Chapter 189: Alliance
"Knowledge... of what? What law? What?"
When Shibao heard that this seemed to be a new way of calling himself, he touched the back of his head in confusion.
Walter was also stunned for a moment, and then he reacted quickly.
After all, I have seen Himeko, Bronya, Cocolia and others, so it’s not surprising that there is someone who looks exactly like me, the Herrscher of Knowledge.
"Nothing...you are?"
Walter pushed his glasses and asked Shibao.
"I know treasures."
Shibao spread his hands and replied.
"Know treasure?"
Hearing this, Walter couldn’t help but look at the people behind Shibao.
"Uncle Yang, Shibao said before that she wanted a body, so I took her to the Industrial Manufacturing Division to get one."
"This appearance...was it designed by the Industrial Design Department?"
"No, I designed it."
"..."
Walter was a little speechless, always feeling that Xing was a little unusual. After all, before the two met for the first time, he hid aside to watch and heard the word "Honkai Beast" come out of Xing's mouth.
Maybe...he will know his own world, but now is not the time to ask.
"Oh? Is this a treasure identification? It's really changed."
Ji Zi walked over and looked at Shibao.
Upon hearing this, Shibao put his hands on his hips with a smug look on his face.
"By the way, Uncle Yang, the general said that he will discuss the establishment of an alliance with us at the Shen Ce Mansion tomorrow."
After being proud of knowing the treasure for a while, Zhou Xingxing said to Walter.
"Well, we will go together tomorrow morning. If you have anything else to do in the Immortal Boat, go and do it. We have been docked in the Immortal Boat for some time... We still need to go to the Black Tower to deal with the matter regarding Edo Star."
Walter frowned slightly, he was still very concerned about the Doomsday Beast.
After all, he did not get rid of the Doomsday Beast at that time, but just threw it into the black hole. He did not expect that it would run out and harm other planets.
In general, I am also partly responsible for the crisis on Edo Planet.
"You don't have to worry too much, Walter. Didn't the Black Tower say that although the Doomsday Beast made a big fuss, it disappeared afterwards. It is probably hiding somewhere on Edo Planet to recover from its injuries."
Seeing Walter's appearance, Ji Zi spoke to comfort him.
"Yes, I understand. But if we act early, we can also avoid unnecessary casualties caused by Doommon."
Walter nodded, knowing that there was no point in being anxious.
After all, if the Doomsday Beast hides somewhere and doesn't come out, it will probably take a lot of effort for them to find its trace.
"By the way, Bronya, I have some ideas about the Punk Lord cassette. Let me tell you about it."
Walter dropped the topic of Doommon and turned to Bronya's problem.
"Huh? So fast?"
Bronya was a little surprised, and quickly walked to sit next to Walter.
Walter took out a blueprint and told Bronya about the principles and applications of Punklord cassette ether editing and virtual structures while drawing something.
"We can use the etheric editing of the Punklord cassette to create a fictional auxiliary device for combat...or a robot."
"Like Swarlow?"
For some reason, Bronya immediately thought of Clara and Swarovski.
"You can say that, and one of my students did the same thing, so I have a detailed plan here..."
As he spoke, Walter began to paint.
Zhou Xingxing was a little curious, so he walked to Walter's side and stuck his head out to take a look.
After taking a look, Zhou Xingxing found it more and more familiar.
As Walter's painting gradually became complete, Zhou Xingxing's face was filled with black lines. What a guy.
"Uncle Yang, this mecha..."
When Bronya saw the mecha drawn by Walter, her eyes lit up.
"Its name is Heavy Loaded Bunny."
"puff..."
Zhou Xingxing almost spit out laughter when he heard the name.
I didn’t expect that you would play like this, Walter, right? Okay, okay.
"Heavy-duty bunny? That's a cute name."
Bronya said with a slight smile.
"Oh, at least that's what my students call it. It has excellent close-range combat capabilities, as well as decent protection capabilities. It can even transform into a vehicle to provide excellent mobility when necessary."
As Walter's picture gradually became complete, Zhou Xingxing also realized that this was the version of the Heavy Armored Bunny when Bronya became the Herrscher of Truth.
"Uncle Yang, your students are amazing... They can actually use every aspect of a machine to its full potential..."
When Bronya heard this, she realized that the machine could be used for close or long distance defense, and even had excellent mobility. It had absolutely no shortcomings and was beyond her understanding of machines.
After all, whether it is a robot like Swarovski or its mechanical creations, they all have some serious shortcomings in terms of mobility or strength protection, and it is impossible to achieve the best of all worlds.
"She is indeed very powerful...but I believe you are no worse than her."
Walter smiled and said.
Encouraged, Bronya nodded heavily, and then began to study day and night.
Zhou Xingxing nodded with relief when he saw this. Maybe it won’t be long before we can gather a complete group of main characters of Honkai Impact 3rd.
Early the next morning, Zhou Xingxing was still sleeping soundly when there was a knock on his door.
"Xing, it's time to get up and eat. You're going to discuss the alliance with Luofu's general soon, right?"
Ji Zi's voice came along with the knock on the door, and Zhou Xingxing quickly responded and got up.
After washing up and coming to the dining table, I saw that Bronya and Walter both had dark circles under their eyes.
"Did you not sleep well last night?"
Qiong asked confusedly while chewing a sandwich.
As soon as he got in the car yesterday, he ran back to his room and didn't even know that Bronya and Walter were working on the re-installation of the rabbit.
"No... Actually, I didn't sleep much at all, because I was a little too excited about reinstalling the bunny, so Mr. Walter and I didn't go back to the room and studied all night."
"It's mainly a matter of adaptation. And with the power of the Punk Lord cassette, it can be further strengthened. Although it's just a replica, the energy it can provide is also extremely huge."
As they talked, the two started chatting again.
Qiong was speechless and should have stopped asking if he had known.
"Okay, both of you, let's eat quickly. Walter, you still have to lead the team to the Shen Ce Mansion in a while."
Seeing this, Ji Zi shook her head helplessly and said.
"That's right... Bronya, you should go back to sleep after dinner."
Walter nodded and said to Bronya.
"Hey, I should go with you, right?"
Bronya asked, stunned.
“It’s okay, Bronya, just leave it to Walter, and you can have a good rest. Girls can’t stay up late often. Don’t stay up all night with Walter next time.”
Jizi persuaded Bronya again.
Bronya nodded when she saw this. After all, she was a little sleepy after staying up all night.
"Then can I not go?"
March 7 asked when he saw this.
“Xiao Sanyue, you didn’t stay up all night, so just follow Walter obediently.”
Himeko said smiling at Mitsuki.
Upon hearing this, San Yueqi's face immediately turned bitter. Didn't he just tell me to leave everything to Uncle Yang?
After dinner, the group came to the Shen Ce Mansion, where Jing Yuan had been waiting for a long time.
On the side, Yukong Tingyun Fu Xuan and others were also there, and it was obvious that they attached great importance to this moment.
"Welcome, everyone on the Star Train."
Jing Yuan greeted everyone with a smile when he saw them coming.
"Please wait here, General."
Walter said politely.
"That's fine. You all helped me out during this Star Core Incident. Now that it's over, it's time to be honest and give back to you all."
"From now on, you are all sworn allies of Luofu. You will receive the highest level of preferential treatment in Luofu territory... In addition, on behalf of the Luofu Cloud Cavalry, I will give you a jade omen symbolizing the alliance."
"This jade omen represents the common oath of all the immortal boats. If you have any requests in the future, no matter where you are in the vast Milky Way, Luofu Cloud Riders will rush to meet up with the train and lend a helping hand."
Jing Yuan said, holding the jade in his hand and handing it to Walter.
"This gift is very valuable. On behalf of the Star Train, I would like to thank the general for his kindness."
Walter took the jade sign very solemnly. With this jade sign, the Starry Sky Train would have a great boost from now on.
Next, Jingyuan also pardoned Danheng's expulsion order.
But it is naturally difficult to cancel the Star Core Hunter. After all, that is the company's bounty target, and all I can do is not pursue it privately.
"Everyone, Luofu has eliminated external threats now, and internal threats are not worth mentioning. I would like to set up a banquet to entertain you all today, which should also make up for the welcome party you missed when the Starry Sky Train entered Luofu. I hope you will not refuse."
Jing Yuan said with a slight smile.
Naturally, no one would refuse, especially Sanyueqi and Qiong, who immediately smiled into crescent shapes when they heard about the luxurious dinner.
"Oh, Bronya must be sleeping now after staying up all night. It's a pity that she missed a great meal."
March 7 said with a look of regret.
"No way, this is the price of knowledge."
Qiong chuckled, looking like a plastic sister.
The scale of the banquet was not very large. The guests were all from the Six Departments, many of whom Zhou Xingxing knew.
"Brother Xing, let me toast you! Thank you so much, Ning Yun can see now."
Bai Lu, as the Dragon Lord and living in the Shen Ce Mansion, naturally attended the banquet as well.
"You're welcome. But although you live in Shen Ce Mansion now, you have to be careful of those dragon masters of the Chi Ming clan in the future. Do you understand?"
"Well, I understand. Although I am still young, I am not stupid. Those old guys want to kill me, and I will not give them another chance."
Bai Lu nodded. After experiencing the previous incident in the Scaled Abyss Realm, a hint of shrewdness appeared on this innocent little face.
"My benefactor, I haven't seen you for two days. Do you miss me?"
Tingyun walked to Zhou Xingxing with a smile on his face, holding a wine glass, and asked softly before leaning over his shoulder.
"Don't dare."
Zhou Xingxing sat upright, looking like a gentleman.
"I dressed up specially today, but you didn't even look at me~"
"The word sex has a knife on its head."
"By the way, Lord Yukong also wants to thank you for saving my life. What kind of reward do you want? You can discuss it with me in private, and I will tell Lord Yukong later."
"Rewards are external to me, so I don't need them."
Seeing Zhou Xingxing looking so serious, Tingyun couldn't help but sigh, wondering what happened to his benefactor today?
It was not until Tingyun left that Zhou Xingxing felt that the extremely strong gaze behind him had disappeared.
"call..."
Zhou Xingxing took a sip of tea and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sir, I offer you a toast. All the affairs in Luofu have come to an end for the time being, and I have also finished all the things in my hands. I wonder if you will have some free time later. I would like to discuss and learn from you."
Fu Xuan also walked over to Zhou Xingxing and toasted him.
"Sure, just say a word from Fu Taibu, I'm always available."
Zhou Xingxing nodded and returned the toast.
"Oh, sir... I noticed that the general looked very good today... It felt like he was several hundred years younger... Does sir have any clues?"
Seeing the changes in Jing Yuan, Fu Xuan had some guesses, but he was not sure.
But somehow, I always feel that this matter has something to do with my husband.
"This matter... let's discuss it in detail with Fu Taibu later."
"Well! Then I will come to see you later, sir!"
Fu Xuan nodded when he heard this, secretly delighted.
Sure enough, this matter is indeed related to you, sir, but you don't know how to do this...
The more Fu Xuan thought about it, the more anxious he felt, and he was looking forward to the private meeting later.
After dinner.
Before leaving, Jing Yuan secretly grabbed Zhou Xingxing.
"Although I have given you all the jade signs, I think everything you have done is far better than this jade sign. Although I want to give you all a higher thank you gift, as General Luofu, I do not have the power to mobilize other immortal ships."
Jing Yuan shook his head helplessly and sighed.
"It's alright. This jade omen is enough. For the time being, there is nothing that the Immortal Boat Alliance needs to do with the Starry Sky Train."
Zhou Xingxing smiled faintly, not caring at all.
"No, although Luofu has concluded an alliance with you this time, it is actually too high. I only hope that if there is any need in the future, you can help when important figures in the alliance need to deal with the evil spirit."
"That's good. Maybe we can even get a few jade signs from other immortal boats."
Zhou Xingxing nodded. It was not a big deal. It was just a matter of a few words from him. It was just a bit troublesome for him to go there in person.
"Haha, if the generals of other immortal boats saw your ability, they would naturally make the same choice as me."
Jing Yuan laughed. This sentence might be a joke in the eyes of his teacher, but it was inevitable in his eyes.
"Well, I wish you a smooth journey. I will take my leave today, sir."
"General, take your leave."
Zhou Xingxing waved gently.
Looking back at the Shen Ce Mansion again, and catching up with the people on the train, this journey on the Immortal Boat is finally coming to an end.
