Reverse flow of the Yellow Springs

Chapter 75 Harvest
Because of her extremely strong resistance to curses and the fact that she was unaffected by the Little Mad King's curse, Li Yelai was at least able to communicate with her normally.

Instead of maintaining a wary distance, their words were filled with suspicion.

But the pressure from the Little Mad King was extremely intense!
This is not the nervousness a boy feels when interacting with a girl who is exceptionally beautiful.

The cheese and the doll are equally outstanding in appearance.

Li Yelai got along very well with them.

Although Cheese is a seasoned pro and often makes witty remarks in private.

However, Li Yelai has gradually become immune to this and has begun to try to fight back. He's managing to hold his own.

The doll becomes easily shy after taking off its costume, but it has a very kind personality and is very friendly to its dining partner, Li Yelai.

However, sometimes Li Yelai doesn't know where to look. She needs to be talked to about this.

This is not a sense of pressure related to status or identity.

After all, Li Yelai had met several captains with high status.

My team captain, champion Yang Chen, is an upright and enthusiastic person.

Yin Huo, the captain of the second team, was quite familiar with Li Yelai because of the Ark spy project. He loved to devise strategies and was known as the "Old Coin."

The fourth team captain, Yueying, had a good relationship with Yang Chen, and Li Yelai also became familiar with him.

He's usually a quiet, handsome man, but he can turn into a troll when necessary. If he ever becomes king, he'll probably be called the King of Trolls.

It wasn't nervousness about the opposite sex, nor pressure from superiors.

So, I guess it's more like a sense of urgency regarding our strength?
In short, Little Mad King was somewhat dissatisfied with Li Yelai's growth rate.

Li Yelai could somewhat understand the Little Mad King's mentality, because of her curse, she was never trusted by anyone.

They were wronged, slandered, and suspected.
But despair did not break her; instead, it made her stronger!

To prove herself, she worked hard to advance her career, always throwing herself into the most dangerous missions.

He grew up amidst repeated dangers, which is why he was able to reach the sixth level of perception at the age of twenty-four.

It is the fastest growing processor.

She couldn't be happier that Li Yelai would take three naps in the morning, four naps at night, and five naps the next day.

Li Yelai immediately retorted, "If I had this kind of advancement speed, I would have been twisted into some kind of monster by now! You guys better hurry up and surround and wipe me out!"

To this, Little Mad King shook his head and replied, "You awakened for the second time a month and a half after becoming a psionicist. At this rate, you should be able to achieve your third awakening this year. If you can maintain high-intensity combat and master your psionic abilities even more, your breakthrough speed will probably be even faster. Hurry up, Night General, don't waste your talent."

"I will do my best." Li Yelai could only nod.

It felt like going back to my student days, with the class monitor grabbing me by the collar and forcing me to study harder.

There's definitely a strong sense of urgency.

"The giant city may take action against the restricted area next, so the stronger we are, the better, until then."

"Action has been taken against the restricted area?" Li Yelai's heart tightened. Has it really come to this?

The Forbidden Zone of Calamity is a completely different civilization and world.

For example, the Doomsday Forest is home to a vast number of extraordinary creatures living in a huge forest.

Although the core area is managed by the King of the Forbidden Zone, its level of civilization is not high.

Therefore, psionicists in the giant city can hunt extraordinary creatures within it, as long as they don't get close to the core area.

Heavenly Mountain and Black Source City, however, possess a relatively high level of civilization. Each has its own legions and cities within the forbidden zone.

Psionicists can only hunt supernatural creatures on the edge of the restricted area or in the outside world; if they get too close, they might attract the army.

Li Yelai, the dual-wielding knight, came from Black Source City.

He was one of the thousands of knights among them.

According to intelligence, they are all beings from the Void Realm, and humans cannot kill them completely; they can only exile them.

This alone is enough to make humanity feel despair and indignation.

The armies that humanity has expended resources and paid the price to destroy will return from the virtual realm time and time again.

For humans, death is truly death.
How unfair!

Therefore, even in large cities with abundant martial spirit, they often adopt a defensive posture towards restricted areas.

Both sides maintained a distance that was neither too close nor too distant, and both tried to avoid direct conflict.

But now they say the giant city is going to take action?

Is it time to switch from defense to offense?

Isn't the risk too great?

Or perhaps the old Mad King's condition is truly dire, and he intends to finish things off while he's still alive!

This was actually a situation that middle and senior management had anticipated.

If the old Mad King dies of old age, then the third border city will be in an awkward situation without a king to govern it.

When that time comes, those three forbidden zones of calamity will surely take action!

Now that the old Mad King still has fighting power, he will probably make a move against a certain restricted area before the final deadline.

Li Yelai had thought he had several more years to postpone things, but he hadn't expected the plan to already be on the agenda.
This made Li Yelai feel a sense of tension.

"I can't say anything more; your authority isn't high enough. In short, don't waste your talent," the Little Mad King warned again, "lest you be powerless when danger strikes."

At this moment, other processors arrived from a distance, calling out to Li Ye to assemble.

After Li Yelai turned around to greet him, he turned back but Little Mad King was nowhere to be seen.

With the operation concluded, the authorities began sending more personnel deeper underground.

Effectively remove the various evil rituals left underground by the Ember Church.

Burn the heads that were arranged into a mound in the underground building.

The bloody scene caused many civilian staff members who had never seen blood to vomit.

That's considered good; the Church of the Embers also has internal divisions and factions, supposedly due to differing beliefs.

The evil rituals performed also vary greatly.

At least, the dispatched forces that have been eliminated so far are simply those who enjoy killing and fighting.

It's said that a branch stronghold in the wilderness that was previously wiped out contained a ritual that made even the elite Night Scouts feel nauseous and physically uncomfortable. Twisted flesh, tormented souls—this created an evil ritual powerful enough to collapse the Soul Well of a psychic.

Fortunately, it hasn't reached that point yet.

The official inventory of the spoils has been completed, with the most important item being the Train to the Underworld.

This forbidden object has significant strategic importance.

With proper management, a large number of troops can be transported to the required location at any time, regardless of physical distance.

Imagine a dangerous situation where emergency responders or civilians need assistance.

A train suddenly burst through a hole and rushed in. Hundreds of psionicists disembarked. The scene was simply breathtaking!
Moreover, the Yellow Springs Train also has the ability to explore underground routes.

It can help the megacity build a better underground defense network.

"Hmm, while it can't stop Night General's vehicle killers," a captain pondered, "it's undoubtedly a powerful forbidden weapon!"

"Indeed, it's a strategically forbidden object." Another captain muttered, "The Night General's vehicle killer can't even withstand a forbidden object."

Overall, the official gains this time were quite substantial.

They achieved a complete victory with minimal casualties.

Of course, none of this had anything to do with Li Yelai for the time being. He met up with Cheese when he met up with his teammates.

She was wearing combat gear and sitting on a broken stone pillar, her delicate face pale.

When he saw Li Yelai, his eyes seemed to gleam.

"Hi, Xiaoye." She waved her left hand. Her right arm was injured and in a cast, now hanging on her full chest.

It is said that during the advance, some followers were twisting into a chaotic egg.

Although the twisting was forcibly interrupted by the cheese's attack, before dying, it still unexpectedly lashed out at the cheese with a whip.

Fortunately, the cheese reacted adequately.

There was a fracture in his arm, but he wouldn't be able to move it for a while.

"Look at you, you got hurt the moment I wasn't around," Li Yelai complained, and stepped forward to help Cheese.

"Who knew it would turn into a tentacle monster? You know, tentacle monsters are especially effective against pretty girls!" Cheese's face was pale from the pain, but he was still talking nonsense.

Li Yelai retorted, "The Chaos Egg is a tentacle monster, but you're not a pretty girl either. How old are you?"

"Tsk! I'm forever eighteen!" Cheese rolled his eyes at him and continued, "His twisted imperfections were killed by a single spike I stabbed him. Who would have thought he'd pull out a whip in the end?"

"Kill him with earth spikes?" Li Yelai was taken aback. Are earth spikes really that powerful?

“Yeah, even the most powerful monster has a hot rectum. Once the psionic barrier is broken, one stab and it’s done!” Cheese grinned.

"He stabbed you to death like that? No wonder he stabbed you before he died!" Li Yelai gasped, while several male staff members nearby also distanced themselves in fear.

Then Cheese said, "I heard you stopped the train. Great job, expanding your gains!"

“I also received a satisfactory reward,” Li Yelai nodded.

Indeed, Li Yelai's gains were quite impressive; the Mountain Lord clone alone was enough to make many processors envious.

There was nothing they could do; Li Yelai was the biggest contributor, after all. He single-handedly expanded the victory!

This mountain lord clone is one of the rewards given by the official team. There will also be merit point rewards later.

In addition, the Fiery Broken Blade, a loot item, should also fetch a considerable amount of merit points.

Li Ye estimated that this time, he would be able to accumulate enough merit points to buy the Awakening Elixir.

Afterwards, the team assembled, and Li Yelai and the others left the underground area from a certain stronghold.

After returning to the ground, Li Yelai called Li Yunyan and the doll to let them know he was safe.

After confirming several times that he was not cursed, Li Yelai helped Zhishi into the official vehicle.

He planned to send the injured cheese home first.

It was already past six in the morning when we got close to Cheese's house.

The sky began to brighten.

The early risers in the megacity have already started working.

People buying vegetables, setting up stalls, and even those who arrived earlier.

They obviously didn't know.

Last night, just tens of meters underground, a bloody battle began and ended.

Cheese, sitting next to Li Yelai, watched this peaceful scene for a long time.

Then, he laughed and said, "Only when I see this scene can I be sure that everything we've done has been worthwhile!"

There was a mixture of joy and weariness in her smile. Bathed in the hazy light of the sky, it possessed an almost surreal beauty.

"really."

Li Yelai nodded in agreement, somewhat dejectedly.

After a night of fierce fighting, Li Yelai was indeed quite exhausted.

Even with a strengthened physical body, fatigue was unavoidable. He yawned quite a few times along the way.

"Tired? Don't bother seeing me off, go home and get some rest," Cheese said upon seeing this.

"Forget it, I won't see you off. You can't even open the door." Li Ye looked at Cheese's arm and shook his head slightly.

A smile appeared in Cheese's eyes: "Then I'll treat you to breakfast. The breakfast here is pretty good."

"You've finally said that!" Li Yelai was overjoyed upon hearing this.

He then called out to a roadside stall, "Boss, give me a multigrain pancake! With an egg!"

"Tsk, you're really stingy. I've already treated you, and you're only adding one more?" Cheese muttered, but his eyes crinkled with even more amusement. "Boss, add two more!"

Cheese didn't live with his uncle, but in an apartment quite close to the branch office.

The room was furnished with exquisite furniture.

The white cabinet contains many exquisite teacups and coffee cups, as well as a large quantity of saccharin and coffee.

Standing on the balcony, you can see the branch's ground-level buildings in the distance.

After returning home, Cheese, whose arm was injured, found it very difficult to move around.

"Could you open the cabinet for me?"

"it is good."

"Could you get me my cup and coffee?"

"it is good."

"Help me take off my clothes."

"OK?"

Just as Li Ye was about to rave about a cup of coffee to perk himself up, he suddenly stopped and stared blankly at the cheese.

Cheese's cheeks flushed slightly as she pointed to her combat uniform, which was stained with blood, and said, "I can't keep wearing this forever, can I?"

With one arm in a cast, it was really difficult for her to take off her clothes.

However, undressing the girl made Li Yelai somewhat embarrassed.

"I'm a man, after all."

Cheese seemed to sense Li Yelai's embarrassment and said in a teasing tone, "We've seen it before, haven't you seen me in a swimsuit too?"

Yes, it was during the practice of the psionic barrier. Cheese was wearing a white swimsuit.
I hope everything is alright.
"Okay, tell me if it hurts." Li Yelai took a deep breath, stepped forward and stretched out his slightly trembling hands, and began to unbutton the cheese one button at a time.

The softness that his fingers inadvertently touched made Li Yelai blush slightly, while Cheese trembled slightly, his eyes flashing with tension and hesitation.

As the buttons were undone, both of them began to breathe rapidly.

Li Yelai knew that as long as he pulled his hands outwards, he would see a beautiful sight.

But he estimated that he would also lose a friend forever.

So, Li Yelai looked away, slowly tore open the cuffs of his combat uniform, and carefully took it off.

Cheese, her face flushed, put on a thick nightgown, covering her fair body.

Cheese seemed to have lost interest in making flirtatious remarks, and instead whispered his thanks: "Thank you."

His voice carried a sense of relief and relaxation.

"It's nothing," Li Yelai replied softly.

However, he felt a burning sensation in his nose, which he guessed was due to a bit of internal heat.
