Chapter 754: Chapter 364: Setting Sail for the Ocean
"What are you talking about?" Li Ang’s voice sounded beside Meimei.
"Wow!" The girl was startled, then angrily looked at him. freeweɓnøvel.com
"How can you eavesdrop on others, such a pervert!"
Li Ang sighed, "I’m here to call you, everyone is going to find a place to rest."
The interior and exterior of the Fallen Island Battleship were a mess due to Jenoside’s destruction, the power system was damaged by high-pressure output, and the resting rooms, originally for many at the Shadow Shipyard as well as Li Ang and these guests, were temporarily unusable. Everyone urgently needed rest, so they went to look for a place to rest.
"Hmm? Why do you think we are traveling together? I never said I wanted to join your Sky Cavalry."
"Then are you leaving with the Water Dragon?" Li Ang pointed toward the horizon.
"That also, that... she, she wants me to protect the newly born Sea Serpent Ancestor by your side."
Meimei was taken aback, then looked dejected.
Li Ang smiled at her, but without knowing why, he seemed to have offended her in some way, the girl stamped her foot lightly, opened her mouth, but didn’t say anything.
She seemed indecisive and hesitant, vacillating between decisions.
Li Ang scratched his head, perhaps this was the real her beneath the "Former Savior" façade, shaped by the continuous failures of the entire Nebis in her timeline.
"Let’s go."
Li Ang had already seen Farina leading the girls towards the south, where there were reportedly many luxurious hotels, now vacant. They slowed their pace, waiting for Li Ang from a distance, and he lifted his foot to follow.
Meimei followed step by step behind him, finally finding a topic to discuss after a moment.
"That dragon, isn’t it the ’Star Soul Prototype Bahamut’ mentioned on Mengze Island?"
"Yes."
"That’s unbelievable. Although the Water Dragon said that the Creator God would send down different incarnations during major events, the City of the Ship’s Rudder hasn’t reached that level. After all, even in events of the scale I encountered, I never saw any Bahamut.
"You managed to summon Him, yet afterwards, you all treated it so lightly. The more I think about it, the more unbelievable it is."
"When we heard the news from Farina, we also found it incredible. It’s not that we treated it lightly, but we were already shocked."
"This isn’t the first time, which makes it even harder to understand."
Li Ang slowed his pace a bit more, walking alongside her, looking at her calmly.
Meimei cautiously moved a little further away: "Wha, what?"
"Since you’re already a partner and witnessed Zoe’s mysterious summoning with your own eyes, there’s no harm in telling you."
"What do you want to say?"
"The last summoning was accomplished with the help of Ivynis, the Empire Witch you mentioned."
Li Ang found it difficult to explain to Meimei, or anyone, why Ivynis appeared on Spark Island in such a strange manner and assisted him.
The four team members were naturally curious about it, and he had explained it before, yet strangely their acceptance of it was strong, especially Zoe, who seemed to inherently believe that helping Li Ang through time and space was normal. He could only attribute this to their trust in him.
"Ah, that’s also one of the things I find unbelievable."
Meimei clenched her fist: "It was odd on Mengze Island, your team member Zoe, isn’t she a similar figure to the Empire Witch? It’s just I had no contact with Diana in the original world, so I didn’t react at first."
"Since we’re at this point, you should have realized that their abilities are derived from a special constitution, Ivynis wasn’t inherently evil either."
"I..."
Meimei massaged her forehead, thought for a while, and then smiled wryly.
"Who am I to criticize anyone? I’m the most useless one in this battle."
"You were still of help."
"Where did I help?" Meimei’s face showed a shy expression.
"In various places more or less, who asks others to point out where they’re useless?" Li Ang said. freёwebnovel.com
At these words, the white-haired girl was taken aback and whispered softly, "Perhaps that’s just me."
Li Ang didn’t say anything further, walking forward, while the girl’s pace slowed, falling behind.
At the high point of the City of the Ship’s Rudder, two small Flying Airships were parked.
They bore some scars, but nothing serious, just grazed by projectiles on the edge of the dangerous battlefield, ready to fly at any time.
"Whoa, City of the Ship’s Rudder, just came to make some money, didn’t expect to become one of the Legendary." Lindson, lying on one Flying Airship’s pilot seat, sighed alongside Gell.
"Legend? We just watched from the side, being mentioned is already nice." Gell said.
"Don’t belittle yourself, rescuing people is still a big help, no?"
Lindson noticed something off in the tone of his friend and rival, sat up: "What? Our ever-confident ace, has your confidence taken a hit?"
Gell remained silent.
Lindson knew he hit the spot, laughed: "Don’t overthink it, beast-eared young girl, you never had a chance from the start. You haven’t been to the Flashing Field, you can’t keep up with her speed. And didn’t you see the way that leader captured those Empire remnants in the end?"
"I saw it."
At the moment the giant Demon was about to self-destruct, the sky suddenly manifested a Divine Spirit-like Purple Gold Giant Dragon, its azure breath completely erasing the vile Demon’s traces.
But when the Dragon vanished, only a few noticed a Flying Airship quietly rising into the high sky as the Demon’s former battleship body disintegrated, taking advantage of everyone’s focus on the writhing, explosive Demon flesh to make a getaway.
