146: Feilan, a tree that looks like a head

“I am different from them. They need a large workforce to help them gather supplies, so they can extract a large amount of labor from others as managers!

But I don’t need to rely on that method. I am a Breeding Apostle; the number of women determines the size of my reward. Their indiscriminate approach doesn’t suit me.”

Luo Chen shook his head and continued, “What I need are high-quality women. For the same resources, a high-quality woman brings me greater value.

The only thing I need to consider is the quality of survival supplies. As long as my conditions are good, just like the rich people on Blue Star who had endless money, those women will be willing to follow me.”

“If you’re like that, what love can there be between you and them?” Qin Mengyue asked Luo Chen, looking at him meaningfully.

“Love? What use is love?” Luo Chen laughed, “Love can’t be eaten, and love can’t stop the Train from crashing.”

“Hahaha! I didn’t expect you to be so clear-headed too!” Qin Mengyue and Luo Chen exchanged a smile, a strange glint flashing in their eyes.

Recalling Ning Kexin’s suggestion, she felt a little disappointed. Not being a ‘love-brain’ meant that the method of establishing a deeper relationship with Luo Chen through women would not work… Just a short distance from Luo Chen and the others, at a table and chairs.

“Miss Fei, won’t you really consider joining our Wanderer Commerce Guild? I can try my best to meet any benefits the Golden Carriage (the power represented by the Golden Carriage) can offer you?” Ma Baiyun sat next to Fei Lan, earnestly persuading her.

Fei Lan, as a researcher for the Golden Carriage, would undoubtedly greatly improve his research level if she joined his Wanderer Commerce Guild. At the same time, better products would also bring him more profit.

“No, thank you! I still have things to do, you go about your own business.” Fei Lan shook her head impatiently, her eyes casually glancing at the Voyage in the distance, feeling utterly depressed.

It’s like encountering a persistent rash everywhere you go.

He’s been pestering me for over an hour, and I’ve refused countless times, why doesn’t he understand?

I already said I don’t want to work for other merchants right now; I just want a good vacation.

“Alright then! I’ll be going!” Ma Baiyun looked at the starry sky, sighing in disappointment.

After spending over an hour and still failing to persuade her, he had no choice but to reluctantly give up the idea of recruiting her.

He stood up and said again, “Miss Fei, if you ever want to continue your research in the future, the doors of the Wanderer Commerce Guild are always open for you.”

With that, he turned and returned to his Train.

Fei Lan watched Ma Baiyun’s retreating figure, a rare look of joy appearing on her face.

Finally free of that persistent rash, she felt much lighter.

Immediately, her gaze turned back to the Voyage in the distance. Through her observation, she confirmed that the wisdom tree was on this three-story Train.

She wanted to find the owner of the Train and buy the wisdom tree, but after waiting for over an hour, she hadn’t seen anyone come down.

Fearing that Ma Baiyun might find out, leading to a leak of information and attracting other wisdom emissaries, she didn't dare to approach them directly.

She could only sit there, observing with a feigned casual glance.

“Huh? Someone’s going over.”

Suddenly, she saw a man with a group of women actually walking towards the target Train, seemingly about to board it.

A glint of joy flashed in her eyes, and she quickly got up and followed them.

Luo Chen arrived at the Train, just about to open the door and get in, when suddenly, a beautiful woman with short golden hair appeared before him.

This person was Fei Lan, who had rushed over.

Her powerful strength allowed her to effortlessly reach them before Luo Chen could board the Train.

“Beautiful lady, are you…?”

Luo Chen looked at the stunning woman blocking his way, asking with a frown.

“Handsome man! I have something I want to ask you.” Fei Lan forced out what she thought was a friendly smile.

“Ask away!” Luo Chen nodded.

The powerful aura emanating from her posed a great threat to him, forcing him to adopt a more cautious attitude.

“Can you sell me your wisdom tree?”

wisdom tree? Luo Chen and Luo Wan Ning’s pupils both contracted when they heard this term.

He had never known what this thing was for, only discovering that it had a calming effect on the mind, otherwise, he knew nothing about it.

Later, when he no longer needed this effect, he gave it to Luo Wan Ning. He wondered what this woman’s purpose was in coming to him?

Fei Lan didn’t know Luo Chen’s thoughts. She continued to meticulously describe the appearance of the wisdom tree to him: “It’s a tree that looks like a head, with many patterns on its leaves…”

Listening to Fei Lan’s description, Luo Chen confirmed that she was talking about his own tree.

“How did you know?” Luo Chen asked.

Since the other party had come to him, she must have a way of finding it and confirming that he had it. Any further attempts to conceal it would be futile.

“This! The god of wisdom’s token has some kind of connection with the wisdom tree,” Fei Lan said, pulling out a white circular token.

Luo Wan Ning stared intently at the token in Fei Lan’s hand, her eyes filled with joy.

Finally, she encountered it!

She hadn’t seen the god of wisdom’s awakening room at the Wanderer Commerce Guild earlier. Just as she was disappointed, thinking there was no hope of awakening in the short term, she didn’t expect it to come to her.

“Can the god of wisdom’s token find it? Is this thing very valuable?” Luo Chen asked.

Fei Lan nodded, “Very valuable. Many wisdom emissaries are looking for it now.”

Qin Mengyue looked at the two with surprise in her eyes. She realized that Luo Chen seemed to have obtained something very precious, yet also very dangerous.

“Let’s talk inside my Train!” Luo Chen glanced left and right, then said.

Since the other party didn’t forcefully break in and steal, she should be a reasonable person, so he didn’t need to worry too much about her being hostile.

If the other party had malicious intentions, he could still retrieve his nuclear shotgun from inside the Train to counterattack once he returned.

The group entered the Train. Since none of them had eaten dinner, Luo Chen decided to hold the conversation in the dining car.

“The environment on your Train is quite nice!” Fei Lan sat down opposite Luo Chen, smiling.

Qin Mengyue and Ning Kexin put down their water cups and also nodded. They found that the various facilities on Luo Chen’s Train were much better than on their own Train.

The entire Train was clean and tidy, brightly lit, and the various facilities and supplies made her feel like she was back on Blue Star.

Compared to their Trains, it was like the difference between a luxurious villa and a shantytown.

Luo Chen smiled noncommittally and looked at Luo Wan Ning beside him, saying, “Wan Ning, go and bring down the wisdom tree!”

“Do I need to leave?”

Seeing Luo Chen getting to the main topic, Qin Mengyue asked.

“No need!” Luo Chen shook his head.

Since the other party already knew, there was no point in avoiding it. It was better to discuss it openly.

“What is the use of the wisdom tree? Why is it worth your effort to find it?” Luo Chen asked, puzzled.
