    Someril did not know that Zhang Lisheng had a far more scruple to the Antis than the foreign world’s civilization deep in his heart. Thus, she sighed and shook her head, “Mr. Zhang Lisheng, the Kado people that the Earth civilization has defeated is not horrifying at all. History tells us that when the real dangeres, it’ll never be confined to a certain country, a certain continent, a certain, or even a certain gxy, but the entire universe we’re living in!”


    “Thank you for your stone, Mr. Guteali, I forgive you.” Zhang Lisheng grew silent for a while before suddenly smiling at the Antis man with slender eyes. After carefully cing the light stone into his pocket, he turned his attention back to Someril. He said, “Oh, Madam Someril, with all due respect, the foreign worlds have already appeared on Earth for three years. Until now, they still haven’t yet upied Zimbabwe. Nevertheless, you actually said that they can threaten the safety of the whole universe? This sudden esction really takes me by surprise.”


    The young man’s frivolous manner caused blue veins to bulge out of Guteali’s head. The other Anteans also red at him. Still, only Someril exined to him with an unchanged expression, “Mr. Zhang Lisheng, the foreign worlds on your are emerging batch by batch. Some are ‘wealth,’ and some are opponents of equal strength, while some are offenders that can destroy a civilization. This is just like gambling. The timing of its appearance is not important at all, isn’t it?”


    Since the truth was there, Zhang Lisheng could not refute it no matter how much of a smooth talker he was. After pondering for a while, he said helplessly, “Okay, I admit that you’re right, but Madam Someril, I’m not a savior. I can’t stop such a thing like the destruction of the universe at all. What use does it have for you to look for me?”


    “No one can save the universe that you and I live in alone. Resolving a disaster requires everyone’smon efforts,” Someril answered in an aerial tone. “The lessons that the ancestors learned had told the Anteans that it’s never a good solution to wait for doomsday to arrive before we start fighting against it. Because of this, we came to Earth to form an alliance with the great, heroic people of the Earth...”


    “Madam, I’m also an Earthling, and to be honest, most of mypatriots are not at all confined to the word ‘heroic.’ Please be honest with me. Why did youe here to look for me?” As though the Antean woman’s enthusiasm had not affected him at all, Zhang Lisheng asked impatiently.


    “Alright, since you don’t like beating around the bush, I’ll just tell you the reason straightaway,” Someril replied with a steadfast smile. “After a period of running-in, the Antis Fleet and the Earth Army have formed an alliance. We have decided to conduct a systematic investigation of all the foreign worlds that we have discovered so far. We did this so we can make a detailed ssification of the level of danger we’re facing to adjust in case the situation worsened. Intelligence has shown that you’re ustomed to Shrimp World No. 2 near the coast of New York very well. Not to mention, you have a good interaction with the aboriginal people there, so we need your help.”


    “You must be joking,” Zhang Lisheng’s heart jolted. His heart started to boil. Nevertheless, he put on a bewildered expression as he said, “You Anteans drove the spaceship across the sea of ??stars to Earth. Now, you want to go to the foreign worlds to carry out a ssification ording to the level of danger. Still, you actually came to seek help from an ordinary biologist like me. This is too ludicrous! Where’s your spaceship, light cruiser... Okay, fine, I know that you must keep it as your ‘trump card.’ However, any unmanned reconnaissance ne on the is qualified for any task as long as you are willing to pay a sufficient price...”


    “Mr. Lisheng, I’vee in contact with some supernatural beings who have some ancient inheritance in China a few months ago. You also have ck hair and yellow skin, so you should also know what the proverb ‘beat emptily upon the grass to scare away the snake’ meant, right?” Someril smiled and interjected the young man.


    “Oh? Us Earthlings have alreadyunchedmunication satellites in the foreign worlds already, so don’t you think it’s a little toote to ‘beat the grass’ now?” Zhang Lisheng asked with a curl of his lips.


    “With all due respect, but there’s a saying that says ‘ignorance is fearless.’ What’s done is done; it can no longer be taken back. Fortunately, Lady Luck is on our side. However, Antis has already reached an agreement with Earth in the future. It will never abruptly send any authorized army to step into the foreign world, nor will we transform the new foreign world.”


    “Beautiful madam, I really don’t understand what you are afraid of,” the young man looked at Someril’s unquestionable solemn look. He fell into a moment of silence before asking. “Don’t tell me that there really is a sea monster than can soar in the stars and engulf the?”


    “Mr. Lisheng, it seems that your Aryan Special friend must have a high status for knowing about the sea monster too.” For the first time ever, a trace of uneasiness appeared on Someril’s face. “I can tell you clearly now that the sea monster than can devour a and destroy a realm is indeed real. If you’re willing, I can show you the records that our ancestors made now. Only by experiencing that kind of doomsday situation will you be able to understand the reasons for our caution and wariness.”


    “Is that so?” Zhang Lisheng pondered for a while, “Madam Someril, however, no matter what, the request you made is too sudden anyway. Can you give me some time to think? Erm, how about this? Can I give you my answer after Christmas?”


    “No one can foresee the future, Mr. Lisheng. Because of this, what we have most now is time, but we don’t have enough of it too.” Someril answered deeply. “As themander of the first investigation of World 30009, I can take the responsibility to decide to wait for you and leave after Christmas. However, I still hope you can give me a clear answer as soon as possible.”


    “Y’know, Madam Someril, like a politician, what we businessmen hate the most is to give a clear answer.” Under the white sunshine dazzling in the winter but wascking in warmth, Zhang Lisheng ced a hand over his eyes to shade himself and looked at the helicopter not far away. “How about this? I won’t be able to catch my ne now, so send me back to New York with a private ne, please. I’ll take a closer look at the image records of the ancient Antis people about the sea monster, and I’ll give you a clear answer when the nends. Is that okay?”


    “I’m happy to ept your proposal, but the aircraft is under themand of Colonel Larry.” When Someril heard that she’s starting to convince the young man, she smiled and looked at the seemingly small and ordinary US colonel beside her.


    “Mr. Zhang, I’m sorry for bringing so much trouble for you. I’m willing to send you back to New York, so I wouldn’t have to receive a letter from yourwyers.” Larry looked back at the Antean woman. He smiled, before nodding and replying to Zhang Lisheng in a manner that he thought was humorous enough.


    “Thank you,” Zhang Lisheng, who obtained an affirmative reply, no longer said any more word and walked quickly to the helicopter in the desert. Behind him, the LS’s middle-aged driver suddenly shouted, “Sir, h-how about the jeep and I?”


    “Follow us back to Feren city, Hayde, and rent a car back to Noah World. Just leave the jeep here.” The young man waved his hand without turning around. When his words left his mouth, he had already made a few leaps and jumped into the helicopter.


    The application of the new metal materials from the Shrimp World No. 1 had made significant progress in Earth’s aviation technology. In the way of human nature, thetest technology was naturally used in the military industry.


    As a result, the cabin area of ??the armed transport aircraft had evolved into that of a medium-sized passenger aircraft. The seat arrangement was no longer simr to the previouspact structure. It was closer to a passenger ne now, appearing to be spacious despite having 20 to 30 passengers in it.


    Zhang Lisheng habitually sat in the window seat. By the time all passengers had arrived, the helicopter’s propeller had spun rapidly while gradually resonating loudly.’ Zhang Lisheng looked down at the desert that was getting farther and farther away from and sighed under his breath.


    To him, it was utterly a disaster now that the Anteans were uniting with the US government to carry out an exploration of the basic situation of the Shrimp World No. 2. If his identity as the Hellfire’s god was exposed, under the scruples the Anteans had towards the foreign world’s gods, the consequences were unimaginable.


    Now that he was thinking about the critical issue, the young man clenched his hands unconsciously, while a ferocious look shed across his face.


    When he decided to spare no effort to kill if an unexpected situation happened, a clear voice resonated in his ears. “Mr. Lisheng, ce this ‘recorder’ between your brows, and you’ll learn just how terrible the things that had taken ce in the Antis’ mother in ancient times.”


    “Mother?” Realizing that Someril chose to sit beside him, Zhang Lisheng asked in astonishment, “Madam Someril, it sounds like your civilization already has more than one.”


    “Us Anteans are now living separately on 39 adjacents, of which twenty are found in aerospace and ten are remodeled.” For the first time ever, the pride of being in a higher civilization could be heard in Someril’s calm tone. Then, she seemed to realize this and smiled, “I believe that soon, Earth will also embark on the path of ‘multiary expansion.’ To be powerful is the correct path of every civilization. It’s far more secure than migrating to foreign worlds.”


    “Maybe. But building a settlement in the foreign worlds is easier than remodeling a,” Zhang Lisheng was lost in his thoughts for a long time before sighing. He took the recorder that had the same texture as the light stone and a shape simr to an erected eye from Someril. He ced it between his eyebrows before casually asking, “Just like this?”


    “Yes, Mr. Lisheng, after cing it close to your skin, the ‘recorder’ will stick on it, and then you can just close your eyes. Clear off all your distracting thoughts, slow down your breathing, and soon, it will stimte your brain to let you see that critical history...” Someril nodded and answered. However, she was astounded to see that the eyes of the ck-haired young man beside him had suddenly be empty and fearful.


    Then, his entire body abruptly twitched violently. Like having a spasm, he struggled and tore the ‘recorder’ off his forehead. With his body trembling uncontrobly, he hung his head down and buried his face in his palm.
