Diamond: "Ji Yuan, Come Be the Board Chairman's Secretary!" [First Update]

On the one hand, he didn't suffer any losses, and on the other hand, he knew this was a decision the company would make. No matter how high Topaz's status was, he was just a high-level employee who could only follow orders from above.

When faced with attacks from Jingliu and others, he tried his best to remain restrained. Ji Yuan maintained a hostile stance towards the Interastral Peace Corporation, but he could communicate normally with these high-level employees who hadn't actually harmed him.

"Ratio is a technical consultant. Although the Erudition Society is actually a subsidiary of the company, it is nominally independent, so Ratio will not be affected. As for me, I've made such a huge fool of myself this time, so I'll probably be demoted. If I end up as a lowly employee on the Xianzhou, Ji Yuan, remember to help me out."

Topaz shrugged and said.

"Don't worry, I'm still the Trade Official of the Sky-Faring Commission."

Ji Yuan replied casually.

Topaz then continued, "As for Aventurine..."

Her tone was silent.

"If possible, I hope you can keep him imprisoned as a prisoner of war indefinitely."

"Why?"

"The company's methods are more ruthless than you can imagine. Aventurine's current actions have not only caused the company significant economic losses, but also damaged its image and wasted a lot of manpower. The company will never forgive Aventurine. If he returns to the company headquarters this time, he will be lucky to be a slave again. There may even be something more terrifying waiting for him. Compared to all of this, I would rather he be imprisoned as a prisoner of war."

Topaz spoke very seriously.

"I will consider that."

Ji Yuan did not make any promises, but wanted to think about it for a while.

"Thanks."

Seeing Ji Yuan thinking like this, Topaz sincerely thanked him.

Ji Yuan was truly an outstanding person. When facing enemies, he could be despicable and shameless, resorting to any means necessary; but after the war ended, he reverted to being that kind-hearted boy.

After exchanging a few words with Topaz, Nguyen Mai handed him a report.

"Come on, do you see if there's anything else to add?"

Nguyen Mai said to him.

"Um."

Ji Yuan nodded, then picked up the report and began to read it.

This contains records of Firefly's physical data and the energy she demonstrated in actual combat.

Ruan Mei had written many reports, and Ji Yuan really had nothing to add. However, when he saw the last line, his expression became somewhat unnatural.

[... The experimental subject, Firefly, underwent a slight change in posture, suggesting that mating had occurred. This could be due to the influence of the energy from the Immortal Path.]

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

At this moment, Firefly also came closer to Ji Yuan and asked curiously.

She followed Ji Yuan's gaze and saw Ruan Mei's last line of writing. She immediately covered her face and blushed.

Nguyen Mai watched from the side with a strange expression.

Ji Yuan quickly handed the report back.

"Teacher, let's discuss these report contents when we get back."

"Um."

Nguyen Mai nodded with a faint smile.

Just as Ji Yuan was preparing to go back, the system's achievement notification finally rang in his mind.

[You have formed a very intimate relationship with the Stellaron Hunter and Emanator of Abundance, Firefly. Firefly's heart is devoted to you until death, and her body is deeply attached to you. Therefore, the system rewards you with one opportunity to directly confront a random Star God.]

Ah!?

Upon seeing this reward, Ji Yuan was stunned by this double surprise.

First of all, Firefly was saved by herself. She would no longer be a corpse, nor would she be troubled by Entropy Loss Syndrome; she would be a true Emanator of Abundance. All her efforts had finally paid off.

He felt an indescribable excitement.

The second surprise is the reward given by the system.

Ji Yuan opened the reward.

Last time I saw the Erudition Aeon, which star god will I see next?

Thinking this way, he suddenly realized a problem.

What if the star god that appears later is Nanook?

Have I done nothing but deal with His Emanator? What should I do when He strikes me twice after He comes out?

Just as he was feeling so tense, a deep and ancient vibration slowly appeared around him.

Then,

A huge stone statue, shining with golden light, appeared before Ji Yuan.

He breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the star god.

The Keeper of the Celestial Forge, who mends the Aeon Klippefort of Preservation.

Fine.

She is a kind star god.

As he thought this, he suddenly felt his body slowly rise and soon arrived near Klippefort Aeon's head.

This sudden change left everyone present stunned.

"Again, another Star God is going to see my brother."

Sushang murmured to herself.

In the distance of the galaxy, the diamond's spaceship arrived.

From afar, Diamond and Phantylia both saw that towering figure standing in the entire galaxy.

"The Amber Lord!?"

Diamond looked at Phantylia with a surprised and suspicious gaze.

Meanwhile, Phantylia, standing to the side, also had a somewhat blank expression.

Has Ji Yuan been favored by yet another star god?

After her initial surprise, Diamond felt a little embarrassed.

Their company takes the orders of the Amber Lord as its primary standard, and now the Amber Lord has instructed Ji Yuan to pay homage to Him.

This put the company employees, who had just been attacking Ji Yuan, in an extremely awkward situation.

Chapter 205 Diamond: Ji Yuan, Why Don't You Be the Chairman's Secretary? [First Update]

After feeling awkward at first, Diamond realized that this seemed to be the best way to handle the situation.

It was even better than making his two trusted subordinates, Aventurine and Topaz, take the blame.

If an outsider causes the company to lose face, what are some solutions?

First, eliminate the person who embarrassed the company. However, this idea was absolutely impossible given that Phantylia appeared before him, Marshal Hua visited the company, and Screwllum and Herta were secretly supporting Ji Yuan behind the scenes.

Unless he intends to start a massive war that could change the entire universe.

If the Interastral Peace Corporation were to wage war against the aforementioned forces, the Abundance Followers and the Anti-Matter Legion would probably be laughing all the way to the bank.

Secondly, it's about turning outsiders into insiders.

No matter what embarrassment the company suffered before, it can now be attributed to internal conflicts.

With so many departments in a company, some competition between them is perfectly normal. Even if it gets publicized, it's not a big deal.

Diamond isn't worried about whether the rest of the company will agree.

The Amber Lord has agreed, does anyone have any objections?

Having gained face and acquired the Imaginary Collapse Pulse Technology, all the previous expenditures can be used for the losses incurred in researching this technology.

"Hmm... we could even ask for more funds, under the guise of building that planet. After all, that planet is now considered the place where the Amber Lord manifests, and as his followers, it's only natural for us to build on the place where He appears."

He didn't want these funds to embezzle the money.

He is not short of money.

He simply wanted the Strategic Investment Department to receive more attention from the company, have more funds at its disposal, and thus gain more initiative in the company's senior management meetings.

Before seeing the Amber Lord, Diamond was quite conflicted about what to do next. Now, after seeing the Amber Lord, he suddenly realized that he had much more room to maneuver.

He immediately contacted the company headquarters, ready to bring up the matter here and discuss it with others.

Of course, he didn't mention that the company had encountered a major setback, and that the person who caused the setback was actually summoned by the Amber Lord.

Instead, it was Ji Yuan, a young man from Xianzhou, who collaborated with the company to develop Imaginary Collapse Pulse Technology, and gained the favor of the Amber Lord...

Phantylia, seeing Diamond's action from the side, couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

It seems that the outcome could be a win-win situation.

"Yes, remember to tell Ji Yuan that I was the one who taught Diamond all of this, which is why things here were able to end smoothly."

Phantylia thought to himself.

Ji Yuan was unaware of the arrival of Phantylia and Diamond at the moment. He was facing the Aeon Klippefort of Preservation, and was extremely uneasy.

This was the third star god he had seen.

The Erudition Star Erudition Aeon, the One Who Ascended from a Computer, felt that He could see through everything except the system itself.

I just saw the Aeon of Permanence, but it was just a Remembrance. The dragon doesn't see me. I'm just an observer, watching its grandeur.

Now, upon seeing the Aeon Klippefort of Preservation, he clearly felt a profound sense of weight. This weight came from two sources: firstly, the Aeon of Preservation's immense Preservation energy, which was beyond his comprehension; and secondly, Ji Yuan could also sense the weight of history emanating from the Aeon of Preservation.

Aeon Klippefort of Preservation, is one of the oldest known star gods.

His heavy, rocky right hand stretched out so that Ji Yuan could stand on His palm.

"Lord Amber Lord..."

Just as Ji Yuan was about to say something, Klippefort Aeon raised his other hand, and a golden light appeared in it.

He crashed down heavily.

The immense power made Ji Yuan almost think that Klippefort Aeon was going to reduce him to ashes.

But then he thought, if Klippefort Aeon really wanted to kill him, he wouldn't need to waste all this effort. He'd probably just glance at him and he'd explode.

Really,

After His fist landed, Ji Yuan did not feel any pain. On the contrary, he felt a Preservation energy enter his right thumb.

Upon closer inspection, Ji Yuan noticed a thin, yellowish-brown line around his thumb.

Just like the blessing that Erudition Aeon gave himself back then.

"What is the purpose of this?"

Ji Yuan pondered this in his heart, then looked up at Klippefort Aeon, wanting to know the answer to this question.

However, when he looked up to ask Klippefort Aeon a question, Klippefort Aeon deliberately exuded an aura that prevented Ji Yuan from opening his mouth.

Obviously,

Klippefort Aeon didn't want to answer Ji Yuan's question right now, and didn't even want to say anything more.

He simply appeared before Ji Yuan bestowed blessings upon him.

Just as Ji Yuan thought that Klippefort Aeon was leaving after bestowing upon him a blessing whose effects he did not yet understand, Klippefort Aeon once again released a golden light that surrounded Ji Yuan.

Ji Yuan examined it carefully and discovered that the golden light was a suit of armor bestowed upon him by Klippefort Aeon.

The shape, style, and size can be customized, and it contains the blessing of Klippefort Aeon. As Ji Yuan's strength increases, the armor's defensive power will gradually increase.

Ji Yuan assessed his current strength. Wearing this armor, he could have dealt with the Interastral Peace Corporation's fleet without needing the Imaginary Collapse Pulse. Unless he was unlucky enough to be hit in one spot by a simultaneous attack from the fleet, the company's warships would have no way to penetrate Ji Yuan's armor.

The key point is that this defense does not consume Ji Yuan's power at all.
