My Notoriety Spreads Throughout the World-Chapter 369 - 322: Northern Territory Journey

"I, of course, have one." As Chichu Chun said this, she stammered, and Xu Xiaoyou immediately saw through her little thoughts.

"I thought you were a die-hard loyal player of Insect Race Star Sea."

"My favorite is still the old-fashioned video games, okay? Away from keyboards and arcades, who is hyping up these virtual tactile games with no control at all..." Chichu Chun's voice grew smaller, "I'm just playing critically."

"I do have a Three Tier level seven Assassin account, skills and achievements are all unlocked, haha..."

Seeing Xu Xiaoyou's expression, which seemed to say everything without saying anything, Chichu Chun deflated like a punctured balloon and said dejectedly:

"Okay, I admit, it's quite interesting after playing, although Insect Race Star Sea is my favorite, I can play Insect Race Star Sea within Oasis, or even older games like Contra..."

Chichu Chun's tone was melancholic,

"The old-fashioned video games lost completely."

"As long as you have it, as long as there's some room to maneuver, I can think of a way to turn things around, the rest we'll talk about on the road."

Xu Xiaoyou finished her portion of baked tomato pasta and suddenly stood up.

"Where are you going?"

"Where are we going." Xu Xiaoyou corrected.

Before Chichu Chun could react, she continued, "This time, my return to Chichu Heaven to find you is not just about Oasis matters, do you still remember Sebastian?"

Chichu Chun recalled the old man, and she obviously knew more inside information. She lowered her head heavily and remained silent.

"The reward he left for me indicated that you and I need to go to the Northern Territory Bank together. I think he also left something for you. I've booked a ticket to the Northern Territory, it's this afternoon, prepare yourself..."

The image of her last argument with the blue-haired girl flashed through Xu Xiaoyou's mind, her eyes moved slightly, and she said in a calm tone:

"Will you go with me?"

Chichu Chun tilted her head slightly and nodded forcefully, "Of course, I've been bored for a long time, I've been wanting to leave here, wait for me You, I'll go pack up at home and come back quickly!"

Watching Chichu Chun run out the door, Xu Xiaoyou looked at a short distance: "Come out, there's no need to hide, just say what's on your mind."

Two figures walked out from the shadows, emerging from the building's shade, precisely Evergreen Ivy and Tiger Tail Orchid, their faces solemn and serious, a departure from their usual recklessness. They exchanged glances, seemingly deciding who should speak first.

"'Dark Gold Rose', esteemed one."

"No need to be so formal," Xu Xiaoyou said, "Without the support of Dawn Society, that performance wouldn't have gone so smoothly."

"Welcome to our ranks, My Queen."

"Queen of Hearts, hold onto this."

Evergreen Ivy tossed a Key at her, Xu Xiaoyou caught it with a flip of her hand. It looked like a heart-shaped box, with a textured surface, carved with a heart crown, and two long swords crossed in front of the crown, exuding an invisible sense of nobility and power.

Xu Xiaoyou couldn't see through the interior of this heart-shaped box; the energy contained within was like an endless sea and river, just witnessing a corner seemed as if it would swallow her up.

"When faced with unsolvable problems, raise and use it towards the sky, it symbolizes daylight and dawn."

"Lonely individuals can't avoid the long night; it breaks dawn from the early morning, surpassing even the early white of the east."

"Are you so certain I'll need your help?" Xu Xiaoyou raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Yes, when you raise it to the sky, the light it emits will illuminate the world, all hardships and long nights will end, the world will renew, everything will revive, hibernating insects will stir, buds will break through the frost..."

"What, are you going to move your entire stronghold Daylight City over here?" Xu Xiaoyou spread her hands.

When she realized the two were looking at her seriously, she understood that her casual joke seemed to be true.

"Then, I'll keep it."

Xu Xiaoyou collected her flippancy and said solemnly.

"Also, isn't she your King, aren't you her Queen? Why call me Queen?"

The two Fifth Tier Cleaners exchanged glances, both seeing a flicker of light in each other's eyes that was hard to notice.

"Because the heart is the most noble suit, and the King of Dawn Society is forever one."

...

The silence of the Deep Blue Sea Path was broken by a long whistle, as the steel giant beast of a thousand meters roared across the sea surface.

As the view zoomed in, the detailed appearance of the steel dragon could be seen, a nearly kilometer-long car body covered in rugged heavy scales, the fine nicks and rust telling of its glorious past.

The copper bull's head at the front of the car had red eyes, nostrils spewing hot white steam, roaring towards the sky as it charged over the sea towards the distant horizon, sparks flew where it passed, raising large white splashes and mist.

At this moment, the internal combustion furnace of the beast ran rampantly, the regulator directed the high-temperature steam from burning coal slag through complex pipes to the air compressors, which were then processed by the main wind cylinder and sent to all the power components of the train car, the excess exhaust was discharged to the sky through long exhaust pipes.

Inside the lavishly decorated carriage, Chichu Chun pressed her entire face against the glass, looking out at the blue sky beyond the window, sea birds fluttering through the scattered white clouds, and the receding sound of waves accompanied by the bird's calls.

The vast and magnificent scene lifted her spirits significantly; if the window of this Kuiniu Train headed for the Northern Territory could open, this young master would surely have already leaned half her body out.

Sitting beside her, Xu Xiaoyou had a preoccupied look.

With a shift of their view, the two girls embarked on their journey to the Northern Territory.

This Kuiniu Train was jointly built by Jiulong Message, Celestial Wings Space-Time, and Chichu Heavy Industry. It resembles a steam locomotive from a thousand years ago on the outside, but it harbors numerous core technologies, such as not requiring any tracks, allowing it to travel to various parts of the world like the Heart's Desire train, and the Dragon Steel Copper armor covering its exterior can withstand a full-force strike from a Fifth Tier Cleaner.

This train was initially constructed for the purpose of transporting large military equipment within the Chichu Celestial Realm during wartime. In the most notable battle of Octopus Tower City decades ago, it simultaneously carried forty-three War Titans, earning it the external acclaim of being the National Guardian Bull in overcoming adversity!

Now, after being decommissioned, the Kuiniu Train was taken over by Northern Territory Heavy Industry, becoming an essential link for south-to-north traffic within the Chichu Celestial Realm.

Who knows how this train defies the law of energy conservation, as a small pile of coal slag is enough for it to haul its thousands of tons heavy body for an entire day. The core technology of this world is just that strange, that misguided.

Despite technological advancement, people's mental states are increasingly languid. The glory of technology builds high towers, yet it can't illuminate the pitiful ones in the shadows.

"May I help you with something?" The waiter wearing a golden mask was dressed luxuriously, with mechanical limbs reflecting the gloss of ceramic, like a beautiful sculpture; it was the autonomous robot of this train, with bionic attendants distributed throughout the many carriages.

This was their private compartment, and apart from the attendants, other passengers weren't allowed into the front first-class compartments.

"A cup of lime tea!" Chichu Chun cheerfully made a finger gesture, she too was seeing such intelligent, extravagantly designed bionics for the first time, they seemed straight out of the Golden Era.

"Keep an eye out around us, if there's any trouble, call me."

With that, Xu Xiaoyou took out an immersion device and put it on her head.

She didn't plan to idle away the two-day tedious train journey; she would use the time to level up her account, at least clearing the Oasis novice tutorial.

After a burst of colorful light, her consciousness began to sink into the deep sea, as illusion and reality flipped at this moment.

"Oasis immersion device is starting up... now connecting to the VeilNet."

"Loading... Scene modeling is being generated."

"Loading... Retrieving character data."

"Loading... Creating the instance."

"Welcome, Please login... Welcome to Oasis, esteemed guest, please log in."

The light brightened, and an entirely different scenery unfolded before the girl.
