Yes, there is no tacit understanding between teammates in this team; they also don't need anyone's pity. Perhaps the only connection is the thin threads that exist between the Blade Warrior and the rest of them.
Because the Blade Warrior can communicate with these people, she speaks with Mengdie, who occasionally responds and complies accordingly.
The Blade Warrior converses with Sky Shadow, who also occasionally listens to the Blade Warrior's suggestions and provides relatively rational responses.
As for Roland, the Blade Warrior usually doesn't give him any advice. It seems that what she can think of, Roland can think of as well, and the issues she can't foresee, Roland can also anticipate and consider thoroughly. Hence, within this team, the core is both the Blade Warrior and Roland, and of course, the significance of the young Feng Yi cannot be ruled out.
And in some instances, Sky Shadow's intuitive judgments are even more pronounced than Roland's, but he seldom speaks. Thus, Sky Shadow can only be seen as a wild card, as for Mengdie... she's probably the least noticeable one, aside from being easy on the eyes. Perhaps what people care about more is the child inside her.
Of course, Fatty, who thinks of himself as the team leader in this era's narrative, is indeed the leader. After all, many times these incompatible individuals have lost any sense of life's pleasures. Such a team is simply incongruous; he must take on the role of a leader, setting a good example, and improving the relationship among teammates.
Thinking of this, Fatty lets out another sigh...
What would Feng Yi do if he were here? It can be said that this team's ability to come this far relies on more than just the Blade Warrior. Without Feng Yi, neither Mengdie nor Sky Shadow would have any connection with her. In some ways, Feng Yi could be seen as a pivot point.
This understanding is not wrong, for Fatty is not ignorant of the body modifications of Sky Shadow. It was precisely because of Feng Yi's recommendation that Sky Shadow found the Blade Warrior and gradually became part of the team over time.
It was also because of Feng Yi's presence that Mengdie handed the light crystal to the Blade Warrior, established some connection with the Jade Clear Sect, and, coincidentally, joined the team.
The same was true for Kexiao, even though he is no longer with them. It's undeniable that Kexiao's dedication to Feng Yi was no less than anyone else's.
And if not for Feng Yi, he would have probably died in the binary stars and would not have happened to encounter the Blade Warrior's spacecraft.
Mengdie, Sky Shadow, and even Kexiao would not have come to the Freedom Port of Maraca and become entangled with the Blade Warrior. Sigh, all of these really are twisted fates.
But no matter, after all, Feng Yi is a thing of the past. Thinking of his old comrade, Fatty can't help but spare a fleeting glance at the distant young Feng Yi, falling into brief contemplation.
This is a very strange emotion, somewhat uncomfortable. He wants to talk to the young Feng Yi, to chat about anything really, yet feels the two have no common language. To put it plainly, in his eyes, the young Feng Yi is just a snotty kid, with no shared experiences, no shared stories, nor shared feelings of moving moments or hardships. Such a conversation would be completely meaningless.
Fatty lets out an almost imperceptible sigh, then suddenly gets up, turning back into the cheerful spirit of the team, "Why is everyone looking so gloomy? Shouldn't we be happy right now? We're about to eradicate the Bizarre and restore world peace, leading to a joyous life."
Everyone's gaze whisks towards his direction...
Roland gives him a light smile, then glances past with his charming face, as if he has seen through what Zhang Xiaobo harbors in his heart but does not point it out, still quietly gazing into the endless space.
Sky Shadow leaned against the wall coolly without any reaction. You couldn't even tell if he saw through it or not; he seldom shared his personal opinions, especially on such trivial matters.
Mengdie's gaze rippled like water, her eyes slightly widening as she glanced at him. However, you must know that Mengdie possesses the Mind Reading ability, a divine skill incomprehensible to ordinary people. It seemed she also caught a hint of something, but she gave no sign of it, turning away her gaze with a literary flair.
Feng Yi had always been silent, with only Blade Warrior staring at Eggy, wearing an expression that said "I'm beaten by you," at such a critical juncture. Instead of letting down their guard, everyone must be prepared for the worst. If their attack is ineffective against the Bizarre, if the plan fails, then what they face next would be more than just escaping.
In her estimation, they had a high probability of escaping, but what if they really couldn't? Even if they could escape and the mission fails, what would be their next move? They couldn't just sit and wait for death as the Bizarre continued to grow in power.
Indeed, the Bizarre's growth rate was very slow, giving humanity plenty of time. It couldn't even move quickly. However, according to Eggy's calculations, as the 'Bizarre''s energy constantly strengthened, its power would increase, and its flying speed would only grow faster. Once it broke through the sub-light speed stage, humanity might lose all hope.
"Honestly, I'm scared of dying too, no less than Eggy," hearing him say this, Blade Warrior felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her: "At such a critical time, you can still laugh?"
"Of course I can laugh. We shouldn't be too pessimistic about things. What if our plan succeeds? Then we will be heroes of the world, recorded in the annals of history. Well, even though I'm not too keen on these things, we could celebrate for three days and nights in the Sky Garden! Yes, I've decided that when the time comes, I'll have a grand wedding in Sky City, and you all must come. Right, we can think ahead to the wonderful life thereafter. For this time, let's unite and fight hard, I believe we can make it happen, don't forget, he is Feng Yi after all," Eggy said, gesturing towards Feng Yi as if suggesting something.
And true enough, as Eggy spoke, everyone's gaze turned towards the calm and silent Feng Yi at the same time...Indeed, everyone had an inexplicable trust in Feng Yi, despite being a youth from a Parallel Dimension, he was still Feng Yi. This trust extended beyond his personal capabilities, giving everyone a sense of security over time.
Feng Yi wasn't perfect, with his flaws, like being impetuous, lacking patience, and showing fleeting enthusiasm, but in such critical decisions, he was undoubtedly the soul of the team, a trust that could only be fostered among companions who have shared experiences with him, adding something more profound.
Just like Revenge Shadow Rider, no matter the moment, the situation, or the crisis faced, he could always turn defeat into victory at a moment's notice, accomplishing feats even Roland wouldn't dare claim possible. Wasn't that a miracle?
One might say that Feng Yi himself is a miracle. It is because of him that everyone has come here to form a team.
With what reason would they worry? Even if they did worry, it wouldn't be helpful. Instead of worrying, it would be better to relax and focus their experiences on the action to come.
Roland was the first to agree, joking that if it's Zhang Xiaobo's wedding, not to forget to invite her, promising to prepare a special gift.
Sky Shadow's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he snorted coldly, but it was clear that he somewhat agreed with Eggy's words.
"Yes, yes, you're right," Blade Warrior quickly agreed, a rare smile appearing on her face, but the glint in her eyes suddenly seemed like she had found a winning opportunity. She stopped providing battle guidance to Feng Yi, which although based on textbooks and experience, Feng Yi was, after all, Feng Yi. Perhaps his on-spot performance would completely surpass her own expectations.
"We are a team after all, and we have one more day. Why not all have a meal together? To boost the morale for tomorrow's operation, our team really needs some bonding, right?"
"Ah? Have dinner..."
