After all that chaos, Kevin Clark calmed down. He pushed himself up from the ground and asked, “A large wormhole, or is it artificially created?”

“Relax, relax!” Lauren said carelessly, “The Super God Academy has already activated the spatial solidification field. It might not be able to neutralize the wormhole, but it can delay its formation. Blue Star won’t be invaded right away.”

“So it will be invaded eventually!” Kevin Clark looked up at the sky. “Blue Star is just a pre-nuclear civilization. According to what you said, it’s under the protection of the Angelic Order. How could something like this suddenly appear? To pull off something like this, it must be a civilization at the Super God level, right?”

“Definitely not the Angel civilization. Even though they like to meddle and are extremely powerful, aside from their war with the demons, they wouldn’t proactively invade a planet belonging to the God River form civilization.” Lauren realized she was saying more and more, and the stinky Are you too lazy to bother destroying an anthill?

“Unless that ant nest is hiding gems or diamonds.” Kevin Clark replied, then couldn’t help but ask, “Is there anything on Blue Star worth the attention of a Super God-level civilization?”

“There is.” Lauren pointed around. “The Denon people came to this planet over three thousand years ago and were accepted by you. Their arrival attracted the Super God Academy to set up a branch here, and those Denon war gods only appeared in this era. Oh, and it’s possible someone discovered your special ability and came to Blue Star specifically to find you.”

Kevin Clark insisted he was just a kid. Even though he hadn’t tried hard to hide his ability, he definitely hadn’t made it known to the whole world. He also knew the Super God Academy had blocked information about it—there was no record on any network, and even if something did appear, it was quickly wiped clean.

“Looking for me? To catch me!?” Kevin Clark forced an awkward smile, nervously tugging at the corner of his mouth. “Believe it or not, I could transmit myself away in the next second, to somewhere even I don’t know. Try catching me then.”

“So it’s not teleportation? It’s transmission—transmission of what? Does it have an official name?” Lauren completely missed the point, speaking carelessly, “Don’t be afraid. Before you become my leg hair, you have to be my leg hair first. As the goddess, I solemnly declare: for you, stinky Daniel Parker, I, Lieyang, will not hesitate to go to war with any known or unknown world, with any civilization, until death!”

“…? O(s□t)o” Kevin Clark blinked, then pounced to hug Lauren’s thigh, rubbing his face against it with delight. “Mighty and domineering goddess, please trample me as much as you like!”

“Damn HU!” Eric Bennett happened to catch the tail end of this, utterly shocked and jealous, shouting exaggeratedly, “Damn, this is the most intense confession I’ve ever heard!”

Chapter 9: Between Men

“My name is…

And just now, I might have experienced the first uncontrollable excitement of my life.

That’s right, I was confessed to by a goddess!

A real goddess, the Dawn Goddess of the Lieyang civilization, the empress of a powerful empire ruling a vast galaxy.

My reaction was to pounce on the goddess’s thigh in excitement and gratitude, only to be kicked hundreds of meters away, crashing into the ground and leaving a huge pit.

Now, I’m still lying in the pit, savoring the feel of the goddess’s thigh…”

The “big dark cloud” in the sky no longer looked so violent, but it didn’t show any sign of coming to a complete stop. It was still reacting, just at a very slow pace.

At this moment, all the nations on Blue Star had received the news. Countless astronomers were being gathered to study and interpret the sudden cosmic anomaly.

On the side of the great eastern nation, since they had accepted some remnants of the Denon star system, they quickly learned the truth about the cosmic anomaly and began to take action.

The Super God Academy didn’t seem to change much because of the anomaly, but Kevin Clark clearly noticed that the proportion of cultural classes had shrunk drastically, while physical training and military-related courses had suddenly increased.

“I’m exhausted,” Eric Bennett was truly about to collapse. “Thirty thousand meters! They didn’t even give us a second to catch our breath, just made us run at full speed the whole way.”

The Four Scoundrels were in the same class, so they trained together. After class, they didn’t even bother to wash up, running straight to the cafeteria covered in sweat.

“Meat, meat! I’ve been burning so much energy lately, I can’t take it anymore. I need to eat more meat.” Brian Carter kept begging the lunch lady for extra meat, and was overjoyed and satisfied when he got a few more pieces. “I realize I’m actually pretty strong. I mean my willpower—I actually made it through. I didn’t drag the Four Scoundrels down, did I?”

“If you ask me, I still admire Qi-ge the most.” John Harris said as he scooped up food, not sure if he was praising or teasing. “He looked like he was about to collapse every second, but he still made it.”

“Damn it…” Kevin Clark felt completely limp, his muscles aching and every tendon stretched tight. “I’m clearly someone who can blink and teleport at any time—why did I have to run thirty thousand meters with everyone else?”
