Chapter 139 The 4th Divine Key
"A...satellite?"
Lin Qiong frowned, repeating the system's words in his mind as if seeking confirmation.
At the same time, the image of Himeko using a satellite to launch a railgun flashed through his mind.
If that's the case, then this satellite seems a bit of a waste for him...
After all, possessing the Heavenly Judgment, he was not lacking in powerful attack methods.
however.
Seeing that Lin Qiong did not respond immediately, the system asked again in its emotionless voice: [Ding! Claim reward?]
The cold voice disrupted Lin Qiong's thoughts, forcing him to return to the choice before him.
"Claim it."
Although the satellite is of little use to him.
But since it's a free reward, accepting it won't have any negative impact.
What if it comes in handy someday?
With this in mind, Lin Qiong immediately decided to accept the reward.
[Ding! Reward has been issued. Please check your account.]
Hearing the system notification in his mind, Lin Qiong rubbed his hands together with anticipation, very curious about how the reward would be delivered.
But after waiting for a long time, he still didn't see the reward the system had mentioned.
So he asked the system, "System, where's my reward?"
But no matter how he asked, the system seemed not to hear him, and its only response was silence.
After failing to get a response from the system after several attempts, Lin Qiong's heart sank, and he felt a sense of being toyed with by the system.
He even suspected at one point that his rewards had been stolen by the system.
however.
At this moment, Lin Qiong was unaware that Ji Zi and Dan Heng, who remained on the Starry Sky Train, had unexpectedly discovered an object of considerable size...
The landing point of the Star Train, inside the carriage.
"Danheng, could you please check if the train's power supply system is damaged?"
Himeko was intently inspecting the damage to various parts of the train on the terminal, speaking without even looking up.
Dan Heng gave a soft "hmm" and then turned and walked towards the train's engine room.
After the imaginary turbulence forced landing, various systems of the train may have suffered varying degrees of damage.
In order not to affect the subsequent plans, they must conduct a comprehensive inspection and repair of the train as soon as possible.
Upon entering the engine room, Danheng skillfully opened the terminal panel and began checking the various data of the train one by one.
"Power system readings...normal; electrical system readings...2% power loss in the bus compartment; everything else normal..."
Dan Heng meticulously recorded the damage to each carriage, leaving no detail overlooked, whether it was the exterior or the interior facilities.
But just then...
Suddenly, a loud crashing sound, like a huge object hitting the ground, was heard outside the train, accompanied by a slight tremor in the ground.
"An enemy invasion?"
The sudden commotion made Dan Heng stop what he was doing, and his eyes instantly became alert.
He immediately summoned the Cloud Strike, then rushed out of the power room and headed straight for Himeko's location.
Upon arriving there, he discovered that Himeko already had the monomolecular saw in her hand, but looking around, he found no trace of enemy intrusion.
"What's going on?" Dan Heng asked, puzzled.
Himeko shook her head, her face full of wariness: "I'm not quite sure either, but the sound and vibration just now seemed to come from outside the car."
"I'll go out and take a look." Dan Heng, who was skilled and daring, immediately decided to go outside the train to find out what was going on.
Let's go together.
After tidying up the tools for repairing the train, Himeko picked up the monomolecular saw and walked out of the train with Dan Heng.
however.
The moment they stepped off the train, the scene that greeted them left them frozen in place.
"Is this... a satellite?"
Himeko, who uses satellites as weapons, recognized the behemoth in front of her almost instantly.
A perfectly intact satellite had smashed into the ground, creating a deep crater. Its massive body was half-buried in the sand, and its surface was emitting a faint green glow.
Himeko slowly stepped forward and carefully examined the satellite of unknown origin.
It was discovered that even after the satellite struck the ground and created a large crater, its surface remained completely undamaged.
Moreover, the faint green light flowing across its surface seemed to contain some kind of unknown energy.
If Welt Yang or Lin Qiong were present, they would definitely recognize that this satellite was created using the core of the Herrscher of Wind—the Fourth Divine Key.
"Should we dig it out?" Dan Heng asked Himeko for her opinion.
"Hmm, let's dig it out and take a look."
After a thorough inspection, confirming that the satellite posed no danger, Ji Zi nodded in agreement to Dan Heng's proposal.
So the two took tools from the train and began digging.
......
at this time.
Unaware of the situation, Lin Qiong was still inwardly complaining that the system had swallowed the reward that should have been his.
"Damn... The system could have just swallowed the reward, but it still thoughtfully asked me if I wanted to claim it, maximizing the sense of ritual."
As Lin Qiong muttered to himself, he unconsciously cracked his knuckles.
He wasn't so much concerned about the reward itself, but rather the fact that the promised reward hadn't been given, which made him a little angry.
At this time.
Suddenly, shouts of "March 7th!" came from not far away.
"Qiong! Stop standing there daydreaming, it's time to go!"
Hearing the sound, Lin Qiong was suddenly awakened from his reverie and turned to look in the direction of March 7.
Looking around, she saw that everyone else was also looking at her, except for her.
"Why are you leaving already? Weren't you just planning to look for that poet?"
Lin Qiong strode into the crowd, his gaze sweeping over each person present, and asked with a puzzled expression.
“That guy seems to have vanished; we can’t even find any trace of him when he left using elemental vision,” Kaeya replied, his eyes narrowing slightly and his expression grave.
The music can hypnotize everyone in an instant, and it can also leave silently in full view of everyone.
Such abilities... almost transcend the realm of ordinary people.
"Where are we going?" Lin Qiong asked.
"Of course we're going to find old Goethe! Didn't I say I'd help you find temporary accommodation? Have you forgotten already?"
Kaiya looked at Lin Qiong with a smile, deliberately drawing out the tone of her voice, a playful curve appearing at the corner of her mouth.
"I never expected that you, wearing a single eye patch and dressed as a pirate, pretending to be a bad guy, would actually be a good person."
Xing blinked and commented on Kaeya with a blank expression.
“Indeed, that’s what I thought when we first met.” Ying nodded, agreeing with what Xing said.
Kaeya: "......"
Hearing their conversation, his lips twitched, and he quickly wiped the playful expression off his face, coughing twice to cover his embarrassment.
"Ahem, anyway, come with me first."
Kaiya gestured for everyone to follow, then turned and strode off, leading everyone toward the direction where old Goethe was.
......
Thanks to Kaiya's efforts, old Goethe generously lent Lin Qiong and his group his large, vacant house as a temporary residence.
Then.
Old Goethe led Lin Qiong and his group to the location of the house.
It was a house with a simple and elegant exterior, bearing the marks of time.
However, because no one had lived there for a long time, the interior was covered in dust, and the air was filled with a musty smell.
Upon seeing this, everyone immediately decided to do a thorough cleaning to bring the long-dormant house back to life.
The deep cleaning continued into the night.
Finally, thanks to everyone's efforts, the entire house was cleaned spotless...
Exhausted, Lin Qiong returned to his room and collapsed onto his bed, soon falling into a deep sleep, spending his second night on Teyvat.
