heavy fog

When Wen Luan came to his senses, he suspected that he had fallen into a garbage dump.

It's not that the place is dirty and smelly, but that there are a lot of things piled up in a mess around here. He is lying on a large wreckage of the flying saucer console. In front of him is an overturned European-style wooden cabinet with a half arm of a robot, a mechanical arm There are still electric sparks emitting blue light at the break.

He got up slowly without seeing Jim.

Wen Luan tried to call Bier in the spiritual connection, and got a response quickly.

"This is the Beluga Galaxy, the temporary warehouse of the interstellar pirate organization named 'Blood Skull'. Jim followed other pirates to rob. You are safe for the time being, master."

"Where are you?" Wen Luan asked silently in his heart.

"In this warehouse, Jim and a group of pirates tried to find an operation link on me just now. I pretended to be damaged by the strong shock of the space jump and smoked, so they lost me. There is a monitoring device above my head, which is inconvenient to move. " Shier said calmly, "Master, the exit is 700 meters ahead of you on the left, and I'm right there."

Wen Luan walked a few steps according to Shier's instructions, and found that it was difficult to walk here, there was no space under his feet, imagine the feeling of climbing a mountain in a warehouse.

There were many shiny tubes, bottles, or metal components, and most of them were iron boxes. Wen Luan didn't dare to step on them, because he saw a piebald python coiled in a transparent box on one side.

Just as Wen Luan was "climbing the mountain" tremblingly, he suddenly heard a burst of malicious ridicule.

He looked up and found that the two robots standing against the wall had manipulators inside. They stepped on them without fear, crushing many things, and some broken parts directly made rumbling explosions.

The box containing the boa constrictor was also broken, and the boa constrictor jumped up angrily, but its body was firmly pinched by a robot's metal palm. When the big hand closed, dark red blood spurted wildly instantly, and the minced meat spilled all over the place. Everywhere.

The snake's head was maliciously thrown at Wen Luan.

A head as big as a bucket rushed towards him, Wen Luan immediately took a step back, jumped onto the wooden cabinet, the snake's head hit the corner of the cabinet, and went down with one bite, half of the cabinet was stuffed into the python's mouth.

Fortunately, this European-style wooden cabinet was of inferior quality, with only a layer of veneer pasted on the surface, and the inside was still a hard future synthetic material. A fang of a boa constrictor was stuck in the cabinet, and its head slowly drooped.

The two pirates manipulating the robot in the distance were surprised that Wen Luan escaped the attack. The robot's visor opened, revealing their ashen complexion and hideous ugly face.

They spoke words that Wen Luan couldn't understand, and even propped up their upper body from inside the cockpit, showing Wen Luan their raised chest muscles and thick arms.

"..."

Wen Luan's eyes froze, thinking silently, he finally saw the real version of the so-called arms that can run a horse and fists that can stand on a person. As for the sturdy chest muscles, uh, the girls who went to participate in the national elections did not have such a big size.

Monster!How can you meet people when you grow up like this?

Wen Luan looked at each other sympathetically.

There was a language barrier, but the eyes had no international language. Wen Luan's obviously contemptuous and pitiful eyes annoyed the two of them. Just as they roared and rushed forward, a strong force behind them pushed them away with their mechas, and they staggered. Lie down to the sides.

Wen Luan's pupils contracted, he wanted to take back his preface, the one who appeared now was the "monster"!

An octopus-shaped creature wearing a transparent space suit, very similar to the illustrations in early science fiction novels. On the bald forehead, two big eyes looked at Wen Luan, and then slid the tentacles wearing the space suit, dexterously over The warehouse moved over.

Just when Wen Luan was about to jump out of the cabinet and escape, the octopus said:

"Hello."

Standard English.

Wen Luan almost fell off the cabinet.

"Welcome, I've always expected a companion who is smart and flexible." The octopus used its tentacles to push away the snake's head in front of it and Wen Luan, and then the body in the space suit suddenly changed color into orange red. It was very considerate of Wen Luan being hurt. Scared, kept a distance of about...well, three meters.

The octopus gestured to the robot that got up from the ground not far away with its tentacles, and said contemptuously: "The guy who is rude, stupid, and whose brain is occupied by muscles is really an eyesore. Oh, dear, look at your slender arms and limbs... …I have to say, if you had a bigger head, like mine, I would really appreciate you."

"..."

Wen Luan's eyes darkened.

God, is this a nightmare?

Wen Luan shook for a while, and before he could call out to Seir, he felt his body lighten up, followed by a hot bath, his whole body was so warm and comfortable that he almost groaned.

"Slap." The octopus' tentacles fell on the shattering element with blue arcs flashing, causing it to tremble slightly with electricity.

The snow wolf fur wrapped around Wen Luan's body was gone.

The two robots in the distance just climbed crookedly, and did not see the scene of Wen Luan's sudden recklessness, only the octopus pirate silently picked up a piece of something like a plastic sheet from the ground with his tentacles and handed it to Wen Luan.

"My clothes... Oh, my God!" Wen Luan opened his eyes, pulled the plastic sheet to cover his body in horror, and asked angrily, "Where are my clothes? What's going on... ...Ah, thank you."

"you are welcome."

Wen Luan froze and raised his eyes inch by inch, only then did he realize who it was who kindly handed over the plastic sheet.

The octopus pirate continued to be orange-red all over his body, and shook his tentacles at him, comforting him in standard English: "I am not of the same race as you, so your behavior just now is not disrespectful to me, just like my It's like running in front of you with no clothes on, and you won't mind."

——That's right, Wen Luan cares more about an octopus in a spacesuit than an ordinary four-meter-long octopus.

"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is..." The octopus pirate made a sound like spitting bubbles, and then switched to English, "Of course, you can call me by my human name, Caesar. I heard this is A famous conqueror of mankind, the king! Hello, it is a pleasure to meet you."

Wen Luan was a little petrified.

Howdoyoudo God, an octopus told him that this phrase is said to be used only by international students who have just arrived in the United States, but in fact, it is a greeting that no one uses in daily life?This octopus is the textbook English party, right?

"Wen Luan."

Wen Luan dazedly imitated, switching from Chinese to everyday language: "You can call me 'Wen', I...know you very well."

No no, he wasn't happy at all.

"Is your clothes a special mech? Why did it disappear in an instant?" the octopus named Caesar curiously held his head with its tentacles and rolled his eyes.

How could Wen Luan know, he was still confused.

Just at this time, there was a noise from the warehouse door, many pirates wearing spacesuits or manipulating small mechas, throwing messy things in.

"Oh! These rude guys!" The octopus growled, its eight tentacles swung into windmills, and it arrived at the warehouse door in the blink of an eye. It knocked three pirates away and shouted loudly, "Are there any rules? Put them in order for me!"

"Good evening—hell, is it night? Let me check my watch." Another strange-looking man appeared at the warehouse door, because the guy was dressed like a 19th-century American movie, black trench coat and black cloak, black A top hat, a long civilized stick, and a decent-looking gold pocket watch for a look.

In Wen Luan's mind, a word immediately popped up - lost population.

"It's a harvest night, unfortunately there are no rare items." The gentleman spread his hands, holding a civilized stick, and walked over shaking his arms.The messy things on the ground had no effect on him, and he seemed to be able to walk normally on the sharp corners of the box.

Bald-headed Jim also appeared, and ran after the gentleman. Jim smiled and patted Wen Luan on the shoulder: "Wen, this is our boss, the leader of the four interstellar pirates in the Moby Dick galaxy, Master Setra." Jim said to Wen Luan blinked, and said something meaningful. "Same as us, same! You know!"

Really lost population?

The staff of the Deep Blue Star Household Registration Office deceived him!Why are so many lost people still hanging around here without going back?

The pirate leader took off his top hat, turned his head slightly, and saluted very gentlemanly.

To be fair, the guy is not bad looking, but—

Wen Luan didn't think it was as good-looking as Seer, let alone that...beauty he saw by chance on the ice field...

"Return the courtesy, my friend, this guy is from aristocratic background, he's a bit wordy, you have to bear with it." Seeing Wen Luan in a daze, Jim immediately reminded him in a low voice.

The corners of Wen Luan's mouth twitched, because Jim had a rough voice, and the result of whispering in a low voice was really tragic, unless he was deaf, or he couldn't hear him standing ten meters away.

The pirate leader put on his top hat again, smiled and said, "Welcome, Jim has already introduced you to me. Actually, I am not an aristocrat, oh, I have such a title, but I am more interested in doing business. I am a farmer in southern America. Garden... I have also been to your hometown, the mysterious oriental country!"

Wen Luan didn't relax his vigilance, not to mention he knew that Jim had something to hide from him.

"What do you need me to do for you?" Wen Luan didn't believe it, there was a trap in the sky, the head boss would greet him kindly as soon as he joined the pirate organization.

The pirate leader waved his civilized stick and said with ease, "No, no, it's not as serious as you think. The Chinese say 'I am a stranger in a foreign land' (Chinese), lonely, wandering, and..."

Jim stared hard: "Okay, don't act too much!"

"Hey, that's it. I feel kind when I see people who have experienced the same situation. Except for the Deep Blue Kingdom, which treats the lost population generously, other countries in the Beluga Galaxy are not like this. Now that I finally have such a small force, I will of course be happy to take you in."

The leader of the four interstellar pirates is called a small force?

Before Wen Luan had time to say anything, the other party pointed at the octopus pirate with a civilized stick and said, "This is Caesar, my warehouse supervisor. He needs an assistant. I think you will get along well! Then don't bother me, I wish you a new life." joy!"

After the pirate leader finished speaking, he took off his hat again, bent down to salute, and then left on his own.

Wen Luan looked at the octopus with a black thread, is this a future colleague?Well, it does meet the job requirements of not needing to rob, can learn something temporarily, and has no barriers to communication, but——

"It's also the lost of the earth... the lost seafood mouth?" Wen Luan turned to ask Jim.

"Oh, please use 'he', Caesar is an intelligent species! He can speak more than 300 languages ​​and is very knowledgeable." Jim added, "He is a native species of the Beluga galaxy, which has civilization before human beings."

Wen Luan nodded numbly.

"Ah, by the way, Caesar's mood is expressed by color, orange red—my friend, he is very satisfied with your new colleague! Have a good day, goodbye!"

After Jim finished speaking, he quickly caught up with the pirate leader, and the two whispered in a language Wen Luan couldn't understand.

"Damn it, he just ate, do you understand?" The pirate leader said angrily, "Eastern devils specialize in eating dreams! You actually ignored the clothes he was wearing. Deep Blue Star has no ice fields, no snow wolves, that's all fake, It's the exile's nightmare of death! The snow wolf fur worn by Wen Luan...is actually the food he brought out unconsciously! Didn't you notice it?"

Jim innocently expressed how he could have thought of it: "I don't know that he can maintain the form of false objects brought out of the dream after he escapes from the dream."

"Obviously, that's the food reserve he carried unconsciously!"

The pirate leader stopped suddenly, gave the octopus pirates who were busy in the distance a smile of approval, and then said in a low voice, "Thanks to Caesar, otherwise when would Wen Luan swallow his food reserves? Our goal is to make Wen Luan Without food, hunger will make him sleep again soon! Deep Blue Star is safe!"

"Okay, I'll try my best!" Jim waved his arms and ordered loudly, "Whoever dares to sleep near the warehouse in the future will be executed! If you hear me, execute him!!"

In the chaos, the silver metal ball lying in the garbage dump moved slightly, and Seir quickly analyzed the conversation between Jim and the pirate leader.

——It turns out that Wen Luan can eat dreams.

This is even more miraculous than Luz being a succubus!

——It is confirmed that the deep blue star is not real, it is a huge dream.

But why is Jim's goal to protect the Deep Blue Star?They are interstellar pirates, why should they protect the Deep Blue Kingdom?Is there an unspeakable deal with the kingdom?

"This amount of information is really too much." Xier said to himself.
