Grandpa Lu didn't bother with him at all, and simply used his mental power to tie him up, then looked at the secretary next to him.

"Do you see a guy named Lu Yunting here?"

The secretary glanced at his superior officer, then at Grandpa Lu's kind and smiling face, and decisively shook his head. "No, it's nothing. I didn't see anything. It's just me and Commander Cole here."

"You traitor!"

Faced with Cole's murderous expression, the secretary was also helpless. The situation was beyond his control, what could he do? What a wrong it would be if he were killed to silence him.

The command ship sailed slowly, and Grandpa Lu estimated the distance.

"Okay, stop here."

Gu Chen was completely confused, but his glasses revealed the hidden anger of Grandpa Lu.

Suddenly, a shrill voice came from somewhere, unlike the pirates who were just toying with Cole.

This time, the dark mass almost swallowed everyone whole.

"Gu Chen, get up, I'll do it."

Glasses and Gu Chen watched as Grandpa Lu's hand speed was incredibly fast, comparable to their leader's. However, while they could sense their leader's spiritual power, Grandpa Lu had already returned to simplicity and could no longer discern anything.

The man with glasses looked on, but then noticed something strange. "Marshal, shouldn't we kill them all?"

The weapon that Grandpa Lu has chosen now, however, leaves a way to keep the high-level insect beast alive.

"No rush."

"Come on, you take charge, I'm going out for a bit."

As he spoke, he piloted his bright red mech, moving nimbly among the insect beasts, dodging the range of the glasses with a flick of his wrist, and hunting down a large number of them.

As Gu Chen watched, his eyes lit up with admiration.

"When will I be able to do that?"

"Maybe in the next life."

Gu Chen: ! !

"You're willing to talk to me now."

The man with glasses gave him a look that said, "Idiot."

When Grandpa Lu returned, there seemed to be something hidden in his sleeve, but he couldn't see it clearly with his glasses.

Cole, however, remained as quiet as a chicken, watching Grandpa Lu from the corner.

"I am indeed inferior to you. Why did Heaven create both Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang?"

Gu Chen, standing to the side, curled his lip and said, "She really knows how to pat herself on the back."

She's playing the victim now, but just now she was incredibly arrogant.

"Grandpa, let's deal with these insect beasts and go find the boss to cook for us."

He intends to eliminate the enemy at its root.

He glanced at Cole and said, "Okay, let's go."

...

Hearing the noise, Lu Yulan turned around from beside the roses. After the heavy snow, except for that cluster of blue roses, the rest had all withered. It just so happened that they were dormant and had no offensive power. She could prune the branches and make them bloom more profusely next year.

"Hey boss, we've come to visit and brought you a gift."

Gu Chen rubbed his big head and walked over with a smile. He had become quite familiar with Lu Yulan now and knew that Lu Yulan was easy to talk to.

Lu Yulan looked up at the sky. Hmm... it was time to eat.

This child has gone astray.

The man next to him, wearing a simple, all-black casual outfit, looked both cool and edgy, and was extremely polite.

"Hello, sir. I am Qiu Bai. This is a gift we brought for our visit."

The basket contained small cucumbers, as well as well-preserved insects and beasts, and on top were specialties from the border star's outpost.

Lu Yulan looked at the red and green stones on it and asked, "Is this tourmaline, or what?"

"It's tourmaline. You can keep it to make beads as a way of thanking me for taking care of Gu Chen."

This fool doesn't even understand basic social etiquette.

Lu Yulan liked it quite a bit, but she couldn't accept something for nothing.

"No need, I have it at home, and I'm not much older than you, so there's no need for formalities."
