Planet Yaldanke was a rather prosperous galactic neutral port. The composition of the people coming and going was complicated. There were passing business groups, galactic wanted criminals, private armed forces, and all sorts of people.
On the bustling street, two tall men were leisurely strolling through the streets. They would occasionally walk into the roadside shops and look left and right.
The two of them were Han Xiao and Kasuyi, who had disguised themselves to a certain extent.
It had been more than half a month since the last battle with Milton's team. Han Xiao had brought Kasuyi to Planet Yaldanke according to the coordinates left by the mysterious man. They had been there for a few days, waiting for the mysterious man to contact them again, but there had been no news.
"It's been five or six days. Why hasn't the mysterious man you mentioned appeared yet? Oh, right, I want this. Thank you."
In a self-service food shop, Kasuyi stood in front of a self-service vending machine and pointed at a bottle of green canned alcoholic drink.
"He should be observing if we've shaken off the pursuers."
Han Xiao shrugged and hacked the entire shop with Virtual Intrusion. The next second, two cans of drinks popped out of the vending machine, skipping the payment process.
The two of them were unregistered and did not even have an account, so they naturally had no money. He could only use Virtual Intrusion to escape the bill. With his standard, he would not leave any clues.
"Sigh, how many years has it been since I've been so poor? To think that I have to drink this kind of industrialized inferior drink …" Kasuyi pulled open the tab and elegantly took a sip of the light green liquor.
"We'll be fine even if we don't eat for ten years. I think you're just greedy."
Han Xiao was not in a good mood. He finished the drink in one gulp and threw the empty can into the garbage disposal box next to him.
The two of them stayed on this planet for a few days and had nothing to do. Thus, they wandered around and experienced the local customs.
At first, the two of them were still on guard against the pursuers, but the enemy did not come to them again. It was preliminary proof that the stealth device given by the mysterious man was useful.
Just as they were chatting casually, a piece of news suddenly appeared on the virtual screen in the shop, attracting the attention of the two of them.
"Urgent news. The Celestial Star Alliance Superpower Security Department has issued two new arrest warrants. The contents are as follows …
Bounty Target: Black Star, Supreme Mechanic. Bounty: 18,000 Star Coins.
Bounty Target: Ke Kezi, Supreme Psychic. Bounty: 16 trillion star coins.
These two wanted criminals have committed crimes together and are extremely dangerous. They have successfully repelled the pursuit team of the Ministry of State Security. If you discover their whereabouts, please report immediately. The contact information is … "
Seeing this news, Han Xiao couldn't help but laugh. "Oh, the bounty has been raised again. It seems that they really can't find us."
Kasuyi was speechless.
Every time he saw his name on the bounty, he would be furious.
No matter how you look at it, the title of 'Void Overlord' is more suitable for a top expert like me! Why did these idiots ignore what I said and take Black Star's words as the truth?
"By the way, speaking of fugitives, I checked online yesterday …" Han Xiao stroked his chin. "Our combined bounties are ranked second among all the fugitives currently on the run."
"That's second place? We didn't do anything heinous, did we? " Kasuyi frowned. "And this bounty shouldn't be high. Are there no more ferocious criminals here?"
"I don't think so. The Celestial Star Alliance was in chaos many years ago, but security is very good now. Most of the Beyond Grade As here are obedient babies. The two of us are considered outliers." Han Xiao shrugged.
"Then who's the number one wanted criminal?"
"An organization called [Eye of Insight]. The bounty is as high as 600,000 Star Coins, but there's no criminal record online." Han Xiao shook his head.
The two of them walked out of the shop, chatting while shopping. After walking for a while, they suddenly found a shop that was very lively. They walked in curiously to take a look.
The inside was a bit like a large board game center, but everyone was playing the same game. This was a card game called 'Ten Thousand Spirits Card'.
There seemed to be an event being held here. Every game table had four people sitting and fighting. There were many onlookers around. In the middle of the room, there was a small table with an exhibition cabinet on it. Three beautiful cards were suspended in it. The host was stirring up the atmosphere, constantly emphasizing that the winner could win three special cards that were out of print and so on.
The two of them gathered around a table and took a look. Their expressions became strange.
"Don't you think it's familiar?" Kasuyi whispered.
"Of course …"
Han Xiao's mouth twitched slightly.
How could it not be familiar? The gameplay was exactly the same as Wayne Cards, but the characters in the cards were different.
Why was there a similar card game here? Could it be that the will of the universe had spread all over the world?
At this moment, the two of them suddenly sensed something. They turned around at the same time and saw a person in the crowd staring at them with an inexplicable gaze.
Seeing the two of them looking at him, this person reached into his pocket and slowly took out a green metal piece. He waved it in front of the two of them, then turned around and left.
"That's the tracking device given by the mysterious person …"
Han Xiao immediately recognized it. He looked at Kasuyi and followed him.
This person walked and stopped, looking back at the two of them from time to time. He seemed to be deliberately leading the way. The group walked through the streets and soon came to a slightly older spaceport.
The guide opened a hangar. Inside was an ordinary general-model spaceship. He then opened the hatch and looked back at the two of them, seemingly inviting them to board the ship.
Seeing this, Han Xiao and Kasuyi scanned the spaceship with their perception and found no abnormalities, so they stepped onto the gangway and walked into the spaceship.
Soon, the hull shook slightly, slid into the jet orbit, and quickly took off. Outside the porthole, Planet Jardane was constantly shrinking in their field of vision.
Han Xiao retracted his gaze and looked back at the silent guide. He also took out a green metal piece from his pocket and said, "Can you explain now? Who are you? Why are you leading us on board? "
Hearing this, the guide adjusted his clothes and slowly said, "Let me introduce myself.
I'm a senior cadre of the Eye of Insight, Lucidias. Boss asked me to pick you up. "
Eye of Insight … Isn't that the bounty organization with the highest bounty?
Kasuyi subconsciously glanced at Han Xiao.
Han Xiao's eyes flashed and asked, "So, your boss is the guy who sent me the anonymous message?"
"My job is only to pick you up. He said that as long as you show me the Heaven Shrouding Apparatus, you will follow me. I don't know anything else." Lucidias shook his head.
"Heaven Shrouding Apparatus?" Han Xiao raised the green metal piece in his hand. "Is this the thing?"
"Yes, this is one of the core technologies of the Eye of Insight." Lucidias nodded.
"What exactly does the Eye of Insight do?" Han Xiao was curious.
"Sorry, without the permission of the higher-ups, I can't reveal too much information. If you have any questions, ask the boss yourself." Lucidias refused to answer.
Han Xiao beat around the bush and asked a few more questions, but this person remained silent.
Seeing that he could not dig up any information, Han Xiao stopped probing and began to think on his own.
During this time, he had speculated about the identity of the mysterious man. In the message sent by the mysterious man, it vaguely revealed that the mysterious man knew that they were outsiders.
Given the situation of this place being isolated from the outside world, Han Xiao felt that the mysterious man might have entered this secondary dimension earlier. As for why he found the two of them, it might be because this guy was trapped here and wanted to find helpers to help him get out.
Thinking about how the Celestial Star Alliance still did not know about the existence of the outside world, this mysterious man should not have revealed the situation of the outside world. Perhaps he had been lurking and secretly established a force.
The more Han Xiao thought about it, the more he felt that this possibility was very high. In this inference, the only doubt was the Eye of Insight. Although there was not much information on the Internet, tracing back, the Eye of Insight seemed to have existed a long time ago and did not seem to have been established by an intruder.
"Since the mission prompt is to contact the mysterious man, the other party is probably a friend and not an enemy. It's useless for me to think about it now. It will be more convenient to ask directly when the time comes," Han Xiao thought to himself.
…
The spaceship sailed for more than ten days and finally arrived at its destination. It was a huge mothership the size of an asteroid. It maintained a hidden state and wandered in the starry sky.
Shua!
The hatch opened, and the two stepped onto the mothership and followed Lucidias forward.
Passing through various areas, the two saw a large number of staff and mechanical guards. The entire mothership was heavily guarded.
The group passed through a series of authorization certifications and went deeper into the core area of the mothership. Soon, they came to a huge metal door.
"Boss is inside. He wants to see the two of you, so I won't go in."
Lucidias stopped in his tracks.
Han Xiao and Kasuyi exchanged a look and stepped forward. The metal door opened automatically, allowing the two to walk in.
As soon as they entered, the door closed behind them.
Han Xiao glanced at the layout of the room. Tubes extended from the ground and walls, connecting to a figure in the middle of the room.
This person was tall but stooped. Tubes were inserted all over his body. He had two pairs of green eyes, one big and one small, on his left and right sides. There was a scar on his face that blinded half of his eyes.
Seeing the two of them, this person slowly opened his mouth. His voice was deep and sticky, sounding very hoarse.
"We finally meet … outsiders!"
Han Xiao narrowed his eyes.
Sure enough, he knew that they were outsiders …
He had expected this and was not surprised at this time. Kasuyi, who was beside him, had the same reaction.
"Since you have invited us over, shouldn't you explain the situation? For example, who are you, why do you know about the existence of the outside world, what is your purpose in contacting us, and what is going on in this secondary dimension … "
During this period of time, Han Xiao had accumulated too many questions. Now that he finally met someone who seemed to know something, he asked all the questions in one go.
The mysterious man listened to the questions silently but did not answer immediately. Instead, he changed the topic and said softly,
"I know you have a lot of questions, but before that, I hope you can answer my question first … What era is it now in outside? Is the exploration era war over? "
Han Xiao's eyes flickered.
He actually asked about the exploration era war. Could this guy be a Primordial One trapped here?
As this thought flashed through his mind, Han Xiao gave a brief introduction of the results of the exploration era war. He only mentioned some insignificant general information before asking his own question.
Then, he asked, "Are you a Primordial One?"
"No, I'm not." The mysterious man laughed hoarsely. "I'm not the Primordial One you speak of, but I've seen them."
"Then who are you?" Han Xiao asked.
"I know what you mean. You think I came in from outside … but you guessed wrong. I'm from here."
The mysterious man's tone was calm.
At this moment, Han Xiao thought of many possibilities.
If what the mysterious man said was true, and the information about the outside world came from the Primordial Ones, then since he knows about the existence of the outside world, could his goal be to leave this world? Also, where did the Primordial Ones this guy met go? Why is there no record of them on the Internet? Could it have been deleted by the Celestial Star Alliance?
At this moment, the mysterious man spoke again, his tone becoming more serious.
"I know what you are most interested in now, and that's why I invited you … I need help to destroy this world and set me free, and this … is also the only way for you to leave!"
