Just as Ye Yao was using her own 'Magic Conch'...

Lou Wei was busy quelling chaos in a small country in his capacity as a member of Sequence Zero.

After three months away from Ye Yao and Ye Tong, he was finally able to rest.

Even if he was running all over the world with Mu Luo and the others, with absolutely no time for a break, it was still a form of relaxation for Lou Wei.

He had thought things through.

After the conflict with Ye Tong erupted, both sides needed a period of cooling off.

If Lou Wei tried everything to find her and apologize, it might only make things worse.

If Ye Tong didn't want to see him, then so be it.

When Lou Wei first joined Sequence Zero, he indeed had the idea of wanting to understand Ye Tong and show her his sincerity.

But later, once he got into work mode, he found the feeling he'd had years ago.

That internal anxiety would naturally fade.

Back then he governed a country; now he was governing the world.

One's mindset was far more important than the method used to solve a problem.

As for becoming a father recognized by Ye Tong, it was better to leave that to fate.

Since facing these things in his own way was prone to screwing up, it was better to just do his duty well.

Now that he was out with Mu Luo and the others from Sequence Zero, he didn't have to face the suffocating feeling Ye Yao brought, nor did he have to deal with Xiao Jing's scolding. It was a rare moment of peace.

Of course, this didn't mean Lou Wei had forgotten his responsibilities.

He just wanted to take this quiet time to think things over and see himself clearly.

"Lou Wei, this country is being reborn. Prepare to move to the next location."

Mu Luo appeared behind Lou Wei without him noticing.

"Mm."

Lou Wei responded indifferently, appearing quite calm.

Mu Luo didn't seem dissatisfied; this was just their personalities and their natural way of communicating.

There were no signs of friendship, only professional interaction.

Mu Luo had never truly considered Lou Wei a comrade.

To him, perhaps only the companions he had personally picked up were worthy of his trust.

Originally, Mu Luo thought Lou Wei had joined Sequence Zero with impure motives.

For example, wanting to use this channel to communicate with Ye Tong.

As it turned out, after three months, he hadn't mentioned a single word about it; he was a pure workaholic.

Mu Luo felt that Lou Wei was not inferior to himself in that regard.

Therefore, he had another guess: Lou Wei had come to Sequence Zero to seek refuge.

"How is your mastery of Form Techniques coming along?"

Lou Wei asked casually.

"Only Celestial Form remains unmastered."

"Not bad."

Lou Wei acknowledged Mu Luo's talent.

One had to realize that the term used here wasn't 'use,' but 'mastery.'

Being able to proficiently master a single Form Technique would make one a standout even among S-Class Espers.

Mu Luo had the potential of a Super S-Class Esper.

Of course, it could also be because Ye Tong had raised his upper limits.

Besides him, Gu Wenxin was making similar progress.

Jiang Huashen was also on the verge of being promoted to S-Class; his future achievements would definitely be high.

In the Countermeasure Bureau, they would all be peerless powerhouses guarding a region.

As for Yu Jin, he was very strong and his Superpower was mysterious; one could only say his future was promising.

Lou Wei had been conscientious during this period, teaching Mu Luo and the others all the techniques he knew.

As for whether they would use these techniques to break into the Countermeasure Bureau's /N_o_v_e_l_i_g_h_t/ restricted zones again, that was no longer important.

With just a word from Ye Tong, those so-called restricted zones could become her playground.

"You can try to develop your own Form Techniques; it might make you even stronger."

Lou Wei had been studying the effects of Corona Form during this time.

The power brought by this form was incredibly overbearing. The power of a star was invincible, but using it meant death.

Later, through mental simulations and research, Lou Wei finally stabilized a version of Corona Form where he wouldn't die.

But even so, the price of activating this Form Technique was no less than that of Future Form; it had simply gone from certain death to a narrow escape.

At least there was some possibility of survival.

Except for a battle for survival, there seemed to be no need to use Corona Form again.

However, Lou Wei had a premonition that he might need to use this Form Technique again in the near future.

Lou Wei recalled the duel in space.

Such a massive fluctuation of Spiritual Power might have transmitted some kind of information beyond the solar system.

Tu Sheng had said that the Spirit of Vengeance is the wreckage of a civilization, which meant there was more than just the human civilization.

Perhaps after the human civilization is destroyed by a World-Ending Ability, it will also give birth to a Spirit of Vengeance.

Other space-times might have human civilizations, so could there also be powerful civilizations in this space-time that haven't been destroyed yet?

Currently, humanity has just started; Superpowers have only existed for a century, and the interstellar era has not yet begun.

But perhaps some civilizations have already used this power to step into an era far more advanced than humanity's.

It wasn't entirely impossible for the Spiritual Power fluctuations from that time to have been captured.

Lou Wei felt a faint sense of unease in his heart.

He had to prepare for this.

Of course, individual strength might not be enough to solve all problems.

Mu Luo and the others were undoubtedly candidates who could shoulder the burden.

Since Ye Tong was kind-hearted, the Sequence Zero she founded would ultimately stand at the very front.

All Lou Wei could do was give them some pointers to prevent them from dying due to inferior skills.

The death of an important companion might stimulate Ye Tong and trigger a world-ending crisis.

It would be the best outcome if they could create their own Form Techniques.

During his time with them, Lou Wei had come to acknowledge them to some extent.

Although Mu Luo's personality was still dark and his style of doing things wasn't much different from before, he was at least not beyond redemption.

It was just a pity he didn't belong to the Countermeasure Bureau.

Mu Luo's indifferent gaze fixed on Lou Wei's back.

He was naturally working hard on becoming stronger, but there was one thing he wanted to know more.

"Did you really join Sequence Zero because you wanted to see Ye Tong?"

"Perhaps I just wanted some peace and quiet for a while."

Lou Wei paused for a moment.

"Don't tell her."

Mu Luo was silent for a few seconds. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

He had heard from Ye Yao that Lou Wei was like a malfunctioning robot.

But he didn't look like he was malfunctioning.

"I will tell her."

Mu Luo chose to betray Lou Wei without hesitation.

Even after working together for three months, how could a mere Lou Wei compare to the Ye Tong he had personally picked up?

There was simply no comparison.

Moreover, Lou Wei wasn't even a true member of Sequence Zero yet.

Lou Wei acknowledged them, but Mu Luo had not acknowledged him.

Even if his efficiency was indeed high.

Lou Wei sighed softly, as if accepting his fate.

"Forget it, tell her if you want. I'm used to it."

Just as Lou Wei was preparing to follow Mu Luo to the next location, a message from the Countermeasure Bureau interrupted his actions.

Looking at the 'Emergency Situation' displayed on the screen, Lou Wei never expected his vacation to end so quickly.

"I need to take a leave of absence for a while."

"I thought you were going to say you were quitting Sequence Zero or something," Mu Luo narrowed his eyes.

"I'm not that heartless."

Joining and quitting whenever he pleased...

That would undoubtedly make a certain someone very angry.

Lou Wei didn't want to screw things up.
