The whole nation: You're put to survive on a desolate planet, you'll be running an alien b

In the dining room of Genting Villa No. 1, the long dining table was filled to the brim.

Spicy fish head, squirrel-shaped mandarin fish, pickled cabbage fish slices, fish bone soup, and even several plates of crystal-clear sashimi.

The dishes were plentiful and the aroma was irresistible.

Bodyguard Liu Hu was restless, his forehead was covered in sweat, and his hand holding the chopsticks was trembling slightly.

His gaze was fixed on the plate of chopped chili fish head. The grotesque outline of the fish head made him involuntarily recall the terrifying monster created in his own sewer a few hours earlier, a monster with insect-like limbs and meat grinder teeth.

This thing... is it really edible?

Will a bunch of parts grow inside my stomach after I finish eating this?

"Old Liu, what are you standing there for? Pick up your chopsticks."

Li Haotian completely ignored his inner thoughts, picked up a large piece of the fattest fish face meat with the serving chopsticks, and put it into Liu Hu's bowl.

"This fish is a real delicacy."

Li Haotian also picked up a piece and ate it with relish.

"A body tempered by Grade B extraordinary energy is highly nourishing; ordinary people who consume it will prolong their lives."

Liu Hu looked at the fish in the bowl, his facial muscles twitched, and he forced a smile that looked more like a grimace.

"Boss, I... I have a sensitive stomach, so I usually eat lighter meals in the evening."

Su Wan gracefully skimmed the foam off the fish soup with a small spoon, her voice calm.

"Liu Hu, you're lucky the boss gave it to you."

Liu Hu was jolted awake. Looking at Li Haotian's ambiguous smile, he quickly steeled himself, picked up a piece of fish, stuffed it into his mouth, and swallowed it whole.

Ok?

It seems...to be quite delicious?

The meat is firm and chewy, with an indescribable sweetness.

Li Haotian ignored him and tasted another piece of sashimi, his eyes lighting up.

"Tsk, it melts in your mouth, and has a slightly sweet aftertaste. Su Wan, you should try it too. You can't find this quality even in Michelin-starred restaurants."

Su Wan ate in small bites, then put down her chopsticks and began to report on her work.

"Boss, there's quite a commotion outside."

"Although the matter of Tianhua Pharmaceutical Factory and Venus Hospital was forcibly suppressed by Dragon Shield, the internet is already in an uproar."

Li Haotian took out his phone while drinking fish porridge.

"How so?"

"Several threads with tens of thousands of replies have been created on the forum, all discussing the 'Three Heroes of the East China Sea'."

Su Wan's expression was somewhat strange.

"Some say it's an alien advance team landing on Earth, some say it's a cultivator failing to transcend tribulation, and others analyze that it's a secret organization carrying out an internal purge. There are all sorts of theories."

Li Haotian was delighted to hear this, and his fingers flew across the screen to find the most popular post.

He posted a comment below using his alternate account, "King of Fishing in the East China Sea".

"Thanks for the invitation. I'm currently on Mars, just disembarked from my spaceship. I have a conflict of interest, so I'll remain anonymous."

Click send.

He watched with satisfaction as his reply was instantly drowned out by countless "666" and "The poster has gone mad again," keeping his accomplishment and fame hidden.

Liu Hu, who was standing to the side, was once again shocked by this scene.

The mastermind behind the storm that stirred up the entire city and kept countless people up all night is now eating porridge while acting as a keyboard warrior online.

Just then, Li Haotian's phone vibrated.

A text message popped up.

He tapped it, glanced at it, and then turned the phone screen towards Su Wan.

"Look, Captain Qin cares about me a lot. He even sent me a text message to remind me to be careful of telecom fraud."

On the screen was a mass-sent public service announcement about fraud prevention sent from the official Dragon Shield account, with the message being entirely about "not believing in fake online transactions and illegal fundraising."

Su Wan understood at a glance.

"She's testing you, and also warning you to stop."

"I know."

Li Haotian smiled.

"I have to reply; I can't let their good intentions go to waste."

He scrolled through his collection of emojis and found a GIF of a Shiba Inu wearing a police uniform and hat, looking very serious, with a caption below it.

"Received, I'll download the national anti-fraud app right away!"

Click send.

One can imagine that Qin Yue's expression on the other end of the phone must be quite interesting right now.

The whole fish feast ended in an eerie yet harmonious atmosphere.

Back in the living room, Li Haotian saw a hand gripper he used for exercising in the corner.

He picked it up casually and weighed it in his hand.

"This thing isn't good quality; it felt a bit loose last time."

As he spoke, he casually squeezed his hand tightly.

"Snap!"

With a crisp crack, the high-strength engineering plastic shell shattered, and the metal spring inside was twisted into a pretzel.

The numbers on the LCD screen jumped wildly, finally settling on the highest value of the hand grip strength tester's range, "300KG," before flashing twice and going completely black.

Liu Hu's eye twitched violently, and he subconsciously touched his neck.

If this were in someone's hands...

Li Haotian casually tossed a pile of fragments into the trash can, clapped his hands, and acted as if he had done something insignificant.

He turned to Su Wan.

"By the way, could you keep an eye on the recent market prices for military raw materials?"

"Especially osmium-iridium alloys, high-purity biological nutrient solutions, and ultra-precision laser etching machines, etc."

Su Wan immediately wrote it down.

"Is someone planning to buy in bulk?"

I guess so.

Li Haotian walked to the window and looked at the night view below the mountain.

"Just consider it as helping my 'top donor' stock up in advance."

After giving his instructions, he stretched, his previous lazy and nonchalant demeanor vanishing instantly, his eyes sharpening.

He turned and walked toward the room where the gaming pod was located.

"The real-world issues have been resolved."

"Let me log in and check. There's still a big business deal we haven't finished in the game."

Su Wan and Liu Hu stood respectfully in place, watching him enter the room.

Li Haotian lay down inside the top-of-the-line gaming pod, and the pod door slowly closed, isolating him from everything outside.

The familiar feeling of weightlessness came over him, and his consciousness was pulled into a torrent of data.

[Connecting to the God of War game...]

[Identity verification successful...]

Welcome back, SSS-level talent user, "Alien Overlord".

The pale blue light faded before his eyes, and the game's main interface unfolded.

A system notification popped up automatically.

[System notification: Your friend [Mythical Emperor] has been online for over 10 hours and 23 minutes.]

Li Haotian looked at the notification and smiled.

"This top guy on the leaderboard is getting impatient."
