The Returning Player, Ternan?

Noticing Gwen's appearance, Herta lightly touched the ground with his toes, his swivel chair spun around one and a half times, his long brown hair slowly falling down. Herta looked at Gwen and asked.

"I've looked at them all, but those shouldn't be all of them, right?"

Gwen nodded and casually pulled out a chair to sit next to the Herta.

"You're pretty quick at processing information."

Upon hearing this, even Herta couldn't help but raise an eyebrow—

Even though the information she sent to Gwen was only a part of what she knew, she was still slightly surprised after reading it while accompanying Ruan Mei on her trip.

"There was no other way; we were forced into it."

Speaking of this, Gwen smiled helplessly and shrugged—

He has fainted several times because of this. The development of the Third Order Gene Lock is almost catching up with the first and second orders. It is a case of demand driving technological progress.

"Since you digest things so quickly, then it's simple."

As Herta spoke, he tapped the ground with his toes, turned to the computer behind him, and with a light tap of his finger, brought up a model of the Planet Blue. At the same time, he sent several documents to Gwen Chat System.

"I'll look at them one by one in order. After I've finished, I have a few questions that I need your answers to."

"No problem."

Seeing the Herta's appearance, Gwen knew this was also part of her research on energy crystals, nodded in agreement, and began reading the information sent by the Herta...

By the time the two finished their discussion and arrived on Planet Blue, it was already evening of the next day.

"It's really beautiful..."

Gwen looked at the lake in the distance, bathed in the glow of the setting sun, and chuckled softly.

"No wonder it's your hometown."

"These are all newly built attractions in the last few hundred years. When I was a child, Planet Blue looked almost completely different from now."

Herta tapped his staff repeatedly, setting up information gathering equipment, and casually replied.

"But judging from those materials, Herta, you have already thoroughly studied this planet."

"You deserve immense credit for the development of Planet Blue to where it is today."

Gwen laughed.

"Stop being silly and get ready. If you can't make it halfway through, I'll laugh at you ten Amber Era."

—Even as she said this, the corners of Herta's mouth still unconsciously turned up, revealing her inner joy.

"If your device goes off the charts in a minute, I'll laugh at you for ten Amber Era."

Upon hearing this, Gwen immediately laughed as well.

"Then let's give it a try?"

Upon hearing this, Herta glared at Gwen, but his movements quickened, and he even dismantled and reinstalled several newly set-up equipment units.

And the final result of this joke-like bet was—

"Here you go, Planet Blue Energy Crystal. Make sure you keep it safe."

Gwen placed the energy crystal, which emitted a soft green light, into Herta's hand and said with a smile,

"I'll take these ten jokes about the Herta from the Amber Era."

"..."

Hearing Gwen bring up something he shouldn't have, the Herta couldn't help but glare at him, but then suddenly smiled—

"Say what you will, the fact is that the equipment I personally set up was blown up."

Anyway, the only one who can blow up my equipment is you.

However, Ruan Mei is currently conducting research on that planet, so she won't have time to give you a lap pillow..."

"?"

Gwen raised an eyebrow, surprised that this woman still remembered this. He saw that Herta's legs were together, and her smooth black stockings glowed faintly in the moonlight, making him curious about what they felt like.

"What, do you want me to be like Ruan Mei?"

Seeing that Gwen's gaze was indeed drawn to his actions, Herta curled up the corners of his mouth and asked with a smile.

"No, what I meant was, why do you think I'd be like a feudal nobleman who couldn't sleep without the service of beautiful maids?"

As Gwen said this, he turned and waved his hand.

"You go ahead with your work, I'm going to find your Asta..."

Before he could finish speaking, Gwen's figure vanished from before Herta, leaving Herta speechless and choked with emotion.

"Tsk..."

The Herta, caught off guard by Gwen's unresponsive response, was momentarily speechless, and the words "If you beg me" that were about to slip out were swallowed back.

With a slight hint of dissatisfaction, Herta rolled her eyes playfully, tossed the energy crystal in her hand, and ultimately decided not to call Asta out for an emergency overtime work. Instead, she began to tidy up the overloaded equipment.

Although he just spoke so nonchalantly, Herta was clearly not as indifferent to this matter as he seemed—

Ten Amber Era later, she'll see if Gwen can still blow up her watch!

After having a good sleep while holding the little rich stationmaster, Gwen went to the Luofu Alchemy Commission to make another round of adjustments with Ling Sha and Jiaoqiu, and then boarded the Stellaris Train parked in Luofu.

Since the crisis in Luofu has been resolved and the Stellaris Train has been designated as a VIP by the Luofu authorities, most of the passengers on the train have disembarked to explore.

Inside the observation car, only Pom-Pom was sweeping the spotless floor.

"Welcome back, Gwen Paltrow."

Upon seeing Gwen, Pom-Pom, who had just seemed somewhat alone, immediately perked up, toddled over to Gwen with her short legs, and cheerfully greeted him.

"Hmm, it's been a while, Pom-Pom."

Gwen also greeted the Conductor, then said with a smile,

"I brought a gift for the Conductor this time. Why don't you guess what it is?"

"Gift?"

Pom-Pom blinked, then her expression immediately showed interest.

"Could it be a specialty snack of Luofu?"

"No, didn't they bring back a lot of those in March 7th already?"

Gwen smiled and shook his head, pointing to Pom-Pom's feet.

Pom-Pom looked down and was shocked to find herself enveloped by a huge shadow!

Chapter 947 Returning Player Tirnan?

A pair of warm hands reached out from behind, perfectly covering Pom-Pom's eyes, and a deliberately husky, deep voice sounded from behind her—

Guess who I am?

"Passengers in March 7th, you are not allowed to play tricks on the Conductor!"

Subconsciously, Pom-Pom thought it was March 7th—

This mischievous girl always likes to tease Pom-Pom.

But Pom-Pom stopped halfway through her sentence—

Although March 7th would deliberately muffle her voice, her mediocre skills made it difficult to conceal even her girlish tone.

The voice that's teasing me right now is something that March 7th couldn't possibly imitate.

So...

Who exactly are you?

Pom-Pom waved her little hands, trying to get the other person to stop being naughty, but slapping the other person's hands had no effect. She could only question loudly.

However, in response to Pom-Pom's resistance, the newcomer only let out a low laugh—

"That won't do, you have to guess it first..."

"..."

Seeing the middle-aged man's expression, which was typical of teasing a child, Gwen didn't stop him. He just suppressed his laughter and took out his phone to film.

"Gwen, passengers, don't let them cause trouble!"

Pom-Pom, whose resistance was futile and who was almost picked up, waved her little arms, trying to get help from Gwen—

At least in Pom-Pom's memory, Gwen was relatively reliable, unlike the erratic March 7th Passenger.

"I'm sorry, Conductor, he said it's a train tradition, and I can't really argue with it..."

Gwen offered a sincere apology with malicious intent, but still managed to slip some useful information to Pom-Pom.

"The Stellaris Train doesn't have that outdated custom of making fun of the Conductor!"

Upon hearing this, Pom-Pom retorted angrily, but then her constantly waving little hands suddenly stopped—

Although Gwyn wasn't usually very bright, Gwen reminder was quite obvious, and Pom-Pom had also been thinking about this for a while, so she quickly figured it out—

"Tirnan!"

It's you, isn't it!

Pom-Pom shouted and patted Tirnan's hand, trying to get him to let go so she could turn around and look.

"As expected of the Conductor, I've lost this time."

Seeing that Pom-Pom had guessed his identity, Tirnan laughed twice and released Pom-Pom.

"A bet's a bet, so according to the rules, I'll be paying for lunch today."

Seeing Pom-Pom turn to look at him immediately after being freed, Tirnan wasn't embarrassed; instead, he stretched out his hands again—

"But for now, let's celebrate our reunion, shall we?"

"Don't turn on Pom-Pom!"

Pom-Pom had just been excitedly about to say something, instantly realized Tirnan's intention and cried out to stop him, but Tirnan had already picked her up and was spinning her around with cheers—

"Stellaris Train, I'm back!"

However, despite his loud rebuttal, Gwen didn't seem so resistant to Pom-Pom's expression. He simply held Tirnan's hands tightly, his expression even carrying a hint of nostalgia.

"Please don't shout in the observation car!"

When Pom-Pom, who had been spun around a dozen times by Tirnan, finally landed, she was unsteady on her feet, swaying from side to side. Tirnan himself also slumped onto the sofa next to him.

At the far end of the observation car, Dan Heng, witnessing this scene, pondered for a moment, remembering that he had seen Walter in the video Welt brought back, and recalling Tirnan's identity, decided not to show himself.

He only came out to check after hearing the commotion in the corridor, and now that they were his own people, there was no need for him to show up again.

However, Dan Heng wasn't going to show up, but before he closed the door, Tirnan called him back—

"Since you're already out, why don't you come in and sit for a while?"

"...

Hello, Mr. Tirnan, I am Dan Heng, currently a train security guard and part-time think tank administrator.

Dan Heng met Tirnan's gaze, abandoned his idea of going back to the dormitory, and pushed open the door to leave.

"Hello, think tank administrator."

As Tirnan gestured for Dan Heng to sit down, he reminisced.

"Speaking of which, I was also a guard on the train back then, but I wasn't as knowledgeable as you. As a result, I didn't know a lot of things after I got off the train, and I suffered quite a bit."

"Don't say that about Pa. It's precisely because everyone has their strengths and weaknesses that the Stellaris Train is Trailblaze for a group of people."

Pam was furious and wanted to jump up and kick Tirnan, the guy who had provoked the Conductor, but after hearing Tirnan's melancholy words, Pom-Pom didn't do so. Instead, she comforted him...

Tirnan's return was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise for the Stellaris Train. Pom-Pom called back the group who were playing on the Luofu that very noon to celebrate together.

Even though for most of them, Tirnan was just a stranger, weren't they all strangers before they boarded the train?

And Tirnan kept his word, demonstrating to Pom-Pom the skills he had honed over the years—

While not particularly amazing, the dishes were at least at the level of home-style cooking, and some of them, with their Penacony flavors, particularly piqued March 7th's interest.

"Speaking of which, our next stop is Penacony. Mr. Tirnan, didn't you also get off at Penacony before?"
