Chapter 142: As Long As We Work Together... Huh? Where's Uncle Kevin?
"Ah! It's Stelle! You're finally back. With both you and Dan Heng gone, I had to deal with those monsters and enemies all by myself. I couldn't help but feel a bit of that lonely-at-the-top vibe."
On the other side, March 7th immediately hugged Stelle who had just walked over, then complained with some dissatisfaction: "That Stellaron Hunter named Kafka is really terrifying. She even secretly cast that 'Spirit Whisper' thing on you... It's a good thing you're okay, otherwise I, March 7th, would never let her off!"
"And also, after this, you really need to be more careful. Don't get fooled by those bad women again!"
March 7th earnestly advised Stelle, sounding exactly like an old mother lecturing her own daughter. Unfortunately, Stelle also acted like one of those countless daughters being lectured, her eyes glazing over as she stared blankly at the other side, lost in thought.
After spacing out for a good few seconds, Stelle suddenly snapped back to reality, blinked her eyes, and asked in confusion: "Snacks? What snacks?"
"?!"
"Ahhh, you're really going to drive me crazy!"
March 7th was truly helpless against Stelle's feigned ignorance. When she turned her head to look at her other companion, she noticed that Dan Heng was currently being firmly held by Sushang along with that Luocha fellow, and they seemed to be discussing something. That guy (Dan Heng) even shook his head at her, as if telling her not to go over and cause trouble.
What's the meaning of this? What do they mean by this? Don't they know who's usually the one worrying about them?
However, when her eyes suddenly caught sight of that Luocha, March 7th seemed to remember something. She quickly turned to the distracted Welt beside her and asked: "By the way, Mr. Yang! What was up with you earlier? Why did you and Uncle Kevin suddenly keep staring at that Luocha guy... You shouldn't know him, right?"
"Could it be that you just instinctively felt he didn't seem like a good person? But that's not right either. In my impression, Mr. Yang definitely isn't the type to judge people by their appearance."
Such a strange scene happening right in front of her—how could the ever-curious March 7th possibly turn a blind eye?
"So how did you notice something was off?" Stelle had just arrived with Pardo and the others and wasn't very familiar with what happened earlier.
"By my 'intuition'," March 7th replied very straightforwardly.
Stelle: "......"
Fortunately, Welt didn't dwell too much on this issue. He had already considered that his kids would definitely ask such questions. So, after sighing softly, he answered quietly: "Well... there's nothing I can't tell you about it."
"It's like how Kevin and I come from the same world. We must have experienced many stories and conflicts in the past, but for me, that's already ancient history from many years ago, so it's not worth bringing up again."
"But you should know that in the universe, there are actually countless worlds that are similar yet different. And in these worlds, there are also countless people who are similar yet distinctly different."
Even though, in this vast universe, there are far more races than just humanity. But someone once conducted an incomplete statistic—compared to the combined total of all other races, the number of human civilizations always leads by about one percent.
"So we often encounter people with similar appearances in different worlds. These people might have completely different personalities... For example, in some world, a girl as cute as little March might be an interstellar thief."
Welt's original intention was just to give a small example, but Stelle nodded her head in agreement at this very moment: "That's right. I've actually been suspecting her for a long time."
"Hey! What kind of talk is that! I'm the galaxy's number one good girl!"
And here she was, March 7th, just worrying about this person a moment ago. How could she turn around and deny it so quickly!
Welt coughed helplessly twice before continuing: "But... in more cases, their fates follow similar trajectories. And I've met two people who resemble this Luocha in appearance. They were... not exactly good people."
"So the moment I saw him, my instincts made my spine chill. Although little March is right—we shouldn't judge people by their appearance—I personally couldn't ignore it..."
"Ah... sorry, I shouldn't force you to accept my judgment. Besides, Dan Heng has already explained that Luocha's original intention was indeed to accompany him here to help us. We really shouldn't wrong a good person without any evidence."
The guy enthusiastically came over to help, and then you turn around and point at his nose saying he doesn't look like a good person—what kind of thing is that?
"Alright... But I still want to say, for the usually steady Mr. Yang to make such an expression... I, I really can't imagine what kind of big bad guy the person Mr. Yang mentioned is. What earth-shattering, resentment-inducing thing did he do to Mr. Yang?!"
After all, Welt isn't like them—each one waking up not even knowing their own name. It's said that Mr. Yang only ventured into space after saving the world. Those who oppose him must be super-villains who seek to destroy the world!
That's simply terrifying! If that guy really dared to appear in front of Mr. Yang, she, March 7th, would absolutely be the first one not to let him off!
Protect the best Mr. Yang!
"Alright, alright. The guy I mentioned... he has actually already achieved his obsession. Presumably, there's nothing in the current universe that can really pique his interest anymore. You don't need to let your imaginations run wild."
The ever-kind Mr. Yang rarely raised his little cane and gently tapped March 7th on the forehead.
"Ouch! I get it, Mr. Yang..."
It's just that while that guy himself might be happy now, he left behind quite a mess for others... And now he can't even compare to the other party; he can't even find his way home yet.
"Ah, one cannot live only in the past. The urgent task now is to quickly head to the Alchemy Commission to support that Master Diviner. I have a vague premonition that the enemies this time definitely won't be limited to just the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus." Welt spoke very seriously.
Otherwise, the outcome wouldn't be worthy of everything happening on the Xianzhou and what he just experienced.
"No matter how many enemies there are! Our team is unprecedentedly strong now. As long as we work together, no matter what enemies..."
March 7th's impassioned speech was only halfway through when her eyes glanced to the other side and noticed it was already completely empty.
"Huh? Where did Uncle Kevin and the others go...?"
