After a long while, Lin Xiao appeared at the laboratory entrance, supporting his lower back. Behind him followed Qi Lin, her face flushed red and her walk somewhat awkward.
Lin Xiao had no actual combat experience and had thrown out his back. It hurt terribly now.
"You're back? Why were you gone for so long?"
Lian Feng looked at their somewhat bedraggled appearance and asked in confusion.
"Huh? What's that smell?"
"No, I stepped in dog shit. Qi Lin ran too fast, and I chased her for ages before catching up. I even threw out my back!"
Naturally, Lin Xiao would not tell Lian Feng what he had been doing. He was absolutely ecstatic inside.
He had once been obsessed with research and felt little toward girls, but now he had finally experienced what it felt like to be a man.
It was a feeling that could make someone insanely addicted. No wonder there were so many perverts in the world.
"You two really are something. One twisted her ankle, the other threw out his back. Go get some rest. Oh, right, Leina is awake."
Lian Feng looked at them speechlessly. They truly never let anyone stop worrying about them, like a pair of children.
"Sister Lian Feng, I'm going to take a shower first."
Qi Lin's cheeks were rosy, making her look especially alluring. After saying that, she slipped into the bathroom in the lounge.
"Hehe, what a great figure."
"What did you say?"
"Uh, I said you all keep yourselves in great shape. Come on, let's go see Leina first."
At that moment, Leina sat gloomily in a recliner, staring lifelessly at the ceiling. She apparently had yet to recover from the blow.
"Damn, that's a textbook Ge You Lay."
"You bastard, you're back! What am I supposed to do now?"
The moment Leina saw Lin Xiao, she jumped up and complained tearfully, her face full of grievance.
"The news has already spread. It's too late for you to back out now, so hurry up and tell me about Constant Heart Energy Drive Technology!"
"You make it sound so easy. Aren't you afraid Pan Zhen will blow up the sun? I need to tell my grandfather first. You've really gotten me killed! Is your Earth cursed or something? Last time, the Fierce Sun Civilization fought Sun Wukong on Earth like there was no tomorrow. This time I came here to have fun and ran into you, and you screwed me over completely!"
After saying that, Leina stood up on her own and swayed toward the door.
"Where are you going?"
"Damn it, do I need to report to you wherever this goddess goes?"
"Yes. You're my fiancée now."
"Fuck. I'm going to train those bastards in the Super Soldier Company!"
Leina felt like her head was about to explode. How had she just said something like that? And now, just like that, she had somehow gained a fiancé. She had no idea what expression Pan Zhen would have when he found out.
"You don't need to worry about those people. The Super God Company and the Super Soldier Company are training together now. Qiang Wei and Crow will take care of them."
"I... I'll go buy you a bed, okay? Anyway, I'm going out, and you can't stop me. All my clothes got blown to pieces too, so I need to go buy some."
Lin Xiao watched Leina run off and shook his head. He had only asked casually. She could go wherever she wanted.
"Come on, Lian Feng. Let's work on today's topic. I want to use Micro Wormhole Transportation Technology to build a long-range energy transmission channel. That would make combat much easier!"
"That won't be difficult. The main issue is designing concealment and anti-interference measures."
"Mm. Before the next major battle, I also want to improve the mech. I've already designed the concept for a third-generation mech."
The two headed deeper into the laboratory. Too much had happened today, and they had already delayed a lot of research time.
"Oh, right. I melted down Blue Star Generation One and your Blue Gold weapons. I'm preparing to create the second-generation Blue Star God-Slaying Gun. Physical bullets consume too much Blue Gold, so I want to integrate Super Blue Gold into it."
"If that's the case... time is too tight. Leave spatial energy transmission to me!"
"Alright. Looks like we'll have to work without sleep or food for a while."
From then on, Lin Xiao threw himself wholeheartedly into researching new technology.
Leina really did buy an enormous waterbed. For some unknown reason, she even moved in as well.
Although the two women had quite a few complaints, Lin Xiao was more than happy about it. Having one more fragrant goddess body pillow was great!
During this period, Lin Xiao and Qi Lin would always mysteriously disappear for a while. Whenever Lian Feng asked, Lin Xiao said they had gone out to relax. Sometimes he said they went to the rooftop, other times to the park.
The joy in both body and mind accelerated their technological progress tremendously, and his brain development level unknowingly reached 40%.
Not only were his original abilities greatly enhanced, Lin Xiao also gained a new ability: Mental Power Manipulation.
He could control every object within his perception range, and this ability grew stronger with the passage of time.
After reaching 40%, the growth of his brain development level nearly stopped. Moreover, his powerful brain had already become an enormous burden on Lin Xiao's body.
If he did not reach 50% soon, his body would collapse sooner or later. The growth of the rest of his body simply could not keep up with the speed of his brain's evolution, and his food consumption had reached a terrifying level.
Overall, it was both good and bad. Lin Xiao had prepared a new dose of CPH4. If all else failed, he would force a breakthrough, though the outcome would be impossible to predict.
While Lin Xiao worked hard, his influence on the entire universe had already begun to show.
In the distant Nether River Civilization, within Death Song Academy, the newly restored Sno entered the ancient academy.
"My god, we received news from the Super God Academy. Di Lena, the chief deity of Lie Yang Star, has taken an ordinary Earthling as her husband."
"Is this the Earthling who defeated you last time?"
"Yes!"
Sno lowered his head in shame. Although Carl had said nothing about his previous defeat, he truly could not hold his head up before his colleagues.
"Hehe, don't concern yourself with such minor failures. Things are becoming more and more interesting. Perhaps we can look forward to something."
Carl picked up a blue warhead from the table and played with it. To her, it was merely average.
But since it had come from an Earthling from a pre-nuclear civilization, it could not help but arouse curiosity. Especially since she could not analyze the two primary substances that made up this metal.
"Hehehe... Perhaps the key to breaking the world lies on Earth."
In the deep cosmic starry sky, Morgana's Demon One had already arrived very close to Earth, and she too had received information from the Super God Academy.
"Queen, we've received a message from the Super God Academy!"
"Put it through!"
Morgana looked at the information on the screen with interest, then revealed a disdainful smile.
"What kind of bullshit is this? Some precious treasure of Lie Yang Star is getting married, so what the hell does that have to do with us? But the target is actually an Earthling? He looks familiar. Where have I seen him before... Bitch, I can't remember. Forget it, prepare to land on Earth."
After thinking for a while without results, Morgana decisively gave up wasting brain cells and began arranging the landing on Earth.
Angel Nebula, Melo Star, Angel City, Keisha Shrine. Right-wing angel Zhi Xin hurried before Keisha's throne.
"Your Majesty, the Super God Academy has sent a message!"
Keisha sat on her throne with her signature crossed-leg pose, waved her hand, and opened a communication screen.
"Oh, Earth? Lie Yang? Lin Xiao... Hahahaha!"
An ethereal laugh came from the throne. Zhi Xin, kneeling on one knee, was startled. Even Queen Keisha, who was always calm as still water, could become so emotional.
"Hurry and send this news to your master. I can't wait to see what expression He Xi will make."
"My master? Your Majesty, what does this have to do with my master?"
"It does. It has a great deal to do with her. Her precious treasure was stolen away. Contact her quickly!"
"Yes!"
Zhi Xin was completely bewildered, but she still followed Keisha's order and forwarded the information to He Xi.
"Hm? A message from Zhi Xin?"
He Xi, the Heavenly Foundation King, was leisurely drinking tea in her palace garden when she suddenly received a message from her prized disciple, Zhi Xin. She opened it curiously.
"Pfft!!!"
After reading the message, He Xi spat out the tea in her mouth in shock.
"What do I do? What do I do... I've waited more than twenty thousand years, you damned Fierce Sun Civilization!!!"
The news utterly ruined He Xi's mood. After waiting over twenty thousand years, someone had actually beaten her to it. She now had the impulse to immediately go destroy the Fierce Sun Civilization.
"Hey, old hag, your expression is very pleasing to look at!"
Just as He Xi was in turmoil, Keisha's projection appeared in the garden where He Xi was.
"Queen Keisha, are you here to mock me?"
"Mock you? Not quite. I merely came to see your wonderful expression. Sure enough, it's wonderful."
Keisha was very happy today. For her long and lonely life, seeing her old friend in such an awkward state was truly delightful.
"He Xi, we've lived long enough. It's time to put down our burdens and pursue things we truly like!"
"Data matching? But I don't want data to dictate my life!"
"Hehe, you still have the heart of a young girl?"
Keisha chuckled as she looked at He Xi before her. She truly could not understand how a lifespan of tens of thousands of years had failed to erase her girlish mentality.
And because of Keisha's words, He Xi thought of a scumbag who had toyed with her feelings, and her expression darkened somewhat.
"Go. Pursue what is real in your heart and experience a different life!"
"Where? Earth? I..."
"Yes. Go resolve the mistakes of the past and embrace what is right in the present!"
As He Xi listened to Keisha's words, they were like a spell, deeply tempting her. The figure in her mind, like a Sleeping Beauty, filled her heart.
"Alright."
In the end, He Xi gritted her teeth and turned toward her palace.
"You have found where you belong. Where is mine? Loneliness... what a terrifying word."
Keisha watched He Xi's retreating figure and murmured softly before disappearing from the garden.
