Chapter 1386: Chapter 980: Enemies? Teammates?
"Old maid..." Chen Yu chewed on these words with a somewhat haggard face, topped with dark circles under her eyes, inevitably feeling a bit dazed. This world had a time interval with the main world, and it was about ten years or so.
Chen Yu in this world must be over thirty.
Being called an old maid meant... it left Chen Yu with a sense of gain and loss, some clarity, and some melancholy.
The Great Wall players who met the Border King with her were somewhat surprised. One of the Great Wall players complained, "Is the aesthetic of this world different from ours?"
Although they were not colleagues from the same division, they also knew Chen Yu, the demigod’s sister; her appearance and character were both excellent. Moreover, she was a member of the Strategy Group, very smart and rational.
There were quite a few Great Wall colleagues secretly or openly in love with her in the Yanyun division, even the young powerhouses from other divisions aspired to her.
But all failed spectacularly.
To think that in this world she had become a spinster, even criticized by the Border King.
What, are the aesthetics of this world the opposite of the main world?
The Great Wall players found it outrageous. In the main world, if she nodded, next year she’d be having your niece or nephew! However, as a relative of a demigod and Holder, it was normal to have high standards... It was said that the general constantly complained that Chen Yu was stealing his wife, maybe Chen Yu’s sexual orientation was somewhat different.
Players internally criticized.
"Let’s talk about family matters later." The Border King showed a smile, seemingly trying to appear relaxed, "Do you think the so-called ’Human Champion’ fleet is trustworthy? The captain in the Glory Arena, who led humans who retained their rationality despite being converted by a Demon General, counter-attacked nearly all the Demon Generals? And killed several grand demons, then stole Chaos’s warship? On the way to our Border City, they even destroyed a Beastmen tribe on a whim?"
"Although it sounds outrageous, he is indeed reliable," Chen Yu responded.
The Border King looked into Chen Yu’s eyes, they were somewhat exhausted, but they were the eyes he recognized. He couldn’t help but sigh softly, "You do trust him, but I cannot unreservedly trust someone from another world. I carry the safety of the entire city on my shoulders, I cannot just let humans from the Chaos range enter the giant city because ’you trust him.’"
"Understandable, City Lord," a Great Wall player spoke up, "Thorough checks and observations are essential."
"Glad you understand," the Border King’s eyes flickered briefly, "I’ve already issued the order. The fleet’s women, children, and elderly will be received. Soldiers may enter as well. But weapons must be confiscated. They will undergo inspection in the designated areas, especially the human demon army. Meanwhile, the ships cannot enter the giant city and must dock at Port No.3, twenty kilometers from the giant city. They will be guarded by a small team from the Defense Army and the Hellspring Reverse Infantry until it’s confirmed they pose no threat. Then the fleet can dock at Port No.1 inside the giant city. I would like to meet this guy you trust so much too."
In Border City, Hellspring Reverse Infantry troops had long been stationed.
As an important logistical city, the Hellspring fleet also deployed formidable forces here.
Chen Yu, consolidating the intelligence she had gathered, nodded slightly, "We can set off now. I can facilitate your contact with them."
The Border King nodded, "Be careful on the way. My sister, though not from the same world, I still choose to trust you, with the little humanity I have left..."
To resist the corruption of the Evil God from Chaos, the Border King had relinquished most of his humanity. The smile he showed earlier was one of the few remnants of his humanity.
This was how Border City resisted corruption.
Hearing this, Chen Yu nodded silently and then spoke, "Thank you, brother."
Then, two Great Wall players stayed in the meeting room to continue gathering intelligence about the giant city. They contacted the other city players to assist. They were also mindful of observing the higher echelons of the giant city, including the Border King, watching to see if they were highly corrupted.
Chen Yu, on the other hand, left the meeting room alone with her small backpack; she was to proceed to the fleet with the team from the giant city. As for safety, the small backpack she carried contained a Biomimetic Teardrop.
However, as Chen Yu walked out of the front door, she saw...
Her own self in this world.
She wore a black military uniform, her hair cut to shoulder length. She walked straight toward Chen Yu.
At the age of twenty, she was of the same height as Chen Yu, but her aura was formidable. As the Military Works Minister of Border City, she had long cultivated a strong presence.
Moreover, her face had matured, with a mature charm between her brows and eyes. The unintentional allure in her eyes was compelling.
Compared to her, Chen Yu still seemed like a flower that hadn’t fully bloomed.
Especially because of the curse of the Lord of Pleasure, Chen Yu had not rested properly these days. Her face looked somewhat haggard, hardly a match for the other.
After looking at Chen Yu silently for a while, she smiled and said, "We finally meet, the otherworldly version of me. What a young girl..."
Reaching out, she gently touched Chen Yu’s brow and smiled, "Still not fully bloomed... still a child. Tender and young. You make me both love and hate you."
"Rest assured... I’m not an old maid yet," Chen Yu retorted somewhat sharply.
The Military Works Minister clicked her tongue and pinched Chen Yu’s cheek: "Just like me, such a sharp tongue."
Chen Yu removed the other’s hand from her arm and said, "So, the one who came with me to meet the fleet was you... or you all?"
Chen Yu’s gaze shifted behind the Military Works Minister, as a player of high energy. She had already spotted the Transcendents who had not yet appeared from afar.
Those must be the Hellsprings Reverse land forces.
"Strong perception abilities, Minister Chen, the other-worldly you is very powerful," a strong individual who had stepped out from a corner spoke to the Military Works Minister.
And upon seeing his face, Chen Yu’s expression instantly turned cold.
From her backpack behind, Black Mud oozed and dripped onto the ground.
At the same time, an extremely terrifying intent to kill gradually gathered. Upon seeing that face, the Biomimetic Teardrop was stirred.
Feeling this murderous aura, the approaching soldiers of Hellsprings Reverse paused, their expressions darkening.
"What are you trying to do?" the Military Works Minister stepped in front of Chen Yu. "They are land forces, not enemies."
Chen Yu stopped the Biomimetic Teardrop and looked at one of the land forces members, "You are part of the land forces?"
The middle-aged Transcendent seemed a bit perplexed, but still nodded, "I am part of the Hellsprings Reverse fleet’s land forces, Light Cavalry squad leader. Loyal to the Supreme King. And the order I currently have is to protect the Military Works Minister and make contact with the human champion fleet."
"That’s really interesting. The murderer who killed me in a certain timeline is now my guardian in this world," Chen Yu clicked her tongue.
This Transcendent was the murderer who had killed Chen Yu in Li Luoling’s timeline. A Book of Heaven powerhouse, a Different Pupil!
Now, this world’s version of him had become a member of the land forces, guarding the Chen Yu of this world. It was both ludicrous and absurd.
The squad leader’s face changed slightly and he replied, "I have absolutely no ill intentions toward the minister. The Supreme King saved and nurtured me during the disaster, and I will repay him with my life. I could never harbor any hostility toward Chen!"
Upon hearing this, the Military Works Minister raised an eyebrow and said, "Time lines... you players are really interesting. However, our worlds, though similar, still differ. Don’t let the grudges of that world affect innocent people."
"I’m well aware of that," Chen Yu responded. "But the fleet captain has quite a temper. Seeing the person he killed showing up again might make his face quite unpleasant."
"Yo, so he avenged you, huh?" The Military Works Minister’s words carried a hint of teasing. "Then I’m even more curious to see just how impressive that fleet captain really is."
