Chapter 163: So It Was You, The Spaceship Pilot!
"Chen Ye, what should we do next?" Tang Zichen asked.
"What else can we do?" Chen Ye smiled. "Just live life as usual, and when trouble comes, we'll deal with it!"
If this world truly operates like "Final Destination," then all defenses are useless. If Death marks you, accidents can happen anywhere.
In the movie "Final Destination," there was a person who locked himself in an empty room and actually managed to escape Death's pursuit for a long time.
But here, this is the enhanced version of "Final Destination," where even supernatural powers can appear.
Hiding in an empty room probably wouldn't do any good.
With that in mind, they hailed a taxi and headed for the city's finest hotel.
As Chen Ye put it, they should enjoy life. If the mysterious force targets them... let it come!
The taxi was passing through a road and stopped at a red light.
The light seemed to last quite a while—a full 60 seconds.
The driver took the opportunity to turn on the radio...
At that moment, a heavy truck was speeding down a slope to their left.
The truck driver was sweating profusely, his face pale, looking extremely uncomfortable.
He was steering with one hand while trying to grab some medicine from a compartment. However, during this process, his condition worsened. Before he could take the medicine, his vision suddenly went black, and he slumped over, collapsing onto the steering wheel.
With his body leaning forward and now unconscious, his right foot pressed heavily on the gas pedal, flooring it.
"Vroom!!"
The engine roared to life at maximum power.
The truck accelerated, its speed climbing faster and faster. Coupled with the downhill slope, it soon exceeded 80 km/h.
Fortunately, it wasn't rush hour, and the road was empty. But if it didn't stop soon, it would inevitably cause a serious accident.
Finally, the light turned green.
The taxi driver started the car and began moving forward.
Just as they crossed the crosswalk, the driver caught sight of the speeding truck from the corner of his eye. His expression changed instantly.
By then, the truck's speed had already surpassed 90 km/h!
The taxi had no time to avoid it...
"Bang!"
A deafening crash echoed down the road like a bomb going off.
The taxi crumpled like a piece of paper in front of the truck, instantly mangled, with shattered windows.
The truck itself flipped over, crushing the taxi beneath it as it skidded dozens of meters, finally crashing into the roadside barrier before coming to a halt.
The accident scene was utterly tragic.
The poor taxi was first violently hit, then crushed under the overturned truck, dragged dozens of meters... reduced to a slab of twisted metal.
Onlookers were horrified.
If that truck had hit them instead of the taxi... they couldn't even imagine the outcome.
Just as everyone assumed the people inside the taxi were undoubtedly dead...
Suddenly...
"Bang!" The truck's cab was lifted as if struck by a tremendous force, rolling to the side.
Two figures appeared before the crowd.
One man, one woman, both young.
The man was bald, with a well-proportioned build—not too muscular, not too thin.
The woman was beautiful, her features, figure, and aura all strikingly elegant.
What shocked the onlookers most was the green glow surrounding the woman, slowly dimming.
The crowd was stunned.
How had these two survived such a severe crash?
Chen Ye surveyed the chaotic scene around him, his expression darkening.
To outsiders, it looked like an ordinary, albeit severe, traffic accident.
But he and Tang Zichen knew what was really happening.
"We're being targeted this quickly?" Chen Ye frowned. "Does facing the disaster head-on make no difference at all?"
Tang Zichen thought for a moment. "Not necessarily. It could be aimed at me, and you just got caught up in it."
Seeing more and more people gathering around, Chen Ye said, "Let's get out of here first."
"Okay!"
Tang Zichen nodded.
The two left the scene of the accident.
However, the roadside was lined with surveillance cameras, and people had been recording the crash on their phones. Soon, their recent actions were posted online.
...
At the same time, in the real world.
In the capital of Xia Country, within a highly classified department, a top-secret meeting was underway.
Present at the meeting, aside from key officials, was Qin Muyin.
"So, why did you call me here?" Qin Muyin asked calmly.
Even in front of high-ranking officials, she exuded confidence, not intimidated in the slightest.
Her confidence didn't come from her position but from her strength.
Qin Muyin knew that if she ever lost her power, she could be removed from her role as the captain of the law enforcement team at any moment.
The meeting's host dared not neglect her question and immediately replied, "Captain Qin, and esteemed leaders, before we start the meeting, I'd like to show you a video."
As he spoke, a video played on the large screen in the conference room.
It showed an alien with four arms and blue skin.
Facing the camera, the alien introduced itself: "Hello, humans. I come from another world..."
The video ended quickly.
The host continued, "What you just saw isn't a sci-fi movie clip but a real, live recording. The alien you saw truly exists!"
The room was filled with expressions of surprise.
However, the shock quickly faded.
After all, the monsters appearing on Blue Star were also from other worlds, crossing through space-time wormholes to wreak havoc.
Everyone had long grown accustomed to all sorts of strange creatures. The appearance of an alien wasn't enough to astound them.
"This alien calls itself a Mogka," the host explained. "Mogka technology is highly advanced. For instance, this alien can use the smart brain in its body to quickly absorb knowledge from a computer, even if it's disconnected from the internet. It took only half an hour to learn our language."
"The Mogka has brought us two very troubling pieces of news!"
"First, it claims that our planet's current trajectory has aligned perfectly with the crossroads of numerous universes. The monsters outside the city walls are just the beginning. More beings from other universes will soon arrive, using our planet as a springboard to invade other worlds!"
"Simply put, our Blue Star might become a battleground for the multiverse!"
"And this Mogka crossed over from another universe through a world rift."
The host paused before continuing, "Second, according to this Mogka's account, its planet was recently defeated by a fleet of space pirates. Its entire race was either killed or captured. It alone managed to escape through a world rift and ended up in our world."
"If it could come here, then that fleet of space pirates can, too. Moreover, it is certain that those space pirates have already set their sights on us. We might be their next target!"
"Although the Mogka detonated its spaceship and destroyed the world rift during its escape, this will only delay them."
"Those space pirates possess more advanced technology. They could potentially repair the rift at any moment and descend upon our planet."
"We asked the Mogka what would happen if we were captured by these pirates."
"It advised that, if capture is imminent, we should choose death. If caught, our bodies will become food for the pirates, and our brains will be turned into bio-batteries, subjected to unimaginable suffering."
At this point, the room was filled with wide-eyed shock.
Some, unable to contain their fear, turned pale.
"Are we sure this isn't just fear-mongering?" someone couldn't help but ask.
The host responded, "What I just shared are the alien's own words. However, the central command believes it's prudent to prepare for the worst."
That made sense.
Better to be prepared than caught off guard.
"So, how do we prepare?" another person asked.
"That's the crux of the problem!" the host replied. "We don't know how to prepare."
"What do you mean?" Qin Muyin interjected. "Didn't the alien mention how to resist the space pirate fleet?"
"It's a fugitive itself; how could it know how to fight them off?"
The host sighed. "Its best suggestion was to use the time we have to build spaceships, abandon this planet, and wander the universe."
Anyway, this planet will inevitably become a battleground of the heavens. Even if we manage to perform a miracle and fend off the space pirate fleet with our current strength, we won't survive in the war of the heavens."
"In that Mogka's words, the monsters outside our city walls are merely the lowest forms of livestock in the multiverse. Only their beast kings qualify as higher beings!"
"And yet, these lowly creatures are enough to force us humans to hide behind our walls..."
After hearing this, the room fell into silence.
If everything the Mogka said was true...
It was truly a message of despair.
The strength of the enemies sounded overwhelming, leaving them with a deep sense of powerlessness.
A leader glanced at Qin Muyin and asked, "Director Zhang, did you tell that Mogka about our own powerful figures, like Captain Qin?"
Director Zhang was the meeting host.
Although merely a department head, he came from an important intelligence agency and couldn't be underestimated.
"Of course we did," Director Zhang replied. "We even showed the Mogka a video of Captain Qin demonstrating her power. It was indeed shocked. It said it couldn't understand how such a strong individual could exist on our backward planet."
Hearing this, Qin Muyin frowned. She didn't like being praised in this manner, especially in front of others.
Noticing Qin Muyin's expression, Director Zhang quickly added, "However, the Mogka said it still wasn't enough. The leader of the space pirates is also a super-powerful individual!"
"In fact, the Mogka's defeat wasn't solely due to the space pirate fleet's technology. They were ultimately defeated by this supreme leader!"
"The leader of the space pirate fleet, who calls himself the Cosmic Overlord, used just one move—the 'Star-Crushing Roar Cannon'—to utterly destroy Mogka's surface defenses and even damaged the planet's core, setting it on a path to destruction."
His words left everyone in shock once again.
One move that nearly destroyed an entire planet?
What kind of terrifying entity could do that?
Everyone's faces turned grim, even Qin Muyin's, whose delicate face showed intense seriousness.
Her mind involuntarily recalled that bald figure who had demonstrated incredible power in the arena.
But even he couldn't possibly stand against such an enemy, right?
Someone asked, "With our current technological reserves, we can't build spaceships capable of interstellar travel, can we? Did the Mogka offer any technical support?"
Director Zhang nodded. "Before it died, it handed over its smart brain to us. While the smart brain doesn't retain any critical data, it is, in itself, an incredibly advanced piece of technology. Its computational capabilities far exceed our supercomputers! According to Academician Lu, with the help of this smart brain, he could come up with a feasible spaceship construction plan within five years."
"Unfortunately, we probably don't have that much time..."
Qin Muyin caught the key point in Director Zhang's words. "What do you mean? The alien is dead?"
"Yes, it was severely injured while escaping from the space pirate fleet," Director Zhang said regretfully. "Its body structure is vastly different from ours, and our current medical technology couldn't treat its injuries. Moreover, the oxygen we breathe is toxic to it. It died an hour ago."
"From this point of view, it truly was an alien."
Hearing of the Mogka's death, everyone was slightly taken aback.
"If the information it brought is true, then we owe it a huge debt of gratitude," Qin Muyin suddenly said. "Such a being, even if it's an alien, deserves a proper burial."
Her words caused Director Zhang's face to turn awkward.
In reality, the higher-ups had no intention of burying the Mogka. They had, in fact, persuaded the authorities to study its body...
After all, it was a rare opportunity to examine an alien.
It would be a waste not to study it thoroughly.
...
Inside the No. 5 Secret Realm.
Chen Ye and Tang Zichen had already settled into a presidential suite at a five-star hotel.
Yes!
They had booked just one presidential suite.
This was a decision Chen Ye made for the sake of conveniently protecting Tang Zichen, with absolutely no other motives...
As for how they managed to book the room?
Simple.
They used someone else's ID and withdrew money from the bank. With their abilities, this was incredibly easy.
Isn't that unethical?
Please!
This is the Secret Realm!
A place where you fight for survival!
In such a place, all rules go out the window.
Survival can sometimes take precedence over morality.
Besides, they weren't deliberately committing murder or arson.
At the moment, Chen Ye was sitting on the sofa, gazing out the window, observing the scenery of the Secret Realm.
Their suite was on the 50th floor, providing a bird's-eye view of the cityscape below.
Chen Ye noticed that the city was incredibly vast. Even with his keen eyesight, he couldn't see its boundaries...
It was much larger than any city in the real world!
"Chen Ye."
Tang Zichen suddenly approached, holding a laptop. "I just found a video of our car accident online. It gained quite a bit of attention in a short time and was widely shared. But shortly after, all the videos were taken down."
"Oh?" Chen Ye was intrigued. "Only the authorities could have done that, right?"
Tang Zichen nodded. "I suspect that the government of this world already knows of our presence. Otherwise, they wouldn't have reacted so swiftly."
Chen Ye agreed with her suspicion.
The authorities' quick response indicated they didn't want their actions causing a stir on the internet.
It seemed that every year, participants in the No. 5 Secret Realm left some traces here.
Chen Ye suddenly smiled.
This was getting more interesting.
What role would the government of this world play next?
After pondering for a while, Chen Ye spoke up, "Class Rep, before we came, I asked Old Liu. As long as one of us makes it to the end, we both get the extra reward..."
Tang Zichen, being sharp, immediately grasped his meaning.
"You're telling me this because you want me to leave first while you stay to keep going?"
"Exactly!"
Chen Ye nodded, then explained to avoid any misunderstanding. "If you stay here, you'll not only be targeted by the mysterious force but might also attract the attention of those foreigners. Once they find out about your presence, they might use the same trick to gather around us, bringing even more misfortune."
Tang Zichen thought for a moment and said, "You have a point. I'll follow your suggestion and leave after 24 hours."
Chen Ye appreciated how this girl always remained calm and made the right decisions.
Unlike some other women, who might have thrown a tantrum.
If Chen Ye had made this suggestion to them, they would have retorted: "What do you mean? Are you saying I'm dragging you down? You look down on me, huh?"
Then they'd start making a scene...
