Chapter 386: Chapter 4 Revenge

As the first person he had reincarnated in Green Field through his hands, Li Yu was still very concerned about Niu Xiangui’s situation.

However, after holding the Heroic Spirit Summoning Ceremony that evening, the weekend followed immediately, and Li Yu couldn’t go over to Bratis.

Moreover, he had been busy during this period, and Li Yu didn’t want to deal with work-related matters on Saturday and Sunday.

He found an American TV series and started binge-watching on the couch until he felt that the living room TV was a bit small.

So, he opened JD.com, placed an order, and bought an 85-inch Sony high-refresh-rate TV, which could be used for watching movies and playing games.

Early on Sunday, the TV was delivered.

The knocking by the delivery woke up Wang Guowei, who had played games until the early morning in the neighboring room, rubbing his sleepy eyes as he peeked out.

On seeing that big-screen TV in the living room, his eyes went wide.

After Li Yu turned on the TV to check and confirmed the screen was good and signed for it, Wang Guowei, unconcerned about the cold, ran out from his room, clad in shorts, circling the new TV and muttering.

"Wow, Brother Li, an 85 x 90k, it must be around fifteen thousand now, and you just went ahead and bought it."

"Business at the company has been pretty good recently, just signed a big contract, so I bought a TV to treat myself," Li Yu said, "and you’ve helped me a lot before too, introducing Dog Brother to me and designing my website. You can also use this new TV to play games whenever you want."

"That’s amazing, too cool, Brother Li, from now on, you are my brother from another mother!" Wang Guowei gave a thumbs up before he giggled and added, "Then I won’t be polite; I’ve wanted to play 2077 on a 4K screen for a long time."

The two didn’t wait for the installation technician to come and lifted the TV onto the TV cabinet themselves.

Wang Guowei couldn’t wait and moved his gaming laptop from the bedroom to the new TV and booted up Steam.

Li Yu watched him play as a cyber psycho in Night City, fiercely battling the Anti-Terror Squad, when he received a message from Zhang Yanlin.

Zhang Yanlin asked if Li Yu wanted to go shopping with her, as their office needed a new coffee maker, and she had her eye on a De’Longhi. There was a sale at the mall, and they could also pick up a new robotic vacuum cleaner.

Li Yu thought for a moment and typed—See you at the mall.

About an hour later, the two met outside the mall near Zhang Yanlin’s home.

It was almost deep autumn by then, and the temperature had dropped. Zhang Yanlin wore a beige cinched waistcoat over a high-necked black sweater.

She waved at Li Yu from afar, and he quickened his pace when he saw her.

After meeting, Zhang Yanlin handed Li Yu a cup of milk tea, "This is for you, no extra sugar added."

Li Yu didn’t decline and took the milk tea, saying, "Then I’ll treat you to lunch."

"Yay, a treat from the boss; I can’t think of a reason to refuse."

"You asked me out at this time; you must have had the idea to sponge a meal off me from early morning."

"Don’t think of me as so scheming; I actually wanted to ask about Niu Xiangui’s situation. Has his reincarnation gone smoothly? After all, I have been doing a background check on him during this time; I feel I know him better than a boyfriend, so I’m quite concerned about him."

"Hmm, the ceremony went without a hitch, and he has successfully appeared on the Bratis Continent, though as a Half-Beast."

"A Half-Beast programmer? Hmm... It seems a bit hard to imagine."

"He is a lot more robust than before; I hope he can spend some time and effort maintaining his current physique in the future."

"So, have you thought about what you want him to do now?"

"Hmm, I set up an upgrade system over there, planning to have him start in maintenance after he graduates from language school, which actually matches his major," Li Yu said. After noticing Zhang Yanlin’s complicated expression, he asked, "What’s wrong?"

"I just didn’t expect that in just a few months you had accomplished so much over there. Besides, discussing these things with you now still feels somewhat surreal."

"All these matters about reincarnation, otherworldly adventures, and missionary work are just too incredible... Of course, the most surprising thing to me is still you. We were colleagues for a year before this, and I never detected anything unusual about you.

"Back then, I just thought you were a decent person, but your decency was within the normal human range."

"The past few months have indeed been a huge turning point in my life," Li Yu admitted. "Had I not experienced it myself, I wouldn’t have thought a job could bring such a big change."

"So, what are your plans for the future?" Zhang Yanlin asked again.

"For now, just to work hard and save some money. Plus, I really like the content of this job and the pay isn’t bad either. I should be doing it for a while."

"Then I’ll help you."

"Hmm?"

"Don’t misunderstand; the benefits of this job are really good, and the work is quite easy," Zhang Yanlin said. "So I plan on continuing with it as well."

"Hmm."

"Let’s go shopping, pick a coffee machine you like."

"Haven’t you already done your homework?"

"Ah, yeah, but you are the boss, after all."

......

After resting for two days, Li Yu returned to Green Field, and it had been eight days since Niu Xiangui had last seen him.

However, before Li Yu could visit the territory of the Double Rest Sect, he heard two new pieces of news from Miss Rabbit, both related to the Silver Moon Church.

It had been over two months since the massacre at Duolin City, and the Silver Moon Church had finally selected seven new High Priests.

As expected, under the pressure of numerous noble families from the west, all seven newly chosen candidates were opponents of the militarization of the church, and the day after their election, they issued a joint declaration.

They emphasized that the Silver Moon Church would neither have nor form any military forces in the future.

This joint declaration received unanimous praise from the nobles of the west, but three days later, a group of unidentified assailants attacked Red Tower City.

Red Tower City had previously suffered a rat plague, resulting in severe losses and had not fully recovered. The attackers took advantage of the situation.

They infiltrated the city and launched a direct assault on the City Lord Mansion, quickly seizing control.

Kamzi of the Treles Family, the Family Head, was captured by them.

It was said that Kamzi had inquired how much money they wanted and had even expressed willingness to gather the money, but the attackers paid no heed and simply killed Kamzi, along with his three sons, two daughters, and a son-in-law.

Except for Kamzi’s infant grandson, almost all key members of the Treles Family were wiped out.

When the steward of the mansion demanded to know why they had taken such drastic action, the attackers simply uttered two words.

—Vengeance!
