บท 303: Chapter 301 Extraterrestrial Visitors
Throughout history, some humans on Earth have come to understand that in the vast expanse of the universe, they are not alone. However, this universe, based on the Nine Realms, is as boundless as a forest without borders, rich in resources.
Under the endless nights, races that lit the torch of civilization were like small hunters, living in isolation within their own little circles. Only when one side crafted firearms and fired into the void did the other side become vaguely aware of their existence.
In the year 965 AD, Earth, specifically Norway, suffered an invasion from beings from other worlds known as Frost Giants. The Frost Giants aimed to freeze Earth back into an ice age and transform it into their own territory within the human world.
They were ultimately defeated by the god-king Odin and his armies. A Divine Weapon, the Casket Of Ancient Winter, was sealed in Odin's treasure vault, and the defeated Frost Giants retreated to their own realm.
Hence, Nordic legends contain stories about Asgard, the Bifrost, Odin, Thor, and other extraterrestrial deities.
Over the millennia, various life forms from outer space came to Earth without revealing their identities and left unnoticed.
A thousand years later, in the 21st century, humanity finally had the technological means to explore outer space. People with a sense of awe and ambitious individuals ventured into the dark forest of the universe, pulling the trigger on the first shot!
At this moment, outer space around Earth was desolate and dark. Within the orbital trajectory near Earth, a spaceship's interior was engulfed in raging flames.
Hovering within the intact section, a surviving female astronaut held a briefcase. Her young and beautiful face was filled with terror as she floated through the weightless corridor, trying to escape.
Inside the tightly sealed briefcase, several containers made of tempered glass held blobs of unidentified liquid that swirled vigorously. They violently struck the glass walls as if trying to break free.
"Hiss!"
In the section of the spaceship engulfed in destructive flames, a horrifying humanoid monster emerged. It seemed to melt like a snowman in the intense heat, emitting a sharp and unpleasant hissing sound.
"Oh God, please protect me."
The female astronaut muttered repeatedly as she glanced at a family photo on the shelf behind her. She then operated the space door at the end of the corridor and entered an emergency escape pod, carrying the briefcase with her.
Half a minute later, the escape pod detached from the now fully collapsing and exploding spaceship, returning toward the Earth below, which radiated a faint halo.
New York, Empire State Building.
As a Supernatural Incident Bureau, locals in New York had gotten used to it. There were still crowds of people from all over the world who acted as if the famous building was a tourist attraction.
Of course, this was all thanks to Kyle, who had specifically opened this public facade for Carl Family to connect with the world.
Now, it seemed that the goal had been fully achieved.
Although entry into the building's ground floor lobby required application and screening, a large crowd still filled the information desk, with people queuing up in the early morning.
At this moment, suddenly, two women entered the building without any security checks. They walked shoulder to shoulder in the direction of the exclusive elevators. All eyes in the lobby fell upon them, and everyone was mesmerized. The room fell into silence as people held their breaths.
Either of the two women would be capable of turning heads on the street anywhere in the world, yet now, both were walking side by side, creating a remarkable sight. They were like a duo that could captivate individuals of all ages and genders.
"New York is amazing; it has such gorgeous women, and we get to see two of them at once."
Eddie, who was seated on a waiting chair in the lobby, couldn't take his eyes off them. His hormones went into overdrive, and he gulped down saliva like a waterfall. He even contemplated taking out his camera from his backpack to capture this extraordinary sight.
He had initially planned to go to his workplace and report, but when he passed by the Empire State Building, he couldn't resist coming inside to observe.
Little did Eddie expect to witness such a scene.
As Eddie reached for his camera, it was swiftly snatched by a young man with blond hair seated beside him.
"What are you doing?" Eddie looked at him with a displeased expression on his face, his voice instinctively lowering.
"Brother, I'm saving you," The young man with blond hair tucked the camera inside his coat and pointed to the sunglasses-wearing security guards lurking in the corners.
He whispered, "You're new here, aren't you? You don't know the rules. Inside the Empire State Building, taking pictures is prohibited. If you did then you would face the consequences on your own."
"Besides, you're not just using a camera; you actually want to take pictures of those two women— this would be a disaster." The young man explained in a hushed voice. At the same time, he cast regretful glances at the two women's retreating figures.
Eddie gazed after them, itching to know, and asked, "Who are they?"
"You're definitely new here," The young man with blond hair patted Eddie on the shoulder, his voice lowered once again. He helplessly said, "They are the owners of this building."
Eddie's heart quivered, and he lamented, "I see."
Women associated with the Symbol of Peace were off-limits, of course.
As if hearing their conversation, Lorna's face took on a faint Carina smile, and she, together with Raina, entered the exclusive elevator.
"That guy, I wonder if he's still in bed."
"It's not just some guy; it's Boss."
"Raina, you shouldn't spoil him. For the past half year, he has hardly gone outside. He neither researches armored technology nor manages our forces. He spends his days on the top floor, working on godly powers."
"All of what you just said—if you dare say it in front of Boss, then I won't have any objections."
Inside the ascending elevator, Lorna gently shook Raina's left arm, expressing her dissatisfaction. The two of them had a brief conversation.
After Raina moved out with Kyle, Lorna's confidence seemed to diminish. Gritting her teeth lightly, she said, "I certainly dare."
The exclusive elevator, which required Advanced-level permissions from the family, stopped near the top floor.
After the elevator doors opened, Lorna released Raina's arm and eagerly stepped into the living room.
"Boss, are you awake? Would you like breakfast?" Lorna spoke softly, adopting the appearance of an obedient child. There was no hint of her previous complaints and domineering demeanor.
She was fearless in the face of anything except Boss. Only Boss could rein her in.
Raina chuckled inwardly and subtly activated his psychic powers. An invisible force gently swept through the space of the entire building.
"Hmm?" Raina paused for a moment and then said, "Strange, Boss isn't here."
Simultaneously, Raina's potent psychic powers crisscrossed, penetrating the walls and sweeping through the entire Empire State Building's floors.
"Where is he?" Lorna asked anxiously.
"He's not here; Boss has left the Empire State Building," Raina said with a slight frown.
Kyle had barely left the Empire State Building in the past six months. The few times he did venture outside, he had always been accompanied by the two of them.
"Could something urgent have come up?" Raina and Lorna exchanged a worried glance. If Kyle had to take action personally, did it mean the end of the world?
