I would rather betray the gods

Every day brings anticipation, and every day brings information I can't help but check again and again.

In the vibrant summer, the pomelo smelled the birdsong and fragrant flowers from the bottom of its heart.

It wasn't until Dai Tianhe called to inform her that tomorrow was the day the [White Galaxy] would hold its global conference in Antarctica that Youzi realized she had forgotten about something important.

After hanging up the phone, the first thing Yuzu thought of was to leave a message for Fang Yuan, telling her that she would be going on a business trip for about a week and wouldn't be able to watch her live stream during that time.

On the other end of the phone, Fang Yuan was increasingly worried about him, this naive guy, and was now holding her phone, hoping for a message from him.

So before Youzi could even put down her phone, Fang Yuan replied to her message, which surprised and delighted Youzi.

Fang Yuan told him to keep up the good work and wait for him to come back to watch her live stream. She wouldn't let him watch it tonight because he needed to rest up for his business trip.

A little tyrant full of care!

Yuzu felt a warm current flowing through her heart, and an unconscious, silly smile appeared on her face.

But how could he agree to such a domineering request? He immediately typed: No way, I have to see it, every extra glance counts.

After sending the message, Youzi put her phone on the table, reluctant to leave the screen, just to see how the other party would reply.

However, he waited and waited but Fang Yuan didn't reply to his messages.

Are you angry, or did you not see the message?

Yuzu leaned over the corner of the table, staring intently at her phone until it automatically locked.

Finally, evening arrived, and as soon as Yuzu saw Fang Yuan start her live stream, she immediately clicked on it.

Fang Yuan was cleaning her yoga mat in front of the camera, preparing for her live stream. When she saw Youzi enter the live stream room, her eyes widened immediately, and she said softly and gently, "Didn't I tell you to rest early? Get out, turn left when you go out!"

That's what she said, but her expression betrayed her true feelings; she was incredibly happy because Yuzu was the first one to arrive in the live stream...

Somewhere in the vast continent of Antarctica.

The pomelo teleported there instantly according to the map coordinates.

The world was covered in white snow and ice; there wasn't even a table for a meeting, let alone a house.

However, a group of penguins were huddled together a few dozen meters away.

This was no problem for Yuzu. Anyone who has seen science fiction movies knows that Earthlings like to build secret bases underground and leave a hidden door. There happened to be a protruding boulder in front of him, and he deduced that the mechanism was there, so he went over.

One side of the boulder is sheltered from the wind and is very smooth.

Yuzu placed her hand on it and pressed gently, one spot at a time, hoping to find the switch to the hidden door. Sometimes she would even tap it against her ear a few times.

"Mr. Chang, what are you doing?"

A voice suddenly came from behind, very weak, as if it could be swallowed up by the howling wind at any moment.

Yuzu almost jumped up when she looked back, only to see half of her face floating in the air.

After the initial shock subsided, I looked again and breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be Dai Tianhe, who was wearing a white camouflage coat and was basically blending into the snow and ice.

"This is Antarctica, there are no polar bears here. Aren't you afraid of getting lost dressed like that?"

Yuzu said angrily.

"There's nothing we can do about headquarters' regulations; after all, the [Planetary Project] is still in a highly classified phase. Come on, I'll take you to headquarters."

Dai Tianhe pointed into the distance while putting away his binoculars, seemingly using them to discover the pomelo.

"Where to? Isn't it underground?"

The pomelo, shaking, drew a map with coordinates, only to find that it had been foolishly clinging to the boulder.

"Heh, how could it be underground? Glaciers move every day, they're not stable. If you don't believe me, look at the headquarters of the [White Galaxy], it's already shifted that much."

Dai Tianhe pointed into the distance again.

Yuzu squinted and saw something a few hundred meters ahead. After walking a while, she realized it was a large cargo ship covered in ice and snow.

Stepping inside the cargo ship revealed a hidden world, complete with secret rooms and winding corridors, much like the movie scenes Yuzu remembered.

"Wait a minute, how did you get here?" Yuzu suddenly realized a big problem as she walked.

*Sizzle!*

As soon as Yuzu finished speaking, a door opened from bottom to top, and then Aresen walked out from inside.

"The portal." Dai Tianhe pointed to the room Aresson had just left.

Yuzu had seen and experienced nothing in the Pisces Palace, but that did not diminish his interest.

He eagerly peeked into the room, looking up and down, and exclaimed, "Alien technology?!"

"Ability of a superhuman, fixed-point teleportation." With that, Dai Tianhe opened the door to the opposite room.

Inside the door sat a group of burly Western men with superpowers, continuously channeling stellar energy into a special device.

When the burly men saw that there were people watching, they all raised their hands to greet them.

"Ha, hello," Yuzu replied, somewhat surprised.

Compared to the outside, Yuzu clearly felt that the atmosphere inside the conference hall was much more oppressive and somber after entering.

In the huge room, there was a long conference table, with people of all skin colors sitting on both sides.

The dim lighting, the swirling smoke, everyone's tense face, not a single friendly eye in sight.

"Why does it smell so strongly of gunpowder?" Yuzu asked Dai Tianhe quietly as she sat down at the table.

"Everyone wants to be the leader, and no one is willing to submit to anyone else." Dai Tianhe said as he handed Youzi a document.

The pomelo was opened, revealing a list of candidates, the lowest of whom were at least at the fourth level of the Star Realm. "Wasn't this mentioned before?"

"Previously, it was coordinated and controlled by Old M, but this country has such a bad reputation that even top-notch hidden experts from all over the world are unwilling to join the White Galaxy because of this. Therefore, the White Galaxy needs to break away and operate independently."

After saying that, Dai Tianhe left his seat and went to the front desk.

He led this meeting and it was generally well-received for two reasons.

Firstly, he is a person without superpowers and would not use public office for private gain.

Secondly, and most importantly, he comes from the Land of Rabbits.

While speaking on stage, Yuzu, bored out of her mind, rested her chin on her hand and glanced at Aresen beside her, "Why don't you run for office?"

Today, Aresen was taciturn, his gaze never leaving the documents on the table.

Only after Yuzu asked him that did he pull his attention away from the two-dimensional world on the desktop.

He first looked at Youzi with a surprised expression, then took off his glasses to wipe the dust off the lenses, and said, as if answering a question but also talking to himself, "I'm just a scholar of supernatural abilities, not a superhuman."

Yuzu shrugged and smiled, then said nothing more...

The meeting had been going on for more than six hours. Apart from a few candidates with weaker abilities who withdrew voluntarily, the competition among the others became even more intense.

Seeing this, the exhausted Dai Tianhe had no choice but to end the meeting and let everyone go back to the reception room to rest, and continue tomorrow.

As they left the conference room, Yuzu noticed that Aresen and Dai Tianhe both had sullen faces, so she invited them to go up to the cargo ship deck for some fresh air.

They thought the howling wind and snow would help them relax, but unexpectedly, as soon as they stepped onto the deck, Aresen and Dai Tianhe started arguing.

Aresen accused Dai Tianhe of letting personal feelings interfere in the meeting. When those people were eliminated, Dai Tianhe clearly sided with those who were not eliminated. Guild leaders should not be chosen based on ability, but on whether they are competent for the position. After all, strong people are constantly emerging, but there can only be one leader.

Dai Tianhe disagreed. In his view, the White Galaxy was different from others. The superhumans were like a wolf pack. The leader of the wolf pack didn't have to be the strongest, but his ability had to be enough to intimidate the entire tribe. Otherwise, a guild without prestige would find it difficult to do anything.

And so, the two argued from small to large, each holding their own opinion, neither willing to give in.

"Do you two want some barbecue? It'll be fresh!"

Seeing this, Yuzu mustered all her strength and roared, but if she didn't shout louder, her voice would be blown away by the wind and snow.

Aresen and Dai Tianhe both looked at him, taken aback by this seemingly unrelated topic...

Half an hour later, the three of them found a sheltered spot and built a fire.

On the fire, the delicious seal meat sizzled and dripped with oil.
