Qiong nodded lightly and said, "To be precise, it’s you and Akapa..."
"Akapa?" Sima Chuan asked in confusion. Wasn't Akapa no longer around?
"That's right. At that time, this battleship belonged to me and Akapa," Qiong said with a hint of pride. That battleship was the most famous creation of Sage Markett from planet DR-5, and it was also a gift prepared for his son. However, Qiong kept this to herself, and Akapa was unaware of it. Although Qiong had asked Akapa about the battleship, Akapa's memories of it were always vague, only knowing that it was Markett who had sent them to Earth aboard the battleship. As for the reasons behind it, Markett the Sage had never mentioned a word.
"I see. So only Akapa could find that battleship, right?"
"Yes, because Akapa has a way to locate the battleship."
"Then why not hide the battleship in some cave?" Sima Chuan felt that Akapa and Qiong should be able to protect the battleship well.
Qiong seemed to understand Sima Chuan's concerns and explained, "Because someone wants to master the technology of merging humans with machines, as well as the technology to create battleships. If someone acquires both technologies, they could take control of our planet. We can't guard the battleship forever since technology is advancing rapidly on our planet, just like the Shadow Legion."
"What is the name of the battleship?" Sima Chuan felt an inexplicable connection to this battleship, whether due to Akapa's memories or some other reason.
"The Noel Battleship," Qiong said proudly; he was the first to board this planet's finest Mechanical Soldier.
"Noel?" Sima Chuan softly repeated the name.
"Yes, that is the name of Markett the Sage's son."
After a moment of silence, Liu Feng excitedly asked Sima Chuan, "Chuan, can we go with you to find the battleship?"
"Yes, yes! We want to see it too!" others chimed in.
Sima Chuan looked at Qiong with a questioning gaze, but Qiong merely shrugged and said casually, "I don't mind; you can decide for yourself."
"Oh yeah!" a few of them exclaimed excitedly.
"Let's go, let's go, we need to hurry."
"I really want to see the legendary Battleship."
"Me too, me too! I can't wait to see what it's like."
However, Sima Chuan quickly doused their enthusiasm with cold water. "It's not time to look for it now; there are still some things that need to be taken care of. Once we're done with those, we can go find it. For now, we should just have some fun."
As soon as they heard that Sima Chuan wasn't going to go right away, the group fell silent, their heads drooping. But after a moment of thought, they began discussing where to play.
Qiong looked at Liu Feng and the others with surprise. Sima Chuan smiled and said, "It's fine; you'll get used to it."
"Really, even though I have high intelligence now, I still can't fully grasp human emotions. Humans are so fascinating!" Qiong muttered to herself. Sima Chuan just smiled and said nothing.
When Wei Mingjie heard that Sima Chuan was planning to have some fun, he couldn't hold back any longer. He had intended to enjoy himself anyway, and now he had the perfect opportunity. Wei Mingjie stood up and walked over to Sima Chuan, wrapping his arm around his neck and saying, "Sima Chuan, although I don't know if you have any money right now, we've been brothers for decades. Just look at me—I'm completely broke! So I'm handing over all my financial responsibilities to you."
"You two knew each other before?" Luo Mengqi asked curiously as she looked at the two men with completely different personalities.
"Sima Chuan is an orphan, you know?" Wei Mingjie asked with a smile.
Luo Mengqi nodded. Wei Mingjie continued, "Actually, I'm just like Sima Chuan; I'm also an orphan. I didn't want to go to any foster homes, so I wandered around aimlessly. That winter when I almost died, it was Sima Chuan who saved me."
"Oh, are you okay?" At that moment, Yu Qin popped up.
"Heh heh." Wei Mingjie patted his chest. "I'm not as fragile as you think. Even though I'm an orphan, I'm still living happily."
"Then can you stay here in the future?" Yu Qin suddenly asked this question, leaving Wei Mingjie puzzled. The others also looked at him with strange expressions.
"Ah." Yu Qin felt uncomfortable under their gazes and quickly explained, "I didn't mean anything by it. It's just that you've been wandering alone for so long; you need a place to settle down, right? Look, this place is great! With so many brothers and sisters around, you could be happy here too."
Wei Mingjie thought for a moment and said, "You have a point. Once I finish my business, I'll settle down."
"Really?" Yu Qin looked very happy.
"Mm-hmm."
"That's wonderful!" Yu Qin grabbed Wei Mingjie's arm. "Let's go out and have some fun!"
"Oh, okay." Wei Mingjie was thus pulled away in a daze.
Liu Qing tugged at Shang Qiong's sleeve and asked her, "Shang Qiong, do you think Yu Qin has changed her mind? She seems different now."
"Maybe she likes someone. Didn't you see how carefree Wei Mingjie is? Their personalities are somewhat similar; maybe they have a mutual attraction."
"Oh."
"Chuan, let's go too." Shang Qiong said as she linked arms with Sima Chuan.
Luo Mengqi, upon seeing this, snorted coldly and pulled on Sima Chuan's right arm. "Chuan, let's hurry up and go. I want to have some fun. And remember to buy me a gift! I was really satisfied with the last one; I can't wait to see what you get me this time." She pretended to be lost in thought.
Sima Chuan silently wondered, "When have I ever bought you a gift?" However, he couldn't voice his thoughts because Luo Mengqi had already grabbed his arm as she finished speaking.
The others followed suit and left. The collapsed wall was quickly forgotten by everyone.
A group of people made their way onto the street, bustling with energy. It was nearing noon, yet the number of people enjoying themselves had not diminished much.
As it was almost mealtime, they suggested grabbing a quick bite. At that moment, the girls became lively, buying various local snacks from here and there, filling several bags, which they then handed over to the boys. Sima Chuan and Wei Mingjie were fine with it, but Liu Chuan and the others found themselves in a predicament. Just looking at those snacks made them hungry, especially since they were being carried on their phones. So Liu Chuan and his friends decided to sample a bit under the pretense of testing if they could eat them. They were warned that they could only eat once they reached their destination; otherwise, it would embarrass the boys. Thus, the boys reluctantly took on the role of pack mules.
When they arrived at Emerald Lake, they chose a pavilion to drop off their things and began to feast and laugh, creating quite a lively atmosphere. After eating and drinking their fill, they started wandering around Emerald Lake. When boredom struck, one of the girls suggested renting boats to enjoy the scenery, mainly wanting to have some fun. They rented three wooden boats, with the boys doing all the rowing. There was no choice; after all, someone had to bear the burden.
The group wandered around here and there, playing and making noise until night fell. The night was just as lively; those who had stayed indoors earlier were now out and about. There was even a fireworks show that night with various performances, offering a different flavor compared to the daytime.
Occasionally, they would venture to an island where they built their own little houses and invited friends over to live the life they desired. The boys went hunting while the girls stayed behind—though some energetic girls tagged along because not everyone enjoyed quietude. During this time, Liu Chuan, Sima Chuan, and Wei Mingjie showcased their impressive survival skills in the wild, earning admiration from everyone.
At night on the island, they gathered around a bonfire for warmth and fun while enjoying the night view—a truly delightful experience.
Meanwhile, Sima Chuan and his friends continued living happily during these days. Lai Liqing and her group returned to Fucheng after two days of play to intensify their training because she always remembered her mission—to eliminate Sima Chuan so that he would never appear again.
