On the "Rare and Precious", Argenti is driving the spacecraft, and Morien is sitting on a seat not far behind the driver's seat.
Swarm was wrapped tightly around him, as if he was wrapped in several layers of quilts.
Although Argenti suggested that as long as the bugs don't bite, they can be allowed to crawl and fly around without being crowded together. After all, "They are just a group of children."
But Morien still did not accept this kindness.
In the final analysis, Morien still wants to be more or less proud.
Even if it's just a ride on someone else's spaceship, it's a bit unreasonable to see bugs crawling everywhere.
"By the way, I haven't asked you where you want to go." Argenti turned on the autopilot system of the spacecraft and turned to communicate with Morien.
"Uh... I actually don't have anywhere I want to go..." Morien replied.
"That's right." Argenti nodded, expressing understanding, "You are still looking for your own path."
Morien shrugged, noncommittal.
After thinking about it, he decided to confirm the current time.
"Speaking of which, Argenti, have you ever dealt with anyone from Astral Express?" he asked.
"Of course," Argenti replied, "Not long ago, I boarded Astral Express and saw an extremely beautiful creature on it. She was willing to recognize my ideas and could understand my persistence. She is almost my best friend."
Best friend? That means you have met Trailblazer.
Well... not that long ago...
"Then can I stay with you for a while recently?" Morien asked, "I don't have much place to go recently."
Argenti looks very happy:
"It's my pleasure."
After saying that, he once again started operating on the bridge in front of him.
Although Argenti looks like a medieval knight, his spaceship is quite advanced.
There are no steering wheels, buttons or various wires in the driving area of the spacecraft. There are only translucent light curtains floating on the operation panel.
"I actually prefer the feel of the steering wheel, but it will be much more convenient for long-term driving."
Argenti introduced it to Morien who was curious and watching.
"Hmm."
Morien nodded, and after Argenti adjusted the settings, he continued to ask:
"By the way, Argenti, do you know what major events related to Astral Express have happened in the universe recently?"
Argenti thought for a while and said.
"I heard that Astral Express not long ago liberated a planet that had been frozen for hundreds of years by Eternal Freeze, and Xianzhou also fought against a Lord Ravager."
"It seems that you are very interested in Astral Express, right?"
"Yes." Morien admitted.
This is nothing to deny.
[Trailblaze]Aeon Akivili has the two top attributes of "the cosmic succubus heartthrob" and "the prematurely dead White Moonlight". Even Aeon has several of them who can't forget him.
This leads to the fact that in this universe, people yearning for Astral Express are everywhere.
After all, Astral Express is the car of [Trailblaze]Aeon Akivili.
[We still don't know how many people and gods watched the Akivili high jump back then...]
Argenti suggested:
"If you yearn for Astral Express, Charmony Festival is about to open recently. Astral Express will probably receive an invitation and may also go there."
He turned his head and glanced at the light curtains on the operating platform.
"I also received an invitation to participate in Charmony Festival."
He took out a music box and handed it to Morien.
"With this, you can also move into the Reverie Hotel in Penacony. At that time, you may be able to see Astral Express in Charmony Festival."
Charmony Festival?
Capturing the key words in Argenti's words, Morien immediately understood the current timeline.
Charmony Festival has not been opened yet, which means it is still in the preparation stage for the plot of Penacony.
As expected of a cosmic street slut, he has quite a lot of information.
But...
"Ah this..."
Morien looked at Argenti.
"You just gave me the invitation?"
"Then what should you do? You were invited, right?"
Penacony is not something you can enter just because you want to.
This planet is shrouded in a dream, and you need to pass "Dream Pool" to join.
Argenti smiled, very pure.
"Indeed, the behavior of breaking a promise is indeed not beautiful."
"So I will rent a room in the outer area of Penacony and enter Penacony through "Dream Pool" there."
Morien blinked and suddenly remembered.
In the original work, Argenti is like this, rescuing people along the way while walking on the way to Penacony, saving a total of thirty-two people, and bringing them all into Penacony.
Obviously, he did not have thirty-two invitations.
So he rented thirty-two rooms in the periphery?
"Thank you so much." Morien took the music box, "Please let me praise [Beauty]'s goddess Idrila again for her unparalleled beauty."
Anyway, even if he doesn't accept it, Argenti won't use this music box in the end.
Just as he just recalled, he will save a total of thirty-two people in the next few days and bring them all to Penacony.
It is certainly impossible for him to live in a large luxurious room by himself and let others live in a small single room.
In this case, it is better to benefit others than to benefit them.
At least he will praise Idrila fiercely.
"I heard that Astral Express never refuses anyone who wants to board the bus." Morien continued to chat with Argenti.
"Yes, such behavior is also so beautiful." Argenti praised.
After saying that, Argenti kindly reminded:
"I heard that [Pleasure]Aeon once blew up half of Astral Express."
This is to remind Morien that it is best to explain [Pleasure]Masquerade to Astral Express Crew about his face before getting in the car.
Although the relationship between [Pleasure] and [Trailblaze] is very good, the factions on both sides are friendly enough.
But the previous idea of [Pleasure]Aeon lurking Astral Express for decades just to blow up Astral Express once was still too advanced.
He was worried that Astral Express Crew would become stressed.
Morien made an OK gesture.
"I understand."
After speaking, he pretended to think and said:
"Speaking of which, the number "Rare and Precious" may take us directly to Penacony, and then maybe we can also have some fun with Charmony Festival."
After all, that's how the original work was written.
Argenti only thought it was Morien who wanted to experience the dream star, but he did not throw cold water on it and just agreed with a tone that could provide emotional value:
"It is possible."
Morien feels really comfortable chatting with Argenti.
Time passed little by little.
The two chatted for a long time, and Morien asked a question casually.
"Speaking of which, the universe is so big, is it too much of a coincidence that you can find me directly?" Morien looked at Argenti and asked.
Hearing Morien's question, Argenti turned around and clicked a few times on the console in front of him, and a light curtain immediately appeared in front of Morien.
"It's because of this."
"Oh, high technology." Morien looked at the translucent light curtain in front of him.
This is an unsigned email with only one coordinate and nothing else.
"So you mean, you found me through this, right?" He pointed to the coordinates in the email, "This is my coordinates at that time?"
He couldn't understand it, but he could make a rough guess.
"Yes." Argenti turned back and looked at Morien, "About six system hours ago, this text message appeared in my e-mail."
"I'm sorry, my number "Rare and Precious" is no better than Astral Express. I can't jump freely in the universe. I can only transfer through the jump points set up by Interastral Peace Corporation in the universe."
"So, I came a little late."
"When there are six systems..." Morien sighed with emotion, "I must have rushed here at full speed."
The universe is so big, even if he could jump through space, it would be really difficult for him to find it within six systems.
