The male protagonist tricked me

That night, everyone held a meeting late into the night with great enthusiasm, discussing many issues with each other.

This was the first time, even though Song Ao wasn't even present, and no one even assigned them the tasks they needed to do, everyone felt the intimacy of their cooperation.

For everyone, this is a novel experience and an unforgettable memory.

But in the end, Bai Yu uttered an exciting news, but also brought a difficult problem to solve.

"In short, it's roughly like this." At the meeting the next day, everyone told Song Ao and Jiang Heng the results that had been sorted out, and raised their biggest problem so far.

Right now, the channel between the two worlds has been opened, and the area on the ground that was damaged by the shock wave has also been repaired and rebuilt.

At present, at the entrance of the original ancient secret realm in the royal garden, the high platform to enter has been completely destroyed, replaced by a star power channel shaped like a black hole.

After Kuang Yin and Kuang Sheng's information linkage, they have now determined that this passage is somewhat similar to a wormhole, but unlike a wormhole, it is filled with very violent and lethal power of the star sea, which makes people from this passage Passing through the passage seemed a bit difficult.

"After the stabilization, the higher authorities conducted a material test, and concluded that if we want to pass through this channel, the fixing materials we used to cast the starship before are not very good. In this level of star sea power Under the environment, the longest durability is only three hours. But at present, we are not sure whether we can get from one end to the other in three hours..." Bai Yu's expression was a little serious.

"Of course, we can't rely on all the above, so we have also conducted material tests here, and I have found a material with high durability, but this also brings new problems."

"What's the problem?" Song Ao asked.

Bai Yu took a deep breath. This was the first time she independently carried out experiments and commanded the casting of starships. It was impossible not to be excited.

After all, in the Bai family, even if she is very talented and very favored, she will not be allowed to lead the casting of a starship by herself when she is just an adult.

"The material I found...is exactly the outer shell of the Star Force Cocoon Room! Their structure is very special. Judging from the results of the current test, it is the most durable of all materials, and it is the most durable material in the Star Sea Force. Under erosion, they seem to be unbroken, and they can continue to reorganize and regenerate, becoming stronger layer by layer, which is incredible!"

When talking about this brand new material, Bai Yu's eyes couldn't help but sparkle with excitement.

If this material can be applied on a large scale, in the future interstellar voyage, the starship will be able to better deal with more situations!

"But..." Bai Yu changed the subject and became frowning again, "But I found another strange thing about this material, they are more like some kind of 'living body' than 'material' , seem to have their own set of organizational rules, and I can't control them very well."

"We discussed for a long time yesterday, but we couldn't find a solution, and it was too late, so I asked everyone to go back to rest first. When the meeting is over, if everyone has time, I hope everyone You can take a look with me."

After listening to Bai Yu's narration, a thought came to Song Ao's mind - although it was a bit absurd, it seemed to be able to explain Bai Yu's current situation very well.

It's just that he hasn't seen the scene yet, and he can't be sure, so Song Ao raised his head, just in time to meet Jiang Heng's gaze.Jiang Heng looked thoughtful, and seemed to think of the same direction as him.

Thinking of this, Song Ao's mood also relaxed a bit.

Even if it's not what he thought, there will always be a way. They even got over the more difficult situation. The current situation is really not a big problem.

So Song Ao said: "Everyone handles other things well. If there is any problem, we will communicate in time. Like the situation last night, in fact, you can come and call me, Jiang Heng, and Lu Fenghua together."

"Don't do it." Hearing this, Lu Fenghua joked, "It's good for you young people to work hard for your career together, so let us old people have a good rest?"

His face was as young as everyone else's, and he didn't have any credibility when he said this, but it made everyone laugh.

"Okay." Song Ao looked at his little uncle helplessly, "I don't have anything important to do here, why don't we all go and see what Bai Yu said?"

Everyone nodded. The situation in Tiancheng has gradually stabilized and improved, and the starship that Bai Yu is going to build here is their hope to return to the empire. Naturally, everyone is extremely concerned.

So a group of people moved from the conference room and walked to the back mountain together.

Yes, the original location of the fuel area was cleaned up and rebuilt on the spot, and now it has become the base for starship casting.

Tiancheng was originally small, and the number of residents was quite limited, so even though other things in the city had developed, it was extremely lacking in transportation.

"Industrialized production is impossible. Without this condition, let alone this technology." While walking on the road, Bai Yu explained, "I was very distressed at the beginning, because with Tiancheng's current conditions, it was completely impossible. Casting the kind of starship we are familiar with... But when Lu Fenghua went to find you, I thought of another thing. In fact, there is no need for me to make such a thing! As long as the goal can be achieved Just make a special starship that allows us to shuttle between the two sides.”

Song Ao nodded in agreement, "It's a good idea, and we will actually solve it according to local conditions."

"Hehe, I also think I'm awesome." Bai Yu said with a smile, but when she didn't know it, she didn't even seem to notice it. Step by step, she gradually not only regarded Song Ao as a companion, but More like a respectable leader.

A group of people came to the location where the starship was cast in the back mountain, and beside it stood a huge "iron shell", which was being constructed by some Tiancheng people according to the instructions.

This group of workers were all selected from the people who were brought together by Jiang Zijin to clean up the back mountain, so they were relatively more reliable.

"It's this kind of material." Bai Yu picked up the brown shell on the ground, "Say they are alive, and I don't know what they feed on, or say they are not alive. This amazing ability of self-healing and reorganization is incredible. As if no living organism could do it."

While speaking, Bai Yu pulled out a dagger and slashed at the shell, "Look, this kind of damage won't do anything to this shell."

As she spoke, she led everyone to the channel of star power, and inserted a small shell in her hand into the channel of star sea power, "In this case, they have strong vitality, constantly regenerating and reorganizing, Even... this process seems to be some kind of tempering for them."

Bai Yu took out the "tempered" shell again, and the original brown shell began to shine with a layer of black and golden light, making it more compact and hard.

"The properties of the material are very good, but there is a big problem in the production... No matter what method I try to use, how to divide it, even if it is a sentence fixed on the outer shell of the starship, after a while, they It will automatically peel off again and return to the ground like this."

Bai Yu pointed to the people's feet, and everyone looked down, only to see those shells piled up on the ground that still kept the appearance of the "star power cocoon".

"I've been studying it for a while." Bai Yu said, "I always feel like they have been given an order to maintain a fixed form. No matter how they are changed, they will eventually return to this form."

"This ensures that even if the passage is opened, no one can directly shuttle from the two worlds from the beginning... But since Lu Cheng plans to directly open the passage, it is impossible not to prepare a way to travel through this star power passage? "Lin Youyou said uncertainly.

"It's hard to say." Zhang Moxi shook his head, "I think it's not surprising that a lunatic like Lu Cheng does anything, and I'm afraid he doesn't know what it looks like after the passage is opened, and he didn't prepare transportation. It's possible too."

"No." Xia Juedai on the side said at this time, "Although Lu Cheng is a bit crazy, he is a thoughtful and thoughtful guy. He likes to count any possibility... this time we The fact that he was able to catch him by surprise is really because he thought the two of us were dead long ago, and never thought that we would suddenly appear to disrupt his plan."

In this regard, Song Ao also agreed. Lu Cheng was thoughtful and vicious. When he coaxed him into the so-called "cooperation", he had already laid hands on him, intending to put him to death.

Song Ao looked at the shells on the ground again, and remembered the speculation in his heart when he first heard about it, "Perhaps, he is not unprepared, just saying that we don't know." Song Ao squatted down , also took a shell from the ground and got it up.

According to the documents they sorted out, although Tiancheng could not cultivate because he did not have the power of the star sea, the people of Tiancheng were affected by the environment, and their spiritual power was much higher than that of the people of the empire.This makes Tiancheng people very outstanding in learning, and the effect is much better than ordinary people.

At the same time, the Lu family held the secret book of controlling Gu in their own hands, controlled the Gu insects with extremely strong mental power, and then used the power of the star sea obtained from the fuel area to feed these Gu insects... …

The complete set of equipment in the entire fuel area is controlled by Gu insects, and the star power cocoons that housed them at that time are also likely to be part of Gu insects.

Song Ao held the brown shell in his hand, his mind moved slightly, and he turned to look at Jiang Heng.

He can't use his own power of the star sea now, if he wants to use the power of the star sea, he must borrow others.

Jiang Heng met his eyes, quickly understood what he meant, and stood beside Song Ao.

Song Ao didn't want others to see that there was something wrong with his body. Fortunately, Jiang Heng's Xinghai level had broken through to the ninth floor, and he could send the power of the Xinghai into Song Ao's body even through the air. The effect of sticking to the teleportation is good.

Soon, Song Ao felt the power of the star sea began to flow in his body - without the help of external force, the finger on his thumb would be dutiful and slowly released with the minimum power of the star sea, Nurturing Song Ao's meridians and Xinghai, so that they will not be exhausted.

At this time, when the power of the external star sea enters, the finger will instead start to absorb the power from the star sea, accumulating energy for itself.

Song Ao invoked the power of the star sea in his body, and input it into the shell in his hand.

Everyone's eyes couldn't help turning around, and they saw that the brown shell in Song Ao's hand was lit up by the power of the star sea, as if it had been injected with a new program, and it changed its shape automatically in Song Ao's hand!

Song Ao's eyes also dimmed slightly, it seems that his guess was not wrong, the outer shell of the star power cocoon was indeed made of Gu insects!Or to be more precise, it is made up of a part of Gu worms.

"You want them to attach to the outer shell of the starship?" Song Ao didn't stop the power of the star sea in his hand, but turned his eyes to the starship that was already in its infancy.

"Yes!" Bai Yu's eyes sparkled with excitement, "That's it!"

Song Ao walked to the side of the starship, thought for a while, and stuck a piece of brown shell with changed shape on the shell of the starship.

Everyone saw that the shell seemed to have its own consciousness, and it immediately changed its shape, covering the shell of the starship accurately and snugly.

It even looks like they grow naturally on this layer of shell, without any trace of splicing.

Everyone couldn't help showing their surprised gazes, and Jiang Zijin even picked up a brown shell, trying to inject his star power into it.

However, nothing happened.

Everyone's suspicious eyes fell on Song Ao again.

"Why?" Jiang Zijin looked at the unmoving brown shell in his hand, then at the shell that was still being attached to the outer wall of the starship through Song Ao's hand, looked at Song Ao solemnly and said: "Could it be that you are the one chosen by God?"

Seeing his serious face, Song Ao thought that Jiang Zijin was going to make some inferences, but he didn't expect that after going around, this guy is still like this... He is really a good hand at telling jokes unexpectedly.

"There is no magic." Song Ao smiled, "I have some conjectures, but they still need to be verified... In short, everyone should continue to work step by step, and I will tell you when I confirm it."

Although everyone was still very curious, since Song Ao had already said that, they all suppressed themselves and went to work on their own affairs.

"I'm afraid it's because of Gu in my body." After everyone left, Song Ao turned his head and said to Jiang Heng, "The materials in the library have not been sorted out, but it seems... because there is no way to use the power of the star sea to practice, Tiancheng In fact, a completely different development route has been evolved by using spiritual power and voodoo. The birth and development of civilization is indeed a combination of inevitability and chance."

"It's normal." Jiang Heng said, "The world you stayed in didn't use the power of the stars and spiritual power, but didn't they also develop a very large civilization?"

"Yes." Song Ao nodded, "I'm just a little hesitant. I don't know if I should reappear in front of everyone's eyes like Gu, which has disappeared from the world for too long."

"You always like to worry about some hypothetical things." Jiang Heng wrapped his arms around Song Ao's waist, put his palm on the place close to Xinghai, and pushed him back slightly, "It's like you asked Tiancheng Do they want to learn the cultivation method of the power of the star sea, do they want to leave Tiancheng and see a wider world. Even if a small number of people really don't want to, don't most people don't want to?"

Seeing Song Ao's hesitant expression, Jiang Heng said again, "In other words, this matter is not judged by whether we want to or not. Even if there is no Lu Cheng today, when the two worlds are connected, they will always Will get through, don't forget that there is still the Dragon Cave buried under Tiancheng, will the Dragon Clan let the Dragon Cave be buried there forever? All this will happen one day, even if I am some kind of stone in the legend, In the end, it is just a speck of dust in the rolling universe. Everything that should happen will happen. We try our best to let him develop in a good direction as much as possible. There are also many things that are not human It can be left or right."

After Jiang Heng finished speaking, he turned his head away, and saw Song Ao looking at him with a smile on his face, his brows and eyes were full of tenderness.

Jiang Heng's heart moved slightly, and he only asked, "What's wrong?"

Song Ao smiled and said, "Have you noticed that you talk more...Although it was good as before, but now you feel more like a person, and more..." He couldn't help but feel his heart beat .

Jiang Heng also smiled slightly, "It's just for you."

The two stood firmly in each other's eyes for a moment, enjoying the rare short-lived tenderness in the midst of busyness and pressure.

"You're right." After a while, Song Ao said, "Tiancheng is actually not very stable... It may be impossible to save Tiancheng, but as long as these people can stay, there is still hope for their future. Especially If we really want to establish a base, we will definitely lack a lot of manpower, and most importantly, we still lack a place to settle down."

"So we still have to find a way to go back to the empire as soon as possible." Jiang Heng concluded, "But we must also keep some people in Tiancheng, so that we can support them both inside and outside."

After some deep thinking, and after reading a lot of documents dug up from Tiancheng's underground library, Song Ao and Lu Fenghua finally decided to tell everyone about the "Gu".

After all, in the empire now, there are already Gu worms developed by Song Zhan. After two years, it is still unknown what scale he has grown to. If he is not clear about the situation after returning to the empire, it is very likely There will be problems.

After listening to Song Ao's narration, everyone was shocked by the news.

"This?!" Lin Youyou frowned deeply, "I have never heard of this matter, but judging from what you have discovered, I am afraid that before we entered this secret realm, there was already a large scale... "

"Yes." Song Ao nodded, "I also said before that once I return to the empire, I will soon break away from the Song family, and I will find a way to bring my sisters and brothers out. At that time... anyway, I still had some scruples. I didn't tell you all the situation, although we may not be allies on the same front in the future, but even if it is only based on our personal relationship, I hope you can be more careful and pay attention to it, so that nothing will happen at that time."

No matter who is responsible for such a big secret and family scandal, I am afraid that they will have to bear great psychological pressure.

It is obviously a great favor for Song Ao to tell everyone this, and it can also help them avoid some dangers as soon as possible after returning to the empire.

But from Kuang Yin's point of view, Song Ao's move was too killing two birds with one stone - it not only won people's hearts, but also explained the truth, especially pushing everyone directly to the opposite of the Song family.

Although it is possible that every family wants to gain a share of the current disintegrating empire, although the Wu family has a long-awaited plan, it can only be regarded as a conspirator. Not vicious.

But the Song family... is really disgusting!

"But you don't have to worry too much." Song Ao said, "Two years ago, we had already started to find a way to solve the Gu. Now combining the information in Tiancheng, it may be of great help. Besides, I guess I The reason why I can manipulate the shells of those star power cocoons is also because there are higher-level Gu worms in my body."

"You also have it in your body?!" Jiang Zijin took two steps back in fright, "Why, how did it come here?!"

Seeing his arms folded in front of his chest, looking like he was afraid that Song Ao would infect him with something, everyone couldn't help showing helpless smiles.

Song Ao naturally wouldn't tell about his long-term entanglement with Jiang Heng and the Nine-turn Ring Gu, he just said: "Song Zhan planted Gu insects on us in order to control the Song family. That's why I contradicted him."

"So that's how it is..." Bai Yu murmured, "It's no wonder that when I went to the Song family as a guest, Sister Song always entertained us in person, and she didn't entertain us at the Song residence. I thought it was her before... So it was because she The Song family is at risk. Sister Song is indeed the best!"

"Yes." Song Ao nodded, affirming her guess, "Besides, there is one more thing I want to discuss with you."

Seeing his serious tone, everyone put away their desire to discuss this Gu, and waited for Song Ao's next words.

"Yesterday, Bai Yu and I have already tried it. I can quickly attach those shells to the outer layer of the starship. That is to say, after debugging the starship, we will be ready for the first attempt in about three to five days. From Tiancheng to the empire. According to the information sent back by Kuangyin, the last explosion shocked many people in the empire, but now it has been calm for a while, and they have even started to inquire about the situation of the star power channel."

"And in the empire, the internal staff of Tiancheng are very vigilant. Although Lu Fanliang is closely monitored, he has no contact with anyone. Everyone is still in a state of immobility, which makes the current situation of the empire even more serious. Chaos. Although through Kuangyin, we have passed on the news to the family members of everyone present, persuading them to stay still as much as possible, but we are not sure whether our persuasion will be effective."

"So right now, I think we still need to return to the empire as soon as possible to be able to confirm some things. But, not to mention that many things in Tiancheng are only half done now, we know little about the star power channel, and we are not sure about its safety. Now I I want to ask everyone first, which of you must go back as soon as possible?"
