Star Dome Railway, I am surrounded by strange things!

But this guy, raised by a fox, who has every one of these traits perfectly, is simply too good to be true. How can this be considered as gaining favor? This is simply being charmed!

Fortunately, I only like furry animals. If this thing had a pair of furry fox ears and a big furry tail, wouldn't I be in trouble too? Thinking that he had been dealing with this kind of fox demon for so long without being charmed, Topa even felt lucky to have escaped death.

Shajin, who was also shocked by the fox bloodline, said half-jokingly:

"Hey, my friend, are you interested in being my chief negotiator? The salary is up to you!"

From the outset, Shajin hadn't held any expectations for the outcome of Pinocchio's negotiation trip. What was the point of a deal that was impossible to agree to, no matter how favorable the terms were? All this preparation was more about muddying the waters and disrupting the negotiations as much as possible, rather than helping them.

However, if it was this guy in front of him, Sha Jin really suspected that whether it was the Dream Master, Sunday, or the watchmaker under the water, they might really be fooled by this guy at first sight, and might even offer the star core with both hands.

If you don't quickly cling to this kind of thigh, how can you still be a business elite? With a partner like this, you can get a promotion without even lying down!

The Star Train crew also deeply agrees with Gold Sand's words:

"Xiao Jiang, do you want to join the Starry Sky Train? With you here, we will definitely get rid of the curse of being wanted every three planets!" March Seven came over and encouraged.

In her opinion, the biggest reason everyone was wanted everywhere was a serious lack of a skilled negotiator. Xing was always the one to stir up trouble, while Dan Heng remained silent. She was inexplicably put on a wanted list after making even the smallest mistake.

We can't always have Miss Jizi come down to talk every time we arrive at a planet! If we have Xiao Jiang, won't we be able to have fun no matter which planet we go to in the future?

As for San Yueqi's statement, Xing nodded repeatedly, his eyes full of anticipation.

Even if she was lawless... well, with her "pioneering" spirit, she didn't dare to act recklessly when helping Black Tower test the simulated universe, and most of the time she just listened to her instructions obediently.

After all, the star core in her body was originally the property of the Black Tower. She felt she had taken advantage of someone else's property, which resulted in the Black Tower begging her to test it, but she created a feeling of needing help from others. Facing Jiang Yan, who slashed at her with a sword without saying a word and nothing happened, Xing almost became his fan.

"Hey, hey, hey, what do you take me for? This is just normal scientific research cooperation. Do you think I'm the Clock Kid from the cartoon?"

"Forget it, the banquet is about to begin. Let's go quickly and don't keep Bronya waiting anxiously."

Jiang Yan was unconvinced by everyone's claims. This was clearly a mutual attraction between researchers, so why was it being made like he could manipulate others' emotions? Wasn't it Ruan Mei who could use extracorporeal information technology to modify emotions?

However, he was also very clear that he could not even convince Luofu's friends with this statement, so naturally he could not convince his new friends either, so he simply got up and ran away.

The four "accomplices" who got a clear answer naturally had no objection since Jiang Yan said that he, the "main culprit", would take the blame. They returned to the banquet hall with a sense of relief, and their attention was instantly attracted by Bai Lu's dragon horns. Sha Jin and Topa were even more dumbfounded.

This guy actually brought a Dragon Lord here just to support that indigenous queen? This is too cruel!

As company executives, the two were naturally aware of the existence of the Five Dragon Lords of Xianzhou. This ultimate leader, guarding a crucial position like a strategic weapon, was actually being dragged out on a trip by Jiang Yan? How much influence did this guy have to convince General Luofu to approve such a dangerous trip? No wonder he had to arrive on a landing carrier! After all, he was one of the Five Dragon Lords, so it made sense for him to have such a high-level escort when traveling.

The celestial transport vessel, a vessel of the virtuous and martial nature of the Industrial and Construction Company, was not, in the Interstellar Peace Company's internal classification, a transport vessel at all, but rather a landing craft for surface warfare. After all, aside from the Immortal Ship, no one considered a warship equipped with space-based anti-ship weaponry, low-orbital bombardment weapons, the ability to launch ship-borne star rafts, and the ability to provide emergency battlefield repairs to be categorized as a "transport vessel."

However, at this moment when the security personnel of Interstellar Peace Company were planning to make a big move, the other party drove the landing mothership with Dragon Zun. What they wanted to do was obvious:

——If you dare to destroy Yalilo No. 6, I will summon the mothership to conduct a low-orbit bombardment, then close the door and release the Dragon Lord, and send you all to heaven.

If it were any other faction, Gold Sand and Toppa might have suspected this was merely a strategic deterrent, believing the other side couldn't truly act this way. However, the followers of "Hunter," whether they were the Star Rangers or the Immortal Ship people, were known throughout the universe as psychopaths. To uphold justice or seek revenge, they never considered the consequences or the cost-effectiveness. Countless gambles, losses, and even the deaths of people attested to this fact.

Who would dare to bet on this? If the two sides fought each other here and got bloodied, Shajin felt that he would be in dire straits and lose everything.

There is no way. No matter how great it was to call for support at the beginning, now Sha Jin has to feel very frustrated to persuade the "special task force" that is ready to encircle and suppress the Silver Wolf, or at least to reduce its scale.

At Shajin's glance, Topa immediately and quietly initiated a contact request on his portable terminal. As the notification sounded, Shajin politely apologized, found a quiet little room, and used the company's internal secure channel to contact James, the head of the "special task force."

"What? Any news about that dwarf? We're just waiting for her to fall into our trap!" James, who has never been so strong, is full of confidence at this moment. He can't wait to start the finals tomorrow and capture the dwarf who has brought so much shame to various departments in a live broadcast throughout the universe.

"There's no news from Silver Wolf, but there is news from the Immortal Boat," Sha Jin said wearily, rubbing his forehead. Even someone as mentally resilient as him was exhausted by Jiang Yan's barrage of explosive news and brutal actions in such a short period of time.

"What does the news about the Immortal Boat have to do with us? Tell them that we are not interested in taking their territory. We will compensate them three times the amount of damage!" James was dismissive of the information about the gold dust.

This bunch of rubbish from the Strategic Investment Department, it's already shameful enough that they lost control of Yalilo No. 6 despite a clear debt relationship, yet they actually have the nerve to remind him about the ownership issue?

"What if I tell you that Luofu has sent a landing mothership and a Dragon Lord?" Shajin didn't care about the contempt in the other party's words. After all, the more arrogant he is now, the more clownish he will be when he puts on the mask of pain.

"Landing carrier? Dragon Lord? Wait a minute, is that the Dragon Lord mentioned in the company intelligence?" After hearing words that should never appear in security operations one after another, James almost suspected that he was hallucinating.

"Yes, the Dragon Lord Bai Lu is currently in Krippenburg, and the landing aircraft carrier is also docked at the airport. You can confirm it at any time."

"Are those people from the Immortal Boat crazy? Are they planning to start an all-out war?" James was instantly defeated when he heard Sha Jin's words.

No matter how powerful he was, he was only a senior executive in the company's security department. He had absolutely no authority to start a war, let alone one where the other side was all-in, throwing out a weapon as lethal as the Dragon Lord. If they didn't want to engage in a universe-wide war with Xianzhou, who would dare to touch the five Dragon Lords?

"Want to take a gamble? Maybe the followers of 'Hunting' aren't that crazy?"

"What the hell! You gambler! Tell me, what do these lunatics want?"

"The Silver Wolf has nothing to do with their interests. You are free to capture it however you want. But you must not cause any large-scale damage to this planet, and there must not be any "accidental injuries" or "wrong maps." You understand." Shajin said in a flat tone.

Even without consulting Jiang Yan's opinion, Sha Jin still put forward conditions on his behalf because of his understanding of this guy.

"Then how do I catch that slippery little mouse? Can you teach me?"

"That's your problem. In this game, I was just a spectator from beginning to end."

In order to avoid damaging his friendship with Jiang Yan, Sha Jinwei, who had not participated in any action from the beginning to the end and had no intention of taking any credit, had already left himself a way out. Faced with this situation, he did not hesitate to completely cut ties with the other party.

"Then get out of here! Spectators! Just wait and see!"

James, who was completely defeated, angrily cut off the communication.

Looking at the pitch-black projection screen, Shajin could only shake his head helplessly and said self-deprecatingly:

"A spectator? If you lose, doesn't that mean I win?"

"Are you right? The opponent who hasn't even come to the table yet."

Oops, I've been entangled by a fool! : Chapter 137: Tricks

Jiang Yan's disagreement with Long Zun's cruel work not only made the Interstellar Peace Company embarrassed, but Beloberg's side was actually not that strong either.

When Bronya learned that Jiang Yan brought Luo Fu's friend to visit, she originally planned to give up all her status and airs and personally entertain him like an ordinary friend. But Bronya never thought that this guy would directly bring a friend with dragon horns without even giving her a reminder?

She could be humble and unassuming, but she couldn't possibly treat Long Zun, whose status was no less than General Xianzhou's, in this way. With no other options, Bronya led the small tour group to visit Klipperburg under the guise of preparing a dinner, then secretly contacted Jiang Yan on her portable terminal to get some information.

"You never told me that one of your friends is a Dragon Lord!"

Jiang Yan, who was visiting Klipperburg with his friends, replied nonchalantly:

"It's okay. Just treat Bai Lu as an ordinary person. She won't transform into a dragon and let you eat her."

"But if I don't treat them well, the Chiming people will eat me! Forget it, tell me what Miss Bailu likes?" Bronya replied helplessly. It was too difficult to expect this guy to understand diplomatic etiquette.

"She? She loves to eat, she's a huge eater! Besides eating, she also loves to play and wander around. She must have been cooped up since she was little."

Jiang Yan was deeply resentful of Bai Lu's appetite. This was the only area where she was like a true dragon, never full or fat. Whenever he took her shopping, she'd eat from one end of the street to the other, until her hands and back were exhausted...

But upon hearing such down-to-earth hobbies, Bronya breathed a sigh of relief. What better way to entertain than with food and a stroll? It seemed the excuse of preparing a banquet was perfectly chosen.

"So, what are Miss Bailu's food preferences?"

"Two-legged ones won't eat people, four-legged ones won't eat stools, but anything else is fine. She'll have whatever tastes good. She only cares about taste, not quantity," Jiang Yan replied casually. Jiang Yan couldn't imagine a guy who even flaunted soda bean juice having any dietary restrictions.

"Well, your other friends probably also have some remarkable identities, right?"

"No, there really isn't one. They are all ordinary people."

She is nothing more than a disciple of a general, the daughter of the captain of the Tianbo Division, the daughter of a big shot in Yaoqing, and a big anchor. Maybe she will have some status in the future, but now, she is just an ordinary person!

Really? Why don't I believe it?

Although they had only met and chatted for a few minutes, Bronya didn't quite believe that those friends who could hang out with Jiang Yan and withstand his frequent and brutal attacks were ordinary people, so she asked:

"In that case, how should we entertain them during the next period of time?"

"Let me think about it. Yanqing and Suchang are both very passionate about martial arts. Please arrange for them to have a sparring match with Xier, Jeppard, and Luca. They should be very satisfied."

"As for Qingni, just let her experience all of Beloberg's aircraft, especially the Star Rafts and Battleships imported from Luofu."

"As for Gui Naifen, she still has a competition. I'll have her go to Topa for special training these days. Don't worry about her. If she does something strange while live streaming, just ignore her."

Even without asking, Jiang Yan knew what his friends wanted, and he immediately put forward their demands as if they were familiar with each other.

Do you want to spar with Jeppard, pilot a flying machine, or participate in a dark duel? Your "ordinary friends" really have special skills!

However, Bronya didn't intend to blame Jiang Yan for his concealment. Similar to the conclusions reached by Shajin and Topa, in the eyes of the Great Guardian, the arrival of these "ordinary people" was undoubtedly a wise move made by the General Shen Ce at Jiang Yan's request.

Yalilo VI's current independence ultimately stems from Rofu's protection, but where is the limit of this protection? The Interstellar Peace Company, obsessed with the star core, will definitely test it. The security team's drastic action during the Ether Front Competition clearly has this in mind.

Faced with this underwater temptation, Luofu could not allocate a large army to support the situation, which would make it appear cowardly and make trouble out of nothing. Inviting Bai Lu, the Dragon Lord who had not officially fulfilled his responsibility to protect Jianmu, to come over became an excellent strategic deterrent.

Who dared to touch the Dragon Lord, guarding Jianmu, the lifeblood of the Immortal Ship? Her mere presence was enough to defeat a mighty army, and if any friction arose, the Immortal Ship could logically use the mothership escorting her as a beacon, directly sending a fleet to protect the Dragon Lord and completely thwart all the plots of the Interstellar Peace Company.

This level of support undoubtedly earned Yalilo Six great confidence and gratitude, and the immortal boat only cost a trip that made Long Zun extremely happy. That General Shen Ce was indeed worthy of his reputation! As for Jiang Yan, who had asked him to take action, Bronya was extremely grateful.

Bronya could only silently remember all the favors she could not repay time and time again, and decided to spend her whole life slowly repaying them. As for Jiang Yan's concealment to avoid putting pressure on her, Bronya gladly accepted this kindness and simply replied calmly:

"Okay, I'll treat them well."

So in the following days, Jiang Yan's friends spent a very happy time:

Accompanied by Bronya, the Dragon Lord Bai Lu ate and played in every street and alley of Beloberg. He was so lively that the Interstellar Peace Company sent people to follow and protect him secretly, for fear that he would be blamed for something he didn't do.

Since Qing Ni was led by Jiang Yan to the flight base on the outskirts of Beloberg, she has not been seen since.

As the cold wave that blanketed Yalilo VI gradually receded, rebuilding the air force became possible. Bombing the Rift Creations from high above was clearly infinitely more effective than traversing the snowy plains and engaging in combat in the extreme cold. Consequently, Beloberg spent a significant amount of his budget shortly after the agreement was signed, purchasing a batch of cold-resistant Star Rafts and Battleships from Luofu.

When Qing Ni was pleasantly surprised to see these long-dreamed-of battleships and the assigned instructors, she excitedly hugged Jiang Yan tightly and spun around like a windmill for seventeen or eighteen times:

"Xiao Jiang, that's awesome! You're my real brother, no, my adoptive father!"

Although Yukong no longer prevents Qingni from driving the Star Raft, no matter how talented she is, she has not yet officially joined the flying class and does not have a fixed partner. How can Qingni, who only has a certificate, have the opportunity to touch a strictly controlled warship like a Doujian?

Now that she saw the fighting ship that she could drive freely, her ears trembled with excitement and her tail wagged like a puppy and couldn't stop. In a blink of an eye, she found an instructor, and with her as her partner, she boarded the fighting ship and began training.

Circle after circle, time and again, it was almost time for everyone to have dinner together. Jiang Yan stopped Qing Ni, who was excitedly planning to change to another battleship and take off again:

"Alright, alright, Xiao Guizi and the others are waiting for us! Come back tomorrow. Bronya has already said hello, you can come for training anytime, and if the instructor approves, you can even participate in missions."

"Going on a mission?" Jiang Yan said such a long string of words, but in Qingni's mind, only the word "mission" remained.

When Qing Ni thought about becoming a full-fledged pilot and going on missions to fight the enemy like her two mothers, she no longer had any other thoughts. The "adopted father" in front of her immediately became an "eyesore" and was directly driven away by Qing Ni:

"Go back for dinner? What do pilots eat? Tell Xiao Guizi and the others that I'm not going back. I'm going to stay here and practice night flying. I'll go cheer for Xiao Guizi when his competition starts!"

"Huh? This is outrageous! A night flight? If something goes wrong, how are you going to tell Bronya and me to Stewardess Yu?"

Seeing that Jiang Yan was still trying to dissuade him, Qing Ni, whose heart had already soared to the sky, used her ultimate weapon without hesitation:

"Don't worry about me, just go! If you don't leave now, I'll go back and tell my mom that you want to be my godfather!"

Jiang Yan was so angry at her nonsense that he immediately grabbed her big ears and yelled:

"Are you a human? Didn't you say these nonsense yourself? What does it have to do with me?"

However, Qing Ni, whose mind was already filled with the thought of "going on a mission", said without a word:

"What's wrong with what I said? Didn't you vehemently object? Besides, I've long wanted to find a companion for my mother's later years. She's much prettier than me and can live to be at least a hundred years younger. It won't be a problem for her to outlive you. Wouldn't that be a loss for you? If you're capable, then you should really take the role! I'll call you dad right away!"

Jiang Yan finally understood why Yukong had been pulling the ears of this guy since he was a child. This kind of timber-grade seedling should be pricked eight times a day, but Yukong was reluctant to do so, so the guy grew completely crooked.

Seeing the fox instructor beside him laughing so hard that he couldn't straighten his back, Jiang Yan, who couldn't afford to offend such a self-destructing truck, had no choice but to leave him and go to Topa's manor to join the dinner. However, he found that Su Shang and Yan Qing had also ruthlessly stood everyone up.

In order to satisfy the two martial arts fanatics, Bronya specially commissioned Dihuo to organize a Panyan Town Super League, using high prize money to motivate all the masters of Beloberg to come to participate. As a result, these two guys were not satisfied with playing according to the schedule, and even took the initiative to join Dihuo and launched a sweep of the Rift Creatures. Before the game started, they also had no intention of coming back.

"What a bunch of ungrateful bastards!" Jiang Yan complained angrily at the dining table.

He didn't mind missing a few of his friends who often gathered for dinner, but he desperately needed some shields to block out the resentful gazes before him:

"Since they're not coming anymore, isn't it time for you, Xiao Jiang, to teach us poor people how to fight a dark duel?"

"You caused this, so you have to find a solution for us!"

"I knew that no one except a bastard like you could do such an abstract thing!"

Opposite Jiang Yan, Topa with a painful look on his face, Xing with a desperate look on her face, and Gui Naifen with an angry face were all glaring at Jiang Yan.

The Dark Duel might have been a mere gimmick at first, but after a battle between Silver Wolf and Black Tower, it became the unwavering theme of the tournament. The entire interstellar internet was now consumed with discussion about the weapons and methods of the finals' Dark Duel. Contestants Gui Naifen and Xing were completely stunned, and they dreamed of being reduced to ash by orbital cannon fire just as they summoned an Ether Spirit.

If only players from the Aether Front were participating in this tournament, everyone could get together and discuss whether they could be more open and honest. After all, we're here to play games, not risk our lives. But a genuine Giovanni the Masked Fool has already made it to the tournament. Would he honestly play Aether Spirit with everyone? No one would believe it!

In desperation, the two players who no longer knew how to play and the coach who no longer knew how to teach had no choice but to look at Jiang Yan in unison, swearing not to let him go until they gave everyone an explanation.

Seeing that he had just learned that he was the instigator of the "Dark Duel" and was about to eat his own Gui Naifen, Jiang Yan knew that if he didn't say something, this already furious guy would pull out the electromagnetic listening device. He quickly started to improvise nonsense whatever came to his mind:

"Well... well, how should I put it... a Dark Duel is nothing more than a Duel with a few extra elements. If you don't control the Ether Spirit to attack when the timer expires, you're bound to lose."

"So, during your turn, you should focus on defending and controlling the Ether Spirit's attacks. During your opponent's turn, you should focus on attacking, leaving them with no energy left to control the Ether Spirit. Don't be fooled by the battle between Silver Wolf and Black Tower. How could you possibly achieve this?"

"Really?" Xing couldn't help but feel skeptical after hearing what Jiang Yan said.

Could it be that dark duels also have their own rules and routines? I just haven't grasped them yet?

However, Gui Naifen, who was more familiar with Jiang Yan, ruthlessly exposed him:

"I don't believe you! Tell me, what tricks do you have to save us from being beaten to death?"
