"Second Senior Brother" Caught in the Crossfire / The Great Benefactor Kevin

"Furthermore, since Dihong Kun can't leave the Tiandao Palace, those second and third generation brats might not be able to cause any trouble..."

Kevin took a deep breath, feeling a little dizzy.

How could he forget that, according to mythology, the Nine Heavens Xuannü was an envoy of the Queen Mother of the West, who descended to the mortal realm from Kunlun...

Wait, there's more! Fu Hua's Oldest One name was "Jingwei." According to the *Classic of Classic of Mountains and Seas *, Jingwei was the daughter of the Sun God Yan Emperor Yan...

Everything is connected!

When the members of the Tiandao Palace Oldest One set foot in the Nine Provinces, in order to establish themselves in China, they merged the image of the Lieyang Star God King with the achievements of the two human emperors, Shennong and Xuanyuan.

After a process of deification, Dihong Kun became the Sun God Emperor Yan, while Fu Hua, succumbing to the circumstances, cooperated with the Lieyang Star Civilization as its "daughter" and became its spokesperson.

However, as their views diverge and their interests differ, friction between the two sides may escalate.

Afterwards, Fu Hua sided with the Queen Mother of the West, joining forces to seal the Great Wormhole Bridge in the Kunlun Secret Realm and banish the gods back to the Tiandao Palace...

"Is there really Queen Mother of the West in the Kunlun Mountain?"

Thinking about this, Kevin felt somewhat incredulous.

"Originally, it wasn't there, but the people of Lieyang Star are skilled enough to dig out this ferocious god..."

Ryze poured himself a cup of tea, savored it carefully, and spoke with a slightly teasing tone.

"Pangu Tomb..."

Kevin's lips twitched slightly. The Queen Mother of the West was actually the guardian of the Pangu Civilization's legacy? That's too ridiculous!

"Now?"

"Only the Nine Heavens Xuannü probably knows the specifics..."

"However, some things are more dangerous if you remember them..."

As the two talked, the atmosphere gradually became heavy. Kevin could hardly imagine how Fu Hua had managed to fight back in such a desperate situation and successfully drive the [gods] out of human territory.

It seems that her past is far more fascinating and bizarre than she imagined.

However, Fu Hua has been out of contact since leaving Super God Academy, and even with the Memory Fragment given by Hatsune Miku, it seems that no details about the Battle of Zhuolu have been revealed.

Ryze glanced at the sun sinking into the sea outside the window and stretched slightly.

"In short, the Kunlun Secret Realm is a very complex place. It remains to be seen whether the Tiandao Palace will leave behind some 'reasonable methods' to strengthen their control over the Nine Provinces..."

"After all, that Lieyang Star God-King wasn't exactly known for his good temper. Fearing that an escalating civil war in his neighbor's territory would affect his own backyard, he detonated a star in the Deno Galaxy..."

"Similarly, the things in Pangu Tomb are not to be trifled with. The Queen Mother of the West is just one example, not the only one..."

Although the bald man with purple skin appeared detached from the situation, he couldn't help but taunt Dihong Kun when he spoke of his regrets.

With just a few words, Kevin was able to deduce parts of Dihong Kun's personality from Ryze's account.

Domineering, arrogant, willful, and even ruthless in achieving their goals, they have nothing to do with fairness and kindness.

Tsk, the Heavenly Emperor of Lieyang, the Queen Mother of the Jade Pool, how come every single one of the people I encounter is someone I can't mess with?

At this moment, Kevin lifted the lid and realized that he seemed to have become the weakest link in the three-way battle, and he had a headache while smiling bitterly.

As for asking Ryze for help, the man immediately dismissed the idea without even thinking about it.

Even when his old friend Dukao's hometown was destroyed, this bald, wandering mage couldn't get involved.

Moreover, he just stated that he would continue wandering (running away) after half a day, hoping that this guy, who was clearly unwilling to take risks, would die without even knowing how.

Seeing Ryze finish his tea and the runes on his body flashing, indicating he was about to leave, Kevin rubbed his temples, his head throbbing, and couldn't help but complain inwardly.

Since waking up, he hasn't had a single day of peace; look at all the perverts he's encountered.

Previously, after debunking Cthulhu, the deep-sea god, Jenova, the creator, Final Herrscher, that wasn't all...

Now, Sumari Left-Wing Guardian from the old angelic era, is hiding in the Roman parish; who knows if he'll stab him in the back again...

He was just casually fishing in Siberia when he stumbled upon a bunch of Ancient Titans coming ashore—seventeen or eighteen of them in total. If it weren't for his strong foundation, he might have suffered a complete defeat...

To make matters worse, just as I was starting to unravel the mystery and uncover some details, I accidentally bumped into two prehistoric giants...

How can anyone fight against Dihong Kun, the ruler of Lieyang Star, Queen Mother of the West, the tomb guardian of the Pangu Clan in the Kunlun Secret Realm?

That's not how you play the game, being stubborn!

Kevin suddenly realized that sometimes quitting your job isn't so bad; you could spend money to buy an island, run in the sunset, and chase after your lost youth...

Ryze stood up and noticed the listless savior before him. With a hint of pity in his eyes, he stepped forward and gently patted Kevin on the shoulder.

"In fact, besides the Queen Mother of the West destroying the Kunlun space outpost, you Earthlings have also thwarted the return of the gods twice..."

"I'm not familiar with the Tai Xu Incident, but the one in the early Tang Dynasty might be of some reference value..."

"So, let's go check out Flower Fruit Mountain..."

As the purple-skinned wandering mage waved his hand and stepped into the Spatial Rift created by the runes, Kevin awoke from his dream, his lips twitching slightly.

This time, it really did blossom in two ways.

P. S.: Hmm, there's still a big plot hole about Pangu Tomb and the Queen Mother of the West later on.

To be honest, I did the math myself and found that Kevin really had a tough time. He rarely had a one-sided victory; he always won cautiously.

Let's do the third update during the day, and adjust our sleep schedule at night.

Chapter 725, Section 759: The "Second Senior Brother" Caught in the Crossfire

In the open valleys of Yunnan, a mountain troops that had been dispatched were digging simple fortifications overnight, setting up warning lines, and inserting Optical Camouflage generators along the way.

The soldiers glanced at the enormous figure in the center of the open space from time to time, feeling a mix of awe and curiosity. Following instructions, they concealed King Kong, the two Gastrea, and the monster Queen Mothra under a phantom.

At this moment, Kevin, who had just seen Ryze off and was taking a walk on the Hyperion, unknowingly stepped into the territory of the four prehistoric behemoths.

A fragrant aroma wafted over, and when the man looked up, he was shocked to find that the members of the Xiong Bing Lian and the Fire Moth were gathered in the open space, some eating skewers and others eating hot pot, seemingly without any sense of urgency.

"Am I protecting you too much...?" Kevin's eyes narrowed slightly as he pondered how to turn the tide, causing the commander to secretly write down everyone's names in his notebook.

"Hey, the drill instructor's here? Try my freshly grilled kidneys, they're amazing! Super nutritious!"

Just as the cunning fellow was thinking about how to give his subordinates a "surprise," Liu Chuang, with a menacing look on his face, saw Kevin arrive and hurriedly got up.

The gang leader, all smiles, handed over the crispy-on-the-outside, tender-on-the-inside meat skewers, perfectly mimicking the obsequious expression his underlings used to have.

Similarly, Ge Xiaolun's three buddies also sprang to attention, straightening up and each offering "tribute" such as beer, roasted corn, and Russian kebabs.

Du Qiangwei and the other women were relatively reserved, but they still obediently got up, eagerly wanting the instructor to stay for dinner.

After all, they're all adults. They've been tricked by this devil seventeen or eighteen times, so they know how meticulous and good-memory Teacher Kevin is.

Seeing that everyone was so sensible, Kevin's frustration at realizing he was going to take the blame again eased somewhat. He casually took the large kidney that Liu Chuang offered, waved his hand to refuse their attempts to stop him, and continued on his way.

However, as Kevin walked away, the members of the Xiong Bing Lian sat down with a sigh of relief and continued drinking, eating skewers, chatting, and joking around, making the atmosphere even more lively.

"These bastards are just faking it!" The figure in the darkness paused slightly, rolled his eyes, and took a big bite of the succulent kidney.

Hmm, it's chewy and doesn't have much of a fishy or gamey smell. There's a good amount of cumin and chili. If this guy were to switch careers and go sell barbecue in Northeast China, it would seem like a good option. Going into the underworld would be a waste of his talent.

As the man pondered, he casually tossed aside the fruitwood skewer and went to the temporary encampment of the Fire Moth, where everyone was enjoying themselves.

Surprisingly, Mei, the Mei, abandoned her extravagant spending habit of "only using the most expensive, not the best" and enthusiastically engaged in a culinary competition with the other three of the four others, using ingredients either sourced from military supplies or found locally.

Just as the competition was in full swing, everyone saw Kevin passing by and immediately pulled him over to be a food reviewer.

Mei's Japanese curry, enhanced with freshly picked Yunnan mushrooms, tasted even better than before; Rita's Dongpo pork perfectly recreated the flavor of the recipe, both of which delighted Kevin.

The barbecue, which was handled by Sirin and K423, featured Bella using Dragon Flame to start a fire, a unique and innovative idea.

Under the expectant gazes of his two younger sisters, Kevin took a bite of the slightly charred thing and, against his conscience, praised it a few more times...

When it was Kiana's turn last, this Nordic lady proudly presented her roast suckling pig, which looked bright red and glossy.

The aroma of the sliced suckling pig brought Kevin a sense of comfort, as if he could see the burning spirit of the Kaslana Family.

As the roasted meat entered his mouth, the presiding judge chewed with a smile... chewed... chewed some more... chew my ass!

The man's smile gradually faded, his gums clenched slightly, and he pulled the stubbornly unyielding object from his mouth with his left hand. Veins bulged on his forehead, and with his right hand, he grabbed Kiana, who was trying to run towards Mei she sensed something was wrong.

"Come on, sweetie, tell me what kind of meat you used?"

"Pork! Absolutely! And it's wild boar! I caught it myself!"

Faced with the captain's "eel-like" smile, Kiana felt a chill run from her tailbone to the top of her head. Her eyes blinked innocently, and she hurriedly raised her hand to swear.

"Oh? A wild boar? That's a level two or three protected animal here. You're in luck! How about a three-day prison tour? Everyone in there is a genius; I guarantee you won't want to come back."

Kevin grabbed Kiana by the scruff of her neck, making it look like he was about to throw this troublemaker to the police.

Kiana, who had recently been eating and drinking on the Hyperion and gained a few pounds thanks to Mei's cooking, immediately clung to Kevin's leg with a mournful expression. Then, she frantically pulled out her phone, pitifully trying to prove her innocence.

"What wild boar? Captain, you must have misheard! You ate this!"

When the little creature hanging from the tree by a rope on the screen revealed its true form, Kevin was slightly taken aback, but continued to ask what had happened in a gentle tone.

It turned out that due to the presence of giant creatures like King Kong, most of the Beast in the vicinity had fled. Kiana, who had been clamoring to catch a wild boar, naturally came away empty-handed, and her embarrassment was almost inevitable.

But just then, the quick-thinking Nordic young lady suddenly remembered her experience in the Memory Battlefield of the St. Freya Academy, where it seemed that the most suitable ingredients were available.

What's more, coincidentally, the Final Herrscher copied a data file from the Memory Battlefield when she launched the riot.

So Kiana used the greatly nerfed Herrscher Authority of Death to create the raw material for a roast suckling pig, smeared it with a thick layer of barbecue sauce, and made this tempting main dish.

After listening to Kiana's account, Kevin nodded slightly, then looked at the photo on his phone screen, a smile spreading across his face.

White skin, purplish-red stripes, two protruding fangs—it's a bit small, but this should be it.

Hmm, a mini version of the Emperor-class Honkai Beast Ganesha...

"Kiana, were you daydreaming again in biology class? We also talked about the composition and origin of Honkai Beast in history class..."

"Come on, don't be shy, it's tutoring time..."

At that moment, Kevin put his arm around Kiana's trembling shoulders and dragged her into the dark grove. The smile on his face went from bright to distorted, and from distorted to perverse.

"You idiot, Honkai Beast are silicon-based life forms! If you want to eat them, why don't you try them first!"

"Using it to make roast suckling pig! Roast suckling pig my foot! Ganesha is a giant elephant god! An elephant! Has he been eating too much good food lately and got his brain clogged?!"

"Copy this history assignment for tonight's online class 100 times!"

"They didn't do it on purpose! Tyrant! Dictator! I will rebel! I will report them to the head of the teaching department!"

Upon hearing that she was to copy homework, Kiana, who was originally a timid Paramecium, suddenly became like a cat with its fur standing on end, putting up a fierce but inwardly cowardly resistance, and incidentally bringing up her father Siegfried as a shield.

However, the dark grove was suddenly illuminated by flashing arcs of electricity, and with a scream, Kiana, her hair standing on end, her face blackened, and tears welling up in her eyes, was dragged out.

Under Kevin's coercion, the young lady, who looked bitter and resentful, obediently took out her homework from the Spatial Rift, picked up a small stool, squatted on the open ground to copy her homework, and muttered to herself from time to time.

"You scoundrel captain, all you do is bully me! When I get home, I'm going to get my old man to help me get revenge!"

The man waved his hand with a cold laugh, completely unrestrained.

"Go ahead and sue! If Siegfried dares to come, I'll beat him up too!"

Kevin then looked at the workaholic pig lying dead on the shelf, its eyes wide open, and couldn't bear to look at it.

They've already tried their best to grow into something inedible, so what else can be done? In the end, they were still treated like pigs and roasted.

After encountering this disastrous barbecue with his second brother, Kevin had a vague feeling that his trip to Flower Fruit Mountain to see his eldest brother might not go smoothly.

P. S.: Ganesha: NMD WSM!

Chapter 726, Section 760: Kevin the Great Philanthropist

The faint light of dawn shone into the captain's cabin, where Kevin, standing in front of the photo wall and holographic projection, stretched contentedly as he gazed at the intricate lines and the casually drawn symbols on the draft paper.

The man got up from his chair, stretching his stiff neck. The coffee on the table, which had been heated several times, and the freshly baked breakfast on the tray were still warm.

Raiden Mei, who had silently kept him company all night, was already lying on his sofa, fast asleep.

Like sunlight scattering golden rays through a girl's long black hair, there is a serene and sacred beauty.

Kevin smiled, took a blanket from the bed, and carefully covered the somewhat frail body with it.

However, before he could even savor the moment, the watch's crisp beep informed Kevin that the person he was waiting for had arrived.
