Bengtie: My death fueled their madness.

Chapter 373 The Cunning Old Fox

Seeing Danheng deep in thought, Himeko asked, "So, Danheng, do you want to stay?"

"Well, I won't go this time." Dan Heng hesitated for a moment, then gave up the idea of getting out of the car.

"Why?" Xingxin asked curiously.

"...For some personal reasons, I am not able to enter Luofu at will. Before you set off, I will compile some information about the Immortal Ship, which I hope will be of assistance."

"oh."

Sensing that Dan Heng was unwilling to elaborate, Xing didn't press further and instead looked at Qi Zhimu.

"Would you like to come with us?"

Qi Zhimu did not react.

"Do you know him?"

Still nothing. Looks like he's not paying attention.

"oioi! Jimo, snap out of it!"

"...Excuse me, what did you just say?" Qi Zhimu's thoughts were interrupted.

"We're asking if you want to come with us to Luofu."

"Well, it's too early to say..."

"Huh?" Several question marks popped up above Xing's head.

It's hard to say now? That's too ambiguous.

Seeing that Qi Zhimu still seemed somewhat absent-minded, Ji Zi judged that he might have suddenly thought of an important personal matter, so she steered the conversation back on track.

"Then this pioneering journey is entrusted to you, Walter. I've seen you've been eager to get started for a long time. Make sure you take good care of Xing and Little March."

"Don't worry," Walter nodded in a deep voice.

"Destination: Immortal Ship Luofu—Let's go!"

Although she was intercepted by the Star Core Hunters halfway, the girl was still eager to embark on a new journey.

After two jumps, the Star Train arrived at the gate of the Luofu Immortal Ship Realm.

Looking out the car window at the magnificent, futuristic spaceship in the distance, March 7 was filled with awe.

"Wow! This is the Immortal Ship Luofu? It looks even bigger than the Yari-VI!"

"For the people of the Immortal Ship, this ship is their planet."

Dan Heng glanced at the familiar starship, his gaze slightly complicated.

"The earth is an indispensable cradle for the survival and development of civilizations; however, some civilizations can transcend their childhood and pilot starships to roam the void..."

"The Immortal Ship Alliance is just like that; after all these years, this starship is still so magnificent..."

March 7th had never heard Danheng speak or make such an expression before, and tilted his head to the right.

"What's wrong with you? You look so nostalgic and lonely."

Seeing that he didn't speak, San Yueqi could only scratch his head and look away. He passed by Qi Zhimu on the way and saw that he was also staring at Luofu outside in a daze, which made him even more confused.

These two people have similar names, could they both be from the Immortal Boat?

However, I'll just casually think about March 7th.

Himeko connected to the communication frequency band of the current star system and called the Luofu Sky Ship Bureau.

"This is the Star Train. Repeat, this is the Star Train. I have arrived in the Celestial Ship airspace and am requesting landing permission for the ground... or perhaps I should say the deck."

A few seconds later, the intermittent signal successfully completed the connection, producing an unstable electrical sound.

"Welcome to...Luofu Airport...Starship Sea..."

"Please wait patiently for the shuttle to arrive... Please wait patiently for the shuttle to arrive... Please wait patiently for the shuttle to arrive..."

Himeko was not in a hurry and waited quietly.

Unexpectedly, after waiting for several minutes, I was repeatedly told to wait patiently for the connection.

In the end, even the repeating sounds stopped, and there was no sign of any guidance to stop.

Even though she understood the profound significance of the Immortal Ship Luofu, Ji Zi still frowned slightly.

If what Kafka said is true, how could that exploding star core have such a huge impact?

March 7th's little face was full of worry.

"The Star Core Hunter might not have lied to us; something really has happened in Luofu... A spaceship has arrived at an empty spaceport—that's how many horror movies start!"

"Don't overthink it," Dan Heng sighed.

Walter looked at Himeko, his expression becoming much more serious: "Is it still an AI signal?"

"Yes, it's still working... Ah, it's done!" Himeko changed her mind halfway through and played the conversation aloud.

"The Jade Realm Gate is opening. On behalf of the Immortal Ship Alliance: Luofu, I welcome our guests from afar. Please follow the signs and dock in an orderly manner."

The voice on the other end of the signal connection stopped again after that point.

Himeko looked up at the Jade Gate and found that it was already open.

Strange thing...

Glancing at Qi Zhimu's state, seeing that he seemed lost in thought, she gave up the idea of asking him if he wanted to get off the bus and travel together.

He then, like a patriarch, once again instructed the children to be careful in everything and asked Walter to take good care of them.

After completing the preparations, Walter and his two companions left the train and successfully landed in Luofu.

When the train stops and passengers temporarily disembark, the navigator needs to handle the relevant tasks accordingly.

Ji Zi excused herself to Qi Zhimu and Dan Heng, then returned to her office.

Not long after, Dan Heng also returned to the think tank.

In the huge observation carriage, only Qi Zhimu remained.

There were several reasons why he was distracted just now.

Firstly, the Luofu Immortal Ship, the flagship of the Immortal Ship Alliance, is a well-known name, having been heard of countless times in many worlds.

However, this was his first time here.

But for some reason, seeing that jade gate evoked a strange feeling.

It wasn't that I felt the Jade Gate was familiar because I'd seen it so many times online, but rather that I didn't know how to describe the feeling.

Secondly...

Qi Zhimu took out his phone and suddenly found a new person in his friends list. This person had even sent him a message.

[SilverFinger: I have work, want to take the job?]

[Silver Finger: Hey, hey, hey, reply to this message as soon as you see it!]

[Silverfinger: Dude, you're a mercenary, how come you haven't checked your phone in so long? Can't you be a little more professional?]

…It was like they were chasing a debtor.

[Super-Speed Harp Demon: I don't recall having anyone like you on my employer list, right, Star Core Hunter's little hacker?]

[SilverFinger: Oh ho, you actually recognized me. Not bad.]

[Super-fast Qin Demon: Wow, Zhende Poetry Mud Duck?!]

Silverfinger: ...Damn, he tricked me, you cunning old fox.

[Super-Speed Qin Master: I'm busy, I don't have time to chat with you. Although your bounty is tempting, let's keep to ourselves.]

[SilverFinger: Didn't I tell you? I have work to do and I need you to do it. Be nicer to your employer, you bastard!]

[Super-Speed Qin Demon: Oh, so it really is the esteemed client. Please speak, but let me make it clear beforehand that I have the right to refuse your request after hearing it.]

[Silverfinger: I understand your rules. 50 million credits. During your time in Luofu, secretly assist the passengers of the Star Train as needed.]

Qi Zhimu narrowed his eyes and a cold smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

[Super-Speed Qin Master: I refuse!]

[Silver Finger: ???]

[Silver Finger: One Hundred Million!]

[Super-Speed Harp Demon: No way, unless you reveal your true purpose for seeking me out. I don't want to be used as a pawn by you Star Core Hunters.]

Inside the spaceship hidden in the dark side of the stars, Silver Wolf was furious.

Who exactly is this guy? How come he can drive even better than her?

Putting aside the fact that she was being deceived, the fact that she could see through the lie just by looking at the words...

Silver Wolf could only turn his gaze to Kafka and let her make the decision.

"...Tell him the truth."

Are you sure?
