Over the Forbidden Sea, a civilian airship was wobbling along.
There were only two people in the ship’s cabin. Qing Chen was sitting on the floor, holding an LCD panel and quickly browsing through the news.
These were past news from the West Continent, having lost their tiliness.
However, Qing Chen was attempting to understand the full picture of this world he had forgotten through past events in the West Continent.
Because of the ship’s wobbling, the cup in front of him slid back and forth on the smooth floor. Qing Chen watched the water in the cup almost spill over, then looked up at the flustered Black Spider: "Didn’t you say you could pilot the airship? If I’d known you would pilot the airship like this, I would have kidnapped a few pilots..."
Black Spider blushed: "I didn’t expect the civilian airship’s configuration to be so low, that it can only be piloted manually... They didn’t even purchase the autopilot package."
Qing Chen pointed at the LCD panel in his hand: "The autopilot package requires purchase, a mbership fee of 120,000 a year, ordinary people certainly can’t afford it."
Black Spider hung her head in sha: "I haven’t personally piloted an airship much before... And this civilian airship is too old, many parts are aging."
Qing Chen pondered: "How far are we from Relay Island?"
"1100 kiloters," Black Spider said.
"This is tough," Qing Chen remarked.
Black Spider changed the subject: "Upon reaching Relay Island, without a clearance beacon, we will definitely be subjected to inspection. At that ti, boss, you just wait on the airship, I’ll think of a way to handle them."
"Can you handle it?" Qing Chen said, "I can help."
"Boss, you haven’t regained your mory yet..." Black Spider said while glancing back to see Qing Chen had found several dining knives from the civilian airship, holding them tightly as if preparing for a tense confrontation...
Though Qing Chen had killed in the Outer World, he felt haunted long after, not knowing what he feared...
The airship gradually stabilized, and Black Spider slowly got accustod to piloting it.
"Boss," Black Spider said.
"Hmm?" Qing Chen looked up, his gaze shifting from the LCD panel.
"Actually, you haven’t regained all your mories, so why are you so eager to return?" Black Spider asked, "I’ve studied you. If your mory state reverted to before the crossing, you should be avoiding things like this. You were very cautious back then, overly cautious even."
Qing Chen thought for a mont: "Because of a note, it reminded of Iodophor, Hawthorn, and Wrench... I always felt that the things they insisted on couldn’t be wrong. Being with people like them shouldn’t be wrong, that’s all."
The airship fell silent, and for the next few hours, Qing Chen was absorbed in the news.
After so ti, Black Spider said, "We’re 18 kiloters from Relay Island, but strangely, no one is warning us to stay away, boss, there might be danger."
Qing Chen suddenly looked up: "I think what awaits us may not be danger."
The airship reached above Relay Island, and strangely, flas were burning everywhere as if the place had just been mysteriously destroyed.
Black Spider asked, "Do we land?"
"Land, since we’re out of fuel anyway... Can’t just fall into the sea and feed the monsters."
The airship descended, and as soon as the cabin door opened, Black Spider saw Drama Master cloaked in black outside and imdiately shielded Qing Chen while retreating: "Boss, be careful!"
Qing Chen patted her shoulder: "Um, they don’t seem hostile."
Outside, Drama Master looked at Qing Chen with interest: "I heard you lost your mory. It’s hard to imagine the Master of Dayti having such a day. Darling, co quickly, see your idol."
Black Spider hesitated: "Fifth Princess?"
"Yes," the Fifth Princess removed her black hood: "We’ve been waiting here for you for several hours. My subordinate targeted a Marquis on this Relay Island and just happened to see that he was going to be killed by Mr. Qing Chen... So I killed him in advance. This feeling of thwarting fate, it’s truly wonderful."
Qing Chen asked, "What is the purpose?"
Bolton had co up, without restraint, even wanting to pinch Qing Chen’s face: "Do you rember ?"
"I don’t rember," Qing Chen shook his head.
Bolton wailed: "Then my jumping into the flood to save you before, was it all for nothing?!"
The Fifth Princess laughed: "It’s okay, he will rember everything eventually."
Black Spider asked, "Why did you clear this Relay Island?"
"Because when making a high-stakes gamble, you must place the chips in the hands of the real player," the Fifth Princess smiled. "I previously cooperated with Wang Xiaojiu, but in the Eastern Continent, it’s ultimately this person who has the final say, I need to let him know what I’ve done. Your civilian airship is too slow, ti to switch to my Fifth Princess ship."
Qing Chen asked: "Thank you for your kindness, but I have more important questions. From your perspective, who else does the Eastern Continent need to be wary of?"
"Orcs Army?" The Fifth Princess mused: "They’ve filled the gap with the Taboo Ant Queen, turning the once uncontrollable Orcs Army into a controllable force. If they acquired the Queen Ant sooner, the Giant Race might have vanished from this planet."
"Anything else?" Qing Chen asked.
