Aurora knew in that instant that she was absolutely no match for this terrifying enemy.
Without another word, she made a decisive decision while she was still conscious as she flew backward.
As she sent out an SOS Signal, she also activated a self-protection device.
Her entire body was instantly enveloped by a gentle yet incomparably powerful halo of energy.
The very next second, the silver-haired man appeared before the halo in an instant.
"Damn it..."
The silver-haired man raised his eyes and glanced at the dark, profound expanse of space.
He realized that Aurora had already sent out an SOS Signal.
And this gentle, mysterious halo of energy before him contained unimaginably powerful strength.
He discovered that, with his power, he could neither break it directly nor use telekinesis to affect the target inside.
"Little girl, I bear you no ill will."
"Tell me your identity, and I'll let you go."
The silver-haired man stared at the incredibly powerful defense pod before him, clearly a product of a high-level civilization.
After narrowing his eyes, he explained calmly.
Such a powerful defense pod had obviously been designed to protect an important target.
A low-level civilization, or one without deep foundations, could never develop something like this.
"Hmph, dream on!"
"Do you take me for a three-year-old? You discovered my secret—would you really let me go?"
Aurora's voice came from inside the defense pod.
Hearing this, the silver-haired man's expression darkened slightly.
He gritted his teeth and narrowed his eyes.
Aurora, inside the defense pod, saw this scene clearly, and became even more determined not to come out no matter what.
At the same time, she secretly felt fortunate, even a little touched.
Back then, her father had paid an enormous price to commission a renowned Weapon Expert from District Fifteen
