Chapter 542

"This...!"

After feeling his injuries heal rapidly, Arlan sensed that something was wrong.

The wounds on his body had indeed healed, but now, Arlan felt more than just that.

The members of the defense department definitely need to train a lot, and as the leader of the defense department, Arlan's training intensity will definitely be higher than that of the others.

Under these circumstances, Arlan inevitably developed some hidden injuries that were difficult to treat under normal circumstances.

Of course, Young Miss Asta is not short of money, so she would not be stingy with her important subordinate Arlan.

Not only Arlan, but every crew member on the Herta Space Station was scheduled by Asta to undergo regular physical examinations and have some ailments treated.

If Asta hadn't made this arrangement, Arlan, who wasn't regularly treating his hidden injuries, would definitely be in much worse shape than he is today.

But—this gentleman actually used healing power?

Will his fate be the Abundance?

Although it's not that Pathstrider of the Abundance Fate is incapable of fighting, the fact that a powerful figure who wiped out a bunch of Voidmote without doing anything was actually the Abundance Pathstrider gave Arlan a strong sense of contrast.

However, while feeling the contrast from Lin Yu, Arlan also truly sensed Lin Yu's sincerity.

Generally speaking, when negotiating terms, both parties will inevitably test each other's bottom line to some extent during the initial meeting before making a decision.

Some people even require the client to pay a deposit before they will start working, albeit slowly.

But now, the deposit has been paid, but the person who made the payment is this gentleman.

For Arlan, who had seen the Young Miss talking to some people, this guy was somewhat antisocial.

However strange Lin Yu may seem, his sincerity and goodwill are never a bad thing.

Although Arlan's wariness had not disappeared, he had to admit that he had at least begun to approve of this man.

As for Lin Yu now, after treating Arlan, he casually released the power of the Corrosion Herrscher to infiltrate the firewall of this space station.

He then discovered that, unsurprisingly, the space station's firewall had been breached, causing the security system to malfunction.

Although this malfunction was minor, it turned into a major problem when the Herta Space Station, which had been exposed, was attacked by the Anti-Matter Legion.

After conveniently fixing the minor malfunction with his Herrscher Authority, Lin Yu continued to use his Corruption Power to do other things.

To be honest, dealing with these Voidmote would be about as difficult for him as breathing.

However, ensuring the safety of the space station during the process will make things a little more complicated.

After all, it's quite difficult for a strongman to crush ants without disturbing the mud on the ground in the slightest.

Okay, okay, it's a bit of a hassle.

Xiao Yi was with those three little guys... oh, I can't say little guys anymore.

At least Dan Heng is half a step up to Lao Deng.

Now, let's deal with those Voidmote near them first.

This child is still pretending to be a well-behaved child in front of strangers.

Expecting her to unleash her inner true nature seems more difficult than I imagined.

[Facing the boy before you, having proposed a monetary deal, you suddenly experience a fleeting hallucination.]

Yes, the voice actor for this boy is Tao Dian, and the voice actor for your wife Kiana is also Tao Dian, so—

Are you going to put on some nonsensical show of numerical argumentation?

[Hehe—of course not, this system isn't a gay system.]

However, your plan to swindle a large sum of money from the rich woman right off the bat is somewhat inconsistent with your past personality.

In the past, you rarely asked for anything in return for helping others, even if you didn't say it was out of a sense of obligation. But now you're asking for money right away. Does that mean—?

Could it be that...?

So you've finally revealed your true colors, starting to raise funds just to sleep with more pretty girls?

You've really been consistently good at this.

But unfortunately, you're mistaken.

Oh, I knew it.

[You've had over a dozen wives, so why does your libido still seem so low? Could it be that you've been completely drained by this system all these years you've been AFK?]

You're the one who's no good!

And let's be serious, let's talk about the system.

Don't forget that I am still an unregistered person with no legal status.

An unidentified person, working illegally, appears on a space station and suddenly jumps out saying, "Hey everyone, I'm a great guy here to help you"—do you think they'll believe him?

Believe it or not, it doesn't matter. Forget the people on the space station Anti-Matter Legion; even if the Herta itself starts using her super-brain to attack you, you won't be in any serious trouble if you're serious.

That's what they say, but the problem is, many things can be handled more gently, so why should I go to such extremes?

Is your softening treatment just a way to make money?

Sodayo.

The moment I received the money, I was no longer a stranger of unknown origin, but a greedy person who directly made money in order to gain wealth.

In this situation, a greedy person is probably more reliable than someone of unknown origin and purpose.

At least I can actually buy my way out of things!

[...No, you've only been here for less than a minute, and you're already starting to establish a persona?]

I've long been used to this kind of thing in my life.

Besides, there's no Otto here—

First, even if Otto were resurrected, he would only be killed by your elbow. Second, there's no Otto here, but there are Luocha.

Don't interrupt me, you know what I mean.

Aside from the Star Gods who rarely make a move, the only people in this place who can threaten my safety are some high-ranking Commanders and powerful troops led by Commanders from major powers.

In this situation, what's the big deal about using a persona to solve a problem?

If I don't want to pretend anymore, I can take off the mask anytime. Right now, I should be a little more confident, just like you said, and not be so timid.

[You've said so much, but you were still pretty hesitant and timid when it came to taking the money...]

So that's how it is. You were thinking of those who don't know your background.

... You talk too much nonsense.

[Asahi Nee, A'yu.]

Don't disgust me!

"Um, sir."

Seeing Lin Yu slightly distracted, Arlan, whose body had recovered to a state surpassing its peak, now showed more respect towards Lin Yu.

"I haven't asked your name yet."

"Lin Yu —you can just call me that."

He's approachable, but you can sense a hint of authority about him.

Mr. Lin Yu is no ordinary person.

After pulling out his communicator, Arlan realized that it had been broken during the battle.

Sigh, there's nothing I can do for now. I've contacted the young lady.

I should go back first. In my current state, I have no way of checking if any other crew members are still in the unsafe area of the space station.

I hope everyone is alright, especially me right now...

—There's nothing more that can be done.

Almost at the same time, on the other side of the space station

At this moment, Dan Heng, Lin Yi, March 7th, and Xing, who were speeding along, had already noticed something strange.

After Lin Yi appeared before the three of them, they did not encounter any other Voidmote on their way here.

It's important to know that when March 7th and Dan Heng sneaked in from the outside as reinforcements, they bypassed some members of the Anti-Matter Legion.

But now, as they retraced their steps and prepared for battle, they discovered that they hadn't seen a single Voidmote, let alone any other creatures.

To be honest, they might feel lucky if they managed to avoid some enemies, but then all the enemies disappeared...

Even the naturally optimistic March 7th found it hard to laugh after discovering this strange phenomenon.

Today's events were sudden; there have already been enough strange occurrences on the space station.

By now, the Anti-Matter Legion has invaded, and these lunatics should have already destroyed the surrounding area.

As a result, in the areas where the members of the Anti-Matter Legion went missing, March 7th and Dan Heng didn't even find any trace of battle.

This is enough to show that the person who defeated those members of the Anti-Matter Legion completely overwhelmed these legion lunatics in terms of strength.

"Xiao Yi".

After stopping, March 7th asked the girl in front of him with a complicated expression.

"Do you... know why we haven't encountered those Voidmote along the way?"

"Hmm, I've guessed a bit of it."

When Lin Yi was asked by March 7th, she nodded slightly and gave an answer that March 7th hadn't considered.

"Maybe my dad found out I was heading in this direction, so he helped me get rid of all the small fry?"

"Your Dad?"

Hearing Lin Yi's answer, March 7th asked with a hint of doubt.

"Can you tell me what kind of person your Dad is?"

What kind of person?

Lustful! He doesn't care about others' feelings and just rushes in! A lustful demon who wants everything! A bastard father who abandoned his daughter at home and went off to run wild in the Imaginary Space!

Well, Lin Yi definitely wouldn't reveal her true thoughts to a stranger.

After a moment's thought, Lin Yi could only truthfully describe Lin Yu's public image.

"Well... I guess you could say Dad is a hero who saved the world."

"On our planet, the appearance of some strange monsters and phenomena has caused a lot of suffering and death among the humans there."

"And in order to solve these problems, Dad trained himself hard and eventually succeeded in solving them, and even made the world a better place—well, that's pretty much it."

Hearing Lin Yi's answer, Dan Heng couldn't say he didn't believe a word of it, but he was at least skeptical of what Lin Yi said.

After all, it's normal for a daughter to see a positive image of her father, and it's even more normal for her to exaggerate these images out of respect and love for him.

For Dan Heng, who was unaware of the truth, he certainly didn't expect that Lin Yi not only didn't lie or exaggerate, but actually downplayed these things.

"Wow, your Dad is amazing."

After seeing Lin Yi proudly say these words, March 7th squatted down and smiled at Lin Yi.

"After I meet him, I want to see what kind of person he really is."

"Ah, about that..."

After saying those words on March 7th, Lin Yi looked at March 7th and Xing in front of her with a complicated expression.

Then she thought back to her family, which wasn't exactly twisted but was definitely very abnormal, and suddenly sighed softly.

"What's wrong."

Seeing the sudden change in Lin Yi's expression, Xing, who had been silent the whole way, suddenly spoke up and asked Lin Yi a question.

"Was there a problem with what March said?"

"Oh, no."

Think about it carefully. People say Dad is a womanizer, but his only wives are all the Mom he married after he came back a few years ago.
