Chapter 165 Subservience

The Gale Apostle followed the pioneer all the way to the core of Galewind Island. The pioneer stopped in front of a small building and said softly, "The governor is inside."

The Gale Apostle raised an eyebrow, looked at the old and simple building, and said after a long silence, "I don't like the stuffy environment indoors. I'll wait for him here."

This was a lie.

The real reason the Gale Apostle didn't want to enter the small building was because it sensed Han Han's aura inside, and it felt a little guilty and apprehensive from the bottom of its heart!

Because it didn't know what state Han Han was in, or what the relationship between her and Li Tianran really was.

It feared that if it got too close to Han Han, she might suddenly have a whim and forcibly read its memories, which would make all its efforts futile.

Therefore, it was deliberately avoiding direct contact with Han Han!

"..." The pioneer gave the Gale Apostle a strange look, and after a moment of silence, said, "Okay, then you can wait here!"

After saying this, the pioneer left.

The Gale Apostle stood outside the small building, quietly waiting for Li Tianran to appear.

About half an hour later, Li Tianran walked out of the small building, taking off his apron and wiping the water stains on his hands as he walked.

The Gale Apostle keenly smelled a faint scent of oil smoke on Li Tianran's body. It raised its eyebrows and asked in a deep voice, "I didn't expect you to do this kind of thing!"

"I'm taking care of my sister, it's normal." Li Tianran shrugged. "Which older brother doesn't cook?"

"Ha, haha..." The Gale Apostle sneered, a look of sarcasm on its face, pointing at Li Tianran's chest. "Taking care of your sister? Don't make me laugh... You're using these words to deceive yourself!"

"Actually, you know very well that you're using this method to curry favor with her, even to the point of lowering your status as a human leader to do the laundry and cooking that only servants would do!"

Listening to the Gale Apostle's sarcastic words, Li Tianran was not angry. Instead, he thought about it seriously for a moment and nodded, saying, "If you think so, there's nothing wrong with that."

"I am currying favor with her, so what?"

"At least I have the qualifications to do so. Now, who in the entire Blue Star dares to launch a war against Galewind Island?"

Li Tianran looked at the Gale Apostle with a smile. "Do you have the qualifications?"

The Gale Apostle's face darkened.

Its previous sarcasm, in addition to its inherent contempt, was actually more of a... envy, jealousy, and hatred!

It hated why Li Tianran was so lucky.

Hated that the other party could get the protection of the Earth Apostle by such a simple method!

Hated that its Miracle Building had been destroyed, and it had to "cooperate" with the person who destroyed it!

Hated that Li Tianran easily obtained what it wanted!

This sense of gap was what made it emotional and sarcastic.

"Recognize your position." Li Tianran walked over and said very bluntly, "You are no longer a king with a Miracle Building, but a traitor exiled from your home. You are cooperating with me and seeking my protection, so don't even think about being equal to me."

"I don't want to hear you talk to me in this tone again in the future..."

Li Tianran and the Gale Apostle looked at each other.

He was not as tall as the Gale Apostle, and his life energy was far less powerful, but after a long time, it was the Gale Apostle who first shifted its gaze elsewhere.

Compared to the Gale Apostle, Li Tianran was weak.

So weak that it could kill him with a single finger.

But in another sense, Li Tianran was very strong.

So strong that with a single command, the entire race, including the Gale Apostle, would be completely wiped off Blue Star.

Behind Li Tianran's not-so-tall figure stood the most powerful apostle on Blue Star, the entire Galewind Island, the Kunlun Dreadnought, the Sky Citadel, and tens of thousands of pioneer warriors!

In the face of these, even the Gale Apostle had to lower its proud head!

"I have specially opened up an area on Galewind Island for your race to live in. It's right there... absolutely safe and absolutely comfortable." Li Tianran did not continue to dwell on this topic, but pointed in a direction. "Your followers are all doing well there. I have sent people to deliver enough resources for survival."

"Now, should we talk about the remaining core crystals?"

Li Tianran took a deep breath. "Where are they?"

"That woman..." the Gale Apostle reminded.

"Yuan Wen and Tang Su have already moved over, but tell your followers to be honest. Don't wander around their yard if you have nothing to do. You know, I'm very sensitive about my attitude towards them. If there's any misunderstanding because of something, I might kill people," Li Tianran said expressionlessly.

"..." The Gale Apostle grinned, revealing a bright smile. "I want them to be safe even more than you do."

...

The Kunlun Dreadnought slowly sailed out of Galewind Island.

Li Tianran and the Gale Apostle stood in the control cabin, looking at the distant sea.

"The place where the core crystals are hidden is inside a mountain outside the human defense line. No one knows the exact location except me," the Gale Apostle said softly.

"Seriously, you really surprised me... In such a short period of time, everything you have can be compared to an ancient civilization. How did you do it?"

Faced with the Gale Apostle's question, Li Tianran ignored it.

"Hehe, yes, who would casually reveal their secrets?" The Gale Apostle laughed. It didn't care about Li Tianran's neglect, and continued, "But I want to remind you, your civilization level has already entered level 0.9. Compared to the ancient civilization that is about to fully recover, what you need to guard against is... the Great Destruction!"

"Civilizations above level 0.9 cannot escape the fate of the Great Destruction. That is a truly irresistible disaster!"

Li Tianran raised his eyebrows. He was very interested in this topic.

He had previously seen some information about the Great Destruction in the Sky Apostle's memories, but that information was not complete, only some fragments of memories.

He only knew that this "Great Destruction" was a disaster that even the ancient civilizations at their peak could not withstand. Powerful beings like the Earth Apostle and the Triangular Tower race needed to use various methods to avoid it!

And the condition for the arrival of this Great Destruction was that it would only happen when a civilization reached level 0.9 or above.

After Galewind Island was upgraded to a level 4 shelter and possessed a planetary engine and the Kunlun Dreadnought, its civilization level had reached the standard for the arrival of the Great Destruction.

Li Tianran also wanted to learn as much as possible about this disaster in order to prepare for the future!
