"Wow, they're that vigilant?"

Luo Chen raised an eyebrow, but upon closer inspection, it made sense. Anyone would react to the sudden appearance of unfamiliar living people in this desolate place.

"Um, don't be afraid, I'm a friend of your teacher."

Luo Chen knocked gently on the door. He originally wanted to say that he was not a bad person, but he felt that it was strange to say such a thing, as if he was trying to hide something.

"You, who are you?"

The little girl spoke timidly, wary of the stranger who had suddenly appeared.

"Didn't I just say? I'm a friend of your teacher Natasha."

Luo Chen blurred through the door and looked down at the little girl who was blocking the door with her body.

"what!"

The little girl was frightened and ran to the left, grabbing an empty can from the ground and throwing it at Luo Chen's face.

"Little one, there's no need to be so scared."

Looking at the little girl who was cowering in the corner in fear, Luo Chen realized that he might have gone too far. He took a few steps back and apologized to her: "I'm sorry, it was my fault. Let me introduce myself. My name is Luo Chen, and I'm a colleague of your teacher Natasha."

"Are you the teacher's colleague?"

Seeing Luo Chen's earnest expression, the little girl moved forward a little, and after confirming that Luo Chen would not hurt her, she took a few more steps forward.

"Hello, Brother Luo Chen, my name is Kong."

"Xiao Kong, there's no need to be so wary."

Seeing Kong's tense expression, Luo Chen had no choice but to take out his terminal and call Raven again.

"what happened again?"

"Do me a favor, your little guy doesn't believe me."

As Luo Chen spoke, he handed the terminal to Kong, then walked to the wall and leaned against it, gesturing for Kong to take the call.

Kong held the terminal to his ear, and his eyes lit up when he heard Raven's voice. He glanced at Luo Chen, who was looking at him, from time to time.

"Okay, I understand. Please be careful, teacher."

Kong handed the terminal back to Luo Chen, bowing slightly and saying, "I'm sorry, Brother Luo Chen, I was just too scared, so..."

"No need to apologize, your reaction is normal. After all, if I were in your shoes, I might have reacted more strongly to suddenly seeing a stranger in this godforsaken place."

Luo Chen crouched down, looked at Kong tenderly, and said softly, "Now, Kong, can you trust me to come?"

"Ah."

Kong nodded vigorously and saw several heads peeking out from the side, waving at them.

"Lyle, come here for a second."

A little boy with brown-gray hair walked over first, stood behind Kong, and stared intently at Luo Chen.

"Kong, who is this?"

"He is a friend of the teacher."

Kong pulled Lyle to his side and introduced Luo Chen to him and the other children.

"Hello, my name is Lyle."

"My name is Luo Chen, it's nice to meet you."

After introducing the children present, Kong asked Luo Chen, "Brother Luo Chen, what brings you here?"

"Me? I'm here to see a few people."

Luo Chen scanned the interior of the small house and saw a refrigerator placed to the side. Curious, he walked over to it.

Opening the refrigerator door, I found a variety of ingredients inside, and quite a lot of them.

"Did your teacher bring all of these?"

Luo Chen closed the refrigerator door. It seemed that Raven cared a lot about these children. Although the house was small, it was fully equipped with all the necessary living supplies.

"Yes, the teacher comes over every month to bring us things we need."

Kong explained that the teacher had told her that he would be back in a few days, and that she should listen to Luo Chen's words during these days.

"Your teacher is really good to you."

Luo Chen glanced at the time and realized it was almost lunchtime. He asked the children what they wanted to eat and then went to cook.

"Anything is fine, as long as it's edible."

Sora's answer made Luo Chen chuckle. He suddenly remembered Sora's complaints about Raven's cooking skills in the story. To be honest, he wanted to see just how bad Raven's cooking could be.

"Wait here, I'll go cook."

Luo Chen walked into the kitchen and saw Kong follow him in.

"Xiao Kong, you don't need to help me, I can manage on my own."

"I'd better come and help Brother Luo Chen."

Kong came partly to help out, and partly to see how good Luo Chen's cooking skills were, hoping he wouldn't end up like Raven.

If Luo Chen knew what she was thinking, he would definitely laugh out loud. Back in St. Freya, she was the headmaster's personal chef. Whenever there was a holiday or a party, she would drag him over to cook. Luo Chen got used to it and sometimes when he entered their dormitory, he would subconsciously head towards the kitchen.

"Okay, then you can help me out."

After a long time...

"This is...it's so delicious!"

Kong took a bite of Luo Chen's curry rice and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, then shoveled another bite into his mouth.

"It's not necessary."

Looking at the other children's reactions, Luo Chen wondered just how bad Raven's cooking must be for Kong and the others to react like this.

"Sigh, the teacher is good in every way, except that her cooking is a bit terrible. Her cooking... is really not likable."

As they were talking, Kong finished her rice, and Luo Chen took her bowl and added another bowl.

"Thank you, Brother Luo Chen. By the way, Brother Luo Chen, why are you such a good cook?"

"Isn't it because I'm always cooking for this whole family?"

Luo Chen recalled that whether he was in Changkong, Saint Freya, or even at the headquarters of Destiny, he would be called to cook from time to time, and his cooking skills had long been superb.

"A large family, does Brother Luo Chen have many family members?"

Kong expressed her doubts. Listening to Luo Chen's words, she assumed that the situation Luo Chen described must be the same as theirs.

"I guess so. To me, they all are."

Looking at the children at the dinner table, Luo Chen thought of Mei and the others. According to the information he obtained from Raven, the Hyperion had left the Sky and seemed to be heading this way.

"I wonder how Mei and the others are doing?"

Because Luo Chen only asked for general information, he didn't know the whole story. He didn't even know that Xuan Yu had appeared in the sky. If he had known, he would have rushed over immediately.

Chapter 187 Arrival in the Sky

"Lady Himeko, we are about to arrive in Changkong City."

"I understand. Keep going, then find a tall building to park."

"clear."

After giving the orders, Himeko used the communication device to call Mei and the others to the bridge. Before landing in the sky, she had a few things to tell them.

A few minutes later, the bridge doors opened, with Wendy leading the way, followed by Mei and Kiana side by side.

"Mei, what do you think Himeko-sensei wants to see us about?"

Kiana's voice was much lower than before, and she seemed less lively and more demure.

Xuan Yu left after confirming that Kiana was alright. Kiana wanted to go with her, but Xuan Yu refused, saying that Kiana's injuries hadn't healed yet, and told her not to be stubborn and to talk to Mei and the others more.

"It's probably to remind us of the precautions to take when traveling to Changkong City."

Mei looked out the window at the nearby Nagasora City, especially the ME Corporation building in the central part of the city, her expression slightly complicated.

"You're all here. You should know why I called you here."

Himeko's gaze swept over the three of them, lingering a little longer on Kiana before she cleared her throat.

"You all heard what Senior Xuanyu said. Our main purpose in coming here is to find Luo Chen and bring him back. If necessary, we can beat him up and bring him back."

"Um, Himeko-sensei, I have a question."

Wendy raised her hand and asked timidly, "Do we really think we can beat Luo Chen?"

Everyone present remained silent; Wendy's question had hit the nail on the head. They were unaware of Luo Chen's situation, so their answers were largely based on his strength during his fight with Sirin.

"This is just a last resort, and it's highly unlikely we'll use it."

After Himeko finished explaining the precautions, the Hyperion arrived above the docking point.

"It's time, Dr. Tesla. Is your device ready?"

"Already prepared."
