Chapter 1973: Message from the Heavens (Part One) ☁️

Published: February 12, 2025

Boom!

It wasn’t just a sound; it was something everyone felt, as if the entire room resonated with that feeling.

It was a silent explosion of energy, an uncontrollable surge that emanated from the excitement, joy, surprise, and shock that everyone felt all at once.

Each person was slightly dizzy from the shockwave, but more importantly, it was the news itself that left everyone stunned.

How long had Ye Zhongming been in the sky? Several months! Cloud Summit had already conquered half of the national district; many had sacrificed, and many had evolved. The internet celebrity and Big Yellow had both reached the ninth level.

It wouldn’t be accurate to say that everything had changed, but it certainly felt like a long time had passed.

In the national district, no, on Earth, every Cloud Summit person believed he was number one, unmatched by anyone, whether they were evolvers or mutated beings.

But up in the sky, it was a completely different story.

From the initial news of the apocalypse to the later introduction of the agent system, everyone realized that outside of Earth, there were powerful life forms existing.

The exact extent of the power of these beings was unclear, but one thing was certain: they were undoubtedly stronger than Ye Zhongming.

Many people didn’t voice their concerns, but in their hearts, they knew that Ye Zhongming had gone up there without even being able to bring equipment with him, and worries, even ominous premonitions, began to creep in.

Earthlings, who had not yet entered the interstellar era, were incredibly fragile in front of alien civilizations.

The absence of news for such a long time was inconsistent with the boss's character. Even if nothing unfortunate had happened, it was likely due to a lack of power to send down even the simplest message.

This implied that the boss was… not doing well up there.

This negative feeling grew stronger over time. If more time passed without any news, no one could guarantee what might happen within the Cloud Summit villa.

Now, finally, news had come, and without a doubt, it was a shot in the arm for everyone.

“Sister Lei, hurry up and tell us what the boss said!”

“Sister Lei, how is the boss doing up there?”

“Little Lei, did Zhongming say anything about what this All Races of the Universe is about? What is the Slave Race?”

“Big Sister, did the boss cause a huge uproar up there?”

“Hey, Xia Lei, can you hurry up and speak? Everyone is dying of anxiety!”

After a brief silence, everyone erupted, bombarding her with questions. This was not just the young people like Little Tiger and Young Master Yun; even Le Da Yuan and others were very anxious.

Xia Lei smiled and urged everyone to quiet down.

“I’ll explain bit by bit; there’s a lot of information, but undoubtedly, it’s all good news.”

With this statement, everyone calmed down, their faces filled with anticipation as they looked at Xia Lei.

“Perhaps everyone already knows a bit; Zhongming is an agent of the Tarros Red Dwarf. However, for some reason, upon going up there, he didn’t seek out this race, but instead entered a race called the Star-Eye Clan.”

Xia Lei began to recount the information she had received.

That day, a beam of light suddenly appeared in the room, prompting Xia Lei to almost activate the alarm that could mobilize the entire Cloud Summit.

Fortunately, what came through next was a gentle voice.

It was from that moment she learned about the Star-Eye Clan, knew where Ye Zhongming was, and realized her man was doing well and had become an agent of the Star-Eye Clan.

“And I, too, have now become the agent of the Star-Eye Clan for the Earthlings.”

Previously, everyone slowly learned about Ye Zhongming being an agent. Some equipment that was clearly not from Earth and tasks that didn’t match Cloud Summit’s objectives were leaked by Ye Zhongming, which wasn’t surprising.

Everyone knew that the agent system would undoubtedly bring many benefits. After the boss left, if Cloud Summit didn’t have an agent while other forces did, it could bring considerable trouble.
