Chapter 139 Hong's Request, Luo's Excitement!
"Huh? What's going on?"
Inside the Meteorite Starship, Luo Feng and Thor waited for a long time, but there was no movement at all.
"Could it be?"
Luo Feng and Thor were somewhat excited, vaguely guessing what was going on.
Babata immediately jumped out, extremely excited, and said, "Luo Feng, there's a powerful expert! A powerful expert has used Time Stop—"
The Earth is saved! You are saved—”
As he was speaking, Babata suddenly froze, his eyes widening in disbelief.
"Babata, don't jump to conclusions, what happened?"
Luo Feng's mood had just risen from its lowest point to its peak, but when he suddenly saw Babata's expression, his heart was filled with unease again.
"call!"
Luo Feng cut off all negative emotions in his heart, regained his composure, and waited for Babata's reply.
Soon, without saying a word, Babata projected a screen.
Luo Feng and Thor's attention was immediately drawn to it.
The projection screen displayed a massive interstellar fleet, with each ship in the fleet equipped with a planet-destroying cannon.
Not long after, the planet-destroying cannon was successfully condensed and ready to be launched, but then it suddenly stopped.
Yes, on the projection screen, just as the image was fully formed and ready to launch, it suddenly froze, as if a pause button had been pressed.
Luo Feng and Thor quickly remembered the words "time stop" that Babata had just mentioned.
"Is this what time stop is?"
Luo Feng's eyes widened in astonishment at the sheer power of this power!
The entire interstellar fleet, and even the star-destroying cannons they were about to fire, were brought to a standstill.
"My goodness! Is this really something a human can do?" Thor rubbed his bald head and let out a long sigh of relief.
Soon, the screen started moving again.
A massive, fiery red hand, capable of blotting out the sky, appeared out of thin air above the fleet. Even just looking at it through the screen, one could feel a strong sense of suffocation!
A fiery red giant hand slammed down towards the interstellar fleet, tearing space apart wherever it passed—
Without a sound, the entire interstellar fleet instantly turned to ash and vanished into the cosmos, as if it had never existed.
"call!"
Zhou Ze, who had also watched the video, breathed a sigh of relief.
"I knew it! With Luo Feng, our godfather, around, how could anything happen to Earth? You gave me a false alarm!" Zhou Ze felt cold sweat breaking out on his back.
Even though he knew he should be fine, he still found it hard to remain calm when it actually happened.
The entire Earth, all of humanity, and all of Earth's civilization are about to be destroyed in less than a minute. Who the hell can withstand that?
Unless they are evil individuals who intend to destroy the world, no one can remain calm in the face of such a situation.
After calming down, Zhou Ze couldn't help but think, "This mysterious expert, capable of stopping time, must be at least a King-level expert, or even possibly a Time Venerable!"
"That's really scary!"
"With a single strike, this massive interstellar fleet was reduced to ashes!"
"This mysterious powerful being must have been on Earth a long time ago, otherwise even the Lord of the Universe, or even the strongest being in the universe, wouldn't be able to arrive on Earth within 60 seconds of receiving a rescue request—"
"But no matter what, Earth is safe now, and I don't need to worry about Earth's safety anymore. All I need to do is work hard to improve myself."
"It's so hard to bear having to rely on others when something like this happens—"
Jiuxing Bay.
Zhou Ze, Luo Feng, Hong, and Lei Shen all gathered on the rooftop of Luo Feng's house.
"That was close!" Thor took a deep breath. Normally he would have been farming loot by now, but even though the danger had passed, he was still incredibly brave.
But I still can't muster any energy:
"Fortunately, Virtual Universe Company sent people over in time, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable—"
Hong, still shaken, said, "I've thought about how dangerous the universe is, and I've also imagined all of humanity on Earth being enslaved."
But I never imagined that just now the entire Earth was facing an unprecedented crisis, one that could destroy it!
Luo Feng also clutched his head in his hands: "I can't even describe the despair I felt just now! Even when facing the Golden Horned Beast, or even the Nuolanshan family, we could still see hope!"
"We can still fight for a chance to survive through our own efforts! But that interstellar fleet, every warship is at least E9 level, and the leader is even F level. They appeared out of nowhere, without any warning, and immediately started firing their planet-destroying cannons!"
"Phew—Even now, without consciously eliminating distracting thoughts, negative emotions still linger in my mind!"
"The crises we've experienced before are nothing compared to this!"
Luo Feng said a lot, then fell silent.
The scene was deathly silent.
At that moment, two figures appeared at the main gate; they were Tu Man and Clark.
The two lightly touched the ground and floated into the air before gently landing on the rooftop.
"Are you all alright?" Tuman took a deep breath and said, "Babata just told me that Earth is fine now."
"I knew it all along. Why didn't Virtual Universe Company send anyone to protect you? You should have investigated the specific situation on Earth from the very beginning when you showed your potential, and then sent powerful experts directly to your location."
Clark, who was always serious, nodded earnestly and said:
"Yes, during the preliminary rounds within the universe, Virtual Universe Company would definitely have investigated any outstanding geniuses. They should have sent people there to protect them long ago—"
At this point, Clark asked curiously, "Logically speaking, this fleet should have been destroyed before it even got close, and shouldn't have had a chance to appear in front of Earth at all—."
"I still don't understand why they waited until the very last moment to make their move!"
Thor forced a smile: "I guess this powerful individual is a bit mischievous—"
Thor's words immediately caused everyone to burst into laughter.
"Zhou Ze, Luo Feng has good news!" Babata jumped up excitedly, "I just received a compensation email! Virtual Universe Company is compensating each of you with 10 points for this incident!"
"Thor, you should have one too!" Babata said, looking at Thor.
Lord Mist jumped out and said, "I received it too."
It's rare that two intelligent beings met without arguing; that's truly remarkable.
The compensation of 10 points is not a small amount for the core members before Immortality. Passing through the first level of the Sky Bridge only earns 10 points, and even with a tenfold bonus for newcomers, it only amounts to 1000 points.
Even if each subsequent level increases by 2, you still need to pass the 10th level to exceed 10 points.
But at this moment, for Zhou Ze and the others, those 10 points were simply too terrifying to bear; they'd rather not have them.
"Thank you, Tuman, Clark—" Luo Feng said earnestly.
Clark rolled his eyes and said, "Are you treating us like outsiders? What's there to thank us for? If we were in this situation, would you refuse to help us?"
Tu Man nodded: "Of course, there's no need to say more about such things between us brothers."
"Mm." Luo Feng nodded with a smile. "Anyway, I still want to thank you all. I originally wanted to treat you to a meal, but I'm really not in the mood, so I can only hug you."
Thor smiled slightly and said, "Right now, I just want to focus on my cultivation. I don't want to experience this feeling of powerlessness and despair a second time; my heart can't take it!"
"I understand why Teacher Zhou has become more and more low-key!" Thor said to Zhou Ze, who had been silent all along.
Zhou Ze glanced at Thor and said, "Don't follow my example. If you don't show your potential, you won't get noticed by the Virtual Universe Company, and no super being will take you on as apprentices!"
"To be honest, this was a close call! A false alarm! That mysterious expert must have arrived on Earth long beforehand."
"Don't let this hold you back in the future. The better you perform, the more our company will value you, and the more we will value the planet!"
"From now on, your biggest concern will not be the Earth, but your own safety and survival."
The more outstanding you become, the more valued the company will be, and the safer the planet will be.
"Um."
Luo Feng and the others responded in unison.
Time flies.
In the blink of an eye, Luo Feng, Thor, Tu Man, Clark, and almost all the core members who joined Virtual Universe Company through the Genius Battle boarded their respective spaceships and flew towards Virtual Universe Company's global headquarters.
For the next three years, these geniuses, including Zhou Ze, will need to spend those two or three years on the spaceship.
In the manor at No. 1137, Taichu District, Yuxiang Mountain, Zhou Ze sat in his study, reading the book he had purchased, "Cosmic Evolution." It was a golden book, approximately 50 centimeters long, 40 centimeters wide, and 40 centimeters high. Though called a book,
In fact, even the paper is made of gold-colored metallic pages.
"Finally finished the second book!"
Zhou Ze breathed a sigh of relief. This secret technique was the one he had chosen from the "Treasure Vault" secret technique category. Knowing the plot well, he naturally began choosing a secret technique even before arriving in Chaos City.
Without much hesitation, he directly chose the most expensive secret technique, "Cosmic Evolution," which cost 1000 billion in total, and it happened to correspond to the "Cosmic Chaos Monument" that he would choose in the future.
As a secret technique comparable to the "Time and Space Essays" that Luo Feng will purchase in the future, "The Evolution of the Universe" is also divided into nine volumes!
Book 1: 1000 points!
1 points for the first two books!
10 points for the first three books!
A total of 100 billion points!
Zhou Ze spent 10 points to buy the first three books!
I just managed to spend all the compensation points.
"continue--"
Zhou Ze put the second volume of "Cosmic Evolution" aside and took out the third volume, intending to read it.
"Zhou Ze, Hong needs to see you!" Babata appeared on Zhou Ze's shoulder and alerted him.
"Oh?" Zhou Ze asked, "Why did Hong suddenly contact me?"
Since the Earth's destruction crisis passed, the three Earth brothers have been completely immersed in cultivation, and it can be said that they have a lot of energy to spare.
"I don't know." Babata shook his head.
Zhou Ze chuckled inwardly: "Could it be that he's already in a relationship? That shouldn't be the case. If that were the case, he'd be going to find Luo Feng and the others. I'm just a member of the Primordial Secret Realm—."
"Okay, email Hong and tell him to wait for me at Nine Star Bay." Zhou Ze closed Volume Two of "Cosmic Evolution." He then said directly, "Babata, teleport me to the gate of Luo Feng's villa in Nine Star Bay."
"OK."
In a flash, my eyes turned.
Zhou Ze then disappeared from the study.
The rooftop of Hong Villa in Jiuxing Bay has long been equipped with soundproofing.
"puff!"
Zhou Ze spat out his tea, his eyes widening as he exclaimed, "Is your teacher kidding me? Does he really think I'm omnipotent, asking me to guide him on how to break through to immortality?"
Hong was slightly embarrassed, then sighed, "I couldn't very well refuse. Coming here to go through the motions, at least I've done my part..."
"My teacher and I have similar personalities. We don't ask for favors unless absolutely necessary. I've always seen how good he's been to me over the years."
"He doesn't know about your situation, Teacher Zhou, but I do. If you could really help him, I would have told you directly instead of waiting for you to come to me for help—"
Zhou Ze pondered for a moment, then smiled faintly and said, "Give it a try—"
"Huh?" Hong was slightly surprised.
"Give it a try, otherwise how will your teacher give up?" Zhou Ze smiled.
"Okay, thank you, Teacher Zhou," Hong said after thinking for a moment.
Zhou Ze waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, just let him come to my private island himself."
Inside a luxurious villa on Heilongshan Island.
After Hong contacted his teacher, an elderly man with gray hair appeared at the villa's gate. This man was none other than Hong's teacher, "Luo".
After Hong contacted him via email through the virtual universe and explained the situation, Luo immediately put down everything he was doing and entered the virtual universe.
This shows how much he values this opportunity.
"Teacher," Hong bowed respectfully.
"Hong, has the 'Holy Master' agreed to guide me?" Luo took a deep breath and asked excitedly.
"Yes, teacher, the 'Holy Master' has agreed, but don't have too high expectations." Hong's expression was calm, but inwardly he felt somewhat helpless. This address of "old man"—
He didn't know what Teacher Zhou was thinking. He had only intended to go through the motions, but he didn't expect Teacher Zhou to actually agree.
It's better to give up in the first place than to have hope only to have it dashed.
Besides, Professor Zhou didn't major in the laws of light.
"Quickly, take me to see the 'Holy Master'," Luo said quickly.
This was the first time Hong had seen his teacher with such an eager expression. Of course, given Hong's understanding of human nature, he could understand his teacher's feelings.
"Teacher, the 'Holy Master' wants you to go there yourself. The address is Qianwu Continent—" Hong said, revealing the address of Zhou Ze's private island.
"Hong, thank you very much," Luo said sincerely.
The more one learns about the "Saint Master," the more one understands how precious a single opportunity for guidance from the "Saint Master" is, especially after the Peak Genius Battle, where the "Saint Master's" disciples, as well as those he had guided, such as Lightning, swept the top four spots.
It can be said that a single instance of guidance from the "Holy Master" is no longer just precious; it is practically priceless.
Even though the "Saint Master" would occasionally visit the Peak Space to guide a few people, the odds were so low that he dared not even dream of it.
"Teacher, that's a bit of an overstatement, but please don't have too high expectations," Hong said with a slight smile. "Even a saintly teacher isn't omnipotent."
"Yes, I understand." Luo calmed down and nodded.
