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

The air in the living room seemed to groan under its own weight.

That's not a metaphor.

Centered on Li Haotian, dark cracks appeared out of thin air, as if someone had smashed an invisible mirror with a hammer.

"Boss!"

Su Wan let out a scream, and the Persian carpet beneath her feet suddenly rippled like water.

The entire villa was shaking.

Parts from the crystal chandelier crashed down, smashing into powder on the floor.

"Snap!"

The [Heart of the Void] in Li Haotian's hand shone brightly.

In his other hand, the dark gold "thermos" cup had its surface energy circuits flashing wildly and humming.

When two forces from different dimensions meet in the real world, they produce a violent rejection reaction.

"Hold on tight."

Li Haotian spoke, his voice not loud, but unusually calm.

No sooner had he finished speaking than an invisible force suddenly overturned everything in the living room.

The million-dollar leather sofa, along with Liu Hu sitting on it, flew up and crashed into the ceiling.

"what!"

Su Wan felt a lightness in her body, and was lifted off the ground by this force.

She watched helplessly as she drifted towards those grotesque spatial rifts, her mind going completely blank.

A hand suddenly grabbed her wrist.

It's Li Haotian.

His feet seemed rooted to the spot, and despite the surrounding gravity being erratic and objects flying everywhere, his body remained completely still.

"The renovation is making a lot of noise."

He still had the mood to joke.

But Su Wan couldn't smile.

She saw that the scene behind Li Haotian was no longer the walls of the villa.

It was a deep, distorted, and ever-changing starry sky.

Villas are being stripped away from the real world.

[WARNING: The current spatial structure is extremely unstable, and a dimensional collapse is imminent.]

[System prompt: Please complete the high-dimensional energy encapsulation within 3 minutes.]

A bright red system warning flashed frantically in front of Li Haotian's eyes.

"Tsk, what a hassle."

Li Haotian frowned, and with his other hand, he grabbed the "thermos cup" and slammed it down on the Heart of the Void.

He didn't use any pliers.

It was done by hand, in the most direct and brutal way, pressing that crystal representing the power of mythology into the container.

"Buzz—!"

The moment the two forces clashed, a blinding light engulfed everything.

Su Wan could see nothing, only feeling the hand gripping her, like a red-hot iron, radiating terrifying heat.

The whole world was spinning, and all I could hear was a deafening roar.

……

Outside the Cloud Top Villa area, on the road at the foot of the mountain.

Inside an inconspicuous black sedan, several D.H.I.E.L.D. field agents were monitoring the situation with binoculars.

"Everything is normal in the target area."

"Wait... what's that?"

The team member driving the car pointed to the mountaintop.

At the location of Villa No. 1 in the Cloud Top, the air began to distort like the road surface on a summer afternoon.

The outline of the villa became blurred and illusory in the field of vision, like a mirage.

"Quickly! Report to the command center!"

"Report! The target is... is disappearing!"

……

Dragon Shield, Command Center.

Qin Yue had just drunk a cup of strong coffee, trying to shake off the fatigue from staying up all night.

"Report! Strong spatial fluctuations have occurred in the Yunding Mountain area!"

"On the satellite map, the coordinates of Genting Villa No. 1... data lost! It's become an undetectable black spot!"

Qin Yue almost spat out her coffee.

She rushed to the big screen, stared at the glaring black hole on the map, and felt her nerves tighten once again.

"Connect with the meteorological department!"

"Report to Team Leader Qin! A lone cumulonimbus cloud has appeared out of nowhere over the target area, and radar indicates extremely high-intensity thunderstorm activity within it!"

"But...but the satellite can't capture any images below the clouds!"

Qin Yue stared intently at the screen, her hand gripping the newly bought tactical pen so tightly it made a cracking sound.

She took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled.

"...What kind of renovations is he doing now?"

……

The living room of the villa.

The light dissipated.

The world fell silent.

Su Wan felt herself fall back to the ground, her legs went weak, and she almost collapsed to the ground.

She opened her eyes and found herself still standing in the living room.

The sofa and Liu Hu, which had been thrown over, fell back to their original positions. Liu Hu was dazed and confused, groaning while clutching his head.

Everything seems to have returned to normal.

Only the mess on the ground proved that what had just happened was not an illusion.

Li Haotian released her hand.

He held the dark gold thermos in one hand, and with the other hand, he was slowly and methodically tightening the lid.

As the last gap was closed, the eerie blue light flowing across the container's surface completely subsided.

It was as if it were sealed away.

[Packaging complete.]

[An isolated space has been detected; physical isolation protocol activated.]

Li Haotian walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window.

Outside the window, a light drizzle was falling.

But then a strange thing happened.

The raindrops stopped abruptly about half a meter away from the windowpane.

Each glistening droplet of water hangs motionless in mid-air, as if frozen in place.

"Boss, this..."

Su Wan followed, speechless as she looked at the bizarre scene outside the window that defied the laws of physics.

"don’t worry."

Li Haotian tapped on the window, and the glass made a dull thud.

"High-end decoration, with its own protective barrier, preventing dust, theft, and peeping."

He spoke of it casually.

Su Wan knew that from this moment on, this villa no longer belonged to any corner of the earth.

It became an isolated island floating in the cracks of dimensions.

Li Haotian turned around and took out a small wooden plaque and a marker from a drawer in the entryway.

He wrote several large characters on the wooden sign in a flamboyant style.

Then he walked to the front gate of the villa and hung the wooden sign on the doorknob.

Su Wan leaned over and took a look.

The wooden sign reads: "Business is temporarily closed for home maintenance. Please leave your packages at the door, except for food delivery drivers."

Below, a funny smiley face was drawn.

After doing all this, Li Haotian clapped his hands, turned around and went back to the living room, where he plopped down on the sofa.

"Alright, all irrelevant people have been cleared out."

He picked up the now-ordinary thermos and placed it on the coffee table, a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

"Now, let's get down to business."

Su Wan and Liu Hu didn't dare to breathe, watching him nervously.

Li Haotian gently placed his palm on the top of the thermos.

next second.

The originally plain container suddenly lit up with a purple light inside.

The point of light, like a heart, began to beat rhythmically.

"Thump..."

"Thump..."

Deep, powerful pulses emanated from the container, seemingly traversing endless starry skies and time.

Su Wan felt her soul trembling with this pulsation.

She saw a blurry, indescribably huge phantom behind Li Haotian, which flashed by in an instant.

It was a ferocious yet magnificent monster queen, existing only in the depths of nightmares.
