Yahan scoffed and silently insulted, 'I come from a high-tech society where people can fly in the sky with airplanes and even go to space. I've seen all sorts of amazing things. If you were on our planet, your eyeballs would really get crushed by others. What's the use of strength? Can it even withstand missiles?' Suddenly, he stopped and his face turned grim. 'It's hard to say whether missiles can destroy these creatures. The people here are tough and resilient, and they have immense strength despite such gravity. If it was in Earth's environment, they would be like superheroes.' As he thought to himself, Yahan forcefully swallowed the meat in his mouth and then haphazardly stuffed several grape-shaped fruits into his mouth, crunching the skin and seeds, swallowing them. Then, with a fierce expression, he thought, 'If all else fails, then nuclear bombs. Drop a few nuclear bombs, and everything turns to ashes, clean and clear.'

As long as the words regarding borrowing are spoken, a two-way contract can be established. The contract is two-way and once established, it is permanent. Borrowing power comes at a cost. For every time he borrows someone else's power, he needs to fulfill an absolute request from others without violating his own interests and bottom line. "So... this is your reason for hiding from your creditors with me?" Gloria looked at Bai Lin, who was lying in front of her, with a smile on her face. "Last time, you borrowed my alchemy ability.

Her requests are the same as yours." (ps: This book lacks all shame and will try not to poison the farmers.┑( ̄Д ̄)┍)
