"What the f*ck are you talking about? I am human! I have a mother and a father! I eat, I sleep, I play games! What more can I say?" said Jiang Fei.

"What about your master? Is he an alien?!" Han Tianyu shook Jiang Fei violently.

"Of course. He is the same as I am. Only stronger," said Jiang Fei as he rolled his eyes. Zhuge Shanzhen was just a product of his imagination. Technically speaking, he was neither human nor alien.

"Are you telling me the truth?" said Han Tianyu as he shook Jiang Fei once more.

"Sheesh. Why would I lie to you? It's not like I can get something in return," said Jiang Fei as he rolled his eyes again.

After hearing Jiang Fei's answer, Han Tianyu got closer to his face, to the point where his own nose was about to touch Jiang Fei's. All he could get from Jiang Fei was an annoyed face that was telling the truth.

"If you don't mind. Get your hands and face off me. I don't swing it that way. I like girls, with boobs and all. Not dicks," said Jiang Fei before shoving him away.

Han Tianyu was pushed off like a piece of paper and dropped to the ground with his knees buried on the sandy beach. He was in shock. He had genuinely thought that Jiang Fei was an alien that was sent to Earth to spy on humanity. He had even thought that if he went too far, Jiang Fei would kill him to silence him.

Jiang Fei and Ariel exchanged a look. Jiang Fei then walked up to Han Tianyu, who was kneeling motionless with a blank expression on his face.

He squatted down and casually slapped his face. Not too hard but just enough to snap him back to reality.

"Did you do something? Are you high on drugs? Is it too much or too little?" Jiang Fei joked before extending his hand to help Han Tianyu up to his feet.

Ariel walked closer to Jiang Fei and whispered, "He is in a state of shock. I'm not sure what he is thinking but I can tell that he was genuinely scared for a moment there."

Han Tianyu woke up from the delusion and accepted Jiang Fei's hand, pulling himself up.

"Man… I was so scared that I could have peed myself there," said Han Tianyu as he frantically checked his pants for pee stains.

"Scared? What the hell would a person like you scared of? Ex-girlfriends that you had cheated with?" said Jiang Fei.

"What is really going on with you?" said Jiang Fei as he gently slapped Han Tianyu at his side of his arm.

"Seeing you behaving like an immature brat… I'm alright now!" Han Tianyu chuckled by himself.

"Immature brat? I take it that you don't want the present that I gave you? Guess what? I'm going to give it to the Zhang family! Perhaps they would see me as a mature man!" said Jiang Fei jokingly.

"Waaah! Please don't! I'm only joking!"

Jiang Fei was stunned at Han Tianyu's reaction. He had thought that remodeling the Interceptors to be more human-ly would be a great idea to help Han Tianyu. How would he know that the changes he had made in the cockpit would freak out Han Tianyu that much? Jiang Fei had only done so to help China to defend itself. If he had not changed the controls, Han Tianyu would have to spend a lot of time trying to reverse-engineer it to understand the controls and even more time to modify it! Who knew how long it would take for him to do so? By the time he did, Mutants and the Americans might have attacked China!

Jiang Fei sighed heavily and walked up to Han Tianyu.

"I think I understand how you feel but I am a citizen of China. I would not do anything to betray the nation's interest," said Jiang Fei.

"Yeah. I believe you," said Han Tianyu as he nodded. To be fair, Han Tianyu had known Jiang Fei for some time and saw how he made progress on his own. To be honest, he did not believe that Jiang Fei was an alien but the internals of the cockpit had made a good scare out of him.

"Oh yeah. Remember to apply some changes to the appearance of these weapons. Save the others from being scared like how you did," said Jiang Fei.

"Sure. Can you tell me who did the modifications in the first place?" said Han Tianyu.

"Uhm… Well. Okay," said Jiang Fei. Jiang Fei did not want to reveal his secrets but decided to come up with something else.

"Thanks," said Han Tianyu earnestly. If he could tell Han Tianyu his secrets it would mean that Jiang Fei was really a friend.

"Actually, I have found an alien's weapon factory. So… that's that."

It was not entirely true but it was still the truth. He did have the weapon factory but it was a part of something bigger! Jiang Fei had only revealed the tip of the iceberg.

"A factory? An actual alien factory? Can it really make weapons?" Han Tianyu asked.

"Of course! Did you see these weapons? They are all fresh out from the factory!" said Jiang Fei with a proud smile.

"Sh*t!" Han Tianyu shouted. He then grabbed Jiang Fei once more and started blabbering.

"200 fighter jets! I want aircraft carriers! I want battlecruisers! Oh! I want…"

Jiang Fei stared at Han Tianyu for so long but he did not show any signs of stopping. He nudged Han Tianyu before screaming at him.

"Yo! You want this and that! Who's going to make it for you, huh?"

Jiang Fei had considered himself extremely generous for giving him 30 Interceptors! Who knew that the man would be so greedy to the point where he had actually listed out all the weapons that he saw in the Entertainment Lounge.

"Whoops… Sorry. But, didn't you say you had the factory? Come on, make me some…" said Han Tianyu before apologizing for his sudden outburst.

"Oh sure thing. With everything I have, I can make you a cup noodle!" said Jiang Fei before rolling his eyes.

"Is it about materials? Do not worry about that! This brother can provide with any materials you want!" said Han Tianyu with a thumbs up and a wink.

"It's not about materials. It's power!" said Jiang Fei.

"Power? You mean electricity? A power source?"

"Not exactly. See… the factory and the weapons itself runs on some form of alien energy. I doubt that you have them since I have already used up all the Energy Crystals in the factory to make these," said Jiang Fei as he lied.

"Energy Crystals? What is that?"

"It's something like a crystal. A transparent…" Jiang Fei proceeded to explain the nature of the Energy Crystal to Han Tianyu.

"Oh! So those things are Energy Crystal!" cried Han Tianyu as if he had made a grave mistake.

"Ho! So you do have them! How many have you got?" said Jiang Fei as he understood the expression Han Tianyu was making. It was a surprise since Jiang Fei was spending way too much time searching for it.

"Erhm… I do have some. Actually, when we first found it, we thought that it was nothing important. We could not figure out the function of it and treated it as a building material…"

"Building material? What did you do!? WHAT DID YOU DO?!" Jiang Fei cried out loud from the top of his lungs. If he had destroyed it to make something else, it would be akin to destroying a treasure!

"How many do you have?" said Jiang Fei.

"Around a thousand of those things," said Han Tianyu quietly.

"A THOUSAND!?" Jiang Fei was stunned. He could almost faint as Han Tianyu's lucky discovery. Before he could faint, he snapped back to reality and quickly ask the follow-up question.

"So, what did you do with it?"

"Well. Its structural integrity was so strong that we had thought that it was suited to be building blocks. So, I used it to make tempered glass in interrogation rooms," said Han Tianyu before shrinking away with shame.

In the alliance, there was bound to be criminals that the alliance members had caught. These criminals and wrong-doers would be imprisoned in strong cells that were made to be extra sturdy. The Energy Crystals that Han Tianyu had was used to build those cells.

"Hey, Brother Yu," said Jiang Fei softly with a blank expression.

"Y-Yes?"

"F*ck you very much!"

"…"

Han Tianyu could only bow to apologies.

He then had an idea.

"What if I reclaim those Energy Crystals and give it all to you. What sort of weapons can you make?" said Han Tianyu.

"How many?! With one thousand Energy Crystal, I can easily make 30 fighter jets, one submarine, one battlecruiser, and one Helicarrier!" said Jiang Fei after he had factored in how he was going to take some for himself.

If Han Tianyu were to give him one thousand Energy Crystals, Jiang Fei would only need to spend a little over 200 Energy Crystals to make those weapons that Jiang Fei had listed. Jiang Fei could then pocket the rest of the 800 Energy Crystals for himself!
