Looking at the Planet shimmering with golden light before him, Su Zhan felt a surge of relief; they had finally arrived.

He was about to go in when he discovered that the place was even more heavily guarded than the Devil Race.

To be precise, unlike the Devil Race, which is Devil Race -key and secretive, every Alien Race that enters the Devil Race is closely watched by Jing.

It's different here; here you simply can't get in.

The glittering Planet makes no attempt to conceal its splendor; it is dazzling and arrogant.

Su Zhan tried several times, but gave up and decided to observe the surrounding Planet for a while.

They chose the nearest Planet and landed.

After a long day of running around, I was exhausted and starving, so I immediately found a local restaurant and decided to have a big meal there.

The moment Su Zhan put the food in his mouth, he almost spat it out. How could it taste so awful!

He looked at the food in his hand, trying to figure out what it was, but his analysis failed; the dark, murky mess was hardly appealing.

The people sitting next to him were all eating heartily, Su Zhan couldn't help but ask one of them.

What are you eating? Is it really delicious?

The man said, "It doesn't taste good."

Su Zhan: "If it doesn't taste good, how can you eat it so deliciously?"

The man said, "We're native locals, we've been eating this since we were little, we're used to it."

"What else can we do if we don't eat? All the good food has already been offered to the Drum Tribe and the higher-ups. We're lucky to have anything to eat at all."

Su Zhan frowned. "What do you mean? Has this Drum Tribe really bullied you to this extent? Don't you want to fight back?"

The man replied, "It can't be entirely blamed on the Drum Tribe. It wasn't the Drum Tribe who demanded it; it was our Silver Star's higher-ups who took the initiative to curry favor with the Drum Tribe in order to obtain better Cultivation Resources."

"It can only be said that the Drum Tribe knew about it, but didn't stop it."

After talking with him for a while, Su Zhan found the man to be damnably calm and rational.

This is somewhat unusual. Normal people, if their interests are infringed upon by others, will hate everyone involved in the matter without hesitation.

The person in front of me was frighteningly calm. This kind of person is the most dangerous. They usually keep a low profile, but once they become rich, it can be a fatal blow.

Su Zhan asked, "Who are you? Since you know all this, don't you want to change anything?"

The man sneered, "Change? How can we change things? I don't have the ability right now. The people here have already gotten used to this kind of life, and the voices demanding change are growing weaker and weaker."

Su Zhan: "I don't believe it. From what you just said, I can sense your attitude and determination; you want to change!"

The man raised an eyebrow and said, "Why do you care so much about whether you, an outsider, have been oppressed by them?"

Do you know how powerful the Drum Tribe is?

Su Zhan smiled and said, "I know they are powerful, and I know you want to change things, but you don't have the ability."

"I can help you. They are my enemies too, and I need to get back what I want from them, so we can cooperate."

The man stopped eating, his gaze sharp:

Why should I trust you? What abilities do you have to help us?

Su Zhan didn't speak, but simply smiled and exuded his aura of power. Instantly, everyone in the restaurant was shaken and unable to move, as if Mount Tai was pressing down on them.

This is only a small part of the force Su Zhan uses as a deterrent. If Su Zhan wanted to, he could crush everyone in this restaurant into dust in an instant.

The man finally believed in Su Zhan's abilities and said, "Alright, having someone like you is an opportunity for us too."

He then tried to pull Su Zhan towards the alley outside. After several twists and turns, they arrived at a secluded shop. After going inside and exchanging a secret signal with the person, Su Zhan was led into a dark basement.

This should be their own base, a very safe place. The man also removed his disguise and introduced himself to Su Zhan.

"Hello, my code name is Green Snake. This person is our liaison officer; you can call him White Moon."

He then turned to White Moon and said, "This is someone I brought into the Alliance today." White Moon glanced at him, then pulled Green Snake She's hand and led her to a corner.

He said in a very low voice, "How can you just bring anyone in? How do you know if he's reliable? What if he exposes the organization? Wouldn't that be a serious crime?"

Green Snake shook her head and said to him, "I naturally wouldn't just bring anyone in, but he is indeed very powerful, and we have a common enemy."

"Perhaps he is the key to our rebellion against the Drum Tribe. I don't want to give up any opportunity. Our hopes were already slim, weren't they?"

White Moon sighed. Yes, how could their situation possibly get any worse?

Their organization against the Drum Tribe appeared a long time ago, but it has never succeeded. Over the years, the organization has become weaker and weaker, and fewer and fewer people have joined. If this continues, they may disappear or be captured and executed at any time.

Su Zhan overheard their conversation clearly and learned about the current situation of their organization from these few simple words.

They suspected Su Zhan was right; Su Zhan's purpose in this group was still to infiltrate the Drum Tribe and obtain the Artifact fragments he wanted.

He sympathized with these people's plight, but he didn't feel compelled to save them.

If he can, he will try his best to help them achieve liberation; but if he cannot, he will naturally prioritize his own goals.

Since it was the first time they had met, no one would truly trust anyone else. White Moon was persuaded by Green Snake and accepted Su Zhan.

He said to him, "Now that you're here, you're our partner. We'll help each other and work together to defeat the Drum Tribe."

"You need to help us with a small task today."

Su Zhan knew this was a test. Although they were few in number, they wouldn't send a newcomer to carry out a mission for them.

Su Zhan had no objections, simply smiling and nodding, saying, "Okay, what's the task?"

White Moon: "Today, our undercover agents will return from the city gates on the eastern street."

"But that place is heavily guarded, and there's a high possibility of something going wrong. Since you're so capable, you'll be responsible for covering our returning member nearby."

He might be able to bring important intelligence. Su Zhan said he had no objection.

They were very efficient. Su Zhan was taken to the location where the mission was to be carried out, and he was able to go into action alone, unburdened.

To be honest, he didn't believe the undercover agent would return from here. He knew how important a good undercover agent was to an organization.

Such an important person would naturally not be easily known to outsiders. Moreover, this was a mission to test his loyalty. If he chose to betray, it would be a devastating blow to this already struggling organization.
