The Big Ben Research Institute!
Although this name had not appeared in Sheyan's mind for a long time, it had not faded away. Instead, it had appeared in Sheyan's mind many times, especially during the expedition to the Predator planet. The mysteries left behind by the Big Ben Research Institute were always suspicious.
Sheyan had a hunch that his strange background, Jinkuang's mysterious disappearance, and even the good luck he had gained during his adventures …. These seemingly scattered things were actually connected by a hidden thread!
And the head of this hidden thread should be the Big Ben Research Institute!
Thinking of this, Sheyan nodded and said, "That's right.
"If that's the case, the Prince will definitely get what he wants."
The Brigadier General let out a long sigh of relief. He looked calm on the surface, but his heart was beating like a drum. He knew very well the strength of the powerful Lieutenant General in front of him. He could probably kill everyone on this giant warship with just a wave of his hand. Angering him was obviously not a good thing.
As for Prince Pombaru, with the rapid expansion of his power, it was almost certain that he would be the next heir to the royal family. Being the mouthpiece between the two, it was only natural for him to do a good job, but if he did not, he would either be seriously injured or killed, or lose his position. Who would be willing to do such a thing with such a low cost-performance ratio?
After the members of Party Ace were transported, the engine of the giant steel ship suddenly ejected a blue tail flame that was two to three kilometers long. It propelled the giant ship, which weighed hundreds of thousands of tons, from slow to fast, and slowly disappeared into the sea of stars.

Sheyan closed his eyes as he felt the steady and determined push of the engine. He did not care about things like royal power at all. Prince Pombaru's invitation was just a ticket to enter the Big Ben Research Institute for him.
As for what the Prince wanted to know, and all the details …. The corners of Sheyan's mouth curled up slightly. Yes, everyone had their own price to pay, but Prince Pombaru's friendship was too cheap. Sheyan did not care about it at all. As for how the Prince, who was sure to be disappointed, would react? Sheyan did not care about that, just like how Noah Realm C never cared that the Empire would plot against it.

After flying through six wormholes and covering a distance of hundreds of thousands of light-years, Sheyan finally arrived at the heart of the Empire, a place called the Granite Planet, also known as the Central Planet!
It was a planet discovered in the 87th year of the interstellar colonization era. It was 745 times the size of Earth, and 95.18 times the mass of Earth. It looked like it was surrounded by colorful clouds and surrounded by many satellites. Its equatorial radius was about 60330 kilometers.
On this planet, the most famous thing was that it was the only place where one of the "Eight Wonders of the Universe" stone creatures, the Granite Beast, was born.
Even though the Empire spanned seven galaxies and ruled over more than 230 billion planets, the Granite Planet's special environment was still unique. This was not only because it had a climate that was more suitable for humans than Earth – in fact, there were more than 3,000 planets in the Empire's territory that had such a climate. It was also because of the miraculous Granite Planet.
The Granite Planet's appearance was similar to granite. If the two were placed side by side, it would be very difficult to tell them apart. The Granite Planet was a huge creature that grew by attaching itself to mountains. It was divided into liquid and solid forms. When it was in its solid form, it would usually be resting. It would cling to the surface of the mountain like a piece of gum, and it would often be so huge that it covered the entire mountain range.
Under normal circumstances, people would see the Granite Beast in this form. Moreover, in this form, the Granite Beast would usually be in a dormant state. Unless it was mining or building a road, it wouldn't be awakened.
When the Granite Planet turned into its liquid form, it would start to hunt. It wriggled and slowly melted. Then, it would slowly and gracefully crawl to another mountain range like a snail or a slug. It would then cover the mountain like a layer of membrane, secreting acid to digest the captured organic matter. Then, the surface would slowly condense into the surface of granite. It was flawless.
Because the Granite Planet moved slowly, very few animals would be caught by it. Most of the animals that became its food were insects and plants. For this creature that moved at a speed of no more than 5 kilometers per day, the only threat it could pose was its digestive fluid. Humans would never be its prey.
But people loved the Granite Planet not because it was harmless, but because the Granite Planet could produce a substance that was extremely important to humans. This substance was called cerumic acid, and it had replaced coffee as the golden drink of the new generation.
It had a unique taste and was addictive to a certain extent, about twice as addictive as tobacco. But most importantly, this substance had been proven to be very beneficial to the human body. It had been proven that people who consumed cerumic acid for a long period of time would basically not get cancer and their immunity was four to five times that of normal people (referring to future humans). Moreover, the effect of fresh cerumic acid (produced within 24 hours) was three times that of prepared drinks.
Therefore, in the situation where the Granite Planet could not be bred in any other planet or environment, it was only natural that the population of the Central Star skyrocketed. In just 50 years, the Granite Planet quickly became the economic center of the entire Empire. Another 10 years later, the Granite Planet became the political center following the arrival of the Emperor. More than 3.7 billion people were forcibly expelled from this healthy planet. Among these 3.7 billion people, there happened to be the grandfather of the leader of the 'rebels' who was in full swing.
Oh, the last thing worth mentioning is that the Cerumic Acid is actually the Granite Beast's excrement … Actually, there's nothing strange about it. It's just that the laws of nature are strictly enforced.
It was just like how leafcutter ants were fond of eating the sweet excrement of aphids, so they would take on the responsibility of protecting aphids. Ambergris was just the excrement that was about to form in the intestines of sperm whales. The raw material of civet coffee was cat excrement. As for the urine of a boy, humans had long had the habit of pursuing results regardless of origin.

Sensing the slight change in gravity, the trio stood up and couldn't help but stretch their limbs. This dull and tedious journey was finally over. There was no need to use his eyes, his innumerable sensory tendrils had already grasped his surroundings like the back of his mind. This was a secret military base, hidden within the mountain range, it was exceptionally different. The helipad wasn't filled with welcoming crowds as expected, instead there were armed soldiers waiting in formation. Apart from that, there were at least 11 laser cannons and 37 tanks that were fully charged, emitting faint rumbling noises.
The huge ship slowly landed on the airport. An officer walked into Party Ace's room and gestured for them to leave. Party Ace and the others did not mind. They followed the officer out of the room and took the elevator to the tarmac.
When the elevator slid down to the body of the vehicle, the door naturally opened slowly. Logically speaking, anyone who saw a large number of soldiers armed to the teeth waiting outside with cannons pointed at them would definitely panic.
However, Sheyan, who had long known about this, had already discussed a countermeasure with his teammates. Before the soldiers could react, Zi, Aziz and Ronnie struck at the same time!!
The tactical helmets and hair of the soldiers who aimed their guns at them were all reduced to ashes by the 'Force Barrier', but not a single one of them was injured. The trigger fingers of the soldiers broke quietly and fell to the ground, but their fingers were unscathed.
As for the light cannons aimed at Party Ace, six of them were emitting black smoke at some point in time. These six light cannons were the most powerful. Without these six light cannons, Party Ace could rely on the warships to deal with the light cannons instead of directly destroying the warships.
If they had not reached the Executor realm, Zi, Aziz and Aziz would not have been able to do such a precise thing. Although they did not hurt a single person, their terrifying control had completely destroyed the fighting spirit of the soldiers in front of them.
However, the door of the hangar silently slid open again, and at least twelve soldiers in giant exoskeleton armours strode out. These exoskeleton armours looked even more sophisticated and were shrouded in electric sparks. The weapons they were equipped with were even more astonishing: turbo laser turrets, laser cannons, ion cannons and tractor beam arrays. Their tough outer shells could even withstand a bombardment from the battleship cannons!
Unfortunately, when Aldaris unleashed his' Psionic Storm ', the twelve soldiers immediately fell to the ground, convulsing and vomiting like epileptic patients. These expensive armours, which cost as much as three Pacific-class battleships, were not damaged at all, but they were completely destroyed.
No matter how powerful a weapon was, without a controller, it was just a pile of scrap iron. Aldaris's' Psionic Storm 'was something that directly affected the mind. The material used on the surface of the armour was completely defenseless against it. But if Aldaris could reach the Arbiter realm, he might be able to go one step further and directly control the minds of these soldiers for his own use.
Sheyan surveyed his surroundings, as though he was looking at a pile of messy wooden puppets. He laughed and said.
He smiled and said, "Anyone who dares to do anything to a Lieutenant General of the Empire will be executed by firing squad, no matter which constitution it is. If you have any other tricks up your sleeves, feel free to use them. But this time, I can't guarantee that I won't hold back. " If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it at qidian.com.
