The sound of sirens came from afar.

A large number of unmanned aircraft rose from the vicinity of the central area of Star City and quickly approached the Starlight Bridge.

Mu Qing’s punch towards the center of the lake caused a huge commotion.

The anomaly detection department of the Star City Military had evidently identified a substantial energy fluctuation. Simultaneously, citizens in the vicinity of Starlight Lake, upon hearing the loud noise, opted to alert the police.

The forces stationed in the central area of Star City were quickly mobilized and started to take action.

Looking at the unmanned reconnaissance fleet that appeared in the distance and the maglev military vehicles flashing blue and red below that were quickly approaching the Starlight Bridge, Feng Qi felt that it was time for him to leave.

At this moment, he turned to look at the lead domain creature.

“If anything happens in the future, you can contact me through the Tiger Soul Research Institute. Leave first.”

“Understood.”

The domain creature in the lead immediately nodded. Then, he turned around and led the other two domain creatures down the Starlight Bridge.

“Ah Qi, I don’t think they are sincere in joining us,” Mu Qing suddenly said after the three domain creatures left.

“It doesn’t matter.”

“Why?” Mu Qing was curious.

“They don’t have a choice. As long as they’re under my control, I don’t care what they think.”

Feng Qi had also asked Fog about similar questions in the previous timeline.

However, Fog’s words made him understand the logic.

It said that such an opportunity was too tempting for the lower-level forces. They might never encounter it again in their lives.

They might not completely believe him, but this was undoubtedly an opportunity.

This was like a big gamble that could create huge future benefits.

All living beings possess strengths and weaknesses. Not everyone could gaze down upon the world and freely determine their future path alongside their kin.

These weaklings who struggled at the bottom were destined not to have the right to choose.

When he presented a beautiful vision of the future, it was akin to a drowning person grasping at a straw, offering a glimmer of hope amid the uncertain times ahead.

They knew very well that what they might see after coming ashore might not be hope, but an even more desperate scene.

However, if they missed this opportunity, a similar one might never appear again.

Therefore, they would choose to take a gamble.

Through Fog’s analysis, he understood the logic behind it.

He had also seen similar situations in the Dark God Race.

Faced with the resources of the Spiritual Energy Race, how could the Dark God Race not know about the hidden dangers, let alone think that the Spiritual Energy Race was purely helping out of goodwill?

There was a hidden danger behind the support of resources.

However, the Dark God Race still chose to submit to the Spiritual Energy Race.

This was also a huge gamble, betting on the future of the Dark God Race to obtain a chance of survival.

Therefore, in the previous timeline, the owner of the fog was not worried that the higher-ups of the weak race alliance would betray it. This was because it brought hope, regardless of whether it was true or false.

After hearing his explanation, Mu Qing pondered for a moment and nodded.

“Let’s go,” Feng Qi said at this moment. With that, he jumped down from the bridge.

Seeing this, Mu Qing immediately jumped down as well.

A moment later, Feng Qi and Mu Qing appeared in the corridor along the east side of Starlight Lake.

Next, they decided to make a trip to the military headquarters in the central area of Star City.

If they wanted to completely control Star City, the military was a powerful force that could not be avoided.

As the only law enforcement and foreign war organization in Star City, the military controlled most of the armed forces in Star City.

In terms of influence, the Star City Military was relatively low-key. Other than sudden major incidents, they didn’t interact with the public.

However, there was no doubt that the Star City Military was the most powerful organization in the city.

If Breaking Dawn did not manage their relationship with Star City Military well, it would greatly affect the subsequent advancement of the combat timeline.

It was already ten o’clock at night, and there was an endless stream of passers-by along the lake.

Some passers-by stood outside the railings along the lake and looked in the direction of the lake. They were all curious about the reason for the loud explosion in the middle of the lake.

From time to time, there would be unmanned aircraft flying past above their heads. The searchlights kept scanning the lake.

Feng Qi and Mu Qing walked along the lake. On both sides were various snack stalls filled with tourists.

Smoke rose from the chimney, and the smell of smoke and fire assaulted their faces.

The smell of all kinds of food filled the air, arousing Feng Qi and Mu Qing’s appetite.

“Are you hungry?” He turned to look at Mu Qing.

“I’m not!” Mu Qing said seriously.

“You haven’t had dinner yet. You must be hungry. Have something to eat before heading to the military. My treat.”

With that, Feng Qi walked towards the snack stall by the lake.

Mu Qing’s stomach growled as she gazed at the food stall emitting smoke. Without hesitation, she followed Feng Qi decisively.

A moment later, Feng Qi and Mu Qing sat on the seats beside the snack stall and began to eat heartily.

The night breeze blew past his face as he looked at the passersby coming and going.

Feng Qi realized that when he calmed down, everything around him was beautiful.

He still remembered the first time he came here. It was with his parents.

However, that memory had already become blurry. He had long passed the carefree years.

“Ah Qi, are you tired?” Mu Qing, who was eating skewers, interrupted his thoughts.

“Yes.” Feng Qi admitted without hesitation.

“Have you ever thought of giving up?”

“I hesitated, but in the end, I persevered. It only strengthened my resolve.”

“What drives you forward?” Mu Qing’s eyes were filled with curiosity as she stopped eating..
