Sealing off the entire galaxy for experimental purposes will preserve its original appearance as much as possible. All matters related to environmental changes will be halted, including the period of change.

After all, the purpose of the reforms was simply to select talent, and the fundamental purpose of selecting talent was to research projects.

Now that traces of time-related projects have appeared on the Arc-35 Galaxy, the so-called "anomaly era" will naturally have to give way to the experimental projects.

"That easy?"

Those inside the spaceship only saw Li Xingkong exchange a few words with the messengers of the Axiom Arc, and the matter seemed to have passed without any of the tension or confrontation they had imagined.

It's like a few acquaintances meeting up, sitting together, chatting, and then the matter is simply forgotten.

"Of course not, this isn't over yet."

Li Xingkong appeared inside the ship, and the others looked at him with delight.

"We've only managed to deal with the people who came to capture you, but the fact that you possess the power of time has already spread throughout the Axiom Arc. Even if I let you go now, I doubt you'll be able to escape."

Hearing Li Xingkong's words, Albert was already prepared. After all, that person could find him even after retracing the timeline, so it was probably impossible to keep the news about him a secret from the Axiom Arc.

"So, it's too early to be happy. I'm also a reserve member of the Axiom Arc, and I just greeted them. Now, your status can be considered to have changed from experimental subject to partner."

Li Xingkong made a hand gesture.

"At least compared to being directly experimented on without any human rights, as a partner, you have the right to say no when participating in experiments."

So, in the end, they still have to be studied...?

Tataru heartbroken.

"That's already very good. At least with Mr. Li's strong protection, it won't become a consumable in the experiments."

Albert patted Tataru's head. At this point, it was a better outcome than being forcibly taken away for research.

"However, when we'll go to the experiment is uncertain, after all, I'm just an unofficial staff member..."

Li Xingkong smiled. He only said he was going to take people to participate in the experiment, but he didn't say when.

You can go anytime, whether it's a day, a year, or a hundred years.

Moreover, for the messengers of the Axiom Arc, such a short time is probably just a brief rest.

"That's true. In that case, we could easily delay for hundreds of years before going."

Tataru.

"That's true, but dragging it out won't do us any good. Mr. Li has his own things to do, and Dawn's work can't do without me. Even if we can hold out for a while, can we really live on Mr. Li's ship forever?"

"Indeed, and with experiments like these, the earlier you get involved, the more say you have. If we keep dragging it out, and the project makes crucial progress, I'll really have little influence then, and it's hard to say whether I can protect you."

"That's true, after all, who knows when those mad scientists will come to a conclusion."

"So... what should we do next?"

Clearly, while this operation saved Albert, it also disrupted the original plan, requiring a complete rethinking.

"How about this: I'll send a clone of myself back to the Kingdom of Fixed Light things, and then after Guapilong and I return, we'll meet up at the project site?"

Li Xingkong thought about it for a moment. Although it was a big deal, he was still a little unwilling to give up his plans, since he had only come this far on his journey.

Let alone Moon-Grasping Ball, they've even set foot on the territory of the Holy Church of Truth.

Helping is fine, but the premise is that it shouldn't affect your own life.

"Indeed, sir. You've helped us so much, you should come and sit with our group so we can show you some hospitality."

After all, the Axiom Arc only recognizes the rings, not people, so as long as the clone goes with the bracelet, there won't be any major problems.

However, just as the group was finalizing their itinerary, Li Xingkong discovered an uninvited guest had entered his Divine Sense range.

The man walked straight toward the spaceship; his target was quite clear.

Li Xingkong Divine Sense the man's intentions and was about to investigate when a ring-shaped wave erupted from the man's body, completely dispelling the Divine Sense surrounding him.

This was the first time Li Xingkong had ever seen someone who could sense the existence of Divine Sense.

"Wait."

Li Xingkong left only a brief message before flashing out and appearing in front of the man's path.

Gathering his Divine Sense in front of him, forming a barrier, Li Xingkong waited in his inevitable path.

A few breaths later, the figure indeed appeared in Li Xingkong's field of vision.

Perhaps because he saw the barrier of Divine Sense, the person changed direction and headed directly towards Li Xingkong's location.

He stopped a few kilometers away from Li Xingkong. Only then did Li Xingkong have a chance to take a good look at the newcomer.

Using "he" to describe her is clearly inappropriate; Li Xingkong was being somewhat arbitrary. This visitor was obviously a woman.

Although she was a mechanical creation, and her geometric aesthetics were exactly the same as Yan Jun's, Li Xingkong could clearly sense her gender at first glance, perhaps because of the information flow she exuded.

This flow of information is proactive, as if she deliberately dispersed it.

"Plum?"

The man glanced at Li Xingkong from afar, and then another swift ripple surged out. However, the barrier of Divine Sense only trembled slightly before neutralizing the ripple.

"Who are you?"

Li Xingkong somewhat curious; he didn't think he had ever seen this person before.

"Heh, you stole my man, and you still don't know who I am? Just a candidate after all."

The newcomer was clearly furious, and had an aggressive demeanor.

"Your people?"

Li Xingkong was somewhat puzzled.

"Heh, so it's the spacetime anomaly on your ship. I discovered it first, so naturally it counts as one of my people."

The person pointed to the ship.

"Huh? If that's the case, then you were the first person I saw, so you're one of mine too?"

Li Xingkong was speechless. How did this guy's brain work? It was so domineering.

"I don't talk to fools. Hand over the person now, and I might let you go."

The newcomer was clearly confident in getting Albert, looking as if victory was assured.

"First of all, Albert is a person with his own will. I cannot make decisions for him regarding what he is willing to do and what he is unwilling to do. Secondly, with your attitude, I really doubt how you became a member of the Axiom Arc."

With this guy's attitude, he couldn't even speak properly, so Li Xingkong naturally wouldn't be in a good mood.
