Yin Lin, Bei Xu, and Ta Lei started mumbling to themselves when they saw the figure looking around. Clearly, they had forgotten that they were even less composed when they first arrived at the Astronomical Parliament.
Lin Yuan and Wen Yu had already started checking through the willpowers and experiences of this figure.
The two of them shared a look.
This time, they did not immediately decide to allow this person to join the Astronomical Parliament. Instead, she asked the figure, “Do you know why you’re here?”
This question immediately attracted Wo Lun’s attraction.

When Wo Lun first arrived in this constellation-filled sky pocket, he thought he was hallucinating due to a lack of water.
But soon, he realized that things were not as simple as he thought because he could sense the power of laws and willpowers coming from the two figures seated on the golden thrones.
One could not dream up the power of laws and willpowers. Spirit qi professionals would not struggle to awaken Willpower Runes if they could.
Moreover, Wo Lun sensed that there were three people near him who were looking at him curiously.
This meant that he had accidentally entered a mystical space.
Lin Yuan’s question made Wo Lun think.
Wo Lun had no idea why he had come here, and he badly wanted to know how he had managed to reach this place.
Wo Lun got his bearings and said warily, “Lord, I am just a lowly sailor. I have no idea why I’m here. Please let me know!”
Lin Yuan was not surprised to hear this response.
According to Wo Lun’s memories and experiences, Lin Yuan knew what kind of person Wo Lun was.
Given that he had fainted from dehydration, it would be difficult for him to remember the wish he had made in his final moments of consciousness. Hence, Lin Yuan needed to give him a reminder.
“You managed to reach this place because you made a wish saying that you were willing to give up everything. I can fulfill your wish.”
Lin Yuan’s words took Wo Lun by surprise.
Wo Lun immediately realized what had happened when he looked through his memories.
Soon, elation spread across his face.
This meant that he and his friends were saved!
“But before that, you have to tell me what you can do for me,” said Lin Yuan.
When the Astronomical Parliament took in Bei Xu, Yin Lin, and Ta Lei, Lin Yuan had not asked them this question.
However, he was stricter with Wo Lun and Su Yiren because they were both very ambitious.
Su Yiren was desperate to live so she could restore the Dark Continent to its former glory, while Wo Lun wanted to go on more adventures to become a more outstanding sailor.
Wo Lun had a dream, but it was in conflict with the Astronomical Parliament’s goal.
The Astronomical Parliament needed a leader and strategist who could set up a new faction in a new continent to expand Sky City’s reach and not an adventurer who had wanderlust.
If Wo Lun chose to help Sky City over his dream, he would be worth being saved by Lin Yuan.
There was an abundance of sad people in the world who were about to die.
If Lin Yuan did not save Wo Lun, he could save someone else. It made no difference to him.
Wo Lun immediately fell quiet as he carefully thought about Lin Yuan’s question.
Soon, Wo Lun realized that Lin Yuan’s question had a hidden meaning. Lin Yuan was actually asking him about what he could contribute.
When Wo Lun introduced himself, he said that he was a sailor. Evidently, the person seated on the throne did not think that sailors were very valuable.
When he was on the brink of life and death, Wo Lun had seriously questioned his dream of adventuring. If he had not decided to sail northwest to search for new islands despite knowing the dangers involved, he would not have ended up trapped by the Saw Fin Bite Sharks.
Before he fell unconscious, Wo Lun had even groggily had the idea of opening a small bar in an alley.
However, the owner of a bar seemed even less valuable than a sailor.
After pondering for a while, Wo Lun came up with a way to demonstrate his value.
“Lord, I have been risking my life at sea ever since I was young. Although I haven’t gained much out of it, I have accumulated a decent network of resources. If you have any need for it or find yourself near the Violent Wind Federation, I can recruit sailors to sail the waterways. Additionally, I can use spiritual ingredients to form large boats.
“Although these boats can’t compare to the Island Whales, they can get through the sea without any problems. However, as long as you’re willing to spend money to buy Gold and above spiritual ingredients, I can build boats that are impervious to the attacks from Diamond sea beasts.”
Lin Yuan was immediately interested and said, “You claim that using Gold spiritual ingredients to build boats can defend them from the attacks of Diamond sea beasts. Then what about using Diamond spiritual ingredients? Will they be able to defend attacks from Myth Breed feys?”
Wo Lun was shocked.
How many Diamond spiritual ingredients were required to build an entire boat? Wo Lun could not imagine the cost.
Yet, it was clear that this figure who asked the question did not care about Diamond spiritual ingredients.
Wo Lun said hesitantly, “Lord, Myth Breed sea beasts are able to use laws to utilize the sea’s power. There is a saying amongst sailors. Encountering a Myth Breed fey can only result in death. Even if you use Diamond spiritual ingredients to build a large boat, it won’t be able to hold up against a Myth Breed sea beast’s violent attacks. However, I believe that using Diamond spiritual ingredients will be able to protect a boat from the attacks of Fantasy Breed and Suzerain sea beasts.”
With this, Lin Yuan decided that he would take Wo Lun into the Astronomical Parliament.
There were countless sea beasts in the main world. Although it was much easier to use a large boat to replace an Island Whale in running trading routes, any accidents would result in a total loss.
The Violent Wind Federation’s boat construction skills were nonpareil.

Any person who identified themselves as a sailor in the Violent Wind Federation went out to sea in a boat that they made themselves.
However, the sailors in the Violent Wind Federation were also called pirates.
