Chapter 1145: Chapter 403: The Repaired Cross of Light
Putting aside these extra thoughts for now, the spaceship, under the control of the Undead, had arrived at the edge of the Star Port and started docking.
Through the porthole, the students welcoming them and the visitors from the Starry Sky were clearly visible within the Star Port.
It was understandable that the students were there to welcome them, since it was their own academy, and it wasnât unusual for students to come and greet them.
But according to the synchronized news from Shang Ji, ever since her return schedule was announced, these visitors from the Starry Sky had already arrived at the Star Port ahead of time.
"There are still so many people. Before this Starry Sky journey, I had no concept of how famous a high-tier could be in the Starry Sky, but now Iâm almost numb to it..."
"Your Highness, thatâs also because youâve operated well in the Starry Sky, with the support of your reputation.
Otherwise, if it were another high-tier who loved to kill or was unpredictable, aside from some journalists, no one would want to go near them.
Let alone come to welcome them every time."
The voice of Shang Ji sounded in her ear; after returning to this planet, she had reconnected to the network she set up in the Starry Sky, connecting to Shang Ji.
Even through the long Portal Giant Tree passage, the information within her territory had begun to communicate with this network.
She had even received a report about this, a result set up by her witch subordinates during her absence.
"Anyway, I donât plan on going out again. Those guys are just too tricky to handle, each one an old fox, and you can hardly squeeze much profit out of them.
Thereâs no sense of achievement..."
Her goal this time was some important planets within the Three Great Civilizations and some major civilizations and forces she passed by.
Even though she met many important people, since most of them had other dealings, she couldnât bypass the Three Great Civilizations and their internal officials for transactions.
As for the forces and civilizations outside the Three Great Civilizations, Bai Yi also couldnât conduct large-scale transactions to avoid suspicion.
"Rest assured, Your Highness. You donât need to personally attend to the matters from now on. The influence of your journey into the Starry Sky is already sufficient.
Your only upcoming schedule is visiting those fan club members, but thereâs no rush for that.
And you did gain a lot this time, didnât you?"
"Thatâs true. Indeed, I just need to portray myself as a benefactor... err, big sister.
With the resources I can provide, traveling through the Starry Sky always attracts those âprotagonists,â becoming a part of those protagonistâs halos that contribute to the Hostâs growth.
In just a month, Iâve encountered four different protagonists...
Heh, connecting with me greatly increases the chance theyâll come to the academy in the future."
Casually chatting with Shang Ji, the spaceshipâs hatch had already opened.
Bai Yi was familiar with the remaining process; she simply acknowledged the students below as a greeting, while the remaining journalists were directly given the cold shoulder.
This wasnât a press conference; she didnât need to waste her words.
In fact, if it werenât for creating a normal itinerary, she would have already chosen to use the Portal Giant Tree to teleport back, avoiding all this hassle.
She had more important things to do at this moment.
After bidding farewell to the students who welcomed her at the Star Port, Bai Yi no longer hid and directly teleported back to her giant tree in the academy.
Shang Ji, who had been chatting with her, was already waiting here.
"How is that âprotagonistâ?
I remember, he seems to be called Lunning? Howâs the Abnormal Object he has?"
Bai Yi asked immediately; the Avatar in her territory had already prepared the medium for upgrading and repairing that Abnormal Object a week ago.
It was only delayed until now because she was still in the Starry Sky and hadnât returned.
"Yes, and thereâs both good news and bad news.
The good news is, you donât need to repair it anymore. Just a few days ago, that Lunning found a witch, claiming the cross had changed.
Through the permissions you granted, we can already confirm that the Abnormal Object has fully exhibited its Strength."
"Repaired? Thatâs great, saves my medium."
Bai Yi was delighted, without a trace of regret that her prepared medium was no longer needed.
The mediums werenât only for repairing this one Abnormal Object; if not used for it, they could be used to enhance others.
"And the bad news?"
"The bad news is, the cross seems to have bound itself to Lunning, with effects similar to those Abnormal Objects you are currently Fusing within your territory, making it unusable by others.
However, because of this, Lunning has also gained his own Extraordinary Talent and is currently enrolled in an Extraordinary Class for study.
His progress is very rapid."
Hearing Shang Jiâs description, Bai Yi looked through the network records and read Lunningâs reports from this period.
After a long time, Bai Yi rubbed her chin, her eyes full of interest.
"Interesting...
Rapid growth is understandable, after all, he is a âprotagonist.â Even if not a combat-focused protagonist, growth wouldnât be slow.
But to bind with that Abnormal Object...
This must be the protagonistâs halo at work, otherwise, how could an Abnormal Object from who knows what era suddenly bind to a Starry Sky People years later, and one whoâs ordinary?
Letâs go, take me to see what exactly this Abnormal Object is."
