Chapter 29: The Planet Noé

Friday passed by quite peacefully, and the Disciplinary Committee did not come to cause any trouble.

The "photo" with the disciplinary committee member remained at the top of the trending topics, and some people had even turned it into memes. Opinions regarding the identity of the mysterious masked person were diverse and widespread.

Jiang Tang closed her neural interface and walked past a group of officers in white uniforms without batting an eye.

A hand rested on her shoulder. Xia Qiu, a cigarette dangling from her lips, remarked, "The patrols are increasing. Ugh, I get so annoyed whenever I see these white uniforms."

This person was truly elusive.

In fact, the reason it made such a sound was entirely due to the fact that it was moving in a posture that completely defied its anatomical structure.

There were other changes, too—changes that Ye Zhen could neither perceive nor fully grasp. Yet, in some mysterious, inexplicable way, he felt a subtle, intuitive sense that something magical was unfolding within his body, especially concerning the dragon-shaped phantom that had vanished into him.

"Dad! There’s no need. It’s just a waste of time and money. That Li Yan isn't worth it. I believe she will surface on her own one day. It would be fine if she stayed hidden, but if she dares to show her face, I won't let her off!" Song Chuyin's expression was so dark it seemed as if it could drip ink.

In the annual battle for viewership records, these two stations had even set records of over 2.0 in the same time slot.

"I think we should arrange them based on color coordination to make it look better; the way it is now is truly quite messy," Chun Rui replied, picking up one of the withered flowers.

Finally, Landon's gaze landed on a corner of the honeycomb-like structure, where there was a rectangular block about the thickness of an index finger and the length of a thumb.

"Don't worry about this matter; nothing will go wrong. How are things? The position of Crown Prince in the imperial court now belongs to the eldest prince, Yun Qinghan." The man in black wore a mask, still keeping his face concealed.

On this day, school began. Jiang Xiaozhu struggled to drag two large suitcases toward the Jiang University dormitory building. Compared to the scenes of three or four parents surrounding a single student, Jiang Xiaozhu appeared remarkably solitary.

She spoke in a rapid stream, leaving Landon somewhat bewildered as to what her true purpose was.

His eyes radiated a profound respect for life, a love for nature, and a belief in the equality of humanity—a glow that made people trust and believe in him.

Lu Gou would treat Yao Ruixue like a younger sister, though there was still a distance that kept it from being the bond of a true sibling. Someone like Lu Feng was destined never to be overly tethered by family ties, nor would he ever dote on a sister like a normal brother.

This desire might initially be nothing more than a fleeting, impractical thought. Yet, under the influence of the jade pendant, it would take root deep within the holder's heart. Every time the thought resurfaced, they would be unable to control themselves, and over time, they would come to believe that this wish must be fulfilled, turning it into an obsession they were unwilling to abandon.

The Behemoth was over 2,400 feet long—a super-colossal beast of more than 700 meters—with a long-range attack reach of over 1,000 meters. A dragon might be able to evade it in the sky, but for Mithius, who could move no more than 200 meters at a time, dodging was exceptionally difficult.

However, come to think of it, charity begins at home. Since he only had this one younger sister, he might as well take this opportunity to call her along, so that when Mithius returned home beaming with pride, he wouldn't complain that he had forgotten about her.

Regardless of the cost, as long as there was even a glimmer of hope to help the Empire, they were willing to give it a try.

In the war against the Darkborn, humanity had always been in a defensive posture, so shrinking back had become a habit.

Seeing her cry, Qin Huixian felt a pang of heartache, yet deep down, once the seeds of doubt were sown, they were not so easily uprooted.

Amidst the chorus of conflicting opinions, the fat man sat down in frustration, and Mithius turned his head back as well. Even now, his sister's name had yet to be called.
