The game is about becoming a god, starting with the rampage of Hua Ye.

Following Karl, they arrived at a spacious area filled with various sophisticated instruments, none of which Glenn understood or could analyze their purpose.

However, Glenn saw some human genetic maps on the open projection screens, something out of place that made him realize something was amiss.

Following Karl into the core area, the discoveries he made along the way gave him some ideas.

Not long after, he could vaguely hear some murmurs. Looking over, he saw a group of researchers in white robes chattering about something. Among them, the figure in the dark blue cloak caught Glenn's eye.

As if sensing Glenn's gaze, Kieran looked up, and from beneath the ever-impossible cloak, that weathered voice drifted over.

"So it's Lord Shadow King! What a coincidence to run into you here. We are truly honored that you could come. We happen to have a topic to discuss here. Would you like to join us?"

Upon hearing this, Glenn's lips twitched, and he thought to himself:

"Keep pretending. Didn't you ask Karl to send me the invitation? What coincidence are you trying to pull?"

Glenn, who was two-faced, also showed surprise, then happily said:

"Principal Kiran, you really have a short memory! Didn't Scholar Carl send me the invitation letter precisely because it was at your suggestion? How can it be a coincidence?"

Glenn wasn't going to tolerate him and ruthlessly exposed his lies.

The surrounding researchers completely ignored their confrontation and continued their discussion as if they didn't exist.

After Principal Kieran was exposed, he wasn't embarrassed. His tone remained calm as he asked Carl with a puzzled look:

"Really? I don't recall inviting the Shadow King. Karl, what's going on?"

Suddenly, the pressure fell on Karl. Fine beads of cold sweat appeared on his forehead, and he inwardly cursed:

"Teacher, this doesn't suit your image at all! Where is my dignified, elegant, and knowledgeable teacher? Give him back to me."

Faced with the teacher's questioning, Karl, like a wronged child, held back his tears and said pitifully:

"Teacher, I think it's appropriate to involve His Majesty the Shadow King of the Angel Civilization in today's topic. After all, we might need his help. So, I've taken the liberty of inviting the Shadow King. Please don't blame me, teacher."

His tone was impassioned and passionate, as if he wanted to release the grievances in his heart.

After hearing this, Kieran looked understanding and then said matter-of-factly:

"In that case, please allow Lord Shadow King to take a tour and offer some guidance."

After speaking, he slightly shifted his body to make way for Glenn, his meaning becoming all too clear.

"Depend on!"

Glenn cursed inwardly again to express his current state of mind.

"I never expected this! I never expected that you, Kieran, would be this kind of person. No wonder you treated me that way later. You really have a dark side! You're mocking me, aren't you? You're ridiculing me, aren't you? We'll see. If you can get even the slightest benefit out of me, I'll change my name backwards."

His inner dissatisfaction was almost written all over his face, though of course he had a mask to cover it up. He could express his emotions without restraint, but only through facial expressions.

Calming his inner turmoil, Glenn said in a friendly voice:

"Principal Kiran is joking. I don't have that kind of ability. I accepted Karl's invitation today with a learning attitude. After all, the Angel Civilization is still no match for the Divine River Civilization, wouldn't you agree?"

Glenn politely declined Kieran's offer, determined not to fall for it; that guy was ruthless.

Seeing this, Kieran didn't press the matter, but said with a hint of regret:

"Oh! That's a pity. I'd like to hear your advice! After all, you inherited the legacy of the Pangu civilization, didn't you? You must have some different ideas."

"Oh! So that's where you were waiting for me! You old schemer."

Glenn immediately knew that Kieran was still eyeing the Pangu civilization's rune technology, which raised his opinion of the guy's cunning to a whole new level.

Even so, it should still be said that it's best to be humble on someone else's turf, since you still need their help.

So he gave an ambiguous reply:

"I wouldn't call it inheritance, but I can certainly apply some of it. After all, we're from different eras, and there are bound to be differences. Of course, if Principal Kiran needs me, I'll do my best to help you, since my abilities are limited, aren't they?"

After Glenn finished speaking, he just looked at Principal Kieran quietly. He could help, but how much help was hard to say, after all, he was not as powerful as the like.

Upon hearing Glenn's reply, Principal Kieran's tone softened somewhat, and he said:

"If that's the case, then that's wonderful."

After saying that, he fell silent and turned to look ahead, where a data projection displayed a human body model, with gene fragments constantly updating beside it, as if it were deducing something.

Kieran said this, but only he knew his true thoughts, just like Glenn's.

Don't treat others like fools, and don't take yourself too seriously.

The atmosphere in the room quieted down for a moment, with only the researchers' discussions continuing, which eased the tension considerably.

Karl, who had been standing to the side, was devastated. In a battle between two armies, one must be wounded, and he was the scapegoat. How tragic.

However, he soon had no time to dwell on these things, because the deduction had reached its final stage and the results were about to be released.

As the data stream suddenly stopped, a set of data suddenly appeared, and everyone else stared intently at it.

Glenn did not react to this because he did not understand it. Although he did not understand it, he could guess a little bit about it.

Judging from the surrounding data, they were researching something driven by stellar energy, which was related to genes. In Glenn's view, there was only one such thing: one of the three major projects, the light that illuminates the darkness—the light of the sun!

Thinking about this, Glenn stroked his chin thoughtfully.

"Could this be the pinnacle of stellar drive technology, the Sun God—the Light of the Sun?"

Thinking of this, Glenn was startled, then overwhelmed with joy. An irrepressible impulse almost welled up inside him; he wanted to possess it, or rather, master this technology.

This thought was fleeting, but Glenn quickly dismissed it. The research findings on the light of the sun were of no use to him; he himself was one of the three great projects, the sword that cuts through fear—the power of the galaxy!

He has no need for that; what he needs is stellar energy-driven technology to support his future plans, which is what he is most concerned about.

The scale of future engineering projects requires a continuous supply of energy, and to achieve this, stellar energy-driven technology is essential, as only stellar energy is a continuous source of power.

As for the method of achieving energy-free operation through the universe, in his understanding, even the Shenhe civilization might not be able to fully understand it, let alone him. Therefore, he decided to use the most advanced stellar energy driving technology to achieve his goal.

And this was in the hands of the Super God Academy, right before his eyes, within reach.
