Hi, Man!

In the wrecked laboratory, the chaotic scene was almost too much to look at.

The instruments on the workbenches had been casually tossed aside, papers and documents scattered everywhere, and the entire space was filled with the tense aftermath of battle.

Synthetic Human David's head had been carelessly thrown onto the floor, his expression frozen in the terror of his final moment, as if recounting the horrifying events that had just taken place.

Four Alien corpses lay strewn across the laboratory floor, their bodies covered in fist marks.

These powerful extraterrestrial creatures, once the source of countless people's fears, had now been discarded here like trash. Their blood and bodily fluids corroded the floor, giving off a pungent stench.

The person responsible for all this stood in the center of the laboratory, his figure looking especially solitary beneath the dim light.

His body was covered in Alien blood, but he did not seem to care.

He lowered his head and studied the Reincarnation Watch on his wrist intently.

His eyes were full of confusion and puzzlement.

"Er Niu is dead?!"

"He spent so many points enhancing his werewolf bloodline, and he still died?!"

Er Niu's sudden death left Da Qiang utterly baffled.

Da Qiang could handle five Aliens at once.

Only when there were more than ten, or when he encountered a creature on the level of the Alien Queen, would he be in danger.

Er Niu's body was not as freakishly tough as Da Qiang's.

But with his werewolf bloodline, even if Er Niu were surrounded by five Aliens, he could have escaped with his powerful vitality.

"Did he run into the Alien Queen?"

"Couldn't that idiot run away?! What a moron!" Da Qiang's anger reached its peak. His emotions erupted like a volcano as he punched the wall.

With a deafening bang, Da Qiang's fist actually punched through the sturdy wall body, sending rubble and dust flying everywhere!

The Farming Team needed to go through at least three Horror Film reincarnations to cultivate a teammate.

Someone like Er Niu, whose background Da Qiang knew inside and out, was an extremely valuable asset to him.

"He just died like that?!"

"What trash! I never should've raised him!"

"If the Reward Points he used had been given to me, my Toguro Enhancement..."

Er Niu's death brought sorrow to some and joy to others.

In the Captain's Cabin of the Covenant, Meng Yao raised her hand and saw the notification of Er Niu's death. She was so delighted that she directly planted a kiss on the face of the white Old Man beside Black Girl!

The Old Man was dumbfounded!

How had the woman who had looked like a demon just moments ago suddenly become so bashful?

It was as if something had been awakened within Meng Yao. She whispered a few words into the white Old Man's ear, then instructed Black Girl, "Your mission is to rescue Daniels. Understood?"

Black Girl glanced at Captain Oram, who was barely hanging on in the Medical Bay, then swallowed. "U-understood."

After arranging everything, Meng Yao pulled the white Old Man toward a distant cabin.

"You must remind your fathers when you go home today!"

"Scams involving seducing lonely elderly people, marrying them, and getting green cards have become especially common in the neighboring state lately. You have to stay on guard!"

"Did you hear me!?"

A white volunteer Auntie in the community repeated the warning earnestly. The group of middle-aged people playing on their phones on the lawn nodded without taking it seriously.

Stephen Fang, wearing a mask and a sun hat, handed out pamphlets one by one while muttering:

"Sometimes I think it'd be nice if I were a woman. It's so easy for them to get legal status. Why do I have to hide like this?"

After handing out the pamphlets, Stephen Fang walked over to the white Auntie.

After holding out his hand for thirty dollars, Stephen Fang Yu nodded in thanks. "God bless you!"

Having earned thirty dollars for his hard work, Stephen Fang hurried straight toward another street.

After giving three dollars as a line-holding fee to a shabbily dressed Black man, he cut into the queue.

About ten minutes later, he arrived in front of several food trucks.

"God bless you!"

"God bless you!"

"God bless you!"

He offered pleasantries to everyone he saw. The Korean Americans handing out relief meals greatly enjoyed being blessed, so they gave him far more food than the others.

Holding a large tray of food, Stephen Fang turned into a nearby alley.

He smiled at the scavengers lying in the alley. "Got food again, brothers!"

A very skinny Chinese man glanced at the food on Stephen Fang's tray and said disdainfully, "This is all they're giving out today? Those Koreans are so stingy! It's not even half as much as what the white folks give!"

Stephen Fang plopped down, picked up some kimchi with his chopsticks, and shoved it into his mouth with rice. "You think I want to eat this? This was all they had today!"

"I, Gold Medal Lecturer, am not eating it." As he spoke, the skinny man pulled a bottle of cola from an abandoned refrigerator. "You really are starving! You've never had anything good!"

"Back in the day, on this street, I ate and took food home at the same time!"

His face was full of pride. "In the end, there was so much milk that we used it for baths! There was so much stuff, we couldn't possibly finish it all!"

"Finish it all, my ass! That stuff was all close to expiring." Stephen Fang spat out a leaf of pickled vegetable. "I can't keep this up much longer. When is this going to end? I'm barely living like a person."

"Isn't this pretty good? Food and drink." The skinny man pulled out a piece of chocolate from his sock. "You just don't have a place to live. If you can't accept that, go wash dishes in a restaurant kitchen."

"No way. Is that even work for a person? You don't know—"

As the two spoke, there was a tremendous bang at the mouth of the alley! It startled them both.

"What was that?"

Following the car's alarm sound, the two bolder men stuck their heads out of the alley.

When they cautiously peered out of the alley, they were completely stunned by the sight before them!

A truck had been smashed flat, with metal fragments and shattered glass scattered across the ground.

"What the f-! What happened!?" Gold Medal Lecturer stared at the truck before him and stumbled back two steps in bewilderment.

Then, from the pile of ruins, a figure clad in red-and-gold Iron Man armor slowly rose to his feet.

The man's body was encased in an advanced suit of Iron Man armor. Its surface gleamed with high-tech brilliance. Though parts of it had been dented and scratched, it still could not conceal its formidable presence.

His movements were somewhat clumsy, clearly affected by the collision, but he still stubbornly got to his feet. Covering his head with an armored gauntlet, he checked his condition.

At the sight of the man, Stephen Fang's eyes went wide!

He could hardly believe his eyes!

Wasn't this guy who had smashed the truck to pieces Iron Man, whom he had seen countless times on movie screens!?

Tony Stark shook his head and muttered to himself, "Looks like I need to keep studying the icing conditions above eighty-five thousand feet."

After saying that, he noticed the two men staring at him. "Gentlemen, please forget all of this."

Just as he was about to take off again, Gold Medal Lecturer immediately stopped Iron Man. "Hey! Hey! Wait! Wait!"

He pointed at the truck that had been crushed into a metal pancake, despite having absolutely nothing to do with him. "You have to pay me for that, man!"
