Acheron Frowned, Sensing Something Was Wrong

Asta shook her head. Himeko also sighed softly.

"I knew it... It's okay, I'll try sending a message to the Herta too."

Himeko and Asta were the main people discussing matters.

Lin Shuang was already looking forward to the arrival of the Doomsday Beast.

Lin Shuang hadn't used the Riding Skill much since acquiring it, and the few times she did use it were always on Spaceship.

Therefore, Lin Shuang didn't see anything unusual about it at all.

I tried it out today and found that this skill's so-called 'assimilation' and 'fusion' are...

That was truly domineering; the assimilated Mount No. 1 even acquired some of Heliobus's unique characteristics.

It feels like they forcibly added energy and then evolved it to a higher level.

As a result, Lin Shuang didn't dare to switch to Stellaron for testing.

If we accidentally create something dangerous that emits radiation from Stellaron, that would be a real problem.

Thinking about it this way, Lin Shuang silently gave thanks to Acheron in her heart.

If she hadn't brought herself such a Great Heliobus, she might still be using Stellaron right now.

Lin Shuang was lost in thought, imagining herself assimilating the Doomsday Beast and transforming it into a giant fire dragon engulfed in flames.

Just thinking about it makes me feel cool.

Perhaps we could ask Asta later to see if there are any Staff Member on the Space Station who specialize in researching Space Folding.

I'll ask someone to make two Poké Ball so I can easily carry around the Mount that I've assimilated.

While pondering.

Himeko and Asta's conversation has come to a temporary end.

The Astral Express Crew decided to help calm down the agitated Staff Member.

Of course, Lin Shuang felt that Himeko really wanted to do was to see what kind of person Xing was.

After all, one should take a closer look at an amnesiac person of unknown origin.

As for Lin Shuang...

Considering Mount No. 1, Lin Shuang decided it was better to stay by Asta's side and avoid having heart-to-heart talks with the Staff Member.

That way, when others see it, they won't panic immediately.

"Thank you again for your help. Arlan's hands and feet are injured, making it difficult for him to move around, and he probably won't be able to fight for a while."

Asta was very grateful to Lin Shuang for bringing Arlan back.

Unlike the Astral Express Crew, Lin Shuang was a guest invited back from the Space Station.

Asta was already wondering how to tell Lin Shuang about her research on the Herta, and now she owes her a favor.

"It's nothing, I was just going that way."

Lin Shuang waved her hand, then pointed to Mount No. 1 idly by with his arms crossed.

"Is the Anti-Matter Legion under a lot of pressure right now? We could send it to do some temporary work."

With such a large size, finding a suitable storage solution for it is a problem.

We can't exactly take it to the surface of Azur Star.

Lin Shuang pondered whether she should help it get an unofficial member for the Space Station's Security Department.

Normally, it stays on the Space Station when there's nothing to do, but if there's anything, it can be taken away directly.

This saves Lin Shuang from having to carry such a big guy around all the time.

Thinking of this, Lin Shuang turned to look at Mount No. 1 and sighed:

"You're a mature and capable Mount now; it's time to get a job and earn money to support yourself."

Mount No. 1:?

If he could speak, he would definitely complain bitterly that he was less than 24 System Hour he was born, and that this was child labor exploitation.

But clearly, Asta couldn't hear it; only Lin Shuang could hear her thoughts in her mind.

Lin Shuang's heart, however, is black.

"Oh no..."

Having overheard March 7th mentioning this guy's strength on the road, Asta was naturally intrigued.

I just don't know if the people in the Security Department will be able to accept it.

And could these shaken Staff Member really accept such a large creature becoming their bodyguard?

However, the pressure on the Security Department is really high right now. To put it bluntly, the Herta Space Station is still a research group with a scientific research nature.

Although there is Security Department, it is clear that there are not many people, and they spend most of their time dealing with the noise caused by those strange and unusual Curio.

Facing these Anti-Matter Legion now, the pressure is immense.

If Lin Shuang's pet could join the fight, "one against a thousand" might be an exaggeration, but "one against a hundred" would still be achievable.

Of course, Asta has always been a person who dares to do and dares to think.

"I agree. Let's give it a try. How about I offer your pet the salary of a Security Department head?"

Asta smiled at Lin Shuang, then lowered her head to contact the Security Department to come and take the new employee to her post.

As for Lin Shuang, that's no problem at all; we just need to find her a long-term meal ticket and a place to live.

Lin Shuang had only expected the treatment of an ordinary Security Department member, but she didn't expect Asta to offer such a high amount.

"Okay."

Lin Shuang nodded, then turned to look at Mount No. 1 and gave him a look.

The meaning is self-evident.

Although Mount No. 1 would prefer to stay with Lin Shuang forever, as its creator...

Lin Shuang let it work at the Space Station temporarily, and it had no choice but to obey. Lin Shuang also promised to come to the Space Station often.

Soon, a member of the Security Department came running over.

After listening to Asta's explanation, the Security Department officer was completely dumbfounded. He looked up, staring at her blankly, speechless.

Volume 1: Chapter 163 Acheron frowned, realizing something was wrong.

Although reluctant, Mount No. 1 followed the Security Department who looked like he'd seen a ghost.

The reason she felt so at ease was that Lin Shuang had maintained a constant connection with it, allowing her to sense its condition and state of mind at any time.

And they explained all the things that needed to be noted.

Another point is that this guy is smarter than Lin Shuang expected.

It is quite obvious that it can understand the emotions expressed by the people around it.

Lin Shuang watched her Mount No. 1, leave, hoping it would live up to her expectations.

"Lin Shuang, you've really been a huge help, rescuing people and adding to the Security Department's fighting strength. I don't know how to thank you enough."

When speaking to someone in a private setting, Asta's tone is noticeably different from when speaking to someone in a public setting; it tends to be gentler.

As she spoke, she took out a phone and handed over a QR code.

"Let's exchange private contact information, hehe. We can discuss the thank-you gift privately later."

Who would refuse the contact information of a wealthy woman who casually transfers 200 million Credits?

Lin Shuang, of course, chose to add the contact without hesitation.

Seeing Asta appear in her friend list, Lin Shuang realized that she hadn't added anyone from the Astral Express Crew as a friend yet.

Lin Shuang really wanted to board the Star Rail Express and travel on it for a while.

Of course, not right now.

"By the way, would you mind if I contacted Ms. Herta using your name?"

Asta, holding her phone, instinctively covered her mouth with it, blinked her beautiful eyes twice as if they could speak, and asked Lin Shuang a question.

"... I remember you said in the email that Herta was interested in me, so it's normal for you to send her a notification, right?"

Lin Shuang scratched her head, she didn't even know why Asta had specifically asked that question.

She came here to keep her appointment, so why not notify Herta? Does he expect her to stay at the Space Station indefinitely?

"Hehe, I was just asking casually."

Asta chuckled and skipped over the question.

Just then, Lin Shuang's phone rang, and Acheron's avatar popped up.

Seeing this, Asta said she would contact Ms. Herta, then turned away to avoid eye contact.

She recognized the name.

A "Galaxy Ranger" named Acheron. At least that's what the information says.

It is said that Acheron and Lin Shuang worked together to destroy a Stellaron, restoring a congested air route to normal.

Regardless of who contributed more, it's clear that both of them are exceptionally skilled.

Moreover, the two have a very close relationship.

So Asta deliberately avoided eye contact.

Lin Shuang nodded and didn't go far, opening the chat box right next to Asta.

[Acheron: Are you there? Are you busy right now?]

[Lin Shuang: Not busy, but there's a bit of a hassle. I'm on the Herta Space Station.]

[Acheron: Did you see the Herta?]

[Lin Shuang: No, but I did see the Anti-Matter Legion...]

[Acheron:?]

[Acheron: Should I make a move?]

[Lin Shuang: No need, no need, it's just a Doomsday Beast, I can handle it...]

As she spoke, Lin Shuang briefly recounted to Acheron what had happened after she boarded the Space Station.

After listening to Lin Shuang's explanation, Acheron sent a string of ellipses:

[Acheron:...]

[Acheron: You really are... you always seem to run into trouble wherever you go, it's really worrying.]

[Acheron: Be careful, call me anytime if you get into trouble.]

Lin Shuang smiled as she read Acheron's instructions.

[Lin Shuang: You weren't like this before. You used to want me to get involved in more troublesome things and gain more experience.]

[Acheron:...]

The Acheron) is again a series of ellipses.

Then there was a long "typing..." message, but no new messages came in.

He was passing through the Acheron, a shattered star field, when he saw the message from Lin Shuang.

He first smiled, then, just as he was about to say something...

Acheron belatedly realized the huge change in his attitude.

Undeniably, Acheron has always been a kind-hearted person, willing to lend a helping hand even to strangers in need.

That was how it was initially treated with Lin Shuang. Later, when it was discovered that Lin Shuang had gained power, it was out of kindness that they trained her a little more.
