After a brief incident, just as March 7th and Xing returned to Kliperburg, Topaz suddenly appeared and briefly explained the situation to everyone.
Previously, due to a lack of communication, the company was unaware that Jarilo-VI was under the jurisdiction of the [ Church of Eternity ], and therefore ceased its debt collection efforts on that planet.
"Thank you all for your hard work. I never expected to drag you into this crisis again... and it almost caused a breakdown in the relationship between the train and the company." Bronya thanked them repeatedly.
"A breakdown? Not at all... Besides, the main responsibility for this also lies with me; it's my fault for not managing my subordinates well."
"Huh? I don't think we did anything really... We just went to the Great Mine with Seele and beat up the company employees stationed there."
March 7th felt a little embarrassed, "The people we should thank the most are the Church of Eternity, so it seems the Priestess and Chair Blake really did come to Jarilo-VI for vacation!"
"Sigh~ It's a pity I didn't get to see them. I was thinking of asking Chair Blake for some of his specialty soap." Xing said with a hint of regret, which startled Topaz so much that he stood at attention.
The Interastral Peace Broadcast already has material: the [ Tavern ] has been attacked a second time by an unidentified explosive heavy weapon, and at the same time, a violent energy fluctuation has occurred in the star system where the [ Annihilation Gang ] is located.
"You've all had a long and tiring journey. I've arranged rooms for you at the Goethe Hotel. Please make sure you recover well in Belobog."
An unexpected situation arose on the first day of the Paskonja Festival, but fortunately it was resolved smoothly, and Xinghe and March 7th will have plenty of time to enjoy the holiday.
"By the way, Miss Topaz, if you need a comfortable place to stay..."
"No need to trouble you, I have other matters to attend to and need to return to company headquarters. Ms. Bronya, it's a pleasure to establish contact with you, and I hope we'll have the opportunity to cooperate again in the future... Of course, the method of cooperation will definitely be different!"
"Looks like I'll finally get to experience the Paskonja Festival, which I've been looking forward to March 7th..."
Xing sighed with emotion, "It's a holiday... Come to think of it, I haven't participated in any of the corresponding holiday activities at the [ Herta ] Space Station or the Xianzhou Luofu yet."
As for Afrit, the news it had just spread was suppressed within minutes by the combined efforts of the Interastral Peace Corporation, the Church of Eternity, and the Mourning Actors.
Why are there those Mourning Actors involved? It's simple: they don't want to be implicated, and they also fear being given soap or other local products by the Church as a friendly gesture.
Ye Yan himself certainly doesn't care about these rumors spreading around the world; someone will handle them for him.
If all else fails, He will seize upon the mystical Mythus; this is where the role of the History Fictionologists comes into play!
Unfortunately, no matter how quickly the news was suppressed, it couldn't escape the eyes of the Galactic Baseballer!
[Group Chat: Astral Express Family ]
[Star: @Ye Yan [Forwarded link. Shocking! The Duke Inferno has actually declared war on " Eternity "?!]]
[ March 7th: [Forwarded link. Still shocking! Latest developments in the case of the murder of Oswaldo Schneider, head of the Market Development Department! The real culprit is actually the unknown " Eternity " Emanator?] @Ye Yan ]
[ Dan Heng: Ye Yan ]
[ March 7th: Teacher Ye Yan, you actually did these things behind our backs! We underestimated you!]
[Star: Shocked! The murderer is right beside me?! Where is the trust?!]
[ Dan Heng: Do you need any help?]
Everyone on the Astral Express Crew knew that even if the murderer of Oswaldo Schneider was [ Elation ] Aha, it couldn't possibly be Ye Yan. His daily life consisted of only two elements: milk tea and slacking off.
[ Ye Yan: Thank you all for your concern. I'm doing well. The culprit has been caught; it's a Masked Fools wishes to remain anonymous.]
[ Himeko: You're quite efficient.]
[ March 7th: Oh oh oh! Support Teacher Ye Yan in righteously punishing those who spread rumors!]
[Star: +1]
At the Goethe Hotel, Ye Yan's black chains were binding a grinning Fool 'Fool's Mask. Upon closer inspection, half a piece of unfinished cupcake was still stuck to the corner of the mask's mouth.
" Aha-- "
The mask suddenly emitted a burst of laughter like popcorn exploding in a pot, causing the chains to clang loudly.
"It's that long-awaited torture session! Aha's been caught!"
"Faced with Eternity judgment, you are not afraid at all, but rather excited...?"
"Ahem!" Ye Yan took out an ancient book and cleared his throat:
"He instigated Afrit to stage an accident involving [ Eternity ], impersonating me, and committing a crime against Interastral Peace Corporation, even going so far as to fabricate a crime scene afterward..."
As Ye Yan spoke, he flipped through the ancient book, but after searching through it all without finding a solution, he simply closed the book. "Friend, if this happened in the Church, they'd be lenient by not sentencing you to death."
"Oh, my friend, you wouldn't do that to Aha, would you? It's all about trust..."
"What are you babbling about? Go talk to my [ Eternity ] Space." Ye Yan turned and threw the mask into the black hole.
After enjoying a relaxing holiday in Jarilo-VI, Everwinter Monument in the Administrative District.
"Hmm? ' Aetherium Wars,' a game I've never heard of!" March 7th took the phone from Xing and read:
"Hmm... using the company's most advanced Aether Editing technology, record any creature you've ever seen in Aether Coin... then print it out and use it to battle against other players... let your Aether Spirit companions bring you glory."
"Hey, this seems pretty interesting?"
Are you serious?
Xing didn't understand. She received a message from the salesperson of the [ Strategic Investment Department ] as soon as she woke up this morning, along with the Interastral Tournament Festival. Anyone who didn't know better would think it was organized by the Masked Fools.
"What else? I'm really interested! Why don't we go check it out since we're on the way?"
Seeing how much anticipation March 7th had for it, Xing changed her mind. "Since we're already here..."
"That's great! I'd only ever heard of that young girl from the Stellaron Hunters having this technique... Maybe this time I'll get to see it up close."
On one side of the story, Ye Yan...
"Hey, forget about what happened a few days ago. How about a thrilling game of ' Aetherium Wars ' with me?"
Silver Wolf rubbed her hands together excitedly. She had practiced diligently for a long time and refused to believe she couldn't beat Ye Yan!
Moreover, the game's [ Aether Editing ] technology originated from Punklorde, and Silver Wolf is more than capable of anything like arbitrarily altering real-world data!
Besides that, she's a veteran player of the 18 Transformations Aetherium Wars; she can recite all the information and knowledge in it perfectly, word for word!
Unfortunately, Ye Yan had no interest in this kind of game that combines collection, battles, character development, and leveling up, saying that if he played it, it might redefine players' understanding of the game.
Hilarious! He thinks he's Aeon... He's really pushing the boundaries of what's acceptable. But I definitely can't beat him at games...
Damn it! I can't find a point to refute it for the time being!
As the most cutting-edge entertainment game in the entire universe, Silver Wolf highly recommends Aetherium Wars Etherfronts to the entire world.
A proper simulation and battle game should naturally include tournament-style events – and that's where [ Interastral Tournament Festival ] comes in!
Players from all over the universe will gather during this time to exchange ideas and enjoy the fun of the game together!
However, due to the Stellaron blocking the interstellar passage, this celebration has been temporarily changed to an online viewing mode...
However, the organizers still preserved the physical venue, showing the utmost respect to those viewers who insisted on attending the event in person! This is very considerate!
"I don't understand it, and it doesn't feel as good as [ Eternity ]."
"Show me some respect for the rules of the game!"
