On the Eight Extremes Star, I awakened the twelve talismans.

"Filling our stomachs is the most important thing right now. We'll figure something out later, hehe."

McDonald finished the last drop of soup, patted his belly contentedly, called out to the owner for another bowl, and then turned to Hama with a big, carefree smile.

"I'm truly impressed by you, you've got a really big heart." Hama sighed heavily, then suggested:

"How about we try using some of yesterday's prize money to buy some information? I've heard there are quite a few underground information brokers on Mars, and they'll sell anything as long as you can afford it."

After Hama finished speaking, he shook his head and rejected the idea: "No, no, what if we get scammed? A million is a lot, but if we run into a swindler, not only will the money be gone, but we won't even be able to find the swindler."

The two are still struggling to figure out how to get into the Rainbow Sea, and so far they haven't found any reliable clues.

McDonald lowered his head and ate a couple of bites of noodles, then looked up as if to say something, but his mouth moved without making a sound, clearly he didn't have any good ideas.

The noodle shop door was pushed open, and the doorbell rang once.

Ye Han walked in, having overheard most of their conversation.

He roughly figured out what the two men needed regarding Rainbow Sea, the million-dollar reward, and the underground intelligence broker.

He walked straight to the McDonald's, sat down, and waved to the owner: "Boss, a bowl of signature beef noodles, please."

Hama seemed a bit wary. The noodle shop was so empty, with several tables vacant, yet this person had chosen to sit next to them. Something just didn't seem right.

Ye Han took the initiative to speak: "I overheard your conversation just now, and I know a clue about how to get to the Devil's Footprints."

Upon hearing this, McDonald's eyes lit up like two light bulbs: "I've been searching high and low, and here it is, right under my nose! What's your name, sir? Could you tell us?"

"We came from Earth specifically to Mars in search of information. We've searched most of the planet without finding any clues, but we never expected to run into them here!"

"What a coincidence! I'm also from Earth, my name is Ye Han. Since we're from the same hometown, I'll share this information with you for free, no charge." Ye Han said this with a very natural expression, as if he really just happened to be passing by.

"That's great! Brother Ye, can you tell us where we can find it?" McDonald was so excited that he put down his chopsticks, placed his hands on the table, leaned forward, and stared intently at Ye Han.

"By the way, my name is McDonald, and this is my friend Hama."

Hama sized up Ye Han. He had black hair, yellow skin, and facial features that were indeed very much in line with those of an Earthling.

His doubts lessened somewhat, but he wasn't completely convinced.

Hama asked, "You don't have any other hidden fees, do you? Let me make this clear: we may have some money, but we don't spend it recklessly."

"Free, not a penny." Ye Han glanced around mysteriously and gestured for the two to move closer.

McDonald and Hama both leaned forward unconsciously.

Under the table, Ye Han's hand had already silently pressed down on McDonald's wrist, absorbing the energy points.

The system panel popped up.

[Energy Points Gained: 22]

[Energy Points: 57]

After withdrawing his hand, Ye Han continued in his usual tone: "Three months later, Jupiter will host the Storm Famila, a brutal competitive tournament that many people will participate in."

"The winner of the competition will not only receive a large prize, but also a spaceship engine called the Heart of Jupiter."

McDonald scratched his head and asked in a low voice, "Ye Han, what is the Heart of Jupiter? What is it used for? And what does it have to do with going to the Rainbow Sea?"

"McDonald's, you've hit the nail on the head. The key is that only spaceships equipped with the Heart of Jupiter can safely traverse the Devil's Footprints. Without it, ordinary spaceships entering that star system will be sucked into the natural black holes along the way, without even reaching the door."

"The route to the Rainbow Sea is made up of many natural black holes, densely packed together. Without the special engine of the Heart of Jupiter, you can't even reach the threshold to get in."

Just then, the boss brought over the noodles, and the steaming hot noodles were placed in front of Ye Han.

Ye Han picked up the bowl and took a bite. The taste was indeed good. No wonder McDonald ate five or six bowls.

McDonald slammed his hand on the table excitedly: "That's great! Hama, when are we going to Jupiter? I remember Jupiter is near Mars, let's set off now!"

"Wait, wait, don't rush."

Hama pressed McDonald's shoulder and pushed him back into his chair: "Even if we're going, we should do some research first. A tournament like Storm Famila definitely has entry requirements and rules. If we rush in without even understanding the rules, we might not even qualify to participate."

"Okay! Let's look up the information first! Thank you, Ye Han." McDonald gave Ye Han a bright smile.

"It's okay, I'll be participating in Storm Famila in a while too." Ye Han put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth.

Upon hearing this, McDonald immediately extended an invitation: "Then Brother Ye, you can ride with us on our Hengxing! The Hengxing is a spaceship built by Hama, it's very powerful!"

Ye Han smiled and declined, "No need, I have my own spaceship. I've finished eating, I should go now. See you at the next competition."

He stood up, waved to the two of them, and the doorbell rang again as he opened the door.

McDonald waved at him from behind: "Alright! See you at the competition!"

The noodle shop fell silent again.

McDonald turned to Hama, his voice brimming with barely suppressed excitement: "Hama, look, we ran into a fellow countryman today, and he even did us a huge favor! Now that we've figured out the Heart of Jupiter, all that's left is the coordinates of the Devil's Footprint."

Hama leaned back in his chair: "When the storm Famila arrives, there will be many powerful figures gathered there. It won't be easy to take first place. Let's plan ahead."

After leaving the noodle shop, Ye Han walked along the street toward the location of the next red dot.

After passing through bustling commercial streets and several administrative buildings, we finally stopped in front of a building bearing the emblem of the Interstellar Alliance.

Using the Snake Talisman's invisibility ability, Ye Han walked in openly.

The red dot target was indeed, just as Ye Han had guessed, the famous Tang Wood.

He was in a high-level office, wearing a pink coat, sitting in a chair, fiddling with a folded umbrella.

Two uniformed soldiers stood ramrod straight in front of him, reporting on the situation.

One of the soldiers flipped open his notebook: "Commander Tang, that guy named McDonald has been under our surveillance and shows no signs of leaving Mars yet."

"How's the other matter going?"

"Reporting, sir, we only found the remnants of the Black Flag, Kalia, on Mars. The leader of the Pentagon Legion, Sardin, tracked them all the way to Mars but found no trace of them."

"Investigate further and report back."

"Yes, sir." The two soldiers saluted and left the office.
