Chapter 107 Siren
The pitch-black vehicle drove out from a street not far from East District University and sped along. The surrounding scenery flew past the window, gradually changing from a bustling urban area to a monotonous street with no one in sight.
These alien species did not intend to restrict Rong Le's vision too much. After driving for a distance, checkpoints began to appear on the road.
The vehicle Rong Le was in went through several inspections, and was allowed to pass directly after seeing that there was a human sitting in the back seat.
This place still belongs to the East District, but on the city planning map, it is a villa complex in the wealthy area of the East District where no one is allowed to trespass. It is surrounded by lush green vegetation. Almost no one can imagine that the people living here are all aliens.
Rong Le thought about how the guards looked at them as if they were not surprised to find humans sitting in the car during the inspection. Perhaps they had seen this kind of thing many times.
The vehicle finally stopped at the door of a villa. Rong Le was taken to the living room by an alien who looked like a butler and sat down. There was even tea to entertain the guests. He sat there and waited. The butler said that the owner would come down soon.
After the butler finished entertaining the guests, he left. Rong Le was the only one left in the magnificent living room.
If it were an ordinary person, he would have probably lost his mind under the oppression of this empty and silent atmosphere. The cold and gorgeous decorations were devoid of any human energy, as if they were a cage made of gold.
As a prey about to be hunted by an alien species, this feeling will become stronger and stronger as time goes by. By the time the real target comes, the psychological defense line will have collapsed.
Unfortunately, this kind of psychological warfare was useless to Rong Le.
He even had the leisure to observe the decorative layout of the living room, and noticed that several items had indeed existed for a considerable number of years. As the alien family with the longest inheritance, the Mother Goddess's family did have some heritage.
After a while, the host did not show up, and Rong Le was left alone in the living room.
After waiting for a while, the door suddenly opened again.
A clear voice came in and called out, "Uncle housekeeper, I'm back. Is everything ready?"
The sound of footsteps came running over, and when passing by Rong Le's sofa, he suddenly let out a light exclamation.
"Why are there humans here?"
Rong Le then looked up and put down the teacup in her hand. The little boy was wearing overalls, mid-calf socks and small leather shoes. He had black hair and eyes, and fair skin. He looked very cute and seemed to be only eight or nine years old.
He greeted politely: "Hello, I am an invited guest."
"guest?"
The moment the little alien opened its mouth, its evil nature was exposed, its small fangs looming in its mouth: "Is this the kind that can be eaten?"
The reckless, reckless little aliens are more difficult to deal with than adults who still have concerns.
He might just rush over and bite you.
"You can't eat it. Your family will be distressed if you eat it."
Rong Le answered his question calmly.
The little alien tilted his head, as if a little confused as to why this human wasn't afraid of him: "I'm an alien?"
Will eat you.
He bared his fangs and roared in warning.
Rong Le even laughed happily and reached out to touch his fangs gently: "Yeah, I know, very cute teeth, it must be effortless to bite through the prey."
His praise made the little alien feel happy physically and mentally. He decided to talk to this human for a few more words: "Aren't you afraid?"
"What are you afraid of? Aliens? Compared to uncontrollable beasts, aliens can communicate. In my opinion, there's no need to be afraid."
Rong Le: "Besides, I've seen many extremely powerful alien species, so I'm not afraid anymore."
"Impossible! You'll be scared when you see my mom and my brother!"
The little alien said loudly: "They are very powerful, more powerful than any other aliens you have ever seen."
Rong Le smiled and said, "Really? Then it seems I should get to know him."
The little alien solemnly promised to show Rong Le the most powerful alien.
His focus had shifted from how to take a bite of this delicious human to showing Rong Le what he considered to be the most powerful alien species in the world.
Open this human's eyes and let him admit that his mother and brother are the most powerful alien species.
"You are the prey that mom brought back. Don't worry, I will let mom let you live for a while longer. I also want to talk to you more."
I don’t know if it’s because no one wants to listen to him, but once the little alien started talking, he couldn’t stop, and he stuck to Rong Le like a little animal.
Rong Le agreed softly and spoke to the little alien in a low voice. Just a few words made him laugh, and he had no intention of eating this human at all.
Seeing that his youngest son was deceived, the person behind the scenes finally couldn't sit still anymore, and soon the sound of people coming down the stairs was heard.
"Gong Tang, come back."
A female voice was deep and majestic.
Gong Tang's eyes lit up, and he immediately jumped up from beside Rong Le and ran to his mother: "Mom!"
Rong Le also looked up.
A gorgeously dressed lady walked down the stairs slowly. She was wearing a European-style skirt, her black hair was neatly tied up and adorned with simple jewelry.
Even at home, she still has exquisite makeup. It is obvious that she has dressed up carefully to meet guests.
This family looks very similar to Gong Hua, and even without Rong Le saying anything, she can still tell that they are related by blood.
He also stood up, and after the lady had comforted her little son beside her, she looked at him and gave him a polite smile.
"Good afternoon, ma'am, it's an honor to meet you."
Even though he was invited suddenly, stayed in the living room for so long, and even nearly faced death threats, the young man with black hair and green eyes still had perfect demeanor.
His handsome face and smile could please women of any age, which also made the lady's expression slightly relaxed.
Although there was still sternness and scrutiny in his eyes.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting, Mr. Rong Le. Please forgive my impoliteness."
She responded politely and sat on the sofa opposite Rong Le.
Gong Tang was taken away by the butler who had been hiding nearby. Someone then came up to serve her tea, and Rong Le clearly saw that there was red liquid in her teacup.
She took a sip calmly under his gaze, then put down the teacup and said:
"It's indeed a bit abrupt to ask you to come here suddenly. However, after learning that a new force has emerged in this area without anyone noticing, and considering the current situation, it's hard not to think too much."
"I am the head of one of the branches of the Mother Goddess's clan, and also an elder within the clan, Gong Ling."
"As expected of the oldest alien family, their intelligence network cannot be underestimated. Since they were able to track me down, what did Elder Gong Ling plan to do by inviting me here?"
Rong Le folded her hands, a perfect mask already on her face.
After just one encounter and a brief exchange with Rong Le, Gong Ling could sense that this young man's mind was unpredictable. If she wanted to continue communicating, she would have to reveal more cards.
"Michigan University has set its sights on this place, right? You're the investigator they sent, and so is Baiyue, the new director of the group that's openly and frantically swallowing up surrounding industries."
"He's in the open, you're in the dark. Your target is the entire alien region. Otherwise, I don't understand why you're making such a big move."
She said.
"I see. Are the Mother Goddess's followers afraid?"
Rong Le smiled and said something even more sinister: "To have been able to take root in this area for so long, the Mother Goddess's family must have hidden industries here. Your members are also active in the city as humans, and even hold high positions."
"The rapid takeover of the industry makes you feel uneasy. You must have already found me, right? But you haven't taken any action yet. Are you trying to find my weakness?"
A trace of annoyance flashed across the face of the noble lady whose thoughts were exposed.
"Since this is a collaboration, both parties should be honest. Elder Gong Ling wants to find out my purpose, so he should also show corresponding sincerity."
Rong Le had been observing Gong Ling carefully, and she didn't know what she had discovered, so she smiled softly.
"It seems to me that you are not interested in my own value as opposed to discussing cooperation. Or, in other words, there is something else about me that you care more about."
"Right? Gonghua's mother."
Gong Ling stood up suddenly, his eyes were fierce, a scarlet light gradually emerged in his eyes, his elegant appearance faded, and his inhumanity continued to rise.
"You're very courageous."
She said slowly, "After I learned about this, I have been patient and did not immediately capture you and kill you. I didn't expect you to dare to provoke me. Are you really not afraid that I will kill you?"
Rong Le: "Well, from a normal perspective, I should say that you don't dare to kill me because I am from the University of Michigan. Provoking the University of Michigan will bring trouble to your family, but..."
He looked at Gong Ling and smiled with a confident smile: "You don't dare to kill me, because I have the key words of Gong Hua, and he can't leave me."
He spread his hands and said, "Trust your son. Even though he accidentally lost himself, he initially pestered me with the intention of killing me after enjoying himself. But later..."
Gong Ling: "It wasn't like that later on. Your intentions weren't simple!"
Rong Le smiled softly, her dark green eyes drooped slightly, her fingers slightly pressed against the corners of her upturned lips, and she said as if she was savoring the memory:
"There's nothing I can do. After all, bad kids need to be taught a lesson."
The lady was so angry that she almost exploded. After Rong Le exposed her identity, the atmosphere in the living room became tense. However, she couldn't kill the brat immediately and could only feel helpless and furious.
The barrage was also full of emotion.
"Old mother: My eldest son, how could you be so blind to find such an irritating partner!"
"He kidnapped someone else's child and still made the old mother so angry. He even sat on the sofa drinking tea with a clear conscience. He's so mean! I'm going to take him away right now and not scare everyone!"
"The abacus upstairs was beating so loudly that the beads bounced onto my face."
"This man's charm is terrifying, he's worthy of being a human from app90."
"Between the limits of humanity and the inhuman, Rong Le's rhetoric makes his persuasion almost invincible."
"On the surface: flirting and flirting everywhere, but in reality: there are so many people who like me, what should I do? In terms of behavior: using sweet words to give everyone a home."
"It's hilarious! It's true. And he follows through on his promises with his actions. How can he not be called a perfect man?"
Obviously, Rong Le's provocative behavior in the alien nest would not end well. Gong Ling, who could not do anything to him, could only angrily imprison him and throw him into the room.
"I can't kill you myself, but killing isn't the only way to solve problems in this world."
Gong Ling raised her red lips in a cold smile. Standing at the door, she looked down at Rong Le, who was tied up on the ground. "You just wait here for my child to come back, forever."
"As a collaborator, you're a real pain in the ass, but as a gift, you're perfectly qualified."
As she spoke, she turned around, leaving Rong Le with her back, and the door gradually closed.
Obviously, Rong Le was imprisoned by her.
"They are really a mother and son who are of the same lineage. Their brain circuits are the same."
Rong Le couldn't help but complain.
After all, Gong Hua once said that she wanted to bring him back to Chaoxue, and now in a sense his mother has fulfilled this wish for him.
It seems that now I can only wait here for Gong Hua to come back.
Rong Le's hands were tied behind her back. Because the rope was made of special material, there was no way to untie it. It was as tight as spider silk, but fortunately it was not uncomfortable.
He didn't care anymore and leaned against the wall with his head tilted back and closed his eyes to rest.
The door was locked and there was no guard outside, but the entire villa was filled with high-level alien species, so his escape could not escape their attention at all, not to mention that Rong Le did not want to leave.
The room was very quiet. After an unknown amount of time, there was a sudden noise outside the door.
Rong Le raised her eyes slightly, and after a rustling sound, the door was pushed open, revealing a ray of light from the corridor, and the little alien's head poked in.
His eyes quickly locked onto Rong Le lying on the ground: "Ah, I found you."
"It's been a while since I last saw you. It's a shame I've become like this now."
Rong Le blinked and apologized.
"It's okay, I just came to see you."
Gong Tang ran in, not forgetting to close the door, and walked up to him to look him over. "I heard from the housekeeper that you had a fight with Mom. You're amazing! Apart from those old guys outside, this is the first time I've seen Mom so angry. Her tentacles are about to show."
He took it as a compliment.
"It seems your mother doesn't have a good relationship with those 'old guys', but are they really willing to let you come in to see me?"
It seemed like Gong Ling was still very worried about his son, and he was more or less a dangerous person.
"She doesn't know. I asked the housekeeper to bring me here."
Gong Tang squatted on the ground. Although the light in the room was a little dim, it was still obvious that he was not injured. "I don't want you to die yet, so I have to ensure your safety before my brother comes back."
The little alien had a stern face, like a little adult. Rong Le found it very amusing. It was a pity that his hands were tied, otherwise she could tease him.
"I'm fine. Your mother didn't hit me. Thank you for caring about me."
He said gently.
Not knowing what nerve this sentence touched, Gong Tang stood up and said hurriedly, "Since you're not dead, I'll leave. Brother will be back soon."
He left in a hurry, not forgetting to turn on the light in the room before leaving.
It was still afternoon when Rong Le arrived, and now it was gradually approaching dusk, and the sky outside had begun to take on deep colors.
Gong Hua returned before dinner time. As soon as he entered the room, the housekeeper respectfully told him that the lady had prepared a gift for him and placed it in his room.
"Strange, is today a special day?"
Gong Hua was a little confused and walked straight into the room.
When he pushed open the door and saw clearly what the so-called gift on the ground was, his pupils suddenly trembled.
"teacher?!"
In the familiar room, a young man with black hair and green eyes suddenly appeared on the ground. With his hands tied behind his back, the buttons on his collar were loose, and his long hair was casually draped over his shoulders, he really looked like a "gift".
Seeing him come back, Rong Le winked frivolously: "Are you unhappy to see me, Gong Hua?"
It moves and is alive.
Gong Hua walked forward in amazement, half-knelt in front of him, and reached out to touch it: "It's real."
Rong Le smiled faintly: "Otherwise, do you think it's a realistic figurine?"
Seeing Gong Hua's expression as if to say that it was not impossible, Rong Le almost laughed in anger: "How can you be so useless? Help me untie it."
Only then did he realize that there was spider silk on Rong Le's hand. His sharp claws popped out from his fingertips and he gently picked it apart.
Rong Le's wrists loosened, and his arms were free again. He moved his wrists and said helplessly, "Your mother found out about our relationship and brought me here. I wanted to make a good impression, but it seems I offended your mother."
"Her personality is indeed a little difficult to get along with... I will explain it to her."
Gong Hua said hesitantly.
Rong Le paused.
"So, if she was caught hanging out with an unidentified person in private, do you think she would believe what she saw or what you said?"
Gong Ling is obviously a strong character at home who has the final say, although he has a protective nature.
But according to Rong Le's observation, there was no male owner in this family, so Gong Ling also played a strong and strict role in the growth of the two brothers.
Gong Hua obviously knew better than anyone how difficult his mother was to deal with. In addition, the way Rong Le was invited must have been very rough. The whole thing showed that his mother had been hiding this matter from him.
But later he got so angry that he packed up Rong Le and gave her to his son.
If it was the previous Gong Hua, he would definitely jump up happily and tell his mother that he liked the gift, but now, facing Rong Le's half-smile, he could only groan inwardly.
Just when he showed his usefulness, he got into more trouble.
That time, his family was willing to give him permission, perhaps because they had already noticed his relationship with Rong Le. Now thinking back on how he had always put on a flawless appearance at home, his mother had already noticed it.
Fortunately, he still has a backbone.
"Since she wants to see your reaction when she sees me, let's show her."
Rong Le hooked her fingers around his tie and pulled him towards her, and the young man's muscular back immediately formed an eye-catching curve.
He looked at the face that was so close to him, smiled softly, and said in an ambiguous tone: "I have a lot of experience dealing with such noble ladies."
Sadly, he won't lose.
When he tied an invisible chain to Gong Hua, the offense and defense had already reversed.
When Rong Le and Gong Hua came down the stairs one after another, Gong Ling and Gong Tang, who were already seated in the restaurant waiting for the last person to have their meal, cast their eyes over to them.
Rong Le smiled calmly as if she was just a guest at their house, not at all embarrassed by the gift.
Gong Ling couldn't believe it: "Gong Hua, why did you bring him out?"
Where is your biological instinct? People were sent to your lair, but you brought them out?
Gong Ling was well aware of the madness of their race. Only prey could make them happy, and few people could tame them.
When she first learned that Gonghua was very close to a human, she didn't think much about it and just thought it was another of his hunts.
However, this time the hunting consumed more and more of his energy, even to the point of sacrificing his own interests, which aroused Gong Ling's vigilance.
Her son was lazy by nature and didn't like fighting for power, but as the eldest son, he was also very talented. When she didn't have a younger son, Gong Ling, whose position was unstable, could only place him in front of everyone.
She carefully concealed his mental defects and made up for his needs in other ways. Even so, she often felt guilty towards Gong Hua.
After discovering that the professor's identity was too mysterious, she immediately used her family's intelligence network to investigate, and eventually discovered that the forces behind this young man were too powerful.
She suppressed the inexplicable panic in her heart and ordered people to be brought in to test his purpose.
The Mother Goddess's followers can only live in this area for a while. As long as the blessing behind this area does not disappear, they can exist here for a long time.
But the appearance of this young man made her feel a long-lost fear.
It wasn't just the power behind him, perhaps it was her intuition as a woman that made her vaguely aware that Gong Hua's feelings for this young man were more than just a simple infatuation.
...More like a willing surrender.
Gong Hua disagreed, "Mother, this joke is too much. He is very important to me."
Gong Tang was watching the show with sparkling eyes. Rong Le noticed his gaze and touched his head with amusement.
The child is clever and already knows that this human has a special status in the family. His brother also stands up for him, so he also has to face up to this human.
And he quite likes him too.
After hearing what Gong Hua said, Gong Ling felt dizzy and only one thought remained in his mind.
It's over, it's done.
Gong Hua's attitude determines how she will treat Rong Le in the future, how much price she will have to pay, and what kind of information she will obtain. Her son must be aware of this, but he still chooses to do so.
This shows that he is willing to submit to Rong Le.
And as his mother, she was at a disadvantage from the beginning.
This young man with black hair and green eyes grasped her vital point sharply and ruthlessly. In the subsequent negotiations, the initiative was no longer in her hands.
Gong Hua knew what she was thinking and said, "Mother, let's eat first. We can talk about anything after dinner."
Gong Ling didn't say anything, tacitly accepting this fact. Gong Hua ordered the butler to bring up Rong Le's meal as well.
Rong Le's seat was right next to Gong Hua's, opposite Gong Hua was Gong Tang, and the main seat was Gong Ling. When they sat down, Gong Hua glanced at him, probably asking if he had calmed down.
Rong Le responded with a polite smile.
The meal passed in an eerie calm for the four of them.
After dinner, Gong Hua was called away by his mother, and after a while he came back to find Rong Le.
"Mother said she wants you to stay at home for a few days. She apologizes for her attitude today, but she did it out of concern for me. She needs some time to evaluate her partnership with you."
Gong Hua relayed her mother's words.
He looked at Rong Le secretly, as if he was worried that he would not agree.
"Of course no problem, I'm also very happy to be your guest."
Rong Le smiled.
Rather, this was exactly the purpose of his trip.
