After entering the mission world and before he even had the chance to wake up, Gu Bai’s mind was immediately invaded by the plot, rus.h.i.+ng in like an overbearing flood. He didn’t stop it. If he did, it may result in another situation where he had to go without a plot like before. Therefore, he could only patiently receive it and pray that there wouldn’t be any accidents.

The world this time was different from any of the others he had encountered. It couldn’t be distinguished by ancient or modern times, because it was an extremely technologically advanced future, an interstellar world.

The original host was called Qiao Qi, who was only 18 years old this year. His background was not complicated: a n.o.ble young master to a fallen family.

He was merely a young master from a family in dire straits. However, he adored the First Admiral Han Lijun, who essentially existed as the Empire’s male G.o.d.

The Han family was a well-known military family in the Interstellar Empire. For centuries, they had been the backbone of the Empire. Each generation’s successor would directly inherit the t.i.tle of Grand Duke , they were one of the most powerful families in the Empire.

Han Lijun was precisely this generation’s successor. Not only was he handsome but, more importantly, his spiritual power was also first-rate. He was the male G.o.d in the eyes of countless girls and boys in the interstellar empire.

However, in the face of such admiration and pursuit, Han Lijun himself didn’t care. He was still very young and his greatest wish was to drive out the Zergs and protect the Empire. Aside from that, he was utterly indifferent to love affairs and rejected a large number of pursuers.

Naturally, among these pursuers was the original host. But unlike the others, the original host did not give up. He held onto the idea that as long as Han Lijun was not married, he still had a chance and looked for every opportunity to get close and express himself.

But his efforts did not pay off. Instead, at this time, another girl got Han Lijun’s attention before him.

This girl was Nangong Xuan, who was also a little n.o.ble lady.

From a young age, although Nangong Xuan was a n.o.ble lady, because of her low spiritual strength, poor physique, and her rather average appearance, she did not attract much attention in the Imperial College.

Like dust, she didn’t stand out, and her character was timid and cowardly. However, such a person like Nangong Xuan suddenly changed after waking up one day. She became confident and intelligent.

Moreover, she knew a lot of ancient texts. She could even translate the long extinct ancient texts that archaeologists couldn’t translate. At the same time, she could also cook many foods that have never been seen before.

Everyone was surprised at her change. Even her parents thought that their humble daughter had become enlightened. But no one could have imagined that inside this body the soul had already been changed.

This soul came from the ancient and wild mother planet – Earth. Unlike the originally timid Nangong Xuan, she was a strong and confident woman.

Even Imperial Admiral Han Lijun, who had always been known for his strictness, admired her a lot. When she invited him to escort the experts from the Imperial College’s Department of Archaeology to the mother planet earth to explore an ancient tomb site for archaeological work, he painfully agreed.

Everyone in the interstellar had already regarded the two as a CP. While they enviously wondered if the cold and serious Admiral Han was actually moved by this intelligent and talented girl, the original host was devastated.

But the only good news was that although Admiral Han had a different att.i.tude toward Nangong Xuan, he didn’t seem to like her in that way, so the original host thought that he still had hope.

In order to capture his beloved admiral, the original host found a way to become one of the archaeologists sent to the legendary Mother Planet tomb.

The Mother Planet was a very important existence to the entirety of interstellar Earthlings.

Tens of thousands of years ago, as a result of an unforeseen planetary impact, most of the human beings on earth had perished and nearly went extinct. After countless hards.h.i.+ps, the remaining humans migrated to a planet outside the Milky Way galaxy to settle and repopulate.

At that time, in the entire Interstellar, humans were the weakest existence and were bullied by the rest of the beings on the planet. However, the heavens had compa.s.sion for humanity.

Compared to the other beings on the planet with strong bodies, humans from earth, despite having weak bodies, had an extremely intelligent mind. The earthen environment gave humanity the gene with the highest potential.

After a series of changes and evolution, humans from earth were once again at the top of the food chain. Humanity’s potential was irreplaceable and incomparable to any other species on the planet.

It’s just that, over time, everything about their Mother Planet had become submerged in the long river of history.

Information about the Mother Planet was lost as early as the initial migration. Tens of thousands of years later, humans knew little about what Earth used to be. They were eager to know about their ancestors who had lived on the Mother Planet. Lost culture was full of mysterious charm.

Therefore, apart from powerful soldiers, being an archaeologist was a very popular and admired profession in the interstellar world.

This ancient tomb site was accidentally discovered by an archaeology student of the Imperial College. Once the news broke out, it attracted a lot of attention.

As the ones who discovered this and had the most professional instructors in the Empire, the Imperial College naturally undertook this archaeological task.

Yet, with Han Lijun being the other young soldier appointed by the Emperor to escort and protect everyone, excitement for the archaeological expedition once again reached a climax, attracting the attention of the media and all the people of the Interstellar.

It should be known that Han Lijun was an Admiral who guarded the Empire. For the Admiral to personally escort and protect the archaeologist was a great honor. Moreover, this was also the first time that Han Lijun appeared in the spotlight outside the Imperial military parades. How could this not be exciting?!
