Chapter 440: Jade's stunning appearance. Is this how the crisis of Belobog was solved?

The place where the Astral Express crew was.

March 7th revealed a look of surprise in her eyes and said: "Eh! Didn't expect the Charmony Festival to continue?"

Following Dan Heng said sternly: "【Charmony Festival】 is after all an important celebration of the Harmony 【Family】. Although it was postponed because of some things, unless there is really no opportunity, it will not be canceled."

March 7th nodded and said: "But this time, will Miss Robin still appear?"

"The possibility shouldn't be high anymore, after experiencing Sunday's incident..."

Welt Yang adjusted his glasses and pondered: "But this head of the Clover Family, Old Oti, is really good at seizing the opportunity."

Stelle looked at Welt Yang and said: "Mr. Welt, are you saying that this Old Oti took the opportunity to hold the 【Charmony Festival】 to divert everyone's attention so they would no longer pay attention to the previous 【shock】?"

Welt Yang shook his head slightly and said: "Not only that, besides the accidents mentioned by Ms. Topaz, I guess this head of the Clover Family, Old Oti, is afraid he wants to take advantage of the downfall of the Oak Family and Sunday to step to the front and seize the right to speak of the Family."

March 7th covered her head upon hearing this and said: "Sigh, Sunday just fell, and these people are fighting for power? It's really complicated~ ah."

Following Dan Heng sighed: "In the universe, such things are not uncommon. Interests, private desires, ideals, and various thoughts make people fight for power. This is just the tip of the iceberg of the galaxy."

March 7th shook her head and said: "I am just a bit worried about Miss Robin now, I don't know how she is now."

Welt Yang comforted: "Rest assured, Miss Robin is a strong, brave, and intelligent girl, she is not as weak as you imagine."

Livestream room.

"I think this head of the Clover Family, Old Oti, is definitely not simple, brothers, what do you think?"

"What do you think? I sit and watch."

"What do you think? I lie down and watch."

"What do you think? I watch while working."

"..."

"Good guy, you guys are all skilled!"

"However, that brother is right, this head of the Clover Family, Old Oti, is afraid he is not a fuel-efficient lamp."

"From the moment he decisively decided to hold the 【Charmony Festival】 on his 【Radiant Feldspar】, I felt that this person is not simple."

"However, now the Family is in a disadvantageous position in all aspects, I am quite curious, what means will this head of the Clover Family use to resist the oppression of the IPC."

【In the game plot, after separating from that Family waiter, Topaz suddenly received a call. After hearing the voice on the phone, she immediately put on a small cat face—】

【"... Talent Incentive Department again? Internal audit? Is it ever going to end?"】

【Sighing deeply, Topaz frowned and said unpleasantly: "I am running a key project, no time to be angry with you."】

【"For that order in Jarilo, my handling method was passed by the high-level decision. The project log and call records are all complete, won't you check it yourself?"】

【"Really don't understand... you stare at this small case and don't let go, always raising it to the level of principle, what is your intention?"】

Luo Fu Xianzhou.

In the teahouse where players gathered.

A Xianzhou man said in surprise: "What did I hear, Jarilo, could it be that Jarilo?"

His companion said: "Should be, besides that Jarilo, do we know any other Jarilo?"

A Foxian woman looked at the plot and subtitles on her phone, rubbed her temples in confusion, and said: "How did Topaz and Jarilo get involved? I feel like I missed a huge plot."

Her Xianzhou best friend also guessed: "Listening to Topaz, it seems the IPC also has its eyes on Jarilo-VI."

A Xianzhou adult man at another table suddenly slapped the table and said: "I remembered, before, in the companion mission of Sparkle's Masked Duet, didn't Sampo reach some kind of deal with Sparkle?"

Other players also said: "Right, it seems to be taking back his mask or something."

The first Xianzhou man said: "Not bad, maybe it's because Sampo knew what problems Jarilo-VI was about to encounter, so he traded with Sparkle and took back his mask."

His companion said: "Judging from Sampo's previous plot, although he is also a Masked Fool, he looks much friendlier. I guess it's so that his hometown won't be tainted by the IPC."

Jarilo-VI.

Belobog.

Qliphoth Fort.

Bronya looked at Jarilo appearing in Topaz's mouth, and a sense of unease flooded her heart.

After becoming the Supreme Guardian, Bronya was no longer just a simple warrior like before, and many things could be traced.

Why the Stonehearts of the Strategic Investment Department would come looking for them, Bronya also had guesses in her heart.

It was precisely because she guessed it that her heart became even heavier.

Especially after flipping through historical materials, the content she explored made Bronya completely extinguish the psychological fluke.

However, just when Bronya was secretly anxious about the guess in her heart, she learned of such a result from Jade's mouth.

"Our Belobog, the kindness owed to the Astral Express, is really too heavy." ===== CHAPTER 441 =====

Welt Yang adjusted his glasses and said in a deep voice: "Perhaps we can guess based on the job responsibilities of the Ten Stonehearts..."

"The Ten Stonehearts, also known as 【Bad Asset Liquidation Specialists】, could it be..."

March 7th exclaimed: "Mr. Yang, do you mean that Topaz went there to collect a debt?"

Welt Yang nodded and said: "That is most likely the case."

Stelle asked in confusion: "But ever since Jarilo-VI was frozen by the power of the Stellaron, it has been in a state of lockdown. How could it have any debt relationship with the IPC?"

Following Dan Heng pondered: "Perhaps it is a matter from before the freezing. And now that we have resolved the Stellaron disaster on Jarilo-VI, the IPC knows that this planet has reconnected with the galaxy, so they will inevitably seize the opportunity to make a move."

Upon hearing this, March 7th could not help but worry: "Then the people of Belobog, and Bronya and the others, would be too wronged, wouldn't they? It's been hundreds of years."

Welt Yang sighed: "It is not just that. This debt has accumulated over these hundreds of years and is definitely an astronomical figure. Plus, with Belobog currently at a critical moment of reconstruction, they absolutely have no way to resist the IPC's actions."

Following Dan Heng's expression darkened, and he said helplessly: "This is also a muddled account, but the IPC will never do anything that isn't profitable. I fear Belobog is about to face a major crisis."

March 7th sighed: "They clearly survived a world-ending disaster, only to encounter something like this. Misfortunes really do come in pairs. Although it is only right and proper to pay back debts, the IPC is being a bit too opportunistic."

Welt Yang shook his head and said: "Don't forget, whether it is Aventurine or Boothill, their homelands all suffered because of the IPC's reach."

"Fortunately, it is not the Strategic Investment Department making a move this time, but this Miss Topaz. Judging from the plot where she appeared earlier, she should be a relatively reasonable person and won't be that extreme."

Following Dan Heng suddenly remembered something and said: "By the way, when we met Topaz at the Reverie Hotel earlier, judging from her conversation with us, it seemed like we had known each other for a long time. But since our attention was on the dreamscape, we didn't notice. Now it seems that is indeed the case."

March 7th asked in confusion: "But if that's the case, when did we meet? At the very least, we haven't met face-to-face in reality until now."

Welt Yang adjusted his glasses and said: "Perhaps it was during the incident on Jarilo-VI."

【In the game's plot, just as Topaz was arguing with the Talent Incentive Department on the other end of the phone, an elegant and dignified mature female voice came through—】

【"A tiresome conversation... You should have just hung up, shouldn't you?"】

【"In my opinion, you handled that project quite well."】

【Topaz heard this familiar voice and hurriedly turned around, only to see a woman wearing a lady's hat with a wide brim, standing with her back to the screen.】

【She was tall and had long purple hair. She gently put away the folder in her hand and turned to walk toward Topaz. Topaz's pet, Numby, seemed to have met its natural enemy and hid behind Topaz, shivering.】

【And this elegant, beautiful, and mature lady with purple hair, 【Jade】 of the Ten Stonehearts, said while walking toward Topaz: "Trading a tiny ice ball for a favor from the Astral Express—for some, it's a guaranteed profit."】

【After finishing the work discussion, Jade looked at Topaz and gently stroked her slightly flushed cheek, saying: "It's been a long time, little Jelena."】

【"I have been looking forward to working with you, but I didn't expect this day to come so soon."】

【Jade gently held up the 【Jade Cornerstone】 in her hand and said: "Have you encountered any trouble?"】

【"You can tell me anything, just like before."】

【Topaz clearly held quite intimate feelings for Jade. Seeing Jade's arrival, a look of admiration for an elder flashed in her eyes, and she revealed a smile of surprise and shyness.】

【Topaz suppressed the excitement in her heart and said in a formal and solemn tone: "Ms. Jade, long time no see. I am very honored to have the opportunity to work with you."】

【Looking at Topaz's appearance, Jade chuckled and said: "You're still so uptight. Put aside those hierarchical relationships and treat me as your equal. Unnecessary titles can be omitted—such as 【Ms.】, such as 【you】."】

【Topaz took a light breath, her nervousness and excitement fading slightly, and said: "Sorry, it's hard to adapt for a while. After all, you... you are my senior."】

The Luo Fu Xianzhou.

The Seat of Divine Foresight.

Lieutenant Yanqing felt a sense of unease watching Jade's appearance in the game.

Subconsciously, Lieutenant Yanqing understood that although he only knew her through the game's plot, he could feel that this kind of person was the type he was least skilled at dealing with.

Lieutenant Yanqing said with a somewhat constrained tone: "This Ms. Jade really has a powerful aura. One look and you can tell she is not someone easy to deal with."

General Jing Yuan smiled lightly and said: "This time you are right, Lieutenant Yanqing. This Ms. Jade is no simple character."

The Ten Stonehearts of the IPC are certainly not simple people, and as a major power in the galaxy, the Xianzhou is not without some basic knowledge of the important figures of the IPC.

Although it was only the simplest introduction, it was enough as a preliminary understanding.

However...

Listening to what Jade said earlier, General Jing Yuan basically had a guess about the outcome of that world of Jarilo.
