.

First, the signal at the uncle's location is being interfered with.

Second, the uncle is inside the star realm.

As far as Li Yuan knows, the interior of a star realm is very special and seems not to be in the same space as the normal Blue Star world; many technological weapons will fail, and it is extremely inconvenient to communicate.

"Could it be that Uncle has already entered the star realm?" Li Yuan's heart sank slightly.

According to previous news about the war in the Luo Bu Sea, the military and the Martial Hall martial artists have already penetrated deep into the star realm to counterattack.

And when he communicated with his uncle, his uncle always said he was at the 'Base No. 7' in the rear.

In an instant, many thoughts flashed through Li Yuan's mind.

"Qianqian, don't worry too much, Uncle will be fine." Li Yuan remained very calm on the surface.

Li Yuan did not want his sister to be frightened.

"It should be that the signal has been affected, so it's out of the service area."

"Uncle has always been in the rear; even if there is an accident in the war, he can evacuate quickly." Li Yuan comforted: "Aunt might be in class and unable to answer the phone, don't worry too much."

The middle school Li Qianqian and Li Muhua attend is not the same school where Chen Hui works.

"Really? Brother!" Li Qianqian seemed to be comforted a lot, but she was still full of worry: "Is Dad really in the rear?"

"Naturally, it's true." Li Yuan revealed a faint smile: "Okay, go back to class first, I will tell you if there is any news."

He hung up the phone.

The smile on Li Yuan's face disappeared, and he spoke directly: "Xiao Yu, search immediately for the recent war situation in the Luo Bu Sea and check if a level 2 war alert has been initiated."

A level 3 war alert already requires large-scale mobilization of military martial artists to go for reinforcements.

Level 2? It represents the risk of the entire star realm defense line being completely breached.

Every province will inevitably provide large-scale support.

"Yes, Master." The auxiliary AI responded.

Only a few seconds later.

Hum~ A light screen projection formed.

What was displayed was a news video, and it was the military spokesperson of the Xia Kingdom.

The news release time was thirty minutes ago.

The spokesperson was wearing a military uniform, with a solemn face, reporting with a hint of sorrow.

"...Tier 2 Star Realm Luo Bu Sea..., since last September, up to now, more than 11,000 people have sacrificed... initiating a level 2 war alert." The spokesperson said solemnly.

"I believe that in this battle, the Xia Kingdom will win, and humanity will win."

Following that, the news items revealed on the light screen were about large-scale gatherings and mobilizations in various places.

"Support teams from twenty-nine martial arts universities."

"Combat robot legions."

"Aerospace military."

On the vast wilderness, one multi-functional combat vehicle after another was speeding forward...

On the airport runway, one fighter jet and aircraft after another were taking off constantly...

On both sides of the high-speed rail lines, one after another, endless combat robot legions were ready to go...

...... All over the Xia Kingdom, the combat-ready martial artist teams stationed by the two major Martial Halls in various places also began to depart urgently.

Support from all directions.

All of this.

Everything indicated how urgent and dangerous the war in the Luo Bu Sea Star Realm was.

Looking at the news items on the light screen, Li Yuan couldn't help but clench his fists, and the veins on the back of his hands were faintly protruding.

In an instant.

Li Yuan thought of the star realm disaster he had experienced himself more than ten years ago.

He survived.

But his parents left forever.

Now, is this scene going to play out again? Uncle, even if he is in the so-called rear, it is the rear of the front line.

Is it definitely safe?

Thinking of this, Li Yuan subconsciously looked out the window.

It was still sunny, and the cherry blossoms were fragrant.

Through the window, he could see a large number of students on the side of the martial arts teaching building, still carrying out martial arts cultivation in an orderly manner, and many students were even playing.

After all, the level 2 war alert had only just been issued.

Except for the military and the two major Martial Halls, I'm afraid most ordinary people don't know yet.

Moreover, the Northern Frontier Province is very far from Jiangbei Province.

The level 2 war alert mainly involves the mobilization of military martial artists, at most conscripting retired soldiers; it will not carry out a total national mobilization and will not cause a major impact on Jiangcheng City.

"Xiao Yu, help me connect to Uncle." Li Yuan said in a low voice.

"Beep—the target is out of the service area, unable to connect." Xiao Yu responded.

"Connect to Aunt." Li Yuan spoke again.

"Beep—beep—" Every second felt like a long wait.

It connected.

But Chen Hui did not turn on the video, only showing voice communication.

"Aunt?" Li Yuan spoke directly: "Luo Bu Sea..."

"Xiao Yuan, I know, don't worry." Chen Hui's voice was quite calm: "I just called a colleague at your uncle's company headquarters as soon as I received the news and asked."

"The place where your uncle is, Base No. 7, has not been attacked. They have already started to retreat, but the signal is estimated to be affected."

Chen Hui said: "It is estimated that he will call us tonight or tomorrow."

"Is that so?" Li Yuan felt slightly relieved in his heart.

What he was most worried about was that the place where his uncle was had been attacked and lost contact.

"Yes, you don't have to worry too much." Chen Hui's voice was quite relaxed: "Okay, I'm going to a meeting, I'll hang up first."

"Okay."

He hung up the phone.

...... In an office at the school, it was empty, and the other teachers had gone to class.

After hanging up the phone with Li Yuan.

"Changzhou." Chen Hui's eyes were red, and there were faint tears; her fingertips flipped through the light screen.

Another chat screen appeared, and the other party's note name was 'Manager Liu of the Xia Construction Ninth Bureau'.

The last message sent by the other party clearly read: "Chen Hui, don't be anxious, Base No. 3 where Old Li and the others are located has indeed lost contact, but the company has not confirmed that it has completely fallen. The war base is very solid, and there is still hope for rescue."

Base No. 3 is a forward base.

"Must!"

"Must survive." Chen Hui silently recited in her heart.

What echoed in her mind were all the scenes she had experienced with Li Changzhou over the past twenty years.

Chen Hui understood that the front line of the war was so dangerous, and the entire war base had lost contact... the hope was slim.

However.

Without receiving accurate news that the base had completely fallen, Chen Hui would still hold onto hope.

After hanging up the phone with his aunt, Li Yuan felt relieved in his heart, not as worried as before.

Suddenly, his eyes widened.

No! There's a problem!

"If Uncle were really safe, Aunt would definitely show worry, or even complain to me a little." Thoughts flashed like lightning in Li Yuan's mind: "Yet, Aunt spoke too nonchalantly."

This is not Aunt's personality.

At the same time, Li Yuan also thought, why didn't Aunt connect the video?

Could it be?

After taking a deep breath, Li Yuan spoke again: "Xiao Yu, help me contact Wang Haoyu, the note is Uncle Wang."

Wang Haoyu was a former colleague of his uncle's department and also a good friend of his uncle.

Li Yuan remembered that when he was in elementary school, Uncle Wang and Uncle Li Changzhou often drank and ate together.

However, since his uncle applied for an overseas assignment, the two had much less contact.

It connected quickly, and a middle-aged man in a suit appeared on the light screen.

"Uncle Wang." Li Yuan's face was full of anxiety: "How is my second uncle? Can you reach him? Have they retreated?"

"Xiao Yuan, you already know?" Uncle Wang in the video was stunned.

"I basically know everything." Li Yuan's face was full of anxiety: "Wasn't it said before that the war was about to end? How could it suddenly be like this? Uncle Wang, do you know the latest situation?"

"Since your aunt already told you, I won't hide it from you." Uncle Wang sighed: "Base No. 3, although not the first wave to be counterattacked, is located on the edge of the star realm. It is indeed unreachable now and should have been besieged."

Base No. 3? Li Yuan felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

Uncle is not at Base No. 7, but at Base No. 3?

"But Base No. 3 is a forward base, the most solid one, and the country is mobilizing forces to rescue it." Uncle Wang said in a low voice: "Perhaps they can be rescued... in short, there is still hope."

"Besides."

Uncle Wang hesitated and said: "Xiao Yuan, I heard that you have achieved something in martial arts, and even won the title of 'Youth Hero'. I was happy for you when I heard about it before."

"You have grown up. If, I mean if... it really is the worst result, you must be strong and take good care of your aunt, as well as your younger brother and sister, understand?" Uncle Wang looked at the white-clad youth who was somewhat silent on the other end of the video.

Uncle Wang couldn't bear it and even felt that his words were a bit cruel.

He watched Li Yuan grow up.

But he felt that at this time, he should instruct Li Yuan a few words.

"I understand, I understand everything." Li Yuan said in a low voice: "Uncle Wang, don't worry, I will take good care of the family."

"Okay, in two days, I will come to see you and your aunt." Uncle Wang finally said: "I have to be busy here, call me if anything happens."

"Hmm, thank you, Uncle Wang." Li Yuan hung up the phone.

Inside the martial arts room.

Li Yuan felt a bit dazed, even with a trace of dizziness, his mind full of Uncle Wang's words just now, Base No. 3!

Lost contact, possibly fallen?

Moreover, he also heard from Uncle Wang's words that there is a high probability that his uncle will not survive to return.

"Must."

"There must be hope."

"Uncle, must still be alive." Li Yuan clenched his fists, his heart aching like a knife, full of despair.

However, Li Yuan still held a glimmer of hope in his heart.

He stood in place, motionless.

Li Yuan was silent for a long time.

Seeming to have figured something out, Li Yuan began to send some messages to some people, including his younger brother and sister.

Whoosh!

Li Yuan bent down gently and picked up the long spear he had thrown on the ground just now.

"What has happened cannot be changed."

"Whether Uncle can survive, I cannot decide either; this depends on the national military and the martial artists." Li Yuan gritted his teeth; he was very distressed, his heart was trembling.

"I can only pray that Uncle can return safely."

In Li Yuan's heart, there was no difference between his uncle and his father.

"If... it really is that result." Li Yuan's eyes were slightly red: "Just like what Uncle Wang said."

"I must hold up this family."

"Uncle certainly wouldn't want me to be sad and decadent; he would rather I live like a man." Li Yuan clenched his fists.

His eye sockets were slightly red, but the tears never fell.

Li Yuan didn't continue to make phone calls, nor did he look at the news again.

Instead, he started practicing the spear again!

One spear shadow after another reappeared.

Whistling and blooming constantly in the martial arts room, Rock Pillar, Hidden Dragon in the Rock Ravine, Ten Thousand Images of Mountains... one after another, the ultimate moves of the Rock Spear Technique were performed by him.

"Kill!"

"Kill!" At this moment, Li Yuan felt that the large sandbag in front of him had turned into the Fish Spirit Tribe.

It had turned into those bloodthirsty star realm creatures.

In Li Yuan's heart, there was an irrepressible worry and sadness, and even more anger, wanting to vent it out thoroughly.

Thrusting and slashing the spear again and again, time passed, and Li Yuan's spear technique became faster and faster!

More and more fierce.

It had already surpassed the past! Truly beginning to touch a brand new realm.
