Chapter 583 The Fulmin Family Sisters!
Mina's gaze passed through the huge arched porthole and landed on a desolate, dark star field in the distance, her bright eyes widening slightly.
"what?"
The next moment, Mina walked around the control panel, pressed her face against the porthole, and pointed outside: "Look, there... isn't there someone over there?"
Old helmsman Uncle Huo looked in the direction she was pointing, and the smile on his face froze before he could even wipe it off.
Against the backdrop of a distant sea of stars, a tiny human figure floats silently, carried by gravitational turbulence.
Judging from his posture, he was clearly seriously injured and had completely lost consciousness.
"Hmm...it seems so? And...it seems like he's injured."
Uncle Huo nodded and replied haltingly.
"Oh dear! Uncle Huo, what are we waiting for! Quickly, take the boat over there to rescue them!"
Upon hearing this, Mina immediately turned around and urged him urgently.
However, all she received in response was silence from the bridge.
The helmsmen, who had been all smiles just moments before, now all looked troubled, their eyes darting around, and none of them dared to speak.
"What's wrong?"
Mina sensed something was wrong. Her face darkened, and with a touch of a young lady's authority, she demanded, "Didn't you hear me? I said we're going to rescue people!"
Uncle Ho's lips twitched, but he finally forced himself to speak: "Miss Mina, have you forgotten the merchant guild's ironclad rules?"
"When traveling as a merchant, one is not involved in cause and effect, especially with these drifters of unknown origin. We...we cannot save them."
When he said this, Uncle Huo's expression still carried a hint of grief.
"Can't be saved? Why?"
Mina frowned, utterly puzzled: "What's wrong with rescuing someone on such a big ship like ours?"
"Oh...Miss, you don't know this."
Uncle Huo sighed, his eyes dimming, his voice filled with sorrow: "Just ten days ago, the Dawn of the Seventh Route rescued a guy who claimed to be a scavenger because he was soft-hearted, but it turned out to be bait!"
He paused, his fist clenching involuntarily, veins bulging on the back of his hand: "That was a trap set by those damned Starsea Hunters of the Withered Leaf Court!"
"The Dawn was hijacked, and more than 300 guards and crew members are still missing!"
Upon hearing the words "Kurei-tei," the atmosphere on the bridge instantly turned even colder.
A hint of fear even appeared on the faces of several young helmsmen.
Mina was stunned for a moment, then put her hands on her hips with a speechless look, looking at everyone with an expression that said, "Are you guys stupid?"
"Uncle Huo, are you confused? What are the specifications of the Dawn? And what are the specifications of our [Golden Olive]?"
She pointed to a guard standing not far behind her, like a statue, in the shadows, wearing dark gold full armor, his face shrouded in a helmet.
"We have Lord Puxi on our ship, a level 149 Temple Fortress!"
"Don't even mention a mere withered leaf garden; even if their hunter inspector came, he'd have to obediently step aside!"
"and……"
Mina pointed out the porthole again: "Look closely for yourselves, that person is wearing the standard Ashmerkrin Star Ranger cloak!"
"Those are Star Rangers! Heroes who maintain order in the star system! How could they possibly be bait for Star Hunters?"
Upon hearing this, Uncle Huo and the helmsmen exchanged glances, their faces showing hesitation.
The reputation of Starsea Rangers is truly a golden brand in the entire Starfall Divine Realm.
But the bloody lesson of the Dawn is right before our eyes. That ironclad rule was bought with the lives of countless comrades, and no one dares to easily transgress it.
"Miss……"
Uncle Huo spoke again, his tone pleading: "This is a serious matter, perhaps... we should consult Miss first? Let her make the decision."
"Hmph, coward."
Mina pouted in dissatisfaction, but still accepted the suggestion.
She also knew that the one who truly held the power on this ship was always her older sister.
"Hurry, I want to tell my sister myself!"
Mina walked to the control panel, skillfully accessed the ship's internal communication system, and quickly tapped a few times on the screen.
Soon, a clear holographic projection appeared in the center of the bridge.
Amidst the interplay of light and shadow, a tall and slender figure slowly emerges.
She wore a well-tailored black dress, her long golden hair cascading down her shoulders like a waterfall, and her stunningly beautiful face remained expressionless.
Those eyes, deeper than the starry sea, simply gazed at Mina, bringing an invisible sense of oppression.
Evelyn Furmyn.
"Mina."
She parted her thin lips slightly and said in a cool voice, "You should know that I don't want to be bothered by trivial matters during the voyage."
"Sister! I didn't do it on purpose!"
"I really do have something to tell you!"
When Mina saw her, she immediately acted like a kitten that had found a protector, speaking softly and coquettishly.
Seeing this, Evelyn's originally cold expression softened slightly, replaced by a hint of doting.
Seeing my sister's expression.
Mina smiled slightly, knowing that her coquettishness had worked.
Then, he quickly ran to the projector, pointed out the porthole, and complained, "You need to do something about Uncle Huo and the others! There's a dying Star Ranger outside, and they're just standing by and watching him die!"
Upon hearing this, Evelyn did not immediately look out the window, but instead glanced indifferently at Uncle Huo, whose face had turned pale.
That look made the old captain, who had been navigating the starry sea for over a hundred years, break out in a cold sweat.
"Oh?"
Evelyn then slowly turned her head, her gaze following the direction Mina was pointing, and landed on the figure floating in the darkness.
At first, when she saw the white ranger's cloak that still stood out under the starlight, her expression didn't change much. The ironclad rules of the merchant guild couldn't be broken by her sister's coquettishness.
However, when the bridge control console followed her will and zoomed in on the external holographic image, clearly projecting the face of the floating figure onto the light screen, Evelyn's expression showed a slight ripple.
"It's him?"
Mina immediately noticed the surprise on her sister's face and quickly leaned closer to ask, "Sister, do you know him?"
"Lorian Scarlet."
"One of the most outstanding Watchers of Ashmerktin's generation, and a candidate for Starhunter."
Upon hearing this, the entire bridge fell silent.
Uncle Huo and the helmsmen looked at each other, their faces filled with shock.
