[Stelle: @Victor, I'm at the space station, and someone here wants to meet you.]
One morning, Victor was meditating and cultivating when he suddenly received a message from his beloved Stelle.
[Victor: Let me guess, that person is Herta?]
In the entire Herta Space Station, the only person who would be interested in him is the famous Ms. Herta.
It wasn't difficult to see from her hobby of collecting all kinds of strange items that she was fascinated by unusual phenomena and extraordinary creatures.
Obviously, in the eyes of this genius researcher, he was precisely such an extraordinary being.
Just like Stelle.
[Stelle: That's right.]
Stelle's answer confirmed Victor's guess.
[Victor: Wait a moment, I'll be there soon. I also have something to ask her.]
[Stelle: What's the matter?]
[Victor: You'll know later.]
After saying that, Victor closed the chat group interface.
He stood up and walked out of his room.
But he happened to meet Shinobu who was walking toward him.
"Are you going to Sister Stelle's place?"
Shinobu had also seen the conversation between the two in the group and knew what Victor was going to do next.
Victor nodded and said, "That's right, but before I go, I still have to prepare some things."
"What are you preparing?" asked Shinobu.
"Of course it's a gift for meeting someone," Victor replied as a matter of course. "Since I'm meeting someone, I can't go empty-handed, right?"
Victor's answer surprised Shinobu.
Her intuition told her that the gift Victor was going to prepare for the meeting should not be an ordinary gift.
"What are you preparing? Do you need my help?" Shinobu continued to ask.
Victor shook his head. "It's just the original manuals on alchemy, artifact refining, and formation arrays. I can get them myself."
As mentioned before, the uploaded abilities and items wouldn't disappear, it was like making an identical copy and selling it in the chat group mall.
Therefore, Victor still kept the original copies of those immortal cultivation techniques, alchemy manuals, artifact refining manuals, and basic formation array manuals.
But previously, because Krul needed to learn alchemy, artifact refining, and formation arrays, she had asked him to teach her.
However, he needed to enter seclusion at that time, so he gave the original copies of the three manuals to Krul and let her comprehend them on her own.
So now he had to go to Krul and retrieve them.
At this moment, Krul was not at home, but had gone to Totsuki Academy with Erina Nakiri and Hisako Arato.
"You plan to give those away?"
You're planning to give away something so valuable?
"I won't give them away as gifts. I'll ask Herta to make three copies for herself. I wasn't planning to give away the originals."
"After all, what I'm going to ask her to do next is worth these three valuable rewards."
At Totsuki Academy.
Krul stood beside Erina Nakiri, watching her every step intently, not daring to be distracted.
Soon, Erina Nakiri prepared a portion of West Lake Vinegar Fish and placed it in front of Krul.
"Have you learned all the techniques just now?"
Krul nodded. "I think I learned it."
"Then you can try it out in practice."
Erina Nakiri left the cooking station and gave her place to Krul.
"You have learned the seasoning ratio, heat control, and cooking techniques. Just follow my steps again."
"Mm."
Just as Krul was about to pick up the kitchen knife to prepare the fish, Victor suddenly appeared in front of them.
"Mm! As soon as I got here, I smelled an appetizing aroma. Was this made by Krul?"
Victor's eyes instantly locked on the West Lake Vinegar Fish on the table.
"Still one of my favorite dishes."
Krul shook her head slightly. "This isn't something I made, but something Erina just demonstrated."
"Mr. Victor, why are you here? Do you need us to go back and prepare lunch?"
Erina Nakiri glanced at the clock on the wall. It was already half past ten in the morning, and it was indeed almost time to go back and prepare lunch.
"No, I'm here just to retrieve something from Krul..."
Victor briefly recounted the purpose of his visit.
Upon hearing this, Krul immediately took out the original manuals on alchemy, artifact refining, and formation arrays from the storage ring on her hand.
Speaking of which, this storage ring was made by Victor for Krul previously.
There were also ones for Kanae, Alisa, and Kanao Tsuyuri.
Victor and Shinobu didn't need storage rings because they had the infinitely large chat group system space.
After getting what he wanted, Victor directly opened the dimensional door and went to the world where Stelle was.
Before leaving, he also took away the West Lake Vinegar Fish that Erina Nakiri had just made.
On the Astral Express, when Victor crossed through the dimensional gate and arrived here, the appetizing aroma instantly filled the entire carriage.
"You understand me. You know I didn't have breakfast, so you brought me some delicious food when you came here."
Stelle snatched the plate from Victor's hand, used her spiritual power to construct a pair of chopsticks, and began to eat with relish.
"Why is there only fish but no rice?"
Victor shrugged. "How would I know you didn't have breakfast? I brought this here just because it was ready. I just wanted to satisfy your craving."
"Wow! It smells so good! What are you eating?"
Markh 7th also came following the scent.
Seeing the two of them eating with gusto, she couldn't help but come over out of curiosity.
"Want to join us?"
Victor conjured up a pair of chopsticks and handed them over.
Markh 7th naturally wouldn't refuse.
Soon, the three of them worked together to finish off all the delicious food.
Markh 7th still felt a little unsatisfied.
There was no way, by the time she came over, half of the fish had already been eaten by the two of them, so it naturally wasn't enough.
"Are you two the only ones in the train? Where are the others?"
Victor swept the entire train with his spiritual sense, but found that apart from the two of them and Pam, there was no one else on the train.
Markh 7th explained, "Himeko and Welt boarded the space station first, and Dan Heng stayed on the Xianzhou."
"Dan Heng actually stayed on the Xianzhou? Does he not intend to be a Nameless anymore?"
Could it be due to the butterfly effect?
If that's the case, the Astral Express crew will be less fun in the future.
Markh 7th shook her head. "No, he's just separated from us temporarily. We need to go back and pick him up after we finish our rest here."
Stelle also added, "When we left, Dan Heng was still in seclusion on the Xianzhou to make a breakthrough, so he was unable to catch up."
"I see. Does this mean that Dan Heng is about to reach Foundation Establishment?"
Victor remembered that during the last offline gathering, Dan Heng was still at the tenth level of Qi Training.
He was the one with the third highest cultivation level in the entire Astral Express group.
The first was their own Stelle, the second was Welt Yang, Himeko was fourth, and Markh 7th was the lowest.
