Chapter 708: Chapter 346: Needing Others (Part 3)

The vast crowd gathered on one side of the ancient giant ship, marveling at the legendary Shadow Shipyard while searching for a temporary place of rest under guidance.

Watching this scene, Li Ang said to the people around him, "Let’s go. It’s time to seize the Key of Activation."

Xiaomo and Farina nodded in agreement, and Meimei, willing to join the battle, also stepped forward.

Li Ang noticed that the expressions of the three young girls from the Star Flower Travel Corps seemed different.

"What’s wrong?"

Zoe pouted, "It’s just that it feels like we haven’t helped at all."

"Not necessarily."

Li Ang reached out and placed his hand on her head. Although the three had doubts, they said no more.

"Go and take a look at our ship, then wait for me to return."

The group set off along the corridor, entering the Sky Flame Shipyard directly from the inside.

At the moment of opening the Machine Core Tunnel door, Morales covered everyone in shadow, quickly spreading it outward. Seeing no guards relieved them slightly.

In the core area, every move must be cautious, especially since the four who were just arrested told Li Ang that Boliya, Fres, Kleem had all been called into the Sky Flame Shipyard. This was not an ordinary gathering; Li Ang wasn’t sure what was happening there.

According to Ivynis, the Destruction Battleship wouldn’t be activated so soon; it still needed to consume more ship bodies.

Due to Li Ang’s protection as the Annihilator, combined with Morales’s rare Shadow Talent, they moved forward smoothly, gradually approaching the location Loken pointed to.

The goal was not the manager’s office or the shipyard meeting room. Although the Sky Flame manager nominally managed the shipyard, the real controller here had always been Karon, Loken’s former partner, who should now be quite old and had always wielded power behind the scenes.

Karon had a secret room with a small workshop attached; the remodeling and storage of the startup chip were most likely there.

Following the path forward, the surroundings gradually became deserted, and even the occasional sightings of Imperial Influence were no longer seen.

Meimei suddenly spoke up, "Li Ang."

Her call made everyone think something was wrong at first, then realized she had something to say.

Xiaomo immediately displayed a grimacing yet pained expression; Li Ang noticed early on that after discovering Meimei looked very similar to Meluna, he always had something to say but was held back.

"What’s up?"

"Did you mean what you said just now?"

"What words?"

Li Ang felt Xiaomo was quite excited, clearly having misinterpreted his intentions.

But Meluna also stood quietly, with magic power rising around her as she trembled.

Alright, she wasn’t the only one who misunderstood.

This girl... Li Ang felt helpless; she suddenly said something to cause misunderstanding.

"It’s about needing companions or something."

"Oh, that sentence I said to the child, huh?"

Everyone realized suddenly; Xiaomo showed a relieved expression, obviously thinking "so that child was touched too."

But Farina and Li Ang, who knew Meimei’s background, didn’t think so, whereas Meluna wasn’t concerned.

"Did you mean it truthfully? Do you actually think that?" Meimei pursued.

"Of course." 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

"Alright, that’s all. It’s just that there might be a lot of battles coming, and before that, I wanted to confirm."

Meimei then returned to her silent demeanor, her little face remaining exquisite and pretty, naturally eliciting compassion even when looking dejected.

Li Ang hadn’t figured out why she was acting this way, but Farina called him to the side.
