Chapter 75 Starship Sea
Chapter 75 Starship Sea
The story continues.
Tingyun's gaze lingered for a moment on Walter's cane, Xing's distinctive attire, and the faint pink glint in March's hair, before suddenly realizing, "Could it be... that you are all nameless passengers on the Starry Sky Train?"
The three nodded.
"Exactly!"
"We have heard that the Immortal Ship is currently facing a disaster, so we have come here to help the Immortal Ship deal with the problem of the star core."
Tingyun's expression visibly relaxed, and she bowed slightly: "I see... I was impolite. But this matter... I cannot make the decision myself. Later, I will need to ask Lord Yukong, who is in charge of the Sky Ship Bureau, to make the final decision."
She stepped aside to lead the way, her voice regaining its previous lightness: "Don't be afraid, Lord Yu Kong is a kind person, please follow me!"
A barrage of "I've realized something" scrolled across the screen:
"The art of speaking... it's flawless."
"Not making decisions on his own and not offending anyone, he truly is a businessman who thrives in the business world."
"Gradually losing myself in the calls of 'benefactor'..."
Is he truly a kind and compassionate person?
......
The group followed Tingyun through several corridors and arrived at a ferry crossing.
Tingyun, who was walking ahead, suddenly stopped.
March 7th peeked out: "Why did you suddenly stop moving?"
Tingyun turned around, smiling somewhat embarrassedly: "It's nothing, it's nothing... I just wanted to ask you all for a small favor."
March 7th immediately became alert: "What... a small favor? I won't do it! If I'm not careful, you'll send the Cloud Cavalry to arrest us again!"
Tingyun covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyes sparkling: "Oh dear~ I did misspoke just now, please don't take it to heart, my benefactor."
She raised her hand and gently pointed ahead with her slender finger: "Look, the road ahead... is blocked."
In the middle of the road, a huge metal container stood blocking the only way through—judging from its design and the surrounding mechanism, it was a temporary roadblock to prevent monsters from passing.
Gui Naifen controlled the silver wolf to move forward, and sure enough, a faint "hacking" symbol appeared on the side of the container—a simple white wolf head.
Consumes one Secret Point.
Silver Wolf tapped the virtual screen a few times with his fingertips, and the heavy container emitted a low hum as it automatically and smoothly moved to the left, revealing a clear path behind it.
I didn't touch the control panel next to me the whole time.
The screen was filled with "666" comments:
"I have a feeling there will be quite a few puzzles to solve on the Immortal Ship..."
"Awesome, it feels just like being at home (tactical lean back.jpg)"
"Wolf Baby is too versatile; he can open any lock."
"A newbie who joined later got Silver Wolf by mistake! Hehe, the experience was fantastic!"
......
With the roadblocks cleared, the ferry leading to Sichen Palace is just ahead.
Suddenly, on March 7th, someone pointed to the left and asked curiously, "What...is that place over there?"
Tingyun looked in the direction she was pointing: "That's the ferry crossing leading to the Pill Refining Division. My benefactor... please follow me forward."
The group continued on their way.
Along the way, Silver Wolf practically became a "lock-picking expert," obediently making way for all sorts of traps, roadblocks, and encrypted doors under her fingertips.
His leisurely stroll was just like he was taking a walk in his own backyard.
When the group finally arrived at the ferry crossing leading to Sichen Palace—
A burly elite monster, shrouded in an ominous green light, stood blocking the path, its aura menacing.
It seems that many of the monsters in the Immortal Boat Luofu are weak to wind.
Enter battle.
The Black Swan gracefully raised her hand, lightly waving her combat skill. A dark purple arcane aura coiled around her, applying the [Weathering] effect to the enemy.
Silver Wolf followed closely behind, unleashing his combat skill. The flashing blue quantum light not only added a weakness to lightning but also subtly reduced the opponent's defense.
At that very moment, Kafka's pursuit judgment was triggered—a bullet flew out like lightning, and the weathering mark was instantly detonated!
As a series of numbers appeared, the [Electric Shock] effect had already afflicted the enemy.
When it was the elite monster's turn to act, before it could even make a move, the negative status effects all over its body were triggered one after another, its health bar visibly dropped sharply, and it staggered and crashed to the ground.
—There was absolutely no need for Kafka to take any action herself.
The chat started discussing the mechanism:
"DOT team...there's something going on here!"
"I understand the principle: when our actions inflict a debuff on the enemy, the damage is automatically calculated at the start of the enemy's turn."
"Kamo's mechanics are even more domineering; she can detonate all continuous damage during her turn, resulting in an instant burst of damage."
"Actually, Pella's combat skills and Rakshasa's ultimate move can dispel this monster's buffs... so there are countermeasure cards available."
......
After defeating the elite monster, an item also dropped – "The Unsent Letter Home".
The yellowed envelope, carefully folded, lay quietly in the player's inventory.
......
Board the Starship.
The streamlined boat carried everyone away at incredible speed, leaving the clouds on both sides as blurry streaks of light.
The comments section was filled with exclamations:
"Starship... its speed is ridiculously fast?"
"What do you think? Immortal Ship's cutting-edge technology, kid!"
"But why is it shaped like a wooden boat? It doesn't quite match the sci-fi style of the rest of the game..."
"Once you figure out what this starship is made of and how it operates... you won't ask this question anymore."
......
The scene subtly shifts.
A picturesque aerial harbor with scattered pavilions comes into view – Xingchahai.
Countless starry rafts darted across the sky like swimming fish, leaving elegant streaks of light in their wake.
From this angle, one can even see the majestic Jade Gate in the distance, like a giant gate guarding the natural barrier.
In the center, several magnificent palaces are built against the mountain, with flying eaves and brackets, carved beams and painted rafters, yet they seem to float above the sea of clouds, connected by corridors and bridges, with light and shadow flowing around them.
The elegant charm of classical Chinese aesthetics is perfectly blended with the sci-fi feel of the vast sky and interstellar travel, creating a unique and immersive experience.
Star, March 7th, and Walter all fell silent for a moment, their gazes sweeping over this spectacle that defied description.
Tingyun's voice rang out at just the right moment, carrying a perfectly measured hint of pride:
"Then, please allow me, on behalf of the Tianbo Company, to welcome all my benefactors to the 'Star Chariot Sea'."
She turned slightly to the side, spread her arms, and pointed to the bustling and magnificent airspace: "On the 'Luofu' immortal ship, all matters concerning airspace management, navigation scheduling, and interstellar trade are handled by the 'Sky Ship Division,' which ranks among the six divisions."
"I should have shown you all around properly, so that I could do my part as a host... but unfortunately, these are extraordinary times."
She turned and looked at the tallest building in the distance, her tone becoming more formal:
"Let's go to Sichen Palace first and report our purpose to Lord Yukong."
March 7th blinked: "Sichen Palace?"
Tingyun nodded, her gaze falling on the most prominent and majestic palace in the complex:
"That's... the headquarters of the Sky Ship Bureau."
Bullet comments:
"What a beautiful view!"
"Are all six warships of the Immortal Ark styled this way?"
"I really want to go see it! But the boat tickets are too expensive!"
"Let's forget about it now! Let's wait until Luofu is safe!"
