Anne's existence was special. She was a split from the Great Old One, but she had a kind soul.
Perhaps she had the powerful ability of the Great Old One.
Perhaps she also had a long life and a strong body.
She was young, but she must be very malleable.
If Anne was taken away by the Ancient One, she might become a cold mission execution machine like Xiang Xi, or even be dissected for research.
When he brought Anne home, he was determined to protect her with all his might, even at the cost of his life.
Therefore, he wanted to make the Ancient One give up on this idea from the beginning, at least not while he was still alive.
Xi looked at Mag with furrowed brows. This was a stubborn human, and also a troublesome fellow.
"She's a new life. She's different from Cthulhu. She should have the right to live a normal life, just like a girl." Meg picked up the mermaid album from the counter and threw it to Xi. "She also has the dream of becoming a cartoonist. This child has an extraordinary talent in this aspect."
Xi caught the album. The mermaid on the cover should be from the Lantisde tribe. The painting was very delicate and beautiful, showing the mermaid's playfulness and cuteness perfectly.
She thought of the album that the girl was holding in her arms when she went downstairs. There seemed to be a rabbit and a turtle on the cover, which looked quite cute.
"Only you and I know about this at the moment. If possible, I hope you can keep this a secret for me." Meg looked at Xi and said sincerely and seriously, "There's no evil in this world for no reason. I hope she can become a kind and interesting girl."
"I'll evaluate this incident and deal with it accordingly." Xi put away the album and did not immediately express her opinion. Instead, she said, "But now, we can talk about the earthquake two days ago. I'm sure it was caused by you."
"Yes, it was caused by me." Meg nodded honestly.
"You're not an honest human." Xi frowned slightly.
He had actually fooled the lie detector. His earlier answers had not triggered any reaction from the lie detector at all.
"A human's body also has unlimited potential, but a machine has a limit," Mag said calmly.
"What's that?"
"According to the manual, it's a nuclear-powered printer," Meg said.
"Nuclear-powered printing press?" Xi was surprised.
The Ancients' technological level was extremely high. Nuclear power had long been used in many aspects of life, including transportation.
However, the discovery of a nuclear-powered printing press on the Norland Continent was a little too abrupt in a world where steam engines had only just begun to be used.
"Where did you get this printing press? Is it a foreign civilization? "Xi's expression turned solemn.
The invasion of foreign civilizations was an extremely serious matter. Back then, when Cthulhu and the other Outer Gods and their servant races descended, it almost brought a calamity to the Ancients.
Meg shook his head and said, "No, it's an old equipment warehouse dug out from the depths of the ground. There are a few machines and some scattered books inside, including the printing machine."
"Can you show me those things?"
"I've already sent the printing press back to Chaos City. I can go and get the other things for you." Meg turned and went upstairs. After a while, he came down with an oversized wooden box and placed it in front of Xi.
Xi opened the box, and what entered her eyes were two dozen old nine-year compulsory education textbooks, three years of college entrance examination, and five years of mock exercises. There were also two Dragon Ball comics, as well as some old CRT TV sets, old-fashioned radios, aircraft carrier models, Thanos figurines, Black Panther figurines, Ultraman shapeshifting machines … and other strange objects.
Xi's expression became much more solemn as she looked at the terrifying Thanos figurines. This might be the concrete appearance of a certain Outer God.
She could not read the square words written on those old books at all. She needed to bring them back and let the wise ones in her race decipher them.
"That's all. You can take them all if you need," Meg said frankly.
"Thank you." Xi put the box into the equipment warehouse, and looked at Meg with less vigilance. "I'll find Josh and Rankster as soon as possible. If you have news of them, please contact me immediately."
"Happy working with you." Meg reached out his hand to her.
Xi glanced at his hand, nodded slightly, and turned to leave.
"Heh, woman." Meg touched his hair and watched Xi, who had put away the heavy sniper rifle, disappear at the entrance of the restaurant. Only then did he truly breathe a sigh of relief.
"System, do you think the wise ones of The Ancients will get lost in the sea of mock exercises?" Meg closed the door and suddenly felt a little sorry for the wise ones who were about to be baptized by the sea of knowledge.
"You're a little naughty this time."
This was prepared by the system according to Meg's request.
"Since there is an advanced civilization, does it mean that there are gods in this world? Are they just hiding in places unknown to us? So they can establish contact with their successors or clansmen in some way? "Meg wondered.
"For now, there is such a possibility," the system replied.

Maotai was extremely delicious and was a rare wine in the underground city. Moreover, this tavern also had a wine called whiskey that had a special smell of smoke. After one got used to it, it was equally fascinating.
However, the owner of this tavern had another identity. His real name was Meg Alex, and he was now the strongest human. He was also the strongest among all the major races in the Norland Continent that had been detected so far. He had already broken through the 10th-tier limit and could pose a threat to me.
He once participated in the battle to seal Cthulhu's upper body and made a very important contribution in that battle. In that battle, Cthulhu was attacked by lightning, and a part of its kind soul split off and turned into a girl … "
Xi looked at the half-written Observer's Diary in front of her and thought for a while. She silently deleted the last sentence before continuing to write.
"I made contact with him and obtained important information about the seal under Sky Island being destroyed. This matter is related to the Frost Dragon Tribe's chief, Rankster. I need to find him as soon as possible.
There was also a new development regarding the nuclear power incident in Rodu. It was caused by a nuclear-powered printing press. This item was excavated by Meg Alex from an underground cavern.
It was also excavated together with an equipment warehouse. There were many special items in it, including dozens of ancient books written in the alien language. I have obtained them and will send them back to the underground city for research as soon as possible. It might be related to the extraterrestrial civilization. […]
