"Oh dear, they've been abandoned."

Mingyue spoke harshly.

Director Li wanted to yell at her to shut up, but he was in so much pain that he lost his voice, and his entire mouth tasted of rust.

"However, how could they possibly escape?"

Director Li looked at Mingyue in horror, as if asking with his eyes, "What do you want to do?"

"Don't be nervous. Since you want power so much, then I'll give it to you."

In Director Li's shocked and terrified gaze, Mingyue's body turned into a skeleton. The terrifying power contained within was beyond what the thread connecting the two of them could withstand.

Bang--

A tremendous sound erupted from the laboratory, and Director Li's body exploded like a dazzling firework, while the power of the stars began to scatter wildly like headless flies.

One of the escaped medical lab coats sent a message to headquarters, but before it could be received, a scorching heatwave swept in, burning them to ashes.

When the Time and Space Bureau headquarters arrived, they were all stunned and stood frozen in place. "What on earth is Director Li doing?! He's gone mad!"

"Now is not the time to discuss Director Li. Everyone, intercept the power of the stars! We must not let it destroy the small world!"

"yes!"

They couldn't even get close to the power of the stars; they could only try their best to save the creatures of the small world, but their speed of rescue couldn't even keep up with the speed of destruction caused by the power of the stars.

One world after another vanished before their eyes. The director removed the epaulet from his shoulder and solemnly gave his last words, "As the director, I have the responsibility to sacrifice myself. From now on, all affairs of the Time and Space Bureau will be handled by Director Zuo."

"Chief!"

"Stop talking. From now on, you will be the director of the Time and Space Bureau headquarters."

Director Zuo gripped the badge tightly, his eyes brimming with tears, but could only watch helplessly as the director followed the power of the stars to alleviate the collapse of the surrounding small world.

"Everyone, listen up! Begin the rescue!"

"yes!"

Thousands of figures transformed into shooting stars and flew through various worlds. Director Zuo wiped away his tears and turned to devote himself to the follow-up work.

This ordeal lasted for half a month. Director Zuo barely slept a single day. He rubbed his temples with a headache and his voice was hoarse as if he had swallowed sand. "If you still can't control the power of the stars, you should choose another director. I will go and hold off the power of the stars."

"Chief! The power of the stars has vanished!"

Someone excitedly barged in.

The bureau chief immediately stood up. "Disappeared? What do you mean?"

"It just suddenly disappeared. We checked the surrounding small worlds and confirmed that the power of the stars did not enter them."

"Great! The power of the stars has finally dissipated. It seems that it could not be inherited by anyone and thus vanished into the void."

Various speculations arose. After a moment of contemplation, the director said, "In that case, let's begin repairing the small world. This tribulation is finally over. Everyone, keep busy for a while, and then we'll treat you all to a good time!"

Compared to dealing with the power of the stars, they clearly preferred repairing the small world, and a relaxed smile finally appeared on their gloomy faces.

After everyone left, the bureau chief stared at the communication information displayed on his personal terminal, remaining silent for three seconds before getting up and leaving again. "Where are the systems that Director Li controlled last time?"

"At the T-HOK lab."

Director Zuo grunted and began the teleportation. Looking at the rows of dormant systems, he released his mental energy and decisively scanned them, successfully discovering Director Li's consciousness.

Director Zuo disgustedly erased the consciousness. It was hiding inside the system; did it intend to absorb the energy of the luck particles while completing the mission with the host?
