Chapter 134 Becoming an Unknown Guest
A dragonborn girl from the future, smiling like a mischievous joker.
At that moment, Akivalli thought he saw Aha II.
"Huh, really?"
Akivelli asked curiously, his golden eyes shining brighter than the sky.
Lu Qi couldn't help but laugh even louder.
"Hahahahahaha… What's your reaction?"
Akivali didn't understand her joke and touched his hat.
"Did I ask a strange question?" He asked confusedly. "What's the funny thing?"
"Because your reaction was unexpected?"
"...Lu Qi, you really look like Aha like this."
That's how Ahaha is. When the Joyful Star God is doing things, what he likes to see most is humans' reactions that are completely different from normal situations.
"He and I are different," Lu Qi restrained his laughter and began to complain, "I don't want to see everyone's reaction... At least right now, I only want to see yours."
Akivelli thought for two seconds and asked slowly.
"So, the reaction you expected from me was...?"
"Surprised? Angry? Or maybe unbelieving?" Lu Qi shrugged. "Anyway, it's different from now."
The girl with white hair and golden eyes is like a little snowman covered with frost in the wind and frost.
She stood just outside the drop pod, frost and snow falling over her hood.
Heavy snow fell from above her head, and strands of snow fluttered and gathered in the folds of her raised collar.
Her eyes were curved, revealing half of her lips raised.
"Achivelli, you are so strange."
"What kind of strangeness do you mean?"
Akivelli stepped out of the landing capsule, and the hatch automatically closed after he stepped out. The metal capsule disappeared into the snowflakes, like a protruding white bulge.
"Everything is weird...you asked me if it was true."
"So... is it true?"
"you guess?"
The dragon girl who kept the secret at the critical moment seemed a bit hateful. Akivelli chased after her and asked questions, determined to get the truth.
Lu Qi teased him for a while, and finally walked shoulder to shoulder with him on the white snow.
If measured by footsteps, there is still some distance to those transparent fortresses, and she can slowly tell some stories about herself.
***
Lu Qi was born in an ordinary family.
Ordinary, not particularly wealthy, but never worried about money either. Seriously... on the verge of middle class?
She was not very clear about her family's assets, she only knew that she was her parents' beloved daughter and their most precious treasure.
Suddenly one day, she fainted at school and was sent to the hospital for examination. The doctor said she was becoming weak.
Why weaken?
No cause was found.
It was as if her organs suddenly went on strike and the cells that made up the individual "Lu Qi" began to rebel. She was inevitably heading towards death.
Compared to the bewildered Lu Qi, the first people to feel the pain were the two people who loved her the most.
She tried hard to smile in her limited life and lived like a normal person, but in the dead of night, she would bury her head in the pillow and cry.
Why her?
She is still so young, in her prime, yet she has not seen the world properly, and has not even made any contribution to society.
In the eyes of her relatives and friends, she is just a child who has not yet stepped out of the ivory tower.
That night, after she finished crying, she went to wash her face. She passed by her parents' room, saw a faint light, and heard sobbing sounds.
Some people are sadder than her.
Lu Qi doesn't want to die.
Perhaps because she prayed too loudly, a strange app suddenly appeared on her phone.
Lu Qi thought, as long as they weren't trying to scam her out of money, it would be okay to click in and take a look.
Then she caught hope.
The strange APP brought her to a completely unfamiliar world. She began to forget the pain in reality and looked at the world happily as if she had been reborn.
It doesn't matter, at least she saw scenery that others had never seen.
Lu Qi did not take the task too seriously. What she wanted more was to enjoy her new life and meet new friends.
"Hmm... so after you died of illness, you became a dragonborn?" Akivelli asked hesitantly.
What He said was so blunt, so blunt that there was no trace of emotional intelligence.
Lu Qi rolled his eyes, raised his long white dragon tail, and pressed down Akivali's hat from behind.
The gray-haired, golden-eyed star god's vision was completely obscured by his hat, and he struggled to free his head and face from the hat.
"You're the one who died," Lu Qi said unhappily, "I'm alive and well."
Of course, the story told to Akivali could not be the whole truth. Lu Qi really wanted to talk about his past.
But I won't be stupid enough to tell everything.
Mainly because it's difficult to explain...
So the version Akivalli heard was that Lu Qi was originally an ordinary person, but because of some adventures, he gained the ability to travel through time.
She gained the favor of the Star God and was reborn.
There are many people like Lu Qi in the universe, and even Akivali has saved some dying humans.
This is also another form of rebirth.
"Then your dragon horns and tail..."
"This is the Immortal Star God's masterpiece," Lu Qi casually announced the bombshell, "To be precise, He created this body of mine from scratch."
"...Ah," Akivali suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "So, He is your 'father'?"
"...No." Lu Qi said reluctantly.
Fortunately, Akivali did not continue to ask questions, otherwise Lu Qi really didn't know how to save the situation.
How should I tell Achievelli that the Immortal Star God not only forced himself to be her father, but later his "fatherly love turned sour" and he became her boyfriend?
Oh, now he can be said to be an ex-boyfriend.
"Okay, you're asking too many questions," Lu Qi stopped talking and chose to avoid the topic. "You're the first person to know my secret... I've never told anyone else."
"Uniqueness" was so attractive that Akivali wanted to continue asking, but after hearing what Lu Qi said, he immediately took back the rest of his words.
That's enough.
After selectively discussing some of Lu Qi's past, it was now Akivali's turn.
Akivelli thought for a while, but didn't know what to say.
The memories before becoming a god are still there, but they are really mediocre.
The joy of pioneering almost overshadowed His past, making it not even worth mentioning.
"What kind of place is Pegana?"
"Isolated from the world?" Akivali said simply, combining his words. "If there's anything different... it's probably that there are many gods."
"That's very different, isn't it?!"
"Hahahaha, really? But I've been to a world somewhat similar to this before... The races on the upper planets are so powerful that they're practically gods to the humans on the lower planets. So they're worshipped and can even increase their powers based on the power of faith."
“But I haven’t seen it.”
"Hmm," Akivali pondered, "then I'll take you to see it later?"
"after……"
This guy, Akivali, was like a riddler, only telling half of what he wanted to say. He clearly had no intention of revealing his entire past and was still trying to paint a rosy picture for Lu Qi.
Lu Qi went over and kicked His calf.
"Then let me ask you another question," Lu Qi said, "Before you became a pioneering star god, were you a human?"
Was Akivalli human?
The gray-haired, golden-eyed Star God blinked, his long black eyelashes as thick as crow feathers, his smile unchanged.
"Well... does it count or not?"
"What's the meaning?"
In the isolated world of Pegana, all humans were created by gods.
The same is true of Akivalli.
There are some structural differences between Him and "ordinary humans".
But as a creation of God... they should be considered human beings, right?
"It's a bit hard to explain," He said distressedly, "The body doesn't count, but the mind does... How should this be divided?"
Akivali's words were too difficult to understand, so Lu Qi gave up.
This guy is just like Aha, he never says anything he doesn't want to say.
Lu Qi turned around and left angrily. Just as she was about to step into the elevator, she left Akivelli outside.
"Hey...wait for me, I haven't gone in yet!"
Akivali rushed over and entered before the door closed.
There was a moment of silence in the elevator. Akivelli poked Lu Qi, who was motionless, and asked her in a low voice.
"Are you angry?"
"Hmph." He asked knowingly.
Lu Qi's temper lasted for quite a long time. After she went to the underground city and delivered the boundary anchor, she ran away without saying a word.
Akivelli could only run after her.
"Lu Qi, don't walk so fast..."
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to keep it to myself."
"Would you mind me for a moment?"
Achieveri was too noisy, like an overly clingy cat. He was noisy when Lu Qi was working, noisy when she was resting, and even when she was lying on the bed in the carriage, she could still hear the sound of Achieveri scratching at the door.
Lu Qi: “…”
"Stay away from my door!"
"But this is my room..."
"It's mine now, get out."
The crazy Akivalli would always make Lu Qi angry and then coax her into peace.
Lu Qi's temper came and went quickly. In fact, she was not really angry, she just felt it was unfair.
She had said so many things, why didn't Akivali exchange with her?
It turned out that she only knew some things about Achieveri... That's not right. Who wants to hear about Achieveri's pioneering stories? There are plenty of them in think tanks. If she wants to read them, won't she look up the information?
Lu Qi and Akivali were in a cold war, and the one who was happiest was Aha.
As a spectator, Ah Ha jumped wildly between the two sides. On one side, he and Lu Qi fought against the villain Akivelli; on the other side, he gave Akivelli advice on how to tame the little white dragon's fur.
Akivali: "But Lu Qi is a dragon, and dragons only have scales and manes, right?"
Aha: "Mane is also hair, just tell me whether it exists or not."
What the Joyful Star God said made sense, but the idea he proposed was not very reasonable.
What does it mean to put eighteen exploding balloons in the room where Lu Qi lives now? Does Aha want Lu Qi to tie him to eighteen balloons and release him into outer space?
Akivelli rejected the suggestion.
Unexpectedly, Aha finally did this.
When the first balloon exploded, Aha's cry also rang out.
"Let me explain—"
"Go to hell and repent!"
Akivali swore that he had never heard Lu Qi's voice so angry. Even when they were in a cold war, there had never been such a big noise.
He saw many unknown guests popping up from unknown places, watching Ah Ha being neatly tied up by Lu Qi with the rope of the balloon as if to watch the fun.
Aha was beaten by Lu Qi.
The nameless guest was beaten black and blue by the little white dragon.
The door to her room was open, and she could see the messy bed and the burnt debris on it.
Even the small backpack that Lu Qi kept aside and rarely left behind had a corner burnt.
Looking more closely, Lu Qi's room was very messy.
All the things she had carefully stored away in the hole in her backpack burst out and filled up the bedside.
It seems that the backpack was blown open... causing the storage effect of the cave to be ineffective.
Lu Qi was extremely angry.
She was packing her things when suddenly Aha came running over and said he wanted to give her some gifts and promised to cheer her up.
Lu Qi was still wondering what this kid was up to. What good stuff could Aha give him?
Unexpectedly, as soon as she took it, the balloon began to multiply.
Forget about reproduction, she just moved casually and hit the balloon.
It's okay if the balloon bursts, but Aha can just pay for the damaged items.
If Ah Ha doesn't have the money to pay, she plans to ask this group for compensation when she meets the Masked Fool in the future.
They said it was the work of Aha, the star god they believed in, and if they didn't give them compensation, they would turn their base, the "tavern", upside down.
Someone will always pay for it.
But Lu Qi didn't expect that the first person to be injured would be her baby.
She! The backpack cave that I finally made!
It's broken now!
Lu Qi became even angrier.
She collected the remaining exploded balloons and tied them neatly around Aha.
When Ah Ha was pushed out of the room, there were unknown guests everywhere watching the fun.
No one wanted to offend Lu Qi at this time, after all, she looked too angry...
Only the nameless guest, who was on good terms with Walu, spoke weakly and asked in a low voice.
"Lu Qi...where are you taking Walu?"
Lu Qi stopped when she heard that, she turned her head and showed a sinister smile.
"I'm going to launch Him into outer space... What, do you have any objections?" she said, "Or... do you want to take His place?"
The nameless guest who asked the question was horrified. He immediately shook his head frantically to indicate that he did not mean that. He even made way for Lu Qi to pass safely.
Facing the poor and bound Walu, the nameless guest simply showed a sympathetic expression and then made a big cross on his chest.
Oh, I hope Varu survives after being set free.
The bustling Starry Sky Train, in a new world, a new day, saw new scenes.
The anonymous passengers who witnessed all this watched this special "fireworks" from the best position in the observation car.
Outside the window, the vast, dark night sky lit up with extremely bright colors.
Those colors are more touching than the neon lights flashing in the dark night of a bustling city.
"BOOM——"
The fireworks turned into Pam's appearance, and the grand fireworks outside the car window were very sincere.
In the observation car, an unknown passenger was taking photos.
"Even though I've traveled through countless worlds, witnessed the sun's fall, and humanity's dawn of a new day..."
"Can you speak human language?"
"What haven't I seen? Oh... I really haven't seen this before."
***
This special planet actually doesn't have many places for the unknown visitors to observe during the exploration.
On the other side of the ice, there are many traces of human activity.
Oh, and there are even some ancient ruins there.
The historians among the unknown guests were ecstatic about this. They loved to see traces of civilization. What a joy it would be if they could restore a lost civilization from it.
On the other side of the fire, the existence of the dragon clan is even simpler.
Although the fire dragon has certain similarities with Lu Qi's genetic makeup, it is an uncivilized creature in terms of intelligence.
There is some discussion on the strength value.
The temperature of the flames on the other side was too high, and the nameless guests needed to make some thorough preparations if they wanted to find a good place to explore.
This shows the importance of Interstellar Peace Company.
With the existence of the company, the unknown guests would at least not recklessly use their own bodies as bets to gamble on those possibilities.
They can make good preparations before the expedition so that they won’t be killed right after landing.
"Where did the saying 'killed on landing' come from?"
"What? You haven't played the FPS games that are so popular lately?"
"ah?"
"It's a new game developed by Interstellar Peace. It's a first-person shooter survival game, the kind where only one person out of 100 survives—but the victory conditions are quite demanding, so they've recently been optimized and switched to a team-based mode."
"...I didn't ask you what game you were playing!"
Amidst the laughter and cheers, the exploration of the fire surface also began.
The nameless guests have long learned to cooperate with the outside world rather than bravely venture into the new world on their own.
This is cause for celebration.
The fire was too hot and Lu Qi was too lazy to go down.
Her attributes are water and ice, and she is naturally incompatible with fire... Although she can actually control some fire, it is more convenient for her to use the water team.
After all, you can't use fire when sweeping the floor, right?
There is no fire in the air...but there is a little water if you squeeze it.
Akivelli wanted to persuade Lu Qi to go down and play with them, but she ignored him and did not accept his invitation.
"No," Lu Qi refused ruthlessly, "I don't like fire... I won't go."
Akivali's persuasion was in vain, so he had to go alone.
Ah Ha wanted to take the opportunity to stay with Lu Qi. Ever since he blew up Lu Qi's small backpack last time, Ah Ha has been unwelcome.
Lu Qi couldn't think of another way to punish Him, so he could only simply ignore Him.
Unfortunately, Aha's little tricks were finally defeated by Akivali. The gray-haired star god grabbed Aha's collar and took him away.
Aha went from struggling at the beginning to half-heartedly giving in.
Well, it's nice to play with Akivalli.
The noisy guys have all gone out, and those who stay are not too quiet.
Even the observation car had people from the Interstellar Peace Company.
By the way, at this point in time, is the development of the Star Train actually so closely connected to the company...
No wonder when she asked Miss Jizi about the source of funding for the train, she only mentioned that they had a cooperation with the company.
Yes, although the train as a means of transportation uses pioneering destiny as "fuel", it can meet the needs of leapfrogging.
But it is precisely because of the development that the operation of trains will be restricted in the future.
After the incident with Pinocchio was over, she heard Miss Himeko's distressed voice.
The train's "fuel" is not powerful enough to support only a few jumps. The train needs to keep traveling to new worlds to replenish the energy.
Although the research of Interstellar Peace Corporation can provide some additional information...it is still not enough.
There are so many worlds that have been explored, which is always a hidden danger for the Star Train.
Lu Qi was sitting in the observation car, and his seat was just right for him to see through the transparent car, and see the new planet that seemed to be very close in front of him.
White and red are intertwined, and the strange planet has beautiful colors.
From a distance, it looks like a fireball burning in the snow.
The expedition to the fire surface lasted for more than half a month. The train stayed long enough for the fire dragon to be given an official name.
Salamander Fire Dragon.
A more detailed classification requires more research, and Lu Qi has no interest in people who are not of the same race.
She was more concerned about the underground city on the ice.
The electronic girl who calls herself Xiao Q is obviously a person with her own thoughts. She should not be simply summarized as an intelligent AI or a robot.
The people on the train were also worried about Xiao Q's whereabouts.
The little guy is very stubborn and what he often does is to get humans to stay and develop in this city.
The electronic girl promised that she would accompany humans forever and provide them with the resources they needed.
As long as it is on this planet, she will find a way to find it.
There is no need for humans to be busy or explore. Just wait quietly in the underground city and you can get whatever you want.
After Lu Qi knew about it, he gave a brief comment.
"Didn't you wake her up when you beat her last time?"
"Little Q was simply beaten into obedience, not that he agreed with our ideas."
"Um... okay."
Mechanical creatures are still different from humans. If you want her to continue thinking deeply, it seems that the only way is to replace the chip.
Akivelli suddenly raised his hand to speak.
"Why not send her to school?" Akivelli suggested sincerely. "I remember that Omnic and the company reconciled, and they even jointly organized some activities... including academic education, right?"
The others looked at each other.
"That makes perfect sense. All stubbornness stems from a lack of experience. Akivelli's move was too ruthless."
"Then how do we convince Xiao Q to go to school?"
That's easy then.
Little Q’s IQ is actually not high enough. Although he has tried very hard to evolve, he still puts humans first.
The unknown guests, led by Miss Navigator, set a trap for Little Q and successfully made the electronic girl take the initiative to talk about learning and evolving.
The remaining Charmander, and the overly old but calmer robot...
The robot, which is different from Xiao Q, has not yet had a name, but it thinks more deeply than Xiao Q.
His pursuit is different from Xiao Q's.
A robot that can save lives in times of crisis and raise the difficult-to-raise Charmander is definitely not a good thing.
On this planet, Charmander is not accepted by its tribe members. It is itself an abandoned "defective product" and cannot communicate and coexist with other machines.
For it, there is only one choice.
"I don't want Xiaohuo to stay on this planet," the robot said simply, "So, can I become an unknown guest with it?"
