Starry Sky Railway: People on the train, nine to five

"I said...Master stayed in Yalilo VI with Lord Extinction to cover our retreat!"

Xingmei raised her voice a little more. For some reason, she felt that communicating with Sanyueqi now was a bit like talking to the hard of hearing old man downstairs.

A bit strenuous...

"..." San Yue Qi was silent for a second, then he stood up: "How can we let him stay! He is the Lord of Extinction! We have to go find him!"

"March... calm down and take good care of your injuries. The train has sustained some damage and needs repair. We will return as soon as the repair is completed..."

Xingmei comforted March 7th.

"Hmm..." March 7th seemed to realize his own gaffe and sat on the edge of the bed in a daze.

Everything was fine yesterday...

They just agreed on a one-month period...

How did it become like this?

"Xing...can our eyes and ears...be restored?" March Seven spoke slowly as he felt the environment was covered with a layer of gray.

"..."

Xingmei did not answer directly. According to Walter's recent examination, the situation was not optimistic. This state of unclear vision and hearing will accompany March 7 for a period of time. As for how long this period will be, it depends on whether he returns to the Black Tower Space Station for more specific recovery treatment.

"It will be fine..." Xingmei said softly.

"Attention, the Starry Sky Train has been overhauled and is about to jump again. The jump destination is... Yalilo VI! All passengers, please pack up your weapons and equipment and gather in the sightseeing car..."

The voice of conductor Pam was heard on the train broadcast. Xingmei was happy at first when she heard the voice, but then she realized that the news was heard by March 7.

"You should have a good rest...March." She said aloud.

But San Yueqi was not going to obey. Her lover's life or death was still uncertain, and she couldn't feel at ease at all.

"Take us with you... Xing."

San Yueqi looked at Xingmei. At this moment, Xingmei was just a blurry figure in her eyes. She could only vaguely judge Xingmei's location.

Xingmei: "..."

instantly.

In the sightseeing car of the Starry Sky Train.

Walter, Ji Zi, and Dan Heng were all sorting out their weapons. When they saw Xing Mei and March Seven coming over, Ji Zi, who had a serious face, first showed a look of surprise, then frowned and looked at Xing Mei and said:

"Xing, please take her back to rest..."

"We won't." Without waiting for Xingmei to answer, Sanyueqi answered first as if he had predicted it: "We are going... Our eyes are fine..."

Listening to Sanyueqi's stubbornness, Ji Zi was silent and then whispered: "Sanyue, where am I?"

San Yueqi seemed not to hear it and did not respond.

"You said everything was fine..." Ji Zi shook her head and gave Xing Mei a look. Xing Mei understood what he meant and with a sharp move, she shut down the phone cleanly and efficiently.

The skillful level of this movement is somewhat similar to that of her master Zhou Xiao.

Seeing Sanyueqi gradually falling down, Xingmei hurriedly supported him.

"???"

"Xing, what are you doing?" Ji Zi didn't expect Xingmei to be so simple and rude.

"Ah? Isn't that what you mean?"

"I asked you to take her back..."

"Ah, I see." Xingmei scratched her head: "She refused, but this is still efficient."

"Hmm..." Dan Heng, who had been silent for a long time, glanced at Xingmei's clean and neat technique just now, and he slowly said:

"This action is a bit like a person...Zhou Xiao."

Walter: "..."

Ji Zi: "..."

"Okay." Ji Zi asked Xingmei to send Sanyueqi back, and then asked Pam to prepare for the jump.

As the jump was started again, the entire train once again transformed into a stream of light, shuttling through the darkness ahead.

The entire transition process did not last long.

When the damaged body of the Star Train appeared again at Yalilo VI, everyone was ready for battle.

Ji Zi had already evolved thousands of possible scenarios in her mind. The worst one was that Zhou Xiao died in battle, Yalilo No. 6 was destroyed, and the Lord of Extinction had not left yet.

Even in the best case scenario, Zhou Xiao is still fighting with the Lord of Extinction, and they forcibly take Zhou Xiao away...

What kind of situation awaits them?

The stream of light ended, and the imagined scene did not happen before her eyes, and Ji Zi was a little surprised.

As far as the eye can see, Yalilo No. 6 is still there outside the car window, and the battle has stopped long ago, leaving only debris on the ground as traces of the battle.

ended?

it's over...

Everyone has a very complicated feeling at this moment.

This kind of calmness is very abnormal...

Maybe Zhou Xiao defeated the Lord of Extinction?

This is indeed a possibility.

But... it's hard to be convincing.

That was the Lord of Extinction! The Envoy of Destruction! Besides, Zhou Xiao’s previous attack didn’t cause any damage to the Lord of Extinction, so how could they defeat the Lord of Extinction after they left?

"Let's check the battlefield..." Ji Zi said slowly.

The others nodded.

...

After inspecting the battlefield, the closer we got to the planet Yalilo VI, the more obvious the traces of battle became, and there were many huge fragments floating above the star field.

Walter examined it for a long time before giving an answer. This was most likely the body fragment of the Lord of Extinction, and it was stained with some... traces of Zhou Xiao's energy.

So... Zhou Xiao really defeated the Lord of Extinction?

After hearing Walter's conclusion, it was hard for everyone to believe this fact. At the same time, a bigger doubt arose in their hearts, which was... where did Zhou Xiao go?

If Zhou Xiao really defeated the Lord of Extinction, then what he would most want to do would definitely be to find the Star Train... and with Zhou Xiao's poor sense of direction, the best way would be to stay where he is and wait for them.

"Go to Yalilo Six!"

Ji Zi made a sharp judgment.

If Zhou Xiao wanted to wait for them, the best place would be Beloberg...

"Ah."

The crowd divided into two groups.

Walter stayed on the train to take care of March 7 and survey the star field near the train to avoid further danger, while Ji Zi took Dan Heng and Xing Mei into Yalilo No. 6 to look for Zhou Xiao's trace.

This last city standing on the snowfield now glows like the afterglow of dusk. In the sky, one can vaguely see traces of human buildings that once existed here. Without the will to preserve itself, Beloberg...is just an ordinary city.

Under the guidance of Dan Heng, Ji Zi walked into Beloberg on the ruins.

Chapter 93: Undercover Star Core Hunter? (Second update!)

At this moment in Beloberg, Bronya is actively taking on the responsibility of the Grand Guardian and leading the Silver Mane Guards to rescue and resettle the victims. She and Seele are working together to try their best to balance the people in the upper and lower districts.

"Bronya! Seele!"

Bronya heard someone calling her and looked for the source of the voice, only to see one of the aliens appear before them again.

Yes...

星？

Ok.

It seems that he is Zhou Xiao's apprentice.

Bronya and Seele came down from the height of the ruins and saw Danheng, Xing, and a strange red-haired woman.

"Why... why are you back?"

"Looking for someone." Dan Heng said calmly.

"Looking for someone? Who?" Xier was a little confused.

"Zhou Xiao..."

"Is Zhou Xiao in Beloberg?" Seele looked at Bronya and asked.

"I don't know...I haven't seen it either." Bronya shook her head.

"He didn't come back..."

When Ji Zi heard the voices of these two people, her brows frowned again. She began to guess that maybe Zhou Xiao was lost on the snowy field of Yalilo No. 6 again.

"Speaking of which...when the antimatter army invaded before, that big ball fell down...did you help intercept it?" Xier described the Lord of Extinction in this way.

This adjective startled Dan Heng and the others, and then they began to explain.

"That's not a big ball, it's the Lord of Extinction, the leader of the Antimatter Legion... As for interception... We tried to intercept, but we tried our best. In fact, we just retreated, but Zhou Xiao stayed with the Lord of Extinction to cover our retreat..."

"If someone intercepted it...it would most likely be Zhou Xiao."

Listening to the explanations of the train crew, Seele and Bronya felt mixed emotions.

Zhou Xiao?

Did Zhou Xiao save Beloberg again?

Just as everyone was silent, a childish voice sounded from a distance.

"Big Brother and Big Sister..."

Clara's voice came from far away and gradually approached. Swarovski was right next to her. After she heard Swarovski say that the variables appeared again, she hurried over and prepared to complete the task assigned to her by Zhou Xiao.

"It's you...Clara." Seeing Clara approaching, Xi'er was a little confused: "What does Clara want to talk to us about?"

“No…Clara is here to deliver a letter to Brother Zhou Xiao to his brothers and sisters.”

Clara said as she carefully took out the letter left by Zhou Xiao from her clothes and handed it to Dan Heng on tiptoe. For some reason, she felt that the ice-faced brother in front of her had a better relationship with Zhou Xiao than with the others.

"I?"

A look of surprise flashed across Danheng's face, and then he bent down and took the letter.

Under the gaze of the crowd, he felt a little uncomfortable, and then handed the letter to Xing Mei and said, "You are Zhou Xiao's apprentice, come and have a look."

"..."

Xingmei did not refuse. She opened the letter and read it carefully. The expression on her face gradually changed from solemn to astonished.

"What's written on it?" Xier asked curiously. She didn't even know Zhou Xiao had been here.

"Master..." Xingmei organized her words and continued: "Master said he will not return to the train for the time being..."

"..." Ji Zi was silent.

"..." Dan Heng couldn't help but frowned a little.

Parting... so sudden?

...

"He said he met the Star Core Hunter... The Star Core Hunter invited him, and he wanted to infiltrate the Star Core Hunter... Undercover? It should mean undercover, right?"

Xingmei's next words made Ji Zi go from silence to shock, and her face, which had a bit of mature charm, showed confusion as she couldn't understand Zhou Xiao's behavior.

The Star Core Hunter...actually appeared on Yalilo 6?

Zhou Xiao actually went undercover as a Star Core Hunter?

this...

"What exactly does he want to do?" Ji Zi pursed her lips, somewhat confused about Zhou Xiao's actions.
