Chapter 141 Starships
This time, only a dozen or so people they knew well went out, so they didn't drive the base's warships, but instead had their transportation provided by classmate Lu Yuan—a luxury yacht.
“This…this yacht isn’t…” Wang Sanhai, who had once robbed Lu Yuan of an identical yacht, stood at the base’s dock, his jaw practically dropping in astonishment.
"Don't be surprised, this isn't that yacht." Pei Sihao walked behind Wang Sanhai, and seeing his surprised look, he smiled and pushed him onto the yacht. After all, he and Lin Yun had witnessed this guy steal Lu Yuan's previous yacht.
"That spatial ability is really amazing." Liu Jia understood something from Pei Sihao's words, and he sighed and jumped onto the yacht.
And so, the group of people set sail on the yacht towards the vast sea.
"Is this enough? I'm really hungry." Yang Xiao stood on the deck of the yacht. This time, Wang Sanhai was the one driving. Apart from Lin Yun, who was relatively afraid of the cold, staying in the wheelhouse with Wang Sanhai, everyone else was enjoying the sea breeze on the deck. It hadn't snowed for the past two days, and although the temperature hadn't risen, it was still better than the continuous blizzard.
"No, it's not far enough." Lu Yuan glanced back at the direction of the base, where he could still vaguely see the shadow of the South China Base.
"Isn't this far enough? How big is it?" Zhong Qiang was actually quite hungry. Yang Xiao's words only made him feel even hungrier. Especially since he hadn't eaten anything since he knew there would be a dinner party this afternoon, he was planning to have a good meal to make up for it.
“It’s an interstellar warship.” Lu Yuan’s calm tone caught those around him off guard, leaving them momentarily confused about what he had just said.
"What?" The first to react was Wei Cheng, who was suffering from chuunibyou (middle school syndrome). When he called out, Li Minze also came to his senses.
"An interstellar warship? You're not kidding?"
“I’m not kidding, it’s an interstellar warship.” Lu Yuan nodded seriously.
"Lu Xiaoyuan, are you running a fever or am I dreaming?" Pei Sihao, who was next to Lu Yuan, raised his hand and pressed it against Lu Xiaoyuan's forehead without thinking. Fortunately, he could not feel anything through the protective membrane of the exoskeleton mecha.
Lu Yuan looked around. Even Gu Nanfeng and Ji Lang didn't quite believe what he had just said, and they didn't take it seriously as a joke.
Although no one believed Lu Yuan's words, they still let Wang Sanhai steer the yacht further away.
Not long after, at Gu Nanfeng's signal, the yacht finally stopped in a calm sea area. He had already used his mental power to explore the nearby waters. There were no advanced marine zombie species here, and it was also far from the monitoring range of the South China Base. Under normal circumstances, the base's monitoring would not be able to monitor such a far place.
Lu Yuan had seen the miniature image of the warship in the space more than once, but he had never had the chance to release it for detailed study. So, he only knew that it was an interstellar warship, but he had no idea how big it was.
As everyone held their breath, watching Lu Yuan intently and anticipating his release of this interstellar warship that surpassed current technology, what Lu Yuan released using his mind to manipulate space left everyone utterly astonished.
"Huh? You're really not kidding?" Yang Xiao looked at the little cutie floating in Lu Yuan's palm, then looked at Lu Yuan again, repeating this several times. The "interstellar battleship" remained unchanged, as did Lu Yuan's frozen expression.
"Brother Lu, I suspect you're mocking my intelligence, but I dare not say it." Wei Cheng couldn't help but poke the cute little "warship" hovering in Lu Yuan's palm with his index finger, and then looked up at the sky.
"This is really not fun." Wang Sanhai, who had rushed out hoping to see a miracle, was also shocked by this little cutie. However, he was only shocked for a moment, and then asked very seriously, "Can't we eat first?"
This reminded Yang Xiao and Zhong Qiang, who had been starving for a long time. They knew that all the vehicles in Lu Yuan's space, as long as they could store things, were filled with food, especially luxury yachts with refrigerators, which were always stocked with food, drinks, and beverages. Without thinking twice, they returned to their cabin and began rummaging for food.
"Let's eat something first, I'm really a bit hungry." Lin Yun, who had always been like the head chef among them, finished speaking and followed Yang Xiao and the others to the cabin to prepare dinner.
One by one, everyone went back to the cabin to help. They had to wait for Lin Yun to finish cooking, so only Lu Yuan, the chuunibyou-afflicted Li Minze and Wei Cheng, and Gu Nanfeng, whom none of them expected to stay, remained on the deck.
The four of them stood in a neat circle on the deck, and Lu Yuan placed the little "warship" in the middle of them. This thing was always in a floating state, making you feel embarrassed to say that it was just a toy, but it was so small that it was hard to believe that it was really a warship.
"Want to try 'Open Sesame'?" Wei Cheng bent down and leaned close to the small "battleship" and said.
"Why don't you just say 'activation' to it?" Li Minze rolled his eyes at Wei Cheng and poked the floating little thing with his finger.
"Activation!" Lu Yuan originally wanted to laugh at these two chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) sufferers, but for some reason, he couldn't help but shout out the word like Li Minze.
Just as Gu Nanfeng was about to say something, the miniature "interstellar warship" that they had surrounded suddenly flew into the air and began to emit a not-too-bright white light. The small warship gradually grew larger in the white light until it was twice the size of the yacht they were on, then it stopped changing and the white light gradually disappeared.
Everyone in the cabin rushed out as soon as they saw the white light on the deck. Before their eyes, the little cutie had transformed into a starship that, while not huge, was still quite impressive.
"My God! This...this is really..." Wei Cheng stood directly below the warship, his jaw practically dropping in astonishment.
"My God! I can't believe my eyes! This is real..." Li Minze's mouth was agape, he couldn't believe his eyes, and he couldn't believe his own casual suggestion.
"Where's Lu Yuan?" When everyone came to their senses, Gu Nanfeng realized that Lu Yuan, who should have been beside him, was nowhere to be seen.
"Brother Gu! Brother Hao! Captain Lin! I'm here!" As if sensing that others were looking for him, Lu Yuan's small head popped out from a circular entrance-like opening below the hovering warship.
"Damn it, Lu Xiaoyuan, how did you get up there?" Yang Xiao didn't even bother to steal a bite of the hotpot Lin Yun had just started cooking. He dashed to the bottom of the warship and looked up at Lu Yuan.
"I don't know either. I came to my senses and I was up there." Because the distance was still a bit high, Lu Yuan shouted at the top of his lungs, "And now I don't even know how to get down."
