Tree King: What? I've become the Abundant Pharmacist?

Chapter 168 Star Core Hunter Eve

"Tell me about it," Eve said, already intrigued.

“A star core, and the help of all the star core hunters,” Kafka stated frankly.

"I believe you won't refuse this offer."

After hearing Kafka's words, Eve fell into deep thought.

Indeed, this offer is very tempting.

But you should first see what the other party's requirements are.

"What are your conditions?" Eve asked.

“As expected, I knew it. Miss Eve is one of us.” A smile appeared on Kaffa’s lips.

"So, everyone, do you know about Luofu?"

Walter Yang spoke up: "We know about the Immortal Ship Luofu, one of the six giant ships of the Immortal Ship Alliance."

"But what you don't know is that this celestial ship is very close to you now, a distance that can be reached with just two warps."

"So, you want us to change our destination to the Immortal Boat Luofu?" Himeko had already understood Kafka's meaning.

“That’s right.” Kafka nodded.

"Then what's the reason?" Himeko continued to ask.

"Before the 45th system time, a star core on Luofu... exploded."

“What an unexpected disaster, isn’t it?” Kafka sighed.

"A star core?" Eve thought for a moment.

"So, one of the conditions of the so-called transaction, the star core, means I need to go to Luofu myself to get it?" Eve asked rhetorically.

“Of course not.” Kafka spread her hands and said with a smile, “We Star Core Hunters have come with sincerity.”

"As for the star core on Luofu, it shall be occupied by the capable."

After listening to Kafka's words, Eve nodded slightly.

"But Kaffa, whatever your plans are, I advise you not to get involved with Luofu," Himeko warned.

"The Immortal Ship Alliance is not as easy to talk to as we are. Once you are targeted by the hunters, the roles of hunter and prey will be reversed, and the alliance will chase you to the ends of the universe."

"Are you sure you're easy to talk to?" Kafka looked at Eve.

His eyes were filled with grievance, as if he were telling of the injustice he had just suffered.

Everyone followed the gaze and looked at Eve.

"Ahem..." At this moment, Eve slowly raised her hand and greeted him gently.

"Um... In short, the alliance is in danger." Himeko sighed helplessly.

Despite saying that, she actually felt that Miss Eve was in far greater danger than a single fairy ship.

“I know, but I don’t care,” Kafka said nonchalantly.

"Alright, let's just get straight to the point, stop beating around the bush, Kaffa."

"It's very simple. This star core has nothing to do with us, but the Immortal Ship Alliance has already pinned the blame on the star core hunters."

“My companion Blade was taken away by the Cloud Cavalry. I want to bring him back, resolve this Star Core crisis, and clear our names,” Kafka explained.

"None of your business? Who would believe that? What a coincidence! You appeared right after the star core erupted..."

“Besides, you have no connection with us. What does it matter to us whether the Star Core Hunter is innocent or not?” March 7th questioned.

Kafka smiled but did not answer the question.

Walter Young rested his chin on his hand and asked, "Miss Kaffa, I don't understand your intention."

"The Immortal Ship Alliance has an envoy in charge on the surface, so can't they handle a star core?"

"But if you asked us to rescue your companions, what makes you so confident that the Star Train has any influence in the Immortal Ship Luofu?"

“It’s very simple, I can tell you the script that Elio predicted.”

“If you don’t go to ‘Luofu,’ the star core will eventually contaminate the entire celestial ship, and about half of the inhabitants on board will perish,” Kafka said very seriously.

"As for whether the train can be mentioned in Luofu..." Kafka turned her gaze to Eve, her meaning already quite clear.

"How is this possible? The Immortal Ship is so powerful, how could it not even handle a single star core?" March 7 shook his head, expressing his disbelief.

"Whether you believe it or not, the script has been finalized, so the event is bound to happen."

"Of course you can stay out of it. Before the star core pollutes this airspace, you can initiate a jump and go to the next world. But in time, this star track will be blocked again."

“Pam…” Upon hearing Kafka’s words, Pam hesitated.

If the stellar orbits of exploration are blocked, then what is the point of exploration?

We can tolerate the unknown, but we must never succumb to the unknowable; this is the creed of exploration.

If they don't go, does that mean they're letting the unknown come into being?

Kafka smiled calmly, "Such a brave and fearless pioneer, such a benevolent nameless stranger, surely wouldn't stand idly by."

Everyone fell silent.

"Your companion, the one named Blade, also couldn't escape it, right?" Himeko asked.

"Well, I have no comment on that," Kaffa shook her head.

“There’s one more thing.” Kafka turned her gaze to Eve again.

"In the script, at some point in the future, Miss Eve will be attacked by a powerful force from outer space, and even the train will be greatly affected."

"what?"

Everyone was shocked to hear Kafka's words.

"The power of outer space?" Eve asked in confusion.

“This is from Elio’s script, but I don’t know the specifics,” Kafka explained.

"And the deal I'm going to talk to you about is precisely about this crucial matter."

"What exactly are you trying to say?" Eve asked.

"If you believe me, I can tell you that in Elio's script, this attack by an extraterrestrial force is bound to happen, it's just a matter of sooner or later."

"The extent of Weili's attack can be controlled."

Kafka held up her little finger. "It can be as big as destroying an entire galaxy, or as small as a pebble smaller than a fingernail flying by."

After listening to Kafka's words, Eve fell into deep thought.

After a long silence, Eve finally asked, "So, what are the terms of the deal?"

"It's simple. I need you to temporarily join the Star Core Hunters and work with our people."

"What? You want Eve to join the Star Core Hunters?" March 7th exclaimed in shock.

The other passengers on the train were also shocked.

"It's only temporary."

“This…” Eve hesitated.

“Miss Eve, in some ways, our goals are aligned.”

Seeing that Eve was still hesitating, Kafka sighed and held up one finger.

"In addition to the above conditions, we'll also include a year's supply of small cakes."

"No, three years."

"make a deal."

"Okay, so where are our people now?"
