"The life of an angel must be so boring."
On the training grounds of the Heavenly Court of Merlo, swords flashed, and graceful figures leaped and fell, their skirts billowing in the air.
Li Yao leaned lazily against the corner of the venue, his hands behind his head and his legs crossed.
He sighed dramatically, but his gaze remained fixed on the pleasing scenery before him, and a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips.
Anyone could tell that there wasn't a hint of disdain in his words; he was clearly secretly pleased.
A gentle breeze blew by, bringing with it a refreshing fragrance.
Li Yao took a deep breath and squinted his eyes contentedly.
If it weren't for that dump truck that knocked him into this super-god universe a hundred years ago, where would he be living such a blissful life?
In this life, he was raised by two powerful figures, Keisha and Hexi, and lived in Tiancheng from a young age. He was not only the only male angel there, but also the last disciple of the Heavenly King Hexi.
In addition to possessing the genes of a new generation of male angels, it also has a quantum engine of mysterious origin.
With the aid of this quantum engine, he became the most brilliant new star in the scientific research community of the Angel Civilization.
However, this engine involves certain characteristics of quantum mechanics. Although it can help him realize many of his whimsical ideas, it will often produce some "surprises," like opening a blind box, with all sorts of different effects.
Just as there is "Schrödinger's Cat" on Earth, there are "Li Yao Brand Potion" and "Li Yao Brand Weapon" in Tiancheng, and so on.
Over the years, he has died quite a few times due to these unexpected situations.
Li Yao shook his head, too lazy to think about it anymore, and turned his attention back to the scenery in front of him.
I just finished a huge project that lasted two and a half years, so now it's time to relax.
A balance between work and rest is the right approach.
Just as Li Yao was engrossed in watching, a pair of slender, jade-like hands suddenly reached out silently from behind him and gently covered his eyes.
Immediately afterwards, a deliberately lowered voice, with a touch of magnetic allure, rang in his ear:
"Guess who I am? If you guess right... there's a reward!"
The voice was quite similar to Yan's languid and alluring tone, but Li Yao only paused for a moment before unceremoniously slapping away the hand covering his eyes.
"Sister Zhui, stop fooling around."
His technique was practiced, and his tone carried a hint of helpless intimacy, clearly indicating that this wasn't the first time he'd done this.
Angel Chase chuckled and walked around to stand in front of Li Yao.
She was clad in silver armor, and her neat, slicked-back golden hair added a touch of sharpness to her exquisite features.
"It's boring. It was so much fun when we were kids. You always had to guess for ages."
Angel Chase pursed her lips, then sat down next to Li Yao, mimicking his gaze at the training ground, a smile playing on her lips.
Li Yao turned to look at her and asked, "Sister Zhui, how did the mission go?"
The angel casually replied, "Yeah, we just wiped out a bunch of clueless space pirates. It wasn't difficult at all."
Then, her gaze returned to Li Yao's face, with a hint of mischief:
"You're the one watching so intently! Should I call a couple of your girlfriends over so you can get a closer look?"
"Ahem!"
Li Yao coughed twice and quickly said, "Sister Zhui, let's talk about the reward you mentioned earlier, shall we?"
Upon hearing this, Angel Chase raised an eyebrow and beckoned to Li Yao with her finger:
"A reward? Okay. I heard you've advanced to the third-generation angel? Come on, play a few rounds with me and let me see how much you've improved."
Li Yao was speechless: Well, he shouldn't have had any normal expectations of this battle maniac.
He quickly waved his hand, pretending to be weak and frail:
"No way, Sister Zhui, you know me. I'm just a scholar who can't even kill a chicken. I'm good at using my brain, but I'm really not cut out for fighting."
Upon hearing this, Angel Chase rolled her eyes at him and snorted in annoyance:
"Listen to this! A guy who became a third-generation angel at the age of one hundred, and he's here saying he's weak as a chicken? Is that what angelic language you're talking about?"
As someone who's been through it all, she naturally knows it all too well.
Although the civilization provides all the resources for the advancement of active angels, it is not so easy to advance to the third generation of angels.
Not only do you need to master the corresponding knowledge and skills, but you also need to accumulate enough contribution points and achievements, pass a bunch of crazy tests, and finally get the Queen's personal approval.
Even so, it would take thousands of years to even begin to imagine it.
Among the current three generations of angels, apart from Zhi Xin, who is a genius, who else, including her, Yan Jie, Leng, and Mo Yi, didn't go through this ordeal?
But this guy in front of me... he's a monster, even more outrageous than his senior sister Zhixin!
He was promoted to a third-generation angel at the age of one hundred.
Even when she was a hundred years old, she was still being disciplined every few days in the recruit training camp.
Thinking of this, Angel Chase felt a tightness in her chest. Comparing people only makes Chase angrier.
Seeing that her gaze was off, Li Yao quickly changed the subject: "Hey, Sister Zhui, did Sister Yan come back with you this time?"
When the topic turned to business, Angel Chase nodded, temporarily letting him off the hook: "Yeah, I'm back. But Sister Yan didn't come; she went straight to Skyblade Seven."
Li Yao understood immediately.
The major project he just finished was to make some "minor" upgrades and modifications to Angel Yan's Skyblade No. 7. Now that she's back, he naturally wants to check on the results as soon as possible.
"Hopefully, nothing unexpected will happen this time."
He muttered something under his breath, feeling inexplicably uneasy.
I hope my unreliable quantum engine doesn't cause any more bizarre problems at this critical juncture.
Although he had previously assured Angel Yan that he would give her a big surprise.
"Hmm? What kind of weird thing is this?" Angel Chase asked curiously.
"It's nothing."
Li Yao composed himself and asked another question that concerned him: "What about Morgana?"
As far as he knew, Angel Yan's most important task over the past thousand years had been to search for Morgana's whereabouts in the vast universe.
Upon hearing this, the angel shook his head and said:
"There's no definite news yet. However, during her recent trip, Sister Yan discovered that the Taotie civilization in the Styx Galaxy has been exhibiting unusual activity lately, which is somewhat suspicious."
Li Yao's eyes flickered slightly. Calculating the time, there was less than a year left before the plot officially began.
Next, the era of the Blue Star's grand stage is about to begin.
Civilizations such as Taotie, Lieyang, angels, and demons will appear one after another.
How could he miss such a memorable moment?
What's more, he still has a "newbie gift pack" on Earth that's a hundred years late and he hasn't claimed it yet.
Moreover, in order to prepare for the calamity that was almost inevitable in the future, he had made a lot of preparations over the years, and this time, the modified Angel Yan's Heavenly Blade No. 7 was one of them.
Even so, he remained on edge, because the number of enemies was simply too great, and the variables were numerous.
After all, from the moment he transmigrated here, this world was no longer an anime for him, but a real world.
As for the original storyline? That's just a reference guide at best.
If you blindly believe in the plot, you won't even know how you ended up dying, let alone protect the people you want to protect.
"Isn't the Taotie side planning some kind of thousand-year conquest? I think at this time..."
"Whoosh—buzz—!"
Before he could finish speaking, a sharp, piercing alarm suddenly blared, abruptly cutting off the words that the angel had already uttered.
