The preparations for the funeral rites are left to the young master himself. Next... she's going to use the young master's money to enjoy life in Liyue Harbor until those guys finish their scheming and infighting!
And so, another person, a "worldly wanderer," joined Liyue Harbor...
D'Artagnan, who was running back and forth between the Northern Bank and the docks to prepare the funeral rites for the deceased: "..."
So... was it really necessary for him to spend money to get the support of [Galaxy Baseball Man] in the first place?
With a box of Night Stones on his back, he watched Xing leisurely drinking "tea" and listening to opera, while openly telling the waiter to "send the bill to the Northern Bank".
For a moment, D'Artagnan began to question the meaning of life.
Is this... really true?
"Wait a minute?"
D'Artagnan looked again and, good heavens... how did Zhongli get there too?
What does it mean to send two bills to the Northern Bank?
A port laborer who was passing by had just finished a hard day's work when he suddenly saw D'Artagnan carrying a large box, staring intently at the bustling theater, and was immediately filled with emotion.
He walked over to D'Artagnan and gently patted him on the shoulder, saying:
"Child, you don't look very old. You're already here to earn money and support your family so early? Sigh... I was just like you back then, a newcomer to this port, knowing nothing, and longing for those bustling theaters..."
"Don't worry, everything will be alright. As long as you get through this difficult time, you'll definitely be able to see a show at the theater someday! Keep going!"
The laborer gave D'Artagnan a motivational speech, then gave him a thumbs-up, and brimming with positive energy, strode confidently toward the theater...
"..."
D'Artagnan put down the box in his hand without expression, but a slight wavering seemed to have occurred within him...
ten minutes later.
The Fools' subordinates took the heavy box, and under their puzzled gazes, Tartaglia seemed to have an epiphany, sitting directly between Hoshi and Zhongli, and also enjoying a cup of the very distinctive "Winter Solstice Flavor" tea...
Ok……
That's more like it!
"Waiter, send the bill to the Northern Bank as well! Sign it 'Young Master'!"
D'Artagnan waved to the attentive waiter, looking completely indifferent.
"okay!"
On either side of Dadalia, Zhongli and Xing nodded slightly, casting approving glances at Dadalia.
As expected of a young person, they really know what they're doing!
To winter, Northland Bank headquarters.
The wealthy man frowned slightly as he looked at the increasingly complicated bills.
"As expected of Liyue... Obtaining the Geo Archon's Divine Heart is indeed troublesome..."
Counting the bills sent by the "Young Master," various receipts for antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and entertainment venues...
The rich man shook his head with a sigh.
Surprisingly, the usually impulsive Ajax has become much more adaptable in Liyue, knowing how to bribe officials and build relationships. However…
Looking at some of the bills that cost millions, the rich man's lips curled into a cold smile once more.
"It seems this is all Liyue is like—insatiable... Morax, look at the people you've led..."
It's all for the Queen's grand plan... It's just a small amount of money, I'll pay it!
Ajax, don't let me down...
……
"Hmm, these are all top-grade Nightstone. Next, we'll need spices..."
Looking at the boxes of top-quality Night-blooming Stones, Zhongli nodded slightly.
"Spice? I'll have someone get it right away!"
"No rush... listen to this part."
"Haha, as expected of a refined gentleman! Alright, then let's hear another one!"
"Another milk tea, please! Same as always."
"Okay! I've been keeping track of the bill for you!"
"By the way, what is this? I don't think we ordered it, did we?"
"Oh, Paimon sent this over. Would you like to try some?"
"Oh? Your good friend? In that case, I won't stand on ceremony!"
"Hmm... Pfft!"
Chapter 102 The Immortal Ship People's Taste Buds are the Key to Longevity
We don't need to focus on Liyue for now; let's turn our attention to something else.
The train crew had already arrived at the Starship Sea Central Hub on their Starship, and with Tingyun's introduction, they successfully met the Sky-Riding Master. What followed was a series of "twists and turns".
Just as Xing said, it was true...
General Jingyuan and Lord Yukong played the good cop/bad cop combination.
If Welt hadn't been there, Kiana and March 7 alone would probably have been completely fooled.
After a few exchanges, the next step was successfully changed from "recovering star cores" to "hunting down star core hunters, restoring the train's reputation," and incidentally, making the Celestial Ship owe the Starry Sky Train a favor...
Even after leaving the Palace of Dawn, Kiana's eyes remained somewhat dazed.
Clearly, the power struggle among these "old foxes" is still too advanced for her, "Chiza Yuehai Yuyu Mao". Sigh... what a headache!
If Danheng were here, he would probably be somewhat wary of these old hands. As for March…
"As expected of the general of the Immortal Ship, he's so magnanimous! And he speaks so pleasantly! And look at that Sky Flyer... she's so fierce, no wonder she's only a captain now!"
Recalling the conversation that had just taken place in the Sichen Palace, March 7th suddenly became a little grumpy.
Clearly, the altercation between General Jingyuan and Lord Yukong... was quite pleasing to March...
Ah, how wonderful. She also longs to be carefree like March... It seems that she also had a period in the past when she was like March, not liking to think too much before doing things.
Later, she realized that it would only leave her with more regrets...
Kiana shook her head with a sigh, then led the still sulking Little March around the Sichen Palace.
As for Uncle Yang...
He said he went to look at hotels with that Miss Tingyun.
Seemingly sensing Kiana's initial wariness of Tingyun, and considering the PTSD everyone had about the word "hotel" back in Beloborg, the task of scouting the hotel was assigned to Welt to prevent any accidents.
Kiana and March were responsible for familiarizing themselves with the environment of the Fairy Ship and making plans for future activities.
So, the first step...
Kiana stood in front of the vending machine, lost in thought.
"So, why do the vending machines on Xianzhou only offer two types of drinks?"
Looking at the Lin Yuan Ice Spring and soda soy milk in the vending machine, March 7th was puzzled.
Are all immortal beings' tastes this strange?
Well, since we're already here, let's buy some first. Besides, Xing needs to send a case of soda soy milk, and we happen to have some here, so this way we can meet our quota ahead of schedule!
So Kiana and March 7 practically emptied the vending machine in front of them and stuffed all the Scale Abyss Ice Spring water into Kiana's imaginary space.
Next, Kiana took a small sip of the Scale Abyss Ice Spring, and it tasted no different from ordinary mineral water.
Is this just ordinary mineral water?
Out of curiosity, Kiana examined the ingredient list of the Lin Yuan Ice Spring in her hand.
The Lin Yuan Ice Spring is colorless and odorless, but...
"..."
"Seriously? This bottle of water has the same calories as a meal?"
Kiana's cheek twitched. The tastes of the people from the Immortal Ship... are truly peculiar!
"Mouth area!!!"
On the other side, March, who had just unscrewed the cap of the soda soy milk and taken a small sip, instantly vomited it all over the ground!
"March?"
Looking in the direction of the sound, one could see that March was clutching her own throat, her eyes filled with tears, as if she had eaten something unclean.
"Kouqu!!"
"What is this thing? It's sour and smelly! Ugh!"
Seeing this, Kiana could only gently pat March 7's back, trying to make her feel more comfortable.
As for the damage to the stomach and tongue... she currently has no ability to heal them and can't help with that.
Afterwards, Kiana and March bought some medicine at a pharmacy by asking passersby, opened a few treasure chests that no one paid attention to, and also picked up two delivery boxes.
Then, he casually tossed the bomb, which was said to be able to "destroy the entire Starship Sea Central Hub," into the imaginary space.
The lonely "bomb" adrift in the imaginary space remained silent, only silently conjuring a "praise of lofty morality," expressing its approval of Kiana's courageous act...
After Walter confirmed the hotel was safe and sent the address, Kiana took March back to the hotel to rest.
Having fought her way from the Star Chasing Sea to its central hub, and having gone through a series of empty promises and backroom deals, she was genuinely feeling quite exhausted.
After relaxing a bit on the hotel bed, I started chatting with other people in the chat group.
Kiana: "@Star, I bought your soda soy milk. Is it available for you right now?"
star:"!"
Xing, who had already returned to her hotel and was lying down drinking tea, replied instantly upon hearing this.
Xing: "That's so convenient! Send it over quickly!"
