Almost at the same time, the young man who walked out of the rain also discovered Deng Shentong.

Caught off guard by hearing his own name, Barlot Kulim's cold expression cracked and he said in disbelief, "Mr. Deng?"

Deng Shentong reacted after a moment, showing a brilliant smile and greeting him: "Senior Kulim, long time no see. I didn't expect to meet you here."

Zhang Yi frowned and couldn't help asking, "Captain, who is this...?"

Deng Shentong touched his nose and muttered quietly, "I didn't expect to meet so many classmates."

But think about it, those who can study in prestigious universities must come from rich or noble families.

After the apocalypse, their survival rate has greatly increased, and they hold important positions, so it is not surprising that Deng Shentong frequently meets his classmates.

Unlike Deng Shentong's natural greeting, Kulim seemed a little embarrassed, and his pale face became even paler.

He didn't have a good relationship with Deng Shentong during his college years, at least that's what he thought.

Before Deng Shentong came to the college, he had always been at the top of the class with excellent grades and was sought after by countless people.

But when this true prodigy arrived at the college, the situation immediately changed.

Deng Shentong is handsome, smart, and cheerful. He shines like a holy angel and instantly attracts everyone's attention.

Not only does he have good interpersonal relationships, he also performs very well in his subjects. Even Kulim's most respected tutor can't help but praise him.

Once he became Deng Shentong's foil, Kulim naturally held a grudge.

At that time, he walked up to the young apprentice and challenged him to a duel viciously.

Deng Shentong was surprised for a moment, then agreed generously.

Kulim never expected that this seemingly spoiled young man was actually extremely proficient in swordsmanship.

When the gorgeous, elegant, slender sword stopped at his neck, he knew that he was completely defeated by Deng Shentong.

He still couldn't forget that powerful and terrifying opponent who, after defeating him, stretched out his hand to him and said:

"Thank you, Senior Kulim."

Deng Shentong's long silver hair sparkled in the sun, making it difficult to look directly at his smile as dazzling as the sun.

Kulim took the slender white hand and stood up.

At that moment, even he himself thought that under the halo of Deng Shentong, he was as ugly as a rat in the gutter.

However, all these were just Kulim's inner thoughts. Although the two had been secretly competing with each other during college, Deng Shentong only regarded him as his most familiar opponent.

It is not a bad thing to have such an excellent opponent. Deng Shentong was still happy to see Kulin again.

"...Dun." Kulim calmed down and returned to his serious expression.

"I am now a lieutenant commander of the Columbia Navy, and I have been ordered to inspect your ship. Tell me, what is your purpose for going out to sea this time!"

"We received a call for help from the trapped citizens of Huaxu Country. Among them is a high-ranking official from our country, so we were ordered to bring them back to the country."

Deng Shentong said without blinking.

"Senior official?" Kulim sneered, "You Huaxu people haven't changed at all..."

However, what Deng Shentong says always makes people believe it to a certain extent.

Kulim thought to himself that if it was Deng Shentong, who knows how powerful he would be when the end of the world comes, and it is not impossible that he would seriously injure the sea monster.

Deng Shentong always has the strength to make people around him inexplicably deify him.

The thought of having to retreat in front of the injured sea monster made Kulim feel even more tormented.

At this moment, he wished he had never seen Deng Shentong again.

It must be said that it was a sad feeling for the proud Kulim to see his former rival becoming so powerful.

He waved a few of his men down to check the ship.

Soon, the men came back and reported, "Major, they are indeed just some ordinary refugees."

Kulim glanced at Deng Shentong and knew that he was no match for this man now.

Rather than bringing humiliation upon yourself, it is better to out of sight and out of mind.

"Well, it seems that there is nothing suspicious about you. I will take my people away."

Deng Shentong suddenly remembered something. He called Kulim and said, "I met Auburn on the way here. Are you still in touch with him?"

"I..." Kulim's expression became excited for a moment when he heard the name, but he quickly returned to indifference and said, "No."

Deng Shentong smiled and said, "He is in the Marley Navy. If you have time, get together with him. Auburn's wife passed away. I believe he will feel more relaxed with an old friend by his side."

Kulim looked hesitant, as if he was struggling with his thoughts.

He was silent for a long time before he said, "I understand."

After saying that, Kulim hurriedly called his men to disappear in the rain as if he wanted to escape from here.

"He's leaving now?" Zhang Yi seemed to have not reacted yet, standing there blankly with the umbrella.

"Well. Kulin is a good man. He won't make things difficult for me, his old classmate." Deng Shentong said with a smile.

The other crew members also looked at each other, not understanding why the Colombian navy came with such a strong momentum and then left without a word.

……

When Cullum returned to the Copernicus, Captain Connor asked in surprise, "You're back so soon? Major Cullum, you don't look well. What happened on that ship?"

Kulim lowered his head and reported: "Report to the commander, the ship is just an ordinary civilian icebreaker, but there are aliens on board who have been ordered to rescue the trapped dignitaries of Huaxu Country."

Connor nodded. Kulim was his most trusted deputy. Since he said there was no problem, there was no need to waste any more time.

He waved his hand and said, "I understand. You can go down."

"Yes."

Kulim was in a bad mood at the moment, and couldn't tell whether he was happy or sad.

He looked gloomy and hurried back to his room.

He took out his communicator and hesitated for a long time before he pulled out a name that was both familiar and unfamiliar.

The words in the dialog box were typed and deleted.

Just like his hesitant mood at the moment.

After a while, he seemed to have made up his mind and pressed the send button:

"Oben, how have you been lately?"
