"Your Highness, please calm down. We still do not know what kind of world this is. According to the 'Book of Ice Lancer,' this should be a Primitive world discovered tens of thousands of years ago."
"However, from the current situation, it seems that this Primitive world had already nurtured its own civilization long ago. But something must have happened afterward. Look around; there are cursed humans everywhere."
A man clad in silver armor, with brilliant golden hair, respectfully bowed as he explained to a beautiful woman in a blue and white long dress.
"But who are they? And what about that flying iron castle?"
Cecilia slightly furrowed her elegant brows, pausing her staff momentarily as she asked in confusion, "Those knights ride on alchemical puppets? But isn't alchemy something that only appeared later? I have seen illustrations of these in the Imperial Library. It was said that the crystallized wisdom disappeared millions of years ago. I never expected it to still exist here; it's truly incredible."
Her sweet voice carried a hint of nostalgia mixed with curiosity as she spoke gently.
Cecilia and her group of seven or eight looked curiously at the Bio Warriors riding the alchemical puppets, but at the same time, they were ready for battle at any moment.
"Listen up! No matter who you are, I command you to drop your weapons and surrender immediately. Otherwise, we will have the right to take any action!" A hovering war vehicle resembling a convertible sports car appeared behind Ye Yi, revealing a formidable energy beam cannon.
Ten hovering war vehicles formed a half-circle around them, each equipped with an energy beam cannon.
"Boldly, who are you to not kneel before His Highness?!"
"Alert!!!"
"Protect the princess!"
Two werewolves, an Elder Mage, and four knights in silver armor quickly surrounded Cecilia, who held a staff over two meters tall. Among them, one knight shouted sternly.
As soon as those words were spoken, the others immediately reacted.
They each took up combat stances, their movements exceptionally skilled, clearly the result of long-term training.
Although Ye Kai had overheard a bit of the conversation among this group in 'Hope', the only thing he could be certain of was that they came from another world and were people from the 'Empire' that had discovered this place thousands of years ago.
This was not something he guessed blindly; the language spoken by the woman resembled Chinese, but it also contained English, which he could understand thanks to divine translation.
"There are eight of them; that's not too bad. They don't seem particularly strong. If it comes down to it, I can just crush them with Hope..."
"But I wonder how they got here. If they have some special means to escape, that could be troublesome!"
Ye Kai furrowed his brow as he watched the conversation unfold on the screen, his mind racing with thoughts.
Soon, he pushed these thoughts aside because at that moment, Ye Yi had already engaged in a fight with one of the silver-haired werewolves.
"One-on-one?"
Ye Kai raised an eyebrow; he hadn't expected Ye Yi to challenge someone to a duel. This was indeed interesting.
"Lord God, we have detected an unknown energy barrier. We have lost contact with the Bio-Warrior Squad!"
"An unknown energy barrier?" Ye Kai's gaze sharpened as he issued an order: "Fire a Medium Energy Cannon. I want to see if this barrier can withstand it!"
Boom!!!
A blue beam, as thick as an arm, shot out from Hope, revealing a translucent Energy Barrier in the air, which then shattered with a loud crash, scattering into countless points of Spirit Light.
"Puff!!!"
Watching the elderly man standing beside the woman suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, Ye Kai sneered and said, "Inform them that if they don't surrender soon, I'll open fire."
“Mr. Alex, are you alright?”
Cecilia gasped, covering her mouth. “Stop! Why are you attacking us?”
“Eh?”
The language she used was unfamiliar to Ye Kai, though it bore some resemblance to English and Chinese. However, that wouldn't hinder his ability to communicate with them later.
Although there was a somewhat heated argument among the group, Ye Kai had no desire to listen. After all, they would have to explain everything honestly soon enough.
Five minutes later.
Cecilia and her companions stood anxiously inside the massive steel fortress. Everything here was so novel, seemingly even more terrifying than the Empire's Magic Energy Technology!
Mr. Alex was a renowned Mage Envoy, yet he could not withstand a single beam of light!
Ye Kai lounged in a wide chair, propping his chin on one hand, his eyes half-closed as he spoke lightly, “So, where do you come from?”
In truth, as he looked at the stunning blonde beauty before him, dressed in a flowing blue and white gown with a blue crystal crown atop her head and a red gem adorning her chest, he felt a stirring within.
Her skin was incredibly smooth, radiating a glossy white sheen. Her sapphire-blue eyes were clean and clear, seemingly filled with endless innocence.
She resembled the Ocean Goddess in her true form—so beautiful it was intoxicating, so enchanting it felt almost sacrilegious to gaze upon her.
The others were also noteworthy; even after the two werewolves reverted to human form, they still towered over ordinary people. The old man was not much of a concern, but the saying “Old age brings cunning” rang true. Ye Kai felt a slight wariness towards him.
Only those four knights in silver-white armor, he didn't care at all, and had completely ignored them.
Damn it!
Ye Kai truly expressed that he hated this kind of person the most—someone who looked grand and righteous like the White-faced Man!
And to make matters worse, there were four of them appearing at once!
If they didn't behave, he could easily find a reason to drag all four of them away and hand them over to Erskine for experimentation. What a waste otherwise!
"May the Light of Ice Lancelot bless you."
Cecilia, being the princess of Ice Lancer, remained calm and composed even when facing Ye Kai. She placed her right hand on her left shoulder and slightly bowed her head, performing a rather peculiar gesture: "Cecilia Vancia requests your assistance on behalf of my subordinates, O strong one of this world."
"Light of the Star God envelops all!"
Ye Kai became somewhat interested. With a gentlemanly demeanor, he extended a hand as if to support her before saying, "As a visitor from another world, please specify what assistance you require."
He was intrigued; this woman resembled an ice lotus flower—noble and ethereal—but she was not just any ordinary being. On the contrary, she was quite clever.
She had directly requested help right from the start instead of giving him an opportunity to take action against her. This was truly fascinating.
