Chapter 461 - 454: What is Hidden?
The Serpent People didn’t do anything; they just came for a loop, hovered quietly above Malakal for about two minutes, and then disappeared again at a speed unbelievable to humans.
Gao Yang, after all, failed to see the Serpent People’s spaceship with his own eyes, even though he knew it was right over his head, he still couldn’t see anything.
"The Serpent People have left."
Xinghe said, then she looked puzzled, "Just like that, they left?"
"Uh, otherwise? Should they have done something?"
Gao Yang wasn’t one to nitpick, but he genuinely didn’t understand what Xinghe meant. Of course, he didn’t know what the Serpent People would do when they came. In his view, it was perfectly normal for the Serpent People to come, see that everything was alright, and then leave.
"It’s like our reconnaissance missions, reconnaissance is just that—once it’s done and the enemy situation is assessed, you withdraw. I think war, or battles, are the same. It’s just that the Serpent People detected some abnormal signal and came to check it out. Finding out it was noise made by their own allies, they then withdrew," he said.
After finishing, Gao Yang asked curiously, "Isn’t that how aliens operate?"
Xinghe nodded, "Perhaps you’re right, let’s leave as well."
Satan had released a balloon, the Serpent People detected the balloon, and then they came to look. Probably finding nothing amiss, they left; so now that Satan had finished releasing the balloon and conducting the test, it was time for them to leave too.
