Angel Zhixin returned from the Frazer Galaxy and learned that Queen Hexi wanted her to rendezvous with Angel Yan and approach Su Luo, a mysterious visitor from another universe.

• Akashi shared her fear that Carl might cause a catastrophe like the one that destroyed World Alpha, and Su Luo connected her suspicions to factions in the Known Universe.
