The next morning, Xiao Ran and his family gathered in the living room on the first floor. Xiao Ran's parents each held a baby in their arms. They looked at the big family in the living room with mixed feelings and happiness.
Because Xiao Ran was so successful, his close relatives who lived in the same manor did not come to disturb him last night. But this morning, all of them came to greet Xiao Ran and build a good relationship with him.
However, when he saw Xiao Ran's family and his wives, who were so beautiful that he didn't dare to look at them directly, his emotions were complicated. This was especially so for the men of Xiao Ran's generation. Their gazes were filled with envy.
Xiao Ran was also smiling throughout the whole process. After being a big shot for so long, he had suddenly become a junior after returning to this side. Being able to see his family living in harmony and health was a very important feeling to Xiao Ran. He also liked this feeling very much.
It was not until the servants in the manor came to Xiao Ran and told him that someone came to visit that Xiao Ran slowly stopped smiling and stood up.
His movement attracted the attention of the whole family, which made Xiao Ran smile again. "It's okay. You guys go ahead and play games or mahjong. I'm going to meet someone."
"Okay. Zhao, Yaoyao, Renard, come with me."
Reynold was bored staying in the house. Apart from responding to people who came to greet him, he spent most of his time fiddling with his personal terminal.
After arriving at another building, Xiao Ran saw Major Luo and a few other people in military uniforms standing inside. A few years had passed in this world, but Major Luo's appearance hadn't changed much. However, the people around him weren't the same as before.
After seeing Xiao Ran, Major Luo walked directly to him and held out his hand to Xiao Ran with excitement and joy. "Mr. Xiao, you're finally back. I've been waiting for this day for a long time. Now that you're back, are you going to leave again?"
Xiao Ran smiled and shook hands with him. "I just came back to have a look. Sooner or later, I'll have to leave. But this time, I'll stay here for a few more days. It'll be more convenient for me to come back in the future. Thank you for taking care of my family over the years."
Major Luo shook his head and said, "No, this is what we should do. You've helped us so much and asked your men to help us do so many things. If we can't even do this well, it would be a waste of Mr. Xiao's help."
Xiao Ran smiled and raised his hand. "Let's sit down and talk."
Both parties sat down. Xiao Ran said, "In addition to seeing my family, I have two other important things to do. The first is the current problem Earth is facing. You probably know about the things inside. The existence of that place is mainly to protect Earth from the invasion and influence of other dimensions and to maintain the balance between the worlds.
"However, we don't know exactly how it works. This time, I came back to confirm this point. However, this doesn't have much to do with you. After all, the inside will provide protection to Earth, and the people outside really don't have the ability to interfere too much."
"It's mainly to ensure the safety of this planet. No matter what, I was born and raised here. My family is here, and my home is here.
"Secondly, I've brought you some things. Previously, I was in a hurry and didn't prepare much. Furthermore, considering that you don't have the strength to protect the things I left behind, I only left some basic technology for you. But this time, I've brought more technology that you can use."
"Military, civilian, material, medical, energy, and so on. In addition, I brought you a batch of mechas and a space battleship. It's mainly a space battleship. It's about two thousand meters long and five hundred meters wide. You need to find a suitable place to settle it."
Xiao Ran raised his hand and introduced Renard to Major Luo. "This is my technical supervisor, Renard. Another technical supervisor is currently dealing with some things. If the research institute we used before is still there, the two of them can ensure that at least two days a week will be there to provide technical guidance to you.
"There's another person, the captain of my guards. If possible, he will assist you in training a batch of powerful pilots and a batch of special combat personnel."
Major Luo furrowed his brows slightly. It was a good thing that Xiao Ran had given them the things that he had mentioned. Moreover, it was something that all parties would take out to help them improve their skills and strength. They would also send technical supervisors to guide them and send people to help them train.
However, the more it was like this, the more Major Luo felt that something was wrong. It wasn't that he felt that Xiao Ran was wrong, but he felt a sense of urgency from Xiao Ran's words.
Major Luo's expression couldn't be hidden from Xiao Ran. Xiao Ran smiled. "You feel it? Yes, it's urgency. "
"The situation on Earth is too complicated, very complicated. The universe is very, very big. Do you know how many civilizations, forces, and empires there are outside the universe? The world has never been single. You should also know that, but countless universes form one dimension. There are more dimensions beyond one dimension. These dimensions are not peaceful. "
"And Earth is in a very special situation. It's difficult for me to explain to you what's going on. In fact, even I don't completely understand it, so all I can do is to help you improve as soon as possible and truly obtain the ability to protect yourselves. This is to prevent Earth from being thrown to another dimension by a special force one day and I can't return. At the very least, you have to use this strength to persist until I find your location."
Xiao Ran suddenly smiled. "Hehe, I'm going a little too far. What I said might not necessarily happen, but the invasion of another dimension is happening on Earth now. I can rest assured that you have more ability to protect yourselves."
Major Luo nodded. "The research institute has always been operating. Mr. Xiao and the two technical supervisors are always open to you whenever you want to go."
"Mhmm." Xiao Ran nodded and asked, "How much do you know about those people?"
Major Luo knew that Xiao Ran was asking about the mysterious people. He shook his head and said, "Very little. They hide very well. At least in reality, it's very difficult to trace their true identity. Moreover, the people of the Burning Union also know what we know."
The Burning Union was affiliated to a special department in the real world. Every member of the Burning Union was a member of this department, and the Burning Union was managed by the higher-ups. This was also something that Xiao Ran had arranged.
However, in essence, other than some special personnel who were nurtured by the union, the true combat strength and old members of the union were actually Xiao Ran and Situ Yaoyao. For Xiao Ran and Situ Yaoyao, the importance of the union was far greater than that of the department. After all, their lives were completely tied to the union.
They didn't abide by the rules of the real world, but the rules of a real game that could take their lives at any time. Under the premise that the two didn't conflict and overlap, the people of the union were naturally willing to do what they could for the department and the country. However, there were some internal matters that couldn't be communicated with the ordinary people in the department. If there was some discrepancy in information, the department was clearly at a disadvantage.
Therefore, Major Luo said that the union knew what they knew, but there was still a group of people in the department who were directly under them. However, those people didn't dare say anything that couldn't be said. They could only bury themselves in work.
"But according to our speculation, these people are acting under the leadership of the union. Their goal is to eliminate some talented people and people who can threaten them. However, we don't know if it's one organization or multiple organizations. At the same time, we don't know the composition of these organizations."
"Okay, it doesn't matter." Xiao Ran smiled slightly and said, "It's enough that the people in the union have clues. After cleaning up the outside, I'll personally go inside to deal with them. If one day isn't enough, I'll take a month. If one month isn't enough, I'll take a year. Sooner or later, I'll take care of them all."
Major Luo could hear the determination and killing intent in Xiao Ran's words. Those people could have provoked anyone, but they had to provoke someone who could ignore the rules of the real game. They were really courting death. However, on the other hand, Major Luo felt that it was good to provoke these people. Their department didn't have the ability to catch and deal with those people. Moreover, keeping those people alive would also pose a great threat to the real world.
These people had provoked a jinx like Xiao Ran. Letting Xiao Ran clean them all up was also a contribution to the peace of the world.
Major Luo rubbed his hands and said to Xiao Ran, "Mr. Disappear, we have a presumptuous request."
"Go ahead."
Major Luo organized his words and said, "Mr. Xiao, not long after you left, the supply of invitations was cut off. Although a small number of invitations are still in circulation, it's very difficult to get them. Now all the people who go in are randomly selected."
"I hope Mr. Xiao can get us a batch of invitations."
"Is there such a thing?" Xiao Ran was a little surprised. Then he nodded and said, "I'll give you a reply after I understand the situation. Otherwise, I won't be able to explain myself if I can't get the invitations in the end."
"Thank you, Mr. Xiao."
Next, Xiao Ran and Major Luo talked about the specific arrangements for receiving the invitations. Major Luo was in a hurry to go back and report, so he quickly left.
After a few days, all the people sent by Xiao Ran returned. It was also during these few days that many inexplicable incidents of destruction happened all over the world. Some people said that they saw Gundams, some said that they saw Saint Seiyas, and some said that they saw Ghostblades, Magicians, Demons, and Angels.
Xiao Ran said not to care about the influence, so the people who went out did forcibly eliminate many people under the necessary restrictions. They were all people who had clues in the guild that could be traced.
This time, the departure was quite novel for Law. He saw a lot of interesting items and professions. In addition, he felt that those items were very special. He hoped to get more items to study. They were all systems that he had never come into contact with.
After such a ruckus, the existence of Extraordinaries in the world seemed to be somewhat impossible to conceal. However, with the passage of time and the efforts of various countries to cover it up, it was only a matter of time before what happened in the past few days was completely covered up by countless rumors.
Xiao Ran also entered after taking out all the things he had brought back to hand over to the higher-ups.
Once again, Xiao Ran saw the most beautiful and pure combination of human beauty, Eternity, who was as beautiful as a dream but also as beautiful as a lie.
"You're here."
"I'm going to answer the next sentence. Yes, I'm here." Xiao Ran looked at the emotionless projection in front of him and smiled. "I can come back this time because of you, right?"
Eternity said, "Yes, I opened the blockade of space. Since I knew there was someone like you, I have completely blocked the external space."
Xiao Ran raised his eyebrows. "So the barriers at the edge of the solar system were caused by you?"
Eternity shook his head. "It's me, but it's also not me. I only played a part in it."
"The situation that Earth is currently in has already caused the space in the solar system to become extremely unstable and chaotic. It's at a boundary between existing in this universe and not existing in this universe. I only stabilized the instability and chaos in the periphery and then used it as a barrier to protect the solar system."
Xiao Ran nodded gently, indicating that he understood. He muttered, "You took the initiative to open the blockade and let me come back. I'm afraid there's something you want me to do."
Eternity said, "We had a deal."
"I'll complete it. Don't worry about that." Xiao Ran waved his hand gently and said, "Before this, I have some doubts. I hope you can give me an answer."
"Go ahead."
Xiao Ran said, "About the solar system. Does it exist in the outer universe?"
"It exists, but it also doesn't. This Earth exists in countless worlds and universes at the same time. It's the most special existence in this universe."
"How much do you know about dimensions?"
"Dimensions are complex and overlapping. One has to use a higher level of vision to see through the overlapping dimensions. The solar system is the only gap in this overlap."
An image appeared before Xiao Ran's eyes. Pieces of paper were stacked together and then compressed infinitely. It looked as if they had become a whole. A needle pierced through a thick piece of paper and left a hole.
"This hole is the solar system."
Xiao Ran rubbed his head. "It's a little complicated. Combining the information on your side and the information on the other side … I don't understand the situation now."
Eternity was very relaxed. "The structure of a higher level world is not something that people from a lower level world can understand."
"The purpose of my existence is only to protect Earth. My power can only allow me to protect Earth. I don't know what the purpose and meaning of the other existence is."
