Global Era of Star trekking

Song Chi couldn't hide his joy, intuition told him that Ansewei did not seem like the kind of person who would make exorbitant demands at the last minute.

However, seeing the woman's liquid gaze, he instinctively felt a sense of unease, always feeling that the other party was thinking of some tricky condition again.

Indeed, that was the case. Although Ansewei passed the Ether Crystal to Song Chi without hesitation, her words didn't pause for a moment as she laughed and said,

"Have you thought about how to repay me? How about offering yourself in return?"

Having habitually ignored her increasingly shameless words, he thought for a moment and then took out a millennium Dragon Blood Fruit from his Storage Capsule.

The Top Rank Dragon Blood Fruit, equivalent to half of an Orange Component, was surely more than enough for trading the Ether Crystal.

While the Ether Crystal was somewhat rare, its price was actually just so-so.

Ansewei glanced at the millennium Dragon Blood Fruit, a hint of surprise flickering in her eyes. She was quite astonished that Song Chi could produce such a life-extending Spirit Fruit.

Not expecting a captain who rose from the edge of the border to casually produce a Spirit Fruit comparable to half of an Orange Component, she naturally considered it a difficult acquisition for Song Chi. Knowing that the Ether Crystal had been lying in her collection room for nearly a century, she quickly shook her head gently.

"Just teasing you. It was just something gathering dust in the warehouse..."

After that, seeing Song Chi about to speak, Ansewei continued,

"My birthday is two months from now, taking place at the Saint Loran Manor to the north of Holy Star City. If you really feel bad, just remember to prepare a gift that will satisfy me..."

Having received the birthday party invitation from Ansewei, Song Chi hesitated for a while but ultimately nodded his head.

After the conversation, Song Chi also mentioned the matter of the White Tower Floating Land and the Shen family to her, asking her to help him investigate.

Once he had Ansewei's agreement, the two chatted for a while longer before he took his leave.

With the Ether Crystal in hand, and the Wind Barbarian team back, Song Chi still had a lot of matters to handle.

Legendary Guild, top floor.

The woman tilted her neck, as smooth as lard jade, looking up at the ascending Cangqiong, with radiance circulating in her eyes.

As soon as the Cruiser completely vanished into the clouds in the sky and out of sight, a figure in formal attire, straight and tall, stealthily appeared behind her.

"Give the order. Have the investigators send a High-Level team to the White Tower Floating Land in the Golden Shark Starfield, and clear up the related information about the Shen family in Jiangyuan City from twenty years ago."

"Understood. Should we also look into this individual's background?"

"Yes!"

...

Holy Star City, North Street.

Determined to find out more about the Sand of Time, Song Chi steered the Cangqiong around to this location, forcibly suppressing the urge to upgrade the Ruins Market.

North Street, number 1105.

As the resident location of the Wind Barbarian team, number 1105 was not on the main road of North Street, but neither was it secluded. It didn't take long for Song Chi to find the place.

Thanks to the prior heads-up from Song Yufeng, when Song Chi arrived, the Wind Barbarian team afforded him the highest courtesy.

Number 1105, second-floor hall.

The team leader, "Wind Barbarian", captain of the Cruiser "Shi Man", looked at Song Chi before him with respect, pondered for a moment, then said,

"Song Seventh Prince, we indeed possess the Sand of Time, that I can guarantee. But we don't need this 'millennium Dragon Blood Fruit'; instead, we would like to invite Your Highness to join us on an exploration mission to the Alien Star Domain in one month's time!"

Song Chi, having already heard about this matter from Song Yufeng, was unsurprised. He put away the two millennium Dragon Blood Fruits he had taken out and asked instead,

"What are the specifics?"

Shi Man hesitated for a moment, giving Song Chi an apologetic look before starting to communicate with his team members in a special private chat.

"What do you all think? Shall we tell this Song Seventh Prince directly?"

"The Storm Continent is a Fourth Rank Life Floating Land, inherently protected by powerful Source Law. The Fourth Rank male storm giant eagle among that storm eagle tribe is honestly not something our team can handle on our own. It's been three years, and we can't delay any longer; if we do, the Storm Mica is likely to be used by that female giant eagle, and we can't drag this out any further!"

(PS: Are there many book listeners? They say '4' can't be recognized, so should I use regular Arabic numerals from now on?)

"I agree too. Besides, this individual belongs to the Dinghai Song lineage; surely he won't covet that Storm Mica, right?"

"From secret channels, I've learned that this Song Seventh Prince is cultivating the Space Law; it's unlikely he covets the Storm Mica."

"Space Law, then it should be stable. Though Storm Mica can increase the cruiser's chance of advancing to a Zhulu Warship, a successful advancement will inevitably cause the flagship to develop a bias in Attributes. Captain, you're already fixed on following the Law of Wind, so it won't affect you, and the Song Seventh Prince should be aware of this."

...

Seeing they finally finished discussing, Song Chi inquired for the second time.

"Have you decided?"

Shi Man replied with a smile,

"Of course, we trust Your Highness. However, since this matter is crucial to the future development of our team, we still implore Your Highness to keep it confidential even if you choose not to cooperate with us later on!"

Song Chi readily agreed; it was a perfectly reasonable request.

"It's like this: our target is a Fourth Rank Life Floating Land that has special climate conditions, shrouded in stormy weather all year round..."

After Shi Man finished providing the details, Song Chi fell into contemplation, not replying immediately.

A Fourth Rank floating land, a Fourth Rank storm giant eagle, plus the impact of a special storm climate, were nothing minor. These required careful consideration.
