Chapter 52 The Commander in 56 Seconds

First Truth University.

With nothing to do, Sha Jin leaned against a tree next to the playground, waiting for the professor to finish class.

There weren't too many people on the playground at the moment.

They are scattered here and there.

Dating, playing games, exercising...

He just stared at the gold dust, a flicker of childhood longing in his eyes?

After all, these were times he could never have.

He sometimes thought:

What if he also lived on an ordinary planet?

If he were an ordinary person...

Just then.

"Hey! Gambler!" Latio's appearance interrupted Sand Gold's train of thought.

Upon seeing this, Sand Gold's expression instantly turned nonchalant: "Professor, I was just wondering, what were you doing at the Black Tower Space Station?"

"Immersed in the space of 'intellectual'?"

Seeing his composure, Ladio did not refute him.

He simply shook his head: "No need to guess, I know it's probably one of the company's mediocre employees again."

Sand Gold played with the chips in his hand, which shimmered golden in the sunlight.

"Come on, Professor, I'll treat you to a lavish meal!"

Ladio closed the book, not refusing: "Where to?"

"The Canteen of Truth!"

Ladio: "..."

School cafeteria?

Then why would I need you to invite me?

Not far away, a group of newly enrolled girls were looking at this place with eyes full of admiration.

A girl whispered, "Is this Professor Veritas Latio?"

Another girl nodded frantically, like a chick pecking at rice: "Yes! It's my godfather without the plaster cast on his head!"

"Is that the professor's friend? I thought someone with the professor's personality wouldn't have any friends!"

"I feel fine! I heard it's just a bit strict, but everyone is taught without discrimination!"

"That's because this is First Truth University; there are no utterly stupid idiots here!"

"Huh?!"

Another girl who prioritizes looks said, "They're both equally handsome! They must be friends!"

These words were clearly heard by the two people walking side by side to the cafeteria.

Sand Gold's lips curled slightly: "Friend? I like that word!"

Ladio sighed, "They're a pretty group of freshmen, but unfortunately, their eyesight isn't great!"

......

The story continues.

Xing stared blankly at the mysterious plaster man.

Seeing this, Ladio spoke sternly, as if he were teaching his students.

"What are you standing there for? Do you have a lot of time? I don't think so."

Then, pointing to the downward-facing elevator ahead, he said, "Take the elevator down, and what you're looking for is there."

Xing asked in confusion, "Who are you?"

Ladio: "Before asking a question, consider whether the answer is helpful in solving the problem you are trying to solve."

Xing: "Huh?!"

Ladio shook his head in disappointment; he really didn't want to see that confused idiot anymore.

But then he thought that the other party didn't understand his personality, and sighed, "...Never mind, let's just take this as an example: I know who you are, and I know that you are working for Ruan Mei; I was originally a visitor to the space station, but I accidentally wandered into this place and witnessed her experiment."

"My goal is roughly the same as yours. Since you're here, I won't interfere; but if you fail, I will intervene forcefully to prevent unnecessary trouble."

Xing nodded: "You're a really nice person!"

Ladio: "..."

Bullet comments:

"Haha, these silly kids all have one thing in common—they're cute!"

"You never seem to think before you ask questions; I'm giving you time to make up for it."

"That phrase sounds so familiar!"

"Simply put, our godfather is here to cover for us!"

"Bingon! They're here to cause trouble!"

"A godfather with a sharp tongue but a soft heart!"

"Entering This Place by Mistake"

"I didn't wander in by accident!"

......

"Follow this elevator and witness—a masterpiece of genius."

After watching Xing take the elevator down, Ladio turned to look at the transparent glass to the side.

Here you can clearly see the situation inside the experimental field.

On the other side, a star was descending, looking at a somewhat open and eerie scene in the distance.

He unconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

It suddenly occurred to me: Aren't we aligned with the same goal? Can't we work together to solve it?

Why did I have to go first?!

But, since we're already here!

We had no choice but to muster our courage and go down to see for ourselves!

Upon closer inspection, the petri dish that existed behind Nguyen Mai's video was now broken.

Something clearly came out of there.

Bullet comments:

"Oh ho! Breeding Envoy!"

"Star: I want to fight the Breeding Envoy? Are you sure?"

"Can we win?!"

"It's guaranteed to be safe!"

"Is the time card really that reliable? It just happened to appear right after the stars came down?"

"It's like it was all pre-arranged—the mind of a genius!"

"I didn't hear the petri dish break?"

"Maybe the soundproofing here is too good?"

......

Next, the plot unfolds in a dramatic sequence:

Xing cautiously approached the shattered petri dish, but her gaze was drawn to the viscous liquid on the ground.

Just as she was wondering what was going on, a huge shadow fell over her.

Xing's pupils contracted slightly, and a look of shock appeared on her face.

next second.

Its enormous blue insect body was fully revealed, exuding a sense of oppression, accompanied by the sound of its segments rubbing together.

The Star-Shattering King Insect Skarakabaz (simulated) spread its fangs in this gradually collapsing void.

She felt the hairs on the back of her neck stand on end, and a kind of instinctive sense of crisis made her twist her body, pull out the stick, and swing it backward almost simultaneously.

The whistling sound of the baseball bat cutting through the air mingled with the sound of something hard shell striking the ground.

The image is shattered.

Battle begins!

A powerful electronic battle theme song began to play.

Xing's tone was one of shock: (A clone of a "breeding" envoy?! How is this possible...)

Bullet comments:

"Wow, I actually created a clone of the messenger!"

"Are you crazy? If these things get out, won't it cause another locust plague?!"

"Physical, ice, and imaginary weaknesses—these perfectly correspond to the current card pool; it's definitely going to be the boss!"

"Electronic music king! The background music is so upbeat!"

......

It's the familiar semi-finished quantum warship. (Full-star Silver Wolf and Seele)

But the damage at this stage is comparable to a major stroke of luck!

Before the boss could unleash its charged ultimate attack, its health was reduced to 1%, forcibly locking its health.

Battle over!

The scene changes.

Plot development:

The Star-Shattering Insect King gathered its power in mid-air, and a powerful sense of oppression swept over us.

The star, who had just been driven back, understood the situation perfectly—the Insect King absolutely could not be allowed to complete its charge!

So she gritted her teeth and swung the baseball in her hand.

They ran toward the charging Insect King, dealing with the True Stinging Insects flying around them as they ran.

Flip—dodge—evade.

But there were too many insects, enough to prevent her from getting close to the insect king.

The Insect King in the air completed its charge, and a blue prismatic energy sphere, with a center resembling a black hole, crashed down towards Xing.

The energy flow in the air was so intense that Xing could hardly breathe.

The immense power wiped out all the true gnats along the way, just as it was about to touch the star.

The next moment, the blue energy ball annihilated itself, turning into blue particles along with the Star Shattering Insect King, which was struggling wildly in the air, and dissipated into the air.

It was as if it had never existed.

The camera pans up.

Ladio stood high above, muttering to himself, as if it were an experimental report: "After 56 seconds, it could no longer maintain its existence and was completely annihilated, as if it had never been born."

Ladio snorted and turned to leave: "The threat has been eliminated; there's no need to stay here."

The animation ends.

Bullet comments:

"Good heavens! We almost had to resort to breeding!"

"If it had been a second later, the star core would have exploded, affecting the entire space station."

"The two dramatic segments combined are exactly 56 seconds long. Was Nguyen Mai's calculation really that accurate?"

"This Insect King's ultimate move looks pretty cool—Insect King in Another Dimension!"

"Xingbao is amazing! She held out against the fake messenger for almost a minute!"
