99: Chapter 99 Friendly Interactions with Angels and Demons

Besides Olympia, they also "ran into" the team leaders of several other delegations.

The Angel Race delegation was entirely made up of girls—seven angel students with snow-white wings on their backs, stunningly beautiful appearances, and a holy temperament. The leader was a soft and cute girl named Ling Xi.

She was also a Light-element talent. After seeing Li Yuan's Light Guardian summons and Laya's [Song of Light], she became very interested and brought the entire Angel Legion squad over to "visit" several times.

"Your summoned units are so interesting!" Ling Xi cupped her face, looking at the Light Guardians patrolling the dormitory with sparkling eyes. "Can I touch them?"

Laya nodded generously: "Sure, but they don't have any feelings; they are just light element constructs."

Ling Xi carefully reached out and touched the armor of a Light Guardian. Her fingers passed through the light-textured surface, causing a ripple.

"Such a pure light element structure..." she exclaimed softly. "It's much more refined than the standard constructs of our Angel Legion. Student Li Yuan, is your talent [Light Energy Messenger]? May I ask about the specific principles?"

Li Yuan answered using the excuse he had prepared beforehand: "It's just summoning and strengthening light-element creations. As for the specific principles... I'm not too sure either. It's a talent; as long as I know how to use it, that's enough."

Ling Xi nodded as if she understood, and didn't pry further.

Actually, an older-looking angel sister in her team took a few more looks at Laya and said softly: "The light-element skills on this student... are very special. They are a bit like our angels' 'Holy Radiance,' but not quite the same."

Laya tilted her head: "What is Holy Radiance?"

"It is the external manifestation of the light bloodline inherent to us angels," the angel sister explained gently. "Your light is more... warm, and has more vitality."

Laya smiled happily: "That's because I am Brother Li Yuan's guardian angel!"

The angel sister was stunned for a moment, then smiled as well: "I see."

Li Yuan listened from the side, silently adding another point to Laya's "persona" in his heart.

The Demon Race delegation was also entirely female—or to be precise, the Moon Spirit Warrior clan among the succubi.

Their appearance was almost indistinguishable from ordinary humans, except for their pure silver hair and a pair of black wings on their backs that could be retracted and hidden. Their temperament was cold and glamorous, with a touch of mystery, which unexpectedly matched Elia's "ice beauty" style.

The team was led by a girl named Ye Ge. She didn't talk much, but every time she spoke, she "hit the nail on the head."

"There is a problem with your tactical coordination." After watching the Flame Dragon team train one time, Ye Ge crossed her arms and commented indifferently, "You rely too much on Student Li Yuan's summoned units as the front line. If you encounter enemies capable of quickly breaking through the front line, the back line will collapse instantly."

Elia looked at her with ice-blue eyes: "Do you have any suggestions?"

"Moon Spirit Warriors are adept at high-speed maneuvering and striking weak points," Ye Ge said calmly. "We can cooperate in training. You provide frontal containment, and we are responsible for flanking—simulating the decapitation tactics of high-level Zerg units."

Elia thought about it and nodded: "Okay."

So, for the next two days, the Flame Dragon team and the Moon Spirit Warrior team conducted several joint training sessions.

Then the Moon Spirit team got educated. They finally understood why Li Yuan and his team's tactics were like that; Aria and the others didn't have to consider defense at all.

Just three Light Guardians entangled their 7 people so they couldn't break through, and there were 100 such summoned creatures. The remaining 10 Light Mages had great awareness and high output. And that one Light-Bathing Battle Spirits was simply a BOSS; it couldn't be beaten, had high damage, and could perform group healing and attack-based life steal...

After a battle ended, the seven Moon Spirit girls wearing tight short skirts and gear were lying on the training ground in disarray. They weren't hurt, but they were too tired to even move.

Nearby, the 7 angel girls were riding on top of the Moon Spirit girls, poking this and pinching that. Although angels and demons were no longer hostile, this was a rare opportunity. They had to take pictures to brag about when they went back, Ling Xi thought with a giggle.

Then, they were caught and successfully counter-pinned by Ye Ge, who had recovered some strength. It entered Ye Ge's rhythm, with scenes of "spring light" flying everywhere.

"Sigh, the relationship between angels and demons is really good." Li Yuan shook his head and sighed.

As for the Light Giant Race... Li Yuan was indeed quite interested in them, but after trying to communicate a few times, he found that there were really no common topics.

The aesthetic differences were too great—Li Yuan thought their red and silver color scheme was quite cool, but the Giants of Lights felt that the human warships' "lines were not smooth enough, lacking the beauty of light."

Their eating methods were different—the Giants of Lights mainly relied on absorbing light energy and found the human behavior of "stuffing organic matter into an organ called a mouth for chemical decomposition" to be "hard to understand."

Even their sleeping habits were different—the Giants of Lights didn't need to sleep; they used "periodic light energy meditation" to restore their spirit. One night when Li Yuan got up for water, he saw a Giants of Light student in the courtyard "absorbing moonlight" while facing the moon; the scene was once very fantastical.

As for the Specium Ray, Emerium Ray, Ultra Slash, Guillotine, Plasma Spark Slash, etc., that he saw on TV before crossing over, none of these students knew them.

In the end, Li Yuan gave up.

"Let's just make friends with people we can eat with." He summarized to Laya.

Laya nodded in deep agreement, then whispered: "Master, should we invite Ling Xi and Ye Ge's group to eat? I see they seem interested in human food too..."

Li Yuan thought for a moment: "Okay, let's grab a meal after training tomorrow."

The three days of free time passed in a flash.

On the first morning of the official visit, all delegations gathered at the central square of St. Alburn Glory Academy.

Over sixty races and nearly twenty thousand students, wearing the distinctive clothing or uniforms of their respective civilizations, stood in square formations.

The academy's guides, wearing uniform scholar robes, stood on the high platform in front of the square.

"Welcome to St. Alburn Glory Academy for the 214th Ten Thousand Races Alliance Academy Visiting Season."

The white-haired old man in the lead had a gentle voice, yet it clearly spread throughout the square.

"The core spirit of this visiting season remains equality, friendship, exchange, mutual assistance, win-win, and sharing. The essence of this visit is to exchange and learn to collide and create more, newer, and stronger technologies. It is not about who is stronger or weaker. This visiting season will abandon the flashy sparring matches of the past and focus on 'battlefield trials' that are closer to actual combat. But before that—"

He paused, his gaze sweeping across the young faces below.

"We will use seven days to lead you deep into the core areas of the shared Holy Alliance, to understand the technologies, tactics, and civilizational achievements we have developed in the long war against the Zerg."

"Today's first stop—"

The old man raised his hand and pointed to the east side of the square. There, rows of pure white streamlined hover buses were slowly driving over.

"Holy Brilliance Purity Biological Agents R&D Group."

"The largest and most advanced biological gene research institution in the known universe."

"You will witness with your own eyes how we transform the threat of the Zerg into the power to protect civilization."
