Chapter 278 What Was Hidden in the Celestial Core
Alan shook his head. “I am fine. The Aether Wind Seal I used was only the most basic version. It was still far from reaching that kind of backlash”
Steven nodded.
“What about Uriah and Tank?”
Alan said, “Their lives were saved, but they basically cannot fight anymore.”
Everyone fell silent when they heard that.
This time, Big Spoon had died.
Uriah and Tank had completely lost their combat ability.
That blow weighed heavily on everyone’s heart,
But from another angle, they were already the luckiest ones.
Some of the other squads had been wiped out entirely, and even among those who survived, some were left with only one or two people.
If Steven had not come up with that plan at the end, every one of them would have died.
So, everyone quietly chose not to dwell on it.
Steven looked at them.
He said. “The fact that we made it back alive is already a blessing in all this. We need to look forward.”
Everyone nodded.
Still, the moment felt a little surreal.
They were being lectured by an 18–year–old student.
And yet, every single person there acknowledged Steven now. His combat strength had already surpassed
most of the team.
Steven looked at Alan. “What is our situation now? Where are we?”
Alan explained, “This is the military hospital. My father is investigating why Military Command never sent a
rescue.”
Steven frowned slightly when he heard that.
“Military Command definitely had a major problem this time.”
Alan said, “Their explanation is that after we lost contact, our coordinates were erased along with it. With the quantum wall’s stealth function on top of that, they could not locate us.”

Chapter 276 What Was Hidden in the Celestial Core
Steven nodded, his expression darkening slightly.
There was probably more to this than that.
But it was not something he could discuss right now.
Steven suddenly asked, “By the way, did Cara survive?”
Olivia said, “Do not worry. She survived. If you had not treated her back then, she might really have…”
Steven smiled. “That is good. Cara is a pretty good person.
“Olivia, you and…”
Olivia gave a bitter smile. “She is my lifesaver now. I am not going to fight with her anymore.”
She looked at Alan.
“Do you want to go see her?”
Alan did not know how to answer.
At that moment, a voice rang out.
“Olivia, are you talking trash about me in front of Alan?”
Everyone turned to look.
Sebastian pushed a wheelchair into the room.
Cara was sitting in it.
Her complexion looked much better.
Thankfully, modern medical care was nothing short of excellent.
Olivia said, “I was not. I was saying nice things about you.”
The knot in Cara’s heart had finally come loose. Loving Alan would only hurt.
Alan nodded.
Sebastian turned the wheelchair around and pushed Cara away.
Cara’s heart ached. This really is goodbye, Alan.

After Cara and Sebastian left, Steven suddenly said, “Captain Greenwood, we probably cannot take the Celestial Core with us. Should we hurry and extract something from it first?”
Everyone’s expressions hardened when they heard that.
Right. That’s the real key.
Steven hesitated, as if there was more he wanted to say.
Alan asked, “What else do you want to say?”
Steven frowned. “Captain Greenwood, I suspect the God Eaters left something in the Celestial Core specifically for you. Do you remember what Lars said?”

Alan’s expression darkened slightly when he heard that.
Only then did he remember.
The true reason Yvonne had taken that blade for him.
They sealed off the hospital room.
Olivia connected the data interface to the Celestial Core.
The classified data began transferring over.
