Chapter 356: Knight Sir! I really miss you

Ah???

Lin Ran looked dubiously at Zhang Jie, then turned her head to look at the huge disaster monster, feeling somewhat at a loss.

"Zhang Jie, are you sure?"

Lin Ran pointed at the disaster that kept blowing breath at her, constantly confirming.

Even though it had shrunk considerably, it was still half the size of a satellite! Moreover, its attack power wasn't weak either; she truly feared something might happen to Zhang Jie.

"I'm sure."

The black disaster stared at the few people, as if waiting for them to finish speaking, and this obedient behavior further confirmed Zhang Jie's guess.

The simulator's task was named 'Make Up', and combined with the familiar method of siphoning life, Zhang Jie felt that the thing before him was very likely the Blue Sapphire.

At the very least, it must be related to her.

"Then... then get ready!"

Zhang Jie nodded; his vitality was tenacious—even having his heart pierced posed no problem, he just needed to soak nicely in a star.

And just as her words fell, that huge figure dashed toward Zhang Jie like a gust of wind.

Lin Ran:!!!

Damn thing! It actually took advantage of her distraction......

The next moment, she saw the huge disaster already approaching Zhang Jie; just as she thought something shocking was about to happen, she saw the disaster's skull burst open, and a pitch-black petite figure shot out, as if shedding a rotting husk, and slammed straight into Zhang Jie's arms.

Lin Ran:!!!

Lin Ran: Not redeem!!!

Originally Zhang Jie was braced, watching the opponent charge at him, but the next moment that black figure fiercely lunged into his embrace, rubbing against him like a little cat.

Especially those sparkling blue eyes like gems let Zhang Jie completely confirm her identity.

"It... it's really the Blue Sapphire."

Having gotten this result, Zhang Jie didn't know whether he should be happier or sadder.

And at this moment she kept rubbing against Jierte's chest, having told herself in her heart she would only rub once, yet she couldn't control her longing.

She never imagined she could actually see Jierte again, nor that he still remembered her; she had many things she wanted to say, to tell him what she had been through, to tell him she had already taken revenge for him, to tell him of her longing.

But whether due to enduring countless ages or because she had become a disaster, the Blue Sapphire couldn't utter a single human word, only able to keep rubbing.

"Blue Sapphire?"

"Mm! Mm!"

She made the simplest tone to confirm her identity, while Lin Ran and Yunxiao in the distance watched this scene, their eyelids twitching constantly.

"Leader Lin, don't tell me another one's shown up...."

"You couldn't possibly have some kind of charm, could you? You even managed to attract one of these?"

Lin Ran gave Yunxiao, who was making a sarcastic remark, a glare, then glanced sullenly at the Blue Sapphire over there and said through gritted teeth.

"One after another! You're really treating this place like a gold mine!"

Yunxiao gave Lin Ran a speechless glance, feeling the sentence was somewhat familiar but couldn't recall where she'd heard it.

"But speaking frankly, isn't Zhang Jie himself a big gold mine...."

"Forget it, my head hurts, I can't figure it out."

Yunxiao gazed at the two figures, let out a leisurely sigh, her nanomechanical body gradually disintegrating, leaving only Lin Ran there grinding her teeth.

Meanwhile, Zhang Jie reached out to rub the cat's head, continually asking about the Blue Sapphire, but the Blue Sapphire could only utter an 'mm', and though it had various tones, it could express too little.

Ask her how she survived to now, she just says 'mm'; ask what happened afterward, she also says 'mm'; Zhang Jie simply cannot get any more information.

As he kept thinking, a gloomy, vinegar-tinged voice sounded.

"Zhang~Jie~"

"Won't you explain~?"

Looking at the resentful Lin Ran, Zhang Jie scratched his head, then could only sigh and shake his head.

"I'm not sure either; logically, she shouldn't be alive until now...."

When I left, the Blue Sapphire was still an ordinary cat; even with the Life Replacement ability, it could hardly have lived so long.

Unless....

Unless she wasn't human.

But looking at this result.... it's obvious the Blue Sapphire truly isn't human.

Looking at the troubled Zhang Jie, Lin Ran let out a weary sigh; what could she say? This wasn't Zhang Jie deliberately playing the field.

Lin Ran recalled that Yunxiao had previously communicated with her; back when Zhang Jie was an emotionless AI, it was because an invisible hand was tugging at fate behind the scenes, leading Zhang Jie to keep a solitary vigil for seventy thousand years.

Although Yunxiao finally personally tossed that thing aside, she still felt some mysterious existence was pulling the strings.

Just like now.... there's an unseen pair of big hands controlling everything.

Lin Ran just couldn't figure it out—every time! Every time is like this! She's like some plot trigger; as long as there's a bit of something, a girl pops out.

Lin Ran could barely hold back; she secretly swore in her heart, never let her know which damned bastard! She also wants to give the other side a toss like Yunxiao did.

Meanwhile, the husk shed by the Blue Sapphire kept decomposing; seeing this, Lin Ran finally realized this thing was actually a disaster.

Gazing at Lin Ran constantly grinding her teeth, Zhang Jie glanced at the Blue Sapphire and ultimately decided to proactively tell Lin Ran what happened in his previous simulation.

Previously, every time someone else did the telling, but this time the narrator became himself.

"Lin Ran, things are like this..."

Hearing Zhang Jie recount his own affairs, the Blue Sapphire appeared even happier; as Zhang Jie spoke, she gave timely 'mm's, looking quite delighted.

"This Boss is obviously not something fun at a glance...."

"You didn't realize?"

"Zhang Jie was helpless; in the simulation, he didn't have that kind of brain, so ending up like this was unavoidable."

"Ababa! Ababababababa!"

"At this moment, Lan Baoshi didn't know what they had heard; they suddenly became excited, but unable to say what, they could only babble, leaving Zhang Jie feeling exasperated."

"Seeing Zhang Jie not understand, Lan Baoshi grew a bit anxious; her clear blue eyes kept rolling, and she, who had just woken up, wasn't very smart yet."

"After a moment, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration, thinking of something, and anxiously fiddled with a dark, murky mass."

"Soon, a mass of black text appeared above Lan Baoshi's head, and the first line was:"

"Knight Sir! I miss you so much! (heart)(heart)"
