Him and their stars.

Chapter 2023 This is the real Miss Yulian
“There are no outsiders here. You can just call them the Insurgents,” Yani said. “After Femor, they raised their banner and called themselves the ‘International Joint Rescue Brigade.’ Hahaha, that sounds like a volunteer charity organization.”

"But this charity just wiped out a veteran warlord of the Femor. And of course, you, as you predicted... Phew, so this is the power of precognition? Annie, aren't you getting closer and closer to becoming a creature of the void?"

If it were anyone else, they would definitely think that Krell was maliciously cursing himself.

And indeed, that was the case. However, Yamida Berencaster dismissed this mere verbal dissatisfaction with a smile, making no attempt to hide her sarcasm: "Yu Lian has never worried, so why should I?"

This is still such a convincing example that Krell was once again left speechless.

"Krell, this level of situation assessment doesn't require any futuristic vision. You've read that book, and even with your worn-out little head, you should understand that a group organized in that way is a game-changer for Femor. As long as they have above-average luck and caution, they'll definitely be able to establish themselves."

That's going too far! What, what smoothing? I can still use it for 100 years! Krell was furious and heartbroken, but he could only choose to remain silent in humiliation.

After all, that's not Yani's main point.

Interrupting the other person because of trivial matters will only lead to a worse fate for yourself.

"Besides, Mr. Babaru is an outstanding individual. If he were born in the League, we would definitely help him become the Grand President."

Claire Belmont had to admit she was right, although he also felt that someone as pure-hearted as Babaru would definitely disdain the offer from the Thirteen Families.

There are schemes, struggles, and disagreements among the thirteen allies led by Rainbow Rose, but they are actually quite willing to support the so-called "progressive forces."

If Babaru had been born in the League, he would have been the perfect candidate for the League's rulers to demonstrate progress.

“I originally hoped that the role would be played by Tina,” Yani added.

How could she so casually utter that girl's name? The girl who fought to the last moment for her ideals, the girl who clearly belonged to "one of them" but betrayed her own class.

"What kind of monster are you?" Claire Belmont wanted to say, but he didn't dare to.

My cousin has been acting like a monster, completely detached from family and friends, for a while now. It seems a bit pretentious to only be expressing my feelings now.

"As for the international brigade led by Ash and Babaru, it's certainly not the best outcome, but it's certainly not the worst either. As for its quality, you'll have to observe it for yourself."

“I know, this was actually my initial task.” Belmont tilted his head slightly, his voice carrying a faint trace of deep and painful resentment.

Yani smiled and shook her head: "Alright, cheer up. You're the Alliance's representative on that ship now, so don't really embarrass yourself. If Mr. Ash's resentment is so deep that he's lost his mind, Krell, you should know what to do."

Krell shuddered, looked up and stared at his cousin, who was also the leader of their generation, but seemed to see nothing clearly.

“If he is already a mature rebel leader, then tell him: the future of this war needs his strength, his mentor and friends need his strength, and the future of their international brigade needs him. Even if it is just to comfort the spirit of Taina in heaven, he will understand his position.”

Krell blinked, gritting her teeth, "You...you..."

"Is there a problem?" Yani asked with a smile.

“No, not at all.” Krell gritted his teeth but still gave a proper salute. He could never disobey his cousin’s orders, and this was no exception.

Brother Yu Lian is absolutely right, I really am Ya Ni's...

Krell stared at the person behind the screen, and suddenly thought of something. In an instant, he transformed from a self-pitying hypocrite into a vibrant person.

“I will obey orders, of course. Yani, but once things ease up a bit on Brother Yulian's side, I will tell you everything here. Yani, you know, back in Tulong Factory, I almost joined the Party!”

Upon hearing this, Claire Belmont was very pleased to see Annie's delicate brows furrow unconsciously. The so-called unfathomable mask that had been fixed on her face immediately showed obvious signs of crumbling.

Great, this is the Yani I know.

A cold-blooded Princess Rainbow Rose would make him uncomfortable, but a vibrant Amida Berencaster is a different story.

Even if you are the one receiving the same orders.

Krell immediately felt that all the panic and humiliation he had just experienced had vanished, and his morale and fighting spirit naturally soared. He immediately became very energetic and took on a confident demeanor.

He laughed loudly three times, showing no shame whatsoever for his bullying, and stood tall with his hands on his hips like a victor. Before the other side could retaliate, he quickly logged off without saying a word.

He at least left the conversation as a victor. Probably...

In fact, Amida Berencaster did remain silent for a moment before she couldn't help but chuckle. Then, perhaps to cover her embarrassment, she picked up her teacup and gulped down her tea.

If Krell had logged off a few seconds later, seeing such a human side to Annie would have probably fueled her even more fighting spirit.

Just as she was swallowing her tea, Yani heard the voice of another person present.

"Krell is a wonderful young man. He may appear carefree, but he has an unwavering conscience and plenty of courage and fighting spirit. He is easygoing and easygoing about small matters, but he is very trustworthy when it comes to important things." The old man had a kind face and spoke kind and gentle words in a kind and gentle tone.

"Hearing you say that, I thought you were some kind of grandfather advising me to go on blind dates," Yani said, giving the old man a rather impolite look.

"Haha, to be honest, when you two were little, we really did think that way. Although you are closely related by blood, once you reach the third ring or above, you can be shielded from all currently known genetic diseases," the old man admitted.

Miss Bei said she was genuinely disgusted, but of course, she didn't show it on the surface. She just laughed and said, "Inbreeding produces monsters. This is not just a biological issue, but a sociological one."

"Perhaps. But since it's a sociological issue, it's hard to change people's minds." The old man's smile remained warm: "Of course, we later changed our minds."

"When was that?" "It was when you were six years old and you got 2400 points on the LT National College Entrance Examination. That kid Krell was five years older than you, but he had already become your follower. Even the most conservative elders would find it hard to imagine that the two of you could build a healthy family relationship."

Yani smiled expressionlessly.

"Of course, this has nothing to do with the appearance of that young man named Yu Lian."

Yani stopped smiling and poured herself a cup of tea, gulping it down.

"And of course I know that your current plans aren't for him, but for the alliance." The old man looked at the slightly flustered Yani and chuckled.

“I’m doing this for the future of the universe.” Yani put down her teacup and said seriously, “The meeting between the International Brigades and the Independence in the Femo Nebula can play a decisive role at crucial moments. Of course, the premise is that they can unite and cooperate. In comparison, Mr. Babaru and Colonel Rose are both Yu Lian’s old subordinates and are both capable people who understand the big picture. At this time, it depends on Krell’s diplomatic skills and Mr. Stern’s attitude. He is the only variable in this matter.”

“I’ve also looked into that young man named Ash Stern. It’s truly a cruel twist of fate. If it weren’t for the events at Freedom Square that day, he could have been groomed as a future backbone of the association.” The old man sighed. “Since you believe he was the only variable, did you foresee the flames that ignited and the blood that flowed at Freedom Square?”

Princess Rainbow Rose smiled without saying a word, calm and open.

“Don’t be too obsessed with your future vision. Yani, someone like you… should trust this place more, not this place.” The old man tapped his head, then his eyes, and then smiled and moved his head slightly. “Hahaha, am I being too presumptuous by talking like this? People always tend to ramble on as they get older.”

"Go ahead and chatter away. You're the ancestor, no one in this world is more qualified to chatter than you," Yani laughed. "Besides, what you say makes a lot of sense, and I'm happy to follow your lead."

This old man, needless to say, is none other than Ott Berencaster, the oldest member of the Rainbow Rose family and the only nine-ring psionicist in the Free Galaxy Alliance.

For most people, this should be a name found in history textbooks, but that's all it should be in history textbooks.

However, for those well-informed in the underworld, as long as no news of the old man's death arrives, the mystical balance between the two poles will remain forever.

Of course, whether this balance still exists after Lan Jiufeng successfully reaches the side of truth is a very subtle question.

Ott said, "I belong to a previous era after all. When I was young, I never imagined that such a thing should exist in the universe."

His gaze swept over the massive, silvery-white structure outside the porthole, his voice and expression filled with obvious admiration.

For a nine-ring psionicist who is about to turn two hundred, there are not many things in the universe that can amaze him anymore, but that colossal object must be one of them.

He looked at his great-great-granddaughter, filled with joy and pride, like a grandfather who had just heard that his granddaughter had scored 700 points on the college entrance exam: "Yani, this is all thanks to you. With that alone, your future and achievements will far surpass mine, but that's why I hope you can be happy."

"...Your words now sound more like an old grandfather advising me to go on blind dates."

"Hahaha, my genius granddaughter, in my long and fruitless life, the only thing I'm certain of is that psionicists have limits. This applies to every star ring and every destiny."

"I second that. But how will you transcend the limitations of being a psychic?"

“I am not like Emperor Elither, I do not have that kind of awakening. I am even less like Lan Jiufeng, I do not have that kind of mindset. I only know that the closer one gets to the side of truth, the closer one must get to humanity. Yani, you must have the happiness of being born as a human being, this is actually the greatest anchor point for your spirit to remain constant in the real world.” The Alliance’s ninth ring, one of only four remaining beings on the side of truth in the entire universe, once again gave a thumbs up to his great-great-granddaughter.

Yani was acutely aware that these days, there weren't many people who could truly challenge her, and this old ancestor was one of them. While there might be something slightly off about what the old man said, it was ultimately quite reasonable.

It is precisely because it makes sense that it is so difficult to deal with.

“I’m doing it now. Ancestor, I’m doing it now,” Yani said.

Under Ott Berencaster's mischievous gaze, just as she picked up her teacup again, she heard the voice in her ear as expected: "Dear Secretary-General, Miss Yulian No. 1 is in position."

Outside the porthole, the colossal weapon known to the world as "Miss Jade Lotus" hovered quietly in the void.

Its perfectly mirrored armor reflected the sunlight, creating a translucent and mysterious luster, as if reflecting mercury flowing on the hull. Dozens of curved armor plates overlapped and converged, forming a "flower bud" with a diameter of over forty kilometers at the bow.

A halo of light flickered faintly in the gaps between the "petals," like the source of life within the veins of a leaf, extending from the oval structure of the hull all the way to the long, narrow stern.

Princess Rainbow Rose glanced at her great-grandfather, and with his encouraging gaze, she picked up the microphone and, like a leader of an alliance, naturally issued the order: "Attack!"

Her orders reached all the commanders without the slightest delay.

After a brief pause, the colossus's armor began to unfold layer by layer. The massive, curved metal plates slowly unfurled, like a lotus flower just beginning to bloom.

Inside those petals, countless gravitational lenses, based on precise calculations, begin to adjust their angles, forming an invisible gravitational cannon barrel.

In that special space, the silvery-white energy node went from boiling and scorching hot to gradually freezing completely, and finally disappeared from everyone's sight. Even the most advanced instruments could no longer detect that trace of temperature; only occasionally would a tiny, flickering heat source appear on the terminal's projection, only to vanish in an instant.

That is not high-temperature radiation of energy, but rather an occasional manifestation of entropy increase under the mutual attraction of strong interaction forces.

The gravitational balance formula manifested on the command center's computing terminal perfectly proves this point.

The science officers suppressed their excitement as they watched the Alliance officers pull the trigger.

At this moment, the petals formed by the armor had grown to their maximum size, and this silver-white creation had transformed into a lotus flower left by the gods in this star.

Gazing at that scene, Yani recalled the ancient Nephalem mythology, where the chief god who governs life and death and reincarnation wields a silver lotus as his treasure.

Similar examples can be vaguely found in Earth's classical mythology.

“The real Miss Jade Lotus,” said Ott Berencaster.

“The first one is also true,” Amida Berencaster said. “If this one is true, then the first one is also true.”
