Chapter 1361: Chapter 537: Employing the Same Old Trick Chapter 1361: Chapter 537: Employing the Same Old Trick Upon hearing Xia Fan’s childlike speech, Yan Fei immediately furrowed his brow. Although Xia Fan was very beautiful and had a good figure, as well as a special charm that attracted people, Yan Fei would never take a liking to her.

Xia Fan’s origin was a mystery; her secretive nature was even comparable to that of the Ancestral Land. Despite utilizing Artificial Intelligence “Dream” to conduct extensive global searches, Yan Fei found nothing about Xia Fan’s background. Strangely, whenever Xia Fan entered the customs of various countries, the customs officers thoroughly inquired about her identity information, but as soon as Xia Fan left customs, there would be no intelligence left about her within the system, and those who had questioned her could not explain why. The same scenario occurred when Xia Fan entered Dream Island, where even the Artificial Intelligence “Dream” at Dream Island Customs failed to retain any identity information about her.

For someone with such an unclear background, Yan Fei had no desire to interact with her, let alone to fall for her. Even though Xia Fan had just strenuously denied it, the white light shield that had resisted the energy weapon attack was definitely related to her. Since Xia Fan was unwilling to tell Yan Fei the truth, there was nothing he could do; his only option was to stay far away from Xia Fan.

In Yan Fei’s view, Xia Fan was someone the hidden hand had arranged to be by his side, with the goal of using Xia Fan to further control his actions. Only under this explanation did the abnormal occurrences surrounding Xia Fan seem to make sense. However, Yan Fei had learned his lesson well with Wen Rou; he was absolutely not going to be fooled twice in the same way.

Although Yan Fei didn’t care for Xia Fan, he would not leave her here alone, especially since she had been bitten by a poisonous snake. It would be extremely dangerous to leave her behind. He decided to take her away from this place as an act of gratitude for her help in fending off the sky energy weapon’s fatal blow. Once he got Xia Fan to the hospital, Yan Fei planned to leave her and never meet her again. So for now, whatever Xia Fan was saying, he pretended not to hear.

Therefore, Yan Fei carried Xia Fan on his back and began to climb from the bottom of the five hundred-meter-deep Sky Pit. He had to leave this place to avoid a second attack from the energy weapons. The newly formed Sky Pit was rugged and its deepest point reached 500 meters; it would be extremely difficult for an ordinary person to climb to the top. However, with Yan Fei’s great strength, even while carrying another person, it took only a short while to reach the surface that hadn’t been attacked by energy weapons.

Throughout the journey, Xia Fan hugged Yan Fei’s neck and leaned contentedly against his back. Soon, she realized something and pulled out a small circular mirror from her embrace. Opening its lid, she used the mirror to check her makeup, and only after confirming that she was still beautiful and not disheveled, did she relax. Then she noticed a fine crack on the mirror; she smiled happily as she ran her finger over the fracture.

According to Yan Fei’s original plan, he had intended to return the same way and retrieve the energy-drained Mechanical Monkey to bring back to Dream Island for research. However, upon seeing two individuals on the distant mountainside reactivate their laser sights and begin scanning quickly towards him, he immediately changed his mind, no longer searching for the Mechanical Monkey and not even checking on the status of the Ancestral Land. Instead, he changed direction and bolted towards the distant mountains. Yan Fei ran to the foot of the mountains where he used the hollows and rocks to hide his traces, avoiding being locked on by the energy weapons once more.

In space, after several relays through the Dream Island Relay Satellite, Yan Fei used the Auxiliary Brain System to contact the Space-Based Weapon Launch Platform above the United States mainland. He used the devices on that platform to observe the situation in space below, seeking the Weapon Platform that had launched the Energy Attack on him.

Unfortunately, the area where Yan Fei was located was the darkest moment before dawn, and with the persistent intense Electromagnetic Pulse in space, the observational equipment on the Space-Based Weapon Launch Platform couldn’t accurately monitor the space below, and it failed to locate the trace of the Energy Weapon Launch Platform.

Unbeknownst to Yan Fei, after conducting its first attack, the space-based energy weapon platform had immediately retracted its large cannon and shut down its combat system; then, it activated the optical camouflage capability on the satellite once again, concealing itself within the dark expanse of space, making it impossible for anyone to detect its existence…
In the suburbs of Los Angeles, The United States of America’s Mysterious Aircraft had surpassed the Drone flying to its right. However, its current target was not the Drone but instead the AGM-129 Stealth Cruise Missile ahead. It continued to fly, approaching the ten AGM-129 Stealth Cruise Missiles in the air at a High Speed of Mach 5.

When the Mysterious Aircraft came within 5,000 meters in a straight line to the AGM-129 Stealth Cruise Missiles, blue light flickered in the energy cannon beneath the Aircraft, and then ten small blue Light Spheres shot out one after another. The blue Light Spheres flickered in the air and impacted the AGM-129 Stealth Cruise Missiles. Even though the AGM-129 Stealth Cruise Missiles were destroyed, the destructive force generated by the explosion remained incredibly substantial. Unfortunately, they exploded far from the ground, thus causing no impact on the surface.
