"I’m responsible for outfitting the Platinum Ace’s racing boat, ’The Howling Wolf,’" Li Ang said.

He played the role of Andasu’s dedicated mechanic.

"Aren’t you her team leader?"

Gel walked in from the side with a few racers.

They had clearly just parked their boats and rushed over to see who had defeated them.

Those who hadn’t met Andasu before looked amazed, while Gel’s expression was complex, filled with resentment, admiration, and fervor.

When he saw Andasu, he also recognized Li Ang, who had claimed to be the team leader and blocked his attempt to talk to Andasu.

Of course, infiltrating the shipyard inevitably meant encountering these racers, which was expected, and Li Ang’s side had also made some contingency plans.

"Yes, as a Sky Knight, her identity is a member, and I am the team leader. I initially recruited her for her driving skills, and since I understand mechanical technology, my role becomes a mechanic when she needs a boat," Li Ang said.

This response seemed unusual at most, but it was logically sound, leaving the boat racers with nothing much to say.

Gel’s lips moved, but he said nothing. If he couldn’t see the special relationship between Li Ang and Andasu now, he would be truly oblivious.

Reed tried to smooth things over by saying, "Since the incident at Flashing Field, the races are off, and we have to think about the future. With the Platinum Ace’s skill level, becoming a Sky Knight to earn mission rewards is a breeze, so we’ve also changed roles and today, we return to our old trade."

"Then why don’t you come to our shipyard... and who is she?"

Ryder stopped mid-sentence and looked behind Li Ang, which puzzled Li Ang as well.

The plan was for Reed to serve as the witness, with Andasu at the center of the situation and Li Ang in disguise as her protector. Who else could there be?

As the three of them turned, Meluna was silently standing behind them.

Damn, when did she get here?

This woman had vanished after being reprimanded by him, and he didn’t expect her to show up now.

She clearly intended to follow along.

This moment was critical, and Li Ang didn’t dare provoke her or let her speak.

He recalled those moments when Meimei occasionally interjected during his conversation with her.

Li Ang’s mind flashed with Meimei’s occasional comments.

"I love Nebis, and those who once helped me, even if it’s another parallel world now, I still hope to see the world keep moving forward smoothly. She and I share the same name, and I think maybe deep down she might feel the same way, only she seems indifferent to everything."

"A most serious hypothesis: if she completely loses control and becomes detached from everyone and everything, the world might end up with a big problem."

Admittedly, the white-haired "child Meluna" understood her other self well, and her concerns made Li Ang agree. Even though he couldn’t emotionally accept it, he had to consider a way to stabilize Meluna.

"This is also one of our members, usually—"

"Since she’s here, let’s go together. After all, you’re all in this together."

Ryder scrutinized Meluna carefully, but he wore an expression suggesting that such a beautiful woman posed no threat, and he willingly allowed her to join them.

Thus, with Andasu at the helm of The Howling Wolf alongside them, Li Ang’s group entered the shipyard inside the City of the Ship’s Rudder.
