Ji Yuan and Tingyun Finally Reunited, Part 1 / Facing Encirclement, Naturally You Call for Airstrikes, Part 2

He obediently led Ji Yuan towards the direction of the small spaceship.

Chapter 159 Ji Yuan and Tingyun are finally reunited [First Update]

Jarilo -VI, Belobog.

Ji Yuan and Sparkle sneaked in quietly.

The city, surrounded by ice and snow, is now under heavy security.

The Silvermane Guards patrolled the streets in groups, carefully checking every pedestrian.

Seeing this, Sparkle crossed her arms and complained, "It's only been two days, and I didn't expect the security here to be so tight. If we're discovered, you'd better protect me. If those soldiers catch me, they'll definitely write a doujinshi about it."

Ji Yuan rolled her eyes at her. "I think you deserve it. If you hadn't taken Bronya to outer space, why would they be so defensive?"

"Hey, hey, hey, I clearly delivered a beautiful woman to you, and you're repaying kindness with enmity?"

Sparkle argues with Ji Yuan.

The sound of the two arguing immediately attracted the attention of the nearby Silvermane Guards.

They immediately went to the alley where Ji Yuan and Sparkle were.

Leading the group was a blond youth, about the same height as Ji Yuan, dressed in full armor, with a massive shield on his back that was even taller than him. Upon seeing Ji Yuan and Sparkle, he immediately frowned and asked, "Who exactly are you two?"

Ji Yuan and Sparkle looked quite different from the people in Belobog, and their clothes were completely different as well. Upon seeing the two of them, the blond youth immediately realized that something was wrong.

Ji Yuan produced a replica of the Zhi Li Sword and said to the blond youth, "Although I really wanted to make up a reason for you on the spot, I don't think you would accept it. So, please take a nap first."

After saying that, he slammed the blond youth down in front of him.

The Zhi Li Sword was a heavy sword, Ji Yuan's swing immediately put immense pressure on the young man. He quickly raised his shield high to prepare for Ji Yuan's strike.

The moment Ji Yuan's slash landed, the young man's figure was forced to retreat rapidly backward. Behind him, the Silvermane Guards soldiers were also pulled backward by his retreating figure and were directly blasted away.

Only the young man stood firmly on the ground, taking the attack head-on. This surprised Ji Yuan somewhat, but it was only for a moment. In the next second, he drew the Sky Dome Longsword with his left hand, transforming it into a soft whip that bypassed the shield and struck the young man directly in the abdomen with the blade.

Bang!

With this heavy blow, the young man fell to the ground.

Ji Yuan pulled the Sparkle aside and walked away into the distance.

Lying on the ground, the young man looked in the direction where Ji Yuan and the others had left, and said through gritted teeth, "Quickly, go and inform Lady Cocolia."

"Yes, Lord Gepard."

Those Silvermane Guards who were lightly injured were quickly informed of Great Guardian Cocolia. Once Gepard had recovered sufficiently, he immediately headed to the Great Guardian's office, Klippefort, named after the Aeon of Preservation.

After walking in, he arrived at the spacious office hall.

At the far end of the office hall, a stunningly beautiful blonde woman stood with eyes filled with coldness and sharpness. Seeing Gepard approach, she frowned and asked, "I just received word from your subordinates that you were defeated by an outsider?"

"Yes, Lady Cocolia." Gepard nodded. "I suspect those people are connected to Miss Bronya's disappearance."

"Yes, that's what I think too. Right now, they should have fled into the lower city, just like those women last time." Cocolia then issued a military order to Gepard.

"I sent men to investigate the lower city through that passage. Now those people in the lower city are gathered together, seemingly planning to come out through the passage and cause trouble for us. I order you to assemble the Silvermane Guards now and prepare to wipe them out at the exit."

"Yes."

Gepard nodded vigorously.

He then turned and left to gather the Silvermane Guards.

Ji Yuan and Sparkle traveled from the lower city to the upper city via the passage that transported minerals from the lower city.

The two people squeezed onto a small minecart, moving rapidly down the track. At that moment, the system's voice appeared in Ji Yuan's mind.

[You have defeated Gepard Landau, the legendary commander and garrison officer of the Jarilo Silvermane Guards, aka Arillow. The system rewards you with +5 to Defense.]

Seeing Ji Yuan in a daze, Sparkle asked him, "What's wrong? Is something the matter?"

"It's nothing." Ji Yuan shook his head at Sparkle, then pointed around and asked Sparkle, "By the way, Sparkle, I heard before that the upper and lower districts are separated here, but I don't know what life is like in the lower district."

"Hmph, who can live well underground except for insects and rats? You're not going to have a good time again and renovate this place, are you?"

"Yes."

Ji Yuan nodded.

He's an extremely kind person to begin with, and reforming others is a piece of cake for him. Given that ability, why wouldn't he do it?

"You're too kind. Fine, I'll give you a map of the lower city later, consider it a favor."

Sparkle waved his hand and said.

Ji Yuan nodded.

What exactly is Sparkle trying to do?

Then, sitting on the mine cart, he immediately sent a message to Tingyun.

[Ji Yuan: I'm here, I'll be in the lower city soon.]

Soon, the message about the Tingyun came back.

[Tingyun: Okay, I'll be waiting for you down here.]

In the Robot Settlement, Clara, a little girl, and Xing and March 7th, who were observing the small machines with Tingyun, stopped what they were doing when they saw Tingyun holding a phone and a happy smile on his face.

Clara asked March 7th and Star, "Sister Star, Sister March 7th, what's wrong with Sister Tingyun?"

March 7th glanced helplessly at Tingyun, then patted Clara's head and said, "Judging from her expression, her boyfriend probably texted her again. Ugh, this awful stench of romance."

"The stench of love?" Clara asked, puzzled, before turning to look at the tall robot following behind them.

"Mr. Svarog, do you understand?"

Svarog shook his head.

"There is no such record in the database..."

"I see..." Clara nodded.

At this moment, Tingyun clapped her hands and said to March 7th and the others, "Let's go, let's go back now."

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

March 7th asked in confusion.

"Ji Yuan, he's coming!" Tingyun's face lit up with an extremely happy smile.

She waited day and night, and the thing she longed for most finally happened.

"Ah? He's really here? Quick, let's go see him." Upon hearing that Ji Yuan was coming, March 7th was happy for Tingyun.

So Tingyun and the others immediately headed towards the passage. Clara and Svarog followed behind.

Because Tingyun and the others had traveled from the upper city to the lower city while they were conscious, they knew where the passage was. Soon, they arrived at the passage.

As soon as they arrived at the passage, before March 7th and Xing could even speak, they heard the rumbling sound of mine carts moving forward.

"They're here! They're here!"

Tingyun from turning upwards.

With a whoosh, the minecart carrying Sparkle and Ji Yuan appeared before everyone.

Upon seeing Ji Yuan, Tingyun immediately rushed out. Ji Yuan, upon seeing Tingyun, also leaped off the minecart.

Good heavens!

Sparkle was speechless at Ji Yuan's behavior.

At this moment, Ji Yuan was already embracing Tingyun.

Tingyun held Ji Yuan tightly, wishing she could tear him to pieces and mash him into her own body. Although their separation hadn't been long, they had experienced far too much during that time, including several brushes with death.

Tingyun hugged Ji Yuan tightly, not wanting to let go at all. If there weren't other people around, especially a child like Clara, Tingyun probably would have held Ji Yuan down and kissed her forcefully.

Even if they didn't do it so intensely, Tingyun still held Ji Yuan tightly.

Ji Yuan's embrace of Tingyun was anything but gentle. Having weathered so much danger over the long period, holding Tingyun now brought him a profound sense of peace.

Sparkle coughed a few times, completely ruining the exciting atmosphere of the reunion.

Facing the angry glares from Ji Yuan and Tingyun, Sparkle shrugged.

Are you kidding me? While the two of them are excited about their reunion, the other women are just watching from the sidelines, trying to create a lively atmosphere. Their joy is theirs, and they're the ones getting fed dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing a public display of affection). That's not in line with the Masked Fool's motto.

Sparkle said to Ji Yuan, "I think we've had enough. It's quite cold here. Let's go into town and talk more."

"Really."

Xing nodded as well.

She didn't want to eat dog food either.

Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, and knowing that staying here would only incur their wrath, Ji Yuan had no choice but to obediently walk towards Boulder Town with Tingyun.

At the same time, he couldn't help but glance at Xing and March 7th.

These two are the main character and the mascot of the game, respectively. Their true power is probably terrifying, and it's unclear how to utilize it.

Ji Yuan hadn't decided yet, so he glanced at it and moved on.

Let's take care of Tingyun's feelings first.

Tingyun hugged Ji Yuan's arm and rested her head on Ji Yuan's shoulder, not wanting to let go at all.

Behind them, March 7th, Sparkle, and Hoshi all looked at them with speechless expressions.

March 7th silently grumbled, "I used to think Miss Tingyun was reluctant to leave the train, but now it seems we should let her go as soon as possible. In the future, we can contact her by phone if we miss her."

"Yes, I feel the same way."

Xing also agrees.

The expressions on the faces of the group varied as they quickly arrived at Boulder Town.

This is the area with the most buildings and the largest population in the lower part of Belobog. When Ji Yuan and his group arrived here, several people from Boulder Town came out to greet them.

"Doctor Natasha, you've arrived!"

Upon seeing the visitors, March 7th greeted them happily.

Chapter 160 Faced with encirclement, of course, air strikes must be called in. [Second Update]

Natasha glanced at Ji Yuan, then said to Tingyun in a joking tone:

"I saw that you were heading towards the Robot Settlement, but you suddenly changed direction. I was wondering what had happened. Now it seems that something good has happened."

Ji Yuan was a little embarrassed, but Tingyun openly took Ji Yuan's arm, revealing their identities.

The other members who were with Natasha couldn't help but laugh when they saw this.

After everyone had finished laughing, Tingyun quickly said, "Yes, my boyfriend has come to pick me up, and I'm afraid I'll be leaving soon. Incidentally, the problems here will also be completely resolved. Soon, the issues in the Underworld will be solved."

Beside Natasha, a blue-haired girl asked with some doubt, "Will his arrival solve the problem? How does he plan to do it?"

Upon hearing the girl's question, the elderly man following behind Natasha quickly said, "Seele, Mr. Ji Yuan has just arrived in the Underworld. Don't ask at this time."

"All right."

Seele nodded.

However, Ji Yuan spoke directly, saying, "Of course, just attack directly. Why overthink it? It all comes down to actual combat."

Hearing his words, Seele glanced at him a few times. She then turned to Natasha and said:

"You see, as an outsider on whom you place high hopes, you think the same way I do. In my opinion, don't worry about all that nonsense, just rush up and defeat that so-called Great Guardian, and then restore the connection between the Upper District and Underworld."

In Seele's view, instead of considering various plans, it was better to just go straight into battle. They had already concentrated all the forces of the Underworld of Belobog; what couldn't they accomplish?

Hearing Seele say that, Ji Yuan waved his hand at her. "No, what I mean by 'starting a fight directly' is completely different from what you mean by 'starting a fight'."
