Team Space Providence

Buzz—

Spatial ripples quietly emerged across the desolate world, spreading like undulating waves on water, silent yet pervasive.

Then, several figures stepped out of the void.

They wore identical black uniforms, each bearing a badge on their chests engraved with the number "123."

These were the members of Team 123 from the Heavenly Dao Space.

Luo Ya scanned her surroundings, her sharp gaze sweeping across the unfamiliar terrain. The air was thick with a primal aura, and distant roars of savage beasts echoed through the wilderness.

"Captain, according to the intel from the Heavenly Dao Space, the ancient bones should be hidden within a pocket dimension somewhere in this region," a red-haired youth in the team murmured, gripping a faintly glowing compass in his hand.

Their mission was to retrieve the ancient remains from the primordial era.

This wasn’t their first time handling such a task.

But...

An S-rank difficulty mission? That introduced far too many uncertainties.

The captain, a man wearing a silver mask, gave a slight nod, his voice icy. "First, find a secure location to set up camp. Then, we’ll split up to scout."

The team members nodded and swiftly dispersed, each keeping a vigilant watch on their surroundings.

However, the moment they took their first steps, the sky abruptly darkened.

ROAR—!!

A deafening roar tore through the clouds. The team looked up to see a colossal winged beast diving toward them!

It resembled a giant eagle but bore three grotesque heads, each more terrifying than the last. Its razor-sharp beak dripped corrosive venom, and its wingspan blotted out the sky, the gales it stirred up nearly uprooting the trees below.

"Beast attack!!"

One of the team members shouted in alarm, swiftly pulling out a metallic device from his waist and aiming it at the creature before pressing a button.

Beep beep beep—

[Combat Power Detected: 2,500 points!]

"What?!"

The red-haired youth’s pupils constricted. "This thing has 2,500 combat power?! That’s equivalent to twenty A-rank fighters!"

The captain’s eyes darkened as he swiftly drew a sleek, high-tech weapon from his back—a silver-white firearm.

"Prepare for battle!"

His cold command snapped the entire team into combat readiness.

Yet, just as they were about to strike—

BOOM—!!

An invisible pressure suddenly descended, as if the very space around them was being violently compressed!

The beast didn’t even have time to scream before its massive body twisted and contorted as if crushed by an unseen hand.

The sickening crunch of shattering bones rang out before—

SPLAT!

The creature exploded into a mist of blood and gore.

Team 123 stood frozen in shock.

"This... what just—?!"

Luo Ya’s voice was tense.

The captain’s sharp gaze turned toward the distance, where over a dozen figures strode through the air toward them.

They, too, wore black uniforms, but their chests bore a crow-shaped insignia.

The man at the forefront had his hands in his pockets, a mocking smirk on his lips.

"Well, well, if it isn’t Team 123 from the Heavenly Dao Space," he drawled lazily. "What, here to join the fun?"

The captain’s expression hardened as he recognized them. "The Black Crow Team..."

The Black Crow Team—a notorious group of marauders within the Heavenly Dao Space, infamous for their ruthless methods and brazen arrogance.

They never followed mission protocols, instead specializing in stealing other teams’ hard-earned spoils, even resorting to murder if necessary.

"This territory belongs to the Black Crow Team. If you know what’s good for you, scram," the leader sneered, his gaze sweeping over Team 123. "Heard you lost quite a few people on your last S-rank mission? Tsk tsk... How pathetic. And now you dare compete with us for turf?"

The red-haired youth clenched his fists, fury burning in his eyes, but the captain raised a hand to stop him.

"So your mission is to claim territory?" the captain asked, his tone eerily calm, as if discussing the weather.

The Black Crow leader blinked, then grinned viciously. "Yeah, what of it? You here for the same?"

The captain didn’t answer. After a brief silence, he simply gestured to his team. "Fall back."

"Captain?!"

Luo Ya and the others stared at him in disbelief.

"Move."

His voice brooked no argument.

Though seething with resentment, none of Team 123 dared disobey. They gritted their teeth and turned to leave.

The Black Crow members burst into laughter. "Smart move! Next time you step into our territory, you won’t be so lucky!"

Luo Ya lingered at the rear of the group, glancing back at the Black Crow Team before whispering to the captain, "Captain... they don’t seem to realize the people from the Great Thousand World are also here..."

The captain smirked coldly, his voice low. "Let those brainless fools go die for us."

......

......

Meanwhile.

In another pocket dimension.

Qin Luo stood atop a towering peak, his gaze distant, a faint smile playing on his lips.

Whoosh!

Su Muwan materialized beside him, tilting her head curiously. "Luo Luo, what are you looking at?"

"Heh."

Qin Luo chuckled softly. "Just something interesting."

"Interesting?"

"Mmm... seems like..."

He studied the system panel before him, replying thoughtfully, "Some new friends have arrived."

[Detected T0 Female Lead of Heavenly Dao Space: Luo Ya!]

[Master is advised to act as her loyal dog! Reward: 20 Attribute Points!]

Heavenly Dao Space?

Qin Luo performed a quick divination, and scenes flashed before his eyes—

Transmigration. Worlds. Missions. Heavenly Dao Space. Teams...

He halted the vision.

Now he understood.

Ah~

So this was a "Main God Space"-type destiny.

Seemed... slightly more advanced than the usual ones.

After all, they could continuously traverse worlds to complete missions.

Interesting.

A spark of amusement flickered in Qin Luo’s eyes.

The Heavenly Dao Space was different from the Chosen Ones he’d encountered before.

This time, it might actually have some connection to the "Heavenly Dao" itself.

And quite a few people had come, too.

Split into different teams, huh...

Qin Luo raised a brow. He wasn’t entirely familiar with the Heavenly Dao Space’s rules.

Guess I’ll have to... recruit some informants.

With that thought, he waved a hand.

A holographic projection materialized before him, displaying their location at the edge of the Three Thousand Pocket Dimensions.

Qin Luo traced a few points with his fingertip, connecting them.

His lips curled.

Then, heading due north...

That’s where he’d encounter the first batch of Heavenly Dao Space "players."

His Faith Points had already surpassed 300,000. It was time to pick up the pace.

Suddenly—

Almost instinctively, Qin Luo glanced at Su Muwan, who was blinking innocently beside him.

He didn’t want to do this, but...

Every time something like this happened, he just couldn’t resist...

Qin Luo calculated Su Muwan’s fate once more.

And a new vision surfaced—

[All units, alert! Target confirmed, codename: "Absolute Zero"!! Repeat, final mission objective detected!]

【What the hell... What kind of overwhelming pressure is this?】

【Team A, hold the front! Team B, flank and set up the sealing barrier!】

【So noisy...】

【The barrier failed?! Impossible! That thing can seal divine-level entities!!】

【C-Captain! My right hand is freezing! No, my entire body is... ugh!!】

【Shut up...】

【Activate emergency protocol! Send the intel back to headquar—】

【Splat!!】

【Captain!!】

【The captain was just crushed by that monster!!】

【Aaaah! My body’s breaking apart! H-help... me......】

【You people... are really annoying...】

Hiss!

Qin Luo snapped back to reality, taking a sharp breath.

He rubbed his sore eyes.

Had he just seen something unbelievable?

This time, it drained way more mental energy than usual.

Was that Su Muwan in the vision?

She ended up becoming the final boss of the Heavenly Dao Space? What the hell?

Qin Luo was more confused than ever.

If this was the original fate of Su Muwan as deduced by his foresight...

The leap was just too extreme.

Previously, his visions showed her still within a minor realm.

But now? She’s out in outer space, even getting a codename.

Ugh, this is giving me a headache.

"Luo Luo, what were you doing just now?"

Su Muwan gave Qin Luo a puzzled look. Why did he seem so troubled?

"Nothing, Miss. Just remembered I left some egg tarts in the oven. Let’s head back and eat."
