When Xu Si came back to his senses from his shock, he couldn't help but frown.

"Hey man, it's the 21st century now. There's no future for amateur science. Try to cheat in a different way. You just took a model and said it's controlled nuclear fusion. Do you think I can--"

“This is not a model…”

Xu San interrupted Xu Si's words, staring at the Ark Reactor on the table that was emitting blue light. As Xu Si stared at him in amazement, he said in a deep voice, "It's true. My telekinesis can sense the energy contained in it."

As soon as these words were spoken, Xu Si's expression changed immediately.

"Who are you?"

Xu Si couldn't help but take a step back, looking at them in shock and vigilance, as if he had just met the three people.

He knew the meaning of controlled nuclear fusion, which was definitely not a technology that a few reclusive aliens could come up with.

"Let's get to know each other again."

Zhao Lihe stood up from his chair, and the suit on his body changed into a black dragon robe in the silver light. A golden dragon with bared fangs and claws hovered over the black robe, staring at the two astonished people in front of him with its majestic dragon eyes.

Under the Tongtian Crown, a tassel made of white jade hung in front of the forehead, and the black pupils below were filled with golden lightning.

"I am the founding emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, Zhao Lihe!"

Electricity is generated from the void.

Golden arcs of electricity radiated and spread in the air around Zhao Lihe, matching his noble black dragon robe and his extremely natural and unpretentious demeanor, making him look grand, dignified and majestic.

Xu San and Xu Si couldn't help but look at each other in shock.

As the persons in charge of the company's North China region, the two Xu brothers have seen the world and have even met several of the top leaders who often appear in the news.

But it was not until today that they finally understood what the power of an emperor was.

The aura of the man in front of me is definitely not something that can be faked by acting.

That is the majesty of an emperor that can only be cultivated by being in a high position and having control over life and death.

Seeing that the two people in front of him were intimidated by his words and momentum, Zhao Lihe breathed a sigh of relief. While praising his own acting skills, he raised his hand to take off the Tongtian Crown, placed it on the table, and covered the Ark reactor that was emitting blue light.

"Now, you can go and inform your superiors..."

Zhao Lihe looked at Xu San and Xu Si and said calmly.

Xu San came back to his senses, took one last look at Zhao Lihe who had an indifferent expression, took a deep breath, and turned away with Xu Si.

As the two people's hurried footsteps gradually moved away, Zhao Lihe's expression changed and he revealed a complacent smile.

"How about it, my acting is pretty good, right?"

"What kind of acting is that? You're supposed to be like this!"

Zuo Yu rolled his eyes, then picked up the Tongtian Crown on the table, played with it, and said in amazement: "This is an imitation of the Tongtian Crown made in Qin Dynasty, right? When did you get such an outfit?"

"It was all the bad idea of ​​my men!"

Zhao Lihe sighed helplessly, "Now that I have conquered the entire Guanzhong and most of the north, my subordinates persuaded me to be the King of Guanzhong first, and then change the reign and ascend the throne after conquering the whole world. This dragon robe and crown were taken out by them when they persuaded me to ascend the throne..."

Zuo Yu asked with great interest: "Have you become king?"

"No." Zhao Lihe shook his head, lowered his eyes, looked at the dragon robe on his body and said calmly, "To be honest, if your sister-in-law hadn't been trying to stop me, I would have almost destroyed this dragon robe and crown with a bolt of lightning. Humph, we have just conquered half of the north, and our influence is not even comparable to Cao Cao in the Battle of Red Cliffs, and these people are already thinking about becoming marquises and generals..."

"Do you really think I'm a mountain king like Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng?!"

Zhao Lihe snorted coldly, and golden arcs of electricity unconsciously emerged from the acupoints all over his body.

Zuo Yu and Li Yun looked at each other, and their expressions seemed a little strange.

Although Zhao Lihe himself did not notice it, he did already have the dignity of a superior.

The performance just now was not just acting, there was also a bit of true character in it.

but……

"Old Zhao, your dragon robe is burnt."

Zuo Yu kindly reminded him.

Zhao Lihe was startled for a moment, then reacted quickly and quickly retracted the golden lightning on his body.

But unfortunately, it was too late to stop now, and several holes had been burned in the black dragon robe.

Zhao Lihe's body was shining silver as he put on the suit in the space ring. He then touched the hole on the dragon robe and said depressedly, "It's bad, it's bad. Bai Ying is going to blame me again!"

"Never mind it!"

Zuo Yu casually grabbed the dragon robe and spurted out flames from his palm, burning it to ashes.

Zhao Lihe's eyes widened immediately. Before he could speak, he heard Zuo Yu say with a smile, "When we return to the Alliance, I'll give you a few better ones. What material do you like? How about King Ghidorah's scales and wing membranes?"

“…”

Zhao Lihe opened his mouth and closed it again. After thinking for a while, he shook his head and said, "I still prefer black."

"It doesn't matter, just dye it." Zuo Yu didn't care at all, and asked curiously, "You just said that you are the founding emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty. Is Xia the name you want for the country?"

"That's right."

Zhao Lihe nodded: "Originally, I also thought about making up a country name myself, or changing the country name to Qin, Han, or even simply inheriting the name of the Ming Dynasty, but in the end I still chose Xia..."

Zuo Yu asked curiously: "Why?"

Zhao Lihe chuckled and said, "Because the Xia Dynasty is the first hereditary dynasty recorded in Chinese history books, and the dynasty I founded will be the last dynasty in the Ming Dynasty. If I change the name of my country to Xia, then the Central Plains will be China from beginning to end, which can be regarded as having a beginning and an end!"

“Interesting…”

Zuo Yu said with interest.

Li Yun also nodded thoughtfully.

"Let's not talk about this anymore." Zhao Lihe asked with a smile, "Is the afternoon game about to start?"

"There are still about ten minutes left." Zuo Yu picked up the Ark Reactor on the table and tossed it in his hands, saying casually, "But there's nothing interesting about these two matches. If Lu Linglong doesn't use her ability to control blood, she will definitely not be a match for Zhang Chulan, and Yun is definitely not a match for Feng Baobao."

"It can be said that from the moment the top eight list was announced, Zhang Chulan had already stepped into the finals. As long as he and Feng Baobao perform well, the position of Heavenly Master will belong to him."

Zhao Lihe seemed to be thinking: "It means there is something fishy going on."

Li Yun nodded and said, "There is indeed something shady going on."

"What about you two?" Zhao Lihe looked at them with interest. "Your competition will be tomorrow, right?"

Li Yun thought for a moment, then looked at Zuo Yu and said, "Brother Zuo should win. My physique is slightly higher than Brother Zuo's, but I haven't started practicing radiation skills yet. I'm definitely no match for Brother Zuo in terms of combat power."

"You really want to fight me?"

Zuo Yu looked at him in surprise, then took out a coin from his pocket.

"Let's flip a coin, Lao Li. Guess, heads or tails?"

"..." Li Yun's mouth twitched, and after a little thought, he said, "Front view."

Zuo Yu tossed the coin casually, and it landed on the table, spinning for a few seconds before landing steadily.

It's really positive.

Zuo Yu curled his lips: "Very good, you go deal with Zhang Chulan!"

Li Yun did not refute, but nodded slightly, and the outcome of tomorrow's semi-final was decided in this way.

At this moment, Zhao Lihe's cell phone vibrated.

“Here I come.”

Zhao Lihe perked up, took out his cell phone, checked the latest text message, then looked at Zuo Yu and Li Yun with a smile.

"The latest news is that Zhao Fangxu, the chairman of Nadutong Express, wants to meet with me. It is said that he will be accompanied by higher-level leaders. Are you interested?"

"Of course!" Zuo Yu smiled, threw the Ark Reactor to Zhao Lihe, stretched his waist and said, "Finally, there is something more interesting than watching the game!"

…

…

The presidential suite of a five-star business hotel at the foot of Mount Longhu.

Zhao Lihe sat on the sofa with his arms and legs stretched out, next to him were Zuo Yu who was playing with coins and Li Yun who looked calm. In front of him was a huge screen with three old men on it.

The old man in the center is wearing a Zhongshan suit. He has a kind face but an aura of majesty without even getting angry.

There were two old men sitting next to him. The one on the left was wearing a white shirt and had an elegant temperament, looking like a scholar. The one on the right was wearing round reading glasses and had a plump figure. He was Zhao Fangxu, the chairman of Nadutong Express Company.

very good……

Anyone who can have Zhao Fangxu accompany him must be of higher status than him.

It seems that the higher-ups really take this seemingly joking information from the Xu brothers very seriously.

"Let me introduce you three."

Xu Si stood in front of Zhao Lihe and the others, and said with an unprecedented serious expression: "The person on the right is Zhao Fangxu, the chairman of our Nadutong Express Company. The person on the left is Academician Liu, who has presided over many key national defense projects. Today he is here as a scientific advisor."

"As for the man in the middle, Mr. Li, if you have watched the news on TV, you should know him..."

"I do know him." Zhao Lihe nodded, with a complicated look in his eyes.

How could he not recognize him? After all, this old man also existed in their hometown.

After Xu Si introduced the identities of the three old men, Xu San stepped forward and introduced Zhao Lihe and the other two to them.

Although Zhao Lihe, Zuo Yu and others knew that the other party must have read all the information about them since they appeared in the world.

But the necessary process still needs to be followed...

After both parties finished their introductions, Zhao Lihe crossed his hands, placed them on the table, looked at Mr. Li on the screen and spoke seriously.

"Mr. Li, do you know about parallel universes?"
