Chapter 202: The Story in the Dark (Update 3)

Hearing Lin Zhen's words, Su Mingyue raised her little face in Lin Zhen's arms: "What nonsense are you talking about? How can my stargazing telescope be repaired after it's broken?"

Su Mingyue's stargazing mirror is a top-grade star tool, its value far exceeds any treasure Lin Zhen has ever seen. This kind of auxiliary top-grade star tool with special functions is worth even more than ordinary top-grade star tools. Even top-grade armor may not be as valuable as a stargazing mirror, let alone weapons.

It is precisely because of its quality and the powerful star power contained within it that it can block the fatal blow when the star strike comes.

However, the Star Observing Mirror is not a true defensive star weapon, so it was damaged by the star strike.

Lin Zhen did not answer Su Mingyue's question, but gently stroked her cheek to her earlobe.

Her ears are crystal clear, giving people an almost transparent feeling.

Su Mingyue's face flushed as she tucked her black hair behind her ears, but she still let Lin Zhen hold her.

"Yue'er, why do you want to be contaminated by Star Strike?" Lin Zhen asked.

"I don't want you to be hurt by that thing." Su Mingyue's answer was simple, but it pierced the heart.

"Thanks to you for having the stargazing telescope, otherwise you would have done something very stupid this time. Do you know that the stargazing telescope can withstand star strikes?" Lin Zhen asked again.

Su Mingyue shook her head slightly: "I don't know. If I knew, I would take off the stargazing mirror and leave it here, because I know you will come to find me."

When Lin Zhen heard this, his heart suddenly throbbed with pain, and he couldn't help but said viciously: "What nonsense are you talking about? No matter how good the stargazing mirror is, it is just a dead object. How can it be compared with a human? I won't allow you to care about yourself like this in the future."

Hearing this, Su Mingyue's long eyelashes drooped slightly, covering her beautiful peach blossom eyes, just like the owner's mood at the moment.

"I don't know what else I can do. Should I go back to the church? The true God doesn't care about us believers. I don't know if I should continue to be a saint. It would be nice if I can do something."

"So what if there is no real God? You are still a person, and you still have a family."

Unexpectedly, Su Mingyue shook her head slightly: "I don't have a home. My parents passed away when I was very young. I grew up in the church. Before I was eighteen, I knew no more than ten people whose names I could call out. There were only my master, my senior sister, and a few clergymen in the church. After I came to the training camp, Tang Yu talked to me, and I saw his name, and then I remembered him."

Lin Zhen opened his mouth but said nothing.

What kind of life did Su Mingyue lead? She was trained as a saint since she was young. Every day, she learned everything a saint should do under the guidance of her master and clergy. She also had to practice martial arts. Except for these people in the church, she couldn't even call out the names of the others.

Eighteen years old, that means she only got to know so many people after she went to the God General Training Camp, including other people from the Capital Base City.

Lin Zhen forced a smile and put his arm around Su Mingyue's shoulders: "No wonder you are so smart, but sometimes you act like a fool. From now on, you won't do that anymore, because you still have me. No matter what you do in the future, you must think about protecting yourself first."

"Yeah." Su Mingyue nodded slightly, her delicate head resting lightly on Lin Zhen's shoulder, but her big eyes blinked, as if she was thinking about something.

Seeing that Su Mingyue finally stopped crying, Lin Zhen's heart gradually calmed down.

His fingers gently wiped away the tear marks on Su Mingyue's fair and pretty face. Her skin was incredibly good, as smooth as cream. Even with Lin Zhen's eyesight, he couldn't even see her pores even though they were so close.

Su Mingyue felt a little uncomfortable being touched. She raised her little hand and gently grasped Lin Zhen's fingers, looking up at him: "Lin Zhen, do you really think I'm stupid?"

Lin Zhen smiled and pinched her straight little nose: "Very stupid."

Su Mingyue seemed a little unconvinced, and blinked at Lin Zhen: "When I was with you, I asked you to pretend to be my boyfriend, and you even hugged me at that time. Do you know why I did that?"

Lin Zhen thought for a moment: "Temporarily avoid being entangled by others."

Su Mingyue's eyes showed a rare hint of unhappiness: "No, it's because I really think you are good."

"Ah!" The simple and straightforward tone, without any embellishment or concealment, hit Lin Zhen's heart hard.

"Let me ask you again, when I touched the Star Strike, Yue Feng wanted to touch my hand, but I didn't let him touch it. Do you know why?" Su Mingyue continued to ask Lin Zhen.

Lin Zhen thought about it this time: "You hate him."

Unexpectedly, Su Mingyue shook her head again: "I don't just hate him. Apart from my senior sister and I sometimes hold hands, I don't like being touched by anyone."

"Then I..." Lin Zhen spoke.

"Only for you, all for you." Su Mingyue said this with confidence.

Lin Zhen knew Su Mingyue's personality very well. She was never good at telling jokes, and she never lied. Especially at this moment, there was no need to have even the slightest doubt. This was what she was thinking.

"Yue'er..." Lin Zhen's voice was a little hoarse.

Unexpectedly, Su Mingyue suddenly smiled, like a hundred flowers blooming, her eyebrows curved, her beautiful peach blossom eyes narrowed, and dimples appeared on her fair face: "See, you can't answer the questions I ask you correctly, so I'm not stupid, you are."

Lin Zhen suddenly realized that Su Mingyue didn't like him calling her stupid.

But no matter how hard she tried to prove it, she was still a little fool and didn't understand that it was just a nickname.

Looking at Su Mingyue laughing at himself for being stupid, Lin Zhen felt that she was like a little fox who had stolen the chicken.

This appearance is so beautiful that even a saint would be tempted by it.

Lin Zhen couldn't help but breathe heavily. He gently lifted Su Mingyue's chin and said, "Yue'er, how can you be so beautiful?"

Su Mingyue blinked, "I don't know either. Many people say that, but I like to hear you say it."

Lin Zhen slowly approached, and their breath sprayed on each other's faces.

"Yue'er, I want to eat you."

"ah!"

Su Mingyue exclaimed, looked down at her slender arms, and looked at Lin Zhen with a hint of fear in her eyes. She hesitated for a long time: "You must be hungry. When the rain stops, I will make you something delicious. I...I."

Lin Zhen rolled her eyes. Being too naive might not necessarily be a good thing. No one had ever said such words to her, nor had they ever touched upon similar topics. She had no idea what "eat you" meant.

Lin Zhen didn't want to desecrate his girlfriend who was as pure as a blank sheet of paper, so he could only lower his requirements: "Yue'er, I want to hold you while sleeping. Let's find a place."

Su Mingyue's face suddenly became hot. Although she didn't know a lot of things, she was also a very smart woman. Otherwise, how could she have concealed the truth from Yue Feng? Lin Zhen's eyes made her feel a little dangerous, but she couldn't bear to refuse directly: "But. It's raining so hard, there's nowhere to go."

"Go to my little nest. I used to sleep there."

"There's water all over there." Su Mingyue finally found a reason to refuse.

Lin Zhen picked up the girl by the waist in a princess hug and came to the nest. With the pull of gravity, the accumulated water in the nest was immediately absorbed and thrown into the river. Then he carried Su Mingyue into the nest.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Su Mingyue was stunned and grabbed Lin Zhen's chest: "But it's still raining up there."

Swish! The liquid metal turned into a thin, almost transparent layer, covering the nest like a small house.

Su Mingyue looked up and nervously made an excuse: "But it's so dark, I'm afraid of the dark."

As soon as Lin Zhen opened his eyes, the power of light flickered in his eyes, and the dimples lit up.

"Your eyes are scary."

The light immediately shifted to the top of the head.

“That’s scary too.”

Under the control of spiritual power, the power of light floated to the roof of the cabin, like a soft little light.

Su Mingyue finally ran out of words. She blinked her big eyes twice, then suddenly threw herself into Lin Zhen's arms, wrapped her arms around Lin Zhen's neck, twisted her body gently, and said to Lin Zhen in a coquettish tone she had never used before: "Lin Zhen, please don't bully your Yue'er, okay? Yue'er will be yours sooner or later, but it really can't be done now. A saint must be pure. I haven't made up my mind yet. Please..."

In the stormy night, in the warm little house, with the soft lights and the beauty twisting in his arms, Lin Zhen almost couldn't control himself even if he was reborn. He suppressed the fire rising in his stomach and hugged Su Mingyue to prevent her from moving. Then he said in a depressed tone, "Is it not allowed to kiss or touch?"

Su Mingyue hesitated. She had never been involved in anything like this before, so she was instinctively a little scared. After thinking for a while, she did not answer Lin Zhen's question, but said sullenly, "My clothes are too wet. It's uncomfortable to hold them. I need to change my clothes."

"Then I'll go outside."

"It's raining so hard outside, don't go." Su Mingyue couldn't bear to see Lin Zhen get wet in the rain.

Lin Zhen's eyes suddenly lit up and he sat down without moving.

Su Mingyue glanced at Lin Zhen and said, "I think you will peek."

"Promise not to watch."

"I don't believe it." Su Mingyue's decisive tone directly exposed Lin Zhen.

"What should I do? I'd better go outside."

"You turned out the light."

Lin Zhen immediately withdrew the brilliant power, and the room became dark.

"It still won't work. There's lightning outside. You'll still see it when it flashes. Just cover the house with leaves."

Lin Zhen raised his hand, and gravity was released. Several huge petals and leaves flew over and covered the hut.

At this time, Su Mingyue raised her hand, and her hand also shone with light. This shining star crystal was twin, and not only Lin Zhen could use it, but she could too.

The beauty under the light was breathtakingly beautiful. Su Mingyue said to Lin Zhen with a flushed face, "Lin Zhen, as long as you don't look, I will give you some rewards. If you create a little light to peek at me changing clothes, I promise that I will definitely ignore you for a long, long time."

Lin Zhen nodded immediately, "There is absolutely no light at all."

The light went out and there was no movement for a long while. After a long while, Su Mingyue suddenly waved her hand in front of Lin Zhen's eyes by feeling, and then quietly turned on a little light. Seeing that Lin Zhen's eyes seemed to have no focus and were still in the dark, she felt relieved to turn off the light so that no one could see anything in the dark.

She still believed that Lin Zhen would not create light, so she felt relieved and began to slowly take off her wet priest robe.

I have to go out for a while and don't want everyone to wait anxiously, so I will release the third update in advance. This is the first chapter of today's extra chapters. I will update more for everyone's monthly votes. The next chapter should be a little later.
