You are absolutely right.

Looking at it this way, I really am a selfish person.

It's not that I'm criticizing you; the main reason this system is saying all this is to tell you something...

[—Do you still find the system's complaints too annoying?]

It's been ten years since we last met, and you've become this kind of sharp commentator. It feels a bit strange.

Perhaps this system was essentially the same ten years ago, but back then, you had no choice but to go crazy, so this system didn't bother saying anything more.

But now, ten years have passed, and these ten years have been a little too smooth sailing for you.

You saved the world, and together with your sworn brothers from your hometown, you saved other worlds. You have gained so much love and affection from your beloved wife.

[And because of this, the system has now realized one thing—you are gradually losing control.]

To others, you may still seem normal, but this system has realized that your mindset and personality are becoming increasingly distorted.

They may not have noticed, or they may have noticed but were too embarrassed to speak up, but this system has the capability and no such concerns, so it can say whatever it wants.

After all, enlightening the hosts favored by this system is also one of its responsibilities.

Thank you so much.

We're already so familiar with each other, let's skip these formalities. It's much better than these...

Compared to these?

Are you planning to target the robin first or the Sparkle?

?

Although the Black Swan no longer has a physical body, engaging with her in a religious ceremony has its own unique charm.

??

[And Mei exists in this world too, and right beside you, there's a girl who loves you and is always watching you.]

???

Stop asking questions—just tell me if your joystick moved or not.

No, I only remember that our initial topic was that I planned to help Belobog get some gold coins to continue rebuilding Jarilo-VI.

[Oh, so you're still planning to target the Sapphire Blue Group, right? I understand. After all, Bronya in this world has a figure that's no less impressive than your beloved wife, and her temperament has a unique charm.]

[The taste of Supreme Guardian is really good. jpg]

Don't you think the conversation went a bit too fast, from making money to such a deep heart-to-heart talk, and then from a strong sense of urgency to vulgarity?

[What's so strange about that? In our system chat group, ten topics can change every second.]

[Isn't this how silly netizens are when they're chatting in group chats? One minute they're witnessing something, the next they're posting explicit pictures; three minutes ago they're talking about mobile games, three minutes later they're talking about novels.]

No matter what world you're in, the world is constantly changing.

Those who lack imagination and can't keep up with the world's pace will only be eliminated by the world—don't you think so, host?

... Your conversation, which mixes vulgarities with philosophical insights, is really quite strange.

Have my not-so-lovable seniors and juniors ever complained that chatting with me is really tiring?

PS: 5K, to be continued tomorrow.

Trailblaze Chapter 54. What?! You're Lin Yu?!

Jarilo-VI. Belobog. Kliper Castle

Inside Kliper Castle, Bronya looked at the data reports compiled by her subordinates and felt like her head was about to explode.

She knew that Supreme Guardian was not easy, and she had already made some mental preparations.

But when the budget was presented to her, Miss Bronya Rand had to admit an unavoidable fact.

Being broke is really painful.

After Cocolia's death, Bronya Rand, with the support of the Landau family and the Void Archive, successfully suppressed the ambitious individuals who were stirring up trouble, and officially took over the position of Supreme Guardian.

However, a few days later, problems arose.

There are too many places in the lower district where money is needed.

The residents of the lower city have suffered a lot over the years, and with the upper and lower cities now connected again, Bronya will naturally want to make up for the harm Cocolia has caused them.

But there are even more places in the Upper City that need money!

After all, they now need to find a way to restore the environment of Jarilo-VI, and there are some other miscellaneous things to deal with.

The required funds for each item have been reduced to the minimum, but there are just too many projects.

As for the claim that some people used this opportunity to line their own pockets...

Well, it's true that some ministers had these crooked ideas.

However, since Void Archive, which Lin Yu sent to Belobog to assist Bronya, was here, anyone who tried to do anything underhanded would be dealt with directly by Void Archive using Simulated Feathered Dust.

After all these years, Void Archive, as a member of the two-person one-click team, is already very skilled at using Feathered Dust to control the other's consciousness.

In this incident, some people had ulterior motives, and then they were all treated as pests and disposed of directly.

But even if those who embezzled funds were gone, the money... still wasn't enough.

While Lin Yu was on the Luofu Xianzhou, he also took the time to use Asta's connections to help Belobog contact some material suppliers to purchase materials.

As for Credits...

Belobog certainly didn't have any.

So Lin Yu directly paid their advance payment.

However, the cost of reviving a planet is simply too high. Even after emptying Lin Yu's coffers, Belobog still needs Tianwen amount of money.

Now that things have come to this, Bronya definitely wouldn't stoop to asking Lin Yu for help...

The other party helped Belobog deal with the Void creatures, resolved the crisis brought about by the star core, sent professionals to assist him, and even emptied their coffers to help them rebuild their homeland.

They've gone to such lengths to help Belobog, anyone with a shred of decency wouldn't want to trouble them any further under these circumstances.

A qualified politician should be shameless.

However, Bronya Rand was not a competent politician, so lacking in empathy, she could only worry while pondering possible solutions.

"Lady Bronya!"

Just then, a Silvermane Guards rushed into the Supreme Guardian's office in Kliper Castle and shouted at Bronya.

"No, this is terrible!"

"What's wrong?"

Seeing the other person rush in, panting, Bronya put down the budget report in her hand and spoke softly to the Silvermane Guards.

"Don't rush, speak slowly."

"Yes, there are people claiming to be members of the Interastral Peace Corporation. They have just arrived at the border of Belobog and are negotiating with Lord Gepard."

"Interastral Peace Corporation?"

Upon hearing this title, Bronya asked her subordinates.

Did they... explain why they came?

Strange, according to the information Mr. Void Archive helped me collect, the company has little interest in some barren lands.

Our Jarilo-VI has been plagued by wind and snow for seven hundred years. Even though Mr. Lin Yu took the star core away, the environment here is really not that good.

Moreover, the merchants who sold us the building materials had warned us that we shouldn't offend the Interastral Peace Corporation, and now they've suddenly appeared here...

An uninvited guest is a bit of a hassle to deal with.

Regarding this point...

Hearing Bronya's question, the Silvermane Guards stammered.

"They say...we, Belobog, owed the company a lot of money seven hundred years ago."

"In the past, the company lost contact with Belobog, so they temporarily put the money on hold, but now..."

"Now that our planet has weathered the initial crisis, the people at the company want to have a proper talk with us about the debt issue."

"... I see."

Listening to her subordinate's account, Bronya's expression remained unchanged, but she clearly felt an even greater headache coming on.

Belobog was already broke, and now someone's saying that Jarilo owed the company a huge debt seven hundred years ago...

—Adding insult to injury, isn't this going to be fatal?

"Let's invite the company's representatives to Kliper Castle first. Tell them that I will have a formal meeting with them here to discuss this issue."

"Yes!"

However, just as the Silvermane Guards was about to report back, a girl wearing glasses hurriedly opened the door.

"Lady Bronya, something terrible has happened!"

Upon seeing another colleague, Pela immediately spoke to Bronya.

"The people from the company are fighting with Captain Gepard!"

"What did you say?!"

"Here's what happened."

After calming herself down a bit, Pela spoke rapidly to Bronya and Void Archive.

"The advance team members from the company had a minor disagreement with our people."

"Although Captain Gepard tried to get our people to exercise restraint, the other side went too far and attacked directly."

"Right now, the Silvermane Guards members are being directly overwhelmed by the enemy because their equipment is inferior."

"Although Miss Seele and Mr. Luka from [Earthfire] have already led people to provide support, but..."

Listening to Pela's report, Bronya knew that this matter was clearly not going to end so easily.

Although Seele and Luka have embarked on their destiny, their combined combat strength is definitely not enough to take on a group of elites alone.

Moreover, the two sides have already started fighting. If this battle is not stopped in time, then regardless of whether they win or lose, the soldiers on Belobog's side will not have an easy time.

The company is the largest power in the universe, and their combat equipment is obviously many times better than that of the Silvermane Guards.

No matter how hard Gepard, Luka, Seele tried, Bronya really wasn't optimistic about the overall strength of her side.

"Supreme Guardian."

At this moment, the Void Archive, which had been observing all of this, asked Bronya.

"Should I inform Boss Lin Yu?"

"... No need to trouble Mr. Lin Yu."

Hearing Void Archive's question, Bronya took a deep breath and then spoke to Void Archive.

"He has already done enough for us, Belobog. His kindness... we can hardly repay it, and it is impossible for us to involve him in new trouble at this time."

"Mr. Void Archive, please refrain from taking action unless absolutely necessary. After all, if you, as Mr. Lin Yu's subordinate, participate in this battle after the falling out with the company, it might put Mr. Lin Yu in a difficult position."

"Yes, I understand. Then I will do as Lady Bronya instructs."

Although I think that even if I didn't notify Boss Lin Yu, he would probably still come over.

Moreover, it's a falling out with the company...

Having known Lin Yu for almost ten years, and having worked with Lin Yu for seven or eight years since Lin Yu return, Void Archive knows very well that his boss may not necessarily have a good relationship with the company.

Or rather, the Void Archive can at least guarantee that Lin Yu's relationship with some departments of the company will definitely not be good.

For example, the head of the Market Development Department of Interastral Peace Corporation currently operates by not doing any human resources work.

Schneider, a 'previous unknown,' had used all sorts of ruthless methods to 'expand' the market by torturing the indigenous people more than once or twice when he was in charge of the Market Development Department.

In the process of helping the company expand its business, his hands were stained with blood, and as long as he lives, he will continue to use this mode of action, causing more families to be torn apart and lives lost.
