The four of them talked and laughed as they walked towards the VIP lounge at Boston’s Logan International Airport.

Since Zhang Lisheng had intended to return to New York on a private jet, there was no fixed time for him to leave. He could leave anytime during the flying interval that had been booked. For this reason, the moment he entered the terminal, a ground staff in a blue uniform immediately asked politely, “Dr. Zhang, would you like to take a rest first or do you plan to board the plane right away?”

“I’ll board the plane right away. Parting is the most uncomfortable. The longer I drag this, the more tormenting it would be.” The young man nodded and smiled at the ground staff. Then, he turned to kiss Tina, and the cheeks of Trish and Sheila before whispering to them, “The three of you can look at the book. You can study it but don’t be reckless as to carry out your own experiment! I’ve been regretting a lot these few days for passing the book to you guys…”

“Baby, you have already repeated the same sentence for over ten times already!” Tina asked helplessly, “I’ll answer you for the very last time. Don’t worry, we won’t act recklessly!”

“Okay, see you then!” Zhang Lisheng nodded and waved at the girls. Under the company of the ground staff, he walked along the special passage of the VIP to pass through the gate and entered his Boeing BBJ737 business aircraft decorated in a low-key manner that hinted on extreme luxury.

Sitting on a special sofa the size of a single bed beside the window, the young man looked at the sunny weather outside and began to plan what he would do after returning to New York. “I must go to Shrimp B1 Island. Then I must also follow up on the ’51st State of the United States’ Plan that Edward proposed. Biology is my only hobby, and it indirectly complements my witchcraft cultivation very well. Getting a doctoral degree is not my ultimate goal, since my theoretical knowledge is not so solid yet, I must return to Stanford to study when I have time…”

The more Zhang Lisheng thought about it, the more things came to his mind, causing him to frown unknowingly.

“I first thought I could be a little loose while waiting for the steamships to be built, but come to think of it, there are actually so many things waiting for me to do…” He muttered and sighed. Without warning, a pleasant sound resounded in the cabin. “Doctor, here is your Coke. Is there anything else that you would like to have?”

“Baked lobster, raw oysters, squid, two medium-rare Wagyu beef ribs, one 12-inch, shrimp and chicken pizza. Thank you!” Zhang Lisheng casually replied.

Even though his demands seemed absurd, since he was a voracious eater in the eyes of those who knew him, Charlie had purposely customized the jet with complete kitchen equipment and a freezer that could store a large amount of food. Coupled with the fact that there would be at least three chefs who specialized in international cuisine on standby in the cabin during every voyage, his absurd demands had become reasonable.

“Please wait for a while, doctor,” Upon hearing Zhang Lisheng’s words, the beautiful, tall stewardess responded gently and walked gracefully toward the kitchen with the slight purpose of showing her beautiful figure.

Unfortunately, the young man ignored the ‘beautiful scenery’ on the cabin aisle at all. He took a gulp of the iced Coke and lifted the phone on the arm of the sofa to dial Charlie’s number.

The phone was quickly picked up. Charlie’s slightly exaggerated laughter resonated in Zhang Lisheng’s ears. “Boss! Good afternoon! Is there any serious issue as to why you’re looking for me?”

“Nothing special. I just want to ask what is the progress of the plan Edward proposed?”

“Everything is going smoothly! Even though I’m kinda reluctant to say this, but the disaster at Harvard Stadium in Boston has increased the feasibility of the ‘plan’…”

“What does Boston’s stadium turning into a crater has anything to do with our ‘plan’?” Zhang Lisheng was stunned and interrupted in confusion.

“Even though the official explanation that the government gave is that the disaster at Harvard Stadium is a terrorist attack launched by the foreign world’s god from its spying on Earth, anyone with a brain who heard the words of that strange voice would know that the cause of the tragedy was actually an act of revenge. This shows that adopting a soft and integrated attitude towards the foreign world is far better than a tough confrontation, especially now that more and more foreign worlds are emerging.”

“Aha! Observing the real essence through a phenomenon, huh? The human heart can truly seem complicated sometimes…” the young man chimed in mockingly. At this time, the radio broadcast went off on the plane. “Good afternoon, doctor. This is Captain Walter from the Scientific Star here to report to you that the plane is taking off soon. Please be prepared.”

“Did you hear that, Charlie? That funny captain you hired is saying that the plane is taking off soon. We need to hang up the call for a while.”

“Are you on the plane now, Boss?”

“Yes, I’m planning to return to New York from Boston. Let’s talk again after five minutes,” Zhang Lisheng said and hung up.

The plane slowly turned around in the hangar and steadily entered the airport runway. It slowly accelerated, and soon, it gradually climbed up to the necessary height while heading straight into the clear, blue, cloudless sky.

By the time the plane had already stabilized, several flight attendants sent raw oysters, grilled lobsters, and steaks to the young man and the cabin manager said with a smile, “Doctor, the pizza and the squid chowder will take more time…”

“Don’t worry,” Zhang Lisheng waved and interrupted the beautiful woman. Picking up the oysters to slurp, he picked up the phone and pressed the redial button.

After he connected the call, he said, “Charlie, let’s continue.”

“Yes, Boss. Since the “Harvard Stadium Massacre” in Boston influenced their decision, Senator Heston, who has always held a hawkish position on Shrimp World No. 1, may accompany the resignation of Secretary Chelsey, the chief commanding officer of the United States Department of Homeland Security. What’s different is that the president abandoned one of them while the voters ousted the other…”

“Stop telling me all these complicated political relations, Charlie. Can you tell me what I need to do now?”

After a moment of silence on the other side of the phone, the voice resonated again. “It’s not the time for you to show yourself yet, Boss. After all, this is a big plan, and no matter how smooth it is, it can’t be completed in a short time.”

“Alright, I’m just asking. Oh, my steak is getting cold now. I’ll talk to you next time, Charlie,” Zhang Lisheng said and hung up again.

After putting down the phone, he picked up the table knife and cut a piece of fat and tender steak to put into his mouth, prompting a sigh of admiration from him as he murmured, “I’ve actually ticked one thing off my list before I even get off the plane. This is quite efficient…”

After eating steaks, raw oysters, and lobsters, the squid chowder and the steaming pizza just happened to have just taken out of the oven. Before he could finish eating the pizza, the Boston-New York voyage with a total mileage of over 300 kilometers had ended.

The ‘Scientific Star’ slowly landed at JFK International Airport in New York and safely turned into the hangar.

When the plane landed, Zhang Lisheng left the cabin with a large pizza in his hand with the flight attendants queuing up to see him off. Since he was a VIP, a dedicated golf cart on the airport runway picked him up and had a limousine waiting for him when he exited the airport.

Sitting in the extended black Cadillac, the young man came to his factory on the outskirts of New York.

Now that he returned to his office that he had not seen for a long time, he locked the door and commanded the wizard gu that he hid in the underground trenches to shrink and nihilate its body so it could climb up to his hands before solidating itself.

Staring at the red, eight-headed, strange bug that was lying quietly on his palm, Zhang Lisheng could not help but show an excited expression on his face. Stroking the wizard gu’s rubber-like body and triangular head, he murmured in slight excitement, “It’s cultivated! Since all eight heads are grown now, I could say that Red Mountain is something fully cultivated now. I only need to hatch the egg of the Manifestation Gu and all the wizard gus I’ll use for transformations will be assembled already!”

While the young man was speaking, the wizard gu in his hand gradually became smaller and finally turned into the size of a grain before crawling into his flesh. At the same time, a few other poisonous bugs that Zhang Lisheng believed to have potential crawled out of his flesh and nihilated their bodies to enter the factory’s trenches filled with blood and organs.

After finishing all these, the young man stripped his clothes and threw them into the closet. He nihilated his body using the wizard power’s body and crossed the wall to jump into the sea. Then, he changed the wizard power and transformed into the wyrmdragon to rise to the sky before making his way towards Shrimp B1 Island.

After crossing the world’s gate which had grown a lot, Zhang Lisheng soon saw the jujube-shaped island with an area of ​​about 30,000 square kilometers that was in his control.

After coming to the sky above the island, the young man looked down condescendingly to find the Wizard Li tribe’s ancestral ground in the lush green jungle and slowly descended. Before he had even reached the ground with just his rolling clouds beneath his feet, he entered the sight of the natives and every working Wizard Li tribesmen who remained in the tribe had already crouched down on the ground while chanting their prayers under their breaths.

A few seconds later, the Wizard Li’s headman, who heard the commotion, quickly rushed out of a small treehouse built near the totem pole and the huge bark house enshrining the tribal book of history and kneeled in front of Zhang Lisheng. “Great Conqueror, the only living faith, the living legend, the source of glory of Wizard Li, I kneel in the dust, looking up to your glory and praising your holiness.”

“Alright, Tugra, stand up! How has the tribe been while I was gone?” Zhang Lisheng asked as he looked down at the natives kneeling by his feet.

“Great Conqueror, Wizard Li is getting more powerful now! It has always been prosperous!” The Wizard Li’s headman stood up and answered respectfully. “The only unexpected event is that a mainlander’s ship has drifted to the island.”

“Mainlander? A mainlander who is still alive?” Zhang Lisheng asked in dumbstruck.

“Yes, Great Conqueror! Mainlanders who are still alive. There are over 100 of them, and I’ve already locked them up accordingly to men and women in the stone prison.”

“The tribe’s attention should be on the Hellfire Archipelago and the mainland is still too far away for us,” Zhang Lisheng pondered and replied. “There’s no need to imprison the mainlanders and waste our food resources. Just give them some wooden rafts and let them continue their journey.”

Anyone equipped with a little knowledge of sailing in the sea should know that making a raft is just a euphemism for ‘letting him die’. Upon hearing how Zhang Lisheng would treat the mainlanders so cruelly without even sparing some time to see them, a complicated expression flashed across Tugra’s face and disappeared in a second, prompting him to speak, “Great Conqueror, I’ve had the same mindset too in the beginning, but when I saw that the mainlanders have the Hellfire Archipelago’s sea-chart in their hands…”

“The Hellfire Archipelago’s sea-chart?!” Zhang Lisheng exclaimed in surprise, interrupting the Wizard Li’s headman’s words. “Do you mean the nautical chart, Tugra?”
