Chapter 336: Chapter 271 Can’t Hold On _1
```
Destroying a planet was impossible; Zheng Yichen simply did not possess such overwhelming individual strength. What he did in that world was less about destroying a planet or a world, but more about destroying the power source and core chip of that world.
Essentially, he caused a machine, known as a world, to lose power and become functionally paralyzed.
"Could these two things turn our world into something like that?" Ahn Qi pursued, goods were manageable, but if the nature of these goods was too terrifying, even if they could advance the Ahn family’s ascension project by a great measure; considering the possible consequences...
From a woman’s perspective, those chunks of flesh were just too ugly!
"At most, it would turn some people into those flesh chunks. Whatever you’ve come up with on your end, remember to show me," Zheng Yichen said.
"Of course." Ahn Qi willingly overlooked the underlying meaning in Zheng Yichen’s words. By saying this, Zheng Yichen meant to utilize the resources of the Ahn family to achieve his own ends, but if the thing was truly that special, it did not matter.
Without Zheng Yichen, the Ahn family definitely would not be able to obtain such a thing.
"It’s getting late; how about resting at my place tonight?"
"...No, thank you. There’s someone waiting for me at home." Zheng Yichen shook his head, left the items behind, and departed.
Ahn Qi looked at the two items in the box, promptly closed it, grabbed the computer from the bed, and headed to the garage. She drove out quickly, found Zheng Yichen on the street, and said, "Get in the car. I need to find someone who specializes in researching these things and I can drop you off at home on the way."
Zheng Yichen raised an eyebrow slightly at the box Ahn Qi had placed in the car, "Aren’t you worried about having nightmares?"
"I wouldn’t, even if it was a severed head that you brought. But these things..." She shook her head and did not continue. She didn’t think Zheng Yichen would harm her, yet having those things in her house overnight, considering the condition of the world of Flesh she had seen on the footage, didn’t sit well with her.
It wasn’t about fearing an incident; she just couldn’t keep them at her house.
"Sister... have you been taking the wrong medication lately?" Ahn Ke, perplexed, looked at Ahn Qi who had come to find her, even removing her homely glasses. Ahn Qi never used to come to her for anything, but now she was supposedly planning to spend the night? Just like normal sisters who sleep close together?
We’re no longer little girls of ten or eight years old; surely one of us had an issue. She went on to say, "I can give you a thorough check-up."
"No thanks, I wouldn’t want to end up with something missing or something extra. I have something for you to look at."
Ahn Ke picked up her homely glasses from the side, put them on to cover her disagreeable eyes, "Am I to understand that you’ve come to me to propose a new collaboration?"
Ahn Qi shook her head, "There’s no need for any extra interpretation – that’s exactly it."
As she spoke, she opened the box Zheng Yichen had handed over to her, allowing Ahn Ke to glance at the footage she had seen earlier, and then she saw her fifth sister getting excited, "Is there really such a marvelous thing? It is too much for you to handle alone, sister, and even the Ahn family cannot manage it!!"
"This world is a low-environment world," Ahn Qi quickly stated. It was undeniable that Zheng Yichen was powerful in a high-environment setting, but no matter how mighty a being, in a low-environment world their strength was not as assured; technological weapons were more potent in such worlds.
Ahn Qi worried that some in the Ahn family were too arrogant.
"Hehehe... Sister, you may well have adaptability to Alien Phenomenon, but you lack some other forms of adaptability," Ahn Ke chuckled softly, causing Ahn Qi to shudder, "Do you know why the Ahn family dares to carry out the ascension project? Even believing the plan can succeed?"
Ahn Qi wanted to ask more, but Ahn Ke closed the box, "Get some rest first. Tomorrow I’ll take you to a place."
"Where?"
"To my room. I’ll explain slowly."

"..." Watching her sister try to get close to her, Ahn Qi once again felt the discomfort rising within her. After taking a shower and changing into pajamas, she hesitated at the door to Ahn Ke’s bedroom, feeling like a little girl. Clicking open the door, Ahn Qi saw Ahn Ke wearing a black camisole nightgown, flipping through a book.
Ahn Ke put the book she was holding onto the nightstand, "Come, let’s sleep early."
At night, Ahn Qi lay awake with her eyes fixed on the ceiling, while Ahn Ke held her very closely, causing the corners of her eyes to twitch lightly from time to time. Ahn Ke hadn’t lied to her, she had indeed told Ahn Qi where they were going before they went to sleep, and had made Ahn Qi aware of some things she had either overlooked or not paid much attention to before.
She pinched the eye on her earlobe, took a breath, and closed her eyes. Regardless of how complex or uncomfortable her feelings were, she knew she couldn’t escape tonight, so she might as well sleep.
The next day, Ahn Qi woke up early, but Ahn Ke was sound asleep, her hand pressed against Ahn Qi’s chest. Extending her hand to push away the palm, Ahn Qi gave Ahn Ke a shove, "Time to get up."
"Happy Birthday." Waking up, Ahn Ke caressed Ahn Qi’s waist, her fingers eventually resting on a certain spot, "You should work out this area more. It will make your body more flexible and improve your figure."
Ahn Qi felt goosebumps rise on the spot where Ahn Ke’s finger pressed.
During breakfast, Ahn Qi noticed that Ahn Ke seemed to really enjoy having someone to eat with, even more so than at family gatherings.
Ahn Qi felt even more uncomfortable. After breakfast, they took the box and drove to the place Ahn Ke had mentioned the night before.
In a nearby parking lot, Ahn Qi recalled that her subordinates had reported about this place and she had seemed interested in it, but then had not paid much attention afterwards.
"If this place is so special, then I should have been very interested in it," Ahn Qi said somewhat unnaturally. This unease stemmed from the Dusk Cathedral, a resistance to the unknown.
Ahn Ke explained, "It’s normal, you don’t have Dusk’s adaptability. Knowing about the Dusk Cathedral won’t draw too much of your attention. Like me, I don’t have Alien Phenomenon adaptability, so I can’t deeply engage with it."
She had researched Alien Phenomena, so she never thought of rashly encountering them. Even if she used automated equipment or was taken there by someone, she wouldn’t be able to wake up quickly. And for those without adaptability to Alien Phenomena, direct contact could lead to a very high rate of distortion!
"Is this some kind of suggestive influence?"
Ahn Ke shook her head, "People without Dusk adaptability will have their memories of Dusk fade, even if they are aware of it."
Ahn Qi was silent for a moment before asking, "How many in the Ahn family know about this?"
"Not many. It’s like Alien Phenomenon adaptability—if you don’t have it, knowing more doesn’t mean much. It’s like now, because I brought you here, you’ll pay extra attention to Dusk, but that’s just it."
Ahn Qi looked at the distant Dusk Cathedral, frowning slightly, "Then isn’t my coming here meaningless?"
Ahn Ke said with a smile, "It’s not entirely meaningless. Fading impression is not the same as disappearing. You never wondered why your collaborator could return from the Alien Phenomenon world. Now you will know."
The relationship with Dusk? Ahn Qi felt very uncomfortable with this ’asymmetric’ situation, things had gone beyond her expectations, "Did the family already know about his situation?"
"Perhaps, but even if they knew before, it wouldn’t have attracted much attention from the family. There are not a few people like him. Some things I haven’t reported additionally, but this matter is different now." Ahn Ke said, her expression taking on a different meaning, "My sister, you are really lucky."
She believed that Ahn Qi’s collaborator wasn’t a Dusk mercenary, but a Proxy Agent. It was very fortunate to meet a Proxy Agent without much understanding of Dusk. But as she knew, Proxy Agents were high-risk professionals.
However, judging from Zheng Yichen’s record, he had made a name for himself among Proxy Agents. The family had fully confirmed this, and it was highly likely that Ahn Qi’s unique collaborator would be taken by them, although if the collaborator felt that Ahn Qi was a good partner, there was still room for negotiation.
"Let’s go inside, resolve this matter quickly, and then we can prepare a birthday celebration for you afterward."
"No need; I’ve already decided to call off the matter." Ahn Qi shook her head, today could have been a day worth celebrating, but now she had no mood for her birthday anymore.
Ahn Qi didn’t want to celebrate her birthday anymore, but Ahn Ke seemed very concerned about it, "It won’t take up much time."
