I, the warden of Delta, am a science popularizer and advocate for nuclear peace and friendliness.

Longbow Valley, Diamond Queen Hotel

"Your Excellency, please rest here for a while. I will send my men to prepare the helicopter."

In the extremely luxuriously decorated room, Shi Yu sat on the soft sofa, quietly gazing out the window.

After Reese left with a grin, the room fell into a quiet atmosphere.

In the silence, a thoughtful look flashed across Shi Yu's eyes as he considered his next move.

The battle at the space city is bound to be extremely dangerous, and Shi Yu currently has no idea what the warden of the Great World is like.

If what Jacob's phonograph said is true, then Gherros from the Great World should have been resurrected by the Rebirth System.

Furthermore, Geheros does not remember his conversation with Jacob.

Because of the phonograph's inherent capabilities, everyone except the user, Jacob, will gradually forget about it.

Even Geherus, who lived through this period of history, was no exception.

"With my current strength, I'm afraid I'm no match for Great World Geheros."

Shigure clenched his fist and looked down at his tightly clenched right hand.

A moment later, two fingers were raised.

"Said and Reis are at least elite-level combatants."

Another finger extends.

"Demulan, like Geheros, has a brain-computer interface installed, so his strength should be no less than mine."

Shiyu paused, then spoke again.

"Gheros... is presumably a special-class being."

He wasn't too concerned about that. With the existence of Jacob's phonograph, Shigure had already indirectly mastered the means to kill the Great World, Geheros.

That is to play the historical clips from Jacob's phonograph so that Geherus in that conversation can regain his original memories.

At that time, Great World Gohros would have no reason to kill himself, because he would then be on the opposite side of Hafk.

but……

Shigure extended his last finger.

"Jacob Hafk's strength is unknown, but he's definitely not someone I can mess with."

Until a way is found to completely eliminate the risks associated with brain-computer interfaces is found, Shigure will not go to Jacob unless he wants to die.

"call……"

He exhaled a breath of stale air, leaned back against the sofa, and pondered for a moment.

Three minutes later, a golden light suddenly flashed in Shi Yu's eyes, and he sat up and looked out the window.

He had a safer way to avoid being discovered by Jacob.

……

About ten minutes later, Reese walked briskly with a smug smile on his face.

He pushed open the door, his face plastered with his usual smile, a mixture of obsequiousness and calculation: "Your Excellency Warden, everything is arranged, we can be there anytime..."

Shigure gestured for him to shut up, and Reiss stopped talking abruptly.

Shi Yu did not get up. His gaze remained fixed on the valley view outside the window, which was hazy under the hotel lights.

Only after a moment did he turn his face slightly to the side, the light and shadow cutting out calm lines on his death-like white mask.

"Reis".

The sound was steady and not loud, yet it was like a block of ice thrown into a brief silence, instantly freezing the air flowing in the room.

Reese's smile froze for a moment, then he quickly became even more ingratiating: "Is there anything else you need?"

Shiyu turned around and looked at him calmly. There was no questioning in her eyes, only a flat statement.

"I need a phonograph."

"Leave...a phonograph?" Reis was clearly not expected to receive this request, and all the flattery he had prepared got stuck in his throat.

He subconsciously glanced around the luxurious suite. The Diamond Queen Hotel had everything, but these days, who would bother to prepare that kind of thing?

"Sir, the helicopter is on standby, and I'm afraid it will take us too long..."

"There's still time," Shiyu interrupted him, her tone devoid of emotion but carrying an undeniable weight.

After they finished speaking, neither of them spoke again, and an eerie silence fell over the atmosphere.

For some reason, a sense of unease welled up in Reis's heart.

This warden, known for his iron fist and unpredictability, suddenly wanted to borrow an old gramophone to listen to classical music as he was about to leave.

In those few seconds, a thousand thoughts raced through his mind, his lips moved, and he subconsciously wanted to ask "Why?"

But when they met Shigure's deep, unfathomable gaze, all their doubts were suppressed.

His eyes were telling him: You don't need to know the reason, you just need to do it.

A smile quickly returned to Reese's face, but it was cold and forced as he replied.

"Hey, I thought it was something serious." He patted his forehead, his tone exaggerated, trying to dilute the strange atmosphere brought about by this abrupt request.

"Your Excellency Warden, what a refined taste! Diamond Queen may not have much else, but satisfying your unique needs is our top priority. Please wait a moment, I'll go and get it for you right away!"

He turned to leave, but his steps were slower than when he came. After closing the door completely, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared.

"Tsk, they're so hard to please."

Reese muttered something to himself and turned to walk in another direction.

Shi Yu stared at the closed door, a slight smile playing on her lips.

"It seems this guy really values ​​his phonograph."

Shi Yu sighed. After all, it was a bright red piece worth over a million Haff coins, so it was understandable that Reis was reluctant to part with it.

Moreover, this guy actually likes classical music. When Shiyu wanted to borrow his phonograph just now, his expression changed like a Peking Opera.

A short while later, the door opened again, and this time Reese was holding a yellow, trumpet-shaped classic phonograph.

The other person slowly walked over and handed the item in their hand to Shi Yu.

The latter took it and then asked a question.

"Has anything been stored in there?"

Reis answered almost without hesitation.

"No, I usually only use it to play music; I've hardly ever used its abilities."

Reis naturally understood what Shiyu meant; they, the natives of the Great World, possessed information about red extraordinary items, just like the players.

However, the transmission methods are somewhat different. The former can be viewed directly through the system panel, while the latter will obtain ability information after touching the item.

But ultimately, they all lead to the same goal. Shiyu, holding the medium-sized gramophone, nodded gently.

"Let's go to the space center."

As soon as he finished speaking, Reese turned around, his eyes flashing behind his red sunglasses.

"Sigh, being someone's subordinate is really not a pleasant experience..."

Reis sighed inwardly and respectfully led Shigure onto the helicopter.
