Chapter 684

The video continues.

After the matter was settled, everyone gradually dispersed.

Only Yu Liu, Stelle, Hearing Yanqing, and Miss Lingsha remained where they were.

【I anticipated company personnel would be troublesome, but I didn't expect them to be this difficult.】

【Thank you, Miss Lingsha, for your help.】

Hearing Yanqing finally had the chance to formally thank Miss Lingsha.

【I must also thank you for saving my life—thanks to your superb swordsmanship, you brought down this giant.】

【I had assumed the General's attendants were all towering warriors... I never imagined Hearing Yanqing, my lord, would be so...】

Miss Lingsha carefully examined Hearing Yanqing, a teasing smile tugging at her lips.

【Cute.】

Stelle picked up where Miss Lingsha left off.

【Hmm, you're right.】

【As for these three, they must be guests from the Stellar Train, yes?】

【You saved Luo Fu from ruin—truly admirable.】

Miss Lingsha turned to the three members of the train crew and began her flattery.

【Hehe, it wasn't that impressive~】

March 7th felt a little flattered by the praise.

【It's still early—why not take this opportunity to join us for tea at the IPC?】

【In particular, I'd like to hear your suggestions regarding the IPC's reconstruction.】

Stelle: "Oh? Going to the IPC again?"

Stelle: "Can I get a free physical exam?"

March 7th: "With your physical condition, do you even need an exam?"

March 7th: "Be good, let's not waste medical resources, okay?"

Stelle: "My body's in great shape."

Stelle: "But what if there's some invisible illness?"

Stelle: "That's why early detection and early treatment matter!"

Miss Qingque: "You can fit a Star Core inside your body—what kind of hidden illness could you possibly have?"

Miss Qingque: "If you really have a hidden illness, it's probably just that Star Core of yours."

Lumine: "I'm curious—what does it feel like to have a Star Core inside you?"

Asta: "Uh... for ordinary people, having a Star Core inside means certain death, right?"

Stelle: "Honestly, I don't feel much—maybe it's like a power bank?"

Stelle: "I'm not sure."

Stelle: "If I had to rate it, I'd say it's not as good as the Foundation Stone!"

Sango: "Friend, you really know your stuff."

Paimon: "The Foundation Stone grants one-tenth of a Messenger's power."

Paimon: "While the Star Core is also powerful, it doesn't seem to have given Stelle any noticeable boost."

Paimon: "From this perspective, the Foundation Stone is indeed superior."

Furina: "And most importantly, the Foundation Stone has no hidden dangers—it's far safer."

Furina: "But the Star Core? That's another story."

Hu Tao: "Could it be that 157 hasn't yet found a way to harness or control the Star Core's power?"

Hu Tao: "If she could find a way to use the Star Core's power, Stelle's strength would probably surge dramatically, right?"

Stelle: "I've tried, but the Star Core inside me completely ignores me."

Stelle: "Looks like this path is still long and arduous..."

The video continues.

【Then I shall not refuse your kind invitation.】

Hearing Yanqing nodded and accepted Miss Lingsha's invitation.

【The three of you must come along too.】

Miss Lingsha turned to the three members of the train crew.

【No problem!】

The three replied in unison.

Then they set off together toward the IPC.

After some time, they arrived at the IPC's territory.

And from afar, Stelle spotted Miss Sushang standing guard nearby.

She left the group and ran over to Miss Sushang.

【Hey? Stelle!】

【You're back in Luo Fu!】

【Why didn't you say anything in the group chat first!】

【I'm on duty—let's chat later.】

Miss Sushang looked delighted to see Stelle.

【Miss Sushang, you're on duty?】

【Oh.】

【Bleh bleh bleh!】

Hearing that Miss Sushang was on duty standing guard,

Stelle couldn't help but make a funny face,

preparing to tease her.

【...】

【...】

【Pfft... I'm warning you, the sentry post is sacred, you know!】

【Don't be all giggly with me, you're getting on my nerves!】

【If you have nothing else to do, stop loitering around here.】

【Once I'm done with work in a few days, let's call Xiao Xiao Guizi and Huo Huo and go eat at Golden Man Alley together.】

【It's been ages since we got together.】

【Goodbye!】

Hu Tao: "Eiya, I actually got to see Miss Sushang herself this time!"

Hu Tao: "By the way, why is Miss Sushang on duty here?"
