As the group arrived at the entrance to the plaza, they saw a group of monsters surrounding two Cloud Cavalry soldiers not far ahead, with a fox-woman behind them.
"The mastermind behind this has emerged."
Zhou Xingxing pointed at Tingyun and said.
"Clam?"
March 7th looked at Stephen Chow with some confusion, wondering how he came to this conclusion.
"Didn't you just say that those appearing at this time are all behind-the-scenes manipulators? I think you're always very accurate."
"But...this isn't the first person we've encountered, is it?"
March 7th corrected Zhou Xingxing.
"Right, shouldn't the mastermind be the first wounded soldier we encountered?"
Qiong nodded.
"This is not the time for jokes. It looks like the people over there need help."
Walter shook his head helplessly.
As the two were talking, Tingyun couldn't help but chime in.
Why are these people standing over there chatting?
"Hey! You guys, come help me out!"
"I'm coming."
Qiong rolled up his sleeves, grabbed his baseball bat, and charged forward.
Seeing that the monster didn't seem to pose much of a threat, Walter didn't interfere and let the others deal with it.
However, the fact that the monster could recover from its injuries so quickly after being defeated once surprised Walter.
"Thank you all so much for rescuing me!"
Seeing that the group had nimbly dealt with the demonic Yin body, Tingyun thanked them with a smile in her eyes.
"Benefactor?"
Qiong found this name rather strange.
"It's just a way for me to address my benefactor; it shows more respect that way."
Tingyun explained with a smile.
“Miss Tingyun, the demonic spirit has been eliminated, and the crisis has been temporarily averted. However, this place is still extremely dangerous. Please come back to the Tianbo Company with us immediately.”
Seeing that everyone was still chatting, the Yunqi soldiers beside him quickly reminded Tingyun.
"I know, I know, what's the rush? We haven't properly thanked these benefactors yet, it would be too impolite to just leave like this."
Tingyun waved her hand, indicating that she hadn't introduced herself yet.
"This humble woman is Tingyun, the ferryman of the Luofu Tianbo Merchant Guild. May I ask the names of you gentlemen?"
"You're welcome. I'm just passing by, Galaxy Baseball Man."
Qiong put away her baseball bat and said calmly.
"Hehe... This benefactor's name is quite heroic, and this one..."
Tingyun looked at Zhou Xingxing again.
"I am but a humble soldier, not a man of great talent."
Stephen Chow answered calmly.
"Stick Warrior..."
Tingyun is a bit confused. Why are these names getting more and more abstract? Is the next one going to be Sailor Moon?
"Oh dear, don't listen to their nonsense. They just like to make a fuss when they introduce themselves. This is Xing, this is Qiong, I am March 7, this is Bronya, and this is Uncle Yang... Mr. Walter Yang."
On March 7th, unable to bear the two rambling on, he quickly stepped in to introduce them.
Bronya, on the other hand, just smiled and didn't say anything.
"I see. Thank you all for your help. But there is one thing I don't understand: Xingcha Sea has been completely blocked. You are not from the Immortal Boat, so what are you doing here?"
"If there isn't a reasonable explanation, the two leaders of the Cloud Cavalry Army will have to put you two in a difficult position."
Although she was smiling, everyone could tell that Tingyun's words were not untrue.
No wonder there's the term "smiling fox," Zhou Xingxing thought to himself, staring at Ting Yun and nodding in agreement.
Upon seeing this, Walter quickly explained, including the events that occurred after the Jade Gate was connected and people were brought in, and the subsequent events at the port.
"I see. I've heard of your Starry Sky Train. I believe you didn't come to Luofu with ill intentions; but you've come at a truly unfortunate time. The celestial ship had an accident and is not suitable for entertaining guests. Whether you've come for sightseeing, medical treatment, or business, I'm afraid you won't be able to do anything."
Zhou Xingxing stared at Tingyun, feeling... the more he stared, the more she resembled Huanlong. Could Tingyun be Huanlong's alternate account?
Once this thought came to mind, it flooded Stephen Chow's mind like a tidal wave, and he could never go back.
Why is this benefactor staring at me so intently?
Tingyun noticed Zhou Xingxing's gaze, glanced at him, and smiled slightly.
"Oh...this is my first time seeing a fox-person, I'm quite curious..."
Stephen Chow coughed twice and quickly made up an excuse.
"Oh, then my benefactor should be more careful in the future. I don't mind, but staring at other girls so intently will make me look like a pervert."
Tingyun gave a meaningful smile, and then said nothing more about the matter.
But after Tingyun finished speaking, Zhou Xingxing felt two murderous auras behind him...
I couldn't help but shudder.
Wait... why are there two strands?
Chapter 117 Soda Soy Milk
Walter briefly explained his purpose, revealing his desire to help Luofu eliminate the crisis in the star core.
"Hehe, thank you all for your righteous help. Without the authorization of Lady Yukong, who would dare to act on my own? Please come with me to the central area of the Starship Sea for refuge. I will take you to see Lady Yukong, who is in charge of the Skyship Bureau. The subsequent matters will be decided by her."
As Tingyun spoke, he led the way, and everyone obediently followed behind.
On the way, Tingyun stopped in front of a group of containers.
"Oh dear, it seems I'll need to ask my benefactors for a small favor."
Tingyun turned around and spoke to the crowd.
"See all those shipping containers in front of us? They're blocking the road. Luofu is currently facing a crisis and is short-staffed, so there's no one to operate these containers right now, therefore..."
Before Tingyun could finish speaking, Qiong tugged at Walter's sleeve and then pointed to the containers in front of them.
"Uncle Yang, Uncle Yang, I want to see what it looks like when a container is shredded."
"..."
Walter pushed up his glasses with a hint of exasperation. He had expected March 7th to be quite a commotion, but Sora was clearly no less so, and he looked slightly tired...
"There are some things we can't do carelessly. If we do, I'm afraid Miss Tingyun will send the Yunqi Army to arrest us again."
"My benefactor, please don't make things difficult for me. This container is full of valuable goods, so this is not possible."
Tingyun shook his head speechlessly; these people really dared to say such things.
After some 'deciphering', the group finally arrived at a starship.
"My benefactors, look! This is the ship I was talking about, the celestial raft."
"This boat doesn't look very big. How can it hold so many people?"
Qiong stared at the starship in front of her; it was smaller than her own bed.
"This star raft may look small, but it has a lot of secrets inside. You will know once you go inside."
As Tingyun spoke, she gestured for everyone to enter.
Once inside, it was discovered that the interior of the Starship was much larger than it appeared from the outside; there was room for five or six people to sit comfortably.
It's completely unimaginable that this is the interior of that tiny starship we just saw.
"How do you drive this boat? Why doesn't it even have a steering wheel?"
"Hmm, and it looks so old, it doesn't seem to have much of a technological feel."
Zhou Xingxing and Qiong started whispering and studying at the bow of the ship.
"This starship is a transportation vehicle that has been genetically modified and 'grown' from Jianmu wood. Although its appearance cannot compare with those spaceships and airships, its main focus is on being close to nature and environmentally friendly."
As Tingyun spoke, he gently waved his hand towards a spot to the side, and a compass floated over and stopped at the bow of the Star Chariot.
"And this star raft is also driven by an array, requiring no fuel and therefore causing no pollution."
Everyone nodded in agreement; it was indeed environmentally friendly and saved on fuel costs.
When Stephen Chow walked closer, he realized it was the same roundabout used for docking at the port. Turns out it can also be used to operate starships; he knew that all too well.
"Okay, then leave it to me."
Upon hearing this, Tingyun slowly typed out a question mark.
"This must be your first time using a star raft, my benefactor. A star raft is no ordinary mode of transportation. While it's not difficult to get started, it's not something you can learn in a short time..."
Before Tingyun could finish speaking, Zhou Xingxing skillfully spun the roulette wheel, and then the Star Chariot started moving.
This time, not only Tingyun, but everyone else also slowly typed out a question mark.
Especially Qiong, she herself hadn't even figured out what this thing was, and this person already knew it?
"My benefactor, have you perhaps been to the Immortal Ship before?"
Tingyun was somewhat surprised. Putting aside whether he could actually turn it on, the fact that he could start it up without any instruction was astonishing enough.
"I've never been there; maybe it's just a talent."
"Heh, I won't pry into my benefactor's secrets. But let me, as the ferryman, take charge of this star raft. After all, even if you know how to navigate it, you don't know the way, do you?"
That's true, so Zhou Xingxing obediently stepped down and gave way to Tingyun.
