Chapter 671: Chapter 672: The Unique Boat_1

On the beach of Pearl Town, the old Master Xia Yu awaited with others. After some modest refusals to give out the gifts that had been prepared in advance, old Master Xia Yu said with a hint of confusion,

"Do you really not need us to send you off? It seems like you don’t have a ship."

The old master did not quite believe they would ride on the back of the Sea God to leave, as Delong Tower and Kui Shui Xuanwu were different. Kui Shui Xuanwu, at least, could claim to have the ability to carry people, but Delong Tower’s smooth back, even if they could stand on it, would not be comfortable to ride on.

"No need, we have a ship."

With a mysterious smile, Feng Yuan waved his hand, and a massive ring of light appeared abruptly in the sky. The dark purple ring slowly expanded, revealing a pitch-black passage, from which an aura of deathly silence emanated.

Just when everyone was puzzled about what Feng Yuan was going to do, the passage seemed sufficiently widened, and a sphere emanating holy light slowly emerged from it.

"Damn it!"

Upon seeing the thing that emerged from the passage, Guo Huai couldn’t help but shout. Feng Yuan glanced at Guo Huai and asked,

"You actually recognize it?"

Guo Huai, holding onto Feng Yuan’s clothes excitedly, said,

"That’s the Norek, isn’t it?"

"You actually have the Norek! Could it be that you are..."

Remembering what the ship represented, Guo Huai was excited yet somewhat at a loss. Liu Wenli, with a look of confusion, glanced at Guo Huai and then at the metallic giant ship in the sky, asking,

"What is that? Why does it look so different from the ships we usually see?"

"That’s..."

Guo Huai didn’t know how to explain. How could the Star Ocean mother ship Norek be compared with those wooden ships? But explaining that would be difficult. Not to mention that this world did not have an endless Star Ocean, being a world perceived as a dome and a square, this item was truly famous because it was the vehicle of a certain hero in Guo Huai’s former life.

How could he explain something that transcended worlds? Looking at Feng Yuan, with an indecipherable look, and after glancing at Guo Huai, Feng Yuan said with a smile,

"How is it? Do you feel disappointed?"

"What?"

"It’s different from what you imagined, right?"

"This..."

Guo Huai knew what Feng Yuan meant, but to say there was a gap with his imagination... In fact, Guo Huai had long stopped believing in those recorded stories. No one knew what had been altered or embellished. Although the Feng Yuan in front of him didn’t seem quite like those so-called heroes...

Guo Huai could not deny that Feng Yuan did not look like an unremarkable person. Remembering the question that puzzled countless people, Guo Huai really wanted to ask Feng Yuan that question that had troubled everyone in the Federation for a long time, but remembering that this was not the right place, he had to restrain himself.

"Let’s go~"

The Norek slowly stopped in front of the beach. As Liu Wenli was about to ask how to get on board, she saw a massive metal plank slowly tilt down behind them, and a sky-blue energy pathway constructed of translucent energy stretched along the edge of the metal plank to directly in front of the crowd.

"How marvelous."

Mo Ling, curious, tried it and found that she could indeed walk on that translucent energy pathway. Guo Huai was not surprised by this; he even took it as a matter of course, as even battleships would have this functionality to facilitate boarding.

But...

Looking at the Norek, Guo Huai really didn’t know how to describe Feng Yuan’s achievement. Even in modern times, the Norek was capable of outclassing most ships. There was no choice; in this world, with Spirit Beasts around, there wasn’t such an urgent need to research those ships and airplanes.

Especially airplanes and spaceships, as the world’s boundary was high in the sky. Unlike in Guo Huai’s previous life where ascending continuously would mean gradually leaving one’s planet, in this case, airplanes were actually less efficient than high-speed trains—at least they didn’t require powerful Spirit Beasts as escorts.

Only large ships could cross continents, and naturally, those ships wouldn’t consider being equipped like the Norek which had weapons and could fly.

Entering the interior of the Norek, they observed decorations completely different from current ships, and everyone couldn’t help but be amazed. Guo Huai was just excited that he could actually enter and tour the interior of the legendary Norek, which, in his time, had long become like the legend of an unnamed person, only remaining as a tale.

Perhaps there were once models or data of the Norek left behind, but after a long period of time, no one was able to restore the original data of the Norek.

It wasn’t until Feng Yuan led everyone to the deck and they saw the Norek sailing on the sea like an ordinary boat, that Mo Li and the others, curious, ran to the edge to look down at the sea below. This was their first time on a ship made entirely of metal, especially one with such an unusual shape.

"Luckily he doesn’t think of building a ship just like it; otherwise, he would’ve doomed many."

The mocking Yao Yin said while staying with Feng Yuan. One must know that the Norek was a Star Ocean mother ship and its external design did not account for buoyancy. If someone actually tried to build a ship in the shape of this thing, unless the materials used could float on water by themselves, it would definitely sink straight to the bottom.

As for why the Norek could float on the water? That was only because Feng Yuan had reduced the flight altitude; from the beginning to the end, the Norek had not relied on buoyancy to stay afloat.

"You can actually recognize it?"

Feng Yuan looked at Yao Yin with some surprise, turned, and while walking towards Mo Ling, he said,

"It’s not like we don’t have such things where we come from. Is it really okay for you to bring this out?"

Before Feng Yuan could answer, Yao Yin had already walked away. Guo Huai pulled Feng Yuan aside and asked in a low voice,

"Are you really that nameless person?"

"Which one are you referring to?"

Guo Huai looked at Feng Yuan, puzzled, and realized the other man didn’t seem to be joking. He asked with uncertainty,

"Are there many nameless individuals? I remember there being only two, right? I’m asking about the one associated with the Norek."

Although Guo Huai said he was asking, he seemed quite certain that Feng Yuan was that person. Feng Yuan, with a dismissive sneer, said,

"Even though I specifically made everyone forget, why do you still insist on pursuing it? Does it make any difference whether I am or am not?"

"This..."

Scratching his head, Guo Huai was at a loss for words. In reality, it didn’t matter if Feng Yuan was the forgotten nameless individual, as they were no longer in their original world. But recalling something, Guo Huai looked at Feng Yuan with surprise and said,

"No way! Are both... both of them you?!"

"What else?"

"It seems... indeed..."

Remembering how no one could recall the faces or names of the two nameless individuals, only their deeds and legends, Guo Huai couldn’t help but fall silent. After a moment, he looked at Feng Yuan and asked,

"Why did you do this? Could it be that you had some difficulties?"

"No, I just didn’t want to leave any trace of myself, that’s all."

Glancing at his own palm, Feng Yuan said softly,

"Moreover, I did not expect that you all would still remember."

"Of course, we would remember! You did so many things! During the era you were active, the Federation obtained tremendous development!"

"So what? A civilization cannot just rely on one person to survive. Besides, to tell the truth, I admire General Sethvon even more."

"Sethvon?"

Guo Huai, with a puzzled expression, tried hard to recall for a long time and then said with some disbelief,

"You mean that traitor?!"

"Traitor?"

Feng Yuan glanced at Guo Huai and laughed lightly,

"Maybe that’s what you all believe, isn’t it?"

"Why do you admire him?"

Guo Huai looked at Feng Yuan incredulously, not believing that Feng Yuan would tolerate a traitor. Remembering something, he stared at Feng Yuan and asked,

"Could there be some hidden story?"

"What if there is? What if there isn’t? He simply lived his life in pursuit of his ideals. Who can really assert what is right and what is wrong? At least I know that those soldiers still despised him even after his death."

"Let’s drop this subject, shall we? Would you like to start up the Norek?"

"It... It came with you?"

"No, I didn’t take anyone with me, the Norek is just left as a memento."

Feng Yuan looked down at the deck, his face the picture of wistful contemplation. The shadowy figure of Agunas seemed puzzled as to why Feng Yuan would bring out something so full of memories, but after thinking, he chose not to remind him, to avoid stirring up emotions that might affect his mood.
