The sorcerer's voice was filled with barely suppressed excitement.

"The Titan prototype, a mythical world boss! That's its energy core on its chest!"

Everyone in the Kyushu squad took a deep breath.

The ultimate goal of this dungeon run is right in front of us.

Only Li Haotian didn't look at the giant who was soaking in the jar.

His eyes were fixed only on the crystal embedded in the giant's chest.

[WARNING! Ultra-high purity space-based energy source detected!]

[Item identified: Heart of the Void (Mythical Evolution Material)!]

[Matching with the host's gene tree branch 'Voidwalker' can trigger the second stage of mythical evolution.]

The red text on the system panel burned like a flame on Li Haotian's retina.

He could feel that the alien genes within him were yearning for that crystal.

Once he obtains it, his Alien Queen will no longer be a simple space jumper, but a true space ruler.

"We'll take this."

Indra's voice interrupted Li Haotian's thoughts.

His tone was calm, yet it carried an uncompromising decisiveness.

"You name your reward; we can discuss equipment, materials, survival points, and even real-world items."

The rest of the Kyushu squad silently dispersed, forming a loose encirclement.

The archer Hawkeye's fingers were already on the bowstring.

The assassin's shadowy figure appeared and disappeared in the shadows.

Their target wasn't the BOSS, but Li Haotian.

Li Haotian smiled.

He slowly turned his head and looked at Indra.

"Boss, what you're saying is pointless."

He stretched out his finger and pointed it towards the Heart of Emptiness.

"I don't need anything else in this instance."

"Take all the experience, equipment, and materials; I won't take a single penny."

"This is the only one I'm determined to have."

"Even if Jesus came, he couldn't be kept here, I said."

The atmosphere suddenly froze.

The eyes beneath Indra's helmet were unseen, but the pressure emanating from them was undeniable.

The shield warrior Rock behind him took a step forward, and the massive tower shield made a dull sound.

"Are you sure?" Indra's voice turned cold.

"I'm a man of integrity in business, honest and fair to everyone," Li Haotian said, spreading his hands. "I helped you deal with the exploding spiders and blew open the door for you. By all accounts, this is what I deserve."

He glanced at Hawkeye, who was already drawing his bow to its fullest extent.

"Besides, your team has a good lineup, but your thinking is a bit rigid."

"Without me, you'd still be playing hide-and-seek with that biting door."

"Technology as equity, do you understand?"

"Is it reasonable for me to demand my share of the profits?"

Hawkeye was so angry that his face turned red.

"You call that skill? Throwing stinky tofu and frying fish are hardly skills!"

"As long as it works." Li Haotian picked at his ear. "Black cat or white cat, as long as it catches mice, it's a good cat. What, are you guys in the official team discriminating against people with technical skills?"

The atmosphere between the two sides had reached the brink of drawing their swords against each other.

Just then.

"Boom—!"

A loud bang came from directly above the hall.

The entire underground city shook violently, and countless dust and metal fragments fell down.

Everyone instinctively looked up.

A huge hole was forcibly torn open in the dome of the hall by some force.

Several figures descended from the sky, landing heavily on the other side of the hall.

These people were wearing uniform dark red armor with cherry blossom patterns printed on it.

The man at the head of the group, holding a katana, swept his sinister gaze across the entire area.

His gaze first lingered on the Kyushu team, then finally settled on the Titan prototype in the central incubation tank, revealing a hint of greed.

He spoke arrogantly in broken Chinese.

"This place is under our control, the Orochi Guild!"

Everyone in the Kyushu squad frowned.

The sorcerer behind Indra whispered, "It's Orochi, a top guild from the Sakura Kingdom. How did they find this place?"

Li Haotian looked at the group of uninvited guests, and the tension on his face vanished instantly.

He turned to look at Indra and grinned.

"Boss, something dirty has arrived."

"Look at the mess this has made. We haven't even resolved our internal conflicts yet, and outsiders have already come knocking on our door."

"How about... we clear the area first, then divide the loot?"

Indra was silent for two seconds.

He slowly drew the long sword from his waist, its blade gleaming faintly.

"agree."

Upon receiving the reply, Li Haotian's smile widened even more.

He took two steps forward and shouted at the Orochi Guild members.

"Hey you guys, what are you doing everywhere?"

"Did you drink too much nuclear wastewater at home and get brain damage, coming here looking for an air purifier?"

Li Haotian felt that shouting it out wasn't enough, so he simply turned on the public chat.

A line of gold text appeared in everyone's chat box.

[Alien]: "@Orochi_Onimusha, bro, is your Emperor's toilet clogged? Should I send you some Wang Zhihe (a type of Chinese herbal medicine) to unclog it?"

The guild leader of the Orochi Guild, Onimusha, instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

"Baka!"

He roared and pointed his katana at Li Haotian.

"Kill them! Leave no one alive!"

The dozens of guild elites behind him immediately formed a battle formation, and the lights of various skills began to flash.

Li Haotian shook his head, his face full of sorrow and compassion.

"Look, they resort to violence when they can't win an argument; they have no sense of martial ethics whatsoever."

He looked at Indra again.

"Boss, see this? This is the typical villain's face."

"People like this need to be dealt with by righteous partners like us."

Hawkeye, standing behind Indra, twitched at the corner of his mouth.

He really wanted to know who the villain was.

Just when the two sides were on the verge of war and a major battle was about to break out.

From the Orochi Guild's group, a player dressed in hunting robes and looking like an Onmyoji stepped out.

He held a folding fan in his hand, muttered incantations, took out a talisman from his pocket, and threw it on the ground.

"Come forth, my shikigami! Orochi!"

The ground shook violently.

A massive magic circle unfolded on the ground, and blinding purple light shot into the sky.

As the light faded, a colossal creature appeared before them.

It was a huge monster with eight ferocious snake heads, each of which flicked a scarlet tongue and emitted a chilling roar.

A terrifying pressure instantly enveloped the entire hall.

The members of the Kyushu team all became serious.

"It's an A+ rank summon! Beware of its poison and petrifying gaze!" the diviner immediately warned loudly.

Looking at the imposing eight-headed serpent, Li Haotian was not nervous at all; instead, he laughed.

He stroked his chin, examining the large snake with great interest, like picking out a plump eel at a market.

He turned his head and spoke to the Kyushu team behind him in a tone that suggested he was enjoying the spectacle.

"Oh, playing a summoner build?"

"That's what you call showing off your skills before an expert, brothers."
