At the exit of a True God secret zone invested and developed by the Gates family in the deep sea region of the Cosmic Sea, a stout young man and a teenager appeared at the same time.

"Young Master, Mr. Mikko, you're finally out. You've been exploring this secret zone for a whole month. If you were two days late, I would've sent someone in to look for you. " A white-bearded steward came to greet them. His name was Ford, and he was the adopted son that Alfred had raised. In the past, he had always assisted Alfred in managing the affairs of the Gates clan, and now he was the chief steward of the Gates clan.

"It's fine, it's just a low-rank True God secret zone. Mi Ke's and my combat strength has already reached the level of a medium-rank True God. As long as we don't encounter anyone with combat strength above fifth-rank, we can handle them on our own. Even if we encounter a fifth-rank, we can fight them together. "After three years of cultivation, Faust was no longer the timid short fatty he used to be. He was now nearly 1.9 meters tall. Although his body was still fat, this form was actually just to fool others, pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger.

The biggest difference from three years ago was that he had grown a moustache. He was not even twenty years old, but with the moustache, he looked ten years older in an instant. In his own words, he looked more mature and masculine now, which made it easier for him to attract girls.

As for Mikko, he was no longer the shy kid from three years ago. At thirteen years old, his voice had officially changed, and he had grown a lot taller. Three years ago, he was just a skinny little guy. Now, he was 1.6 meters tall, slender, and handsome. In a few years, if he were to grow a little taller and grow his hair longer, he would probably become a handsome man like Phaser, who could move the hearts of thousands of girls.

In the past few years, not only did he not slack off in his cultivation, but he also learned all kinds of knowledge from the various teachers Faust had invited. Moreover, with his terrifying IQ and god-like abilities, he had become an honorary guest of the Gates family.

In the past three years, he had helped the Gates family successfully design many large-scale investment plans, and helped the Gates family break through the economic attacks of several other major families. He had also successfully dealt a heavy blow to the Koch family, and had also beautifully stopped the Fallor family in several projects. This allowed the Gates family to completely emerge from its previous influence, and once again solidified its position as the second wealthiest family in the Cosmic Sea. Even the Faller clan, after suffering a few blows, had disappeared without a trace. They no longer dared to act against the Gates clan. On the other hand, the Koch Family had completely fallen into desolation, and was about to drop out of the ranks of the first-rate families.

Although Mi Ke was young, no one in the Gates clan dared to look down on him. All of this was earned through his own efforts. Even the butler, Ford, respectfully addressed him as Sir.

"Young Master, you've been exploring the secret plane for so long. You must have gained a lot, right?" Ford asked with a smile. He could tell that Faust and Mikko were in a good mood.

"This is an ancient mystic realm. The owner of the mystic realm was an ancient pharmacist. We spent some time recording and translating her notes. However, the effort was worth it, because the prescription she wrote down might be able to cure Mi Ke 'er's eyes. It's just that there are a few special herbs that humans might not have in the Cosmic Sea, "Faust explained with slight regret.

"It doesn't matter. In three months at most, Brother Gu Ding will be back. When that time comes, we can go into the Grand Cosmic Sea to look around." On the other hand, Mi Ke Ke did not feel depressed at all. When he thought about how the three-year deadline was approaching, his mood became more and more cheerful.

"If the captain sees us now, he probably won't be able to recognize us." Faust laughed, patting his belly. "It's been three years. Lily and the others must have changed. I'm really looking forward to seeing them again."

Due to the restrictions imposed by the Federal Government and the absence of Neptune, the messages sent between Liliath and her team would be intercepted by Skynet. Therefore, in the past few years, everyone didn't know much about each other. They could only occasionally see who caused some trouble or did something on the news. However, such reports became fewer and fewer as the Gu Ding Pirate Crew disbanded.

Cosmic Sea, Seabed Forbidden Zone, a special training base in a certain attached space.

A young man who was about two meters tall and had a buzz cut stood proudly. He was bare-chested, revealing his extremely smooth muscles. His body was covered in all kinds of scars, at least a hundred of them.

His three-dimensional facial features, dark golden beard, and a three-centimeter-long scar below his left eye made him look incomparably valiant.

He held out his hand, and a purple-gold flying dagger automatically floated and rotated in his palm. "Robert, help me practice my agility again today. I'll only use one flying dagger. Today, you can try using three lightspeed guns."

"Alright, but I have a request. You can't leave scars on your body when I injure you." Opposite the young man stood a beautiful blonde woman. She was 1.8 meters tall and had a perfect face and figure. She was dressed in silver armor and looked very heroic.

"But I said that every time I lose, no matter who my opponent is, I'll leave a scar so that I can remember it. For the past three years, I've challenged countless powerhouses. Now it's getting harder and harder to meet opponents. It's also because of this that I keep improving, "the young man insisted.

"No scars. I don't want the captain to come back and ask about the scars on your body, only to find out that I left them on you. We're partners. If the captain finds out that I hurt you, he'll be sad, "Robert explained very seriously.

"Then I'll look for someone else. After all, this is a branch of the Mechanical Tribe. There are many other powerhouses here." Dockett was still unwilling to break his own rules.

"Don't look for anyone else! The other Mechanical Tribe members don't have human emotions and don't know when to stop. You'll be killed. "Robert blocked Dockett's way.

"If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have brought you around to learn human behavior. You're becoming more and more like a woman now. How troublesome …" Dockett was a little upset.

"Are we partners?" Robert questioned.

"Of course it is." Dockett couldn't deny this point.

"The captain said that partners should take care of each other. What you're doing now is extremely irresponsible and will cause harm to yourself. So, you must listen to me this time. I'll practice with you. No scars! If you don't agree, I'll have to use the move that Liliath taught me … "Robert looked at Dockett very seriously.

"That b * tch Liliath taught you that move!!!" Dockett yelled with a face full of indignation. "Despicable woman!"

"Now give me an answer!" Robert continued coldly.

"Alright …" Dockett thought for a long time. In the end, he lowered his arrogant head.
