It seems that Polka Kakamu didn't go all out, at least not by killing anyone from the company.

Jiang Jiu broke through Polka Kakamunong's shielding device and exchanged a glance with Black Tower.

Black Tower crossed his arms and said calmly, "It looks like he was detained by Polka Kakamu as soon as he entered Fanghu's star field."

"They deliberately locked him up to give Fang Hu the illusion that there were no living people there."

Jiang Jiu clicked his tongue: "Looks like they deliberately lured me here."

Jiang Jiu and Hei Ta stood in front of the three survey ships, looking at the people lying haphazardly inside, and remained silent for two seconds.

"He's unconscious," Black Tower concluded after a quick glance. "He's not dead, just unconscious."

Jiang Jiu walked into one of the boats, squatted down to check on the person closest to him. His breathing was steady, his pulse was normal, and his pupils were still responding... he just couldn't wake up.

"Polka Kakamugan?"

"Most likely."

Black Tower stood at the hatch with his arms crossed, somewhat too lazy to care.

Jiang Jiu stood up and looked around.

Three survey ships, dozens of people, all unconscious...

Polka didn't kill them, but she didn't wake them up either.

...They're just really bored.

"Black Tower, do you have a way to get it up and running for them?"

Hei Ta glanced at Jiang Jiu: "...I am the Envoy of Wisdom, not the Envoy of Abundance. If you want to get treatment, go see a doctor."

Jiang Jiu thought for a moment.

“Abundance, I actually have some connections.”

Black Tower tilted his head: "...Don't tell me you've also embarked on the path of abundance?"

No, not at all.

Jiang Jiu took out a branch, which was full of vitality.

"This is, um... never mind, it's not important anyway, it's a gift from the God of Abundance."

"Why not contact the company headquarters directly?"

“Troublesome.” Jiang Jiu shook his head. “They’re taking too long to get here. I still have some questions to ask.”

......

A dozen minutes later, the people on the three survey ships woke up one after another.

Most people looked bewildered, not knowing what had happened. Some tried to stand up, but their legs gave way and they sat back down.

In stark contrast, some people start checking their equipment the moment they open their eyes, displaying an absurdly high level of professionalism...

Jiang Jiu stood at the cabin door, watching the chaotic scene unfold. He glanced around and then his gaze fell on one person.

That person was different from the others; he woke up the earliest and recovered the fastest.

While others were still confused, he had already stood up and was straightening his collar.

He had light blond hair, was impeccably dressed, and wore a nonchalant smile...

Hmm? It's someone I know, though it's more of a one-sided affair.

Alluvial Gold, Strategic Investment Department, one of the ten people at Stoneheart.

Sand Gold straightened his collar, looked up, and met Jiang Jiu's gaze.

He paused for a moment, then his smile deepened.

“Manager Shi Jin,” he walked over and bowed slightly, “I didn’t expect it would be you who came to rescue us personally.”

Jiang Jiu looked at him without saying a word.

Sand Gold didn't seem to care and continued, "I thought I was going to die this time. As soon as I entered that star field, my mind went blank, and then I knew nothing more. When I woke up, I saw you standing here..."

He paused, and a hint of genuine gratitude appeared in his smile.

"Thank you."

Jiang Jiu sighed: "Do you know who did it?"

Sand Gold thought for a moment, then shook his head.

"I don't know," he said sincerely, "but someone who could catch me off guard would at least be a Commander-level figure, and..."

He pointed to his head.

"That feeling was strange. It wasn't an attack, nor was it suppression. It was like... a sudden loss of consciousness."

Jiang Jiu nodded.

"It's Polka Kakamu."

Sand Gold's smile froze for a moment.

"Genius Club #4? Silent Lord?"

"Ah."

Sand Gold was silent for two seconds, then sighed: "Alright, losing to that guy isn't shameful."

Jiang Jiu asked a few more questions, but was somewhat disappointed when he saw that the other party couldn't answer them.

"Forget it, let's go back. The situation on the Immortal Ship... is probably completely over."

Sand Gold: "Will you come back with us?"

"No."

Jiang Jiu shook his head and turned to walk towards the Black Tower.

The moment they got close, a halo appeared beneath their feet, and they vanished right before Sand Gold's eyes.

Sand Gold paused for two seconds, then sighed helplessly.

I have to say... he truly is a genius, just unconventional?

Resigned, he contacted the company: "I'm Sand Gold, we..."

......

Jiang Jiu was naturally taken back to the Black Tower Space Station by Black Tower.

It wasn't that Jiang Jiu didn't want to take him back to the Clock Tower, but he felt that there might be other problems with the breeding of remains.

Just to be on the safe side, I didn't go back.

"Now, should everyone be here?"

“Whether they are all in order or not is not important anymore,” Jiang Jiu shook his head. “The people who would use them to cause trouble have been dealt with most of the time. The rest is to get rid of this menace.”

"What happens after you deal with it?"

"Of course, it's about dealing with the foehn winds."

Hei Ta looked at him, thought for a moment, and asked, "Do you need my help?"

Jiang Jiu shook his head without thinking: "There's no need to deal with the remains. Just find an uninhabited planet and swallow them with the void. You'll just be watching anyway."

Black Tower scoffed, "You dislike me?"

"How could I dare?" Jiang Jiu laughed. "I just didn't want you to watch such a boring process."

Hei Ta didn't say anything more, but tiptoed and gently pecked Jiang Jiu's lips, whispering, "Come back soon."

"Ah."

......

Jiang Jiu chose a desolate planet located on the edge of the Milky Way.

There were no signs of life, and it didn't even have a name.

He entered the planet's interior, looked at the dilapidated scene inside, and raised an eyebrow.

He had initially thought it was a planet where no life had ever existed, but now it seemed more like it had suffered some great catastrophe that led to the extinction of life.

However, none of this had anything to do with him.

He casually buried the reproductive remains somewhere, then snapped his fingers, his fingertips swirling with ethereal power, just before he was about to wipe out the entire planet along with the reproductive remains.

...Something stirred in his senses.

He turned his head and saw a short child wearing a cloak standing not far away, looking at him curiously.

"Who...who are you?"

Jiang Jiu: "...?"

Wasn't there no sign of life?

......

(New month, hoping for a little gift, meow~)

Chapter 204 The Last Guardian

Jiang Jiu paused for two seconds.

Because in his exploration, this planet indeed showed no signs of life.

There were no signs of life or fluctuations in his destiny, which is why he chose this place.

...But how did a child suddenly appear in this place?

Could it be that there are some kind of mechanisms or devices in this kind of place that block perception?

The child watched him quietly from a distance of more than ten meters.

Her greyish-white cloak almost dragged on the ground, clearly ill-fitting, yet the hem swayed slightly on this windless planet.

"So, who are you? I don't think I've ever seen you before."
