Zombie Marvel? Luckily, I'm Superman!

"I can't say any more. The more I say, the more likely it is to affect something."

"In any case, we're staying here."

After saying that, Rongrong's expression instantly returned to normal. Her eyes recovered, and she regained her previous innocent and naive demeanor.

She looked at Cat Sister with a puzzled expression, as if she was wondering why she suddenly wanted to look at Cat Sister when she had just been fiddling with the crystal fragments.

Seeing that Cat Sister was deep in thought, Rongrong asked softly, "Cat Sister, what are you thinking about?"

Oh! That tone of voice, her familiar cat head is back.

"No, it's nothing." Sister Cat smiled and gestured for her to play by herself.

Rongrong didn't dwell on it and turned back to continue fiddling with the crystal fragments.

Cat Sister looked at Rongrong, and she remembered.

She had spoken with Rongrong before, when that incident happened in the dimensional gap world, but there was no video call.

The firmness and confidence in Rongrong's tone just now were almost exactly the same as in our previous conversation.

Does Giorno have a split personality? Or...?

Sister Cat sighed.

There are so many problems and troubles.

I miss the simpler days when I followed my boss to open bars all over the universe.

Back then, life was so easy. Everyone at the Xixing Bar could practically roam the universe with impunity. They had no shortage of either combat power or resources; running the bar was just a hobby for the proprietress.

Now, she's the owner of a branch store, but... those carefree days are long gone.

Somewhere on the third floor.

A person completely shrouded in a dark cloak approached the vice president of the Space Association.

While claiming to have some important information to trade, the vice president seemed unconvinced.

He had seen too many people like this; they were usually people who wanted to get rich quick or who wanted to gain resources by taking small risks.

It wasn't until the man revealed the true identity of the disguised rune lizardman beside him that the vice president's expression changed drastically. He then opened his own small space and "invited" the man inside.

Also entering at the same time were the rune lizardmen.

"Speak, what important information needs to be traded?" the vice president asked warily.

This small space is entirely white. Although there is nothing there, the owner has always been in charge of this space.

For someone to agree to enter the small space, they either have some important information to trade, or their own strength is a level higher than his, allowing them to remain unaffected.

The man in the black cloak turned to look at the rune lizardman before speaking.

"I know you're looking for something."

Upon hearing this, the vice president first scoffed, then laughed disdainfully, "We're looking for far more than just information. Tell me your details first, and I'll assess your reward based on the truthfulness and value of the information you provide."

The man in the black cloak didn't hesitate; he stretched out his hand, and a holographic projection screen floated on his palm.

On the screen, the orange solid gem caused the rune lizardman next to the vice president to shrink his pupils.

"An orange gem. I think you know what it is."

Before the vice president could speak, the rune lizardman couldn't hold back any longer.

Do you have information about this gemstone?

He knew perfectly well what it was. His main purpose in coming to the Space Ruins was to find that orange gem.

"Yes, he's in someone's hands now."

The man in the black cloak spoke, then flipped his hand, and the scene shifted. A figure appeared on the screen.

The rune lizardman's pupils contracted again.

It's Lin Yi.

The rune lizardmen knew, of course, that Lin Yi had come to the dimensional gap world.

but……

The rune lizardman's eyes took on a slightly dangerous look.

Is this all the information you have?

Lin Yi possessed an orange gem, of course he knew that too. What was so important about that? He even knew that Lin Yi had more than one orange gem!

He was immediately annoyed, feeling like he had been tricked.

"No, you may have misunderstood." The man in the black cloak put away the holographic projection, ignoring the dangerous gaze of the rune lizardman.

"The orange gem I'm referring to is one he acquired yesterday."

"Newly acquired?"

"That's right, he obtained the new orange gem from someone. As for who it was, you don't need to ask."

The rune lizardman subconsciously exchanged a glance with the vice president.

If this is true, then it is indeed very important. There is only one orange gem in the dimensional gap world, and it's now in Lin Yi's hands?

Then the plan will need to be changed slightly.

The vice president gleaned some information from the rune lizardman's reaction. After feigning deep thought for a moment, he said to the man in the black cloak, "This information is indeed useful, but its authenticity remains to be verified."

"I will verify it as soon as possible and then provide the corresponding reward."

"Now, you can leave..."

As he spoke, the vice president opened an exit in the small space that could only accommodate one person at a time.

The hand behind his back secretly made a gesture toward the rune lizardman.

This person cannot be kept.

Once he reveals the true identity of the rune lizardman, whatever information he gives us, we cannot keep it.

The connection between the Rune Lizardman and the person behind him must not be known to anyone, especially the president of the Space Association.

The rune lizardman silently circulated energy within his body.

The two remained tense, waiting for the man in the black cloak to turn around and head towards the exit, so they could make their move together.

But the man in the black cloak didn't even look for the exit; instead, he spoke with a mocking tone.

"Compensation? No need, in a sense you've already paid."

The vice president frowned: "What do you mean?"

The man in the black cloak shook his head, unwilling to speak further.

Then, the entire figure seemed to melt away, rapidly collapsing and disappearing from the spot.

"Oh no!"

The vice president suddenly took a step forward, and his senses immediately activated.

They frantically scanned the entire small space but couldn't find any trace of the man in the black cloak.

He turned around, his face looking rather grim.

The rune lizardman's expression was equally grim.

A random person came and said something very important to them, and judging from the way he left, he was far more powerful than the two of them.

What is his purpose? And who is he?

Also, what does it mean that, from a certain perspective, the payment has already been made?

A sense of foreboding rose in the Rune Lizardman's heart.

He completely ignored the vice president and quickly walked towards the door.

Once outside the small space, he immediately sent a message to the metal mask.

The brief message quickly conveyed the appearance of the man in the black cloak and the information he brought.

There was a long silence on the other end, and then a video call came in.

...Entrance to the eighth floor.

The administrator stood in the void, expressionless as he watched his team members clear out the monsters on the eighth floor.

A gentle breeze stirred around him, and a figure in a black cloak appeared beside him.
