Chapter 118 Planet Giant Tree
The happy time of solo exploration has passed, and Lu Qi received a gathering message from the navigator, saying that there was a major discovery.
Akivelli and Aha are now her two followers, following her wherever she goes.
Lu Qi wanted to meet up, and they followed behind.
Perhaps because they were beaten up by Lu Qi before, the two star gods now seem to be much more obedient.
The outward manifestation is that he will not steal or cause trouble for her on the way back.
After returning to the Nameless Guest's base camp, she found that most people had rushed back.
The navigator began to check the safety of the unknown guests by looking at the list. The moment she saw Lu Qi, a gentle smile appeared on her face.
But when he saw Akivali behind him out of the corner of his eye, his face fell.
"Achivelli!"
The Pioneering Star God responded nonchalantly, and in front of everyone, he began to take off his hat and took out his "trophies" from the hat.
Fruits bitten by unknown creatures, berries nearly squashed, huge bananas, tall bushes, even giant wings with a small piece of flesh missing, and hard shells shed by creatures—
Even Lu Qi didn't know when He found it.
A large number of items were piled up in the camp, squeezing the space.
The other unknown guests had experienced similar scenes before and stood on the edge watching before Akivali stopped.
Few people can keep up with Akivali's style of doing things. After all, his physical fitness is different from that of ordinary people, so the arrival of Xiaobailong makes up for this.
Although the unknown guests would secretly complain that Akivali was too much like a bully for monopolizing the White Dragon and not letting anyone else get involved.
But everyone agreed that they should team up together.
Well...but now, there is a newcomer who is not very tactful.
The newcomer was also trying hard to take out the things he had brought with him from his "pioneering" journey. Unfortunately, he did not have the convenient props like Akivalli and Lu Qi, and he had very few things left on him.
"Achivelli, how did you make your hat?" the newcomer asked boldly. "Can you make one for me too?"
The onlookers couldn't help but let out a "wow".
In fact, when normal people discover that there is a star god on the train, their initial attitude is respectful.
After all, this is a star god. In most people's worldview, star gods should be respected.
Even though Akivali played with mortals, he was still the god that the unknown guests relied on.
Their change in attitude towards this Star God was mostly due to the passage of time.
If you read more of Achievelli's embarrassing stories, most of your fearful respect for him will disappear, and you will be able to call him by his name as if nothing happened.
This is the first time for the newcomers to come into contact with Akivali... What exactly happened when they formed a team?
The eyes of the unknown guests fell on another person at that time.
Lu Qi didn't care about her two companions at all. She excitedly rushed to the chef's seat and took out a tightly wrapped large beehive from her backpack.
"Chef, look what I brought back!" Little White Dragon's pointed ears twitched with joy, and even his golden pupils sparkled with light. "Top-quality wild honey—I want to eat honey cake!"
Chef Wumingke opened the outer layer of leaves and his expression changed immediately when he smelled the sweet aroma.
He no longer cared about Lu Qi's frequent sneaking into the kitchen with Akivali to eat food, and smiled pleasantly.
"Good stuff!" The chef patted the beehive. "Wait, I'll make you a cake after I'm done with it."
"I have a small request..."
"Tell me, I'll agree to it as long as it's reasonable."
"Can you teach me how to make honey cake?"
Akivelli, who was taking out the items he had brought back, heard the request keenly.
I immediately think of what Ah Ha threatened Lu Qi to agree to.
He was not very happy.
This guy Ah Ha is really shameless. Perhaps it is because he has no face at all, so he can say such shameless words with a clear conscience.
Even Akivali himself had never eaten anything made by Lu Qi... No, He wants some too!
Akivelli stopped what he was doing and quickly moved over.
"Do you want to make a cake?" Akivali stretched out his hand and pressed it on Lu Qi's shoulder. His movements were quick and natural, as if he had done it countless times. "I want one too."
Lu Qi slapped Akivelli's hand away without even turning back.
"Go talk to Aha."
Lu Qi is so cruel.
Akivali thought resentfully, and then used his entanglement method.
When he is annoying, he is really annoying. Lu Qi pushed Achivelli's face away while chatting with the chef about what kind of jam to put on the honey cake.
After watching the excitement, the other unknown guests have begun to divide up the "spoils" brought back by Akivali.
Their Star Gods didn't have a collecting habit, and what they brought back were basically things the nameless guests needed. Most of them were just things they saw and brought back, and when they did, they let those who needed them choose for themselves.
How to say it, he is very generous, and he also has the potential to be a star god and a symbol of the way.
But sometimes, especially now, seeing Him sticking to an innocent girl like a dog-skin ointment, I really want to call the police.
"What should we do? Should we stop Him?" The Nameless Guest looked at the pile of things and complained furtively while sorting them out, "He looks so perverted..."
"It's not the first day he's been perverted," the others said, not surprised. "If he can't stand it, Lu Qi will beat him up."
As soon as he finished speaking, the little white dragon over there couldn't stand it anymore.
She put down what she was holding, viciously wrapped her arms around Akivali's neck, and strangled him in anger.
The others looked at each other.
"Did anyone hear what they just said?"
"I heard it!" One of the anonymous guests raised his hand excitedly. "I heard Akivalli say, 'If you don't give me cake, I will crawl into bed in the middle of the night.'"
“…………”
“………………”
"…………What a pervert, Achievelli."
"Is this what a star god is like chasing people? I learned that."
"Don't learn this kind of thing!"
Lu Qi heard what the unknown guests said, but didn't take it seriously. She was still teaching Akivali a lesson for his outrageous remarks.
"What did you say?" Lu Qi put his arms around his neck. The poor Star God bent over and stood in a twisted posture. "Say it again?"
"…I'm sorry, I was just joking. Please forgive me."
The talkative pioneer star god was punished, and Aha just laughed on the side.
The cause was the "honey cake made by hand" that He had mentioned before. Unexpectedly, a casual exchange condition would lead to such an interesting development.
The newlyweds' hair turned a beautiful pink, and the romantic color was clearly visible among the gray and white.
The newcomer, not knowing the consequences, took out a rough jade pendant and waved it in front of Lu Qi.
"Look, I've finished it!" Ah Ha said happily, "Aha carved the mask."
The "gems" that Aha separated were said to be scraps, but in fact they were about the size of a palm.
But Aha is obviously not good at handicrafts. The gem material that was once the size of a palm has now become smaller than the palm and is still in the form of a flake.
It's also quite suitable to be used as a jade pendant to hold down the skirt, but the style is so ugly.
Ah Ha used the small scale carving knife given by Lu Qi to make the most obvious mask pattern on his body.
The narrow eyes curved in mockery, the smile full of cunning, and the round ball carved on the forehead for unknown reasons.
"...It's a bit ugly." Lu Qi said sincerely.
Aha pretended to be hit by an arrow in the chest, and retreated pitifully while holding his heart.
"You actually dislike something I made myself... Don't you love me anymore? My dear Lu Qi."
"Don't give me that. I've never loved you." Lu Qi exposed his disguise without hesitation.
Aha was sad, Akivli was smiling. Seeing Lu Qi's gaze move to him, Akivli gave him his gift with high spirits.
"Look!" Akivelli's craftsmanship was obviously much better than Aha's, but the size didn't match the "gem" material, and I didn't know how many were made. "Lovely Pam!"
Akivelli's proficiency was highest in making products corresponding to Pam.
He can create Pam-shaped terrain in the depressions of the planet, and he can also carve a statue of Pam at the ski resort. No matter whether it looks good or not, just ask if it is Pam.
The same goes for the accessories given to Lu Qi.
The long-eared rabbit has round eyes and a round head, and even looks like it's wearing a hat.
The conductor's uniform is always good looking, but the style of the hat looks a little familiar.
"Did you make this hat for Pam?"
"I made it custom," Akivali said honestly. "Does it look good? Can I make one for you?"
In fact, the Starry Sky Train had fixed uniforms at the beginning to ensure that when they went out, others could recognize them as members of the Starry Sky Train.
Of course, it's early days.
The main purpose is to distinguish the camps so that the nameless guests can have a support in the world.
Later, as the train grew larger and more people were on board, the train budget was also rapidly decreasing.
So the tradition disappeared.
Only Achieveri still had the clothes made at that time, but he rarely wore them, only the hat he always wore.
Mainly because he looks very handsome in a hat!
As for Pam... Pam has always been nostalgic. She collects items that she thinks are precious in her train room, most of which are gifts from unknown guests.
Akivelli had visited before and taught Pam to keep a diary.
Time will wash away everything, including the length of life, the bonds between nameless guests, and even their stories may disappear in the long river of history.
The reason why the nameless people are called nameless people is because they never think of leaving their names for a long time.
Unsung heroes, unknown pioneers... isn't that romantic too?
But there are always some people who remember the faces of every passenger and their hobbies.
In order to commemorate your current mood, writing a diary is also a good choice.
When Akivelli looked at Pam, his expression was always gentle. He stretched out his hand and covered Lu Qi's fingers that were touching Pam's accessories.
"Don't you want it?"
"...You're not going to ask Miss Navigator to overdraw my pocket money after I agree to this, are you?"
Akivali had an innocent look on his face.
"How could that be?"
Aha came over at this time.
"I want one too, I want one too!" The shameless God of Joy stuck his head between the two of them. "You can deduct my pocket money from my pocket money!"
"...Don't give Akivali the stick at a time like this!"
Akivelli changed his previous disgusted expression and patted Aha's shoulder with a smile.
"Good brother!"
Aha happily high-fived Him.
"Of course, I'm your good partner!"
Now that he had more pocket money to spend, Akivali straightened his clothes and set out to negotiate with the navigator with confidence.
I don't know what Akivali said to the navigator, but the navigator's rabbit ears flew up in anger, and she looked exactly like an angry Pam.
Lu Qi looked at it carefully and couldn't help but took out his camera to take a picture.
She found Pam's account and sent her a message.
[It's Little White Dragon, not Little White Snake: Pam No. 2 (pictured.jpg)]
Pam typed a question mark and sent a few Pam-specific emojis.
Lu Qi responded with an Achievelli-like silly smile.
The Starry Sky Train has its own internal network, and the train itself is a signal base station, so it can receive messages from many worlds.
It is precisely because of this that the Interstellar Peace Company was able to connect with the Starry Sky Train very quickly.
After all, expanding the company's scale requires the use of the silver rails used when the Starry Sky Train was developed. In order to obtain the right to use the silver rails, the company must pay a "patent" fee to the train every Amber Age.
This is one of the sources of funding for the train.
The amount is not small, but train maintenance is also a huge expense. In order to maintain a balance between income and expenditure and to deal with the unknown passengers who were causing trouble, the navigator pressed the calculator until sparks flew.
"You said Walu was going to overdraw his pocket money?" The navigator narrowed her eyes in disbelief, then said coldly, "He's a new passenger and hasn't made any contributions to the train yet, so naturally, there's no pocket money."
"That's not right, but Lu Qi got it as soon as he got on the car." Akivelli began to fight for it, even using Lu Qi as an example.
"How dare you say that?" The navigator glared at her. "Lu Qi gets pocket money because she saves medical resources on the train and can clean the carriages quickly. How can it be the same?"
“Eh…”
"Don't play dumb. If you didn't always take her out to play while she was working, her pocket money would be much more than this."
"Well, she's not irreplaceable, is she? After all, you guys are the same when she's gone."
"Haha, just say that to yourself."
Akivali's boomerang finally hit himself, and he returned with a heart scolded by the navigator and his pocket money gone.
"How?" Aha asked with interest.
This human body cannot hear sounds from too far away. The reason why he was able to follow Lu Qi was because of his determination to cause trouble.
And Lu Qi was flying in the sky, and the tall bushes could not block her direction.
"She said she didn't contribute to the train and doesn't have any pocket money for the time being."
"What? Ah Ha didn't make a cent?!" Ah Ha said in shock. "Don't those bees count?"
"Didn't you give it to Lu Qi? Use a honey cake."
“…”
So this is what the "exchange" of the Starry Sky Train is all about. No wonder Lu Qi agreed so readily.
It’s just a handmade cake, so there’s no need to think about it for too long.
She even pretended to be thinking to deceive Him!
Oh my god, Lu Qi is such a little liar!
Dear Little White Dragon Liar heard the voices of the two Star Gods and made a face at Aha happily.
"I'm willing to accept the loss."
At this point, Aha, who had made no contribution, could only admit defeat.
The survey results of the new planet came out. The unknown guest drove the starship around the planet and confirmed that there was no civilization. It was a completely uninhabited planet with abundant resources.
This area has good resources and is unowned, and there is no sign of any intelligent life in the vicinity of the galaxy.
New worlds and new planetary resources are also additional assets of the Star Train.
The navigator lady had a lot of work to do and assigned some tasks to others.
This was certainly a busy job. There were too many people on the train, plus the previously damaged carriages and the new passengers getting on from Yalilo... there were too many people.
The first thing to solve is the problem of rooms for the passengers.
As we all know, once there are more people, rooms become a problem. However, due to the large number of anonymous guests, nowadays basically no one has a room per person, except for some with high contribution values.
Even if the Star Train is fair, resources must be exchanged for "labor", which is a rule that overrides everyone else.
fair enough.
But besides being fair, we also have to solve the problem of insufficient carriages and rooms...
It just so happened that the train needed to temporarily "recharge" in the new world to absorb energy, so the navigator simply gathered the technical personnel on the train and prepared to let them build a few more carriages.
And making carriages requires some resources.
So she issued a mission to find minerals and other resources.
Aha changed his previous leisurely attitude and took on tasks diligently.
Akivali was forced to lead an expedition to the central part of the forest. According to the geographers' detection, there would be more new minerals there.
Because the crops and creatures on this planet vary in size, from giant birds to tiny insects and snakes, they can be seen everywhere, which poses a certain danger.
Lu Qi followed along as a casual and violent medic, and she had to put her progress in learning how to make honey cake on hold for the time being.
After Lu Qi and Akivelli took their people away, the head chef wiped the sweat from his face.
"...Oh my god, that ancestor who wasted food is finally gone."
How could there be someone who has no talent for making desserts!
It’s normal to make barbecues... The taste is also remarkable. It’s not delicious, but at least it’s not bad.
But once she gets involved in dessert making, she will transform into an inspirational warrior and add some strange things when the chef is not paying close attention.
What if she added too much sugar? Just add some salt to balance it out... Does she think the dessert will still taste normal? Don't ruin these top-quality ingredients!
The chef even wanted to beat her to roast bird eggs.
Look at how obedient Achieveri next door is. He can stare at the roasted bird eggs for a whole day...
He thought bitterly, wondering how long he would be tortured after Lu Qi came back.
Or maybe he could just take her with him to make honey cake, and then kick her out of his kitchen after he's done...
The despised Lu Qi knew nothing about it.
Her small backpack contained a lot of supplies for the expedition, including emergency antidotes and other supplies.
Although dragon's body fluids can indeed heal, they may not be able to detoxify.
...However, her blood is indeed useful. After all, abundant blood and flesh are the "cure" for all diseases.
Unless it is absolutely necessary, it is best not to let others drink her blood.
Among the group of people, only Lu Qi was flying.
Although Xiao Bailong is very good at fighting, she doesn't like sports. She would never walk if she could fly, and she would never stand if she could lie down.
The reason why they can see so clearly is because of Achievelli.
Their star god suffers from a very serious addiction to the Little White Dragon. As long as Lu Qi is around, he will definitely find ways to stick to him.
Then repeat the process of being beaten by the little white dragon.
Sometimes it looks like a cat lover sucking a cool kitten... exactly the same.
In the center of the primeval forest, there is a giant tree that is as tall as the clouds, blocking out the sky and covering all living things underneath.
Its hanging roots are so thick that they look like a continuous branch.
There were fluorescent creatures surrounding the tiny roots. When the nameless guests took a closer look, they found that the sap flowing from the giant tree was glowing with a fluorescent blue light, like some kind of mineral liquid.
Since it was an unknown object, the geographers and biologists discussed it together and forbade others to touch or move it, and they camped directly near the giant tree.
Lu Qi and Akivelli looked around to see if there were any dangerous creatures.
Apart from the tiny fluorescent plankton, there was not even a bird.
"There's something wrong with this tree," Lu Qi said firmly. She poked the roots of the giant tree. One of the small roots was thicker than her wrist. "It can't be some dangerous creature..."
"Tree man?" Akivelli continued.
"Hmm... not quite," Lu Qi said, shoveling some bark back with a small tool. "Let them analyze it."
The pioneering expedition advance team did not bring much supplies, and the observation environment was certainly not as simple as on the train, so it would take some extra time.
The sun is still shining, but under the cover of the giant trees, the light can only squeeze in through the gaps, and the brightness is touching.
Even the area around the camp was damp, and the huge fallen leaves had dried and rotted.
The giant tree was so huge that it made Lu Qi's scalp tingle, and he thought of that annoying thing Shuhu.
This planet must have been blessed with abundance...
Lu Qi took the bark back, and Wumingke had just finished his analysis. When he saw Lu Qi come back, he was still in deep thought.
"This ingredient... is a bit ominous."
"What kind of problems have you encountered?"
"There's a special energy," the Nameless Guest said cheerfully, "and the sap has an astonishing healing power. I asked others to help collect the fallen leaves, and they found that the fallen leaves were no different from ordinary leaves."
He looked up at the sky.
The giant trees that blocked out the sun were still swaying, and their huge leaves rubbed against each other, making a continuous rustling sound.
"Could you and Achievelli please go get a few leaves from up there?" the nameless guest asked. "Some that have been exposed to light, some that have not, and some that are half exposed to light and half not."
"...You've asked for a lot, but I'm a good person, so I received your request!"
