With curious minds, the remaining group of people all gathered around the phone screen.
They wanted to see what kind of news could make Liu Yeli and Liu Ke Ping react this way.
The next moment, everyone saw it.
"What?"
"Huh?"
"This..."
"Is it true?"
"Oh my god, if it’s true, that’s terrifying."
The crowd was astonished, their exclamations rising and falling.
...
Inside the McBao King Company.
In the boss’s office, Qin Liang was on the phone with his dad, Qin Yuyong.
"I’ve talked with Mr. Lu. He wants me to go to Proxima Centauri to do catering, and as for your pharmaceutical company, he thinks you should open a branch there too, so the immigrants there can have medicine when they’re sick."
"Well, this time we really have to thank Mr. Lu for providing us with such a great platform."
"Dad, I’ve made up my mind. I’m planning to inspect Proxima Centauri in a while."
"Alright, I..."
On the phone, Qin Yuyong hadn’t finished speaking when a young woman’s alarmed voice came through.
Young woman: "Boss, there’s big news!"
Qin Yuyong: "What big news? Can’t you see I’m on the phone!"
Young woman: "It’s absolutely big news, you should check the news."
A moment later, there was an "ah" from Qin Yuyong on the other end of the phone, sounding extremely surprised.
Qin Liang was extremely curious and impatiently asked, "Dad, what is it?"
Qin Yuyong’s tone was somewhat incredulous, "Mr. Lu said, if Earth doesn’t dispatch troops to support the Galaxy Alliance..."
Qin Liang uttered, "Why is that big news? Mr. Lu is a True God, he does what he wants, is he really worried about what the Galaxy Alliance thinks?"
"Let me finish, okay," Qin Yuyong said irritably. "Mr. Lu’s point is, he won’t send our ordinary Earthlings to fight, which would be sending them to their death, but he will dispatch his ’superhuman army’ to go to the battlefield to help the Galaxy Alliance quell the chaos."
Upon hearing this, Qin Liang was completely dumbfounded, "A superhuman army? What on earth is that?"
...
Online.
Nuwa released the latest message, stating there would be no draft, but rather Lu Li’s direct unit, the "superhuman army," would be sent to fight.
Upon hearing this news, people of all nations should have felt relieved, as they no longer had to participate in brutal warfare.
However, many netizens became confused when they saw the four words "superhuman army," and started asking questions online.
"What superhuman army?"
"Besides the ’Eternal Star Lord,’ are there other people on Earth with superpowers?"
"No idea, never heard of the superhuman army before."
"Hey, I remember a while ago, Nuwa was recruiting volunteers to become the ’Eternal Star Lord’s’ guards, could it be related?"
"Nuwa was recruiting ordinary people, how could they become superhumans?"
"Yeah, those recruited were ordinary people, at best they might be trained, maybe they can fight better than average, but they can’t be superhumans."
"So what the hell is going on?"
A group of netizens was puzzled, really baffled.
At this moment, a netizen named "The Third Wish Doesn’t Want to Be Told Yet" speculated: "Do you think the ’Eternal Star Lord’ can bestow superpowers onto others, and those ordinary people recruited became superhumans after being granted powers by the ’Eternal Star Lord’?"
"Right."
"It’s possible."
"It’s not surprising for the ’Eternal Star Lord,’ as a True God, to grant superpowers to others."
"This explanation makes sense."
This speculation gained a lot of support.
But with approval comes new questions.
Another netizen named "Six-eyed Flying Fish" asked: "What superpowers do you think the ’Eternal Star Lord’ granted those guards?"
"They definitely have flight."
"Yes, if they can’t fly, the ’Eternal Star Lord’ wouldn’t send them to fight."
"I think they might also have the Invisibility Technique, so they can sneak up on others unnoticed."
"Wow, the Invisibility Technique is amazing. If the ’Eternal Star Lord’ could grant me such a superpower, I wouldn’t need a telescope to peek at girls bathing."
"Pfft, such ambition upstairs? I think all these superpowers are possible, but I believe you shouldn’t just speculate about superpowers, but also consider the identity of the ’Eternal Star Lord.’ He is an immortal who has cultivated the ’Yang God,’ so I guess the superpowers he grants to others might also be related to immortal techniques."
"Wow, if he really grants immortal techniques, that’s incredible."
"Yeah, is there a chance to see Sun Wukong and Erlang God’s technique ’Heaven and Earth’?"
"Come on, you think everyone can perform ’Heaven and Earth’."
"Why not? The ’Eternal Star Lord’ can perform such immortal techniques, he has even become larger than Earth before, so I think it’s reasonable for him to grant such techniques to others."
"The ’Eternal Star Lord’ being able to perform ’Heaven and Earth’ is one thing, whether he can grant others such immortal techniques is another. I’m not questioning the ’Eternal Star Lord’s’ strength, his being undefeated in the universe is undisputed, but you must know what kind of Divine Power ’Heaven and Earth’ is. It enhances all aspects of a person’s body to the scale of a ten-thousand-foot giant. Just imagine how much energy that requires, even if Mr. Lu can grant immortal techniques to others, does it mean he can grant them energy as powerful as his? Without such immense energy support, how could one use the Divine Power ’Heaven and Earth’?"
