Starting with Crimson

Finally, Li Qingyu returned to the embrace of the sofa.

Just as Li Qingyu picked up the miniature Xishuangbanna bucket, preparing to drink a couple of sips of Qiqi water to soothe his mood and relieve the stuffiness,

Suddenly, a semi-transparent chat interface appeared in front of Li Qingyu.

A message popped up in the civilized chat channel.

"Chu Xuan: Look at the map to see who the red-named players are flying towards, and then type '1'."

Chu Daxiao?

Oh my god... this scene seems so familiar...

Li Qingyu blinked and scrolled up the chat history.

really....

Colonel Chu, did you just copy and paste this? That's exactly what you asked Angel that time, word for word...

Despite his inner complaints, Li Qingyu's body betrayed him.

"Li Qingyu: 1."

Chu Xuan: Then it's alright.

Hey, feed me... What do you mean it's okay now?!

It's fine for you to say that about Angel, because those top American players definitely had some trump cards up their sleeves.

But I'm not a seeded player. I'm just a weak and handsome guy who can't even kill a chicken. Colonel Chu, you must be in the habit of copying and pasting, right?

Li Qingyu: Um... Colonel Chu, I still feel a bit uneasy. If we run away now, is it still too late?

Chu Xuan: It's alright, don't worry too much. Once Otis sees the size of your oasis, he'll most likely avoid it.

Go around...go around?

Li Qingyu stroked his chin thoughtfully.

Colonel Chu, did you know our Oasis could attack? It could... but it can't attack things in the sky...

"Chu Xuan: Otis's target is probably not you. He wants to kick the goblin out first and end the game quickly."

"Chu Xuan: Among the three seeded players of the Abyss Civilization, the core main force should be Lilith."

"There's another seeded player whose situation is unclear, but he probably doesn't have the ability to move quickly, otherwise they wouldn't have sent the injured Otis to clear the field."

Hmm... I see...

Li Qingyu nodded.

As expected... it's pretty much what we guessed...

But Colonel Chu, how did you know he was injured?

"Chu Xuan: Otis is probably more afraid of encountering players from our Blue Star, which is why he chose to end the match quickly."

"Chu Xuan: Given the size of your oasis, he won't approach you easily, don't worry."

Li Qingyu: Yes, Colonel Chu.

"Hassabiot: XXXXXXX..."

Uh... this idiot's still alive...?

Li Qingyu casually closed the chat interface, and his slightly tense mood relaxed a little.

However, I haven't completely relaxed; I still feel a bit of urgency.

What if... Colonel Chu guessed wrong?

What if... Otis wasn't injured?

What if... they weren't initially interested, but seeing how big my oasis is, they decide to try and take it over?

These are all unknowns...

In conclusion, battle preparations must still be made; at the very least, the initiative to fight or not must be in our own hands.

As he pondered this, Li Qingyu opened the virtual map of Saha Star again to study it.

At this moment, the crimson light representing Otis was still moving slowly forward.

At the current rate...

Li Qingyu checked the time on the task panel.

Hmm...it's time, almost lunchtime...

Nonsence!

At a time like this, who cares about eating lunch...?

Li Qingyu reflected on himself for a moment, and then began to calculate with his fingers.

Otis should be here around two or three in the afternoon, right...?

I glanced at the husky lying on the carpet by my feet, its head bobbing up and down, about to fall asleep again.

Li Qingyu couldn't help but kick the husky again, sending it tumbling over.

What's the point of sleeping anymore... It's like I didn't sleep at all last night...

Please... you're a dog, not a pig...

Come on, let's go upstairs and go birdwatching with our owner!

.............................

United Nations conference room.

Ever since Angel and Lilith perished together.

The representatives from various countries remained silent, and no one spoke.

After all... it's understandable that the contestants from the Abyss Civilization are powerful, since most people don't know much about them...

No matter how formidable they are, everyone is mentally prepared.

But what exactly was that white light that Angel emitted before she died?

The atmosphere has been punctured!!

Damn it... it directly plunged Saha into a period of catastrophe...

Earth actually has such outrageous weapons?!

The desire for exploration in the hearts of representatives from various countries instantly surged.

However, no one dared to show it, and everyone was waiting for someone else to speak.

"I know what you want to ask, and to be honest, I don't know either." The US representative then fell silent for a moment.

However, under the watchful eyes of the representatives from various countries, he couldn't help but wave his hand.

There's nothing we can do... Angel's identity is top secret. Only the President of the United States knows Angel's specific information, and he really doesn't know what's going on.

"That white light, if I'm not mistaken... should be the talent Angel acquired in the preparation space..."

The US representative nodded firmly, analyzing the situation with a serious expression...

Reasons that even I don't believe...

After the US representative finished speaking, there was another awkward silence in the meeting room.

Fine, don't say it then... Do you think we're all stupid?

After listening to the US representative's ramblings, the representatives from various countries continued to watch the live broadcast on the big screen in silence.

until....

In the live broadcast from Yanjing City, Chu Xuan effortlessly shattered a door that was more than ten stories high and clearly not made of ordinary metal with a few light slaps.

What the heck is this? A Super Saiyan?

The desire for exploration among the representatives from various countries was once again intensified.

Another unspoken silence ensued...

"Cough cough cough..."

Under the watchful eyes of representatives from various countries.

The Chinese representative coughed twice.

"I know what you want to ask..."

"To be honest... I don't know either..."

He knew that if he didn't say anything, he was just playing along...

"Perhaps Chu Xuan acquired the talent to forcibly open doors while preparing for battle in the space."

The Chinese representative, equally earnest, recounted his fabricated reasons.

After the Chinese representative finished speaking, the meeting room fell silent again.

The representatives from various countries were inwardly chuckling...

The Mao representative glanced at the US representative on his left, then at the Chinese representative on his right.

Finally, I looked at the big screen again, at Xiaofu appearing on the live broadcast from Moss City...

At this moment, the hill made of crab shells around Xiaofu appeared even larger.

Sigh... I was about to say something...

But I can't just say...

How does one become a glutton?
