Chapter 545

Is it true or false?

"Hey, hasn't anyone noticed the problem with this big guy?"

Seeing the three people looking at each other blankly, Lin Yi pushed up her glasses, which weren't actually on her nose, and said to them.

"The core of this behemoth is its engine, and it must charge its engine before it can use that kind of flying ultimate move."

"When it's charging, its movements will be much slower. If we attack its engine first when it charges next time, then as long as the output is sufficient, the big guy whose engine is destroyed will be backfired by the force of the engine's rebound."

"At this point, dealing with this guy shouldn't be a big problem for us, right?"

"Theoretically, there shouldn't be a problem, but..."

Having figured out Lin Yi's thoughts, Dan Heng felt a headache coming on.

Lin Yi's idea was fine, but it was all based on one premise—that the four of them could successfully destroy the antimatter engine of the Doomsday Beast.

To accomplish this, sufficient strength and a certain degree of tacit understanding among team members are required to complete the tactical plan proposed by Lin Yi.

But the problem is that their group has enough power... well, they do have enough power.

Dan Heng didn't want to unleash that power, but when absolutely necessary, he certainly didn't want to see his friend March 7th and other innocent people die before his eyes.

But let's forget about teamwork.

Dan Heng and his old friend March 7th had a certain understanding, but Xing and Lin Yi had only known them for a dozen minutes.

Without having fought together before, the four lacked sufficient teamwork. If they launched a strong attack under such circumstances, at best someone would be seriously injured, and at worst, there would be casualties.

"Ah, Brother Dan Heng is very clever. He must be thinking about the loopholes in this plan, right? But..."

At this moment, Lin Yi put away the Tai Xu Grip and stood proudly in front of the three people with her hands on her hips, speaking to them with utmost confidence.

"I am my Dad's daughter, my Dad's child. There are no weak ones among them!"

"Alright, you've gone a bit too far with that."

Seeing his daughter's expression, Lin Yu looked helplessly at the three people whose gazes were becoming increasingly strange.

"I'm sorry to have made you laugh, gentlemen."

"So you're Xiao Yi's Dad..."

After taking a quick look at Lin Yu's appearance, March 7th said with great confusion.

"Why do you look so young?"

"Before we met, I thought I was going to meet an older man."

Well...

I said I'm actually over fifty, but the question is, would anyone believe me?

"March, don't do this."

Sensing that his old friend was about to unleash his full power, Dan Heng immediately and discreetly positioned himself between March 7th and Lin Yu.

He wasn't worried that Lin Yu would suddenly attack the three of them—given Lin Yu's previous display of strength, if he suddenly attacked, the three of them would definitely be doomed.

Dan Heng can unleash a portion of his hidden power, but that will take time.

Faced with such a powerful being who could kill the Doomsday Beast in an instant, Dan Heng felt that he would probably be beaten half to death before he could unleash his power.

Moreover, even after unleashing one's power, there's no guarantee that one can defeat the opponent.

Rather than pondering, "Oh dear, what should we do after this person suddenly falls ill?", he felt it was better to interrupt March 7th's continued speech, which could erupt at any moment.

Although he felt very sorry for his friend, based on his experience of working with March 7th, Dan Heng felt that the probability of March 7th giving him a surprise was so high that he couldn't feel at ease.

"Alright, this young man doesn't need to be too wary of me."

Having already sensed Dan Heng's inner thoughts, Lin Yu smiled and spoke to the three of them.

"You are not my enemies, so I have no reason to attack you."

"Let me introduce myself first. My name is Lin Yu, and I am Xiao Yi's father."

"As for other personal information, please forgive me for not being able to go into details."

Faced with Lin Yu's proactive display of goodwill, Dan Heng nodded slightly, but the vigilance he had just suppressed resurfaced uncontrollably.

He felt that he was usually quite good at controlling his facial expressions, but the problem was that both Lin Yi and Lin Yu saw through his inner thoughts not long after they met.

Faced with this father-daughter duo who seemed to be able to read minds, Dan Heng felt that it would take real magnanimity for him to be completely at ease.

It can be said that Dan Heng is now in a dilemma.

The powerful figure of unknown origin had taken the initiative to show goodwill. Faced with someone who had given him face, Dan Heng should not have been too suspicious of the person in front of him.

However, the father and daughter were so outrageous that Dan Heng felt a certain degree of unavoidable psychological pressure.

All of this was naturally observed by the Lin family father and daughter.

At this point, the father and daughter had no choice but to remain silent.

Alas, when faced with such intelligent people, their words often lead to unnecessary trouble.

Looking at March 7th, who was completely clueless, Lin Yu sometimes felt that being too smart wasn't necessarily a good thing.

"Um, Mr. Lin Yu ..."

After sensing Lin Yu's gaze, March 7th asked with a hint of curiosity.

Is there something on my face?

"That's not true."

Look, if it were someone like Da Congming who likes to write 500-word essays in his head, my glance would surely trigger a series of unfounded speculations.

"Oh, is the matter really resolved?"

Himeko, who had just arrived at the scene, walked over to the group of people who were chatting.

After looking at the stranger father and daughter in front of her, Himeko generously extended her right hand to Lin Yu.

"Hello, Mr. Lin Yu, my name is Himeko, and I am the navigator of the Stellaron Hunters."

"Thank you for saving our fellow passengers on the train."

"No need, it's nothing."

After grasping the other person's right hand, Lin Yu began to examine the woman in front of him.

Himeko is a character who also appeared in his world.

The difference in experiences between Murata Himeko and Himeko led to a significant divergence in their life trajectories.

Because of the loss of her mother at an early age and her father in her youth, Murata Himeko joined the Schicksal in order to investigate the cause of her father's death, abandoning her academic path that she could have pursued further studies.

However, Himeko is different from Murata Himeko. Although we don't know what her background is, the Himeko in front of us has the same appearance as Lin Yu's teacher, but her temperament is completely different.

Even though Murata Himeko has completely returned to being an office worker because of world peace, her early experiences have caused her to still be inclined to be a warrior at heart.

However, Himeko is different. Although she also participates in the battle, her temperament is noticeably more intellectual than that of Murata Himeko.

Although Lin Yi's eyes lit up when she saw someone familiar, the clever girl realized after seeing her father's actions that the woman in front of her was not her Himeko.

After they released each other's hands, Himeko spoke to Lin Yu and the others behind her.

"Let's leave here for now. I think this isn't the most suitable place to talk, is it?"

"That..."

Hoshi, who had never understood the situation, couldn't help but ask Himeko a question.

"What exactly is this thing inside my body?"

Just as Lin Yu destroyed the Doomsday Beast, Xing felt as if some images flashed before her eyes.

When a gigantic 'man' with scars glanced at him, Xingneng felt an oppressive aura emanating from him that far surpassed anything the Anti-Matter Legion could match.

Although the scene vanished from her sight in an instant, Xing, who had been active since waking up, naturally still felt a little uneasy.

Seemingly noticing the unease in Hoshi's eyes, Himeko spoke gently to Hoshi.

"I can understand how you feel right now. After all, the star core, which is known as the Cancer of All Things, is indeed a dangerous thing."

"But don't be too afraid. There is someone in this space station who can help you now."

"And now, we're going to see her—come with us. She may be a little eccentric, but she won't hurt you."

Looking at the woman's gentle expression, Hoshi thought for a few seconds before nodding in agreement with Himeko's suggestion.

After calming the uneasy girl down, Himeko turned her gaze to Lin Yu and Lin Yi.

"In addition, Mr. Lin Yu, we would also like to invite you to travel with us."

"Stationmaster Asta and Lady Herta have informed me of your victory over the Doomsday Beast. They wish to express their gratitude in person for your contribution in saving the space station."

"Oh, I see."

Hearing Himeko's invitation, Lin Yu nodded slightly and then muttered to himself.

"Then, I hope they have prepared the reward I am seeking."

"Um, Mr. Lin Yu."

Upon hearing Lin Yu mention the word "reward," March 7th seized the opportunity to ask Lin Yu a question.

"What kind of compensation are you planning to ask Station Master Asta and Lady Herta for?"

"This—of course it's money."

The moment Lin Yu uttered this answer, he saw both March 7th and Dan Heng show expressions of surprise.

Just before, the two had identified Lin Yu as some kind of reclusive master.

But now, after Lin Yu revealed what he wanted, the two of them felt a bit like their friendship had been shattered.

It wasn't that the two felt they shouldn't receive payment for helping—in fact, they thought Lin Yu's actions were perfectly reasonable.

The Stellaron Hunters often does good deeds without expecting anything in return, but that doesn't mean they expect others to do the same without seeking anything in return.

The main reason why their filter was shattered is that...

—This person actually wants money instead of something else?

Although I feel very sorry for Xiao Yi, her father...

—It's surprisingly tacky.

Railways, Chapter 4. It's Good to Be Rich

On their way to the meeting room, Lin Yu and Himeko had what appeared to be a friendly conversation.

Well, to everyone except Dan Heng and Lin Yi, the atmosphere at the scene was indeed harmonious and friendly.

Along the way, Lin Yu inquired about the actions Himeko had taken as the navigator of the Stellaron Hunters.

Himeko also took this opportunity, under the pretext of getting to know each other, to inquire about Lin Yu's past experiences.

In March 7th and Xing's eyes, this was an exchange of information between adults, completed with laughter.

However, in Dan Heng and Lin Yi's eyes, Lin Yu and Himeko's words had a hint of mutual probing.

Of course, this does not mean that hostility has already developed between the two.

In fact, for Himeko, Lin Yu's sudden appearance in the space station did require her to pay some attention.

Although she is not a direct employee of the Herta Space Station, the Stellaron Hunters and the Herta Space Station have such a deep cooperation that the difference between being a direct employee and not is not so significant.

For someone like Herta, who's too lazy to remember other people's names, Himeko's ability to make Himeko remember her name shows that Himeko is actually quite important.

Although Himeko was certain that the Herta, as an intelligent envoy, would make a more accurate judgment, she couldn't help but feel curious about Lin Yu.

People who are destined to explore new paths are more likely to develop an excessive or even excessive interest in new things.

As for why Lin Yu wanted to probe Himeko's side for information, the reason is quite simple.

He had roughly read through the plot of the railway storyline, but the problem was that while the original plot was the original plot, he couldn't guarantee that this worldview was a normal railway worldview.

A normal worldview will be accelerated by the appearance of a variable. Lin Yu, who was once one of the reasons for the accelerated Honkai, will certainly not think that the world he has transmigrated to is exactly the same as the original world in his mind, just like when he first transmigrated.

For example, he has already determined the difference between this Himeko and the navigator Himeko in the original work.
