Star Railway: The Pioneer's Journey

Chapter 387 Igor Haft

Luca blinked his clear, almost naive eyes and asked curiously:

"Boss Schwarzlo, you... know each other?"

Schwarzkopf's camera head turned towards Luca:

"Yes, it was he who helped us shoot down the star core and lift the blockade of Beloborg by the cold wave."

Luca's eyes lit up instantly:

"Ah...you're the one Hoshi mentioned..."

For a moment, he was speechless.

What did Xing say... again?

Hoshino and Luca have met quite a few times. How would she describe the members of the train crew?

Danheng and March 7th need no further introduction; they had met before.

As for Himeko and Welt, Hoshino was quite respectful and didn't use any abstract terms, introducing them with standard titles like "Miss Himeko" and "Uncle Yang."

Only the clouds...

Xing first mentioned to Luca that Yunzhi was the train crew's "big father".

The second time, it was said that Yunzhi was the person with the strongest backing in the world.

The third time, she said Yunzhi was her father...

So Luca's impression of Yunzhi is that he is Xing's father.

It's a very normal thought, so normal that it feels a bit abnormal.

"Star's... father."

Luca's voice unconsciously lowered.

Yun Zhi was not surprised at all; this was clearly what Xing Zai Zai had said.

"Just call him True Lord... You should know Xing's personality a little, don't worry about it."

Luca thought about the stars he usually saw.

They'll rummage through trash cans, smash cans, and even take a game of hide-and-seek with the kids so seriously that they'll hide in an alley until they faint...

Saying that personality is abstract is absolutely correct.

While he was distracted, Yunzhi continued:

"The martial arts ceremony will be held on that flagship, and the contestants will stay there—are only the two of you coming?"

Schwarz replied:

"No, the Great Guardian was worried that we would have difficulty communicating with the outside world, so he sent Lingke and Hook along."

Schwarzlo paused for a moment, then continued:

"Now, Miss Lingke is taking the newly unearthed jade artifact from Belleberg to be restored."

Jade tablets unearthed?

Yun was stunned for a moment.

What an unusual combination! Yu Zhao from the Immortal Boat Alliance actually used the word "unearthed".

"Let's talk about the Jade Signs. The fact that the Celestial Beings of the Immortal Ship use the word 'unearthed' to describe the Jade Signs is really..."

It looks so out of place.

Unable to sense the cloud's confusion, Luca realized what was happening and replied:

"Is that so, Lord? Do you know the great hero of Belloberg, 'Igor Haftar'?"

When the name was mentioned, Luca's eyes sparkled, clearly indicating that he was talking about his idol.

But the name he mentioned...

"Igor..."

Yun searched through the memory areas of her mind:

"Oh...it's him."

The image of the tall, red-haired man who fought Jing Yuan, who was then a valiant guard, to a near-decisive victory on the Starry Sky Martial Arts Ceremony stage came to mind.

Luca asked in surprise:

"You know? So, Igor's voyages to outer space also took him to the celestial Luofu?"

"Yes, he was the champion of the Luofu Star Martial Arts Ceremony hundreds of years ago, and he fought against the current Luofu Cloud Cavalry General."

Yun thought for a moment and added:

"That match was fantastic."

It was truly spectacular.

Although the timing was a bit delicate, Yunzhi was in Luofu at that time and naturally witnessed that grand event.

However, rather than a martial arts competition, the martial arts ceremony was more like a large-scale event to boost morale before a battle.

Because not long after, that thing suddenly arrived with the fertile army of the people, creaking and groaning.

"Excuse me... are you very familiar with Igor?"

Luca noticed that Yunzhi's expression seemed to indicate that he was recalling something unpleasant from the past, and he hesitated.

But I still can't help wanting to know more about my idol.

Schwarz couldn't help but turn his gaze to Yunzhi.

Although it was a machine born after the cold wave, it felt it had a responsibility to record the history of Belleberg.

"Understand? Not really."

Yun and the others headed towards the port, where they would board a starship to travel to the Competition Ship.

Yunzhi, of course, didn't know anything about Igor. The Starry Sky Martial Arts Ceremony had been held so many times, and he remembered every single champion, so he decided to forget about it.

His brain isn't for remembering these things.

"However, I remember that after the martial arts ceremony, he refused all prize money and honors, told everyone about his homeland that had suffered so much, reminded people to be wary of attacks by the antimatter legion, and hoped that people of goodwill in the galaxy would lend a helping hand..."

"But it was indeed a coincidence that even the Immortal Ship Alliance was unable to spare any resources at that time."

Yun Zhi shrugged, smiled, and said helplessly:

"The Immortal Ship Alliance also had its own enemies. At that time, Yao Qing, the most skilled enemy fighter among the alliance's flagships, sent out a beacon signal. Not long after, the Envoy of Abundance suddenly arrived with an army of monstrous creatures to invade the border."

"You can find any old man on the celestial ship to tell you what happened next."

The chaos of the sudden chaos was followed by the chaos of the Moon Drinking. Not long after, Jian Shou Jing Liu fell into demonic possession. By the time Jing Yuan had dealt with everything in Luofu, Igor's hometown, Yalilo-6, had already disappeared from the star map.

But he still sent an invitation to the martial arts ceremony to Yalilo-6. It's quite remarkable that Shence could still remember this after experiencing so much.

Schwarz calmly noted down Yun's words, intending to tell Ling Ke when he got back, thus adding to the somewhat chaotic history of Belloberg.

When Yunzhi spoke of Igor's story, his tone was quite casual.

But Luca still seemed to be able to see the great hero through those few words.

Alone in a foreign land, he tirelessly advocated for his hometown, but fate brought him only disappointment.

Every planet has its own enemies; no one has time to care about a tiny planet.

So in the end, Igor returned to his hometown and fought against the antimatter legion with his family.

"So, Swallow, you just said that Miss Lingke took the jade artifact unearthed by the Alliance to find someone to restore it... Did she go to the Temple?"

If I remember correctly, the current Grand Diviner Fu Xuan... is not here now.

It seems they've gone back to their old home in Yuque.
