Chapter 496 Star Sea Time-Space Bureau 5
Click click click.

In a few seconds.

Countless weapons were aimed at her vulnerable spots.

Their sheer number is almost greater than the number of people in the plaza in front of the Time and Space Bureau!
233, who was originally suspended in mid-air, was so frightened that he went limp before he could figure out what was going on.

It felt threatened by death, and the entire system was almost fainting.

Just before it hit the ground with a thud, Zhu Wen caught it in time and tucked it into his sleeve.

"Let's hide for a while."

After whispering to 233, she slowly smiled, her eyes narrowing.
"Quinn, isn't this a bit too much? Anyone who didn't know better would think you weren't dealing with me alone, but with some kind of Starfleet!"

Quinn's expression was solemn, and he dared not relax in the slightest:
"You can never be too cautious with you! After all, I know your strength better than anyone else! Zhu Wen!"

Zhu Wen clicked his tongue twice:

"Why don't you call me 'Zero' anymore? To be honest, I also really hate this name. I've told you so many times to change it, but you just won't listen."

Quinn clenched his fist and interrupted her, somewhat agitated:
"Stop pretending! Hate this name? Are you kidding me! Shouldn't you love this name the most? It symbolizes the highest honor of the Time and Space Bureau, the highest rank that even the director has to give way to! Look! Even just now in the square, everyone noticed you first, not me!"

Zhu Wen was somewhat surprised:

"Are you jealous? Jealous? Is that all?"

Quinn gritted his teeth, making a grinding sound.
"What do you take me for... How could I be jealous of you over such a trivial matter!"

"You're broken."

Zhu Wen calmly explained, which only made Quinn angrier.

But she seemed oblivious to Quinn's explosive rage, continuing her analysis as if nothing was amiss:

"If you're not jealous of me over such a trivial matter, then you must be jealous of me over something else? Ah, you're not still holding a grudge about the competition for the bureau chief back then, are you? I've told you so many times, I really didn't want to be the bureau chief. I'm retired now, are you still hung up on it?"

Quinn, his expression unpredictable, uttered only three words—

Can't let go.

Indeed, Quinn never forgot that humiliation throughout the long half-star sea era.

He thought he was the chosen one, the successor favored by the previous director.

Therefore, He worked diligently and never dared to slack off.

Every minute of my life is planned in order to take over as bureau chief.

He was almost perfect in every aspect: connections, ability, temperament, reputation!

But when the old director was about to retire, he told Him that He was not the candidate for the new director in his mind, and that Zhu Wen was more suitable for the role!

When Quinn smiled and told the old chief, "I think so too," his heart had already been gnawed away by venomous snakes!
Only a few words were in His mind: Why should He?
Why is it that Zhu Wen, who always acts carelessly and without regard for consequences, is still able to gain the old director's attention?

Why is it that Zhu Wen never defends her reputation, yet countless people still worship, respect, and love her, and even frantically want to follow her?

Why is it that countless beings in the Time and Space Bureau fight for their own interests, while Zhu Wen does nothing, yet the sweetest cake, which is also what He has always dreamed of, is presented to her and begged to accept it?

Why... is His position as Director of the Time and Space Bureau something she doesn't want!

That year, when Zhu Wen rejected the old director's proposal and said in person, "Quinn is more suitable than me."

For Quinn himself, this was not a surprise, but a great humiliation!

He felt that he could never surpass Zhu Wen, and would always be one step behind her!
What angered Him most was...

He couldn't refuse the position of bureau chief.

Everything he did in his life was to strive for the position of bureau chief.

Even if it was humiliation, He willingly shouldered it and worked hard for it.

He hopes that through his own efforts, he will eventually be worthy of this position. He also hopes that everyone can see the true nature of Zhu Wen and recognize His goodness.

But the result was that even after he became the director of the Time and Space Bureau, there was still a lingering dark cloud hovering over his head.

That dark cloud is called Zhu Wen, also known as Zero, and is the uncrowned king of the Time and Space Bureau.

...How could Quinn possibly understand this!
Zhu Wen found Quinn's accusations utterly boring.

"Oh."

How cliché!
I thought they could come up with something new.

Who would have thought that, after all the back and forth, it was still this little bit of jealousy that was at play.

Zhu Wen had experienced far too many things like this, to the point that she was somewhat numb to it.

Even though she knew Quinn was plotting against her, she couldn't be bothered to get angry.

Oh, of course, those who should be suppressed will still be suppressed.

She is not a compassionate or kind person.

"Are you finished?"

Zhu Wen impatiently urged Quinn to deliver His "last words".

This made Quinn laugh in exasperation!
"Do you know how many weapons are pointed at you right now? If I blink, you'll be reduced to ashes in an instant? Do you understand?"

Zhu Wen looked around:
"Should I be afraid? But what can I do? I can't be afraid. Because... you're all too slow!"

boom!
It's the sound of a sonic boom!

The world is slowing down infinitely, only Zhu Wen is speeding up.

The 233 inside her sleeve had already been shaken unconscious.

Only Zhu Wen appeared unfazed.

In an instant, she created countless shadows, each appearing beside the hidden weapon.

Those incredibly powerful quantum weapons were instantly reduced to ashes in her hands.

This includes things that Quinn secretly hid.

Quinn's expression changed drastically:

"How could this be... How did you know the location of these hidden weapons?!"

Zhu Wen calmly replied:
"I told you, you're too slow! Since you've targeted me, you should have attacked immediately instead of wasting time talking nonsense and letting me find them!"

Quantum weapons all utilize gravitational fields, so that slight fluctuation was not difficult for Zhu Wen to detect.

The problem is that Quinn poured out so much of her heart before she was attacked that Zhu Wen had ample time to find the weapons and destroy them.

This is probably what they mean by villains dying from talking too much.

Zhu Wen sighed again, thinking to himself that this was truly an inviolable and powerful law.

Then, she decisively attacked Quinn.

In just a few seconds, Quinn's powerful body, which was said to be able to walk through the stars, began to collapse.

He screamed in terror:

"How could this happen! How could this happen!"

He simply couldn't understand how he could be defeated by Zhu Wen in such a short time!

Does He not even have the strength to exchange a few blows with her?

why?
why?
A sharp glint flashed in Zhu Wen's eyes:
"The position of bureau chief is too comfortable."
