Chapter 240
“Dear sister” Six years later, Archie was still the same overly energetic person.
Nyx visited Earth again, and the authorities took it very seriously. However, she refused an official escort, so the authorities notified her friends to host her.
“Let’s eat first, and then we’ll show you around. Earth has changed quite a bit over the years, Archie kept talking, chattering endlessly. Teven found an amusement park we can take Chubby, Sky, and Ash to
Nyx had no objection to the itinerary and nodded. “Alright, let’s wait a moment.”
on
She took out a visual interference device from her Space Button, adjusted it, and put it on.
“Wow.” Archie watched in awe as Nyx instantly transformed into someone else–short hair, a little chubby, unremarkable features, but a comforting look, dressed like an ordinary young Earth woman.
The males followed their matron’s lead, one by one changing their appearance.
Even the cubs wore the devices, turning themselves into human versions of six–year–olds to match Earth’s norms.
The three cubs looked strikingly similar, like triplets.
Archie was dazzled, unable to tell them apart, struggling to wrap his head around it. He couldn’t help but raise his hands toward Nyx in a humble, pleading manner. “Any more, dear sister?”
Nyx couldn’t help but laugh and handed him one. It had become a habit for her to always have many spare items prepared for anything
Seeing others were interested, she took a few more out from the Space Button and distributed them.
By the time they left, the group had all concealed their true appearances, walking on the street without attracting any
attention.
Nyx saw the true state of Earth. Skyscrapers lined the streets, and flying vehicles zipped through the air, while some ground vehicles remained in use, not yet obsolete. The city felt full of technological flair.
In recent years, Earth had made many technological breakthroughs. It was said they had already found a habitable planet within the galaxy and were working on building a space jump device.
But Nyx noticed that the quality of life for people hadn’t improved much.
Medical development was slow, food safety management was poor, and security was chaotic. These issues, which had existed for a long time, had persisted and even worsened.
“Your development direction is slightly off.” Aurelius surveyed his surroundings, taking everything in before speaking to Bruce. “To become a space–faring civilization, you must first improve everyone’s lives and step into a more civilized society
Bruce nodded, acknowledging the point. They had indeed been too eager for results.
Aurelius gave detailed development suggestions, which Bruce carefully noted.
Nearby, the three cubs listened attentively to their father.
Archie stared at their innocent faces and found it a bit funny. He thought, Could they even understand?”
He then suggested, “Enough of that boring stuft I will take you to the amusement park.”

Chapter 210
Upon hearing this, the three cubs slowly turned their heads to look at Archie.
Actually, they weren’t that interested in the amusement park, but Archie looked like he really wanted to go there.
They thought, ‘Never mind, let’s not ruin it for him; we can play along.”
Even on a weekday, the amusement park was packed.
Archie had been here many times before, so he led the way, acting as a tour guide with ease.
After trying a few easy, regular attractions, he took the cubs in front of a world–famous roller coaster.
“Are you brave enough to ride?” Archie grinned mischievously, especially directing the question at Chubby.
He remembered how embarrassed he’d felt last time when the little snake had been so scared, and he really wanted to get back at Chubby by seeing him cry in fear.
Nearby, other visitors couldn’t hold back anymore. “How can you encourage kids to ride such a dangerous ride? What if they get scared?”
“Parents these days are so unreliable.”
“What if something happens? The medical fees could be a fortune.”
“Look at this ride; it’s not for kids.
“Even adults end up crying, vomiting, or too scared to get up afterward. And he dares to encourage kids to ride it?”
Being scolded repeatedly, Archie lowered his head in guilt, reflecting on whether he’d gone too far in trying to get revenge on a six–year–old.
Chubby looked up at the massive roller coaster, assessed it, and figured it wasn’t nearly as thrilling as his usual simulated combat training. It felt far less intense.
Chubby thought maybe Archie wanted to ride but was too scared, so he wanted Chubby to go along.
Chubby decided to be nice to Archie, so he nodded indulgently. I’ll ride with you.”
Sky and Ash also agreed to go with Archie.
Archie vaguely sensed something was off, but couldn’t figure it out.
He glanced at Nyx, who nodded, signaling it was okay, so he took the three cubs to queue.
As soon as they stepped into the roller coaster area, the sounds of visitors screaming and gasping filled the air, and the dazzling lights everywhere made it feel like they were in the vastness of space.
The roller coaster’s theme was intergalactic travel. Although it didn’t come close to the real experience, it was enough of a gimmick to draw in more visitors
“Here, put on these glasses, Archie instructed the three cubs to wear the special glasses handed out by the staff, which enhanced the feeling of realism and immersion.
The cubs fiddled with them to know the basic mechanism, realizing it wasn’t particularly advanced technology.
Still, they cooperated and put on the glasses, securing their safety restraints.

Chapter 240
The seats gently shook, signaling that the roller coaster was starting,
Suddenly, Archie felt a bit of regret. He’d been to this amusement park so many times and had never dared to try this ride.
This was his first time..
If he was scared, then imagine how a six–year–old would feel
But there was no turning back now, they couldn’t just get ull.
“If you’re really scared, just close your eyes, Archie said apologetically to the three cubs.
“It’s okay; don’t be too scared,” Chubby said, patting his shoulder. “We’re here with you.”
Even if the roller coaster malfunctioned, they were confident they could get Archie out safely.
Archie felt something was strange about what Chubby said. But there was no time to think, as the next moment, they were hit by intense weightlessness, the roller coaster plummeting nearly vertically.
Archie instantly screamed for help. A faint smile appeared on Chubby’s face. Last time they met, when he had wrapped his tail around Archie, he had screamed just as badly.
The three minutes on the roller coaster felt like a lifetime to Archie. When the ride finally stopped, he was so weak he could barely move, and had to be helped up by the three cubs.
He stumbled a few steps before collapsing onto a nearby bench.
“Did you cry?” Chubby struck him again with a sharp comment.
Archie looked up blankly, meeting the eyes of the three cubs.
During the ride, he had been so immersed in fear that he hadn’t been paying attention to the cubs reactions.
But now that he looked at them, they all looked calm, with rosy cheeks and steady breathing. Not only had they not cried, they didn’t seem to have any emotional distress at all.
The contrast was stark, and many people around them started whispering. They thought. This guy is even weaker than the kids.
Archie wiped the tears off his face, feeling like crying even more. His revenge plan had completely backfired.
The only thing he was glad about now was that he had worn the visual interference device. At least his face wasn’t exposed, and no one knew who he was.
“Where’s mom?” The three cubs looked around but couldn’t see Nyx, nor were the fathers anywhere in sight.
“They’re over by the haunted house,” their friends laughed at Archie while answering the cubs‘ question.
The amusement park was too crowded, and almost every ride had a long line, so everyone decided to spread out. The haunted house had fewer people, so Nyx had already gone in with her mates.
The cubs had to go find Nyx. But before that, they thought they could get her some treats.
“There’s ice cream over there.” The three cubs walked side by side toward the ice cream stand, lining up. “Mom likes grape flavor
The vendor was surprised, and people around them couldn’t help but comment,
“Aww, how sweet!”

“Are they triplets:”
They even know what flavor their mom likes!”
“Such lucky kids!”

Not far away, a man in a mascot costume was wandering around, eyeing them. He thought. Triplets are too obvious. With so many people around, it would be hard to kidnap them.
After lingering for a while, the man changed targets.
He turned around, and the three cubs all stared at his back. From the moment they were targeted, they had noticed something strange about this man.
The cubs exchanged a glance and quietly followed him.
The man in the mascot costume had set his sights on a little girl, around ten years old.
Looking around and confirming that no adults were with her, he quickly approached and took out some candy laced with something from his pocket.
The little girl, not wary of the adult dressed as a bear, cheerfully took the candy and began unwrapping it.
“Don’t eat it.” Just as the man was about to succeed, he was suddenly interrupted. Furious, he looked in the direction of the voice and saw it was the triplets from earlier.
He thought, “How did they know the candy is unsafe?”
But it didn’t matter to him anymore. He dismissed the thought and grinned menacingly as he walked toward them. “Little brats, just who do you think you are, sticking your noses into my business?”
