Ding Ling’s mention of the legend of Atlantis suddenly made me think of many things.

After all, the existence of the Xyrin Empire was truly steeped in legend, and with my particularly rich imagination, as long as someone started a topic, I would inevitably make these messy associations…

I didn’t know if Qianqian and her sister had the same flurry of thoughts as I did, but one thing was certain, they must have thought of something, or they wouldn’t have had such a thoughtful look.

“Based on our current guess, the appearance of these crystals and some other mystic relics are very likely related to the legendary Atlantis,” Ding Ling said thoughtfully, playing with a black crystal in her hand.

“Have you already found the true location of Atlantis?”

I asked in surprise, because there was never a clear statement about the location of Atlantis, and archaeologists had never found remnants of this once great and powerful ancient civilization. Currently, the places on Earth claimed to be remnants of Atlantis were highly controversial, even the underwater ruin that had recently gained agreement among many experts and scholars wasn’t without its detractors. If Atlantis really had something to do with the Xyrin Empire, then the true relics of Atlantis definitely wouldn’t be those few spots currently known to humankind. Although the Superpower Team didn’t know about the Xyrin Empire, based on their study of the Xyrin items, which far surpassed human technological achievements, it wasn’t difficult to refute the guess that “those unknown underwater cities were Atlantis.” Could it be that they really discovered a Xyrin outpost base on the ocean floor, showcasing super battleships and armored soldiers?

...

Although the guess that Earth was a Xyrin Colony had been disproven by me, it was quite possible that the Xyrin Expeditionary Army had once stayed on Earth, so it was possible for one or two Xyrin bases or even temporary military cities to appear on Earth. Earth, especially the ocean, which covers a vast area, hasn’t been explored by humans even to a tenth of its extent, so it’s possible that a supercity really exists somewhere underwater and hasn’t yet been discovered.

However, Ding Ling shook her head, “The Atlantis relics currently rumored outside are just misleading; they have nothing to do with what we found. We connected Atlantis to these crystals because of something we found two days ago in the Amazon Zone, that…”

She stopped suddenly at this point, and two seconds later, Liu Zicai pushed the door open and came in.

At this moment, I really wanted to drag this troublesome and despicable guy out for the Ten Tortures of the Qing Dynasty.

Have you ever had the experience where you were reading a novel during class, engrossed in a climactic scene, only for a troublesome old lady to swoop in and confiscate your beloved book? If you have, I think you can understand how I felt right now.

“Ladies, we have arrived…” Liu Zicai, completely unaware that he had just interrupted an important conversation among bigwigs, still put on a faux-gentlemanly attitude towards the girls, “Hmm? You ladies seem to be in a bad mood? Could it be motion sickness? Or is it because of my negligence that you esteemed young ladies have to deal with someone…”

As Liu Zicai spoke, he looked disdainfully in my direction, the scorn in his eyes unabashed.

Ever since he learned of Lin Xue’s astounding identity, he considered the guy in front of him as someone thinking too highly of his luck, always looking for opportunities to strike at me.

If it weren’t for the fact that Princess Sandora was unexpectedly staying at my place, and the last three top-notch assassins he sent out inexplicably went mad, perhaps Mr. Liu would have planned another assassination drama.

The few girls in the room glanced at each other, then simultaneously turned to Liu Zicai and shouted in unison, “Get out!”

Since we had already reached our destination, this guy was useless thus he had no value left to use.

Liu Zicai was suddenly choked up and couldn’t recover, having initially boarded the vehicle, the pretty girls hadn’t paid much attention to him, but they were at least amiable. How could they suddenly become so fierce in a blink of an eye?

At that moment, I heard my sister whisper something under her breath.

“Get ready for a show,” I suddenly whispered in Ding Ling’s ear.

“What?” The other person hadn’t reacted yet, but Liu Zicai had already eagerly responded to the Curse Goddess’s call.

Accompanied by a ground-shaking blast of compressed air — okay, it was just a loud fart — Liu Zicai’s face turned pale, and then he almost scrambled and tumbled as he ran out.

Compared to mammoths and Five Thunders Bombarding, this prank by my sister was just child’s play.

The car stopped in a desert town with a particularly tongue-twisting name. As soon as I opened the car door, the rolling heat wave nearly pushed me back, and the dry, moistureless air made me feel suffocated.

Without hesitation, I picked up Pandora and brought everyone closer, saying, “Three-speed surround cooling with automatic humidifier.”

…Phew, that brought me back to life.

Feeling the gentle cool breeze around and the fresh, moist air as if standing in front of a waterfall, Ding Ling looked astonished and envious. She exclaimed, “The Great Thousand World is full of wonders, such a leisure superpower really exists.”

“Yeah, but it’s not so leisurely when the temperature hits minus two hundred and twenty-two degrees,” I casually fabricated. Ding Ling immediately positioned Pandora’s superpower as temperature control.

Little Baobao was seeing such a bustling town for the first time; she was born in the Xyrin Nest during her time in the Otherworld and had lived in a base ever since, only seeing soldiers and war chariots daily. She had no idea what the outside world was like, so now the little one was quite excited. She babbled about everything she saw, but unfortunately, other than Bubbles, no one could understand her. Bubbles… had been half-asleep since a while ago, just being led around the streets by Sandora.

I’m really envious of that ability to connect to the internet and play games anytime…

Three minutes later, each of us was walking down the street with an ice cream.

Even with Pandora’s air conditioning, looking at the foreigners around whose skin looked like roast meat and the air slightly distorted by the dry heat, I still felt something was missing if I didn’t eat some cold dessert – despite Ding Ling repeatedly emphasizing that it was devastating to the stomach. However, we rebutted her theory from the dialectical view that superpower users are not ordinary people, and we successfully dragged her down with us.

Apart from us few natives from Earth, it was the first time for Sandora and others to try ice cream. The Xyrin Apostles had arrived on Earth after the cold dessert season, so they showed great interest in this magical food.

Sicaro, dressed in a sweltering black suit and sunglasses, looked comically ridiculous with an ice cream cone in hand; Bubbles and Little Baobao, sharing a cone because of their age, ate with a sisterly vibe; Pandora was held in my arms, licking the cream on the ice cream delicately; Wenwen ate quietly and cutely; Asida and Asidora occasionally exchanged their cones, eating joyously; Sandora, with two extra-large cones, one in each hand, ate in a shockingly unconventional manner…

Ding Ling told us that there was another superpower user waiting here. We were now on our way to find him.

“Didn’t you say you snuck out without the others in the organization knowing?” Lin Xue was curious about Ding Ling’s companion, “Who else came with you?”

Ding Ling shrugged her shoulders and said, “I know you don’t like that guy, but if it weren’t for his help, I wouldn’t have known you were in trouble. So, I had to let him come along.”

Hearing this, Lin Xue immediately frowned and said, “I knew it was that guy, such bad luck…”

A superpower user that was incompatible with Lin Xue?

I couldn’t help but become a bit curious about this mysterious person.
