Why did you provoke me?

After a few words were exchanged, the roar of airplanes came from the sky. Qingyuan said softly, "It doesn't seem to be just one plane coming."

Teacher Sun nodded, "There are three." In the alien battlefield, planes are common, so it's not surprising that they can tell how many there are just by listening to the sounds.

The first plane landed, but the door didn't open. The other two planes landed on either side of the first one, and fully armed personnel disembarked.

Yu Meng's lips twitched. How much importance must they be placing on this to mobilize so many guards? Anyone who didn't know better would think it was someone very important. No, it was definitely an important parasite. A parasite that no longer called people, but only had a serial number. Suddenly, she felt incredibly sad!

Yu Meng stood still. The people who disembarked from the plane looked around, hesitated for a moment, but one of them still walked over. "I am the captain of the guards at the Skyhunting Base. I have been ordered to escort the parasite here. Is your supervisor here?"

Yu Meng said calmly, "I am in charge. You can just send the parasites directly into the laboratory."

The newcomer hesitated for a moment, but seeing that no one around him objected, he waved to the people behind him. The six of them walked to the door of the first airplane and slid out a huge, glass-case-like device.

Yu Meng's eyes narrowed. Clearly, this device couldn't isolate the alien; tentacles were extending from all around the cabinet. The six people seemed oblivious, carrying the device on their shoulders without even a flicker of their brows… well, Yu Meng couldn't see that. But their hands, legs, and feet were all very steady.

Yu Meng clenched her fists. She admired these people. They were fearless, even though they knew they might be parasitized.

She looked at Teacher Wang and said, "Teachers, let's go check if these soldiers have been infected. Let's save them first."

The captain of the guards at the Sky Hunting Base glanced at Yu Meng, stood at attention, and saluted her, but said nothing.

Yu Meng and Qing Yuan entered the laboratory, with Sister Xiu following behind. Her heart was filled with turmoil. Was this all Yu Meng faced every day? She was still a child. How could she still smile when she got home?

She thought a lot, but she never considered that Yu Meng might have some ulterior motive for bringing her here. She felt a pang of heartache and resolved to study hard so that she could help Yu Meng as soon as possible.

"Sister Xiu, this is a newly discovered alien. Please step back a bit. I'll call you if I need you." Sister Xiu agreed and took a few steps back.

"Huang Yan, you'll stay with Aunt Qing and be her assistant. Be careful to protect yourself." Huang Yan agreed.

Yu Meng and Qing Yuan stood together. "Aunt Qing, this person is only breathing faintly; the chances of survival are very low. Should we deal with the human first, or the alien?"

Qingyuan took a deep breath. "Yumeng, this is also your first time dealing with this kind of situation. When Grandma was here, we would deal with the alien. After all, its harm was too great, and we dared not gamble on its destructive power."

Yu Meng nodded, "My mother-in-law's experience is always right. We'll follow the old ways."

Looking at the alien in front of her, Qingyuan didn't know where to start. She knew she had to stay calm. This was Yu Meng's first time, and the fact that she could stand here quietly was already the best outcome.

Yu Meng carefully observed the alien in front of her. It looked like floating seaweed, swaying freely and casually.

Yu Meng knew she had to find the root of this alien phenomenon. In other words, she needed to know whether it was one or multiple.

Teacher Wang and Teacher Sun returned and nodded to Yu Meng. "She's just started parasitizing and hasn't had a chance to grow yet." They handed Yu Meng a small box, saying, "We can only put it here for now, but it's not safe."

Yu Meng glanced outside the laboratory; everyone was saluting towards it. They stood guard outside, without questioning why there were only a few people there.

Secretary Wu spoke to the leader, but he shook his head, clearly rejecting Secretary Wu's suggestion.

Yu Meng looked at the alien shape in the box; it actually resembled a beautiful stone. Only, it was very small and soft. She gently tapped the alien shape with her hand, and a smile involuntarily crept onto her lips.

Of all the aliens Yu Meng had encountered, those whose skin could be peeled off were all good things.

She lightly twirled two fingers and walked to the door. Secretary Wu saw her and hurriedly came over. Yu Meng whispered, "We want half of the mining rights from Lao Lei."

Secretary Wu's eyes lit up, and he nodded, indicating that he understood. Yu Meng then looked at the soldiers standing there, "Take them down to rest in batches; you don't all need to stay and guard. I will inform you as soon as there are results."

Qingyuan watched Yu Meng leave, and when she returned, she looked at her questioningly. Yu Meng blinked and smiled slightly.

Qingyuan stepped forward and whispered, "Good stuff?" Yu Meng's smile flashed across her face.

Yu Meng stood before the container once more. Perhaps the scent of her kind lingered on her hands; with Yu Meng's arrival, the tentacles swayed even more joyfully. Some had even wrapped themselves around Yu Meng's fingers.

Yu Meng's fingers twitched slightly. Ten minutes later, Yu Meng looked at the thing in her hand. No matter how she looked at it, it looked like fruit pulp, white and soft. She had an urge to take a bite.

Yu Meng passed the object through everyone's hands. Qing Yuan was the first to reach out, and sure enough, the tentacles wrapped around Qing Yuan's fingers.

After a long time, Qingyuan's brows furrowed more and more, and finally she gave up, "No, I can't peel it off."

Yu Meng looked at the other people, and after an hour, it still didn't work.

Yu Meng looked at Sister Xiu behind her and said, "Sister Xiu, do you dare to give it a try?"

Qingyuan wanted to stop it, but after thinking about it, she gave up. This thing looked scary, but when it wrapped around your fingers, it felt docile. It had no intention of attacking.

Sister Xiu was still scared, but seeing them standing there seemingly unharmed, she said, "Sister Xiu, aliens don't easily parasitize mask revealers; the lines in their brains are their nemesis."

Xiu Jie took a deep breath and stood beside Yu Meng. Yu Meng put the thing in her hand into Xiu Jie's hand, saying, "It just looks scary."

Xiu Jie believed that Yu Meng wouldn't harm her, so she mustered up her courage and approached. When the tentacles wrapped around her, Xiu Jie's heart almost jumped out of her chest. Slowly, Xiu Jie felt that they seemed to welcome her. They were complaining that her clothes were too small.

Xiu Jie's eyes widened involuntarily. "Yu Meng, they seem to be complaining."

Yu Meng nodded, "Then you should help them."

Qingyuan looked at Sister Xiu, wondering why she didn't feel the same way. She only knew that these aliens wouldn't attack her.

Xiu Jie's techniques were basically taught by Da Li, and Da Li was taught by Yu Meng step by step.

At this moment, Sister Xiu was full of confidence. Her hands moved rapidly and rhythmically. In a short while, Sister Xiu held two white objects in her hands and stretched them out in front of Yu Meng.

"Aunt Qing, hurry up and pack it up. This is good stuff."

Qingyuan looked at Xiujie with a gleam in her eyes that seemed to want to devour her whole.

Yu Meng stepped forward. "This is my sister. Your thoughts are useless."

Qingyuan touched her nose. "I didn't say anything, did I?"

Yu Meng pointed at the alien, "What should we do? We can't just leave all our stuff at home like this."

Teachers Wang and Sun stared intently at Qingyuan. "This is a rare opportunity. We'll just leave them one main body to get by. We can't give them the rest."
