“I have some work to do for now, so please wait here for a bit until the ship arrives” the old man smiled .
“Please go ahead” Gu Qing Shan clasped his fist and said .
The old man nodded and quickly went away .
Gu Qing Shan looked towards the three other guests .
Of the three, the most eye-catching was the one floating in midair, a man wearing a black cloak that was letting out a blurred presence .
Although he was already trying his best to conceal his power radiation, space itself was still resonating with him .
As if the world would change at his order .
This was the power of a Demi .
Demis were born with a natural affinity to anything and everything .
In other words, this was a Divinity .
A descendant of Old Gods .
Gu Qing Shan was surprised .
He didn’t think that he’d randomly meet a Divinity here .
However, the Divinity in black was standing at the edge of the waiting room, carefully maintaining distance from the other two guests .
The Demi is… afraid?
Gu Qing Shan’s gaze turned to the other two guests .
They were a large rooster with a bright red comb on his head, and an automatic machine gun .
Yep, an automatic machine gun .
At least, he looked like an automatic machine gun .
“Ahahaha, did you know? The last time I got excited and performed a dance in our World Layer, I actually managed to summon three space monster”
The large rooster was excitedly recounting a story, its spit flying everywhere .
Gu Qing Shan just stood and listened .
Grove world’s language .

He suddenly had that thought .
Strange, why did I know that?
Gu Qing Shan looked down .
The Infinite Worlds Standard Dictionary was still letting out faint whispers .
It was now that Gu Qing Shan understood, the large rooster was speaking in another language .
If it was him from before, he wouldn’t have understood what the rooster was saying at all .
Seems like the blue book was doing its job .
Learning countless languages in 100 breaths .
What unimaginable potency .
Only the owner of the book, which was himself, could hear its whispers . The book was helping Gu Qing Shan with learning the languages of all known civilizations .
Gu Qing Shan held the book a bit tighter as he continued to learn more languages while listening to the small talk between the rooster and the automatic machine gun .
“I’m telling you, space octopuses are actually quite delicious, it’s a shame that there aren’t many chefs who could make that dish”
“Is that so? How unfortunate, I haven’t tasted any space monster before” the automatic machine gun was a bit sorrowful .
“Why not? Space monsters are easy to catch aren’t they?” the big rooster wondered .
“If I attack, everything would be destroyed, there’s no meat left to actually eat” the automatic machine gun sighed .
“Then what do you usually eat?”
“I buy food and cook for myself, or go to bars and restaurants, places like that for a quick drink and meal” the automatic machine gun answered .
“That’s good enough, some of those places have really good chefs”
As the big rooster said so, he glanced over at the Demi .
Then he lowered his voice: “Ah right, have you ever tried Divinity?”
The automatic machine gun spoke regretfully: “Divinities are the same, if I touch them they just turn to dust . I’m just not lucky enough to taste such things”
“Can’t you hold back a little?”
“I only used 1/10000th of my power, but they still turn to scraps”
“…Poor you” the big rooster said with an understanding tone .
As they spoke, their gazes both fell onto the Demi .
The Demi didn’t understand what they were saying, but instinctively took a bit more distance from them .
“Look at him, a country bumpkin who can’t even communicate properly, he doesn’t even understand what we’re saying” the big rooster scoffed .

The automatic machine gun suddenly said: “There’s also another brat here, but he was brought in by the Keeper himself”
The chicken and gun looked over to Gu Qing Shan .
Gu Qing Shan smiled and greeted them: “Hello you both”
The automatic machine gun and big rooster were both a bit surprised .
Because he just spoke in Grove world’s language .
This brat understands us?
They both thought the same thing .
“Hello” the rooster changed to another language and greeted him back .
The automatic machine gun also used another language .
With the same friendly tone as the rooster, he said something completely different: “What’s your name?”
Without understanding anything, these two sentences would both seem like greetings .
But they had completely different meanings .
Gu Qing Shan spoke to the big rooster: “Yes, hello”
“I’m Gu Qing Shan” he answered the automatic machine gun .
The big rooster whistled, impressed .
His pronunciation of both languages were very standard and fluent .
The big rooster then smiled: “We were just talking about food just now, Gu boy, what’s your take on this subject?”
“I usually cook my own food, and I brew my own liquor as well” Gu Qing Shan answered .
“Hah, seems like you’re quite confident in that” the big rooster was intrigued .
He only looks about 20 years old .
Fluent in so many languages despite being so young; plus he was led in here by the Keeper himself, such a person wouldn’t have come from simple background .
At this time, a large ship slowly approached the lighthouse from the sky .
It docked directly adjacent to the lighthouse, hovering in mid air .
The Spire KeeperAssociation’s old man stood at the head of the ship .
“Would our guests please board the ship, we’re about to take off”
The big rooster lightly jumped and flew onto the ship’s deck .

The automatic machine gun also slowly hopped aboard the ship along its plank .
Gu Qing Shan just walked up the plank like normal .
After everyone else had come aboard, the black cloaked Demi finally began to board the ship .
This Demi appeared to be quite anxious .
“Forward”
The old man ordered .
The ship began to move, gradually moving away from the lighthouse as it took to the sky .
Gu Qing Shan stood hanging onto the railing of the ship, watching the ocean .
The ocean waves began to swell violently .
At some unknown point, the lighthouse had disappeared .
The black shadows that were standing around the lighthouse were also nowhere to be seen .
Boom!
The world began to collapse .
This scene was extremely familiar as Gu Qing Shan had just experienced it not too long ago .
He let out a sigh .
The four guests just stared at the collapsing world and said nothing .
A few moments later .
The ship went into the space vortex, thoroughly leaving that world behind .
The automatic machine gun and big rooster paid no mind to this at all .
They seemed to have gotten used to trips like these .
The automatic machine gun pulled the big rooster over to ask what octopus space monsters taste like .
The big rooster took some time to consider his words and started describing it .
The black cloaked Demi stared closely at the old man, seemingly waiting for something .
Sure enough, the old man turned around to look at the four guests .
“Gentlemen, we’ve now begun our journey, please prepare your boarding fees” he politely and amiably told them .
The big rooster took out a chest engraved with numerous gems from out of nowhere and pushed it over to him .
The old man took the chest and only gauged it a bit in his hand without checking the content before putting it away .
“Glad to do business with you” the old man said .
The automatic machine gun was currently trembling nonstop .
“Hah!”
It let out a cry .
Clank, clank!
A gleaming metal bullet dropped onto the deck .
“Is that enough?” the automatic machine gun spoke with heavy breaths .
The old man waved his hand to levitate the bullet over as he carefully examined it .
After a while, the old man looked up and respectfully spoke: “It is a top-grade product, you paid more than enough for our boarding fee, please wait a bit as I get your change”
The automatic machine gun spoke altruistically: “No need, just prepare a barrel of Spire liquor for me in my room, you can keep the rest as a tip”
“Very well, thank you for your generosity” the old man smiled .
Following that, the Demi also took out a luxurious-looking small bag and handed it over .
The old man took the bag and lightly shook it .
Some metallic chimes came from the bag .
The old man scowled: “This isn’t enough”
The black cloaked Demi gasped .
He stopped for a bit, seemingly hesitant on what to do .
The old man’s expression turned irritated .
“Please wait a second”
Saying so, the black cloaked Demi searched all over himself until he finally took out a small, intricately designed bag .
He sighed and very unwillingly handed the bag over .
The old man received the bag and estimated it as well .
His scowl loosened and spoke: “Just enough, thank you for your business”
Hearing that, the black cloaked Demi breathed out like he had just been forgiven .
Next was Gu Qing Shan’s turn .
