Viv quickly walked a few steps and caught up with Lu Yuan and Rhine, leading them forward and preventing them from continuing to move freely on Pluto.

Rhine walked along, observing his surroundings as he went.

The environment on Pluto appears very primitive at first glance, seemingly even harsher than a barren planet.

But Rhine could see that powerful weapons were hidden inside those deserts, mountains, and canyons.

With Lu Yuan's help and cover, Rhine found an opportunity to examine some of the weapons, and sure enough, they were all the latest models just developed by the Imperial Academy of Sciences.

This made Rhein even more suspicious of the true identity of the owner behind the Netherlands company.

However, there was another thing that puzzled Rhine as well: there didn't seem to be many insects on Pluto.

Rhine wore a detection device that allowed him to determine the true number of insects on Pluto even if some were hidden.

According to feedback from the detection devices, there are currently fewer than one hundred insects on Pluto.

Based on the number of children the Netherlands Corporation has taken from various orphanages over the years, there should be more insects on Pluto than there are now.

Even if all those children were sent away, if the Netherlands Corporation wanted to ambush him, they shouldn't have only deployed so few insects on Pluto. How could a mere hundred insects possibly deal with him?

Or is it that the Netherlands Company is not planning to deal with him using insects, but rather with weapons?

Judging from the types of weapons he had just observed, relying on those things to deal with him was still a bit lacking.

Rhein believed that the Dutch company's insects wouldn't be so stupid as to fail to assess his strength.

Or perhaps the Netherlands Corporation is hiding some kind of massive weapon of mass destruction on Pluto, and to avoid accidentally harming too many of its own insects, it withdrew some of them in advance, leaving only the insects that are present now.

The thought of the possibility of weapons of mass destruction made Rhein's heart tighten.

He wasn't worried about himself; he had made plenty of preparations beforehand. Unless the Netherlands Corporation was planning to destroy the entire planet Pluto, he was capable of handling most large-scale weapons of mass destruction.

His main concern was the long distance.

However, he then thought of the strength of the protective shield inside the locator on Lu Yuan's body, and felt a little more relaxed.

At the same time, he was also secretly relieved that, over the years, whenever he saw Feynman's technology improve, he would pressure Feynman to upgrade the protective cover inside the remote locator.

With the current strength of that protective shield, even if he weren't there, ordinary heavy weapons of mass destruction wouldn't be able to harm Lu Yuan.

He also pre-programmed Lu Yuan's shoes so that they would immediately carry Lu Yuan away if he was attacked.

As Rhine pondered various possibilities and solutions, he followed Viv forward.

Suddenly, he felt his little finger being tugged, and then Lu Yuan leaned close to his ear and whispered something.

"What's wrong? Why does your complexion look so good one minute and so bad the next?"

In fact, from the outsider's perspective, Rhine's expression didn't change much.

However, after so many years with Rhine, Lu Yuan could detect even the slightest change in Rhine's face.

However, now was clearly not a good time to explain, so Rhine simply shook his head and said it was nothing.

Lu Yuan asked Rhine his question out of habit after noticing the change in her expression, but he realized immediately that Rhine was now in a difficult position to answer him.

So Lu Yuan didn't say anything more, he just squeezed Rhine's hand to comfort her.

Viv completely ignored the subtle actions of Lu Yuan and Rhine behind him, and silently continued to lead the way.

Before long, Lu Yuan and Rhein followed Viv into a stone mountain, where they found themselves in front of a long corridor made of metal.

They followed Viv, turning left and right in the corridor, until Viv finally led them into a room.

The room was a simple hall with four tables.

A table was placed on a high platform in the center of the hall, with a long table on each side below the platform.

Behind the table on the high platform, a masked insect was already seated.

Viv stepped forward, bowed to the masked insect on the platform, and then introduced himself to Lu Yuan and Rhine.

"Lord Lu Yuan, Commander of the Rhine Legion, this is the boss of our Netherlands Company."

Lu Yuan was initially surprised; he hadn't expected the mastermind behind the Netherlands Company to appear so easily.

However, he immediately realized that it probably wasn't that simple. Right now, Viv was just saying that this bug was the boss, but it wasn't certain whether that was true or not.

Then Lu Yuan looked at Rhine. Rhine didn't turn her head, but secretly drew an X on Lu Yuan's palm.

Now Lu Yuan was certain that it was a fake.

Lu Yuan didn't say anything after that, just stood quietly to the side. This was the tacit understanding between him and Rhine. In this kind of situation, everything was left to Rhine to take the lead.

Rhine stood still, showing no intention of speaking. In the end, it was the masked insect sitting on the high platform who took the initiative to greet him.

"Lord Lu Yuan, Commander of the Rhine Legion, welcome to Pluto Star. I am very sorry for what happened to the two young masters, so I am very grateful that you both agreed to attend this banquet and give us an opportunity to apologize."

"Since you invited us, why are you, as the master insect, wearing a mask and hiding your true face?" Rhine asked.

The masked insect on the platform explained.

"Please don't misunderstand, Commander of the Rhine Legion. I was seriously injured when I was a child, and my face is covered with scars. I wear a mask so as not to frighten you two. There is no other meaning behind it."

Lu Yuan thought to himself that this excuse was too half-hearted. With current medical technology, as long as you are willing to pay, removing scars is a very simple matter.

However, Lu Yuan didn't say anything, and Rhine didn't question this half-hearted excuse either.

"I don't know how to address you?" Rhine asked.

"Just call me Mike," the masked bug replied.

Needless to say, this is obviously a fake name.

In the Zerg Empire, this name is probably on the same level as names like Zhang San and Wang Wu.

However, Rhein also didn't say anything about the fake name.

Afterwards, Lu Yuan and Rhein took their seats under Viv's guidance.

As soon as they sat down, insects brought over various dishes, which was completely contrary to what Viv had said about the shortage of supplies.

Then, the banquet officially began.
