Chapter 464: A Flick of the Finger, A Hundred Years

"Wow, big brother, your cosplay is really something!" The child patted the golden Power Armor on Ye Cang's body.

"This texture, this craftsmanship, it's definitely a 1:1 replica! Awesome!"

"And your makeup skills are so dedicated too! To be able to replicate the Chief Engineer's look so accurately!"

"Awesome!"

The child held up a thumb.

The child's words left Ye Cang feeling both puzzled and amused.

I'm cosplaying myself?

What kind of operation is this?

Before Ye Cang could speak, the child said again, "Wow, big brother, your cosplay is a god-tier restoration, even the expressions are so similar!"

"Are you here for the anime convention? Come on!"

"I'll take you there!"

After saying this, the child returned to their Flying Skateboard.

Ye Cang followed behind.

Not having gone far, the child suddenly turned around.

"Big brother, where is your flying board?"

"I don't have one."

Ye Cang answered truthfully.

The child was dumbfounded.

"No way!"

"Big brother, are you a primitive man?"

"A Flying Skateboard? This thing is a must-have for everyone! You actually don't have one!"

"Don't tell me you actually thought the armor you're wearing is a Power Armor that can fly!"

"I'm really speechless!"

As the child spoke, they took a thumb-sized skateboard out of their pocket and gently pressed the center.

The thumb-sized skateboard instantly expanded, turning into a normal-sized skateboard.

"Don't be so surprised, it's just ordinary Space Folding Technology."

"Here, get on!"

"This is controlled by brainwaves, focus your mind."

Ye Cang didn't speak, just stood on the board.

Following the child's guidance, Ye Cang focused his mind, and the flying board rose steadily.

This drew an exclamation of surprise from the child.

"Not bad, big brother, you've got the flair of a professional player!"

"Let's go!"

After saying this, the child flew forward.

Ye Cang followed closely behind.

The two flew forward, and before long, they arrived at a plaza.

In the very center of the plaza stood a massive statue; the statue towered into the clouds, making it impossible to see who it depicted.

"Who is this?"

Ye Cang stopped and looked up.

The child also stopped.

"Tsk, big brother, how about I take you to the police station to file a report? I really suspect you're a primitive man!"

"This is Chief Engineer Ye!"

"Don't tell me you don't know Chief Engineer Ye!"

"Chief Engineer Ye?" Ye Cang repeated.

"Ye Cang, Chief Engineer Ye! Huaxia Chief Engineer, initiator of the Star Han Expedition, Legion Commander of all legions, savior of Earth!"

When the child said this, their tone was already filled with helplessness.

Furthermore, one of their hands rested on the wristwatch on their other arm.

Ye Cang, however, didn't mind.

"I know Chief Engineer Ye, I just didn't expect him to have so many titles."

Ye Cang wasn't lying; he truly didn't know he had so many titles, he only knew he was indeed the Huaxia Chief Engineer.

The child breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

Not a primitive man, just a slightly behind-the-times cosplayer.

"Where is Chief Engineer Ye now?" Ye Cang suddenly asked.

As soon as this question left his lips, a trace of sadness appeared on the child's face.

"I don't know."

"Many people say the Chief Engineer died, died in the battle against Hua Ye, but I feel the Chief Engineer just went missing; he will definitely come back!"

"One hundred years ago."

"Wait!" Ye Cang interrupted the child, "How many years ago did you say?"

"100 years ago?"

"Yeah!" The child nodded vigorously. "It was 100 years ago, is there a problem? That's what it says in the history books!"

"100 years ago, an evil god named Hua Ye wanted to invade Earth, and the Chief Engineer rushed out of Earth to fight him, eventually disappearing into the dark and deep Universe."

Ye Cang did not take in the rest of what the child said.

A single number was merely echoing in his mind.

100 years.

100 years had actually passed.

Yet for him, he had only spent one hour in the Black Hole.

For Ge Xiaolun, it was also only one year.

But for Earth, it had been a century.

A century is but a snap of the fingers.

He had not returned for a century; no wonder everyone said he was dead.

It was just that he did not know how far the Star Han Expedition had progressed.

What had become of Qing Long and the others?

After thinking for a moment, Ye Cang decided to ask the child about it.

"Do you know how far the Star Han Expedition has progressed now!"

"I do!" the child said, tapping on his wristwatch.

A holographic projection of the Galaxy appeared before the two of them.

After the child manipulated the holographic projection for a moment, he pulled up a brand-new star map.

"See that? This is the latest updated map."

"This is a map of half the Galaxy; three major sectors are already under the command of Huaxia, and three more sectors are currently being conquered in the Expedition."

Ye Cang's eyes lit up.

This speed was quite decent; they had conquered three major sectors in 100 years.

This was much faster than the golden big guy.

Following this trend, the entire Galaxy would be unified in another 100 years.

The goal he had set back then would be realized.

Unify the entire Galaxy and resist the Zerg!

But then again, the Zerg had not appeared in 100 years; one had to say that luck was on Earth's side.

Just as Ye Cang was feeling emotional.

The child suddenly took out a telescope and looked at the sky.

This sudden action made Ye Cang not quite understand.

"What are you doing?"

Facing Ye Cang's inquiry, the child did not speak, only looking at the sky with the telescope.

A full few minutes passed.

Only then did the child put away the telescope.

"What else could I be doing?"

"Watching the Tiangong Fleet!"

"The Tiangong Fleet just returned from collecting minerals from outer space!"

Ye Cang raised an eyebrow.

Returned?

Returned where?

And how did this child know the information that the fleet had arrived?

But before Ye Cang could ask, the child glanced at Ye Cang's wrist.

"Eh? No, I just noticed."

"Where is your wristwatch?"

"How do you not even have a wristwatch? You wouldn't happen to be an unregistered person, would you?!"

Blinking his eyes, Ye Cang shook his head.

"Not an unregistered person."

"I just don't have one."

"Don't worry about that; tell me what's going on with the Tiangong Fleet."

At this moment, the child had already become vigilant.

"Why are you asking about this?"

"I'm just curious, so I'm asking. Why, can't you say? Or do you think I'm suspicious?" Ye Cang said.

"Yes!" the child nodded without hesitation.

"My mom told me that 100 years ago, there were those kinds of human traffickers who would specifically try to get close to people and then kidnap them!"

Bang!

Ye Cang lightly flicked the child on the forehead.

"Don't forget, you were the one who tried to get close to me first."

"I was originally going to go somewhere else."

Reminded by Ye Cang, the child finally realized.

"Uh, forgot, hahaha!"

"I'll tell you about this Tiangong Fleet; honestly, I want to go there when I grow up!"
