Chapter 1 The Beginning

Taking out the small oxygen tank he had prepared earlier and holding it in his mouth, Li Chenzhou began to swim underwater. Although he knew that Grey Bear should be attracting the attention of others, he still had to be careful.

If he was seen by someone on the ship, it would be extremely embarrassing, and it would also make them suspicious of him, which would be a real problem!

"Boss! I remember... aren't you Easterners supposed to meditate during seclusion? Why are you lying in that big box that looks like a coffin? We Western vampires do that when we slumber!"

As soon as everyone had gathered, before Grey Bear could speak, Mike started yelling. When he saw the long box when entering the cabin earlier, Mike thought it looked like a coffin, but he was afraid of getting beaten, so he didn't dare to say it. Now that Li Chenzhou was in seclusion, he could finally say what was on his mind.

"That's right! Because my boss suddenly had some inspiration after arriving in the West, so he came up with this method of seclusion!"

Grey Bear didn't bother to explain and simply went along with Mike's question. Then he waved his hand:

"Alright! We don't need to study how the boss is in seclusion now, let's just wait for him to come out! What I'm going to arrange now are the things we're each responsible for while the boss is away!"

Then, Grey Bear explained in detail the areas everyone needed to be responsible for. Actually, this had already been arranged before, he was just repeating it, without any changes, because Li Chenzhou didn't care about anything even when he was on the ship, it was the same with or without him.

Grey Bear's main goal now was to buy time so that Li Chenzhou could return to the island smoothly without being discovered by others, so he spoke slowly.

And the people below were confused. It seemed like there was no difference from before? Was it necessary to be so formal, even having a meeting?

However, including Mike, no one said anything. New officials like to make a show of authority, and anyone who spoke up at this time would probably be made an example of, and no one would ask for trouble!

It took Grey Bear more than twenty minutes to finally stop. After so long, even a corpse should have floated to the island, right? So he waved his hand:

"Meeting adjourned!"

"Boom!"

Everyone scattered, Mike muttering under his breath:

"This guy is power-hungry, why didn't I see it before? God bless, I hope it doesn't happen every day like this, or I'll go crazy. Oh right, they don't believe in God, then Buddha bless!"

At this time, Li Chenzhou had already landed on the shore. He looked at the warship that was still barely visible and breathed a sigh of relief. He completely buried the anchor of the landing craft he had left behind in the sand before returning to the cave.

"Are you ready?"

Seeing Li Chenzhou return, Li Yingning didn't seem surprised, but asked calmly.

"Yes!"

Li Chenzhou nodded and asked Li Yingning:

"Instructor, since that place is a ranch for Devourers, there must be other intelligent life forms. What should my attitude towards them be?"

"That's for you to decide!"

Li Yingning said:

"However, I suggest you try the Controller's method, uniting other races to fight against the Devourers. They may not have the courage to confront the Devourers head-on, but you can let them act as your eyes and ears to grasp the Devourers' movements!"

"Okay! I understand!"

Li Chenzhou nodded, then took a deep look at Li Yingning before turning and walking towards the space channel, finally disappearing into that distorted space!

"Sigh!"

After Li Chenzhou's figure disappeared, Li Yingning sighed, and then his figure gradually became blurred until it disappeared...

This was a dark world, with dense dark clouds covering the sky, making the sky very low, and the air was filled with that familiar stench. Yes, this was definitely another apocalyptic world.

Li Chenzhou appeared in the center of a city intersection. The road was full of dilapidated and rusty vehicles, and all kinds of garbage were flying wildly in the wind, as if holding a carnival.

The surrounding buildings were also dilapidated. Although they could not be called ruins, the blood stains that were covered everywhere, even the thick dust could not cover the black blood stains, and the broken window lattices, were all declaring that the city had been abandoned.

However, what shocked Li Chenzhou the most were the shops on both sides of the street. The signs on the shops had various words, and Li Chenzhou recognized all of them.

"The instructor made a mistake, right? This... is clearly still on my planet, just changed to another city!"

Li Chenzhou murmured, feeling a little happy in his heart, because he had not arrived on another planet, but had returned to his own country.

Maybe he returned to Qing City earlier than Grey Bear and the others. He really wanted to see the expressions on their faces when they saw him welcoming them at the pier, it would be very interesting!

"Buzz~~~!"

At this moment, Li Chenzhou suddenly heard a somewhat harsh sound. He immediately rushed to the side of the road and hid in a shop, secretly looking out.

Six or seven people ran past on the left side of the road. They looked flustered and terrified, constantly looking back. Li Chenzhou also looked in the direction they were looking and found that there was a small plane behind them.

That's right, the plane was not big, maybe similar to the ones used by farmers in the American West to spray pesticides, but this plane had no wings, and the whole thing was a cone shape, of course, a very flat cone.

And the sound that Li Chenzhou heard was exactly the sound made by this plane, and as the plane got closer and closer, the leader of those people shouted loudly:

"Disperse!!!"

In an instant, these people immediately dispersed to the left and right, and the person who issued the order continued to run wildly along the road, with a girl of about twenty tightly chasing him.

"Xiao Mei, run! Go to the alley!"

The person in front shouted loudly when he saw someone following him.

"No! Brother! I'm not leaving!!!"

Xiao Mei shouted stubbornly, while continuing to chase the person in front.

"Damn it!"

The person gritted his teeth, looked back at the plane chasing them, and suddenly stopped, then turned around and pounced on the girl!

Who knew that the girl's reaction was also quite fast, and she also stopped, then turned around and ran back!

"Whoosh!"

During the delay of the two, the plane in the air had arrived here. It swooped down and swept over the heads of the two, and at the same time, a trumpet-shaped white light that was thin at the top and thick at the bottom shot out from the bottom of the plane, directly shining on the ground and moving forward with the plane.

Just as the light was about to touch the two, the girl suddenly stopped and kicked back. The person who chased after her was caught off guard and was kicked out directly. At this moment, the light swept over the girl, and in an instant, the girl disappeared without a trace...
