"It's the human evolved beings, they're finally here!" Upon seeing that group of people, Steve could not keep from shouting in excitement, "I'm here!" Come and save me!"

Unfortunately, the group outside didn't notice Steve calling for help, and the instruments in their hands locked onto the lake in an instant. Seeing this, Steve was shocked and sobered up immediately. He was now in a different dimension, so they were obviously unable to see him.

What do I do now? Steve wondered.

Even though the screen in front of him could change the scene being portrayed according to his thoughts, it could not transport him out. In other words, he was trapped!

At the same time, Collic, who was at the bottom of the lake, had also felt the ten powerful sources of level-one evolved beings' energies emanating from outside the lake.

"Such a powerful wave of energy! It must mean that the human evolved beings are here." Collic was still not willing to give up. After all, the demon was about to kill Steve and take its treasure back!

However, Steve had suddenly disappeared! Even Collic couldn't find him. Moreover, the team of human evolved beings had just arrived, so it could not stay any longer.

"F*ck! F*ck! F*ck!" Even releasing the string of profanities was unable to appease Collic's anger. Sensing that the 10 people outside had just rushed into the lake, it did not dare linger any longer, but instead found the underground river, escaping as fast as possible.

"Collic, don't think about escaping!"

"How dare you cause trouble to the humans! You're looking for death!"

The small team of 10 evolved beings chased after him immediately, yelling all the way.

Although Collic fled unwillingly this time, it was determined to find other opportunities to kill Steve and take back the treasure in the future.

"I must kill him next time!" Collic roared angrily.

...

At this point, the immediately danger had disappeared and the lake had turned calm once again. However, Steve, who was still in the mysterious dimension, was not at all happy. This was because he had realized that he was trapped and could not get out!

How do I get out? Steve wondered, as he took out the seven-colored egg that had guided him here in the first place. He then put the seven-colored egg in front of the screen, yet nothing changed.

"It seems like the only option now is to walk in further and explore more," Steve said calmly to himself.

He looked back at the deep pa.s.sage, seeing floating energys lamps that were hung on its golden metallic walls. The lights of these energy lamps were not produced by burning gas or electricity, but rather by an energy that Steve had never experienced before.

The pa.s.sage reached all the way inside, but he was unsure as to where it would lead. Regardless, other than going deeper inside, Steve saw no other way out.

...

At that moment, not long after Collic had left, the s.p.a.ce above the huge lake suddenly split open, a beautiful woman emerging from it. This beautiful woman's clothes were very ordinary.

In fact, she was dressed like a normal housewife. She was even holding a kitchen knife in her hand! But, her appearance was still amazing. Even though she wasn't wearing any makeup-less, she exuded a tempting and mature charm, her every move filled with natural appeal.

Her eyes were as beautiful as the night sky, and she had a sharp chin and a dainty face. She was like a fairy, who could touch the hearts of all.

Her exquisite figure was also full of curves, especially her big and perky b.u.t.t! Young girls would not be able to compete with such a huge and charming temptation! Simply her appearance, her exquisite figure, and her charming temperament would be enough to cause most people to be unable to restrain themselves.

"The Star of Hope's energy has clearly appeared here. Why did it suddenly disappear?" The beautiful woman asked, a frown appearing on her face.

If Steve were here, he would've known that, when the egg glowed, it meant that energy had been flowing out of it. At the same time, he would have been shocked by the powerful beings' strength, which revealed that they were the most powerful beings on Blue Star!

"Magic Eye of Time!" The beautiful woman called out, her eyes suddenly turning red.

As she looked around, time began rewinding, and everything that had happened in the huge lake was repeating clearly in front of her eyes. However, unlike with Collic's energy sensor, time was really rewinding in front of the beautiful woman's eyes!

"The human youth and Collic... It was he who stole the Star of Hope in the first place! I didn't expect the little monster to become a level-one mutated demon in such a short time." The beautiful woman observed everything that had happened.

She could clearly see Steve being chased, then saw that he had fled into the lake. She then watched the seven-colored egg on Steve's neck light up.

"That's it! The Star of Hope! So, it's with the fellow!" The beautiful woman was excited. However, just as the seven-colored egg lit up and its light wrapped around Steve, he disappeared without a trace!

"He disappeared? Where did he go?" The beautiful woman's face changed.

Following that, she continued trying several times in a row, but could not find any further traces of Steve.

"He should be nearby, so how is it that I cannot find him?" The beautiful woman looked pale.

It was understandable for Collic to be unable to find Steve. However, with her strength, she should be able to find this little fellow, who was not even an original being!

"The Star of Hope is amazing indeed." The corners of the beautiful woman's mouth turned up. "But, it will be easy to get the Star of Hope back, now that I know it's with him!"

Although the beautiful woman was laughing, her red eyes were filled with blood and war, as if the devil itself was laughing over a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. She was determined. She would do anything to get the Star of Hope, no matter the cost!

...

At this point, Steve realized that there were some pictures on the walls around him. The creatures in the pictures were similar to human beings.

Some battle pictures were included. Within these, when the creatures would enter battle mode, a golden eye would appear on their foreheads. Then, from these golden eyes, attacks would issue forth!

Also, the creatures in the pictures could control the universe, and their genetic evolutions were different from present-day humans'. These creatures, by simply lifting their hands, could raise a whole mountain range and even summon a meteor shower in the sky! As such, the pictures portrayed them fighting against all kinds of strange, dark creatures.

Steve was sure that he had never seen anything like these strange creatures before! They were very different from magical beasts.

Steve felt a strange creepy sense of evil, while he was looking at the strange creatures on the drawings. They were also different from demons, as they emitted evil and darkness from the inside out. Even if they were just pictures, Steve still felt a sense of horror filling him.

What are these things? Steve's teeth were chattering.

In the picture, the dark organisms and three-eyed beings were engaged in a battle, the scale of which was earth-shattering. Finally, the dark organisms had managed to occupy most of the regions.

But, in order to survive, the three-eyed beings made large quant.i.ties of s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps and left their original world. This was because the mainland, where they had once lived, had been destroyed by the dark organisms and had sunk to the bottom of the sea.

The pictures on the wall portrayed a long war history, which seemed to contain many large battles. These battles stretched from the land and sea to outer s.p.a.ce, then continued on to the civilization's final defeat and escape.
