Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [239]

The feeling of being outplayed once again crept into Ryuji’s mind.

The realization that his strategy had been predicted left him deeply unsettled.

“Did my opponent study my lineup and figure out I’d use Sudowoodo?”

Ryuji glanced at Luo Yuan.

Despite Luo Yuan’s calm exterior, Ryuji was convinced he took his strength seriously.

However, if Luo Yuan could hear his thoughts, he’d laugh and tell him he was overthinking things.

Luo Yuan’s decision t...

“What’s going on?” Gary and Ash asked simultaneously, startled by Luo Yuan’s words.

As the top seed of the Indigo League, Luo Yuan was undoubtedly regarded as the strongest competitor.

It wasn’t unusual for him to have insider information they didn’t.

Glancing at his watch and noting there was still time before the match, Luo Yuan decided to share a bit more with them.

“You’ve both noticed that this year’s Indigo League feels... different, haven’t y...

Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [237]

In response to Matori’s question, Luo Yuan shook his head.

“No need to act for now.”

“?”

Matori’s face showed clear confusion.

However, knowing Luo Yuan as well as she did, she understood there was more he wasn’t saying, so she refrained from pressing him.

As expected, Luo Yuan smiled and explained:

“There’s no need for us to take unnecessary risks. If anyone should be panicking right now, it’s Malva, not us.”

Matori thought for ...

Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [236]

"......."

Upon hearing Luo Yuan’s modest "small goal," Malva couldn’t help but want to call him arrogant.

But as she looked at Luo Yuan’s expression—one that genuinely seemed to consider the goal insignificant—she swallowed her words.

Besides...

Recalling Luo Yuan’s Dragonite, which was at least at the Champion level, Malva felt that perhaps his "small goal" wasn’t entirely out of reach.

“Well then, let’s conclude the interview here.”

This Trainee Fatui Harbinger is Too Unreliable [365]

“Oratrice Mecanique d'Analyse Cardinale...”

Luo Qing murmured the words to himself,

His mind drifting to the information Natalya had provided about Fontaine.

In public trials, while Chief Justice Neuvillette appeared to deliver the verdict, he primarily served as a presiding figure.

The true determinant of guilt or innocence was the Oratrice Mecanique d'Analyse Cardinale, placed prominently on the stage of the Opera Epiclese.

If Neuvillette�...

After chatting with Lumine and Paimon for a while,

Despite their persistent questioning about his true purpose in Fontaine, Luo Qing remained steadfast in claiming he was there for a mission from Nahida. Eventually, the two had to give up and left without any new information.

No sooner had they departed than Charlotte entered the study.

“Mr. Luo Qing, I’ve made up my mind.”

Taking a deep breath to steady herself, Charlotte continued, “I’m willing to cooperate...

Having wrapped up matters at the opera house,

Luo Qing left the Ashen River District, gazing at the clean and refined streets of Fontaine Court.

A sigh escaped him.

The upper district was so exquisite and grand, yet the Ashen River District resembled a rat-infested sewer. The stark contrast between the two was glaring. What had Furina been doing all these years to let such disparity exist unchecked?

By now, it was evening, the setting sun painting the sky golden.

The wait for a railcar at the harbor was long,

So by the time Lumine and her group reached the next one, Luo Qing and Furina had already left, their whereabouts unknown.

The two of them sat side by side on the top deck of the railcar, while Clorinde and the guards remained below, leaving Luo Qing and Furina with plenty of private space.

“Hey, so, I just invited that traveler to watch Lyney’s magic performance. Do you want to come too?”

Furina’s voice lacked con...

This Trainee Fatui Harbinger is Too Unreliable [361]

To the citizens of Fontaine,

Perhaps Furina’s performance at this moment seemed awe-inspiring, showcasing the unique personality of Fontaine’s deity.

But in Luo Qing’s eyes,

This woman looked more like a nervous, overdramatic teenager performing on stage.

Not only were her legs trembling fiercely, but even her voice quivered. There wasn’t the slightest hint of divine dignity in her demeanor.

She’d probably cry for ages if someone landed a punch on her.<...

Boulder Town, Goethe Hotel.

Dan Heng leaned against the bedpost, arms crossed, his sharp eyes fixed on Chen Lin lying unconscious on the bed. His expression reflected his frustration and confusion.

During the battle outside the settlement, Chen Lin had been struck by a strange beam of light and sent flying. Not long after, the newborn Rifts in the area began disappearing, and the Riftspawn grew so weak they were little more than helpless livestock awaiting slaught...

Is Unlocking the Stellaris Tech Tree in Star Rail Really Okay? [74]

Beyond the desolate outskirts of the town, a piercing screech echoed from the pitch-black depths, its frequency so peculiar that it sent faint ripples through Chen Lin’s psionic projection.

Moments later, a grayish silhouette began to emerge on a nearby hillside. Its limbs were defined, its form translucent, and its composition of energy fluctuated erratically, unlike any Riftspawn Chen Lin had encountered before.

The strange figure stood close to the battlefield, yet no one had...

Is Unlocking the Stellaris Tech Tree in Star Rail Really Okay? [73]

It shattered—completely shattered!

The deflection shield generator that Chen Lin carried with him had taken a direct hit, suffering irreparable damage.

This was the first time since arriving in this world that Chen Lin had been struck by such a powerful attack—far exceeding his expectations.

Of course, there was another factor to consider: Chen Lin usually avoided direct combat, preferring to let his team handle most fights. Before crossing over to this world, he was not...

Retreating wasn’t even a consideration.

The Frosted Behemoth—one of the toughest Riftspawn in the Underworld—had been obliterated in less than half a round by Chen Lin. With the greatest threat eliminated, there was no need to deliberate further.

As March and the others joined the fight, Seele quickly realized that these so-called "scientists’ bodyguards" were anything but ordinary. Not one of them was weaker than her—in fact, they seemed to be holding back, fighting as ...

Is Unlocking the Stellaris Tech Tree in Star Rail Really Okay? [71]

Seele was no ordinary person. Even someone like Chen Lin, who wasn’t adept at combat, could clearly see that her power far surpassed the realm of normalcy.

The sharp edge of her scythe, glowing with a ghostly violet hue, seemed capable of slicing through space itself. Her unpredictable fighting style made it impossible for her opponents to anticipate where her next attack would come from.

Her swift figure flickered in and out of existence, vanishing one moment and reappearing th...

I Don’t Want to Be a Heroic Spirit [240]

The battlefield, once filled with the deafening clamor of combat, fell noticeably quieter.

The change was entirely due to the sudden appearance of a certain girl.

Nero stood confidently at the center of attention, one arm supporting Alice while her other hand rested on her red-and-black sword. She caught a handful of the rose petals swirling in the air around her, then scattered them dramatically with a flick of her wrist.

“I have arrived! UmU!”

Her bold proclamati...

I Don’t Want to Be a Heroic Spirit [239]

The battlefield stretched to the southern outskirts of the capital.

Though the Demon King’s forces seemed unusually active tonight, launching two waves of attacks in succession, the experienced knights and adventurers quickly organized a defense, engaging the invaders in combat.

Despite the title Demon King’s Army, the bulk of the attackers were goblins and kobolds—creatures so weak they barely qualified as low-tier demons. These standard fodder monsters had no rede...

I Don’t Want to Be a Heroic Spirit [238]

Claire and the others had left.

With the Demon King’s forces invading, they had to lead their units to handle the situation.

Nero was undoubtedly a tricky matter to deal with, so after some discussion, they decided to temporarily house her in a room where she could rest for the night. They planned to revisit her situation the next day.

As for Alice, her room was no longer livable after the chaos caused by Nero. Coupled with the ongoing invasion, Alice was temporarily moved...
