Star Railway: The Pioneer's Journey

Chapter 5 Astrological Calendar 4000 – To the Present

At that time, neither Lan nor Yunzhi realized the seriousness of the matter.

I felt my body was full of power, and I wanted to follow this power and walk on the right path.

Before Yunzhi could react, he saw Lan, who had just fired a stunning arrow, suddenly rush out and disappear into the edge of the starry sea.

Huh?

Lan rushed too fast. Yun Zhi's vision blurred for a moment, and he didn't have time to be stunned for long. He glanced back at the swaying fairy boat one last time, then quickly urged his warhorse to chase after Lan.

The warhorse was incredibly fast, so fast that the stars in Yun Zhi's eyes seemed to turn into shooting stars.

Then, the warhorse suddenly stopped and slid for a distance.

The warhorse's armored face seemed to be twitching.

Yunzhi looked over in confusion.

Then he saw a wall of stars stretching into the distance, with Lan's head and shoulders embedded in it, trying to pull himself out.

"Storm!"

Yun was so frightened that she quickly jumped off her horse and pulled him away.

Lan was probably not used to it yet, and was going too fast. He accidentally crashed into the wall while speeding, and was stuck in it tightly. Yun spent a lot of time trying to pull him out but couldn't.

Yun attempted to dismantle the wall to rescue the person.

The next second, a giant hand suddenly appeared, grabbed Lan's rear wheel, and pulled him out.

This effectively ended Yunzhi's plan to dismantle the wall.

"So hasty and disorganized!"

A majestic voice came from above, and Yunzhi and Lan both froze for a moment.

The oldest star god, like a star, bowed his head to look at the newborn star god before him, and the messenger who was led by the star god to become a god.

The Star God of [Preservation], known in the Immortal Ship as "Heaven-Mending Master" Kripper.

His gaze seemed to fall on Yunzhi.

This was the first time Cripper had ever seen such a messenger who was so close to a star god, and he couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Yun Zhiwang squeezed next to the rear wheels of Lan.

It's a bit strange to be stared at like that.

Cripper didn't look any further, turned around, and inspected the wall that had been smashed open by Lan.

Yunzhi and Lan looked like two naughty kids who had done something wrong, standing side by side, looking slightly awkward.

Cripper quickly turned his head back.

"—Go."

"—Go and fulfill your destiny, new star god."

"—Do not hesitate, do not waver, soar on your destiny's path, [Hunter]!"

The further away from my wall, the better!

For some reason, Yunzhi always felt that this was Kripper's subtext.

Lan nodded slightly, then immediately turned around and ran away at an extremely fast speed.

Yun bowed to Kripper in apology, mounted his horse, and rode off in the same direction as Lan.

He thought he heard Cripper say his last words as he left.

"—If you touch my walls again, you'll become my building materials!"

The horse's hooves moved even faster.

Neither Lan nor Yun wanted to be built into the wall.

Although their memories were confused for quite some time, they eventually pieced things together over time.

Although the Star God can only fulfill his destiny, Lan also set his sights on the Abundant Sinful Creature for revenge. As for the Pharmacist... Lan wasn't really attached to him.

A monster is a monster, and a pharmacist is a pharmacist. If you encounter one, fight it; if you don't, kill the monster first. It's not complicated.

And Xianzhou, the hometown of Lan.

He bestowed a full blessing upon the celestial ships, enabling them to form an alliance and together slay the abundant evil creatures.

After Yunzhi sorted out her memories, she would often change her appearance and run back to the Immortal Boat.

The immortal ship now worships the hunting storm, chasing after the hunting arrows of light, sweeping away the abundant monstrous creatures that wreak havoc throughout the starry sea.

However, if they encounter the Abundant People who have already conquered the entire planet, Lan still has to draw his bow and arrow and destroy that planet to eliminate future troubles.

Thus, the Immortal Ship officially entered the era of hunting.

Everything seemed to be on track. The hunters and the bountiful creatures rarely met, the people below were fighting fiercely, Lan was busy killing those bountiful creatures that were committing evil deeds, and the apothecary was still maintaining his extremely altruistic blessing.

The first messenger to obtain power infinitely close to that of the Star God, the hunting messenger Yunzhi, still followed Lan around. When Lan destroyed a star, he would clean up the messenger's messenger. If a planet had not yet been completely conquered by the Bountiful People, he would go to the planet and kill those Bountiful People.

Moreover, not being a Star God, he has more freedom. He can return to the Immortal Ship at will, and he can also take a break during a hunt to wander around elsewhere.

Just like the train of Archivist, which was pioneered, the company under Cripper, which once ran into the genius club of the believer, the wise and knowledgeable, was almost dragged into a group of geniuses for research.

Later, Yunzhi often focused his attention on the fairy boat.

It was precisely because of this that he was able to change many seemingly predetermined futures.

------------------

In the year 5749 of the Star Calendar, the Immortal Ship welcomed its second Bountiful People's War. This time, with the assistance of the Learned Society, there were no terrible casualties. After confirming that the Immortal Ship was safe, Yun Zhi continued to follow Lan away.

In the year 6300 of the Star Calendar, Yun Zhi noticed something unusual about the Immortal Ship during a hunting trip. He turned around and followed the unusual movement to Cang City, one of the Immortal Ship Alliance. He happened to witness Cang City being about to be swallowed by the activated planet "Devouring World Rahu". Because the activated planet was too close to Cang City, Yun Zhi could not destroy the planet, otherwise it would cause even greater losses.

But Yun Zhi still couldn't bear to watch Cangcheng be completely destroyed.

Countless chains extended from the warhorses' armor, each chain connecting to a small, spherical "grotto" created using spatial folding technology. Yun used these grottoes to sweep away the fleeing residents of Cangcheng, the fox people futilely crashing into the planet in their starships, and the army attempting to stop the planet's fall with their own flesh and blood—all of them—from Cangcheng.

The moment after taking the person away, Yunzhi drew his longbow and shot an arrow at the Devouring Realm Rahu.

The Devouring Realm Rahu collapsed with a roar as it was pierced by the arrow, and the Cangcheng Immortal Ship, which was closest to it, exploded and was completely destroyed.

Yunzhi just felt that something was off.

It seemed that something had escaped before his arrow fell.

Because he was still carrying a large number of clanging and jingling celestial orbs, Yun Zhi didn't have time to chase after them. He decided to first send the people he had rescued from Cang City to other immortal ships.

Naturally, it must be sent to the celestial vessel "Xu Ling" where the marshal resides.

He brought a group of people to Xuling and asked the marshal to arrange a place for the remaining people of Cangcheng.

Some people might complain about why he didn't come sooner, but that has nothing to do with Yunzhi.

He wouldn't blame himself; the immortal boat wasn't his responsibility anymore.

Before leaving, Yunzhi gave the marshal a fragment of an arrow.

"These are fragments of Lan's arrow; you may keep them."

"If in the future there is an enemy that I cannot defeat, and I am too far away to reach them in time, I will use this to ask them for help."

Yun paused for a moment, then continued, "But his Light Arrow won't have any friendly protection, so before asking him for help, evacuate your own people and keep them far away."

Otherwise, the light arrow from the storm would instantly destroy a whole area as soon as it landed.

The marshal took the fragment and nodded solemnly.

"Thank you for your help, True Lord Jingfeng Baiyu."

Yun's face, hidden beneath the mask, twitched slightly.

What a strange name.

It is said that he was given this title because, as the chief messenger of the hunt, he was always extremely vigilant and would shoot his sword at the slightest sound.

Only a rabbit would do something like that.

I don't think this is a compliment.
