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

"Then... let's die together!!!"

The butcher's roar came through the encrypted phone's speaker, sharp as fingernails scraping against glass.

His large, jewel-encrusted hand, like a rotten piece of lard that had fallen from the ceiling, slammed down hard on the blood-red self-destruct button!

"boom!"

That wasn't the sound of an explosion.

That was the dull thud of the butcher's hand hitting the button's protective cover.

The protective cover shattered instantly.

His hand pressed down.

Inside the vault, all the lights went out instantly, leaving only blinding blood-red alarm lights that began to spin wildly, illuminating the butcher's face, twisted with madness, making him look like a demon from hell.

A cold, emotionless electronic synthesized voice echoed throughout the underground space.

The final agreement has been activated.

[Antimatter core overloaded...]

In the center of the phone screen, a bright red number began to jump relentlessly.

【10】

【9】

Su Wan's face turned deathly pale instantly. She subconsciously took a step back, covered her mouth tightly with her hand, and let out a suppressed sob.

"He...he really pressed it..."

Liu Hu's body tensed instantly, his muscles bulging like granite. He pulled Su Wan behind him, his eyes fixed on the small screen, as if waiting for the end of the world to come.

Genesis Building has seven underground floors.

Antimatter bomb.

If this thing explodes, not only will Genesis Tower be wiped off the map in an instant, but probably half of Donghai City's commercial district will be wiped off the map in an instant!

【8】

【7】

A deathly silence fell over the living room.

Only the electronic countdown sound and the sound of Li Haotian scraping the bucket with his spoon as he scooped ice cream alternated.

"Click."

Li Haotian scooped out another large spoonful, which still had a small piece of chocolate crust on it.

He didn't even open his eyes.

【6】

【5】

"Haotian! Think of something!" Su Wan's voice was choked with sobs; she had completely broken down.

This was beyond her comprehension; this wasn't a business war at all, it was a terrorist attack!

Li Haotian put the spoonful of ice cream into his mouth and mumbled something indistinctly.

"Don't make noise, it'll affect the taste."

【4】

【3】

Deep within his consciousness lay darkness.

From the perspective of the Alien worker bee, quietly lurking in a cigar box, the entire world is composed of data and energy flows.

The butcher's madness.

The Blood Scythe Squad's advance.

And at the very center of the vault, there's the antimatter core that's rapidly shrinking, its energy readings about to break through the critical point.

Everything was clearly visible.

Li Haotian's will was as precise as a scalpel, issuing the last and simplest instruction.

Worker bees are overeating.

【2】

Inside the cigar box, the tiny black insect disguised as tobacco scraps began to tremble silently.

It didn't grow bigger, nor did it become ferocious.

Instead, it is contracting.

Its body seemed to be erased bit by bit from this dimension by an invisible eraser.

Ultimately, it condensed into a point smaller than the tip of a needle, so small that it could not be observed by any instrument.

A pure, "nothing" point.

A miniature, irrational, all-consuming black hole.

【1】

"call out--"

That "point" traversed the entire vault space in an instant, at a speed that surpassed the speed of light and the speed of thought.

It passed through mountains of cash, through burning wine cellars, and through the butcher's obese body.

At the very moment the countdown reached zero.

It precisely adhered to the antimatter core that was about to explode.

【0】

Time seemed to stand still at that moment.

Su Wan and Liu Hu closed their eyes almost simultaneously, awaiting the shockwave that was powerful enough to destroy everything.

one second.

two seconds.

three seconds.

……

Nothing happened.

There was no earth-shattering noise.

There was no earthquake that shook the entire villa.

The world was silent.

Su Wan trembled as she slowly opened her eyes.

Liu Hu looked at her with a puzzled expression.

Then, their eyes simultaneously fell on the phone.

No explosion sound came from the phone's speaker.

Only a very muffled, extremely suppressed sound came through—

"Buzz—"

The sound didn't resemble an explosion; it was more like...

Like a giant who had been starving for three days and three nights, finally enjoying a feast, and then letting out a long, satisfied burp.

The sound lasted for less than a second before disappearing.

The phone screen flickered a few times due to the violent energy fluctuations, turning into a snowy screen.

When the image becomes clear again.

Su Wan and Liu Hu witnessed a scene they would never forget in their lives.

Beneath the Genesis Building, the chaotic, burning vault filled with money and sin, vanished.

Along with the butcher inside, the mountains of cash, the Blood Scythe squad fighting fiercely, and those sturdy alloy walls.

Everything disappeared.

Instead, there is a perfectly spherical "hole" with a diameter of over fifty meters.

The edge of that hole was as smooth as a mirror.

The cut-open reinforced concrete had a perfectly smooth edge, as if a god had precisely scooped a piece off a giant cream cake with a scalding hot spoon.

The light shone in, and then never came out again.

There, it was a pure, all-consuming darkness that represented "nothingness".

Su Wan's mouth opened unconsciously, wide enough to fit an egg.

Her brain completely shut down.

Liu Hu felt a chill run from the soles of his feet straight to the top of his head.

He looked at the perfect spherical cavity and felt that his pride in his strength and combat skills was as insignificant as a speck of dust in the face of the being that created this "miracle".

"What...what is this..." Su Wan's voice seemed to be forced out from her throat.

"Click."

Li Haotian used a spoon to scrape the last bit of melted ice cream out of the Häagen-Dazs bucket and put it in his mouth.

He sensed it.

The moment that spherical cavity formed, the connection between the [Alien • Worker Bee] was completely severed.

Energy overload; its existence has been completely erased.

But in its last moments before disappearing, it still managed to send back its last, and only, sensory signal through the "hive mind."

It is neither pain nor destruction.

It's more like... feeling like you're stuffed.

Li Haotian smacked his lips in satisfaction and casually tossed the empty ice cream bucket into the trash can.

He opened his eyes, looked at the black sphere on his phone screen that represented absolute nothingness, and his face showed an expression of admiration for a work of art.

He snapped his fingers at Su Wan and Liu Hu, who were already petrified.

"Look."

"This is what you call environmentally friendly demolition."

He stood up, stretched, and his bones cracked and popped.

"No noise, no dust, no construction waste."

"Most importantly, we'll even scatter your client's ashes cleanly, all in one go."

"Five-star review, no problem, right?"

Su Wan and Liu Hu have completely lost their ability to speak.

Li Haotian ignored them and picked up the encrypted phone again, tapping the screen lightly with his finger.

The dark chat room interface that communicated with "Scorpion" reappeared.

The dark red scorpion emblem remained there quietly, as if waiting for something.

Li Haotian grinned and slowly typed out a line of text using his account, "Mr. Li, a kind-hearted citizen."

[Mr. Li, a concerned citizen]: Are you satisfied with the trial pack?

Message sent.

Without waiting for a reply, he immediately typed a second line.

[Mr. Li, a concerned citizen]: Next, let's talk about the price of the membership package.
