Interstellar Examiner
Chapter 25
When Yang Xiaotian and Qi Lan were surviving in the wilderness, both the Imperial Capital and Banyue Port received the news.
"What!" Randall almost shattered the table in front of him after receiving the news from the imperial capital.
Qi Cheng unexpectedly did not leave the empire, but has been lurking in it.However, because of the information given by Qi Dingmao, the empire sent three armies to attack Fallen Star, but now all three armies have lost contact, and the battleship of the first army appeared inside the empire, and ambushed Qi Lan and Tan Yeran.
In Randall's view, the reason why these things happened was because of the negligence of Half Moon Harbor.First of all, they were overwhelmed by the shielding device found in Qi Dingmao's body, so they tried to dig out information from Qi Dingmao at all costs. Who knew that the information was obtained, but they were misled by the information, and they were led by Qi Cheng all the time. Walk.
Randall, who had just been punished, sat weakly on the chair, which was all caused by his negligence. But this time he confronted Qi Cheng, he finally understood why Qi Cheng was called the God of War back then, and was respected by everyone. Worship, this person is too scary, and his scheming is too deep.
The people who escaped from the battlefield only saw Qi Lan being covered by the light net at last, and what happened after that was unclear.Afterwards, the empire sent troops to check the battlefield, and found the wreckage of "Tinder" in the cosmic dust, which meant that Tan Yeran, who remained in the battleship, had died.
As for the whereabouts of Yang Xiaotian who escaped with them but is now missing, and the whereabouts of the crown prince Qi Lan who was covered by the optical net, the survivors are not clear.
Randall's heart was cold, because of his dereliction of duty, the empire lost a battleship named "Tinder", a secretary general, a squadron of soldiers, a talented crown prince and the crown prince of the empire... and he himself , Lost this lovely child Yang Xiaotian.
He shouldn't have agreed with Tan Yeran to let Yang Xiaotian escort Qi Lan, he shouldn't even let Yang Xiaotian participate in this inspection, so that Yang Xiaotian wouldn't find Qi Lan, and wouldn't follow them out of Banyue Harbor.
Thinking of the child who always looked at him with bright and innocent eyes, Randall felt anxious for a while. He really didn't want to believe that Yang Xiaotian died like this.Now he is still suppressing the news so that no one will know. Yang Xiaotian's mother, Zhao Yu, thought that her son had been recommended by the Imperial Customs University to participate in the pre-exam training, and was waiting for her son at home with high hopes. Possibly sacrificed...
A kid who is only 19 years old...
Randall's hands trembled a little. He was not married and had no children, but in Yang Xiaotian, he really felt the family affection.He was sad not because of himself, but because of such a lovely and excellent child...
and many more!
Randall turned on his personal terminal and carefully observed the on-site images sent by the empire and the wreckage of the battleships collected.Search and rescue personnel collected all the wreckage they saw and examined it.Some of these warships came from "Tinder", and some were small warships that were attacked at that time. There were still corpses of soldiers who were killed by one blow in the warships, but among all the wreckage, not even a single fragment belonged to the escape pod.
In other words, all the escape pods at that time left the battlefield, and luckily none of them were hit.
how can that be!
If he were Qi Cheng, he would definitely catch them all and no one would be allowed to escape, but why did he let those escape pods go?Unless something happened at that time, he had to let go of those escape pods.It's a pity that "Tinder" has been destroyed, and the black boxes of all battleships have been taken away...
Wait, even the black box was taken away, why so many people escaped from the battlefield?
Something must have happened that made it impossible for Qi Cheng to catch all the escape pods.Is it because of Tinder's self-destruction?Not too possible.
Randall looked at the pictures over and over again, trying to find even the slightest evidence in them that Yang Xiaotian was still alive.
At the same time, Qi Huan, who was in the imperial capital, also looked at the information repeatedly. He really couldn't believe that Qi Lan was captured and Tan Yeran was sacrificed like this.
His son and his most important friends and subordinates simply left him like this. Qi Huan didn't believe it at all. He watched it repeatedly, and called the survivors back to question, trying to find a glimmer of life among them.
After all, they didn't see Tan Yeran's body, did they?No one actually saw Qi Lan being taken away.All the black boxes were taken away by Qi Cheng, what was he trying to hide?Is there anything he doesn't want the empire to know?
Apart from Tan Yeran, Qi Huan is the person who knows Qi Cheng best in the world.It's a pity that the gap between them and Qi Cheng is too great, even if they know so well, Qi Huan can only analyze Qi Cheng's purpose after the fact, but can't understand Qi Cheng's purpose before the event.Every time he could only follow behind Qi Cheng, and he could only regret why he didn't find out at that time.
According to Qi Huan's understanding of Qi Cheng, instead of killing all the escape pods, he took away the black boxes of the remaining battleships. This can be said to be quite aggrieved. So what happened at that time?
Even though Qi Huan didn't know about Yang Xiaotian's existence, like Randall, he found the only escape pod that failed to escape back to the empire but could not be found among the wreckage.Intuition or strong analytical ability told Qi Huan that all the problems came from this escape pod.Compared with Randall, Qi Huan, as the emperor, also has greater authority. All the escape pods on the "Tinder" have a positioning system, as long as the escape pods are not destroyed, as long as they are still within the range of the empire's star map within, you will be able to find it.
But no, there is no escape pod in the star map, and there are no fragments of it in the wreckage.
"If an escape pod didn't crash, but it can't be found on the star map, what's the reason?" Qi Huan asked.
The person in the technical department thought for a while and replied: "Either its signal is blocked by something, or it is no longer on the territory of the empire."
"Blocking the signal?" Qi Huan shook his head. According to their speculation, Qi Cheng made the shielding device based on the cell samples left by Qi Lan in the laboratory. Without Qi Lan's cells, the effect of the shielding device would be ineffective. There are so good.Qi Cheng has limited cell samples, and with the cost of the experiment, the shielding device in his hand must also be limited, otherwise Qi Cheng would have directly attacked the empire long ago, and would not have adopted such a low-key method of lurking.It is precisely because of this that Qi Cheng would not hesitate to expose his hidden strength to ambush the battleship, just to get Qi Lan's body.With the scarcity of jammers, Qi Cheng would not block the signal of an escape pod, it would be enough to destroy it, why would he block it.
Not on the empire map... Qi Huan tapped the table with his fingers, and said to his opponent, "I want the star map on the battlefield at that time and the last signal from the missing escape pod."
Because it is the escape pod of the empire, as long as it is activated, it will send a signal to the empire, which will make it easier for people to rescue.The escape pod that Yang Xiaotian was riding in was initially positioned at the Imperial Capital, and at the same time as it was positioned, the escape pod sent a distress signal to the Imperial Capital, but the signal lasted less than a minute and then disappeared, and it has never been seen since then.The battlefield Qi Cheng chose was relatively remote, at the junction of the star map of the Edra Empire and the unknown star field, and because it was such a remote place, it was suitable for ambushes.
"Unknown star field..." Qi Huan's finger slid across the star map, and the flame of hope was ignited in his eyes.
If this is the case, then Qi Cheng's approach can be explained.
Qi Cheng's goal is Qi Lan. From Qi Lan, he can research many things, such as the reason for Qi Lan's awakening of supernatural powers, such as the mass production of shielding devices, all of which require him.If Qi Cheng had already got Qi Lan, then he wouldn't go to great lengths to get the black box.If the purpose was Qi Lan, then taking away the black box on the battleship could only be for one reason—Qi Cheng didn't catch Qi Lan, in order to prevent the empire from getting the information of Qi Lan's whereabouts, he rushed to find him before the empire, so he took the black box away .
Therefore, the current Qi Lan must be in the unknown star field!
Qi Huan immediately said: "Notify the search and rescue team and the star field development department to explore this unknown star field immediately. Arrange troops to protect the exploration team so as not to encounter enemies during the development of the star field."
The oxygen and nutrients in the escape pod are limited. It is unknown how long Qi Lan can last. The longer the time drags on, the less likely Qi Lan will survive. They must hurry up.Even if it is a corpse, Qi Cheng cannot be the first to find him!
At this time, Qi Lan and Yang Xiaotian didn't know that the empire and Qi Cheng had tried their best to find them, and they were still studying how to fill them with energy stones.And after more than 40 days, they finally found a way to recharge the two energy stones, and they were able to leave the original star.
After installing the energy stone on the escape pod, Qi Lan turned on the light screen and was shocked when he found the route map of Yang Xiaotian's escape.
"We have already gone so deep into the unknown star field?" Qi Lan said, "And you have been walking in a straight line without changing direction at all. How did you find this living planet all of a sudden?"
Qi Lan is well aware of the way the empire develops star fields and finds people in the universe. In order to avoid getting lost in unknown star fields, whether it is search and rescue or development, she will be careful. First, set up supply points on nearby planets to understand the operation of nearby planets. The method is to launch satellites, and after incorporating this star field into the empire's territory, it will slowly go deeper.If you are looking for someone, the speed will be faster, but you must also understand the way the stars work and whether there are dangerous stars such as meteorite groups or black holes and white holes nearby, so that you can go looking for them.
According to their current level of depth, it will take at least 20 years to develop the star field to find this place, and it will take three to five years to search and rescue faster.
And if they haven't found him for three to five years, who would believe that he can live?
With the support of the escape pod, the best search and rescue period is three months, and the survival period is half a year. After half a year, no one can be found. Even if Qi Huan wants to find someone, the Congress will not agree to spend so much money to find someone.If he wanted to be rescued, he would probably have to wait for the Star Field Development Department to expand the star map to this point before he could return to the empire.At that time, he was probably in his 70s or [-]s, and he didn't know how long he had lived a life of bare hair and drinking blood.
"You're really lucky." Qi Lan was so shocked to the end that she could only express such emotions.
Whoever said it wasn't, just escaped from Qi Cheng's pursuit, and just found this living planet. The energy of the escape pod was only enough to drive in a straight line to get here, and he just happened to drive in a straight line without wasting any energy. When encountering any dangerous planet, this kind of luck is unstoppable.
It was precisely because of Yang Xiaotian's luck that they were able to escape from Qi Cheng's hands with a narrow escape.
Yang Xiaotian smiled flatly and said, "It's not luck, it's just that I can survive if I walk in this direction."
There are two fluffy ears on his head, it looks like that young face is very cute, but there is such a calm smile, this kind of high contrast makes Qi Lan's heart tremble.
The crown prince stretched out his hand with a cold face, and hugged Yang Xiaotian's shoulders like a buddy, and patted Yang Xiaotian vigorously a few times before saying, "I'll make you feel awkward."
After speaking, he patted Yang Xiaotian's head again, and pinched those beautiful pointed ears by the way.
Yang Xiaotian's ears trembled, he seemed a little uncomfortable, but he didn't stop Qi Lan, but looked at Qi Lan with wet and aggrieved eyes, then turned his head, and looked seriously at the light screen that he couldn't understand at all.
Qi Lan was instantly killed by those eyes and ears, turned her head and took a bite of the astringent fruit, then calmed down, and rushed over to kiss Yang Xiaotian's cheek without impulse.
Since they have been eating the food on the planet, their nutritional supplements still have half a month's worth, which is enough for the two of them to return to the empire smoothly.But to be on the safe side, they still brought a bunch of easy-to-storage food to prevent emergencies on the road.
Before leaving, Qi Lan said to the planet that saved them: "Goodbye, I will come back in the future."
On this lonely planet, someone has been with him all the time.They went to find food together and explored the planet together.When they were tired, they lay down together to rest, and when they woke up, they would see a pair of pointed ears moving back and forth on their chests.If there is anything worth remembering about this broken planet with unlovable animals, unpalatable plants, and hard-to-find energy sources, it must be the person next to him.
Because this planet is a memory of two people alone.
Because of this person, when Qi Lan left the planet, a little bit of reluctance rose in her heart.
Back in the empire, they were about to part.Yang Xiaotian will return to Banyue Port, and he will hunt down Qi Lan together with the Imperial Army, and they will all devote themselves to intense and busy work.Or, Yang Xiaotian's ears and tail were taken away by the Imperial Research Institute, trying to find a way to solve his atavism phenomenon... In that case, Qi Lan decided that he would enter the research institute with Yang Xiaotian, and let them study the secrets of his abilities, so that Yang Xiaotian would not be spared. One is treated unfairly in it.
In any case, they will never be as peaceful as they are now.
Everything in the original star will become a short and beautiful dream. Although there is despair of solitary survival, it is so warm.
When there was no way to escape, they desperately searched for a way out, never stopping to enjoy this rare moment of peace.Now that she was about to leave, Qi Lan realized that in just two months, she had left so many memories.
Yang Xiaotian who frowned after eating the bitter fruit, Yang Xiaotian who never forgot to vigilantly move his ears from time to time while sleeping, Yang Xiaotian who killed primitive star creatures with vigorous skills, Yang Xiaotian who looked at him with firm eyes and told him that he would definitely be able to go back...
Every different face converges into a strong, calm, cute and powerful boy. He is only 19 years old this year, but Qi Lan can see his glorious future. He will definitely become a pillar of the empire. Together, he becomes the new pillar of the empire.
"Yang Xiaotian," Qi Lan stretched out his hand to hold the hands of the people around him, and said in a deep voice, "I will catch Qi Cheng, and I will become a qualified emperor. I will try my best to make life better for the people of the empire. You have become a victim of genetic research, and when you return to the empire, you will go to university and become an excellent person, when the time comes, will you be willing to work for me?"
Yang Xiaotian looked at Qi Lan quietly, and his heart was agitated.
Since his master passed away in his previous life, Xiaotian has no one in his heart who can be his master.His mother is a relative, and Inspector Sharp is an officer, but they are not the masters he recognizes as being able to depend on each other.But now, this person in front of him wants to be his master and let him be loyal to him, is he willing?
For dogs, loyalty is not because they are willing to be enslaved, but because they love their master deeply and are willing to suppress their own desires for the command of the master.They may like many people, but the one they really love the most is only the master they recognize in their hearts.
And Qi Lan, can he become Yang Xiaotian's master, his spiritual partner who depends on life and death?
No, at least not now.
So under Qi Lan's expectant eyes, Yang Xiaotian shook his head firmly: "I can carry out all the orders from my superiors, and I can serve the emperor of the empire, but I can't like you wholeheartedly."
Qi Lan: "..."
Why is it that he obviously just extended an olive branch to his outstanding future subordinates, but it seems that his courtship has been rejected?And he is really heartbroken now, as if he has lost his love!
"Hmph, it sounds like I like you, I just asked if you would like to serve the empire, hum!" Qi Lan snorted twice, clutching her bleeding heart, pressed the takeoff button, and drove to escape The cabin leaves the original star.
His emotions, a young boy's heart that had just sprouted, were shattered by Yang Xiaotian's words. He didn't want to look at Yang Xiaotian again, and he didn't want to touch his ears no matter how cute they were.
The escape capsule took off slowly and left the planet where the two depended on each other for life.
This time it was Qi Lan who was driving the escape pod. Compared to Yang Xiaotian, Qi Lan's driving skills were better.He intends to return by the same route that Yang Xiaotian came from, but this time he can’t be so fast, he has to turn on the scanning system. After all, the stars in the universe are moving at any time. It has been two months, and the way he came may not be possible. suit them.
Yang Xiaotian was watching the scanned image closely beside him, assisting Qi Lan in driving.
As long as they leave here, they will be able to return to Half Moon Harbor...
really can?Yang Xiaotian suddenly had a hidden worry in his heart, always felt that this time there was still no way to return to Banyue Harbor.There are too many unknowns in the universe, can they really go back smoothly?Even if he could go back, he might still be left in the Imperial Research Institute because of his ears and tail.
The most important thing is that Yang Xiaotian has always felt a little itchy recently.Primordial Star has plenty of water, and he takes a bath every day. It is not because of hygiene problems that his body feels itchy, so what is the reason?I remembered that before my tail grew out, the position of the tailbone was very itchy. When the ears grew out, the original human ears would also be very itchy.Now he's itching all over...
Yang Xiaotian didn't dare to think about it anymore. He only hoped that he could return to Banyue Harbor and become a dog again. At least Dr. Guy and Inspector Sharp could help him restore his human form without telling others. If others find out... …
That ominous premonition made him a little flustered, he couldn't help reaching out and grabbing Qi Lan's clothes, his face was also pale, and he looked very scared.
Qi Lan, who had just been rejected, coldly glanced at the hand that was grabbing the corner of her clothes, and snorted coldly, now that she is scared, she begged him, just now...wrong, scared?Yang Xiaotian is such a calm person, he is not afraid of facing Qi Cheng's battleship, he is not afraid when he is so desperate in the original star, now he can return to the empire, what is he afraid of?
Operate the equipment with one hand and hold Yang Xiaotian's fingers with the other. Even if he is afraid, Yang Xiaotian's hand is still warmer than Qi Lan's. Cold-blooded animals can't bring him warmth at all.
"Don't be afraid," Qi Lan said, "I will protect you."
Yang Xiaotian lowered his eyes, his eyelashes trembled slightly, looking very disturbed.
Qi Lan said distressedly: "Are you too tired? Otherwise, just lie down and sleep for a while, I'm in good spirits."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Xiaotian fell down directly and lay down with his legs under his head.That is to say, the body type does not match, otherwise Yang Xiaotian could shrink into Qi Lan's lap.
Qi Lan: "..."
There is a sleeping cabin next to you, why do you have to lie on my lap if you don’t lie down!And you just dumped me didn't you?Why can you turn your head and knee pillow without hesitation?
Although she was very conflicted in her heart, Qi Lan still didn't push Yang Xiaotian away, but stretched out her hand to comfort his head, pinched his quivering ears, and patted Yang Xiaotian's back.
Xiaotian, who was appeased, calmed down a little, maybe it wasn't as scary as he thought, and they would be fine.
Thinking of this, Xiaotian quietly closed his eyes and slept next to Qi Lan.
"The empire's search and rescue team has been wandering around for almost two months." A tall man was sitting next to the medical cabin, and inside the cabin was a comatose person. Looking carefully, it was the person who should have self-destructed because of the "fire seed". And Tan Yeran, who had disappeared into ashes.
"Your Highness, we have been waiting on this planet without searching deeply. The Imperial Search and Rescue Team has not found Qi Lan after searching for two months. Has he already..." A blond man in a black uniform stood behind Qi Cheng, with embroidered clothes on his uniform. Wearing a dark golden dragon pattern, it is the costume of the Royal Guard of the First Group Army. It was the same costume that Qi Lan wore when he was captured by Yang Xiaotian in Banyue Harbor.
"No," Qi Cheng turned his head, revealing a more mature and handsome face that is very similar to Qi Lan, his eyes are deep and bottomless, and his expression is calm, no one can read his thoughts from his face, " Qi Lan's vitality is very strong, he will not die so easily."
"But... this is an undeveloped star field, and Qi Lan only has a small escape pod. Now more than two months have passed, and in half a month, the best search and rescue period will pass..." The blond man looked worried said.
"There are emergency medicines in the rescue cabin. Qi Lan's injuries are not serious, and he will recover soon. His body can survive in any environment for a period of time, and he can search for an energy-rich planet to replenish energy before returning to the empire." Qi Cheng analyzed, "Although there are many unknown dangers in the universe, Qi Lan's ability is enough to allow him to avoid these risks. He will return to the empire, and in order to avoid me, he will definitely use his ability to send the signal from the escape pod to the sky. shield."
"Why do you need to block the signal? Isn't it so that the empire can't find him?" The blond man asked inexplicably. How can anyone who wants to survive block the signal? In the vast and boundless universe, wouldn't this be courting death?
"Because the warships of the First Army I occupied can also scan his signal. If the signal of the escape pod is not blocked, the imperial search and rescue team is very likely to find him with me. At that time, the imperial army will definitely have a second meeting with me." Confrontation, when the time comes, who do you think will win? Ulysses Hornby." Qi Cheng asked.
Ulysses Hornby, everyone in the empire called him Brigadier General Hornby, was the deputy of the general of the First Army, a rather young brigadier general, and after the original general of the First Army retired, he was extremely helpful. Possibly the new general.He is highly valued by Qi Huan, but now he has become Qi Cheng's confidant.
Hearing Qi Cheng's question, Ulysses proudly puffed out his chest, and said loudly, "Of course you can win, Your Highness."
"Qi Lan must think so too." Qi Cheng had no modesty or pride at all, his tone was very calm, he was just stating the simplest fact, "It is impossible for him to let the imperial army suffer heavy losses because of him, so He will definitely block the signal, land on the nearest planet secretly, contact the imperial capital secretly after getting help from the local army, and then return to the imperial capital on an inconspicuous spaceship. Once he returns to the imperial capital star, I will not be able to catch him again It's his time."
"So Your Highness, you will quickly sneak into all the planets closest to the unknown star field, and secretly control the army of this planet, pretending that the planet still belongs to the empire, and keep in touch with the empire to paralyze the empire and Qi Lan In this way, no matter where he falls, he will not be able to escape your palm." After hearing Qi Cheng's explanation, Ulysses looked admiring.
In his eyes, Qi Cheng is always the most powerful.He seems to be able to read minds, understand people's thoughts, know their next move, and never fail in every battle.
Qi Cheng was not proud of Ulysses' compliment, but his face became even uglier: "Qi Lan ran away before."
Qi Lan's escape was really a big blow to Qi Cheng.He cast a net all over the world, but he didn't expect to catch Qi Lan. This has never happened before.It was clear that Qi Lan had become his possession, but who knew that he was rescued by a small escape pod.
"Have you found out who was driving the escape pod at that time?" Qi Cheng decided to find this person, always thinking that if there are still variables, it must be on this person.
"No." Ulysses shook his head, "All the soldiers who set off from the empire will register their names. We compared all the names on the battleship with those who were killed in battle, and those lurking in the intelligence department also sent back survivors to the empire. I checked the list of victims, and found that no one was left behind, and a person appeared out of nowhere to take this escape pod."
Qi Cheng pondered for a moment and said: "It didn't start from the empire, that is, it boarded the battleship at Banyue Port like Qi Lan. Generally, even if someone came up halfway, there should be a record. At least Banyue Port and Tan Yeran will send a message to the empire." The information about this person, but for some unknown reason, both parties concealed the existence of this person, and he just took Qi Lan and escaped from under my nose... What's going on?"
Of course Qi Cheng was not asking Ulysses, but talking to himself.He walked to the side of the medical cabin, looked at Tan Yeran who was unconscious, put his hand on the medical cabin and asked, "You have always done things safely, but you just concealed the existence of a person. Why? It's not your character to start the 'fire'." , because even if it is activated, it may not be able to save Qi Lan, you never do anything you are not sure about, but you put all your eggs in one basket at that time, did you just trust the person who was driving the escape pod at that time?"
Qi Cheng spread out his palms and stared at the lines on his palms.He may be the legendary genius. From the time he remembered, everything around him was under his control, and he never missed anything.Others said he was scary, but in Qi Cheng's eyes, these were all very simple things, and he didn't bother much.Who is it that makes things start to go off track?
It doesn't matter.Qi Cheng slowly turned his palms into fists and clenched his fists tightly.No matter who it is, as long as he has seen this person and knows this existence, he cannot escape from his palm.Even if it's just a short escape, just like Qi Lan 20 years ago, it's only temporary, as long as he wants to, he will catch this person back sooner or later.
"Block all the interstellar ports on the nearby planets, and notify me as soon as you find an escape pod landing." If Qi Lan's ability is strong enough to make the entire escape pod invisible...
Qi Cheng added: "Let all the garrison troops lie quietly and concentrate on waiting for Qi Lan to ask for help."
"Yes!" Ulysses gave a military salute, and left the medical room to perform the task.
Everyone thought that Qi Cheng would escape from the empire and recruit troops outside the galaxy.But Qi Cheng did the opposite, developing secretly under the noses of the empire. His fighting ability and charisma were enough to make most of the army submit to him, and soon occupied several planets on the border.The planets that Qi Lan wanted to escape from had long since ceased to belong to the Edra Empire.
Qi Lan, who didn't know about it, avoided the rotating planet along the way, and also passed through a small meteorite group. It took a full week to reach the border of the unknown star field.The power of the two power stones is almost exhausted, and he must land and resupply.
"Why did you travel so far in a straight line when you entered the unknown star field?" Qi Lan asked incredulously, "And when I was driving the escape pod, I was almost crushed by a meteorite?"
Yang Xiaotian smiled at Qi Lan. At this moment, what else could he do besides smiling?
"Well, you are lucky." Qi Lan opened the star map and said to Yang Xiaotian, "Then you are lucky, tell me which planet we go to for supplies, so that we can return to the imperial capital smoothly. Qi Cheng must be stuck in the I am waiting for the signal to search for the escape pod near the unknown star field, and I don’t intend to take the risk of being caught and turn on the signal to ask the empire for help.”
Yang Xiaotian looked at the star-marked dots on the star map, looked left and right, and felt his heart trembling, so he shook his head vigorously.
"Neither one will work?" Qi Lan looked surprised, "But we have to resupply, and the energy is all exhausted. Are we going to float in the universe next?"
Yang Xiaotian nodded vigorously, this is possible.
Qi Lan: "..."
"You mean, block the signal of the escape pod, enter the empire's star field before the energy is exhausted, and then let it float in the universe, and then we will starve to death in the universe?" Qi Lan asked.
Hearing his description, Yang Xiaotian also felt that this was not feasible, but he really felt that no matter which planet he went to, there would be problems, and he always felt that there was an unknown danger waiting for the two of them.
Through this period of getting along, Qi Lan still believes in Yang Xiaotian's intuition. After all, no one can say for sure about the sixth sense, but it does exist.This feeling on the battlefield can often save your life, and this premonition of crisis cannot be ignored.
After tapping the star chart a few times with her finger, Qi Lan said decisively: "Since every one is dangerous, then we just don't let anyone find out."
Yang Xiaotian tilted his head to look at Qi Lan.
"The normal escape capsule should land on the interstellar port of the planet, receive supplies in the interstellar port, and use the space base station to set off again. If you think it is dangerous, then there must be something wrong with the interstellar port of these planets, maybe it is the same as Qi It's related. Although I was able to make the escape pod land in a completely invisible state, if it was Qi Cheng, he should have thought of this a long time ago. My mecha was almost caught by Qi Cheng before, which means that he also has countermeasures for being invisible. , so you can’t land at the interstellar port.” Qi Lan explained, “Since you can’t use the interstellar port, you can only smuggle in.”
Yang Xiaotian listened carefully, and nodded vigorously after hearing this suggestion.
"Why just nod your head, it's up to you to smuggle in." Qi Lan said to Yang Xiaotian, "Don't stare at me, even if your eyes are beautiful, I won't be tempted, I'm not tempted at all. Banyue Port is the largest interstellar port in the empire. All the defense systems of the interstellar port are set according to the standard of Banyue Port. You are an employee of Banyue Port, and you have been an intern with Randall for a period of time. You know the customs security system very well, right? Do you know how to land without being spotted by customs?"
Yang Xiaotian: "...I know that's right."
When he followed Randall, he was not only able to participate in the daily affairs of Half Moon Harbor, but also read a lot of books.These books include the defense system and security measures of the interstellar port, as well as some failed or successful smuggling cases.In his spare time, Randall would ask him to think about how to smuggle people from the interstellar port. If he wants to catch these people who take advantage of the loopholes, he must first understand their methods.
The devil is one foot tall, and the Tao must be one foot tall to restrain the opponent.
"That's good," Qi Lan nodded, pointing to the nearest star mark on the star map, "This is the closest and largest Alpha planet to us, and the location of the interstellar port is here. The scanning system of the interstellar port is spread all over the entire planet. Planet, although I can block the signal of the escape pod, and I can also be invisible, but the escape pod is too big, and my invisibility is not long, probably only for a moment, we must find the weakest position of the scanning system, can you calculate it?"
Yang Xiaotian looked at the panorama of Planet Alpha and nodded quietly.
If we want to become an excellent interstellar inspector, we have to start with smuggling.
"What!" Randall almost shattered the table in front of him after receiving the news from the imperial capital.
Qi Cheng unexpectedly did not leave the empire, but has been lurking in it.However, because of the information given by Qi Dingmao, the empire sent three armies to attack Fallen Star, but now all three armies have lost contact, and the battleship of the first army appeared inside the empire, and ambushed Qi Lan and Tan Yeran.
In Randall's view, the reason why these things happened was because of the negligence of Half Moon Harbor.First of all, they were overwhelmed by the shielding device found in Qi Dingmao's body, so they tried to dig out information from Qi Dingmao at all costs. Who knew that the information was obtained, but they were misled by the information, and they were led by Qi Cheng all the time. Walk.
Randall, who had just been punished, sat weakly on the chair, which was all caused by his negligence. But this time he confronted Qi Cheng, he finally understood why Qi Cheng was called the God of War back then, and was respected by everyone. Worship, this person is too scary, and his scheming is too deep.
The people who escaped from the battlefield only saw Qi Lan being covered by the light net at last, and what happened after that was unclear.Afterwards, the empire sent troops to check the battlefield, and found the wreckage of "Tinder" in the cosmic dust, which meant that Tan Yeran, who remained in the battleship, had died.
As for the whereabouts of Yang Xiaotian who escaped with them but is now missing, and the whereabouts of the crown prince Qi Lan who was covered by the optical net, the survivors are not clear.
Randall's heart was cold, because of his dereliction of duty, the empire lost a battleship named "Tinder", a secretary general, a squadron of soldiers, a talented crown prince and the crown prince of the empire... and he himself , Lost this lovely child Yang Xiaotian.
He shouldn't have agreed with Tan Yeran to let Yang Xiaotian escort Qi Lan, he shouldn't even let Yang Xiaotian participate in this inspection, so that Yang Xiaotian wouldn't find Qi Lan, and wouldn't follow them out of Banyue Harbor.
Thinking of the child who always looked at him with bright and innocent eyes, Randall felt anxious for a while. He really didn't want to believe that Yang Xiaotian died like this.Now he is still suppressing the news so that no one will know. Yang Xiaotian's mother, Zhao Yu, thought that her son had been recommended by the Imperial Customs University to participate in the pre-exam training, and was waiting for her son at home with high hopes. Possibly sacrificed...
A kid who is only 19 years old...
Randall's hands trembled a little. He was not married and had no children, but in Yang Xiaotian, he really felt the family affection.He was sad not because of himself, but because of such a lovely and excellent child...
and many more!
Randall turned on his personal terminal and carefully observed the on-site images sent by the empire and the wreckage of the battleships collected.Search and rescue personnel collected all the wreckage they saw and examined it.Some of these warships came from "Tinder", and some were small warships that were attacked at that time. There were still corpses of soldiers who were killed by one blow in the warships, but among all the wreckage, not even a single fragment belonged to the escape pod.
In other words, all the escape pods at that time left the battlefield, and luckily none of them were hit.
how can that be!
If he were Qi Cheng, he would definitely catch them all and no one would be allowed to escape, but why did he let those escape pods go?Unless something happened at that time, he had to let go of those escape pods.It's a pity that "Tinder" has been destroyed, and the black boxes of all battleships have been taken away...
Wait, even the black box was taken away, why so many people escaped from the battlefield?
Something must have happened that made it impossible for Qi Cheng to catch all the escape pods.Is it because of Tinder's self-destruction?Not too possible.
Randall looked at the pictures over and over again, trying to find even the slightest evidence in them that Yang Xiaotian was still alive.
At the same time, Qi Huan, who was in the imperial capital, also looked at the information repeatedly. He really couldn't believe that Qi Lan was captured and Tan Yeran was sacrificed like this.
His son and his most important friends and subordinates simply left him like this. Qi Huan didn't believe it at all. He watched it repeatedly, and called the survivors back to question, trying to find a glimmer of life among them.
After all, they didn't see Tan Yeran's body, did they?No one actually saw Qi Lan being taken away.All the black boxes were taken away by Qi Cheng, what was he trying to hide?Is there anything he doesn't want the empire to know?
Apart from Tan Yeran, Qi Huan is the person who knows Qi Cheng best in the world.It's a pity that the gap between them and Qi Cheng is too great, even if they know so well, Qi Huan can only analyze Qi Cheng's purpose after the fact, but can't understand Qi Cheng's purpose before the event.Every time he could only follow behind Qi Cheng, and he could only regret why he didn't find out at that time.
According to Qi Huan's understanding of Qi Cheng, instead of killing all the escape pods, he took away the black boxes of the remaining battleships. This can be said to be quite aggrieved. So what happened at that time?
Even though Qi Huan didn't know about Yang Xiaotian's existence, like Randall, he found the only escape pod that failed to escape back to the empire but could not be found among the wreckage.Intuition or strong analytical ability told Qi Huan that all the problems came from this escape pod.Compared with Randall, Qi Huan, as the emperor, also has greater authority. All the escape pods on the "Tinder" have a positioning system, as long as the escape pods are not destroyed, as long as they are still within the range of the empire's star map within, you will be able to find it.
But no, there is no escape pod in the star map, and there are no fragments of it in the wreckage.
"If an escape pod didn't crash, but it can't be found on the star map, what's the reason?" Qi Huan asked.
The person in the technical department thought for a while and replied: "Either its signal is blocked by something, or it is no longer on the territory of the empire."
"Blocking the signal?" Qi Huan shook his head. According to their speculation, Qi Cheng made the shielding device based on the cell samples left by Qi Lan in the laboratory. Without Qi Lan's cells, the effect of the shielding device would be ineffective. There are so good.Qi Cheng has limited cell samples, and with the cost of the experiment, the shielding device in his hand must also be limited, otherwise Qi Cheng would have directly attacked the empire long ago, and would not have adopted such a low-key method of lurking.It is precisely because of this that Qi Cheng would not hesitate to expose his hidden strength to ambush the battleship, just to get Qi Lan's body.With the scarcity of jammers, Qi Cheng would not block the signal of an escape pod, it would be enough to destroy it, why would he block it.
Not on the empire map... Qi Huan tapped the table with his fingers, and said to his opponent, "I want the star map on the battlefield at that time and the last signal from the missing escape pod."
Because it is the escape pod of the empire, as long as it is activated, it will send a signal to the empire, which will make it easier for people to rescue.The escape pod that Yang Xiaotian was riding in was initially positioned at the Imperial Capital, and at the same time as it was positioned, the escape pod sent a distress signal to the Imperial Capital, but the signal lasted less than a minute and then disappeared, and it has never been seen since then.The battlefield Qi Cheng chose was relatively remote, at the junction of the star map of the Edra Empire and the unknown star field, and because it was such a remote place, it was suitable for ambushes.
"Unknown star field..." Qi Huan's finger slid across the star map, and the flame of hope was ignited in his eyes.
If this is the case, then Qi Cheng's approach can be explained.
Qi Cheng's goal is Qi Lan. From Qi Lan, he can research many things, such as the reason for Qi Lan's awakening of supernatural powers, such as the mass production of shielding devices, all of which require him.If Qi Cheng had already got Qi Lan, then he wouldn't go to great lengths to get the black box.If the purpose was Qi Lan, then taking away the black box on the battleship could only be for one reason—Qi Cheng didn't catch Qi Lan, in order to prevent the empire from getting the information of Qi Lan's whereabouts, he rushed to find him before the empire, so he took the black box away .
Therefore, the current Qi Lan must be in the unknown star field!
Qi Huan immediately said: "Notify the search and rescue team and the star field development department to explore this unknown star field immediately. Arrange troops to protect the exploration team so as not to encounter enemies during the development of the star field."
The oxygen and nutrients in the escape pod are limited. It is unknown how long Qi Lan can last. The longer the time drags on, the less likely Qi Lan will survive. They must hurry up.Even if it is a corpse, Qi Cheng cannot be the first to find him!
At this time, Qi Lan and Yang Xiaotian didn't know that the empire and Qi Cheng had tried their best to find them, and they were still studying how to fill them with energy stones.And after more than 40 days, they finally found a way to recharge the two energy stones, and they were able to leave the original star.
After installing the energy stone on the escape pod, Qi Lan turned on the light screen and was shocked when he found the route map of Yang Xiaotian's escape.
"We have already gone so deep into the unknown star field?" Qi Lan said, "And you have been walking in a straight line without changing direction at all. How did you find this living planet all of a sudden?"
Qi Lan is well aware of the way the empire develops star fields and finds people in the universe. In order to avoid getting lost in unknown star fields, whether it is search and rescue or development, she will be careful. First, set up supply points on nearby planets to understand the operation of nearby planets. The method is to launch satellites, and after incorporating this star field into the empire's territory, it will slowly go deeper.If you are looking for someone, the speed will be faster, but you must also understand the way the stars work and whether there are dangerous stars such as meteorite groups or black holes and white holes nearby, so that you can go looking for them.
According to their current level of depth, it will take at least 20 years to develop the star field to find this place, and it will take three to five years to search and rescue faster.
And if they haven't found him for three to five years, who would believe that he can live?
With the support of the escape pod, the best search and rescue period is three months, and the survival period is half a year. After half a year, no one can be found. Even if Qi Huan wants to find someone, the Congress will not agree to spend so much money to find someone.If he wanted to be rescued, he would probably have to wait for the Star Field Development Department to expand the star map to this point before he could return to the empire.At that time, he was probably in his 70s or [-]s, and he didn't know how long he had lived a life of bare hair and drinking blood.
"You're really lucky." Qi Lan was so shocked to the end that she could only express such emotions.
Whoever said it wasn't, just escaped from Qi Cheng's pursuit, and just found this living planet. The energy of the escape pod was only enough to drive in a straight line to get here, and he just happened to drive in a straight line without wasting any energy. When encountering any dangerous planet, this kind of luck is unstoppable.
It was precisely because of Yang Xiaotian's luck that they were able to escape from Qi Cheng's hands with a narrow escape.
Yang Xiaotian smiled flatly and said, "It's not luck, it's just that I can survive if I walk in this direction."
There are two fluffy ears on his head, it looks like that young face is very cute, but there is such a calm smile, this kind of high contrast makes Qi Lan's heart tremble.
The crown prince stretched out his hand with a cold face, and hugged Yang Xiaotian's shoulders like a buddy, and patted Yang Xiaotian vigorously a few times before saying, "I'll make you feel awkward."
After speaking, he patted Yang Xiaotian's head again, and pinched those beautiful pointed ears by the way.
Yang Xiaotian's ears trembled, he seemed a little uncomfortable, but he didn't stop Qi Lan, but looked at Qi Lan with wet and aggrieved eyes, then turned his head, and looked seriously at the light screen that he couldn't understand at all.
Qi Lan was instantly killed by those eyes and ears, turned her head and took a bite of the astringent fruit, then calmed down, and rushed over to kiss Yang Xiaotian's cheek without impulse.
Since they have been eating the food on the planet, their nutritional supplements still have half a month's worth, which is enough for the two of them to return to the empire smoothly.But to be on the safe side, they still brought a bunch of easy-to-storage food to prevent emergencies on the road.
Before leaving, Qi Lan said to the planet that saved them: "Goodbye, I will come back in the future."
On this lonely planet, someone has been with him all the time.They went to find food together and explored the planet together.When they were tired, they lay down together to rest, and when they woke up, they would see a pair of pointed ears moving back and forth on their chests.If there is anything worth remembering about this broken planet with unlovable animals, unpalatable plants, and hard-to-find energy sources, it must be the person next to him.
Because this planet is a memory of two people alone.
Because of this person, when Qi Lan left the planet, a little bit of reluctance rose in her heart.
Back in the empire, they were about to part.Yang Xiaotian will return to Banyue Port, and he will hunt down Qi Lan together with the Imperial Army, and they will all devote themselves to intense and busy work.Or, Yang Xiaotian's ears and tail were taken away by the Imperial Research Institute, trying to find a way to solve his atavism phenomenon... In that case, Qi Lan decided that he would enter the research institute with Yang Xiaotian, and let them study the secrets of his abilities, so that Yang Xiaotian would not be spared. One is treated unfairly in it.
In any case, they will never be as peaceful as they are now.
Everything in the original star will become a short and beautiful dream. Although there is despair of solitary survival, it is so warm.
When there was no way to escape, they desperately searched for a way out, never stopping to enjoy this rare moment of peace.Now that she was about to leave, Qi Lan realized that in just two months, she had left so many memories.
Yang Xiaotian who frowned after eating the bitter fruit, Yang Xiaotian who never forgot to vigilantly move his ears from time to time while sleeping, Yang Xiaotian who killed primitive star creatures with vigorous skills, Yang Xiaotian who looked at him with firm eyes and told him that he would definitely be able to go back...
Every different face converges into a strong, calm, cute and powerful boy. He is only 19 years old this year, but Qi Lan can see his glorious future. He will definitely become a pillar of the empire. Together, he becomes the new pillar of the empire.
"Yang Xiaotian," Qi Lan stretched out his hand to hold the hands of the people around him, and said in a deep voice, "I will catch Qi Cheng, and I will become a qualified emperor. I will try my best to make life better for the people of the empire. You have become a victim of genetic research, and when you return to the empire, you will go to university and become an excellent person, when the time comes, will you be willing to work for me?"
Yang Xiaotian looked at Qi Lan quietly, and his heart was agitated.
Since his master passed away in his previous life, Xiaotian has no one in his heart who can be his master.His mother is a relative, and Inspector Sharp is an officer, but they are not the masters he recognizes as being able to depend on each other.But now, this person in front of him wants to be his master and let him be loyal to him, is he willing?
For dogs, loyalty is not because they are willing to be enslaved, but because they love their master deeply and are willing to suppress their own desires for the command of the master.They may like many people, but the one they really love the most is only the master they recognize in their hearts.
And Qi Lan, can he become Yang Xiaotian's master, his spiritual partner who depends on life and death?
No, at least not now.
So under Qi Lan's expectant eyes, Yang Xiaotian shook his head firmly: "I can carry out all the orders from my superiors, and I can serve the emperor of the empire, but I can't like you wholeheartedly."
Qi Lan: "..."
Why is it that he obviously just extended an olive branch to his outstanding future subordinates, but it seems that his courtship has been rejected?And he is really heartbroken now, as if he has lost his love!
"Hmph, it sounds like I like you, I just asked if you would like to serve the empire, hum!" Qi Lan snorted twice, clutching her bleeding heart, pressed the takeoff button, and drove to escape The cabin leaves the original star.
His emotions, a young boy's heart that had just sprouted, were shattered by Yang Xiaotian's words. He didn't want to look at Yang Xiaotian again, and he didn't want to touch his ears no matter how cute they were.
The escape capsule took off slowly and left the planet where the two depended on each other for life.
This time it was Qi Lan who was driving the escape pod. Compared to Yang Xiaotian, Qi Lan's driving skills were better.He intends to return by the same route that Yang Xiaotian came from, but this time he can’t be so fast, he has to turn on the scanning system. After all, the stars in the universe are moving at any time. It has been two months, and the way he came may not be possible. suit them.
Yang Xiaotian was watching the scanned image closely beside him, assisting Qi Lan in driving.
As long as they leave here, they will be able to return to Half Moon Harbor...
really can?Yang Xiaotian suddenly had a hidden worry in his heart, always felt that this time there was still no way to return to Banyue Harbor.There are too many unknowns in the universe, can they really go back smoothly?Even if he could go back, he might still be left in the Imperial Research Institute because of his ears and tail.
The most important thing is that Yang Xiaotian has always felt a little itchy recently.Primordial Star has plenty of water, and he takes a bath every day. It is not because of hygiene problems that his body feels itchy, so what is the reason?I remembered that before my tail grew out, the position of the tailbone was very itchy. When the ears grew out, the original human ears would also be very itchy.Now he's itching all over...
Yang Xiaotian didn't dare to think about it anymore. He only hoped that he could return to Banyue Harbor and become a dog again. At least Dr. Guy and Inspector Sharp could help him restore his human form without telling others. If others find out... …
That ominous premonition made him a little flustered, he couldn't help reaching out and grabbing Qi Lan's clothes, his face was also pale, and he looked very scared.
Qi Lan, who had just been rejected, coldly glanced at the hand that was grabbing the corner of her clothes, and snorted coldly, now that she is scared, she begged him, just now...wrong, scared?Yang Xiaotian is such a calm person, he is not afraid of facing Qi Cheng's battleship, he is not afraid when he is so desperate in the original star, now he can return to the empire, what is he afraid of?
Operate the equipment with one hand and hold Yang Xiaotian's fingers with the other. Even if he is afraid, Yang Xiaotian's hand is still warmer than Qi Lan's. Cold-blooded animals can't bring him warmth at all.
"Don't be afraid," Qi Lan said, "I will protect you."
Yang Xiaotian lowered his eyes, his eyelashes trembled slightly, looking very disturbed.
Qi Lan said distressedly: "Are you too tired? Otherwise, just lie down and sleep for a while, I'm in good spirits."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Xiaotian fell down directly and lay down with his legs under his head.That is to say, the body type does not match, otherwise Yang Xiaotian could shrink into Qi Lan's lap.
Qi Lan: "..."
There is a sleeping cabin next to you, why do you have to lie on my lap if you don’t lie down!And you just dumped me didn't you?Why can you turn your head and knee pillow without hesitation?
Although she was very conflicted in her heart, Qi Lan still didn't push Yang Xiaotian away, but stretched out her hand to comfort his head, pinched his quivering ears, and patted Yang Xiaotian's back.
Xiaotian, who was appeased, calmed down a little, maybe it wasn't as scary as he thought, and they would be fine.
Thinking of this, Xiaotian quietly closed his eyes and slept next to Qi Lan.
"The empire's search and rescue team has been wandering around for almost two months." A tall man was sitting next to the medical cabin, and inside the cabin was a comatose person. Looking carefully, it was the person who should have self-destructed because of the "fire seed". And Tan Yeran, who had disappeared into ashes.
"Your Highness, we have been waiting on this planet without searching deeply. The Imperial Search and Rescue Team has not found Qi Lan after searching for two months. Has he already..." A blond man in a black uniform stood behind Qi Cheng, with embroidered clothes on his uniform. Wearing a dark golden dragon pattern, it is the costume of the Royal Guard of the First Group Army. It was the same costume that Qi Lan wore when he was captured by Yang Xiaotian in Banyue Harbor.
"No," Qi Cheng turned his head, revealing a more mature and handsome face that is very similar to Qi Lan, his eyes are deep and bottomless, and his expression is calm, no one can read his thoughts from his face, " Qi Lan's vitality is very strong, he will not die so easily."
"But... this is an undeveloped star field, and Qi Lan only has a small escape pod. Now more than two months have passed, and in half a month, the best search and rescue period will pass..." The blond man looked worried said.
"There are emergency medicines in the rescue cabin. Qi Lan's injuries are not serious, and he will recover soon. His body can survive in any environment for a period of time, and he can search for an energy-rich planet to replenish energy before returning to the empire." Qi Cheng analyzed, "Although there are many unknown dangers in the universe, Qi Lan's ability is enough to allow him to avoid these risks. He will return to the empire, and in order to avoid me, he will definitely use his ability to send the signal from the escape pod to the sky. shield."
"Why do you need to block the signal? Isn't it so that the empire can't find him?" The blond man asked inexplicably. How can anyone who wants to survive block the signal? In the vast and boundless universe, wouldn't this be courting death?
"Because the warships of the First Army I occupied can also scan his signal. If the signal of the escape pod is not blocked, the imperial search and rescue team is very likely to find him with me. At that time, the imperial army will definitely have a second meeting with me." Confrontation, when the time comes, who do you think will win? Ulysses Hornby." Qi Cheng asked.
Ulysses Hornby, everyone in the empire called him Brigadier General Hornby, was the deputy of the general of the First Army, a rather young brigadier general, and after the original general of the First Army retired, he was extremely helpful. Possibly the new general.He is highly valued by Qi Huan, but now he has become Qi Cheng's confidant.
Hearing Qi Cheng's question, Ulysses proudly puffed out his chest, and said loudly, "Of course you can win, Your Highness."
"Qi Lan must think so too." Qi Cheng had no modesty or pride at all, his tone was very calm, he was just stating the simplest fact, "It is impossible for him to let the imperial army suffer heavy losses because of him, so He will definitely block the signal, land on the nearest planet secretly, contact the imperial capital secretly after getting help from the local army, and then return to the imperial capital on an inconspicuous spaceship. Once he returns to the imperial capital star, I will not be able to catch him again It's his time."
"So Your Highness, you will quickly sneak into all the planets closest to the unknown star field, and secretly control the army of this planet, pretending that the planet still belongs to the empire, and keep in touch with the empire to paralyze the empire and Qi Lan In this way, no matter where he falls, he will not be able to escape your palm." After hearing Qi Cheng's explanation, Ulysses looked admiring.
In his eyes, Qi Cheng is always the most powerful.He seems to be able to read minds, understand people's thoughts, know their next move, and never fail in every battle.
Qi Cheng was not proud of Ulysses' compliment, but his face became even uglier: "Qi Lan ran away before."
Qi Lan's escape was really a big blow to Qi Cheng.He cast a net all over the world, but he didn't expect to catch Qi Lan. This has never happened before.It was clear that Qi Lan had become his possession, but who knew that he was rescued by a small escape pod.
"Have you found out who was driving the escape pod at that time?" Qi Cheng decided to find this person, always thinking that if there are still variables, it must be on this person.
"No." Ulysses shook his head, "All the soldiers who set off from the empire will register their names. We compared all the names on the battleship with those who were killed in battle, and those lurking in the intelligence department also sent back survivors to the empire. I checked the list of victims, and found that no one was left behind, and a person appeared out of nowhere to take this escape pod."
Qi Cheng pondered for a moment and said: "It didn't start from the empire, that is, it boarded the battleship at Banyue Port like Qi Lan. Generally, even if someone came up halfway, there should be a record. At least Banyue Port and Tan Yeran will send a message to the empire." The information about this person, but for some unknown reason, both parties concealed the existence of this person, and he just took Qi Lan and escaped from under my nose... What's going on?"
Of course Qi Cheng was not asking Ulysses, but talking to himself.He walked to the side of the medical cabin, looked at Tan Yeran who was unconscious, put his hand on the medical cabin and asked, "You have always done things safely, but you just concealed the existence of a person. Why? It's not your character to start the 'fire'." , because even if it is activated, it may not be able to save Qi Lan, you never do anything you are not sure about, but you put all your eggs in one basket at that time, did you just trust the person who was driving the escape pod at that time?"
Qi Cheng spread out his palms and stared at the lines on his palms.He may be the legendary genius. From the time he remembered, everything around him was under his control, and he never missed anything.Others said he was scary, but in Qi Cheng's eyes, these were all very simple things, and he didn't bother much.Who is it that makes things start to go off track?
It doesn't matter.Qi Cheng slowly turned his palms into fists and clenched his fists tightly.No matter who it is, as long as he has seen this person and knows this existence, he cannot escape from his palm.Even if it's just a short escape, just like Qi Lan 20 years ago, it's only temporary, as long as he wants to, he will catch this person back sooner or later.
"Block all the interstellar ports on the nearby planets, and notify me as soon as you find an escape pod landing." If Qi Lan's ability is strong enough to make the entire escape pod invisible...
Qi Cheng added: "Let all the garrison troops lie quietly and concentrate on waiting for Qi Lan to ask for help."
"Yes!" Ulysses gave a military salute, and left the medical room to perform the task.
Everyone thought that Qi Cheng would escape from the empire and recruit troops outside the galaxy.But Qi Cheng did the opposite, developing secretly under the noses of the empire. His fighting ability and charisma were enough to make most of the army submit to him, and soon occupied several planets on the border.The planets that Qi Lan wanted to escape from had long since ceased to belong to the Edra Empire.
Qi Lan, who didn't know about it, avoided the rotating planet along the way, and also passed through a small meteorite group. It took a full week to reach the border of the unknown star field.The power of the two power stones is almost exhausted, and he must land and resupply.
"Why did you travel so far in a straight line when you entered the unknown star field?" Qi Lan asked incredulously, "And when I was driving the escape pod, I was almost crushed by a meteorite?"
Yang Xiaotian smiled at Qi Lan. At this moment, what else could he do besides smiling?
"Well, you are lucky." Qi Lan opened the star map and said to Yang Xiaotian, "Then you are lucky, tell me which planet we go to for supplies, so that we can return to the imperial capital smoothly. Qi Cheng must be stuck in the I am waiting for the signal to search for the escape pod near the unknown star field, and I don’t intend to take the risk of being caught and turn on the signal to ask the empire for help.”
Yang Xiaotian looked at the star-marked dots on the star map, looked left and right, and felt his heart trembling, so he shook his head vigorously.
"Neither one will work?" Qi Lan looked surprised, "But we have to resupply, and the energy is all exhausted. Are we going to float in the universe next?"
Yang Xiaotian nodded vigorously, this is possible.
Qi Lan: "..."
"You mean, block the signal of the escape pod, enter the empire's star field before the energy is exhausted, and then let it float in the universe, and then we will starve to death in the universe?" Qi Lan asked.
Hearing his description, Yang Xiaotian also felt that this was not feasible, but he really felt that no matter which planet he went to, there would be problems, and he always felt that there was an unknown danger waiting for the two of them.
Through this period of getting along, Qi Lan still believes in Yang Xiaotian's intuition. After all, no one can say for sure about the sixth sense, but it does exist.This feeling on the battlefield can often save your life, and this premonition of crisis cannot be ignored.
After tapping the star chart a few times with her finger, Qi Lan said decisively: "Since every one is dangerous, then we just don't let anyone find out."
Yang Xiaotian tilted his head to look at Qi Lan.
"The normal escape capsule should land on the interstellar port of the planet, receive supplies in the interstellar port, and use the space base station to set off again. If you think it is dangerous, then there must be something wrong with the interstellar port of these planets, maybe it is the same as Qi It's related. Although I was able to make the escape pod land in a completely invisible state, if it was Qi Cheng, he should have thought of this a long time ago. My mecha was almost caught by Qi Cheng before, which means that he also has countermeasures for being invisible. , so you can’t land at the interstellar port.” Qi Lan explained, “Since you can’t use the interstellar port, you can only smuggle in.”
Yang Xiaotian listened carefully, and nodded vigorously after hearing this suggestion.
"Why just nod your head, it's up to you to smuggle in." Qi Lan said to Yang Xiaotian, "Don't stare at me, even if your eyes are beautiful, I won't be tempted, I'm not tempted at all. Banyue Port is the largest interstellar port in the empire. All the defense systems of the interstellar port are set according to the standard of Banyue Port. You are an employee of Banyue Port, and you have been an intern with Randall for a period of time. You know the customs security system very well, right? Do you know how to land without being spotted by customs?"
Yang Xiaotian: "...I know that's right."
When he followed Randall, he was not only able to participate in the daily affairs of Half Moon Harbor, but also read a lot of books.These books include the defense system and security measures of the interstellar port, as well as some failed or successful smuggling cases.In his spare time, Randall would ask him to think about how to smuggle people from the interstellar port. If he wants to catch these people who take advantage of the loopholes, he must first understand their methods.
The devil is one foot tall, and the Tao must be one foot tall to restrain the opponent.
"That's good," Qi Lan nodded, pointing to the nearest star mark on the star map, "This is the closest and largest Alpha planet to us, and the location of the interstellar port is here. The scanning system of the interstellar port is spread all over the entire planet. Planet, although I can block the signal of the escape pod, and I can also be invisible, but the escape pod is too big, and my invisibility is not long, probably only for a moment, we must find the weakest position of the scanning system, can you calculate it?"
Yang Xiaotian looked at the panorama of Planet Alpha and nodded quietly.
If we want to become an excellent interstellar inspector, we have to start with smuggling.
