The four of them chatted and laughed as they came to the VIP lounge of Boston Logan International Airport.
Since Zhang Lisheng planned to take a private plane back to New York, he did not have a certain departure time and could depart at any time within the interval of the booked route. For this reason, the instant he entered the lounge, a ground crew member in a blue uniform asked politely, "Dr. Zhang, would you like to take a break first or board the plane right away?"
"I'll board the plane right away. Parting is the most uncomfortable thing. The longer it drags on, the more torturous it will be." The young man nodded and smiled at the ground crew. He turned around and kissed Tina before kissing Trish and Sheila's cheeks. Lowering his voice, he said, "You can read and study that book, but don't recklessly experiment on yourself.
I've been regretting handing over the book to you these past few days … "
"Baby, you've said the same words more than ten times," Tina said with a helpless expression. "I'll answer you one last time. Don't worry, we won't mess around."
"Okay, goodbye then." Zhang Lisheng nodded and waved at the girls. Under the accompaniment of the ground crew, he walked through the airport's dedicated VIP passage and entered his Boeing BBJ737 business plane that was decorated in a low-key yet exuded an extremely luxurious atmosphere.
Sitting on a specially made sofa that was the size of an ordinary single bed near the window of the airport, the young man looked at the sunny weather outside the window and began to plan his actions after returning to New York. He must go to Shrimp B1 Island no matter what.
Then, he must also ask about the 51st State of the United States Plan proposed by Edward.
Also, biology was his only hobby, and it complemented his witchcraft cultivation. Obtaining a doctorate was not his ultimate goal. Since his theoretical knowledge was not solid yet, it was necessary for him to return to Stanford to continue his studies when he had the time … The more he thought about it, the more things popped up in his mind. Zhang Lisheng could not help but frown.
"I initially thought that I could have some leisure time before the steamship was built, but when I think about it carefully, there are actually so many things that I need to do …" He muttered to himself and sighed. Without warning, the cabin captain's pleasant voice resonated in his ears. "Doctor, here's your Coke. Is there anything else that you need?"
"Baked lobster, oysters, sea bass chowder, two medium rare beef ribs, and a 12-inch double pizza. Thank you," the young man replied casually.
His request seemed absurd, but because he was a glutton in the eyes of those who were familiar with him, Charlie exaggeratedly customized a whole set of kitchen equipment and a freezer that could store a large amount of ingredients on the plane. In addition, during each voyage, there would be at least three chefs who were experts in various cuisines on standby in the cabin, so the unreasonable request became reasonable.
"Please wait a moment, Doctor." Upon hearing Zhang Lisheng's words, the tall and beautiful cabin captain replied gently and walked to the kitchen gracefully, showing off her beautiful figure on purpose.
Unfortunately, the young man did not pay attention to the 'beautiful scenery' in the cabin corridor at all. Instead, he took a sip of the cold Coke and picked up the phone on the armrest of the sofa to dial Charlie's number.
The call was quickly connected. Charlie's slightly exaggerated laughter resonated in Zhang Lisheng's ears. "Good afternoon, Boss. Is there anything I can help you with?"
"It's nothing special. I just want to ask about the 'plan' that Edward mentioned. How is it going?"
"Everything is going well. Even though I'm reluctant to say so, the disaster that happened in Boston's Harvard Stadium has increased the feasibility of the 'plan' a lot …"
"What does Boston's stadium turning into a crater have to do with our 'plan'?" Zhang Lisheng was stunned for a moment before interjecting out of curiosity.
"Although the government officially explained that the Harvard Stadium disaster was a terrorist attack launched by the gods of a different world because they were spying on Earth,
This shows that it's far better to adopt a soft integration attitude towards the foreign world than to confront it forcefully, especially today when there are more and more foreign worlds. "
"Ha! Observing the essence through the phenomenon? The human heart is really complicated …" The young man said with a hint of sarcasm. At this time, the broadcast in the plane resonated. "Good afternoon, Doctor. Captain Walter of the Scientific Star is reporting to you. The plane is about to take off. Please be prepared."
"Ha! Observing the essence through the phenomenon? The human heart is really complicated …" The young man said in a sarcastic tone. At this time, the broadcast in the plane resonated, "Good afternoon, Doctor. Captain Walter of the Scientific Star is reporting to you. The plane is about to take off. Please get ready."
"Did you hear that, Charlie? The captain you hired who is good at farce said that the plane is about to take off, so we'll have to suspend the call temporarily."
"Are you on the plane, Boss?"
"Yes, I'm planning to return to New York from Boston. Let's talk again in five minutes," Zhang Lisheng replied and hung up the phone.
The plane slowly turned around on the tarmac and drove steadily into the airport runway. It slowly accelerated and not long after, it continued to climb up from the ground, rushing straight into the blue, clean, cloudless sky.
By the time the plane had stabilized, several flight attendants sent oysters, grilled lobsters, and steaks to the young man. The cabin captain smiled and said, "Doctor, the pizza and sea bass chowder still need some time …"
"It's alright." Zhang Lisheng waved his hand to interrupt the beauty's words. While picking up the oyster to suck, he grabbed the phone and pressed the replay button.
After the call was connected, he said, "Charlie, let's continue."
"Yes, Boss.
Affected by the Harvard Stadium tragedy in Boston, Senator Heston, who has always held a hawkish position on Shrimp World No. 1, is likely to be accompanied by Secretary Chelsea, the highest official of the Department of Homeland Security who has resigned. The difference is that one of them is abandoned by the president while the other is driven off the stage by the voters … "
"Let's not talk about these complicated political relationships anymore, Charlie. Just tell me what you need me to do now?"
The voice on the phone became silent for a while before replying, "It's not the time for you to show up yet, Boss. After all, this is a 'big plan.' No matter how smooth it is, it can't be completed quickly."
"Alright, I'm just asking casually. Oh, the steak is getting cold. Bye, Charlie." Zhang Lisheng said and hung up the phone again.
Putting down the phone, he picked up the knife and cut a fat and tender piece of Wagyu into his mouth. With an admiring expression on his face, he muttered, "You've already completed one thing before getting off the plane. Your efficiency is not bad …"
After eating the steak, oysters, and lobsters, the sea bass chowder and steaming pizza happened to be freshly baked. Before the pizza was even finished, the flight from Boston to New York with a total mileage of only over 300 kilometers had already come to an end.
The Scientific Star slowly landed at New York's JFK International Airport and made a safe turn into the tarmac.
After the plane stopped, Zhang Lisheng took a large piece of pizza and left the cabin under the welcome of the flight attendants. For a VIP like him, he would be picked up by a dedicated golf cart on the airport runway, and a limousine would be used when he left the airport.
Riding on the black extended Cadillac, the young man came to his factory on the outskirts of New York.
After returning to the office that he had not seen for a long time, he locked the door and commanded the wizard gu hidden in the underground trench to shrink and turn invisible before crawling to his hand to reveal itself.
Looking at the crimson eight-headed strange worm lying quietly in his palm, Zhang Lisheng could not help but have an elated expression on his face. Stroking the wizard gu's rubber-like body and triangular head, he muttered a little excitedly, "It's grown! Since all eight of its heads have grown out, Red Mountain can be considered as grown now.
Then, I'll hatch that Manifestation's egg, and the wizard gu that I've transformed can be considered as complete. "
While he was speaking, the wizard gu lying on the young man's hand gradually became smaller. In the end, it turned into the size of a rice grain and drilled into his flesh. At the same time, several other poisonous insects that Zhang Lisheng thought had great potential also drilled out of his flesh and turned invisible before falling into the trench filled with blood and internal organs in the factory.
After finishing all these, the young man took off his clothes and threw them into the wardrobe. Using the lizard's power to nihilate his body, he passed through the wall and leaped into the sea. Then, he transformed his transformation power into wyrmdragon and soared into the sky, before flying towards Shrimp B1 Island.
After passing through the world's gate that had obviously expanded a lot, Zhang Lisheng soon saw the jujube pit-shaped island with an area of about 30,000 square kilometers that he was holding in his palm.
After coming to the sky above the island, the young man looked down at the emerald jungle and found the Wizard Li tribe's ancestral land before slowly descending. Before he could even touch the ground, the rolling clouds under his feet had already entered the eyes of the natives. All of the Wizard Li tribesmen who stayed behind to work in the tribe had already kneeled on the ground and began to chant prayers in a low voice.
A few seconds later, the Wizard Li headman, who heard the commotion, hurriedly ran out of a slightly smaller treehouse built next to the huge bark house enshrining the tribal book of history near the totem pole and kneeled in front of Zhang Lisheng. "Great Conqueror, the only faith of the Wizard Li tribesmen, the living legend, the source of glory, I kneel in the dust to look up at your glory and sing your holiness."
"Alright, stand up, Tugra. How's the tribe during the time I was away?" Zhang Lisheng looked down at the natives kneeling at his feet and asked.
"Great Conqueror, Wizard Li is becoming stronger and stronger. It has always been thriving," The Wizard Li headman stood up and replied respectfully, "The only accident is that a ship of mainlanders has drifted to the island."
"Mainlanders? Living mainlanders?" Zhang Lisheng asked in astonishment.
"Yes, Great Raider. There are more than 100 mainlanders who are alive. I've divided them into men and women and imprisoned them in the stone prison."
"Right now, the tribe's attention should be focused on the Hellfire Archipelago. The mainland is still too far away for us," Zhang Lisheng pondered and said, "There's no need to waste food by imprisoning those mainlanders. Just build them a raft and let them continue their voyage."
Anyone who had a little bit of sailing knowledge would know that building a raft and letting people sail was just a euphemism for 'letting them die.' Upon hearing that Zhang Lisheng wanted to use such a cruel method to treat the mainlanders without even meeting them, a complicated expression flashed across Tugra's face as he said, "Great Conqueror, I also thought so at first, but when I saw the Hellfire Archipelago's nautical chart in those mainlanders' hands …"
"Hellfire Archipelago's nautical chart!" Zhang Lisheng exclaimed and interrupted the Wizard Li headman's words. "Do you mean the nautical chart, Tugra?"
