Star Dome Railway: Kevin's Pioneering Journey

"Thank you, Kevin, for lending me your weapon. It is really useful, but it is better to be down to earth."

"Also, the feeling this weapon gives me in reality is somewhat different from that in the simulated universe. I always feel like I become bloated after picking it up. The more I use it, the more I feel like I am floating. I can't control it anymore, and if I use it again, it will become like a floating star..."

Kevin nodded, took the Heavenly Fire Sacred Judgment with some doubts, and held it tightly in his hand, but there was no strange feeling? Swelling, even more impossible.

Could it be the strange reaction of the Star and the Holy Judge of Skyfire? Just like the inexplicable reaction of Walter and the Core of the Law of the Sky...

Forget it, Kevin didn’t think any more about it. He put away the Holy Judge of Heavenly Fire and decided to talk about the real thing. He raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

Snapped--

The transparent space barrier enveloped everyone, and the surrounding noise instantly quieted down, isolating the sounds inside and outside, and automatically covering up some things.

"Is there anything you need to be so cautious about?"

San Yueqi guessed the function of this thing and scratched his head in confusion.

Kevin didn't answer, but looked at everyone and asked seriously.

"What do you think of this Miss Tingyun?"

San Yueqi stroked his chin and carefully recalled his previous conversation with Tingyun and her every move.

"There's nothing strange about what Miss Tingyun said, right? It's just that I feel that her pace of doing things is too fast, and a woman like me who is as fast as the wind can hardly adapt to it."

Xing nodded and followed suit to express her own opinion.

"Although Tingyun is a fox man, he also fits my fantasy of a fox baby. He is delicate, charming, and very cunning. He always tests us inadvertently..."

Walter on the side took over the conversation.

"She can't be called cunning. She always considers herself first."

"It is wise to be on guard when encountering suspicious persons with unknown identities. As for the subsequent haste, it can only be said that she was afraid of taking responsibility and wanted to pass our trouble on to her superiors as soon as possible. This is my opinion, but..."

Walter's tone paused.

"Although I didn't investigate her out of politeness, I always felt something was wrong. However, as a ferryman, her hints seemed normal. Hmm... maybe I was overthinking..."

"No, you didn't think much about it..."

Kevin said lightly, and he raised his hand, and a ball of light emitting green and yellow light appeared in his hand.

Walter's eyes widened and he analyzed it instantly. The next moment, he came up with some answers.

“Is it related to consciousness?”

Kevin nodded, handed over the ball of light and explained.

"On the way, I felt her probing, but at the same time, I was also slightly probing her and analyzing her. In order to do it quietly and avoid her attention, I reduced my contact with her and deliberate conversations."

"I copied this from the mass inside her body. It only has some of the original's characteristics. The mass inside her body was so weak that it was unobservable. What you see in front of you is the result of my magnification."

"But... I don't know if it's really weak or she's hiding it on purpose. I didn't detect her consciousness. She's extremely cautious to begin with. If her movements are more obvious, she might be discovered. And I can also feel that she's very sensitive in this regard."

Walter held the ball of light and felt it for a moment. Apart from the characteristics and weak Honkai energy, he didn't feel anything else, so Xing Yao walked over to take a look.

After thinking for a moment, Walter speculated.

"Could it be just something strange that we haven't seen before?"

Kevin shook his head and answered seriously.

"If that's the case, I don't have to be so rigorous, because in its prototype, I feel the breath of destruction..."

Because of the blessing mark on his chest and many other factors, Kevin would never mistake the breath of destruction. As for whether the other party could sense the blessing mark on his body, he felt that it should be no problem to hide it with the black substance covering it.

"destroy?!"

The three of them exclaimed in surprise, there is nothing good that can be related to destruction.

Kevin waved his hand, and the yellow-green light ball in Xing's hand flew back into his hand.

Kevin looked at it and said lightly.

"Based on some of the characteristics of this thing, combined with the aura of destruction and her performance, I have three inferences."

"First, Tingyun was being targeted by someone related to the destruction without knowing it. That thing might have the effect of surveillance and positioning."

"Second, this thing is related to consciousness. It is gradually affecting Tingyun. To be more serious, it may be said that it has already controlled Tingyun's thoughts."

"Third, and the most serious one, is that the person standing in front of us is not Tingyun, or there is no such person as Tingyun. However, this is basically difficult to achieve. Fabricating an identity out of thin air is full of loopholes, so we can only use a more secure method - substitution."

"I have tried to analyze her body, but I didn't find anything strange. Maybe I don't know enough about the fox people's bodies, but I can't rule out this inference."

San Yueqi, who was standing by, covered his mouth and said in disbelief and surprise.

"Is it really that outrageous? I think Miss Tingyun is very normal."

Kevin half leaned back in his chair and said calmly.

"We must be prepared for all bad things, and I'm not just making random guesses. Do you remember the information I captured earlier?"

San Yueqi scratched her head and started to recall the past, but Xing beside her quickly brought it up.

"I remember you mentioned it when you first landed, Kevin."

Kevin nodded and said calmly.

"Yes, I had my suspicions at the time. Kafka, she did have a motive to lead us to the key person. Elio, who is known as the 'slave of fate', might have revealed some information to her."

"I was also thinking before, why do we have to come to the Immortal Boat to stop the crisis of the star core? Logically speaking, the size of a star core is not difficult for the Immortal Boat itself to solve."

“But when I saw the aura of destruction and the demonic body, I finally came to the conclusion that the Immortal Boat’s crisis is not only the obvious external threat from the star core, but also the internal troubles surging undercurrents.”

"So, no matter what the situation is with Tingyun, whether she is innocent or she is plotting something, it is a fact that she has some connection with destruction. We need to be vigilant against her, but we also need to be careful not to be too obvious, or she will see through us and become uncontrollable."

"Remember, we are still in the speculation stage. Don't act rashly without official approval and solid evidence. We are new here, and the reasons behind this are unknown. Tingyun's current behavior is relatively normal, so we have to wait and see what happens."

Walter and Xing nodded, indicating that there was no problem. It was just outrageous that they encountered such explosive information just after arriving. They just had to avoid causing any trouble and being wanted again.

At this time, March 7 scratched his head and suddenly mentioned.

"To be honest, you may be able to act calm in front of Miss Tingyun, but I... you also know that I am not good at talking and I don't have that many tricks. What if I am led by her by the nose?"

Hearing her very self-aware words, everyone nodded. They didn't expect her to be so self-aware.

Kevin thought for a moment and said calmly.

"I can give you a psychological hint so that you will subconsciously be wary of her, but it won't be obvious."

San Yueqi scratched his head, but didn't think much of it. He stood up and walked to Kevin, half-knelt down, and lowered his head towards him.

"bring it on!"

"What are you doing?"

Kevin was a little confused when he saw her strange behavior.

San Yueqi raised his head with a determined look on his face.

"Don't you want a pat on the head? I saw you patting Uncle Yang's head before."

Chapter 98 Meeting Yukong

When Walter heard her say "pat the head" on March 7, his body stiffened involuntarily, and the scene of his previous public death was still vivid in his mind.

Although his reaction was not very obvious, Xing, who was sitting next to him, still noticed something unusual. She looked at Walter and asked in confusion.

"Uncle Yang, what's wrong with you...'patting your head'?"

Xing guessed the correct answer subconsciously. After all, she had seen Walter's "straight for life" and Kevin's "head-patting move" on the train before. It left a deep impression on her and she couldn't forget it.

In Walter's mind, countless Holy Fire Judgements were being unsheathed at him. He was like being whipped repeatedly. He was talking about things that were not relevant. But when he thought about how March 7 was still so naive, he decided to just "share happiness with others rather than enjoy it alone."

"Cough cough..."

Walter cleared his throat with two light coughs, and then spoke nonsense with gritted teeth.

"Kevin's method works on consciousness. Patting your head can help you adapt faster and achieve better results."

As expected, San Yue Qi nodded, showing an expression that said "I knew it" and sighed.

"Great! It seems my guess was correct. Kevin must have a reason for touching Uncle Yang's head!"

Although Kevin had no expression on his face, he was a little confused in his heart. What was Walter doing? He knew that he was doing this just for...

Until he caught a glimpse of the hint of begging in Walter’s plain eyes when he looked at him, oh… I understand, then give him this face and don’t expose him.

Thinking of this, he looked at March 7 in front of him again and praised him.

"Well... you are also quite... observant..."

"Of course, let's get started, come and touch my head!"

March 7 nodded and urged, then lowered his head and pointed it at Kevin.

[You're still panting after just two sentences? You've been fooled and are completely stunned. ]

The voice in my head complained.

Kevin twitched the corner of his mouth, but still put his hand on it and rubbed it twice symbolically, but in fact he immediately used the power of consciousness to exert psychological suggestion.

Walter showed a satisfied expression when he saw this. As expected, those who are involved are often confused. Only when one is in the perspective of an outsider can one feel the great irony contained in this small action.

After the suggestion was given, Kevin quickly withdrew his hand.

San Yueqi closed his eyes and felt for a moment. He felt that his mentality seemed to have stabilized a lot. It should be the psychological suggestion that took effect.

Looking at the slightly shiny and slippery thing in his hand, Kevin frowned and asked.

"Did you... not wash your hair?"

As he spoke, a purple light appeared in his hand. The next moment, his palm became clean again, and then the light disappeared again.

Everyone was confused when they heard this, and San Yue Qi quickly stood up and retorted.

"How is that possible? I washed my hair before the flight meeting!"

Xing on the side quickly caught the blind spot and complained.

"You like to scratch your head every time you think about something. The more you scratch your hair, the greasier it gets. Look at you, you are so stupid."

"What about you? Are you scratching your head too?"

San Yue Qi put his hands on his hips, looked at Xing and asked back.
