Liang Mountain

In the afternoon, Moei arrived.

After taking a short rest, Yan took Azhui and Moei to Super God Academy.

Meanwhile, Yun Zhao called for Qi Lin and went out as well.

"Where are we going?"

"To watch a show."

Yun Zhao took Qi Lin's hand, spread his wings, and flew into the sky.

Compared with Super Soldier Company, which had to travel by both plane and car, Yun Zhao and Qi Lin were far faster.

They arrived at Liang Mountain early and could still see Monkey sitting atop the tower on the distant summit.

"Is that Sun Wukong?"

With her long-range vision, Qi Lin could see much more clearly than Yun Zhao.

"Yes. Let's go over and talk to him."

"Hm?"

As Yun Zhao and Qi Lin approached, Sun Wukong, who had been lying on the tower with his eyes closed in a nap, suddenly opened his eyes and sat up.

When he saw Yun Zhao and Qi Lin, he slightly furrowed his brows.

"Angels? What are you doing here?"

Sun Wukong had seen angels before. Back when the crocodile god Suo Dun was wreaking havoc, Angel Azhui had descended to Earth. Although Sun Wukong had not shown himself at the time, he had witnessed that battle with his own eyes.

Afterward, Azhui came to observe Earth once every hundred years. Since this angel merely observed and did nothing to Earth, Sun Wukong had never interfered.

"We just came to see you, Brother Monkey. We may have angel genes, but we're also Earthlings."

"Earthlings?"

Sun Wukong furrowed his brows again and carefully examined the two of them.

"Oh, I know you two."

After recognizing them, Sun Wukong's attitude softened somewhat.

He had seen Yun Zhao's information at Du Kao's place. Although Yun Zhao was an alien, he had been on Earth for several months without doing anything out of line. He had even helped Hua Xia twice.

The first time had been on Airport Road in Fei Liu District, Juxia City. The second was yesterday at Huang Village.

Although Sun Wukong had dealt with Du Kao outside Huang Village yesterday, in his eyes, Du Kao had purely brought it upon himself.

He had later watched the surveillance footage from Huang Village. Yun Zhao had not gone there to cause destruction. On the contrary, he had driven away Demon Queen Morgana and saved the villagers of Huang Village from total disaster.

As for Qi Lin's records, they were all quite positive, and her work evaluations were excellent.

"Why have you come here?"

"I heard Brother Monkey was going to train Super Soldier Company, so I brought Qi Lin over to take a look."

Sun Wukong nodded and said nothing more.

"God, is that really Sun Wukong?"

Ever since they had approached, Qi Lin had been studying Sun Wukong. She was still extremely surprised to meet this figure from mythology.

"Of course he's Sun Wukong. He's existed for one or two thousand years and has silently protected Hua Xia all this time. You could say he's Hua Xia's guardian deity."

Basically every Hua Xia citizen knew about Sun Wukong, and they all had an indescribable feeling toward him.

Even though he knew the one before him was not the real Sun Wukong, merely looking like him earned him quite a few goodwill points.

"Is he also part of Super Soldier Company?"

"More or less. He's quite familiar with Du Kao. The two of them have known each other for over a thousand years, I think."

Hearing this, Qi Lin nodded. Her curiosity toward Sun Wukong faded, replaced by indifference.

Being close to Du Kao showed that this Sun Wukong was no good either.

What kind of person was Du Kao? Qi Lin had learned quite a lot recently.

"They're here."

Yun Zhao suddenly spoke, and Brother Monkey and Qi Lin both turned their gazes toward the foot of the mountain.

"This is Super Soldier Company?" Qi Lin frowned.

Why did Super Soldier Company look like some slapdash outfit? They even walked crookedly, without the slightest air of soldiers.

Seeing this familiar scene, Yun Zhao felt somewhat helpless too.

Alas, speaking of Super Soldier Company, they really are rather pitiful.

Qiang Wei, who was cautiously climbing the mountain step by step while keeping watch over her surroundings, heard this sudden voice in her mind and slightly furrowed her brows.

How were they pitiful?

Look at them. Du Kao had been watching them from the moment they were born, then left them to grow without care. Once they were needed, he recruited them into Super Soldier Company.

Did you think that was the end of it? From the moment they entered Super Soldier Company, their futures had already been planned out.

Even the fundamental codes of their Super Genes were in other people's hands. If they disobeyed, they would simply be controlled by force.

Deno had a precedent for this. The previous Galaxy Strength, who was still called God River Strength at the time, had his self-awareness directly erased. An arranged consciousness was then implanted into him, turning him completely into a weapon of war. It was truly pitiful and lamentable.

There had actually been such a thing?

Qiang Wei was utterly shocked inside.

"Heh!"

At Super God Academy, Leina, who was sitting opposite Yan, suddenly let out a cold laugh.

According to Yun Zhao, how could she not be pitiful and lamentable as well? The fundamental code of her Super Gene was also in other people's hands.

She had not forgotten what Yun Zhao had said earlier about what would happen to her in the future. The reason Morgana could control her was that Pan Zhen had given her Super Gene's fundamental code to Death God Karl, after which it had ended up in Morgana's hands.

Qi Lin, who had heard all this from nearby, looked rather unpleasant. When she looked at the members of Super Soldier Company again, her eyes also held a trace of pity.

So everything about them had been planned long ago.

And that's not all. According to the original future, the members of Super Soldier Company seemed to be divided up in the end.

Galaxy Strength leaned toward the angels, while Space-Time Qiang Wei was taken away by the demons. Cheng Yaowen disappeared after Du Kao's death. Some people said Du Kao had faked his death and had actually taken Cheng Yaowen to establish New Deno, leaving the Super Genes belonging to Deno on Earth to develop on their own.

If that guess was correct, Du Kao would most likely come to reap the rewards in the end. After all, he possessed the fundamental codes of many Super Genes. Controlling these Super Soldiers would be effortless.

It's downright terrifying when you think it through.

It was not only Yun Zhao who felt horrified. Qiang Wei and Qi Lin also felt chills run through them.

They had never expected there to be so many possibilities. Although Yun Zhao had not said any of them were true, when they followed the logic, there really was some reason to it.

Du Kao was known as a warmonger. I don't believe he could be taken out so easily by a single bullet.

If he could be assassinated that simply, he would have been dead long ago when Deno fell.

After all, he was an old monster who had lived for over ten thousand years. His exit was far too careless.

The women nodded again. It really had been somewhat careless.

Of course, these are only some of my guesses, along with analyses from netizens in my previous life. As for what actually happened, we'll have to observe carefully.

Looking at these foolish, simple-minded members of Super Soldier Company below, I suddenly feel like helping them out.

Forget it. We'll take things one step at a time. If I get the chance in the future, I'll lend them a hand. That way, with these powerful people guarding Earth, it'll at least be somewhat safer.

Earth mustn't be destroyed. It's the only thing from my previous life I still have left to yearn for.

Don't rush to curse me yet. Keeping a little hope is true, and there will be some arrangements later. After all, the original protagonists still had quite a bit of use.
