"Isn't Xianzhou Technology amazing?" March 7th said with a hint of pride. "It is indeed advanced," Hanxing replied noncommittally. "You can only see spacecraft of this level in science fiction novels from my hometown."
"For the Xianzhou native, this starship is their planet. Living on it is almost no different from living on a normal planet," Dan Heng explained simply from the side.
"Do you think... the Xianzhou would allow an unauthorized spatial portal to appear on its deck?" Hanxing suddenly asked curiously. "The moment you step out, you'll probably be taken to the Seat of Divine Foresight by the Cloud Knights guarding the customs." Qiong ended this boring topic.
Before long, the Astral Express landed at Starskiff Port under the guidance of the ferries. The personnel information had already been reported, and the five people boarded the deck of the Xianzhou without any hindrance.
"It's so similar... it's uncanny—" Hanxing looked around, speechless with surprise. "Speaking of which, what did Sunday mean when he said you were a time traveler?" March 7th asked curiously.
"It's a bit hard to explain, but you can roughly understand it as there are other parallel worlds outside of this world, and outside of those parallel worlds are other World Bubble, and I belong to one of those other World Bubble." Hanxing used some incomprehensible terms, leaving everyone wondering what he was saying.
"This... this is so complicated?" March 7th's mind was a little overwhelmed. "Sigh... I'll do it." Firefly looked at Hanxing helplessly and explained his background in a way that everyone could understand.
"So, the decorations on the Xianzhou resemble your hometown?" Qiong stood there for a moment before finally concluding. "Yes, that's why I feel a sense of nostalgia." Hanxing sighed softly. For some reason, he felt a little worried about his own world.
"It's alright. Even if this isn't your hometown, you still have me, you still have us. We are all real, living people right beside you, and that's enough." Firefly chuckled, her eyes encouraging Hanxing. "Yes, I still have you." Hanxing smiled back, her gaze meeting Firefly's eyes without any attempt to hide it.
"Alright, alright, I know you two are a couple, your eyes are practically drooling." March 7th was a little annoyed by this display of affection, then turned her gaze to the surroundings: "Returning to this familiar place, this young lady has quite a few feelings..." "What feelings? Tell me about them?" Qiong asked teasingly.
"It wasn't anything particularly poetic or picturesque, it's just that thinking about the twists and turns and horrors we experienced when we arrived at the Xianzhou last time..." March 7th thought for a moment, then decided to stop talking. "Just say what you want to say, we weren't involved in that incident anyway," Hanxing said understandingly.
"In short, such a smooth journey... is truly rare!" March 7th said, hands on hips, looking up at the sky. "Rare indeed!" Qiong echoed March 7th, hands in his pockets, sighing softly. "Rare indeed." Dan Heng followed suit. "Hmm... the train trio's teamwork is not to be underestimated—" Firefly looked at the three of them and smiled awkwardly.
Qiong suddenly opened her phone, tapped the screen a few times, then put it down again: " Yanqing said he'll be waiting for us at Starskiff Haven later, can we go find him first?" "Is Starskiff Haven this lively? There are so many people today! We can hardly hear each other!" March 7th exclaimed excitedly.
"Leave it to me." Hanxing nodded, and a blue star with a purple border appeared in her pupils. As the Tuning audio swept through, a mark indicating a " The Hunt " Path clearly appeared in Hanxing's field of vision. "Is that the boy in blue and white clothes? He's in that direction." Hanxing pointed in that direction. "Let's go."
"Five of you, five of you, please wait!" A tiny-looking child called out to the group. "Were those two calling us? Judging from their attire... they look like Penacony?" March 7th stopped curiously. "Are you all familiar with the Xianzhou Luofu?" the child asked.
"I know a little. May I ask what brings you here?" Dan Heng asked. "We're from Penacony, perhaps you've heard of this place? We've come to the Xianzhou to collect some interesting dream material," the robot beside him replied. "Quite a coincidence, we just left there," Hanxing replied with a smile.
"That's great! Do you know any must-see attractions on this ' Luofu '?" the robot's voice was cheerful. "You've come to the right person," Qiong replied with a smile. "Of course! The three of us are experts on the Xianzhou!" March 7th chimed in, "Most tourists during this period will visit the Wardance. That's why we're here."
"Of course I know about the Wardance." The child's voice was somewhat dissatisfied: "But isn't the arena for the Wardance not open yet?" "I heard that this year's arena is a modified giant warship retired from Luofu." The robot's voice followed. Hanxing followed his gaze to the sky, where the huge warship appeared before him.
" Xianzhou Technology, it's truly amazing..." Hanxing stared blankly, this was the second time Hanxing had been shocked by Xianzhou Technology: "This should be comparable to the largest warship in my hometown, although it's in the water--" "Of course! This is a giant fighting ship, and it's in the sky." The robot beside him was somewhat oblivious to the excitement.
"But we can only board the ship a few weeks from now when the Wardance begin. Before that, we can't neglect our work—that's why I'm asking you, what are some worthwhile tourist attractions to visit?" the child chimed in.
"We're looking for that special experience, one that's rarely seen in Penacony's everyday dreams. Our clients love this kind of dream bubble," the robot added. "Qiong, it's up to you," Hanxing said with a mischievous grin, passing the conversation to Qiong. "Let's go to Aurum Alley," Qiong replied curtly.
"That's a great idea. The down-to-earth atmosphere of Aurum Alley is a rare sight at the ' Planet of Festivities '," Dan Heng agreed. "The down-to-earth atmosphere... indeed. These days, our clients have experienced all sorts of thrilling and exciting dreams. Perhaps it's this kind of relatable content that can help them rediscover what's touching," the child chimed in.
"Thank you for your guidance. We'll head to Aurum Alley now to gather inspiration. Perhaps we'll meet again there in a couple of days." The robot gave a brief farewell.
