[Angry Lily]

Scorpion Warrior Seymour followed Crab. When he saw a spaceship and a starship take off from the base, he was so startled that he stopped tailing him.

"Lord Carlos, I have a situation to report."

After stopping his pursuit, Seymour contacted his immediate superior, Carlos.

"What did you find?"

A three-dimensional holographic projection of Evil Star God Carlos appeared in Seymour's palm.

"Lord Carlos, I discovered that Gaia and the others have another starship. I didn't dare act rashly, so I could only inform you!"

He gave Evil Star God Carlos a detailed report of his discovery. "I also suspect that the other side has an advanced Radar System. Crab seems to have been spotted."

"Stand down for now. I've already captured Venus. Come back first."

Hearing this, Carlos didn't dare let Seymour take any risks.

Anubi was a very good example.

He couldn't afford to lose another subordinate like that.

"Yes, sir."

Seymour didn't dare disobey Carlos's order in the slightest. He turned into an iron ball and rolled back the way he'd come.

Whatever Lord Carlos said, he did.

After Seymour left, a missile launched from inside the Fei Yun.

The missile reached supersonic speed and shot Crab down in the blink of an eye.

"Sir, Crab has been successfully shot down."

Xiao Yun spoke to Ye Yun in the pilot's seat.

"Got it. Keep following Lily."

Ye Yun yawned and leaned back in the comfortable seat. "Xiao Yun, who do you think is prettier, Feiran or Xiang Mao?"

"I think Hexi is prettier."

Xiao Yun didn't directly answer Ye Yun's question.

Now that it had come to the world of Cosmic Star Gods, its calculations had led it to realize that each of the anime stored in the computer might well be a world beyond its imagination.

It might even follow its master to the universe where Link Click was set.

"Hexi? Is she pretty? I don't think so."

Ye Yun spread his hands.

"Hexi isn't just beautiful. She's powerful, and she's a woman of extraordinary intelligence." Xiao Yun explained why it thought Hexi was beautiful.

"Let me tell you, in the Divine River Universe where Link Click takes place, an artificial intelligence like you is trash. One of their students could probably take you out."

Ye Yun laughed.

"Stop talking. Let me have a moment of silence."

Xiao Yun fell silent. Ye Yun was telling the truth.

Hexi's student, Zhixin, was incredibly powerful. When it came to calculations alone, she could use her brain to calculate Xiao Yun to death.

"Why don't you comment on Jill, Lady Tian Nu Rui, the Empress, Medusa, Yun Yun, Princess Hong Lian, or Yan Lingji? They're all top-tier beauties!" Ye Yun couldn't understand why this artificial intelligence wouldn't comment on any of these beautiful characters.

"Those are historical or fantasy worlds. I only comment on beautiful women from modern or futuristic sci-fi settings!" Xiao Yun explained.

It was a technological product, after all. Naturally, it should be judging beautiful women from modern or futuristic sci-fi worlds.

There was no fun in commenting on beauties from alternate histories or Eastern fantasy worlds.

"Isn't Jill a sci-fi beauty? And the Empress?"

Hearing that, Ye Yun couldn't help laughing.

Wasn't Jill from Gun God Record a great beauty?

And wasn't the Empress from Reverse Dimension: AI Uprising a great beauty?

"Jill is powerful, sure, but she doesn't have Hexi's poise, strength, or intelligence, so I'm not commenting on her. The Empress? The Empress from Reverse Dimension? She's just an awakened intelligent code. She's not even as good as an Intelligent Being, let alone comparable to me. No, I still think Zi Feiyu is prettier. Oh, have you seen Invasion, from The Awakening of the Last Days? The girl named Ling in it is quite pretty too."

Artificial Intelligence Xiao Yun said, "If we ever travel to that world, you could trick her into being your girlfriend."

"You're a pretty improper artificial intelligence, aren't you? Believe me, when we get back, Feiran will take you apart."

Ye Yun looked at the artificial intelligence with an exasperated smile. Why was he starting to think it was a little improper?

"I was just joking."

Artificial Intelligence Xiao Yun gave an awkward laugh. Feiran was a super science genius. As long as Xiao Yun couldn't become a true intelligent life-form, Feiran would have plenty of ways to deal with it.

The Initial Source Code alone could keep it in line.

"I'm just kidding!"

Ye Yun didn't treat Artificial Intelligence Xiao Yun as a mere tool. It was half an intelligent life-form, after all. If he gave it the respect it deserved, it would respect him in turn.

"It's fine, it's fine. So which ones do you think are pretty?"

Xiao Yun's voice was cheerful. It didn't mind what Ye Yun had said and asked curiously.

"I think Pleasant Goat is pretty." Ye Yun held back the urge to laugh and said it with a straight face.

"My dearest master, Pleasant Goat is a 2D character. We're talking about 3D characters. That doesn't count, does it?"

Xiao Yun was speechless.

Pleasant Goat was, at best, a 2D character. They were talking about 3D characters now.

"Forget it. I really can't think of many beauties from sci-fi worlds."

Ye Yun gave an exasperated laugh.

Going by Xiao Yun's standards, he really couldn't think of any beauty from a sci-fi world whose knowledge, talent, and looks surpassed Hexi's.

If there was one, he simply hadn't heard of her.

"Hehe, I win this time!"

Xiao Yun said excitedly.

"Sure, sure, you win." Ye Yun smiled helplessly. "Don't get so caught up celebrating that you forget to fly. I'm putting my whole hundred-plus pounds in your hands."

"You're not even human."

Artificial Intelligence Xiao Yun knew just how powerful Ye Yun was.

He could turn an Intelligent Being that powerful into dust in an instant. Was he really afraid of a fall?

"Use the angels' terminology. I'm a god. Worship me, mortal."

Ye Yun was in the mood to joke with Xiao Yun.

Finding a starship was certainly exciting.

And he'd also found a great treasure.

The spaceship soon reached the place where the Ling Dong was.

Yaoyao, Dilu, and Xiao An saw a spaceship descending from the sky, along with a starship that looked exactly like the Ling Dong but was fully armed. They were stunned.

What was going on?

Why had a fully armed starship appeared?

Had the Federation sent a military force?

After Lily climbed down from the spaceship, Dilu, Yaoyao, and Xiao An hurried off the Ling Dong. Pointing at the Fei Yun, they asked nervously, "Lily, what on earth is going on?"

"Oh, we found this starship at our military base in the Yishi Highlands. Ye Yun took it."

Lily explained to the three children how it had all happened.

Hearing this,

Dilu didn't look excited or say that he wanted to go aboard and have a look. He swallowed hard. "H-he broke the law!"

He might not even be fifteen, but he was determined to become a pilot. Naturally, he knew the Federation's laws and the rules regarding a spaceship's activation and usage rights.

Whenever you bought a spaceship, the seller gave you its unique activation code and remotely registered it in the port's docking station network to prove that it was legally yours.

Without activating it with the code, you couldn't enter a spaceship docking station and travel to a planet's surface. If you were caught, it was illegal.

And this was a warship, for crying out loud.

An unregistered warship would cause a huge mess.

"When did you get so cowardly? I'm not scared, so what are you afraid of?"

The Fei Yun landed beside the Ling Dong. Its fully armed equipment made it far more imposing than the Ling Dong.

Ye Yun climbed down through the open rear hatch and looked speechlessly at the three children, who were frightened by what he'd done.

Even I'm not afraid, and I'm the one involved. What are you scared of?

"N-no, Brother Ye, you'll be executed if you're caught! We'll be sent to prison too. And y-you even took the nuclear bombs from their warehouse. Those are nuclear bombs!"

Xiao An was on the verge of tears.

You can't just drag us into this!

Even in the space age, humanity's most powerful weapons were still nuclear bombs and hydrogen bombs.

And you went and found a nuclear weapon on Venus.

You wouldn't just go to prison. You'd be executed.

"Relax, relax!"

Ye Yun saw that the three children were about to cry and spoke casually. "Don't worry, you won't be implicated. This military base looks like it's been abandoned for decades. Maybe they've forgotten about it. Just put your minds at ease."

The army that had once built a defensive line here had probably long since forgotten what was stored there.

It was even possible that

the entire unit had disappeared into history.

What was there to be afraid of?

"Boom, boom."

Just then, a whooshing sound rang out in the sky. Gaia and Tethys landed one after the other. Their yellow Electronic Eyes flashed as they spotted the starship beside the Ling Dong, and they strode over.

"Gaia, Tethys, did you find anything?"

Dilu looked up at the two Cosmic Star Gods.

As for what Ye Yun had done?

He'd completely forgotten about it.

"We haven't found anything yet!"

Gaia shook his head and looked toward the fully armed starship in the distance. The Ling Dong looked pathetic beside it. "Whose warship is that?"

"Mine. Do you have a problem with that?"

Ye Yun looked up at the two Cosmic Star Gods.

He hated having to look up to talk to these silicon-based life-forms.

"No!"

Gaia shrugged. He didn't have a problem with it.

Tethys, however, stared at him and asked, "Where did you get that warship?"

"Do I need to report that to you?"

Ye Yun laughed.

With that,

he walked straight toward his Fei Yun.

He was sure now that Tethys was openly hostile toward him.

There had been suspicion and accusation in his tone just now.

"You!"

Watching Ye Yun walk away, Tethys's voice held a hint of anger. Ye Yun was openly ignoring him.

"That's enough, Tethys. Ever since you met him, you've been hostile toward him. I don't know what he did to offend you, but if you show him any more hostility or keep looking at him with suspicion, then I'm sorry, but I can't continue this adventure with you to save your so-called universe. The Cosmic Star Gods may be powerful in the eyes of ordinary people like us, but the Federal Fleet could wipe you out with ease. If you can save the universe, then why couldn't the vast Federation do the same?"

As a woman, Lily was keenly perceptive of details. She stared coldly at Mercury God Tethys and spoke in a frigid voice.

From the moment Mercury God Tethys had met Ye Yun, she'd had the strange feeling that this Cosmic Star God was hostile toward him for some reason.

But Ye Yun was, in a sense, her "employee," so she needed to stand up for him. That was what a boss should do.
