Kiana and the Captain's Bizarre Adventure

Chapter 28 The Center of the Starry Sea

Just as Walter was about to explain, Tingyun interrupted him.

"Alright, let's explain these things when we get to the Tianbo Bureau. Thank you for your protection along the way, Yunqi Army. Now you can all return to your units."

"But Miss Tingyun, is it really okay for you to follow these people of unknown identity?"

"Since they claim to be members of the Starry Sky Train, they probably won't easily tarnish their reputation. Moreover, if they truly have ulterior motives, given their strength, even the Cloud Cavalry might not be able to stop them if they wanted to kill someone to silence them."

The Cloud Cavalry present naturally knew what Tingyun had said, and after much deliberation, they finally agreed to Tingyun's request.

Firstly, they do need to return to their units as soon as possible. The military order had already been issued earlier, instructing all Cloud Riders to return to their units as soon as possible. If they hadn't encountered danger while stopping on the Cloud, they would have already returned to their units and were waiting for the next military order.

Secondly, as Tingyun said, it's impossible for them to stop the train crew from committing violence with their strength. It would be better to let Tingyun take them to the Tianbo Division first. Moreover, they have also installed a protective device on Tingyun. As long as Tingyun encounters danger, a barrier will be deployed to protect his safety and send out a distress signal. At that time, the Yunqi Army will surely arrive at the scene to protect him.

Therefore, after bidding farewell to everyone, Yunqijun left, and Tingyun began to lead everyone to the nearest dock.

"Although the specific situation requires your personal explanation to the Tianbo Bureau, please provide a brief overview so that I can speak more clearly when I go in to report."

“Mr. Walter, tell her the truth, except for some things that cannot be said.”

Kiana's voice rang in Welt's mind, and Welt instantly realized that this was the power of consciousness. Welt also understood what Kiana meant by what she said that could not be said.

Walter carefully organized his thoughts and began, "The reason we came here is because we were relatively close to the Noble Immortal Ship at the time, and just as we were preparing to jump, the Star Core Hunters appeared."

"Star Core Hunter?" Ting Yun raised an eyebrow and asked with slight interest.

"Yes, the news of the Star Core Crisis on the Immortal Ship was told to us by the Star Core Hunter. Her purpose is to have us come to resolve the crisis, and she claims that the real culprit behind this Star Core Outbreak is not the Star Core Hunter."

"I've heard about this before. Not long after the Star Core eruption, the Cloud Cavalry captured members of the Star Core Hunters. Now that I think about it, this might have been part of the Star Core Hunters' plan."

"Are Star Core Hunters really that amazing?" March 7th asked.

"It is said that there is a person within them who claims to be able to predict the future—Elliot. All their actions are instructed by Elliot. The strangest thing is that they can always arrive before the star core erupts. Because of this, people mistakenly believe that they are the ones who released the star core, and over time they have gained a lot of infamy."

"That's strange, is it really that amazing?"

"No one can say for sure. Perhaps Elio does indeed have the ability to know fate," Walter said, adjusting his glasses.

“Speaking of knowing destiny, I remember Mei once told me about this,” Kiana interjected.

"You mean the thirteen heroes she encountered back then?" Bronya asked.

"Thirteen heroes?" March 7th looked on with curiosity.

“They were warriors from a previous civilization in our world. For some reason, only thirteen of their strongest warriors survived, and they are collectively known as the Thirteen Heroes,” Kiana explained. “One of them can see a person’s destiny, and it is said that almost all the futures she predicted have come true.”

"You mean that Elio might be the counterpart of that hero?" Walter asked warily.

"It's hard to say, after all, I've never met her, and most importantly, we don't know Eriol either!" Kiana said.

"I apologize for interrupting your conversation, but we have arrived at our destination."

This is an empty dock, and in the distance, a wooden boat can be seen slowly approaching. Upon closer inspection, it can be seen that the boat is made from a single piece of wood; in other words, the entire boat was not assembled using any splicing techniques.

"This is our celestial vessel's means of transportation, called the Star Raft," Tingyun proudly introduced. "I won't go into the specifics of its workings; you, my benefactors, only need to know that this Star Raft is made using the most advanced technology available on the celestial vessel. Now, I will take you to the grotto-heaven where the Celestial Vessel Bureau is located."

With that, Tingyun went inside. Everyone looked at the Star Chariot, which clearly could only accommodate one person at a time, and fell into deep thought. It was only after Tingyun urged them that they gritted their teeth and reluctantly entered the Star Chariot.

Upon entering, everyone discovered that the interior was surprisingly spacious, not only fully equipped with instruments and equipment, but also not as small as it appeared from the outside. Tingyun smiled proudly as he looked at everyone's expressions.

"Don't be fooled by how small this star raft is, only able to carry one person. It actually uses cave-heaven technology, and the space inside has been expanded."

Kiana sensed the space around her and nodded in agreement.

"I didn't expect the Immortal Ship to have such technology. It must have used this technology to expand its space, right?"

"It seems this benefactor has an extraordinary perception of space!"

"Just call me Kiana, it just so happens that my abilities are more sensitive to space."

After that, the others began to introduce themselves one by one.

Not long after, the star raft slowly came to a stop.

"Everyone, we've arrived. This is where the Sky Ship Bureau is located, and it's also the dispatch center for all Starships, the center of the Starship Sea."

Led by Tingyun, the group arrived in front of a very solemn palace.

"My benefactors, this is the Tianbo Bureau. I will go in first to report the information, and then I will lead you inside. Please wait patiently outside."

After saying this, Tingyun turned and entered the Tianbo Division. Seeing this, Walter also led the others to a corner.

“This Miss Tingyun is really cunning. She seems to trust us, but she is secretly on guard against us at every turn.”

"Really? I didn't feel anything," said March 7.

Xing immediately retorted, "If you could detect it, it wouldn't be a matter of being on guard in the dark."

"Hey! You...!"

“Alright, March isn’t the time for joking around,” Walter interrupted their playful banter. “The most important thing now is how to explain our appearance.”

March 7th suggested, "If you ask me, why don't we just tell the truth? Anyway, we're upright and have nothing to fear."

The others echoed their agreement, saying that instead of making excuses and arguing, it was better to just tell the truth.

"Alright, then you all stay silent for now, and I'll negotiate with the higher-ups at Xianzhou."

Then, before Tingyun appeared, everyone returned to their original positions, and a short while later, Tingyun appeared before them.
