Miyoshi Xuesen put his hands together, eyes looking at his nose, nose observing his heart, and said, "Please rest assured, benefactress, if there's anyone or anything you can't handle, feel free to come to this humble monk!"

Even after just experiencing a disaster, he remained calm and composed, carrying the dignified air of a high monk. It seemed his Buddhist teachings had become even more refined.

"So... how do I find 'Adam'?"

The Artificial Intelligence AI "Adam" wasn't a derivative offspring of "Cybertrom," and Mouri Misono didn't know how to contact it.

"Any mechanical being will do, or just send me a short message marked for 'Adam' to handle."

Chen Fei summoned a Combat Mech and, pointing at it, continued, "From now on, it will follow you. If something is unresolved, ask the monk, for routine queries, ask 'Adam', and if you forget anything, it will remind you."

Each mechanical being is "Adam"; there is no concept of derivative offspring. Permissions and functionalities are exactly the same; the collective is the individual. As long as the allocated computational resources are sufficient, the intelligence level is no less than "Cybertrom."

Miyoshi Xuesen excels at collecting and analyzing intelligence, but is not good at making decisions, especially big ones.

AI also has its own drawbacks, whether it's "Cybertrom" or "Adam", they're the same in this regard. When facing unknown situations and unexpected events, they often make wrong choices, sometimes even fatal ones.

Therefore, Chen Fei chose Mouri Misono, familiar with the characteristics of the defense company industry, and also knowing that as long as the small cadre with section-level working experience cooperates properly, it can also manage the now heavily staffed Socotra Island. It's nothing but simplifying complex work and delegating authority. Miyoshi Monk is responsible for investigating the truth, not easily deceived, "Adam" is responsible for sorting and process, even if efficiency is low, at least it won't get confused, no matter how messy, sooner or later, the work can be sorted out, people like Chen Fei, who don't have much large-scale management experience, can still cope easily (hands-off manager), likewise, Miss Mouri can also do it, anything is better than a blank slate.

What's more, women who dare to draw their swords are not much inferior to men when they get ruthless.

"Alright! Thanks for 'Rookie's trust, I will do my best to perform well."

Since she had already received the reward in advance, Mouri Misono had no choice but to accept this job with a strong face, only hoping she wouldn't let "Rookie" down.

Chen Fei nodded and smiled, "Alright, it's happily decided then."

Having to conquer Jiang Shan single-handedly, he didn't have many people he could trust, especially no suitable ones.

So with each one that came, he seized the opportunity, even if it meant pushing ducks onto the shelves.

"Miyoshi, I leave this place to you!"

Chen Fei gave the monk a glance and rose from the sofa.

"Hi!"

Miyoshi Xuesen clasped his hands together and then turned around, "Namo Amitabha Buddha, this humble monk has much important intelligence to tell the benefactress..."

The humble monk immediately started spouting again on the spot.

Leaving the pavilion, Chen Fei seemed to murmur to himself, "'Adam,' open the short message!"

Just now, he had received a short message marked as important.

The Artificial Intelligence AI "Adam" projected it onto the AR visual effect interface.

"I'm free now!" The sender was none other than Lin Ziyu Slan, Her Royal Highness the Princess of the Slan Dynasty.

Their free times often weren't at the same point, so short messages were suitable for communication, avoiding urgency and maintaining an appropriate sense of distance.

Chen Fei took out his phone and dialed Lin Ziyu's communication number. The phone terminal remained in sync with the "Adam" AR visual interface, as cloud technology originally supported simultaneous access by multiple terminals, with the key core being terminal security, cloud storage, and a composite network.

(Regarding AI, mechanical beings, and cloud as well as drone warfare, the strategic analysis by Uncle over a decade ago pinpoints the theme. I wonder if anyone has caught it)

Lin Ziyu's voice came through.

"Sorry, Chen Fei, I was just... uh, at a matchmaking event, you mustn't laugh!"

"Matchmaking event?" Chen Fei was startled and then very ungraciously displayed a grin, even letting out a wicked laugh, "Uhuhuhuhuhu... Your Royal Highness the Princess, are you serious?"

Who would have thought that the conversation would start with such explosive news?

Princess Lin Ziyu of the Slan Dynasty righteously said, "A man grown should marry, a woman matured should wed, what's wrong with that?"

She then lowered her voice, "I can't talk to you for long, he's still here, so please be brief."

She could only respond to Chen Fei's contact in her spare moment, making it impossible to have an endless conversation, given that her matchmaking partner was still waiting there. It was indispensable to give a bit of face to the young hero, and additionally, it also involved the royal family's demeanor.

At the end of her speech, Lin Ziyu's tone became serious again, fearing that Chen Fei would use this to teasingly ridicule her.

"What about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Does he also have a girlfriend?"

Chen Fei couldn't help but ask one more question. Since he already had a girlfriend, he was somewhat reckless with this kind of topic, wasn't stuffing dog food into others' mouths a normal operation?

"He's been engaged a long time ago, it's a political marriage. Poor elder brother, to wear the crown, you must bear its weight. Fortunately, I still have choices and do not worry about being used for marriage alliances. They are the rulers' incompetence."

At last, Her Royal Highness Princess Lin Ziyu snorted, gloating over her elder brother Lin Zio's plight, for he had no alternative!

Her gaze turned to a young, handsome gentleman not far away, who was looking at her courteously. With a slight bow, Lin Ziyu smiled back, still holding her phone.

The other party was a young talent recommended by the noble circle, with good looks, a good figure, a good personality, and good talents, making him the Five-Good Youth of Imperialism with good family background.

There were no arrogant, rebellious, ignorant, and vulgar types in the noble circles. If there were any signs, they would have been exiled or even stripped of their noble status and demoted to commoners. After all, noble lords had many women, even more lovers, with thriving descendants, and could afford such a high elimination rate, since only one heir was needed to take over the family business. Unless the family was extraordinarily wealthy, a second heir would be redundant.

"I wish you find a satisfactory husband and continue with the business." Chen Fei switched topics, directly stating his purpose, "I need to gather research materials on the soul, both about spells and Alchemy. To facilitate travel to Cangqiong Star, I also want to establish a 'Stargate' here at Cangqiong Star, considering the 'Dimensional Gate' is really inconvenient."

Lin Ziyu asked doubtfully, "The materials are no problem, they can be fully open to you, but I didn't expect you to have something like a 'Stargate.' But can it connect Cangqiong Star and Blue Star?"

Although "Stargate" and "Dimensional Gate" are both gates, their principles are completely different. The method of instantly traversing vast distances has long ceased to be unusual, and there are not just two ways, as the "wormhole cloud" of the Sagali civilization also has a similar function.

"We'll only know if it works after trying it, but there's a good chance it will succeed."

Currently, the "Stargate" is able to successfully connect to the two star systems, No. 1 and No. 2. There is a high possibility of reconstructing the connection between Cangqiong Star and Blue Star. The only aspect to be mindful of is the coordinate calculation, which requires an incredible amount of computation. However, for Chen Fei, who possesses a "planetary-level compute node," it does not seem to be a significant obstacle.

"Alright, I'll arrange your itinerary, wait for my word!"

Lin Ziyu agreed to mediate.

Currently, the two civilized planets are caught in a face-off of cold war, with most of the "Dimensional Gates" closed. Getting Chen Fei from Blue Star to Cangqiong Star via conventional channels is impossible, so a special route must be taken.

Even amid opposition, even when in a state of war, some special channels remain open and are not easily closed. This is a political convention.

After the call ended, the phone was handed over to her maid, Fei Dani.

Under normal circumstances, the attendants around the Princess are usually fixed and not frequently replaced.

Princess Lin Ziyu of the Slan Dynasty walked gracefully towards her waiting suitor not far away and apologized, "I'm very sorry, Jeroni, a friend asked for help, so I was delayed for a moment."

The young man of outstanding talent smiled gently and said casually, "It's alright, my lady."

This was just a minor interlude in their date, not worth keeping in mind.

-

Two days later, Chen Fei received a call from an unfamiliar number.

The other party won Chen Fei's trust just with the keywords "Stargate," "Lin Ziyu," and "Slan Dynasty." Without unnecessary words, they promptly hung up after only providing coordinates and a time frame.

These days, who doesn't have a few hidden aces up their sleeve?

The sovereignties of Blue Star declare war on the Slan Dynasty of Cangqiong Star, yet it doesn't prevent them from planting undercover agents with each other, even including dead soldiers.

That night, Chen Fei, along with Heseman Brown and Dang Wei Jun, disappeared from Socotra Island using the space-related superpower "Space Transmission."

According to the received latitude and longitude coordinates, the three moved directly to a wilderness area on the Mali Peninsula.

The moon was bright, the stars sparse, and the insects chirping mournfully. Surveying the surroundings, there was not a soul in sight, not even a ghostly shadow.

Chen Fei released his spiritual power, and as soon as it extended to two kilometers, he sensed the person waiting for him.

The Psi Skill "Space Transmission" was activated again.

The person stood alone in the wilderness, startled by the sudden apparition of the three people like ghosts.

"'Rookie' Chen Fei? Hmm, it's really you, so why bring others along? Heseman Brown, Dang Wei Jun, are you kidding me?"

Upon recognizing the two beside Chen Fei, the person turned to leave, realizing his original plan only included Chen Fei. Even knowing the identities of Heseman Brown and Dang Wei Jun, he felt he couldn't trust them, and thus wanted to back out.

"Wait, don't leave in such a hurry, do I look like an idiot?" Chen Fei pointed at himself.

"You don't look like an idiot, but neither am I!" the person shook his head, as smart people don't fool other smart people.

"Exactly. If they weren't reliable, why would I bring them along? So you can rest assured," Chen Fei reasoned logically, indicating there was no need for alarm.

"Hmm? Reliable? You've managed to recruit S-Class superpower users? And the one beside you, their rank isn't low either! Just you alone?"

The person immediately suspected deception, implying he was no fool to be easily misled.

"With enough benefit, naturally, there will be a corresponding position," Chen Fei understood the person's worry, suggesting it was unnecessary because anyone he personally brought was trustworthy.

"Rest assured, I now don't even listen to sovereignty, only to 'Rookie'," Heseman Brown chuckled. He had moved his entire family into the "Boundary Pearl" Life Space, which was an almost all-in commitment as a Declaration of Allegiance.

He finished by nudging the nearby Old Party with his elbow.

"..."

The Earth Element Warrior had social difficulties, living alone with no attachments, and thus had nothing much to say.

The person meeting Chen Fei: "..."

Being able to draw in such high-level, high-rank ability users, there must have been a spell cast, right?

Chen Fei urged, "Let's not waste time!"

He didn't have the time or energy to spend on unnecessary persuasion. Those who could understand should do so on their own, and those who still couldn't, would be forced to.

The mission this time was to take Chen Fei to Cangqiong Star. The person hesitated and then said, "Alright, fine! But you must bear full responsibility!"

With a wave of his hand, a four-meter-high portal stood on the ground. He then placed twelve pillar-shaped objects around it, sprinted some distance away, scraped around on the ground, and hoisted over a four-meter-long object.

The slender, entwined design readily revealed the identity of the object to Chen Fei.

"Longinus!?"

Not only Chen Fei, but even the S-Class Space Ability User exclaimed immediately.

Beside them, Dang Wei Jun slightly opened his eyes, clearly, all three recognized the object by name.
