Chapter 411. Connecting to the ’NN’
In the vast, open sea, a luxurious ship glided peacefully across the glittering waves. From a distance, it looked serene — like a floating peaceful palace blessed by the heave. But within, it was anything but quiet.
The crew bustled with energy and purpose, each member attending to their duties with practiced ease. Whether polishing weapons, or navigating the ship’s magical arrays, everyone was hard at work.
Perched casually at the edge of the deck sat Su Fei, fishing rod in hand, her long hair gently swaying with the sea breeze. Despite the flurry of activity on board, she had carved out her own tranquil corner of the world. But boredom still loomed like a lazy cloud over her head.
To keep herself entertained, a small, floating projection screen hovered before her, playing a romantic movie like Demon Fox falling in love with a mortal kind of story. She watched it with half interest while keeping an eye on the water.
"Here is your coffee, Ms. Su Fei," said a voice behind her.
An octopus tentacle extended from the side, balancing a fine porcelain cup and saucer, along with a small plate of steaming dumplings and spicy crackers.
"Thanks, Taka," Su Fei replied, taking the cup gracefully and sipping. "Mmm... cinnamon?"
"I added a little spice to suit your taste," Taka replied proudly, his tentacles curling.
Su Fei suddenly pointed toward the waves. "Looks like those are your people?"
Taka turned in the direction she indicated, squinting. "Hah... Miss Su Fei, stop teasing. I’m the only handsome octopus man in this sea!"
"No, seriously," she said, narrowing her eyes. "You forget your cultivation level isn’t high. Look closely."
