Planet Julang.
In the gorgeous palace, an old man wearing a golden robe sat high on the throne.
The old man had white hair and a white beard, and a kind face. At this time, he looked at Liszt who appeared in his sight, and a pair of originally cloudy eyes revealed a strange color.
"Hahaha, guest from Earth, welcome to our planet."
The old man stood up with a smile to greet him, and enthusiastically walked forward to hug Liszt.
Liszt was stunned. He turned to look at Sha Ji, "Is this the etiquette of your planet?"
Sha Ji smiled and nodded, "Yes."
"Then you've been very rude."
"Why?"
"Because we've never been like this."
"This is etiquette between men."
"All right."
Liszt smiled and introduced himself: "I am Liszt, from the earth. You can call me mage."
The old man smiled and said: "I am Igor, Shaji's father and the owner of this place."
"Igor?" Liszt's heart moved, the name seemed familiar.
At this time, Sha Ji waved his hand to the maid to bring the dishes, "According to earth time, it should be dinner time now. You must be hungry. Let's chat while we eat."
Liszt nodded: "Okay, thank you for your hospitality."
Soon, the extravagant scene was staged again since Wakanda.
At one end of the giant long table, Sha Ji looked at Liszt's victory team uniform and asked, "Would you like to try the clothes here?"
Liszt shook his head, "No, thank you."
Sha Ji nodded and began to introduce the dishes on the table.
"This is Quinnir's egg. It tastes similar to Earth's eggs. I think you will get used to it."
"This is Saxon fibrous tissue, an edible medicinal plant."
“This is Upton meat, it tastes very similar to beef”
The food prepared by Shaji was much more reliable than Chara's. The dishes on the plate were delicious and fragrant, which whetted Liszt's appetite.
However, regarding Kunir and Saxon, Liszt still asked in a demining manner.
"What is Kunir? A chicken from the planet Jurang?" he asked.
Shaji explained: "Kunir is a low-level monster from the planet Julang. Its eggs are fifty times larger than chicken eggs. They are delicious and nutritious."
"Monster egg?"
Liszt raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are there many monsters here?"
Before Shaji could speak, Igor smiled and said: "Planet Zhulang is a planet where monsters and humans coexist."
"Humans and monsters coexist?"
Liszt was curious, "With your strength, it shouldn't be enough to suppress the monster, right?"
Shaji shook his head, "We have the ability to communicate with monsters and appease monsters. On the planet Zhulang, our ability has been increased many times, so we don't need to suppress or defeat monsters to achieve peace."
"Can the monster crisis be solved by just communication and comfort?" Liszt was a little unconvinced.
"Yes, the monsters on Planet Julang are not ferocious. They are not aggressive towards humans just like Makina."
Shaji continued: "There are not many highly intelligent monsters here, they are all guardians of the planet Zhulang.
The low-level monsters have very low IQs. They are raised as poultry or used as labor force in various aspects to maintain the ecology and balance of the planet Julang."
Hearing this, Liszt couldn't help but sigh, "If the earth can be like this, then I can retire early."
Igor smiled and said: "Speaking of the Earth, I don't seem to have thanked you properly for helping Sha Ji return home. This child was forced to leave the planet Julang because of a riot. It is my responsibility as a father."
"Riot?" Lister captured the key reason why Shaji came to Earth.
Sha Ji said: "Yes, even in a peaceful place there will be disputes and killings. Our ability is to tame monsters. Good masters will lead monsters to protect humans, but evil masters will use monsters to become the source of chaos.
So the riot two hundred years ago was a well-planned conspiracy. My mother and brothers and sisters all disappeared in the riot, and I was forced to leave the planet Julang." She looked a little sad.
Liszt expressed sympathy for this, "You are still a princess now, so the riot has been quelled."
"No, they have been spying on us secretly."
Igor said solemnly: "After Sha Ji came back, they were afraid of Machina's power, so they chose to hide. Once they have the power to match Machina, they may launch another riot at any time."
Regarding Igor's expectant look, Liszt did not give the response he wanted. He said: "Machina is very strong, I don't think they will have a chance."
Hearing Liszt's words, Igor's eyes dimmed slightly.
It seems that the giant of light on this earth is not ready to help them. We still need to have a good talk with Sha Ji about this matter.
He glanced at Sha Ji, who lowered his head subconsciously, not daring to look into his father's eyes.
Liszt observed this scene calmly, secretly thinking that this was indeed the case.
With Shaji's character, she would not invite Liszt to Planet Zhulang when monsters might appear on Earth at any time.
All this is Igor's intention, the purpose is to seek Liszt's help to defeat the secret rebel forces.
The old man is quite treacherous.
However, a voice in Liszt's heart told him that this matter would not be so simple.
After dinner, the afterglow of the setting sun shone into the hall, and Igor smiled at Sha Ji and said, "Your friend has come from afar, take him to enjoy the scenery here."
"Okay, Father."
Sha Ji stood up and said to Liszt: "I know you are very interested in the monsters here, let's go."
"You have guessed this."
Liszt nodded slightly to Igor, and then followed Sha Ji and left here.
Walking out of the hall, Macina neighed slightly and raised her hand to let the two of them come into its palm.
"Scared~~"
As Makina's armor slowly closed, the silver dome rose into the sky.
Not long after, the dome crashed into a deep canyon, the armor cracked, and the two jumped out of Mackina's hand.
At the bottom of the deep canyon is an unknown plant that emits brilliant fluorescence.
"This is a plant unique to the planet Zhulang. It can emit light like the starry sky in the dark night, so we call it star orchid. It can help us better tame monsters."
As Sha Ji spoke, she bent down and picked off a star orchid. The little bits of light were floating in the air like pollen, which was beautiful.
"You can try it on the monster named Silbagon." She handed the star orchid to Liszt.
Liszt took the Xinglan and felt the fragrance surrounding his nose. A cool feeling suddenly flooded into his mind. The refreshing effect was countless times stronger than coffee.
"Thank you, I will find a chance to try it."
He didn't use Xinglan rashly because he always felt something was wrong here.
Sha Ji didn't notice anything strange about Liszt. She looked in the direction outside the canyon and said, "There are many interesting monsters around here. I'll take you to see them."
"good."
This time, Saki did not let Machina act as a means of transportation. She signaled the guards here to lower the elevator. The two of them walked up the elevator, and the elevator slowly rose.
The canyon walls are filled with jagged rocks, and strange creatures resembling marmots are crossing the rock walls. They have no reaction to the two people in the elevator, as if they have long been used to it.
As the sky gets darker, the stars in the night sky are more brilliant than those seen on Earth.
The starlight turned into colorful aurora and scattered across the forest. Liszt and Sha Ji stood side by side. The animals and plants he saw along the way made Liszt feel very magical.
In fact, as Sha Ji said, the monsters here are surprisingly docile. They neither attack humans nor are they afraid of humans. Some carnivorous monsters are even more ferocious in front of other animals, but they are not aggressive towards humans. .
For people here, this is a sign of meekness.
But Liszt had another thought in his mind.
In fact, these monsters are not docile, but creatures that have been domesticated long ago.
Their nature is actually ferocious, but they will not attack humans under the instructions of their owners.
Thinking of this, Liszt felt that he was overthinking it.
How is it possible to tame an entire planet's monsters?
"Rustling, rustling~~~"
Suddenly, there was a strange movement in the jungle not far away. The guards of Planet Zhulang flew their aircraft across the night sky one after another, and a group of soldiers came to Sha Ji.
"Your Highness, there is a group of cunning interstellar thieves here. To ensure your safety, we need to escort you away." The leading soldier said respectfully.
