Exotic Battlefield: I Can Activate Dual Talents-Chapter 126 - 120: Call Me... Guan Yue

Listening to Zhou Ziqiang whining like a disgruntled housewife, Lu Lin couldn’t help but find it amusing.

Xiao Ru’s Star Skill was guided out by him.

At first, Lu Lin thought Xiao Ru’s Star Skill was summoning cats.

Because when Lu Lin experimented in his own Star Power Domain, he could indeed summon a silly and clumsy little white cat.

But unexpectedly, this Star Skill could also summon hedgehogs, foxes, turtles, big dogs...

And all these little animals were white.

This made Lu Lin a bit curious.

Could it be that Xiao Ru’s Star Skill was different from his understanding and had mutated?

"Brother Lu Lin, don’t listen to Zhou Ziqiang’s nonsense."

After Zhou Ziqiang had almost finished speaking, Xiao Ru started to explain.

"These little animals go back to the black hole to rest at night and don’t disturb his sleep at all."

"His dark circles are from staying up late playing games, he thinks I don’t know."

"Hum, Zhou Ziqiang is just bad, always slandering me in front of you, don’t listen to him."

Xiao Ru snorted coldly, and Lu Lin found her demeanor a bit odd...

Oddly cute.

After comforting the siblings for a while, Lu Lin thought there was nothing more to say and hung up the phone.

Then Zhou Ziqiang dropped another piece of news.

He was rejected by Mercury Marine Academy just because his initial refining degree was 0.01% too low, he was ruthlessly turned away.

But by this time, the federation’s major universities had basically completed their admissions processes.

Zhou Ziqiang had only one last choice.

It was to go to Luse Alliance College with Lu Lin.

Lu Lin chuckled: "That’s pretty good, I have a house on Alien already, then you and Xiao Ru can stay there temporarily, and later we’ll manage Xiao Ru’s transfer together."

"A house?"

"Mr. Lu is impressive. Mr. Lu is bold. Mr. Lu is awesome!"

Zhou Ziqiang sincerely praised.

Alien’s housing prices are much higher than those on Blue Star, Mars, Mercury, and other places.

The residents there are primarily Star Core Warriors.

Star Core Warriors hunt in Exotic Battlefields and earn at least hundreds of thousands, if not millions, at a time, so they don’t lack money for buying houses.

Thus, Alien’s housing market got inflated.

"Alright, since we’re studying at Alien from now on, let’s talk when we get there, I need to catch the starship now."

"See you on Alien."

"Okay, Mr. Lu, see you on Alien."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Lin walked out of the room, accompanied by his parents downstairs, where Da Xiang, Wang Juan, Ma Yan, and Li Tingting were also present outside his home.

"Oh dear, Ma Yan, you look like you shouldn’t be sending me off."

Lu Lin felt a bit helpless seeing even Ma Yan had come.

The girl had been hurt just the day before yesterday, and her health hadn’t recovered yet, but she was here to send him off.

"Don’t worry about Ma Yan, she’s got Doctor Chen looking after her, so Lu Lin, you should worry less," Wang Juan interjected.

Ma Yan pretended to be shy and secretly pinched Wang Juan.

"Alright, thanks to everyone for today, later you ride with Da Xiang, while I ride with my parents," Lu Lin said, causing the group to feel envious.

They knew Lu Lin had earned a lot guiding Star Skills, but didn’t expect he would have bought a car for his parents so soon.

When they saw father Lu Ping drive over in the latest Kmaire, they were stunned with their jaws dropped.

The car must cost over 2 million.

Is being a Star Guide really this profitable?

Lu Lin briefly explained to them that it was funded by the Governor’s Mansion.

Even so, the four classmates couldn’t shake off their disbelief.

They knew Star Core Warriors made good money.

But they didn’t realize just how good.

Lu Lin was returning to Saturn, all in just about a week’s time, and even the Governor’s Mansion was eagerly giving him cars.

Wang Juan and Da Xiang exchanged a glance after getting into the car.

They realized they needed to work harder on cultivation, increasing the amount of Star Power stored inside them, so when Lu Lin found a way for them to awaken, they wouldn’t be caught off guard.

The journey took them to the Double Name City Universe Transportation Center, where father Lu Ping and Da Xiang parked the car and accompanied Lu Lin to the waiting hall.

"Lu Lin, take care of yourself on this trip to Alien, we’ll be waiting to hear your news back on Saturn,"

"Yes, make some waves for Lishui Bay Primary School, show your face, let the big shots know Saturn can also produce strong people,"

Each of the four came up to Lu Lin to hug him and offer a word of encouragement.

Lu Lin also felt a weight in his heart.

Saturn, for a long time, has been seen by federation people as a barren and impoverished place.

Although the East Forest Continent’s development speed wasn’t slow, the impression formed over a thousand years was hard to shake off.

Additionally, few strong individuals have emerged locally from Saturn.

Among the nine Titled King powerhouses, only Zhao Lei was promoted on Saturn; the other eight have no connection to Saturn.

Countless Saturn citizens eagerly hope that one day Saturn can produce a peerless powerhouse, so Saturnites can speak confidently and assertively online.

"Don’t worry, I’ll work hard,"

Lu Lin nodded firmly.

Maybe he can’t represent Saturn now.

But one day, he’ll make the federation see Saturn in a different light.

No matter how luxurious other places are, there’s no substitute for one’s own home.

Blue Star may be nice, but it isn’t truly home.

No matter how rough Saturn is, it’s where Lu Lin was born and raised.

"Passengers boarding Starship C0977 please prepare, ticket inspection will begin shortly."

The boarding announcement for Lu Lin’s starship sounded in the waiting hall.

Lu Lin knew.

The time for departure had arrived.

"Dad, Mom, I’m leaving now, you must take good care of yourselves."

"I’ll work hard cultivating outside, you don’t need to worry."

"Don’t hesitate to spend money, eat well when you should, and if you need to commute, have Dad drive you instead of waiting for the bus in the wind and rain."

"And also..."

Lu Lin rattled on, until his dad suddenly patted him on the shoulder.

"Alright, alright, you’re not that old but you sure nag a lot."

"Your mom and I are already in our fifties and yet you worry about taking care of us."

"When you arrive at the alien planet, don’t be too aggressive."

"But if someone bullies you, don’t be a coward either."

"See life and death lightly, if you’re not satisfied, go ahead and fight; in our old Lu family, there are no cowards."

Lu Ping rarely spoke so much, accustomed to silence after returning from service in the City Defense Army.

But Lu Lin was going to a place he and Meng Yu had never been to, where their life experiences couldn’t provide guidance.

"Okay, let me say a few words less."

"Son, call us once you arrive at the alien planet, make sure to get along with your dorm mates, avoid conflict, and pay attention to the teacher’s lectures..."

Mom, tearful, continued her advice to Lu Lin.

Lu Lin absorbed every word, committing them to memory.

"Passengers of Starship C0977, please prepare; boarding has commenced."

The broadcast echoed once more in the waiting hall.

Meng Yu paused his words.

Lu Lin hugged his parents, "Mom and Dad, don’t worry."

Then, releasing them, he embraced Da Xiang, Wang Juan, and others once more.

He waved, pushed his suitcase, carrying ten boxes of dumplings, heading to the boarding gate.

As an elite investigator at the Star Investigation Office, Lu Lin naturally could board the starship for free.

He just needed to scan his personal terminal at the boarding gate.

After passing through the security gate, Lu Lin looked back.

Dad, Mom, Wang Juan, Da Xiang, Ma Yan, and Li Tingting continued waving at him.

Lu Lin smiled, waved back, goodbye, Saturn.

But just as Lu Lin was about to turn and leave, he saw a white figure rushing towards the boarding gate.

It was!

Lu Lin’s eyes suddenly narrowed, unsure of the feeling in his heart.

It was Guan Yue.

Lu Lin saw clearly.

Guan Yue was still wearing the outfit he saw her in earlier at the Star Guide Association, her heels clacking crisply on the airport’s marble floor.

She kept running.

Kept running.

She caught sight of Lu Lin.

A subtle blush appeared on Guan Yue’s face.

She reached Lu Lin.

Only a boarding gate separated them.

Surrounded by hurried travelers.

"President."

Lu Lin softly said.

Guan Yue’s chest heaved, panting heavily.

Yet her eyes remained bright.

She stared directly at Lu Lin.

"Don’t call me President, call me... Guan Yue."

Lu Lin smiled.

He hadn’t expected Guan Yue to drive all the way from Green City, rushing to him just to correct his address.

Be it as it may.

"Guan Yue."

Guan Yue nodded, smiling in satisfaction.

She just looked at Lu Lin.

Not mentioning the inner turmoil after Lu Lin left the Star Guide Association.

Not speaking of how many speeding tickets she received racing from Green City and Double Name City.

Nor expressing the fiery flame burning within her heart at this moment.

She simply looked at Lu Lin.

Just looking at Lu Lin.

Continuing to gaze at Lu Lin, who smiled back, waving to her.

Watching as his figure became obscured by other travelers.

Just observing as Lu Lin gradually faded from her sight.

Guan Yue felt a flush across her face.

Uncertain when.

Tears flowed from her eyes, clear and warm.

They streamed down her cheeks, past the corner of her mouth.

Guan Yue tasted the tears.

Salty.

Not the least bit pleasant.
