Seeing Roland walking towards him, the dispirited uncle's eyes suddenly sharpened.
He also stood up and greeted him.
"Long time no see, Sammy Alfredo." He raised the corner of his mouth and showed a mocking smile. "Are you going to preach your mystical doctrine again?"
Xu Shenxing felt that the Alfredo should be beautified by his translation, because when the uncle called the hood's name, it sounded like he was spitting bubbles.
"Get out of my way, Roland. I have no interest in looking at your stupid face that even the aether would vomit. "
The other party did not hesitate to spit back.
But to Xu Shenxing's surprise, although the other party's voice was a little hoarse, it was not a male's voice … Of course, it was not necessarily a female's voice. Not long ago, Lux showed Xu Shenxing a group of otherworlders with more than 20 genders, which made Xu Shenxing very curious about how messy it would be when the white album came out every year …
He carefully looked at the other party.
Obviously, the robe and hood of this guy named Sammy were enchanted with some kind of spell, so that even the places that the hood could not cover would be shrouded in a layer of mist, blurring and difficult to identify.
But the spell had no effect on Xu Shenxing. On the contrary, the hood still faithfully performed its function, covering most of the other party's face, so that Xu Shenxing could only see the other party's smooth chin and red lips.
Suddenly, he felt that the other party was either a girl or a gay guy …
Of course, it was not impossible that the other party was a hermaphrodite like Lux.
So the Space Administration did not seem to promote cross-world love. Reproductive isolation aside, even the reproductive function was not the same … Just like flowers in a strict sense also belonged to the sexual organs of plants, but humans could not really touch flowers.
As for the boat and the gun, well, as long as you're happy …
"If you're not here for me … then your target is Lux or this little brother?"
The dispirited middle-aged man shook his head and clicked his tongue provocatively. "Tsk, tsk. Unfortunately, even so, it's useless. Our Space Administration is based on science and magic is secondary. Your occult studies are completely negligible to us."
In fact, most of the Archons did not feel much about the Ether Order. And in the Archons' training institutions, except for the relatively important Ether Order studies, almost all subjects related to the Ether Order were not compulsory courses.
The man in the hood ignored the dispirited uncle and went straight to Xu Shenxing.
"I feel the guidance of the aether." The man said slowly to Xu Shenxing and Mo Li, "You two are the most talented youths I've ever seen, even the aether, which has always treated everyone equally, seems restless around you. Do you want to go with me into the realm to learn the mysteries of the world and ether?
"I …"
The man interrupted Xu Shenxing as soon as he said the word "I".
"If you're willing to give up your position in the Space Administration and come to the Ether Order, I can make an exception to recommend you to the 'Leader' and His Holiness the Pope. You can skip the stages of being an ether priest, a psychic priest, and a broken wall bishop, and directly become an archbishop of the spiritual realm. In terms of position, you're even higher than that stupid guy. "
"I refuse."
But Xu Shenxing still refused the man without hesitation.
The trivial matters on Earth were enough for him, and he didn't want to find himself a job.
Especially when they couldn't even earn a single cent from this kind of work.
Although Mo Li did not say anything, she did not notice the hood at all and just snuggled up to Xu Shenxing. According to Xu Shenxing's understanding of her, the reason why this girl was so obedient was mostly because she was so depressed that she did not even want to move because there was no lotus root to eat. Her actions clearly showed that the girl was on Xu Shenxing's side.
"Don't refuse so quickly, you can think about it. I still have the patience to wait for your answer. "
The hooded man did not become angry because of this. After ignoring the dispirited uncle who was laughing (or mocking) on the side, the hooded man named Sammy flung his robe and walked back to his seat unhurriedly. When he left, he threw out a sentence.
"Maybe you'll change your mind soon."
After watching the hooded man leave, Xu Shenxing turned his head and asked Lux, who had been watching the whole show, "What did that guy mean?"
"I don't know …" Lux also shook his head. "The Ether Order itself is a very mysterious existence in Midčerda. Although it is known by the people, the research it has conducted is a mystery. It is said that 'the spread of information will cause the disappearance of the uniqueness of the mysterious research, and the loss of the mystery', so the information was sealed."
After a pause, he seemed to organize his thoughts a little, and then continued, "But there is no doubt that the Ether Order's influence in Midčerda and the surrounding second-class worlds (sovereign worlds) is still very large, and their positions are also very high. After all, the Ether Route that has almost changed the structure of the Space Administration, and greatly increased the number of worlds that can be explored is the result of their research."
"Don't worry, they're probably just bluffing."
The dispirited uncle did not seem to be worried at all. He snorted coldly. "Apart from the Ether Route, the Ether Order has almost nothing to contribute. But every year, they get a large budget, which is basically a waste of money! If this money can be invested in the Space Administration, we can definitely expand the team of Archons, and explore the depths of the multiverse! "
So that's the case, it seems like it's still a matter of money.
Xu Shenxing understood.
"Speaking of which, Mr. Xu, why did you refuse the other party's invitation without hesitation?"
Lux asked curiously.
"Nonsense, the money I earn here can't be used on Earth!" Xu Shenxing straightforwardly revealed his true nature of being a money-grubber.
"But we provide currency exchange here, right?"
Lux looked surprised. "Although the stock of currency on Earth is not much, it shouldn't be a problem for you if you don't intend to exchange a large amount of money."
Simply put, it was impossible for a poor man like Xu Shenxing to exchange all the currencies.
"What?!" Xu Shenxing was also shocked. "Why didn't you say so earlier …"
Then he began to be in a dilemma. "How about I go over and surrender now, what do you think?"
"Then are you going to borrow my head next?" The dispirited uncle said with a straight face.
It seemed that this dispirited uncle also knew some of Earth's allusions.
This made Xu Shenxing curious. After all, according to Lux, Earth was only a fourth type world (unconfirmed world). Logically speaking, it shouldn't be on the Space Administration's investigation list. As a member of the Space Administration, it was strange for him to know about Earth's allusions.
"Can I borrow your head?" Xu Shenxing's face was full of surprise.
He didn't intend to delve too deeply into the situation. Originally, he and Mo Li only planned to come here for a day trip, and didn't want to get involved in strange and troublesome matters.
"Nonsense, of course not! Hurry up and sit down. In a while, the end-of-year presentation will begin. "
The dispirited uncle glared at him, but of course, he couldn't pierce through Xu Shenxing's face.
After a short while, a group of people filed out of the tunnel, causing the entire grandstand to become slightly more crowded.
"Do you see the fat man leading the way? He's one of the people in charge of the Dimensional Garrison. He's in charge of the Midčerda world's internal defense. " On the way, the uncle introduced the people who filed in to Xu Shenxing. This time, his target was a man with a big belly: "Although it can't be said that he's doing nothing, it's indeed not strict enough."
"Because this is a relatively inner world, right? With other worlds around, it's understandable that the local defense is a little lax. "
Lux also explained to Xu Shenxing.
They didn't know if he had vaguely heard Xu Shenxing and the others talking about him, but the potbellied man only glanced at them. His small triangular eyes were full of cunning and contempt. After that, the other party didn't come looking for trouble like ordinary villains. He didn't come looking for trouble and just ignored them.
"Since there's still some time left, I might as well tell you the rules of the armed robbery." The dispirited uncle tried his best to cheer up and teach the students.
"Now they don't even bother to cover it up …"
In fact, the so-called end-of-year statement meeting was not as high-end as Xu Shenxing had imagined. The entire rhythm and process was basically the various departments taking turns to go on stage and then start bragging. The more they bragged about themselves, the higher their points in the hearts of the leaders, and the more budget they might get later …
However, there was a problem with this, and that was to reduce the opponent's points. While the opponent was bragging, the others would also ask some questions. It was easy to imagine that these questions were basically of the sharp and harsh type. When the speaker was forced into a corner, it was very easy for them to roll up their sleeves and beat someone up. Some people's fighting skills weren't that good, and they would accidentally beat up innocent people. Some energy creatures would even directly blow up many people and bring disaster to many people.
In the end, more and more people participated in the chaos. Until now, the current situation was actually born. The concept of 'every year's presentation is a battle' was accepted by everyone and became an official event …
☆
In fact, other than Xu Shenxing and the others in the Space Administration, it wasn't like the dispirited uncle said that there was no one else. Although there were fewer people compared to the other two departments, there were still many people in the Space Administration.
However, from the translucent screen on the badge, it seemed that Lux was the only Administrator. The others were either logistics or engineers.
Obviously, these technical jobs were only auxiliary and couldn't be used as gankers. Therefore, foreign aid like Xu Shenxing was valuable.
… Although the dispirited uncle who invited Xu Shenxing over probably didn't realize that he was sitting next to a pair of peerless monsters.
"It's starting."
Following the uncle's low voice, the end-of-year presentation finally started as normal.
The curtains were pulled open when the 'leader' slowly opened his eyes. The scene was a bit frightening, but Xu Shenxing was quite interested. After all, he had never seen such a creature before.
The big egg … The light source in this huge space came from the light spots on the wall that looked like wall lamps. At that moment, all the light spots were like fireflies. They suddenly flapped their wings (although they didn't have wings) and formed a dazzling galaxy in front of everyone.
Then, a thin and tall man appeared in the Milky Way.
Because of the distance, the other party didn't look very tall, especially with the 'leader' behind him as a comparison. But if one looked closely, they would find that the other party was more than five meters long, and the length of his arms was even more terrifying.
He was wearing a red suit with a black belt and a white shirt underneath. There was also a small and comical cylindrical hat on his head. He wore a pure white mask on his face. There weren't even any eyeholes. It was as if he didn't have a face.
"Do you still invite a host for your end-of-year presentation?"
Xu Shenxing asked with interest.
"What host?"
The dispirited uncle asked in confusion.
"Is that the guy dancing in the light spots?"
Xu Shenxing pointed to the tall and thin guy.
But the dispirited uncle widened his eyes and looked over, but he couldn't find the person that Xu Shenxing was talking about.
This suddenly made Xu Shenxing feel that something was wrong.
So he asked Lux next to him, but he found that Lux also couldn't see the man.
Just when Xu Shenxing was hesitating whether to arrest the other party, Mo Li, who was leaning on Xu Shenxing with a 'boring life' expression, suddenly opened his eyes.
"Mr. Landlord, are they going to set off fireworks?"
"Fireworks?"
Before Xu Shenxing's voice fell, there were suddenly many powerful explosions on the 'leader'. Several of them were even more destructive than a nuclear explosion, so much so that the platform far away was directly hit by the storm. Several people who didn't react in time were directly blown off their chairs and fell into the bottomless abyss.
After the storm caused by the explosion, what appeared in front of everyone was an even worse scene.
The 'leader', whose body size was close to the size of Earth, had become a floating piece of meat in the explosion just now.
The gigantic head was quietly floating in the air. From its lower jaw, its entire body had disappeared. Only its terrifying giant eyes were still staring at the people on the platform. It was as if it was silently interrogating them, causing everyone's heart to sink to the bottom of the valley.
