"My opinion?" Chen Jie was somewhat surprised; he hadn't expected Ji Zi to ask him this.

"Suppose she deceives us, could she gain any benefit, or indirectly benefit those around her?"

"If not, no one would bother to tease us. It's a thankless and time-consuming task, and I don't think anyone would do that."

"Unless this person is a pleasure-seeking individual."

The answer isn't necessarily that Kafka will gain anything, but Dustfall, who has grasped the other layer of Kafka's meaning, knows that while she might not gain anything, those around her might.

"Dustfall's hypothesis makes a lot of sense. Kafka doesn't need to go to such lengths to play games with us; she's a villain, not a clown."

Walter immediately agreed with Dust's point of view; everyone was an adult and would think things through before acting, except for [pleasure].

Himeko remained silent. Had it all been an illusion? After considering Chen Jie's answer, she also felt he was right, and decided to dismiss the strangeness as a mere illusion.

"Um, Uncle Yang, Ji Zi, why don't you ask for my opinion?"

Hoshi's voice rang out inappropriately, and Welt and Himeko instinctively looked over.

"Of course, freedom of speech is allowed on the train, Star."

Seeing Walter's words, Xing didn't mince words anymore, "I think Kafka didn't deceive us, but she does need us."

"For example, she might want us to achieve some other goal for her, a goal that can only be achieved in 'Luofu'."

At this moment, Chen Jie looked at Xing with some surprise. It was one thing that San Yueqi's mind suddenly became sharp, but why did Xing's mind suddenly become sharp as well?

Walter was startled, his eyes filled with surprise as he looked at Xing: "It's not impossible that Xing is right; on the contrary, it's very likely that Xing is right."

"A conspiracy, huh?" Himeko fell into deep thought. Dust Calamity's speculation and Star's speculation were not contradictory and even compatible, but when combined, the truth seemed to have come to light.

Kafka didn't deceive them, but she did have ulterior motives; she needed them to go to "Lof" to achieve some unspeakable secrets for her.

After a while, March 7th brought Danheng into the carriage.

My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. There will be more exciting chapters later!

Upon entering the carriage, Dan Heng saw everyone waiting for him and immediately got to the point: "March already told me roughly what happened. Now it's time to vote, right?"

Himeko nodded slightly: "Yes, whether or not to go to the Luofu Immortal Ship will be decided by a democratic vote."

Extending your hand means agreement, not extending your hand means refusal.

"Three, two, one"

Five hands were extended, but Dan Heng remained unmoved.

Himeko glanced at the list and concluded: "Five to one, a majority vote, so the train's next destination will be changed to the 'Luofu' Immortal Ship."

"One, two, three, four... Huh? March, didn't you say that Kaffa was lying and no one believed her?"

After counting the stars on his palms, Xing immediately looked at March 7 with a questioning expression.

Seeing Hoshino's questioning expression, March 7th gave an awkward laugh: "Uh, I was thinking, what if what that woman Kafka said is true? We can't just stand by and watch her die, can we?"

So many innocent people are being harmed; we can't just stand by and do nothing.

Walter stepped in at the opportune moment to smooth things over: "Little March is like that, don't worry about it."

Himeko then turned her gaze to Danheng, who had voted against the decision: "Danheng, are you going to stay this time?"

"Well, I won't go this time."

Himeko nodded in acknowledgment and then looked at Welt.

"Walter, I've seen you eager to get started, so this time it's up to you. Take good care of the kids who've only recently joined [Pioneer] and March 7th."

Upon hearing this, Chen Jie slightly raised his eyelids but did not refute it.

Chapter 68 The Immortal Ship "Luofu" Has Arrived at Its Station

"Now that the destination has been confirmed, this train conductor is about to initiate the jump. Passengers, please prepare yourselves."

Having observed the entire journey, Pam left the carriage once her destination was confirmed.

"The target ship—departure!"

"Quickly, Xing, Chenjie, sit down."

No sooner had Pam left than March 7th became excited and hurriedly urged everyone to sit down on the sofa.

It's hard to imagine that this cheerful young girl was not long ago questioning Kafka with a disgruntled expression and stating that she denied and disbelieved her views.

"Uh, March, Chen Jie is right, you are very lively."

After settling in, Xing looked at the March 7th celebration, which had started again, with a somewhat speechless expression.

"Dust Calamity, isn't March 7th afraid of pain? There's no cushioning material on her chest."

Upon hearing this, Chen Jie, who had just casually picked up a book, raised an eyebrow and turned to look at the puzzled Xing.

"Shock-absorbing materials? Xing, you don't have any either."

"That's why I won't be like March, it must have hurt a lot, right? I saw her rubbing it for a long time last time."

This time, Chen Jie remained silent. It seemed that not only these two were absent, but the child in his memory also seemed to be quite young.

Uh, this thing still can't be done by stimulating DNA, it's too unsafe. We'll see if we can take that child to Bailu's place after we get to Xianzhou; pharmacological methods would be more reassuring.

How many doses of medicine should be prescribed?

"Xing, although I don't know how you learned this all by yourself, your words may be rough, but the principle is sound; what you said is indeed correct."

As the brains of the expedition team, Xing's lips practically curled into a smile after being praised by Chen Jie.

"That's right! I studied under Seele for a while!"

At this moment, Chen Jie felt how heavy the knowledge contained in the book in his hands was.

It simply wouldn't fit into Xing's mind, and under these circumstances, the child even went to consult another like-minded person who had traveled far away.

The calamity has already struck; if possible, let's try to save it. Otherwise, if Xing becomes like Seele, spewing vulgarities all over the car, he'll have to jump out and run away.

Meanwhile, Welt had already closed his eyes, while Himeko sat quietly listening with a half-smile on her face.

As March 7th expertly muttered to himself, the broadcast started at just the right moment.

"The jump is about to begin! Passengers, please prepare!"

"five four three two one!"

The blue light spread across the starry sky, and the train vanished from this star field with a whoosh.

"Ouch! That hurts so much!"

"The train is about to begin its second jump. Please do not leave your seats!"

She had heard Xing and Chenjie's conversation clearly, and her face flushed red with embarrassment. Just as she was about to correct herself and not do it again, the broadcast started.

"Three, two, one!"

"Wait, Pam! I'm not even seated yet! Why are there two fewer people counting down this time?!"

In a panic, March 7th had barely taken a few steps when the familiar blue light once again enveloped the Star Train. The next second, March 7th, who was still running, was sent flying.

"Pfft, sorry, I didn't really mean to laugh, it was just that I couldn't help it because of March's performance."

Dust Tribulation couldn't help but laugh out loud, but everyone else was in a similar state.

Himeko looked at March Seven, who was rubbing his head with one hand and his chest with the other, with a hint of heartache.

"Little March, will you dare to do it again next time?"

"I won't do it again, I won't do it even if you kill me!" March Seven murmured after replying to Himeko.

"I never imagined that doing this would not only hurt, but also make me lose all face because of what Xing said. I'm never doing this again."

Everyone walked to the window, marveling at the enormous doorway. March 7th and Star stared wide-eyed.

"Wow, is this the Immortal Ship? It looks much bigger than Yalilo-VI, and this gate, how come it's so big!"

Xing stared in astonishment at the view outside the window, and although she didn't speak, she nodded in agreement.

Looking at this familiar yet unfamiliar thing, Chen Jie felt a strange sense of emotion.

"That's called the Jade Realm Gate. It's the only connection between the Immortal Boat Grotto and the outside world. People from other realms must undergo rigorous checks before they can enter through it."

March 7th turned to look at Chen Jie, "Chen Jie, have you also studied the Immortal Ship? What did those outsiders mean by that?"

What does "outsiders" mean? Chen Jie raised an eyebrow, a strangely amusing idea popping into his head.

"Do you want to hear something nicer or something unpleasant?"

"Huh? This thing has a good-sounding and an unpleasant-sounding version? Let's start with the good-sounding one?" March 7th was quite surprised, feeling that something was off about this form of address.

"The more pleasant-sounding term is naturally 'outside the civilized world'."

"What about the unpleasant ones?"

For some inexplicable reason, when pressed for answers on March 7th, Chen Jie actually laughed, giving Xing, who was observing, a bad feeling.

"A savage, an idiot, someone who can't read, learn, or be educated."

Upon hearing this, the train carriage fell into complete silence. March 7th and Xing stared wide-eyed at Chen Jie in disbelief.

"This! This...this!"

"What's wrong with this immortal ship?! Who is it cursing?!"

Xing, standing to the side, remembered what she had just said to Chen Jie, and her face instantly turned red, but she still forced a serious expression as she looked at March 7.

"In March, how about we just quit like Danheng?"

On March 7th, she quickly shifted her gaze to Xing, and the two of them seemed to share a sense of sympathy and a common hatred for a common enemy.

"That's what I think too! Xing, you really understand us!"

"Hehe, alright, it's not as serious as Chen Jie made it out to be. The Immortal Ship won't treat you differently because of this, so don't worry."

Intermittent electronic audio signals echoed in the carriage, and Himeko's explanation further interrupted Hoshi and Mitsuki's next decision.
