Chapter XXIII

It was night, just as Lake was about to rest, Kirby's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said to Lake, "Lake, when I was spying on guys just now, I found something very interesting, do you want to listen to it?"

"Oh?" Ryker couldn't help but feel a little interested after listening to Kirby's words, "Send it out and listen to it." ”

As Lake's words fell, a voice played out from the stereo in Lake's room, although he understood that this was the lingua franca of the universe, but the pronunciation was very obscure, which made Lake embarrassed and grabbed Kirby flying beside him, and complained: "Don't you know to translate first?"

"Eh, Ryker, don't you know the lingua franca of the universe?" asked Ryker as he asked for Kirby. Obviously, Kirby, who is a robot, has no way of understanding the effect of such an accent on the person listening.

Faced with Kirby's rhetorical question, Lake instantly pressed Kirby onto the quilt without saying a word, and said to Kirby, who was complaining that he couldn't see anything: "If you want you to translate, what else do you ink!"

"I, I know!" Feeling the power of pressing his head loosen, Kirby hurriedly flew up again, and translated with grievances, "We are Van Dun people, and we will land at the designated coordinates in six hours according to the time of your planet." ”

After listening to Kirby's translation, Lake's mind instantly came to the report about the food crisis on Van Don that he had read not long ago.

What are those people who can eat the Vanton star to the point of destruction coming to Earth? Invade Earth? They don't seem to have any other ability than to eat them? Do they want to eat up the Earth?

Thinking of this, Lake almost laughed out loud, and said to Kirby, "Can you find the location of the Vanton Starman?"

"Of course, the Vanton didn't seem to want to hide their intentions, so ......" Kirby's eyes lit up as he spoke, and a flat map of the Earth instantly appeared in front of Lake's eyes, and a red dot flashed in the position of Japan, "They are here outside the atmosphere, probably waiting for a response from the Earth." ”

"I see," Lake said with a nodding to Kirby, "Kirby, get the boat over." ”

"Huh?" Kabi looked at Lake in confusion, a little confused as to why Lake was doing this.

After getting along for a long time, how could Lake not know what Kirby's doubts were, so he explained: "We are still in a state of energy shortage!"

Neither the Shattered Star Stone nor the Solar Flare Stone can be easily used now, and if you have found a spaceport on Earth, then getting a little energy from someone else's spaceship is definitely the best choice.

"I see! Course correction, hull offset, horizontal angle correction, destination confirmation completed, main engine, start!" replied Kirby. Immediately, Lake felt a slight vibration......

Under the condition of ensuring that it will not be discovered by the earthlings, the Hao Kuai sailing ship came to the coordinate point where the Van Dun Star Man spaceship is located after a period of sailing, but now that the energy is in short supply, the Hao Kuai Sailing has no way to break out of the atmosphere.

Since the robbery was no longer possible, Lake had no choice but to ask Kirby to establish communication with the Vanton to see if there was another way to get energy.

As soon as the picture was connected, a Vanton star with a big mouth, a pair of tentacle-like eyes, and a blessed face appeared in Lake's sight.

"Are you a cosmic pirate, Lexios?" looked at the image of Ryker and the mechanical parrot Kirby on Ryker's shoulder, who seemed to be the captain of the ship, and couldn't help but ask in his cosmic lingua franca with a very strong local accent. He had only seen Lake's portrait on the wanted warrant of the Shogunate of the Universe, and had not seen Ryker's real person, so he would bring a hint of uncertainty when he asked.

"If there isn't another cosmic pirate named Reknios, then it would be me. Lake replied in a joking tone in the lingua franca of the universe, indirectly acknowledging his identity.

"So, Reykneos, what are you looking for us Vantons? We don't have any treasure in Vanton that can be remembered by cosmic pirates like you. After listening to Lake's words, the Vanton asked with some puzzlement. As we all know, most of Van Ton's finances have been used to buy food to deal with the food crisis that has occurred this time, so there should be no reason for a sea thief like Lake to keep an eye on him.

Lake's long, awkward words didn't make Lake understand what it meant at first, but fortunately, Kirby immediately began to translate on Lake's shoulder.

"I want to buy some energy. After listening to Kirby's translation, Lake spoke up his thoughts.

"There's no problem with this," for the Van Dun people who are short of food, food is the most important thing now, and if you can have more money, you will have more security, so she immediately responded to Lake. However, as soon as the words fell, he remembered something again, and hurriedly added, "But because there is a problem with our spacecraft, there is no way to enter the earth's atmosphere." ”

After Kirby translated the words of the Vanton star, Lake's brow couldn't help but lock a little. There is no way to go up on his side because of the lack of energy, and there is no way to get down on the Vanton side because of the failure of the spaceship.

"We'll be on this planet for about four hours, and we'll be sending people to the ground in about four hours, so how about we be able to trade on this planet at that time?" Seeing the change in the expression on Ryker's face, the Vanton took the initiative to make a suggestion. However, at the same time, the Vanton Star also made a witty choice to hide the true purpose of the dispatch, after all, the object to be traded is the cosmic pirate, in case the crumb 929 is snatched by Lake, it will be bad.

"Four hours?" After glancing at the time displayed in the window that popped up on the screen, Lake nodded and said to the Vanton, "Then let's talk about the specific conditions, how much energy you can provide." ”

"Up to three cans of energy concentrate. After thinking for a moment, the Vanton said, after all, there is no space port in the solar system, so they must also retain enough energy to the next space port. "And how much can you pay in exchange?"

"Fifty thousand universal coins!" Lake said without thinking about it.

"Yes, then it's a pleasure to work together. After listening to Lake's offer, the Van Dun nodded in agreement.

"It was a pleasure to work with. With that, Lake cut off communication with the Vanton people.

"Ryker, are you crazy? A jar of energy concentrate is only 10,000 coins. You actually spent 50,000 yuan on three cans!" The communication was cut off, and Kirby couldn't help but teach the loser Lake a lesson, but before he finished speaking, he was pressed on the head by Lake with one hand and dragged to Lake's side.

"When have I ever suffered? With that, Lake tossed Kirby and walked towards his room......
