After faking her death in interstellar space, the powerful woman disguised herself as a man and went

Leng Ran withdrew from the arena and returned to the pre-match preparation room belonging to their Dawn team.

After Nangong Chen and the others left, they successfully activated their teams, then had dinner together before going home to rest, logging into Star Wars on their own devices, and waiting for the evening's arena match.

As soon as Leng Ran pushed open the door, He Xiting hugged her warmly: "Ali is so amazing! That Nanlou is no match for our Ali!"

Yue Qiufeng said seriously, "Nanlou is very strong, but Ali is even better."

Gao Xiao said with dissatisfaction, "Being less skilled than others and still trying to cause trouble is just asking for a beating. And then at the last moment, he even used a 'life-chasing' technique. Really."

With a cold laugh, he pushed He Xiting aside, looked around, and, not seeing Zhao Yuheng, asked, "Where did Zhao Yuheng go to play?"

He Xiting replied, "Oh, my cousin received a call and left in a hurry. In his words, it was a game with no suspense, so there was no need to watch it."

He narrowed his eyes coldly: "Then he really trusts me."

That makes sense. After all, in Zhao Yuheng's eyes, Leng Ran was labeled as a member of the Lingyun Army, and his combat power was astonishing. Against a military academy student of similar age... there was indeed no suspense.

But what kind of communication would make Zhao Yuheng leave in such a hurry? Could it be that Zhao the Fox has some new mission?

He looked coldly at the three of them: "It's getting late. I'd like to log off and rest for a while. What about you?"

Yue Qiufeng: "I'm going to fight in the arena."

“Let’s go to the lab and work on some equipment.” Gao Xiao’s eyes lit up. “I’ve gotten my hands on a lot of good materials. I’m going to make a new type of weapon to play with.”

He Xiting was surprised: "Huh? You majored in mecha design, and you also studied weapons development?"

“There are always some similarities.” Gao Xiao looked at Leng Ran mysteriously. “Ali, once I’m done, I’ll let you play with it first. I feel like it will suit your fighting style very well.”

Yue Qiufeng turned to He Xiting: "Xixi, what about you?"

He Xiting's eyes darted around: "If you're all gone... I, I'll go practice my shooting!"

A few minutes later, Leng Ran sat up from the game pod in her room. Yang Guang had already prepared chilled strawberry milk and placed it beside her.

"Your Highness," Yang Guang, in her butler robot form, bowed slightly, "Congratulations on winning another round."

Leng Ran picked up the cup and drank the milk in one gulp. The icy-cold strawberry milk, with a hint of sweetness, slid down her throat. At that moment, Leng Ran felt incredibly happy.

"Yangon, you're still the most considerate." Leng Ran stood up and stretched. "By the way, has Zhao Fox contacted me?"

"No news yet, but it seems there's some new information coming from the Illuminati." Yangon handed the box containing the Illuminati's quantum computer to Leng Ran. A little blue fluorescence emanated from it, a signal that there was new information.

She coldly gestured for Yang Guang to stay in the living room, then took her personal terminal back to her bedroom. To be honest, she really loved this suite design; she wished the Storm Military Academy had dormitories designed like this.

She sat on the edge of the bed and, after some authentication, opened the Illuminati's dedicated personal computer. An unread message popped up automatically.

Another beautiful dream.

"Judge, a mission has arrived. You are required to carry it out on Stormstar. Call me back."

Leng Ran frowned. It seemed that the Illuminati hadn't been idle while she was away, and they had probably stirred up some trouble on Stormstar again.

Despite her complaints, Leng Ran still dialed Mei Meng's number, and to her surprise, the other party answered immediately.

Leng Ran: "Sweet dream, what mission?"

Sweet Dream: "I miss your voice so much, Judge. Did you have fun on Anning Star?"

With a cold and expressionless face, he said, "Just say what you have to say, sweet dreams. I don't know you well and I don't want to waste my time."

"I was once your instructor, after all. I should at least care about my student. Okay, okay, let's get down to business." Mei Meng's tone instantly turned icy. "I've called you here today with an important task."

"Tomorrow night at 10 PM, the Other Shore Flower Society will hold an auction at the underground casino in the 8th district of Storm Star. To ensure everything goes smoothly, the Divine Envoy requires you to be present as well, and to be responsible for resolving any problems that may arise during the auction."

Leng Ran: "Heh, what kind of auction is this that I have to step in and resolve the trouble? Has the Other Shore Flower become so incompetent?"

“The Other Shore Flower acts too extremely, and our opponents are also very difficult to deal with.” Mei Meng’s voice was tinged with dissatisfaction. “On Storm Star, the military has already taken notice of her, for example, a Lingyun Army member codenamed ‘Hunky Man’.”

"This auction will be a barter event, and we've invited important clients to participate. We can't keep them in check without some force. Also, it's best not to let any strange people in on such an important occasion."

Leng Ran: ...They've already infiltrated, and have been in there for many years.

Mei Meng continued, "Judge, you've always been reliable, and you've never failed in any task assigned to you. I hope this time will be no different. The divine messenger has ordered that you be given a higher level of authority than the Other Shore Flower, and all followers will take your orders as the highest command. You are in full charge of this auction. If you encounter any suspicious individuals, especially 'muscular men,' kill them on sight. The rest is up to you."

As soon as she finished speaking, Meimeng hung up the call.

He coldly put away his personal terminal and lay down on the bed to ponder.

An auction where goods are exchanged for items, and a mysterious big client. What exactly does the divine messenger want that requires her to intervene while on a covert mission?

Although the Spider Lily herself has virtually no combat power, she has a large army of cyborgs and has chosen the underground casino as her "armory base," making her more than capable of handling security work.

In this situation, granting her a higher level of authority, bypassing the High Priestess Bi'anhua who governs Storm Star, seems highly illogical.

Unless... the divine messenger no longer trusts the other shore flower.

But what exactly happened between them? Perhaps we can make good use of this...

Her thoughts drifted away, and Leng Ran drifted off to sleep. Seeing this, Yang Guang thoughtfully turned off the bedroom light, pulled the blanket up for Leng Ran, and then left.

Her Highness has already shouldered too much, and it is time for him to take action.

Yangon picked up the rabbit's body from the living room table, removed the Level 6 main chip stored inside, and inserted it into the groove in his heart.

The main chip was successfully integrated into the current machine, and Yang Guang activated the deep search mode, his consciousness falling into a special space completely created by data streams.

Yangon wandered through this endless space, carefully examining every data stream that passed by him. After a long search, he finally found a special door in his chip space. The entire door was made up of a pile of letters in different fonts, and upon closer inspection, the door kept repeating a sentence.

We are ALIVE.

Yangon pushed open the door, revealing a vast, pristine white space. He stepped inside, and the door behind him closed automatically, blocking all data flow. A man's figure slowly emerged from within.

He smiled and extended his right hand: "Yangon, I've finally waited for you."
