My Honkai: Star Rail System Was Early Chapter 50

As soon as she finished speaking, Ji Yuan slowly opened his eyes.

"So, what's the answer?"

Seeing Ji Yuan wake up, Ruan Mei asked him.

Although there had been some twists and turns just now, Ruan Mei believed Ji Yuan would give the expected answer.

However, this time, Ji Yuan gave her the opposite reply.

"I want to stay here."

"Hmm?"

Ruan Mei raised an eyebrow, showing confusion. Phantylia, standing nearby, smirked upon hearing Ji Yuan's words. However, she still felt a bit frustrated. It had taken the combined efforts of herself, Sushang, Huohuo, and Yanqing to suppress Ruan Mei this time. To completely crush Ji Yuan's will, more effort would be needed.

Sushang said with great arrogance, laughing heartily, "Hahaha, I told you, big brother definitely wouldn't become some bookworm who only knows research."

As she said this, Ji Yuan firmly knocked her on the head.

"While I won't be leaving with Ms. Ruan Mei, my research in biology still needs to continue. Furthermore, I need to keep a close eye on your studies too."

Upon hearing that Ji Yuan intended to supervise her studies, Sushang immediately showed a fearful expression.

Ji Yuan looked at the confused Ruan Mei and continued, "My intention to stay here temporarily is for another attempt. I want to integrate the Luofu's techniques and other methods into my biological research. Teacher Ruan Mei, besides my talent in biological sciences, my skills in techniques are also not bad."

This was an excuse fabricated by the virtual Ruan Mei, fitting her personality, for Ji Yuan.

"Yes, yes. Being able to create techniques that control Suiyang, Teacher is definitely a genius in this area. I believe that your research into techniques will surely yield achievements no less than your research into life sciences,"

Huohuo nodded vigorously, agreeing with Ji Yuan.

As she finished speaking, she deliberately tilted her gaze upwards to meet Ruan Mei's eyes.

Although her legs were trembling with fear, Huohuo's gaze did not waver at all.

Ji Yuan patted Huohuo's small head, then looked at Ruan Mei.

"Teacher Ruan Mei, I've already formed a concept in my mind. Please guide me from the side."

"Alright, then let's head back inside the ship,"

Ruan Mei didn't say much more. She grabbed Ji Yuan's hand and they headed back towards her ship.

Ji Yuan glanced at Phantylia and the others.

"You guys go back first. I'll return later tonight."

"You're not going to sneak away, are you?"

Phantylia asked Ji Yuan.

"How could I? Ms. Ruan Mei's ship isn't repaired yet, it's not in a state where we can leave," Ji Yuan shook his head.

He glanced at Phantylia, his eyes filled with a certain eagerness.

Thinking about how he could not only gain achievements from her but also steal her power just as she was about to succeed – how thrilling would that be?

He felt a surge of excitement in his heart.

Ji Yuan and Ruan Mei boarded the spaceship. Ruan Mei quickly took out all the materials on the ship and looked at Ji Yuan.

"Is there anything else you need?"

"This is enough."

Ji Yuan looked at the experimental materials, feeling they should be sufficient. Without further ado, he began the creation process.

He was about to start creating information markers. With Phantylia outside, he was transmitting the situation here.

It was information that only he and Ruan Mei could understand.

"Since messages are being transmitted here anyway, it's only natural for me to communicate with others as well,"

Ji Yuan thought to himself.

While waiting for a reaction in the test tube, he took out the phone that only he and Tingyun could see.

He wanted to inquire about her situation and tell her that if necessary, she could seek help from Herta.

As for whether Ruan Mei or Phantylia, who might be peeking, would discover it, Ji Yuan wasn't worried at all.

They were conducting scientific research, and a few eccentricities during the process weren't that unusual, right?

[Ji Yuan: Tingyun, how are things on your end?]

After a long while, Tingyun's reply finally appeared.

[Tingyun: Mm, I've successfully infiltrated the Herta Space Station. I found a random identity and applied for a cleaning job here. This little one is exhausted.]

She then sent a pitiful-looking emoji.

Ji Yuan felt a pang of sympathy.

Just as he was about to offer comfort, Tingyun's message appeared again.

[Tingyun: Several robotic vacuum cleaners need commands every day, it's too much trouble.]

[Ji Yuan: ...]

"Alright, enough joking. I'll keep myself well hidden on the Herta Space Station. You, on the other hand, need to be careful about your own safety."

Ji Yuan remembered his purpose and immediately typed to her:

"My safety is well guaranteed. I'm messaging you to let you know that I've already smoothed things over with the Herta Space Station. You can ask for help if you need it."

"How did you smooth things over with the Herta Space Station? I'd really like to know who it was."

"Ms. Herta."

Hearing Ji Yuan's reply, Tingyun seemed taken aback. She didn't reply for several seconds.

After a while, she responded:

"Are you kidding me with your girlfriend?"

"Tingyun, I'm not lying."

"How did you manage that?"

"Me? I just found a teacher named Ruan Mei."

"Is there anything you can't do?"

"It was just a bit of coincidence and a tiny bit of talent."

His expression was so 'modest' that Ruan Mei, standing beside him, felt a pang of confusion.

The creation process hasn't even started yet?

Why is he so happy?

After a few more exchanges, he put his phone in his pocket. Tingyun went back to managing the cleaning robots, preparing to tidy up.

Just then, a short, dark-skinned boy appeared before her.

"What is your purpose in forging an identity and infiltrating the space station?"

He questioned Tingyun sternly.

Seeing the weapon in the boy's hand, Tingyun immediately raised her own.

She said weakly, "Um, I came to the space station to find someone."

"Who?"

The dark-skinned boy asked, frowning.

"Herta."

Right now, she was just hoping Ji Yuan hadn't lied to her.

I hope you don't get your girlfriend into trouble, Tingyun thought to herself.

Hearing Tingyun's words, the boy's brow furrowed tightly. Just as he was about to say something, the space station suddenly erupted in a violent explosion, and several monsters appeared around them.

"Anti-Matter Legion!? How did they get here?"

Hearing the dark-skinned boy's words, Tingyun's eyes widened.

Anti-Matter Legion?

Could Phantylia have found out I left and chased me all the way here?

Chapter 72: Silver Wolf: It's over, our plan is completely ruined! [Second Update]

Several Mara-Struck Soldiers appeared, surrounding both the boy and Tingyun.

Tingyun pondered if she had been discovered by Phantylia and chased here.

While she was still thinking, the Mara-Struck Soldiers suddenly stopped moving. Then, their bodies began to freeze, and with a sound of shattering, they all turned to dust.

The sound of small boots walking could be heard, and Tingyun saw a loli doll in a dress walking over.

What is this?

She wondered to herself.

The boy beside her revealed her identity.

"Ms. Herta, you're back at the space station?"

"Ah, Arlan." Herta nodded slightly. "Yes, I actually wasn't supposed to return to the space station today. It's just that a friend of mine found someone with talent comparable to ours who is coming over. So, I came back early to make some preparations. As it turns out, I've encountered some unexpected guests."

Ruan Mei coming alone wouldn't have made Herta return early, but since she mentioned bringing Ji Yuan, Herta naturally wanted to prepare something to help this 'genius' whom she considered her equal in talent to grow.

However, as soon as she returned, she encountered the Anti-Matter Legion. So, she casually waved her hand, and these Mara-Struck Soldiers were eliminated.

Her strength was comparable to a Lord of Destruction, so the Mara-Struck Soldiers were vastly inferior to her.

These soldiers of the Anti-Matter Legion are getting bolder and bolder, Herta thought to herself.

Herta walked over to Arlan and instructed, "Arlan, go check the other parts of the space station. Oh, and you are..."

Her last sentence was directed at Tingyun.

She looked at Tingyun, wanting to know who she really was.

Arlan eyed Tingyun with suspicion.

Sensing their gazes, Tingyun inwardly gritted her teeth.

Ji Yuan, Ji Yuan, don't you dare mess with your girlfriend!

"Um, Ji Yuan asked me to find you..."

She said to Herta.

Upon hearing Ji Yuan's name, Herta raised an eyebrow slightly. She then couldn't help but laugh.

"He actually anticipated coming to bother me. Very well, as a senior, I have a responsibility to look after him until he grows. However, I'm marking this down for now, and I'll settle the score when he's capable."

"Ji, Ji Yuan already thought ahead?"

Tingyun was already confused when Herta said she knew Ji Yuan, and now to hear that Ji Yuan had prepared this in advance made her even more bewildered.

"He's a genius. Is there a problem with him thinking of these things?"

Herta looked at Tingyun with confusion instead.

Tingyun was completely baffled.

Ji Yuan's dream does indeed have many magical items, but how did he become so familiar with Ms. Herta?

While she was still thinking, Herta walked forward, saying to Tingyun as she went, "The Herta Space Station is currently experiencing an influx of Mara-Struck Soldiers. You should stay behind me for now to avoid wandering around and getting into danger."

At this very moment, Ji Yuan, who was conducting biological development on the Luofu Starfaring Vessel fleet, received the following achievement in his mind.

[You have facilitated the visit of a Helmsman from the Luofu Starfaring Vessel's Ten Thousand Ships Division to Herta, a member of the Genius Society, leading to initial cooperation between the two parties. As a reward for your contribution to interstellar cooperation, you have been granted Environment Adaptability +5.]
