Ruan Mei & Jingliu: We Can't Let Herta See Himeyuan [First Update]

"I think that's highly unlikely."

"Screwllum said with a smile."

On the other side, Topaz recognized it immediately as Screwllum. Upon seeing it, he thought that the matter of those Interastral Peace Corporation employees being attacked would have to be dropped.

Topaz said to Screwllum, "My employees offended you today, and you have already given them a small punishment. Hopefully, this will calm your anger."

"So what if we get beaten up? Let's not get hurt again." Topaz said, his intention being to prevent Screwllum from attacking them again.

However, upon hearing Topaz's words, Screwllum shook his head.

"It was already like this when I arrived here. It was the lady in the rest pod who took them down."

Miss?

Isn't it Screwllum?

Upon hearing this, Topaz clenched his fist.

She wanted to see who it was.

Ji Yuan wasn't that nervous.

Judging from Screwllum's tone, a fight is unlikely to break out.

Safety is still the top priority.

They walked together into the cabin.

The spaceship wasn't very large, and Ji Yuan and his group quickly made their way to the depths of the cabin. Inside, a woman was carefully examining a vase placed in the cabin.

Upon seeing her, Ji Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Perhaps...

Just as Ji Yuan felt the tension on his side subside, the anger of Teacher Ruan Mei, who had been calm until now, was gradually rising, and Ji Yuan felt that she might explode at any moment.

"Jingliu, how did you get here?"

Ruan Mei asked the woman in front of her, who was also Ji Yuan's other teacher Jingliu.

"Of course I'm here to see my little apprentice. And while I'm at it, I'll hitch a ride too." Jingliu stepped up to Ji Yuan at this moment, a smile on his lips, and tried to reach out and lift Ji Yuan's chin with his finger.

However, just as she reached out her finger, Ruan Mei's finger appeared in front of Ji Yuan and blocked it.

Ji Yuan sensed that two storms were about to converge around him.

Chapter 150 Ruan Mei & Jingliu: We can't let the Herta see Ji Yuan [First Update]

"You really have a lot of nerve. We're not far from the Luofu Starfaring Vessel. Aren't you afraid the Cloud Knights will come and arrest you?"

Nguyen Mai spoke gently to Jingliu.

However, his eyes were filled with a strong murderous intent.

Unfortunately, Jingliu was wearing an eye patch, so Ruan Mei's gaze had no effect on her at all.

Jing Liu said with a slight disdain, "I do hope that the Luo Fu Cloud Cavalry has the ability to capture me."

As the only Cloud Knights present, Sushang stood to the side, hands on her hips, speechless. What does your argument have to do with me, a Cloud Knights?

Ruan Mei then tried to grab Ji Yuan's hand and lead him to his seat. However, this time it was Jingliu who reached out and grabbed Ruan Mei's wrist.

Ruan Mei leaned close to Ji Yuan's ear and blew a breath. "Ji Yuan, you see? Such violence can only be effective for a short time. Only scientific truth is something we must always pursue."

Jingliu said with a smile in Ji Yuan's other ear.

"Violence may not be the truth, but it can make others believe that you are the truth. In the entire galaxy, those who have the last laugh are not those who possess the most truth, but those who are the most powerful."

"So, which side do you most want to stand on right now?"

Jingliu and Ruan Mei spoke simultaneously in Ji Yuan's ear.

Then the two of them sat in two seats on the left and right sides of the cabin.

Ruan Mei's voice was gentle, Jingliu's voice was cold and clear, clearly indicating that Ji Yuan was about to make a choice.

Ji Yuan's gaze involuntarily fell upon Sushang Huohuo, and Qingni, and even glanced at Topaz. However, faced with this situation, even the boldest of them Sushang, wore a look of fear and retreated repeatedly.

"Brother, it's not that I don't want to help you, I'm just really afraid of dying."

Sushang thought to herself.

Ji Yuan's gaze finally fell on Screwllum, who walked in afterward.

He quickly moved closer to Screwllum and said to him, "Mr. Screwllum, I've heard that you are a master of mechanics and programming. I'm also curious about this. Could you tell me about it?"

His expression was so urgent that for a moment, Screwllum almost felt that Ji Yuan truly had a fanatical love for mechanics and programming. However, he then looked at Ruan Mei and Jingliu sitting not far away and roughly guessed the reason for the matter.

"They're using me as a shield, aren't they?" Screwllum's mechanical face. He wouldn't be afraid in a fight with anyone else, but facing these two women, Screwllum couldn't help but feel scared.

However, seeing that both Jingliu and Ruan Mei were looking this way, and glancing at the pitiful Ji Yuan, he still couldn't bear to put him in such a chaotic situation.

"Perfect timing. I've heard you're also involved in programming, hacking, and other technologies. I'm curious to see your expertise in these areas."

He pulled Ji Yuan to a corner seat.

Ruan Mei turned her gaze to Jingliu, and Jingliu, following her aura, also looked towards Ruan Mei. Neither of them had expected Ji Yuan to choose to flee at this moment. Ruan Mei let out a soft chuckle, then slowly walked to Jingliu's side.

"It seems that Ji Yuan also knows that what he should pursue is the truth." Ruan Mei said to Jingliu with a smile in her eyes, "After all, I have spent more time with Ji Yuan and naturally have more time to educate him. Therefore, he is still very clear about this."

She was still somewhat worried about Ji Yuan wanting to learn Screwllum's techniques, but it wasn't that important compared to Jingliu. Besides, Ji Yuan hadn't shown enough hacking talent yet.

Jingliu grinned. "Really? That's perfect. I'll find an opportunity to take him away. Then he can experience the real brutality of the battlefield and he'll naturally understand which aspect is better."

She whispered defiantly in Nguyen May's ear, "What you can do, I can do too. And I'll definitely be better than you?"

"Really? Then I seriously doubt whether you can handle a sword with that hand." Ruan Mei said, then took out a snack box from her side, slowly took out a snack from it and handed it to Jingliu.

"At least, it's more stable than holding a test tube."

Jingliu didn't dare take the pastries Ruan Mei offered. She tried to pull something out, but found she couldn't. Jingliu never kept anything on her person; after cutting down the Zephyro last time, she gave the fragments directly to Ji Yuan.

The two people stared at each other through their blindfolds.

Suddenly, Ji Yuan and the others present felt the temperature drop significantly, turning the area into a frozen wasteland.

Feeling the cold, Huohuo's tail whispered, "We're supposed to be going to Belobog, a world covered in ice and snow. Is this some kind of early training exercise for us?"

As soon as it uttered those words, the temperature around it seemed to drop several degrees. Its tail shivered, and it quickly shrank behind Huohuo, not daring to utter another word.

It's absolutely terrifying.

Ji Yuan felt that he would be torn to pieces if he wasn't careful. He turned to look at Screwllum and immediately asked, "Mr. Screwllum, could you teach me about hacking? I only watched Silver Wolf last time and learned her attack methods."

"Really? Then let me see Ji Yuan's cyberattack methods." Screwllum was also somewhat interested when he heard Ji Yuan's words. He took out two handheld computers and handed one to Ji Yuan.

"Let me think about which target is more suitable. Hmm, let's use the firewall from Interastral Peace Corporation."

Topaz listened from the side, then looked at Screwllum with a wry smile, "Mr. Screwllum, although the network is not within my scope of responsibility, it is difficult for me to explain to the company's employees that I was going to attack the company's firewall."

"I understand." Screwllum nodded, then turned to Ji Yuan and said, "It seems the company is unwilling to do this, so we'll have to use me as the target."

"Hmm." Ji Yuan nodded, then without saying a word, quickly picked up his handheld computer, located the network location of Screwllum, and began the attack.

Topaz breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

Fortunately, Mr. Screwllum is quite humane. If Ruan Mei had been in this position, she probably would have told Ji Yuan to take action directly.

Thinking back to Ruan Mei's experiment and Ji Yuan's performance just now, Topaz couldn't help but think to himself that the most humane person in the entire Genius Society was actually a robot.

Ji Yuan and Screwllum were unaware of and unconcerned about Topaz's thoughts. Once he got his hands on the computer, he quickly began operating it. His basic computer knowledge was limited to a programmer's level. However, in the realm of attack, Ji Yuan possessed the masterful attack techniques of a Silver Wolf a century later.

Screwllum's personal website was caught off guard by Ji Yuan's initial defensive maneuver. He initially felt he had overestimated Ji Yuan's skills, treating him on the same level as Silver Wolf, but in the actual fight, he discovered that Ji Yuan's attacks were even more ferocious than Silver Wolf's.

His defenses were quickly breached. Even after he added network-based defenses, they were still crumbling under Ji Yuan's electronic attacks. The stalemate lasted half an hour, with Screwllum finally managing to hold his ground.

"Screwllum, I've lost."

"No, I should be the one who lost." Screwllum at the computer and said, "My website has been constantly reinforced, while you decided to attack at the last minute. We were not even on the same starting line. If you can do this, then I have lost."

He looked at Ji Yuan with some disbelief and said, "I heard from Ruan Mei that you mastered the attack technique in a very short time, but this technique has already surpassed that of the Silver Wolf. If I didn't know that the Erudition Aeon was still alive, I would have suspected that you were the reincarnation of the Erudition Aeon. To be able to learn and improve after seeing it only once is truly an extraordinary talent."

Ji Yuan felt a little embarrassed by what Screwllum said.

At this moment, Screwllum picked up the computer again and said to Ji Yuan, "Now you can show me your other hacking skills, right?"

Ji Yuan took these and immediately said to Screwllum, "My understanding of the others is really only at a basic level. Silver Wolf has never shown me anything."

"Just do it yourself."

Ji Yuan nodded and then began to operate the computer.

His movements this time were quite ordinary, Screwllum mentally assessed him, thinking he had just mastered the basics. This level would be considered expert in most places, but in ScrewGumm's eyes, it was merely a solid foundation.

"Okay, I'll teach you some other basic knowledge."

Screwllum picked up the computer and started operating it in front of Ji Yuan.

He completed one step and gestured for Ji Yuan to do as he instructed.

Ji Yuan also followed Screwllum's actions step by step.

At first, his movements were quite ordinary, even a bit slow for someone of his talent, in Screwllum's eyes. Just as he was feeling somewhat disappointed, Ji Yuan's movements began to quicken.

And it's getting faster and faster.

[You and Screwllum's Planet, the lord of Screwllum and a member of the Genius Society, are learning hacking techniques. The system rewards you with +10 hacking experience points from Screwllum.]

Ji Yuan's mind conjured up images of numerous hacker operations.

Once he got the hang of it, he gradually adapted to computer operation, and his speed became faster and faster.

Screwllum's eyes lit up.

Not far from him, Ruan Mei and Jingliu Liu could clearly see that Ji Yuan's striking movements were exceptionally fast.

He learned something new.

The two men's expressions became much more serious.

Jingliu raised an eyebrow and asked Ruan Mei, "How long did he study before?"

"I probably studied with Silver Wolf for a few hours."

Nguyen Mai answered slowly.

The two of them couldn't help but curse inwardly, "How come Ji Yuan has such talent?"

Peerless swordsmen, life scientists, fortune tellers, sorcerers—now should we add hackers and mechanical repair masters to the mix?

Is there any talent in this world that he doesn't have?

Jingliu at Screwllum, his hand unconsciously resting on the hilt of his sword. "Do you need me to give him..."

"Not yet," Ruan Mei smiled. "His interest in hacking is clearly not as great as his interest in life sciences and swordsmanship. So, there's no need to kill Screwllum for now. And..."

Ruan Mei didn't finish her sentence, but Jingliu guessed what she was thinking.

Ji Yuan's physical development is already stronger than that of ordinary people, and now that he has eaten the Vermilion Fruit, the attraction of the opposite sex to him is definitely much greater than that of the hacker Ji Shui.

Although their voices weren't loud, Screwllum could hear them clearly.

He felt a chill on his neck.

But when he looked at Ji Yuan in front of him again, the chill he felt vanished instantly.

Such a quick learning ability! Screwllum instantly understood Ruan Mei's feelings. If there were someone you could have a great conversation with about science and technology, you would really be willing to give them all the good things in the world.

He adjusted his monocle.

Screwllum invited Ji Yuan: "Ji Yuan, would you be interested in visiting Screwllum's Planet? It's full of mechanical life forms there. There are even large robots that are tens or hundreds of meters tall."

He knew more about boys' preferences than Nguyen Mai and Jingliu.

It's hard to say who would win between a pretty girl and a beautiful Gundam.

"Really? Of course..." Ji Yuan was about to agree when two icy auras suddenly arrived. Ji Yuan immediately gave an awkward smile.

"I'll go again when I have the chance."

Screwllum nodded.

Although, he also really wanted to invite Ji Yuan to go directly there.

But...
