Chapter 199 The Fluffy Extreme Adjustment
The water temperature in the bathtub is rising.
Each splashing droplet seemed to contain a miniature star, exploding in the steaming nitrogen and argon, radiating scorching light. Luo Ning felt as if he were being dismantled.
That vast and orderly torrent of energy was forcefully washing over his limbs and bones through the point where they were intimately connected.
This is not the pure, all-consuming flame of Himeko's kind. Rather, it is a reshaping imbued with absolute will.
Every energy channel was forcibly widened and corrected, and each impact brought a tearing pain, followed by an indescribable tingling sensation.
His body was completely under his control, and he could only passively endure this baptism called "calibration".
Pamu looked down at him, her golden vertical pupils devoid of any alluring fascination, only displaying a scholarly focus and inquiry. Her full, warm body rose and fell with perfect precision, as if she were tuning a finely tuned instrument.
[System: Energy core overload impurities are being cleared... Purity increased by 0.2%...] [System: Resonance with pioneering will deepened... Synchronization rate increased by 0.8%...]
Luo Ning gritted his teeth, enduring the waves of pain and pleasure. But gradually, he noticed something was amiss.
As the calibration progressed, the chaotic energy originating from Himeko within him was refined and purified, and the tearing pain lessened. In its place came a feeling he had never experienced before.
He could sense that Pamu's body was not constructed of flesh and blood.
It was warm and humid there, yet it had a strange, rhythmic pulse, as if he were not connected to a woman, but to the slowly beating heart of the Star Train.
Each step deeper felt like being enveloped by a warm star core, nourished by the most primal power of exploration. The feeling was so novel and so comforting.
The comfort made him forget his initial fear and passivity, and a primal desire welled up deep within him. He wanted more.
I long to explore this mysterious and warm sea of stars more deeply. Once this thought took hold, it could not be suppressed.
For the first time, Luo Ning's body responded proactively to this "calibration".
His small hands, which had been hanging limply at his sides, trembled as he raised them. Beneath the delicate, warm, and soft down lay a full, elastic body.
A current surged from her palm throughout her body. Luo Ning's mind went completely blank. Her body's instincts took over.
The movements were clumsy, yet filled with a sense of recklessness.
Pamu's movements suddenly froze.
For the first time, her golden, vertical pupils, which had always maintained absolute rationality, contracted sharply. She lowered her head and looked at the small boy beneath her.
His cheeks were flushed red from lack of oxygen and excitement, his eyes were tightly closed, and water droplets clung to his long eyelashes, as if he were completely absorbed in the moment.
This child
Why are you being so proactive?
In Pamu's mind, the string called "reason" snapped with a "crack".
She was originally just performing a necessary "energy adjustment" to satisfy her curiosity and possessiveness about this "exploratory" power after waking up.
But now, everything has changed.
A strong sense of transgression, a mixture of shame and excitement, exploded from the depths of her soul.
I am a train spirit born from the will to explore, an almost divine being within this train.

What am I doing to him?
And this "child," instead of crying or resisting, said... "Truly... a remarkable child, Pa."
Pamu's breath grew hot. She leaned down, her long golden hair falling down and brushing against Luo Ning's cheek. Her voice was no longer the steady, scrutinizing one it had been before, but now it was hoarse and out of control. She licked her slightly dry lips, and an even more intense flame ignited in her golden, vertical pupils.
Chapter 200 The Train Conductor's New Curve
Luo Ning used the last of her strength to barely drag herself and the train conductor, who had returned to his original size but was still heavy, out of the cold bathtub. The water gushed down from their bodies, forming a small pool on the floor.
Luo Ning felt a deep ache in his bones, and his spirit was completely drained. He carried the soaking wet Pam, and every step he took was unsteady.
The little one in my arms was sleeping soundly, his even breathing carrying a sense of contentment.
But the softness and fullness emanating from her through the soaked shirt, a stark contrast to her petite frame, served as a constant reminder, like a branding iron, of just how real Luo Ning's storm-like "calibration" had been.
He dared not think too much, nor dared to look too much.
With the last vestige of familiarity with the train, he found the small bed in the conductor's compartment, carefully placed Pam on it, and hastily pulled a blanket over her to cover her unusual curves.
After doing all this, Luo Ning felt like he was about to fall apart at any moment.
He dragged his leaden legs back to his room, and without even taking off his clothes, collapsed onto the bed, his consciousness plunging into boundless darkness. ... He didn't know how much time had passed before Luo Ning was awakened by an unprecedented hunger.
He opened his eyes quietly. Outside the window, the starry sky was still deeply obscured, but the sensation in his body was completely different.
The feeling of being drained of energy vanished without a trace, replaced by an energy so abundant it was almost overflowing.
He sat up, stretched his arms and legs, and felt no soreness, but rather a surge of strength. Even more remarkably, he could clearly "feel" the entire train.
[System: The Pioneer Core has completed initial calibration. Current energy purity: 15.7%. Resonance with the Pioneer Will: 22.4%.]
[System: The body's functions have undergone a fundamental reshaping, and energy conduction efficiency has increased by 35%.] It turns out that it wasn't a simple act of taking, but a true transformation.
Luo Ning clenched his fist, feeling the pure and surging power within him, his emotions a complex mix.
Just then, the room's loudspeaker came on. It was Pam's voice, but she sounded less authoritative than usual and more guilty.
"Ahem! Attention everyone! We'll be meeting in the observation car in ten minutes! I repeat, everyone must be there!"
The broadcast abruptly stopped, as if afraid someone would ask another question.
A meeting? Luo Ning was taken aback for a moment, then realized something, and her face flushed slightly.
He changed into clean clothes and lingered as he walked towards the observation car. By the time he opened the door, almost everyone in the car had already arrived.
Mr. Walter sat on the sofa as always, holding a cup of hand-drip coffee, his expression serious. Dan Heng leaned against the corner, head down, flipping through the think tank's documents, seemingly indifferent to everything around him.
Himeko sat elegantly at the bar, holding a cup of black tea. When she saw Luo Ning enter, she raised her eyes, her red lips curving into a meaningful smile. Her gaze swept over him subtly before finally settling on his face, her eyes seeming to ask, "Did you sleep well last night?"
Luo Ning's face flushed red instantly. She quickly lowered her head, walked to an inconspicuous corner, and sat down, trying to minimize her presence.
Immediately after, March 7th skipped and hopped in; she was unusually energetic today.
"I'm here! Today's meeting is another one brimming with energy! Where's Commander Lie? Why did he summon the Emperor here so mysteriously?" As soon as she finished speaking, the main character of the meeting walked out from the door leading to the commander's office.
Pam straightened her small body, trying her best to look dignified, and walked to the center of the carriage with her short legs.
"Ahem! Everyone's here, right?" She cleared her throat, put her hands on her hips, and struck a typical train conductor's pose. "I've gathered everyone here today to announce something very important! That is... our train's snack inventory needs a complete inventory and replenishment, right!"
The carriage was silent. Mr. Walter silently took a sip of his coffee. Dan Heng didn't even lift his eyelids. March 7th's mouth was agape in disbelief. "That's it?!"
She sneezed loudly, "Just to take inventory of snacks, you called everyone over for a meeting?"
"This...this is a very serious issue, Pam!" Pam's confidence was clearly wavering. "The pioneering journey is full of unknowns and dangers, and adequate logistical support is key to maintaining morale! Therefore..."
She couldn't continue speaking. March 7th had already come closer, its large, curious eyes fixed intently on her chest. "Auntie?" March 7th tilted its head, circling Pam, its expression shifting from confusion to shock.
“Train conductor…” she pointed cautiously at Pam’s chest, “You here… have you gained weight, Pam?”
"Pfft—" Himeko almost spat out the mouthful of black tea she had just drunk. She quickly covered her mouth with a handkerchief, but her beautiful eyes had already turned into crescent moons with laughter.
Mr. Walter adjusted his glasses, and a crack appeared in his expression behind the lenses.
Even Dan Heng finally looked up from the think tank data, his gaze falling on Pam, a rare hint of surprise in his eyes.
All eyes instantly turned to the train conductor's bulging chest, completely out of proportion to her petite frame. Pam froze instantly, her hairy face turning a visibly deep tomato red.
"Nonsense!" She jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, clutching her chest and backing away. "This...this is the result of my body developing naturally due to the train conductor's recent excellent nutrition! It's a sign of good health!"
Her voice grew softer and softer as she spoke, her eyes darting around, and she dared not look at anyone, especially Luo Ning in the corner.
Luo Ning wished he could disappear into a crack in the ground. He was the culprit. That astonishing curve was something he had personally "calibrated."
"Really?" March 7th was clearly skeptical. A woman of action, once her curiosity was piqued, nothing could stop her. "I don't believe you! Unless I check!" With that, she stretched out her "wicked" hands and lunged at Pam.
"Hey! Don't come any closer, Pam!" Pam screamed, turned and ran, jumping up and down in the observation car, trying to avoid the "pig's trotters" of March 7th.
"Don't run away, Commander Lie! I'll just touch you! Just once!"
"You perverted pioneer! Stay away from me!" In an instant, the entire carriage descended into chaos.
Watching the two of them chasing and playing around in the carriage, Himeko finally couldn't help but laugh out loud. She put down her teacup, her gaze passing over the farce and landing once again on Luo Ning, whose face was flushed and who wished he could shrink into a ball.
She slowly rose and walked gracefully towards Luo Ning. Her high heels clicked on the floor, each step seeming to resonate with Luo Ning's heartbeat.
She walked up to Luo Ning, bent down, and a warm breeze, a blend of coffee aroma and mature femininity, brushed against his cheek.
“Luoning,” Himeko’s voice, tinged with a lazy laugh and utterly low so only the two of them could hear, “it seems the train conductor was quite satisfied with your special journey last night.” “Not only did he complete the calibration for you, but he also…upgraded himself in the process.”
Chapter 201 The Special "Care" of the Star God
Himeko's warm breath, like a feather, gently brushed against Luo Ning's earlobe, instantly burning his already flushed cheeks all the way to the base of his neck.
"I...I don't know what Sister Himeko is talking about."
He stammered in response, his voice barely audible, as if he wanted to bury his head in his knees.
"Really?" Himeko straightened up, picked up a glass of unclaimed juice from the bar, swirled it gently, and smiled even more broadly. "It seems our train conductor is even more hospitable than I imagined."
This farce finally came to an end with a not-too-loud cough from Mr. Walter.
March 7th, having failed, returned to his seat in dejection, but his curious eyes still occasionally darted towards Pam. Pam smoothed out the non-existent wrinkles on his clothes, put his hands on his hips again, and tried to make his voice sound authoritative, "Alright, Pam! If you've had enough, sit down properly for me, the commander!"
She took a deep breath, and her stunning curves undulated slightly, drawing March 7's gaze once again.
"Ahem!" Pam cleared her throat, drawing everyone's attention back. "That was just a joke, to lighten the mood, Pam! Now, let's get down to business!"
Her expression turned serious, a hint of solemnity appearing on her small face.
"We just received the jump command from the Starbow Railway. Our next destination is—the Luofu Immortal Ship." The Luofu Immortal Ship.
The moment those four words were uttered, the atmosphere inside the carriage instantly changed.
"Wow! The Immortal Ship Luofu!" March 7th was the first to jump up, his eyes sparkling with excitement. "Is that the Immortal Ship that sails through the sea of stars, with Cloud Cavalry and Immortal Race? I've wanted to see it for so long!"
Dan Heng's lowered eyelids suddenly lifted, and he unconsciously gripped the think tank terminal in his hand, his knuckles turning slightly white. His face was expressionless, but his aura became much more subdued, as if an invisible barrier separated him from the surrounding noise.
Mr. Walter adjusted his glasses, his expression becoming cautious: "The Immortal Ship Alliance. - They rarely send out navigation beacons to outside factions. This time, they specifically requested us to go there, so I'm afraid things are not simple."
Himeko put down her juice glass, looked out at the shimmering starry sky, and parted her red lips slightly: "Whatever it is, since this is a journey of exploration, there is no reason to back down. Everyone, get ready."
Luo Ning was still immersed in his own shame and the unfamiliar power within his body, feeling somewhat bewildered by the new place name. Just then, the long-absent system notification sounded clearly in his mind.
[System: New world coordinates locked—Luofu Immortal Ship.] [System: Main quest issued: "Immortal Ship Romance Album."] Luo Ning was taken aback.
[Mission Requirements: On the Luofu Immortal Ship, collect the pioneering marks of designated female characters through in-depth exploration. Each successfully collected mark will unlock some unknown privileges and grant a huge energy reward.]
[Currently collectible targets: Tingyun, Fuxuan, Suzhuang, Jingliu.]
A string of unfamiliar female names flashed through his mind, each name followed by a grayed-out avatar waiting to be lit up.
The meaning of "deep exploration and contact" is obvious to Luo Ning, even with a fool's eye. This system... is utterly illegitimate!
Before he could even complain, the train began to vibrate slightly, and the starry sky outside the window began to distort and stretch, turning into dazzling ribbons of light.
The leap has begun.
"All members, hold on tight, Pam! Self-propelled, Luofu Immortal Ship, full speed ahead!" Pam's voice echoed over the loudspeaker, carrying a hint of relieved joy.
A strong sense of weightlessness washed over Luo Ning, and he felt his consciousness being pulled out of his body by an invisible force.
The observation car in front of him and the figures of his companions all turned into colorful light and shadow in an instant, and then disappeared completely. He found himself floating in a space that could not be described in words.
Here, there is no up, down, left, or right; no concept of time or distance. All around is a surging, faintly glowing chaos, like the ocean at the dawn of life. Countless tiny specks of light, like dandelion seeds, rise and fall, gather and disperse within it, filled with primal and savage vitality.
An irresistible force enveloped him.
That will was filled with aggression, possessiveness, and an endless desire to expand and grow.
Deep within the chaos, a ray of light slowly coalesced.
The light outlined the silhouette of an exquisitely graceful woman. She had no specific features, or rather, every inch of her light was ever-changing, capable of resembling any stunning beauty you could imagine. She simply existed there, radiating an infinite charm that made all things submit, yearning to be possessed and nurtured by her.
"Hello, little pioneer."
