"How strange, I can't sense any genetic modifications in you, which means you are a normal human. But why are you able to use some peculiar abilities?"
The woman scrutinized Shasha with a curious expression. "Would you mind sharing this secret with me?"
Shasha couldn't help but chuckle at her words. "You really are odd. Asking someone such a secretive question on our first meeting and then asking if it's convenient for me. What if it's not convenient for me?"
"Not convenient, huh?" The woman pretended to ponder for a moment before smiling brightly. "Then I guess I'll just have to pry your mouth open."
As soon as she finished speaking, the atmosphere suddenly chilled, and the air began to solidify with the intensity of her presence.
A wave of heat surged forward, and energy started to swirl around them. Faced with this situation, Shasha focused his thoughts.
'Boom!'
With a muffled sound, the surrounding energy shattered instantly. The woman took a surprised step back. "You actually broke my Stellar Energy?!"
"Everything that exists is composed of material structures. Energy is made up of molecules and atoms that collide to produce energy. What I do is shatter the molecules and atoms within that energy."
A slight smirk appeared on Shasha's lips as he stepped closer to the woman, locking eyes with her captivating yet astonished gaze. "Still want to know my secret?"
How many years had it been? This was the first time a man had gotten so close to her—just a few centimeters apart, where they could feel each other's breath. And how long had it been since she felt suppressed by someone?
Her cheeks flushed slightly as she turned her head away, whispering, "I'm just curious about your identity. I've checked; your background is unknown. You claim to be a Timewalker, but I know of every existence in any star system—except for you."
"The universe is vast; even an eternity may not be enough to explore it all. Your universe is just one dimension, while I exist in another dimension that has no intersection with yours. It was merely an accident that brought me here."
Shasha sighed lightly. "Honestly, I didn't want to get involved in these matters, but there are reasons compelling me to do so."
Just as the woman was about to ask another question out of curiosity, Shasha turned to leave. She hesitated but finally called out to him, "Hey, aren't you curious about my other purpose for coming to find you?"
"You're probably just trying to recruit me into your organization, right? I'm used to my freedom; I'll join when I feel like it."
Watching Shasha wave goodbye as he walked away from her, the woman muttered angrily under her breath, "What an arrogant man! No one has ever dared to speak to me like this before!"
Shasha walked a few dozen steps, her ears twitching lightly, a playful smile spreading across her face.
So this is what Rosa's Sunlight is like? Despite being over ten thousand years old, she still looked like a girl. However, in her civilization, it seemed that at this age, she was merely an infant on Earth, so a little childishness was to be expected.
During this encounter, aside from realizing that the invasion was imminent, Shasha also felt an urgent need to grow stronger.
This universe could be called the Gene Universe; no civilization could escape the cultivation of genes. Those so-called gods were perhaps nothing more than beings created from genes. It would not be an exaggeration to call them super gene life forms.
Thus, immortality seemed almost trivial.
But was her power sufficient? At least it would be enough to deal with those aliens.
A lot had happened recently, and all Shasha wanted to do was get a good night's sleep, replenishing her energy while solidifying and honing her abilities.
As Shasha fell asleep, she was unaware that Xiong Bing Lian had already begun to assemble. Those possessing the Divine River Gene scattered around Giant Gorge City and Heishi were gradually being discovered.
Ducao's capable assistant Ajie was using various means—appealing to emotions, reasoning, or even coercion—to gather them together by any means necessary.
When this group of individuals was finally assembled, Rosa came knocking.
Knock knock knock.
The sound of knocking interrupted Shasha, who was engrossed in a game. With a snap of her fingers amidst her busy schedule, she opened the door.
Rosa walked in and saw Shasha sitting at her computer playing games. She couldn't help but frown. Just as she was about to speak, Shasha interrupted her, "I'll be with you in a moment; I'm almost done with this round."
Rosa swallowed back the sarcastic remark she had intended to make, nearly suffering an internal injury. Rolling her eyes, she sat down on the sofa and began surveying the room's decor.
Although Shasha looked like a typical gamer, the room was surprisingly clean—clearly someone who tidied up regularly. The kitchen had pots and pans that weren't just for show; it was evident he cooked for himself. There was no smell of smoke, indicating he didn't smoke at home. There were no signs of frequent drinking; clearly, he didn't drink alcohol often. No dirty socks, unwashed clothes, scattered trash, or other messy items—everything resembled a neat office space. If this guy wasn't a neat freak, then he certainly paid great attention to his living environment.
After taking all this in, Rosa couldn't help but feel self-deprecating. What am I doing? This isn't a blind date; why am I thinking about these things?
After finishing a game, Shasha stretched lazily and walked over to the refrigerator. "What do you want to drink?" she asked.
Rosa instinctively replied, "Coffee would be great."
Shasha tossed a can of Starbucks iced coffee to Rosa and grabbed a bottle of mineral water for herself. After taking a couple of sips, she noticed the slight dark circles under Rosa's eyes and the not-so-obvious bags beneath them. She couldn't help but say, "Staying up late isn't a good habit. As soldiers, you need to maintain good health."
Rosa paused for a moment before responding lightly, "If we don't stay up late, then the mission will fail. We're always racing against time to save lives. If losing a bit of sleep means saving one more person, I'd rather not sleep at all."
It was the standard military mindset, prioritizing the safety of the people above all else. It wasn't that this was wrong, but if everything was sacrificed, what would be left for oneself? Even if this was their reason for living.
Not wanting to argue with her, Shasha immediately shifted the topic. "Let's talk about why you're here."
Upon hearing Shasha get down to business, Rosa straightened her posture and said earnestly, "I'm here because I hope you can join us in defending Earth!"
