Chapter 114 [Two-in-One] Preparation before the jump...
It was a sunny and windy day, spring was in full bloom, people were coming and going in the commercial square, some were wearing hats, some were holding umbrellas, and some were wearing masks.
No, the only person wearing the mask was a tall man in cool clothes.
The man was quite tall, even half a head taller than Akivali.
When he heard Akivali expose his disguise, he did not get angry, but emerged with a smile.
There was an atmosphere of joy that could not be concealed all around him. Wherever he went, even crying children could not help but burst into laughter.
The square was full of joy.
"Oh, dear Akivali, I missed you so much!" The star god with a sharp laugh wore a mask with a strange smile, which was red and firmly attached to his face. "I didn't expect to meet you here—"
"Don't give me that," Akivali said without hesitation, "You've been following me for a while, right? And the thread on Lu Qi's body was all your doing."
What line?
The current Aha has no idea what his future self has done, but since the blame is put on him... he might as well take it. How interesting!
"So this is how you see me! I'm so sad, dear Akivali," Aha wiped his mask, imitating the feeling of wiping away tears. "To reward you, I want to give you a gift!"
Aha rummaged in his pocket, took out a huge ball, and stuffed it into Akivelli's arms with a smile on his face.
"A bomb!" He said with a grin, "But Ahab made more than one bomb. There are 999 more. Guess where they are?"
Akivelli didn't answer, but Aha couldn't help himself and blurted out.
"Yes, right below this square!"
"Why don't you say all over the planet?"
"Oh... you have a point. Next time, Ahaha will bury them all over the planet."
"Thanks for the reminder. I'm leaving now. Goodbye."
Akivelli did not follow Aha's script. He spoke perfunctorily, waved goodbye to Aha, and turned to leave.
"Wait wait, Achivelli, you're not going to stop me?"
"This square is so small, how did you bury all 999 bombs? I'm afraid they're all buried underground."
"Aha never lies," said the Joyful Star God, "of course, I used some tricks—"
"What about the explosion time?"
"Oh no, Aha forgot to set the start time!"
The pretending happy Star God patted his head, and while he was pretending to be annoyed, Akivali had already left.
His former friends now kept their distance from him and were friendly to the unknown passenger who had just boarded the bus.
Is this the Lu Qi that Akivalli mentioned?
Her long hair, gradating from white to gray, was slightly curled. She had her back to Aha and tilted her head slightly, revealing two pointed dragon horns on her head.
The new passenger is a Dragonborn, and in an age when the immortal Star Gods have disappeared, his entire body exudes the power of an immortal destiny.
Looking more closely, she also had some of the Star God's blessings mixed in with her.
Are the descendants of the immortals seeking refuge with other star gods? That's really interesting.
"Achivelli, oh, dear Achivelli, how could you be so cruel as to leave me?"
Aha stuck on like a dog-skin plaster and suddenly appeared in front of Lu Qi.
Xiaobailong was startled, and his pupils were filled with Aha's enlarged masked face.
He inserted himself directly between the two of them, blocking Lu Qi's sight with his tall body.
Lu Qi was still holding the wheat juice that he hadn't been able to hand over.
"Is this for me?" Ah Ha smiled happily and shamelessly intercepted, "I'm so touched... Thank you, dear Lu Qi!"
Akivali's hand reached out from behind Him and took his drink before Aha could.
"Beer with ice really tastes good—thank you, Lu Qi, shall we go home now?"
He ignored Aha, pushed away the guy who was in the way with one hand, and said with a smile without any grudge.
"Wait a minute, let me check the shopping list first," Lu Qi tacitly ignored Ah Ha. When the noisy Star God frantically waved his hands in front of her to make his presence felt, she skillfully turned sideways. "I'm almost done. There are still some additional requests from others... It's still early, let's go back after we finish shopping."
Lu Qi slapped away Ah Ha's outstretched hand.
Being ignored, Ah Ha could only pretend to cry. Seeing that Akivali and Lu Qi ignored him, he immediately changed his way to make his presence felt.
"Achivelli, dear Achivelli, I have something to say to you!"
It was like a thousand ducks quacking in my ears; even if I blocked the sound, it still continued to come through the isolation of the mist.
Lu Qi walked forward quickly, wanting to leave Akivalli behind as well.
So cruel!
Akivelli had no choice but to get rid of the annoying Aha first.
The Joyful Star God got the result he wanted and smiled again.
"What do you want to say?" Akivali asked unhappily.
"Oh... Akiveli, your attitude towards me is as cold as winter! But it doesn't matter. Aha will light a fire of passion in the cold winter," said the masked star god. "Don't be too angry—oh, are you angry that Aha interrupted your date?"
"It's not a bother, but I certainly don't want you to butt in," Akivali said. "What kind of trouble are you trying to give me this time?"
"Achivelli, in your mind, I'm just like that piece of scrap metal, only able to give others quizzes? I'm so sad!"
"Did you cry?" Akivali asked curiously, looking at his dry mask.
How could the Joyful Star God cry? He was just pretending to cry.
"No, Ahaha isn't intelligent," the Joyful Star God changed his mind in a split second. He had originally wanted Akivelli to dig for the bomb buried underground, but now that game seemed boring enough. "I'm more interested now."
The gaze under the mask fell on Lu Qi not far away.
The white-haired, golden-eyed dragonborn could easily hear the conversation between the two. Her pointed ears moved slightly and she raised her head like a vigilant kitten.
"Why are you two looking at me?" she asked warily. "Don't you have something to say? Say it quickly, or I'll go shopping first."
With a little white dragon urging him on, Akivali had no choice but to fight quickly.
The pioneering star god was extremely capable of taking action. After thinking for a while, he took off the conspicuous pendant hanging on Aha's neck.
"Wait a minute, Aha hasn't finished speaking yet—"
"Is this the switch for the bomb?" Akivelli said, and pressed the button without hesitation despite Aha's seemingly panicked movements.
"Bang——"
A loud explosion was heard from the direction of the musical fountain. The statue on it broke into many pieces, and the fragments flew across the sky, hitting the nearby tourists and making them jump around and scream.
After that, countless flowers burst out from the statue, as if they were puffy balls that grew when they came into contact with water. They madly absorbed moisture and reproduced, and almost in the blink of an eye, the place was turned into an unprecedented sea of flowers.
It is impossible to predict Akivali's behavior. What this star god thinks in his mind is different from that of normal people, and he is unique even among star gods.
After all, other star gods basically act according to their destiny, but Akivali is the only one who is different.
There are almost no restrictions on His actions; He only needs to keep exploring and walking in the universe.
There are no restrictions on playing and you can laugh and cry normally.
Ahab loved Him.
This crazy behavior of pressing the button without knowing the situation was even more joyful than happiness. Ah Ha was stunned for a moment and soon burst into laughter.
Amidst the flowers and the shouts of the crowd, only His laughter was the loudest.
"Oh...Akivelli, dear Akivelli, I love you so much!" Aha said excitedly, "It's decided, Aha will also be an unknown guest!"
Lu Qi took advantage of the unknown flower seeds growing wildly and ran into the air. The dragon could fly without even the help of the cloud chanting technique.
Hearing Ah Ha's words, Lu Qi had a bad feeling in his heart.
This is not right. Ah Ha also wants to get on the bus and be an unknown passenger. What a joke——
But things went against his wishes, and Lu Qi's ominous premonition came true the next second.
"Ah, yes," said Akivali.
***
Akivalli returned to the train with a head full of scars.
Since the chaos in the square was not caused by them, neither Akivali nor Lu Qi intended to pay for Aha's outrageous behavior.
After shopping, she returned to the train with Akivalli.
The Joyful Star God who said he wanted to get in the car too did not follow.
In Aha's words, Akiveli now knows his identity, so it would be pointless to get on the car directly, as it would easily expose his existence.
Although those unknown passengers on Akivali's train were all very bold and could easily mingle with the Star Gods - but that was only limited to their own Star Gods.
The Joyful Star God Aha is a god from another camp. His sudden appearance on the train would probably attract the attention of his followers.
He only cares about the fun things himself and doesn’t want to share them with others!
So Aha decided to pick a random place on their subsequent route and get on the bus. He also made a bet with Akivelli that Akivelli would not be able to recognize it.
These two bastard star gods started to bet, and when they bet, they used Lu Qi as the "wager" in front of her.
If Aha wins, he will take Xiaobailong to play for a century. If he loses, he will be Xiaobailong's slave.
Lu Qi was originally furious, but after hearing the following words, his unwavering heart began to waver a little.
Don't be tempted, Lu Qi! She began to convince herself in her mind, what's the point of having Ah Ha work like a slave? Ah Ha would soon bomb her wardrobe!
But this is a good opportunity to drive the Star God——
By the time Lu Qi reacted, she had already agreed.
She realized belatedly that Akivali had hidden himself in this bet, and whether he won or lost, it had no effect on him at all!
As soon as Lu Qi got back on the train, he first put down all his things, and finally stood on tiptoe to pinch Akivali's ear.
"It hurts, it hurts—don't use so much force," Akivali complained falsely, bending down. "You should change your bad habits... Why do you always like to hit people when you get into trouble?"
"I never hit anyone," Lu Qi said sinisterly, slapping away Akivali's hand that was on her waist. "I only hit those Star Gods who deserve to be hit."
"You must be talking about Aha," Akivali said confidently.
"Asshole, you're so good, you're encouraging me to agree to the bet... What if you lose?"
"No," Akivelli blinked, a smile spilling from his special golden eyes. "I never said I wanted to have a fair fight with Aha."
The Joyful Star God would not lie. It was unclear whether it was a personal trait of his or a limitation of his destiny.
Ahab is a man of his word, but when interacting with Him, one needs to be careful of some traps hidden in His words.
Human language is very special, and different words have different meanings when spoken.
Just like in a square on the planet Yaroli, Ahab said that he buried 999 "bombs" under the square, but it was not certain whether these "bombs" were made of gunpowder or something else.
Then He can tamper with the content.
Compared with Aha, the Pioneer Star God has fewer restrictions.
Akivelli didn't like lying, but that didn't mean he couldn't lie.
And...He didn't lie about this matter.
The gray-haired star god showed an innocent expression.
"I got a little something on Him."
"it works?"
"Hmm... well, I'm not sure," Akivali said honestly, "Maybe a little bit... Wait, don't bite my gloves - wait until I take them off... Don't look at me like a pervert, I'm not a pervert!"
After Akivali took off his gloves, Lu Qi shut up.
Those two cute little canine teeth were hidden between his lips and tongue, never to be seen again. Akivali sighed with regret.
I haven't even touched her little fangs with my fingers yet... What a shame.
"I don't care. If you lose, you can go play with Aha in my place."
"Hey, are you going to abandon me?"
"Don't give me that, it's obviously your fault!"
"I'm sorry, I was wrong." Akivali raised his hands in surrender.
He had said this so many times that it sounded insincere to Lu Qi. Seeing that Lu Qi was not buying it, the bastard Star God could only follow her pitifully, trying to get her to pay attention to him.
"Lu Qi, Lu Qi, please don't ignore me," Akivali followed Lu Qi like a little dog, "I'm sorry... I won't bet with you again."
"...You're so annoying, don't follow me."
Lu Qi felt that her mind was filled with images of Achieveri calling her name like a tape recorder. She pushed Achieveri's approaching face away and couldn't help but curse him.
"Don't you have anything of your own to do?"
Of course there is.
The evil done by Akivali could not be solved in a day or two. Just the part that was eaten by the gem crystal lizard would require a huge amount of materials to repair.
There was another thing that Lu Qi had forgotten, but Akivali still remembered.
Xiaobailong's room is in that carriage. Her room is the worst-hit area. Basically, everything inside is unusable, let alone sleeping in it.
But it was not Lu Qi's regular rest time yet, and she was so busy that she forgot about it.
The navigator said that she would give up Akivelli's room to Lu Qi, but Akivelli had not yet cleaned it up.
It seems... it's about time to clean up.
Akivelli scratched his cheek, switching between doing his work and following Lu Qi behind her to look at her impatient expression.
Just like placing an interesting little game in front of a person who is about to work, Lu Qi's every move is full of temptation to Akivali.
In fact, it was not only Achievelli who thought so. The unknown passengers on the train all liked this cute little white dragon.
It's nothing, she's just really fun to tease.
Whether it's an angry expression, a speechless expression, or an annoyed expression... In short, it's so cute.
Who would refuse Longlong who is as white as snow and as cute as a kitten!
"Okay, I'll go clean up your room then."
Akivelli ran away quickly. Lu Qi, who was left behind, was stunned for a moment and finally remembered what was going on.
Her room was in the destroyed carriage, and was attacked by the gem crystal lizards.
At present, her bed, her collection of gems, and her wardrobe have all been destroyed, and the matching jade accessories have been eaten into pieces all over the floor.
Lu Qi took a deep breath and tried to calm his anger.
No, I can’t stand it!
"Achivelli, you bastard, pay me back!!!"
***
The train will jump again soon, but there are still some things to be done before the jump.
For example, you need to decide your next location before jumping.
In fact, there is no location to speak of. It is simply a matter of choosing a direction to jump, which is decided by the train conductor Pam through voting.
Because there are so many anonymous passengers on the train, there are often disagreements.
The voting process was also lengthened considerably.
This was Lu Qi's first time experiencing a train jump vote, but she didn't know what there was to argue about.
Isn't it just a choice of left, right, or forward...
Akivali didn't quite understand it either, but he liked the hustle and bustle, so he would always hang out among the crowd, acting as a troublemaker that everyone hated.
Having been despised so much, he could only sit next to Lu Qi with a bag on his head.
"Oh, how difficult it is," Achievelli sighed. "The human mind is so difficult to guess."
"It's not your fault," Lu Qi said firmly. "You should do more human work—and is the room cleaned up?"
"It's all packed," Akivelli said languidly. "The sheets have been changed, and the pillows and dolls are from your room. As for your gems... I'll make you some more when we find the Gem Star."
"It has to be nice-looking." Lu Qi said.
"Of course, I'll try to make you a Pam jade pendant."
Lu Qi: “?”
This guy likes Pam too much!
But Pam’s jade pendant…it’s not impossible, Pam is really cute.
The train conductor is respected by everyone, but because he is so furry and popular, there are always unknown passengers who want to pick up the train conductor without thinking when they get on the train.
Under the train conductor's frantic protests, the train finally added a rule that the train conductor cannot be harassed at will.
Of course, many times, train rules are just something written on paper.
After all, Pam forbade unauthorized personnel from entering the dining car's kitchen, but Akivelli always disregarded this rule and took Lu Qi in to eat secretly from time to time.
At the last review meeting, Pam cursed Akivelli and Lu Qi in front of everyone, calling them the reincarnations of starving ghosts.
Of course, the original words are not like this, but you can understand the meaning.
In short, because of Akivelli's efforts, Lu Qi was also disliked by Pam.
As soon as Pam saw the two guys hanging out together, she knew something was wrong.
The intense voting process finally ended, and Pam finally decided on the route to go forward. Just as the train was almost fully replenished, they began to determine the jump route.
There is not much change between the time of the jump and the future, and the notification is still in the form of broadcast.
They changed places in the blink of an eye. Except for those who were dizzy from the jump, everyone else adapted very well.
Looking outside the car, the starry sky in the universe actually looks similar, all pitch black.
Only the light shining from the planets is different.
Exploration nowadays isn't as easy as it will be in the future, where we don't know what the world beyond will be like, or even have relevant information. Currently, all the places we've explored are completely dark, and we don't even know if the new world has civilization or humans, or if it's suitable for human exploration.
Before that, the train needs to explore planets that have been calculated to be likely to have humans or living organisms.
Fortunately, the train's landing capsule has been repaired, and the three landing capsules have not been harmed by the group of gem crystal lizards bought by Akivali. After the repair, everything is fine.
However, there were limited spaces in the landing capsule and there were quite a few unknown guests, so when they held a meeting to decide who would land, they directly excluded Akivali and Lu Qi.
In response, Lu Qi began to protest.
"Although I can indeed land without a landing capsule, I haven't tried it. Why don't you let me try it?" Lu Qi voted against it. "I don't care. I want to use a landing capsule too."
Akivelli immediately raised his hand to speak.
"I want one too!" the pioneering star god, who was anxious for chaos in the world, said excitedly, "I want to ride in the landing capsule too!"
"Okay, I understand Lu Qi's opinion," the navigator said, ignoring the Star God jumping up and down. "But there's not enough space in the landing pod. Can you transform into a dragon?"
"Hmm? Of course," Lu Qi nodded, "Then who wants to hug me?"
She looked around and saw a group of unknown guests who were eager to join in and raised their hands to sign up.
"Me, me, me, Lu Qi, look at me, I took a shower today!"
"Who didn't take a shower today? You're so nervous about using this as a bargaining chip? Look at me, my belly is soft enough for you to lean on comfortably."
"Go away, all you stinky men, go away and let me do it!"
"Suck, suck, suck, little white dragon, come to your sister."
"Asshole, stop teasing Lu Qi like a puppy!"
The unknown guests were so enthusiastic that it made people feel uneasy. Lu Qi looked around and finally landed on a strange face in the corner.
He was the only one who did not join the others in making a fuss. When his eyes met Lu Qi's, he showed a friendly expression.
The smile is so relaxed...
Lu Qi wanted to choose him, but he didn't know him, so he could only pull the navigator aside and ask her in a low voice.
"Who is that person?"
"Which one?"
"That's the one in the corner, with black hair, black eyes, and a teardrop mole at the corner of his eye—hmm?"
"Dark hair?"
After Lu Qi looked over, the stranger's black hair had turned into a beautiful pink, and his eyes had also changed to the same color.
"Ah," she murmured, "now it's pink hair."
What a nice Mary Sue hair color!
