In the dark underground world, a flying shuttle is moving quickly.

This flying shuttle is almost silent, and even when flying at a speed of over 500 kilometers per hour, it does not produce any noticeable noise.

The underground world is huge, like an abyss. In the vast darkness, this aircraft is like a firefly, illuminating a small area near it.

But it's only a small part.

"Hmm..." Keke was tired of the boring scenery outside the window. Her little body had curled up in Xu Xin's arms. She yawned and began to feel sleepy.

"By the way, if we keep the lights on, won't we be easily discovered?" Xu Xin asked the man.

"We don't have to worry about that around here for now, but after another 200 kilometers, we'll need to turn off the searchlight," the man replied.

"Then in the darkness..."

"Don't worry, the shuttle can scan the surrounding terrain within one kilometer clearly. Although the travel speed will be reduced, it can still reach a speed of 400 kilometers per hour."

"That's good." Xu Xin nodded and looked out the window again.

"By the way, I haven't asked your name yet." Xu Xin suddenly said.

"My name..." The man paused, then smiled bitterly. "My name? I almost forgot... My last name is Yang. You can call me Old Yang. That's what they all call me."

"Lao Yang, if we succeed, what do you want to do?"

"Success..." Lao Yang's voice became slightly melancholy. "Haha... If you really succeed, then maybe I... Sorry, I don't have any ideas for the time being. I've never considered this. These things are out of reach for me."

"Have you really never thought about what will happen after you gain freedom?"

"Gain freedom?" Old Yang shook his head. "For so many years, all we've been thinking about is how to keep more people alive. If survival is even a struggle, how can we even talk about freedom?"

This sentence is really sad.

"Before the survivors arrived, we were constantly trying to avoid being studied and slaughtered by the alien invaders. You see, watching our companions dwindle day by day, not knowing when we would be chosen, subjected to inhumane treatment, and die on the test bench... We've lived in this fear for nearly a thousand years."

Lao Yang's voice was low, and the tone was like someone who had just woken up from a horrific nightmare and was telling others about his dream experience in a cold sweat.

No, this is not a nightmare, this is real.

Xu Xin was silent.

"Hmm..." Coco raised her little head slightly.

"Later, survivors appeared." Lao Yang's voice softened slightly. "We have new companions. After that, we can be said to have rekindled hope. What we need to do now is to ensure that more people survive..."

He turned his head to look at Xu Xin. "I once had someone kill you. I apologize. You were there at that time, right? What I said then was absolutely true. If you and your World Tree continue to exist, the other survivors in this group, and even us... may suffer."

"...Then why are you helping us now?"

"Because... there is a 'god' on your side, or... should we call it a 'demigod'?"

Demigod...

This name is really a bit childish.

"That's the Survivor Plan it proposed," Old Yang said. "It sends people who should have died a thousand years ago to the future and gives them another chance to survive."

"...It just wants to complete its plan." Xu Xin said.

"No matter what it wanted to accomplish, it saved many lives and gave us hope. After learning that it also has half human blood, we once again see hope."

That's why I decided to help them...

Xu Xin discovered that the other party's attention was actually completely on the monster.

The other party's hope and almost non-existent confidence were all given by the monster.

He didn't believe Xu Xin and the others, but he felt that since there were monsters around, this plan had little hope.

And Xu Xin and the others don't seem to be the focus.

Well, Xu Xin could still understand him.

Having been enslaved by alien invaders for thousands of years, in their hearts, humans have no chance of defeating the alien invaders.

In their minds, only alien invaders can defeat alien invaders.

Because of this deep-rooted concept, Xu Xin and his friends had such an unpleasant first negotiation with Lao Yang, and they hardly reached any consensus.

But then the monster appeared and everything went smoothly.

Here's why.

But it doesn't matter.

As long as you can help them, no matter what the reason is.

The aircraft continued to navigate in the endless darkness.

…

On the other side, the World Tree.

After Ji Chaoyang and his men launched the attack, the army of alien invaders suffered the first wave of nuclear strikes.

The mushroom cloud rising into the sky was very spectacular.

The legions of alien invaders also responded immediately.

Outside the mushroom cloud, those aircraft that were not affected by the nuclear explosion no longer moved at a snail's pace, but instead exploded at super-high speeds one by one, rushing towards the World Tree!

This speed is really fast. It is estimated that each aircraft can reach a speed of about 2,000 kilometers per hour!

This is not a fighter jet, but an aircraft that can fly slowly and even hover!
