Anything Goes, Let's Go Out and See

For the next three days, Ye Chuan completely entered "lie flat" mode.

Slacking off to the max!

He slept until he woke up naturally every day, and once awake, he would just recharge himself.

Every day was pure enjoyment, basking in the comforts of home with everyone.

The affairs of the interstellar world seemed to have become a distant dream.

In the afternoon, Ye Chuan huddled on the sofa with a few others to play video games.

He controlled his character to nimbly dodge the boss's skills, jumping up and down to avoid obstacles, and completely broke the opponent's defenses.

"I can't do this anymore, I died again!" Seeing that she had lost another life, Lan Xiaoke and the others simply gave up, sprawling lazily on the sofa without bothering to move.

"I'm done playing!"

"Who was the one clamoring about being able to take me down?" Ye Chuan stretched lazily.

"It's not like I didn't take a few of your lives," Lan Xiaoke said, not forgetting to control her character to unleash a few skills to strangle Ye Chuan's character.

"..." Ye Chuan looked at Qianshuang beside him. "Qianshuang, what's the situation with the high tower on the island now?"

Bai Qianshuang didn't care about these things. At this moment, she was even too lazy to move. After slowly opening her beautiful eyes, her gaze fell on Lan Xiaoke.

"Xiaoke."

"It seems a few new floors have opened up," Lan Xiaoke tilted her head.

"If that's the case, you guys can go and clear it when you have time," Ye Chuan said. After all, the rift situation had stabilized now, and the only thing he couldn't figure out was that high tower.

"Okay~"

After playing a few rounds of Siguosha, Ye Chuan went over to find Ke Ning.

To facilitate Ke Ning's research, Ye Chuan had even equipped her with a laboratory, so she finally didn't have to hole up in her room to do research.

The heavy alloy door slid open automatically, and a faint smell of disinfectant and metal hit his face.

The lab was filled with all sorts of weird instruments and screens flashing with blue light.

Ke Ning was wearing a white lab coat and goggles, leaning over a huge instrument, while the Rubik's Cube V2 rotated its body next to her.

"Ke Ning." Ye Chuan walked up behind her.

"Oh?" Ke Ning looked up, her glasses sliding down to the tip of her nose. Her hair was a mess, and there were obvious dark circles under her eyes, clearly showing she had stayed up for several days again.

Seeing Ye Chuan, she finally reacted: "You're back? When did you get back?"

"I've been back for three days." Ye Chuan casually tossed the silver-white terminal onto the table.

"For you. It contains all the civilization records of the Federation. Can you help me see if there's anything valuable?"

"The Federation? Civilization records?" Ke Ning picked up the terminal and turned it on.

"Hmm... it feels like very low-level technology, only slightly better than the current era." Her fingers swiped rapidly across the screen, muttering to herself.

"There doesn't seem to be anything special."

Ye Chuan leaned against the table next to her. "Low-level? Alright... actually, I have something else to tell you."

"What is it?" Ke Ning asked without looking up.

"I traveled to an interstellar era world," Ye Chuan said slowly.

"There's a faction called the Federation there, spanning three galaxy clusters. They possess antimatter weapons, black hole ships, and purification technology specifically for dealing with Outer Gods."

"I also met a giant starry sky beast there that feeds on planets, and I took it in as a pet."

Hearing this, Ke Ning finally looked up.

"Interstellar era? You can actually travel to a future world?"

Ye Chuan nodded. "It's Star Calendar 3722 there. The Blue Source Planet is a border planet of the Federation, and it was invaded by Outer Gods."

"Star Calendar 3722?" Ke Ning put down the terminal in her hand. "I come from the New Century 2098, and I've never heard of your Federation—"

She looked at Ye Chuan. "Moreover, the Federation you mentioned doesn't even count as a higher civilization in my eyes."

"True higher star domains possess rule-based weapons and dimensional technology. Let alone black hole ships, even Star Destroyers are nothing more than children's toys."

Ye Chuan fell silent.

It seemed Ke Ning's world was even more advanced?

Or perhaps, they weren't in the same timeline?

"Forget it, if I can't figure it out, I won't think about it." Ye Chuan waved his hand. "It makes no difference to me anyway."

"True." Ke Ning nodded, picking up the terminal again.

"But the next time you go to that world, bring something back for me."

"What is it?"

"Originium." Ke Ning's eyes turned serious.

"A black ore containing pure energy. I need it for my research."

"Originium?" Ye Chuan frowned. "I haven't seen this kind of thing before... but no problem, I'll look for it next time I go."

"Thank you." Ke Ning smiled, a rare sight, and lowered her head to study the data in the terminal again.

"I also brought back some spaceships. If you're interested, you can go study them."

"Spaceships... okay, I will."

Ye Chuan didn't disturb her anymore, turning and walking out of the laboratory.

He came to a blank area of the apartment, planning to expand the laboratory area for Ke Ning.

After clicking on the renovation function, he created a small separate space in this area.

The floor space wasn't as large as the training room, but it was at least sufficient.

With a thought from Ye Chuan, the 10,000-meter-long black hole ship and three hundred frigates flew out of his spatial backpack and entered the small space one by one.

The massive warships lined up neatly in the space, like a forest of steel, exuding a cold metallic luster.

After setting up a portal for Ke Ning's laboratory, the basic framework was pretty much complete.

"Done." Ye Chuan clapped his hands, nodding in satisfaction.

He set permissions for this spatial domain so that only Ke Ning could enter, making it convenient for her to study these starships at any time.

Of course, whether she wanted to study them or not was Ke Ning's own business.

After a simple rest at home, it was almost time to go back to the New Century to see the actual situation.

Ye Chuan sat on the edge of the bed and directly took out his phone—

[New Century—Save Point (Apocalypse Galaxy): Booting up]

World Quest: Find the truth behind the destruction of the Immortal Realm

Secondary Quest: Complete one Pantheon Arena

The truth behind the destruction of the Immortal Realm?

"Where is the best place to start this quest? And what the hell is this Pantheon Arena?" As Ye Chuan muttered, he also glanced at the quests for the Tianxuan Continent and the Aether Continent.

There was nothing special left.

Focusing entirely on the New Century would do.

Besides, the map of the New Century was a bit large.

Whatever, New Century, boot up!

His vision turned into a vast expanse of white.

...

...

When he opened his eyes again, he saw the familiar ultra-high-tech sofa, and outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, the star trails were slowly rotating.

Not far away, Lin Xi was holding a phone, recording something.

Ye Chuan cracked his neck and stood up. "Lin Xi, come out for a walk with me."

"Oh, okay Mr. Ye, where to?"

"Let me think..." Ye Chuan pondered for a moment, but noticed the nano-cameras in the air. After casually crushing them all with his divine sense, he smiled.

"Anywhere is fine, let's just go take a look outside."
