Make sure to keep the outermost quotes? We'll output as a single line with the translation, no extra quotes? The instruction: Output 【N】 for EVERY input line. Keep each translation on a SINGLE output line (no line breaks inside one 【N】). It didn't say to include the quotation marks. Usually we just output the translation text. We'll not include the Chinese quotation marks. We'll just output the English sentence.

Thus 【1】 translation: I said, you can't reason with people from the Worship School. You are like giant earth beasts, your huge bodies always looking at the ground, while I want to be the horsefly that bites the earth beast.

"If that city-state tyrant's failure merely proved to us that, among all ways infinitely close to Aigele..., building the Heavenly Vessel is mistaken?"

Youqiefuluo: "Anakesagolas, Defiler of Gods lacking reverence, you will sooner or later pay for your words and deeds. Your students, and that little assistant lecturer, probably don't know what kind of *secret research* you are conducting..."

Translate: Youqiefuluo: "Anakesagolas, Defiler of Gods lacking reverence, you will sooner or later pay for your words and deeds. Your students, and that little assistant lecturer, probably don't know what kind of *secret research* you are conducting..." Need to handle asterisks for emphasis; keep them as *secret research*. Also note the Chinese uses 「」 for speech; we will translate speech with quotes.

: ——

This line is just an em dash? Actually it's a line with "——". We need to output translation of that line. It's a separator. Should we output just an em dash? Probably we keep as "——". So translation: —— (same). We'll output exactly that.

Caesar said, "He really does love the earth beast, even using it in metaphors." However, the meaning of Keqixia's words suggests another meaning—aside from the Heavenly Vessel, there are other ways to approach the sky, approach Aigele. If we could repair the train carriages, perhaps this is one way to approach Aigele.

Keqixia laughed and said: "I think so too, after all, building the Heavenly Vessel requires enormous resources, and our current situation..." "No, I just wanted to say that besides the Heavenly Vessel, there are other ways to approach Aigele, such as utilizing natural phenomena or ancient ruins."

Chu Zihang said expressionlessly, "Surely no one can fix it? Leaving Weng Faluos probably still requires finding a way from the outside."... but there is one exception—Laigushi. As an inorganic lifeform, it should not be a product of Weng Faluos, but rather related to the Screw Star and other inorganic life planets. However, as a neutral observer of divine rites, absolutely neutral between the Senate and the Golden Descendants, it has no reason to help support Dan Heng and them.

"Frankly, this can't be considered help, right? If we help Dan Heng repair the carriages, wouldn't they be able to leave? Dan Heng and Xing's departure would be a major blow to the Fire Pursuit Journey; the Senate would love to see that."

"No, the only one who can truly leave Weng Faluos is Dan Heng; Xing has already become a Demigod of Ages, and she is firmly bound to Weng Faluos."

Chu Zihang lifted his gaze toward the tree court shrouded in night, "But Dan Heng is different; he can leave Weng Faluos, tell Walter and Xingqiri everything that happened here, and if we can bring the two of them over and have them join the Fire Pursuit Journey... then even if the Senate holds power, the remaining Bai E and company could, with the train's help, accomplish the Recreation of the World."

"Anakesagolas is the scholar who united with the 'Rational' fire seed."

Feng Jin also felt surprised: "Even I didn't know; it turns out Professor Keqixia conducted research on the 'sky'. He never mentioned it."

Dan Heng: "According to Bai E, he might stand opposed to the Fire Pursuit Journey."

Translate: Dan Heng: "According to Bai E, he might stand opposed to the Fire Pursuit Journey." Output: Dan Heng: "According to Bai E, he might stand opposed to the Fire Pursuit Journey."

Feng Jin chuckled: "Saying 'might' is a bit euphemistic. The teacher has always been irreverent toward gods, holds a negative attitude toward divine edicts; even in the free Shuting, he is seen as a heretic. Yet it is precisely such a Defiler of Gods who has become the divine choice of Se Xisi—fate truly is inscrutable."

Dan Heng took out the scrolls he had collected earlier, and Feng Jin pieced them together, discovering they were two parts of a conversation from the same scene, before and after.

"I don't know enough about the Shuting; may I ask a few questions?"

"Please go ahead."

"What is the Worship School?"

Translate: "What is the Worship School?" Output: "What is the Worship School?"

"The Divine Insight Tree Garden has seven great schools, all built around the ideas of the First Scholar Selesus, though they differ from each other; among them, the Worship School is the most Titan-like. Professor Euthyphro is a sage of the Worship School, always opposing Professor Kexia. If we placed all seven sages on Talandon's scale, one end would be Kexia, and the other would have to be Euthyphro to keep balance."

"That's a vivid description; I completely understand it." Dan Heng nodded, "Kexia's research direction is…"

"…The Wise Species School, its core topic is to use Alchemy to achieve the repair of the 'soul'. Although regarded as a Defiler of Gods, Kexia himself never hesitates to promote his ideas. If there is any secret… it is only his appearance beneath the eyepatch." Feng Jin answered truthfully, "All 'mistaken' attempts are merely steps closer to 'correct'… the teacher often has this saying on his lips."

"Perhaps in his view, the downfall of the Heavenly Vessel carries another meaning: the firmament is not unbreakable, and precisely because it took that crucial step, it invited divine punishment."

……He too is a person cursed by knowledge.

Mieba stared at the scattered, blurred characters on the scroll, as if he could imagine Kexia in the Tree Garden facing the pointing of thousands.

He felt he could deeply empathize with Kexia's ordeal.

Kexia knows too much, sees too far. It's a pity that the people around him remain immersed in fanatical faith, regarding him as a heretic. Even if he has received the Titans' acknowledgment, he still cannot gain understanding from his peers.

"Just like me back then, I knew the crisis of Titan Star, I knew the disaster that resource depletion might entail. Yet none of them understood me; randomly killing half of the Titanites is better than everyone dying from the resource crisis."

Having said that, Mieba's voice carried a hint of rare regret: 'This is truly the cruelest curse. Those who possess knowledge are destined to bear solitude. If Kexia had not been born in Weng Faluos, but had grown up in a place like the Erudite Society, he surely could have achieved more.'

"My lord, alas, there are no 'ifs'." Wumu Hou, standing behind Mieba, bowed slightly, "And your ideal will surely be realized one day."

"Feng Jin continued speaking: 'Unfortunately, the Tree Garden's research on Aigle remains dominated by the Worship School, mostly consisting of sacrificial rites. Exploration of the outer aspects has waned since the Heavenly Vessel incident; I, too, am seeing this scroll for the first time.'"

"It's fine; for now we just need to gather the research on the Titans. I'm more curious about another matter: this scroll mentions that Kexia was conducting some kind of secret experiment?"

"Feng Jin showed a curious expression: 'I'm also concerned… what research is it that even I, a teaching assistant, am unaware of? Moreover, I always have a bad feeling—could there be another secret behind the Tree Garden's disaster?'"

The two continued forward, arriving at a library of the Tree Garden, the Hall of Friendship.

"Feng Jin introduced: 'The works of the seven great schools are all collected here, also encompassing foreign philosophy, poetry, and faith books… It is said that city-states seeking wisdom from the Tree Garden must offer equivalent knowledge in return.'"

"There have also been laughable incidents in history. It is said that the Red Pottery School once borrowed a manuscript from a certain writer, but returned only a copy, while the original was secretly hidden here."

"Dan Heng stared for a moment: 'This… seems somewhat rude.'"

"Feng Jin crossed her arms, puffing her cheeks in anger, seemingly speaking up for the writer whose manuscript was forcibly 'borrowed': 'Well, no need to be so polite… it's outright banditry!'"

"Then, has the Tree Garden ever 'raided' Xuanfengcheng?"

"Feng Jin shook her head: 'I don't know that. Some say Xuanfengcheng doesn't even have a dictionary, so perhaps it luckily escaped disaster.'"
