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

The alarm blared sharply and repeatedly echoed in the hall, while the blood-red light cast a deathly pale glow on Su Wan's face.

"Boss! The enemy has broken through three layers of the spatial maze! They're approaching the main gate!"

Su Wan's voice trembled slightly, almost uncontrollably.

"Warning! Threat level...cannot be assessed!"

The cold, synthesized electronic voice rang out again, making the air seem to freeze.

Li Haotian stood up from the sofa, his face expressionless. He walked to the monitor screen and looked at the old man in black robes standing at the door.

The old man stood there quietly, seemingly out of place in the high-tech environment around him.

"Interesting," Li Haotian commented. "Send a few worker bees out to say hello to him."

Su Wan immediately started operating on her terminal.

"The order has been given, and three reconnaissance worker bees have been deployed."

Beneath the lawn in the villa garden, three inconspicuous camouflage covers silently slid open, and three jet-black, metallic beetles, like magnified metal, shot into the sky with a sharp whooshing sound, heading straight for the old man outside the gate.

The old man raised his head, his cloudy eyes revealing no emotion.

He simply took out three pieces of yellow paper with red runes drawn on them from his wide sleeves and casually tossed them forward.

"go."

The three pieces of yellow paper seemed to have eyes, drawing three strange arcs in the air, arriving first and accurately sticking to the three worker bees flying at high speed.

Shila-

It was like a red-hot iron being used to heat an ice cube, producing a puff of blue smoke.

The three killing machines, representing cutting-edge biotechnology, froze in mid-air. After flashing wildly a few times, all the indicator lights went out, and then they fell straight down from the sky like three pieces of scrap metal.

"Boss, the worker bees' biological signals... have completely disappeared!"

Su Wan looked at the disconnected connection on the terminal and felt that her understanding of the world had been shaken.

"Their energy core was directly annihilated by an unknown energy field."

Li Haotian touched his chin.

"Let's go out and meet this guest."

As he spoke, he walked towards the inner room of the living room. A moment later, Xiao Hei, a black cat the size of a palm, nimbly jumped onto his shoulder and lazily yawned.

Li Haotian pushed open the heavy, carved door of the villa; the afternoon sun was a bit too bright.

He squinted at the old man in black robes standing outside the door.

"Old man, you've come to the wrong house. We don't engage in feudal superstitious activities here."

The old man's usually calm eyes suddenly contracted when he saw the little black dog on Li Haotian's shoulder.

Xiao Hei also sensed something. Its lazy posture vanished instantly, its black fur stood on end, and it made a low, threatening growl in its throat. Its silver vertical pupils locked onto the old man.

"I am an old man, the 'gravekeeper'."

The old man ignored Li Haotian's teasing, his voice hoarse, as if two pieces of sandpaper were rubbing together.

"I've come to pay my respects to the 'Alien Overlord' for this order."

He held up the tablet in his hand, on which was the order sent to the "Pre-Qin Imperial Tombs".

"Oh, a customer has come to the door." Li Haotian nodded. "Then you should have contacted my customer service instead of just barging in."

The tomb keeper spoke slowly: "This is a matter of great importance. I must personally verify whether you are capable of taking on this job."

After saying that, he lifted his foot to walk inside.

"Sorry, this is private property." Li Haotian's voice turned cold.

The tomb keeper did not stop, as if he had not heard Li Haotian's words, and stepped into the area of ​​the villa gate.

Li Haotian looked at him, his eyes devoid of any warmth.

"I've given you a chance."

A thought suddenly occurred to him.

The [Guild Territory Order] permissions are activated instantly.

hum-

An invisible, extremely heavy force descended from the sky.

The air within the entire area of ​​Genting Villa No. 1 seemed to have turned into viscous mercury at that moment.

The gravedigger's foot, which had just stepped inside, seemed to be crushed by an invisible mountain. The special alloy floor beneath his feet groaned under the weight and cracked inch by inch.

"Um?"

The gravedigger let out a muffled groan, his body suddenly sank downwards, and his knees bent uncontrollably.

For the first time, a look of horror appeared on his wrinkled old face.

"Gravity... has increased more than tenfold!"

A faint golden light surged within him, attempting to resist the sudden and terrifying pressure.

Golden light flowed across his body, making his hunched figure straighten up a little, but the foot that had stepped inside the door could not be lifted even an inch.

Li Haotian stood on the steps, looking down at him. The little black dog on his shoulder had already tidied its bristling fur, tilted its head, and looked at the old man struggling to resist with a theatrical gaze.

"Here, you have to follow my rules."

Li Haotian's voice was very calm.

"Now, can we properly discuss business?"

The tomb keeper remained silent for a full ten seconds, and the golden light on his body slowly faded.

He raised his head, looked deeply at Li Haotian, and then slowly cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards him.

"It was I who was being presumptuous."

As soon as he finished speaking, the terrifying gravity that was enough to crush a tank vanished without a trace.

The tomb keeper withdrew the foot that had stepped inside the door and stood outside, his posture noticeably more respectful.

"Can you tell me now? What exactly is going on with the order for the imperial tombs?" Li Haotian asked.

The gravedigger sighed, his expression turning serious.

"The version update of 'God's Game' has not only affected you players, but has also shaken some... ancient seals in the real world."

"Beneath the imperial tombs of the pre-Qin emperors lies something that should not exist in this world," the tomb keeper said slowly. "Recently, due to the weakening of the boundary barrier, its power has begun to leak out, and that leaking 'death energy' is eroding the seal."

He glanced in Li Haotian's direction.

"I need an extremely fierce and ruthless power that can devour everything to 'eat' that death energy and re-stabilize the seal."

"You guys played GG very well." The gravedigger pointed to his tablet. "'Your personal beast, loyal guardian of wealth.' That's the kind of beast I need."

Li Haotian understood.

It turns out there's a bug under the imperial tomb, and this old NPC guarding the tomb wants to pay me, the "antivirus software," to come and fix it.

"So it's a cleaning job." Li Haotian nodded.

He wasn't interested in any ancient seals, but he was very interested in the name "Pre-Qin Imperial Tombs".

That's a legendary S-class world dungeon; any one item hidden inside would be enough to make him rich.

"Okay, business is business, we can talk about it," Li Haotian said. "But when my people go on business trips, the travel expenses, lost wages, and compensation for emotional distress... are not cheap."

"Money is not a problem," the gravedigger replied readily.

"Very good." Li Haotian smiled. "Then, it's a pleasure to cooperate. My assistant will coordinate the specific time and place with you."

The gravedigger nodded and turned to leave.

He took two steps, then suddenly stopped, turned around, and his gaze passed over Li Haotian, landing on the black cat.

"Alien Overlord"

His voice was more serious than ever before.

"Be careful of it."

Li Haotian raised an eyebrow.

The gravedigger looked at the black cat licking its paws with a complicated expression.

"It is a child of the void, born with the ability to devour laws."

"But it... is also a calamity that devours the world."

After saying that, the tomb keeper's figure vanished from the spot like a wisp of smoke.

Li Haotian looked down and glanced at Xiao Hei, who was also looking at him from his shoulder.

The little black cat meowed at him, as if asking, "What's for dinner?"

Calamity?

Li Haotian scoffed.

Ironically, he himself is a walking disaster.
