Star Railway: The Pioneer's Journey

Chapter 245 Lan: I'm here! I'm here!

Black Swan was waiting for her chance to appear when she was suddenly called by Yunzhi. She admitted that she was startled.

March 7th was also startled: "Huh? Are there other people here?"

In her eyes, the only people in the lobby besides them were the bartenders from the bar not far away.

A black swan dressed as a nun walked out from not far away.

"True Lord, we meet again."

A gentle voice came from inside.

Yun Zhi didn't even lift her eyelids, but kept her head down, playing with the jade pendant in her hand: "Please do me a favor, Ms. Black Swan, please don't try to negotiate with me."

It will become unfortunate.

The subtext wasn't spoken aloud, and the black swan wisely refrained from getting entangled with the clouds.

"I will bring her back safely, Lord, but given the current situation, Pinocchio's crisis is very urgent."

Yun Zhi seemed to chuckle: "Other people's territory has nothing to do with us. No matter how big the crisis is, we need to get our partners together before we discuss it."

"Madam, if you still want us to have a chance to talk, please bring Xing out for me now."

What are you waiting for? Hurry up and pull out the star!

The Black Swan smiled—it was impossible to tell from her expression whether she was embarrassed or not—and then she turned and left.

March 7th was a little worried: "Won't it be dangerous to send her to find Xing?"

Himeko also said, "She clearly wanted to talk to us from the beginning, but her sudden opening of the mouth seemed to have disrupted her rhythm."

By taking the initiative to seek out the Star Train, one can gain more control and reap greater benefits.

But Yunzhi called him out...

Yun Zhi has always been assertive when dealing with people he doesn't know well, which is not surprising. As the Star God's adjutant, if he shows weakness, it's one thing for others to look down on him, but it's quite another for them to look down on the Star God and his followers.

As expected, although Yun used the word "please" when speaking to Black Swan, his tone and behavior were almost identical to a command.

"So, you're really not going to get involved in the matter of the Luofu Immortal Ship?"

Himeko asked one last time.

Yun Zhi hung the jade pendant back on her waist: "I don't care."

He's not the league's nanny, why should he bother with all that nonsense?

"So, when is Xing coming back?"

March 7th was genuinely worried about her friend: "That woman is definitely suspicious, so suspicious!"

"Don't worry, with me here, whether it's suspicious or not is no longer important."

Yun Zhi stood up: "And her efficiency is quite good. Look, she found Xing in just a few words."

The message from the black swan was clearly visible on my phone.

—She found the person.

----------------

Xing spent a lot of effort to escape from the influence of the fireworks, the pursuit and interception of the dream, and the blockade of the final boss.

She's really unlucky.

First, she was thrown into the Daydream Hotel in her dream by fireworks, where she met fireflies.

After a series of trials with the fireflies, they saw and heard many broken sounds in the dream.

Even dreams are acting as riddle tellers now.

Then, in the final level, we encountered a strangely shaped mini-boss.

She and the firefly engaged in a battle with that thing.

That strange creature was quite troublesome, and in the end, it was only with the help of a nun-dressed Memory Recupator that they were able to escape.

Xing returned to reality.

The first thing I did, naturally, was to let my friends know I was safe.

So she ran to the hotel lobby.

At this moment, the group was gathered near the booths in the lobby, seemingly exchanging information.

Yunzhi was the first person to see her.

He smiled and waved.

"True Lord, look, I have brought this child back as promised."

The nun who came with her also smiled and looked at Yunzhi, the eldest brother of the train crew.

"Thank you, Ms. Black Swan."

Yunzhi's voice carried no gratitude whatsoever: "Now, we can discuss other things."

Xing was somewhat stunned, then turned to Black Swan: "Discuss...something else?"

Black Swan chuckled: "I am seeking cooperation with the Star Train in my personal capacity."

"As the True Lord said, in this murky and unfathomable water, if one does not wish to be submerged, one can only seek suitable allies."

The black swan looked towards the clouds.

Yun Zhi shrugged indifferently: "Let me correct you, Yi Zhe. Your so-called 'allies' are just your one-sided view. So-called cooperative relationships are never about working together in harmony; there's always a weaker party, isn't there?"

"Look at my personality, and you'll understand that I will never be the weaker party."

Yunzhi's tone became somewhat dangerous:

"So, Ms. Black Swan, if you want to cooperate with us, please put away your ulterior motives."

If Yunzhi wants to control the situation, then his subordinates cannot have any ulterior motives.

He doesn't expect them to obey his orders without question like the military, but at least they shouldn't be allowed to take advantage of the chaos.

The black swan expressed its understanding: "I understand, and you also know that Pinocchio's dream is currently 'sinking'."

Yun was in a bad mood and responded to every word the black swan said with sarcasm.

Although his target of mockery was not the Black Swan itself.

"Are the remnants of some deceased Star Gods planning to do something unsavory? Does Lady Black Swan know about this?"

The black swan asked curiously, "The 'deceased star god'?"

There are several Star Gods that have already disappeared.

"It's obvious that what's emerging from the family's territory is undoubtedly [Order]."

Yunzhi sat back down in the booth: "Hipe has long since assimilated Taiyi, but His followers still exist. However... there's really no need to worship a dead god."

The Black Swan smiled: "You can't say that. If one day [The Hunt] falls, would you also abandon your faith in Him?"

"I will die before Him."

Yun answered without hesitation.

He didn't know if Lan would perish, but Yun knew he would never die after Lan.

The black swan's eyes widened for a moment, and Xing couldn't help but exclaim "Ah!"

March 7th called out anxiously, "Zhi!"

Walter and Himeko also wanted to say something.

Yun interrupted in time:

"It's just a hypothetical situation, don't take it seriously."

Unless it's a war of gods, Cloud City cannot die.

Moreover, after saying that, Yun Zhi felt that the fate of [Hunter] seemed to be... slightly... a little... turbulent?

Although it was only for a moment, it should not be ignored.

Oh dear, it looks like the boss is coming.

Be more confident, maybe...

We've arrived.
