"Thank you," Lann said again, reattaching the small Shield Emblem with the [Early Revival Talisman] to his waist. "A great farewell gift."
The captain of the Second Period Team sat back down on the small stool, scratching his bristly beard.
"Well, it's not entirely a 'farewell gift,' but also a token of gratitude. After all, without you, I doubt I would have experienced such a forging process last time. It gave me a lot of inspiration."
"Don't be fooled by my age; I'm still ambitious in technological innovations! Haha!"
"Goodbye, Lann."
"Goodbye, mate."
The two hands clasped over the conveyor belt, then parted without any hesitation.
Lann waved a hand behind him without looking back and walked out of the forge.
Descending a level, he arrived at the circulation area of the Star Base.
It was still busy and fulfilling here, as the New Continent Expedition Team continued to sustain their livelihood while exploring nature.
