Chapter 275: A Chance
The Aliens are a rare group of people in the Xinglan Empire, and all of them are guests of the imperial family, and their status is extraordinary.
Similar to the Federation, the Empire does not disclose the identity of the Adept, but it is basically clear to the upper classes.
As Wang Ying, he barely knew some news, which was not so mysterious to Chang Lian, who even came into contact with the supernatural when he was in the palace, but he didn't like them very much.
And the supernatural person in Wang Ying's mouth obviously belongs to the Federation.
"I see." Chang Lian said lightly: "You don't have to worry about this matter, just do whatever you have to do." β
Wang Ying hurriedly nodded yes, the imperial hierarchy is strict, even if he has doubts in his heart, he doesn't dare to ask, and the implication of the other party's words is that he won't care about them chasing the Federation warship, which is equivalent to acquiescence.
The Federation warship had been out for a short time, Wang Ying didn't dare to delay any longer, and chased after the imperial soldiers who had escaped from the explosion of the battleship just now, but Chang Lian did not follow them.
Carl also escaped luckily, looking at the silver mecha in space, his eyes flashed: "Is it General Chang Lian?" β
Wang Ying didn't answer, but said, "We must succeed in stopping the Federation warship, otherwise we will definitely be responsible for this loss." β
Twelve warships were all wiped out, and Carl couldn't help but have a headache when he thought of this.
Seeing Wang Ying and the others walking away, Chang Lian was not in a hurry to leave, and flew the mecha to the place where the fourth-level mecha exploded just now, but he didn't find any breath of a living person, and a trace of doubt flashed on his face, but he quickly reined in and took out a detector from the space.
A point of light flashed on the screen of the detector, and Chang Lian followed the direction to find it, and then saw a half-damaged federal terminal in the air.
After hesitating for a moment, Chang Lian put the federal terminal into the space, and then flew away in one direction.
Tang You and Lin Tian held their breath and hid in the dark, even when they saw Chang Lian walking away, they were not careless, and they drifted in space for a while before gradually revealing their figures.
And a thin layer of sweat was already oozing from Lin Tian's forehead.
He'd been overusing his abilities before, and now he's forced to use them, which doesn't feel good.
Seeing that Chang Lian really wouldn't come back, Tang You took out a mecha, and then took Lin Tian to chase after Wang Ying and the others.
However, looking at the bare-slippery wrists of the two, Tang You felt a little difficult.
Her terminal was destroyed when Chang Lian did it, and the one in Lin Tian's hand was thrown out by her personally, for fear that the other party would find out their traces, and this turned out to be the right thing.
But without the Federation Terminal, it may not be so easy for them to return to the Federation.
An hour later, Tang You relied on the detector to turn around and did not see the figures of the Federation warship and Wang Ying and the others, but there was still the smell of artillery fire around.
Tang You wasn't sure if the cadets had already escaped, but it should be a good thing that she didn't see the wreckage of the battleship, and the empire shouldn't take people away without her noticing.
To be on the safe side, Tang You stayed nearby for another day, during which Lin Tianhui's ability was not bad, and his abilities seemed to have increased a bit.
Never seeing the Federation warship, Tang You decided to go to a nearby planet to find out the news before deciding what to do.
Tang You has a map of the Federation's star chart, and it is three-dimensional, which is very easy to distinguish, and even the unmanned stars are marked on it.
After eating something casually, the two of them planned to go to the nearest planet from here first, Douban Planet, which is a very poor planet, so poor that not only the empire but also the federation are too lazy to fight for Cheng DΓΉ, so that the star maps of both parties have included this planet in their own territory, but few people will care.
Such a planet is relatively safe at the border, if pirates don't visit it.
And the reason why it is called Douban Planet is because the topographic image of the planet is two Douban together.
It takes about half a day to get from here to Douban Planet.
Tang You has been trying to use the communicator to contact Fang Weiwei and the others, but he has failed to know what happened.
Driving a mecha in space is a very boring thing, and it is also thanks to Tang You's crystal nucleus, so he doesn't have to worry about energy consumption.
Lin Tian had been sitting quietly next to Tang You, neither of them spoke, but the atmosphere did not look awkward.
Half a day later, the two of them could already see the shadow of Douban Planet, which was easy to identify.
Although Douban Planet is very poor, there is also a space station built a long time ago, which is probably the most luxurious place on the planet.
Because the gravity of the Douban planet is suitable for human habitation, Tang You couldn't rush into it directly, but fell into the space station.
As soon as the mecha landed, a man with small eyes greeted him, although he was wearing a uniform, it was neither federal nor imperial, but it was like a combination of the two, which was a bit nondescript.
"Come down, come down!"
The small-eyed man knocked on the mecha unceremoniously, although he didn't recognize the level of the mecha, but when he arrived at the Douban planet, he had to look at their eyes.
Lin Tian and Tang You jumped off the mecha In fact, in order to be less obvious, Tang You was just driving an ordinary first-level mecha, and it was still a manual mecha.
The man glanced at them obliquely: "You want to enter Douban?" β
Don nodded.
The man suddenly looked down at the wrists of the two, because it was hidden by the sleeves, so he couldn't see anything, so he stood and didn't speak.
Both the Federation and the Empire use private terminals, but the style of the terminals is different, and it is almost immediately recognizable.
Tang You saw the other party's eyes flickering, probably measuring their identity value, but it was not strange for people who did not wear terminals.
Because most of the pirates who run rampant in the stars do not have terminals.
Knowing that the other party wanted to trap them, some of Tang You's assets could no longer be used because of the damage to the terminal, and the rest was packed in the card, but it would not be impoverished.
"Do you want to pay for transportation? How much? β
Seeing Tang You so simply, the man laughed twice, glanced at their mecha and said, "Take this big guy, 10,000 credits." β
This really can't be darker anymore, you must know that the consumption level of this planet is very low, there may not be many people coming in a year, and the people on the planet can't get out, so there will be people living there, that is, pirates who are looking for a place to settle will sometimes come over, but most of them also dislike that this planet is too poor, and they are too lazy to rob it.
However, 10,000 credit points is nothing to Tang You, and she doesn't bother to care, it's just that her purpose is to inquire about the news, and it doesn't matter if she can't enter Douban Planet.
"I'll give you 20,000 credits and ask you about something."
"Oh?" The man's eyes flashed: "What's the matter?" β
"I heard that there was a battle between high-level warships around here a few days ago, is it true?"
"Hehe, if you want to ask about this...... the man held out five fingers, "I want this number." β
Tang Wei nodded, and just when the man ran into a big wrongdoer, he heard her say lightly: "Then I won't ask you." β
As he spoke, he walked over to the others on the space station.
The man immediately hurriedly followed: "Hey, you can discuss it again, 40,000...... How about 30,000, this is already a very fair price! Well, 20,000 is 20,000! β
Tang You paused, looked back at the other party: "Just give you a chance, don't let me know that you lie, just say it." β
The man suddenly looked at Tang You's eyes, and then nodded hurriedly: "It must be, I never lie." β
"Mister is asking about the pirates from yesterday?"
"Pirates?"
The man looked left and right, leaned closer, and lowered his voice: "It's the Hoshino Pirate Regiment, they robbed a caravan to the empire yesterday." β
"Nothing else?"
"Something else?" The small-eyed man was stunned for a moment, and then hesitated: "Is there anything else?" β
"Then where did you say the Hoshino Pirates moved?"
"It's about a few hours away from here, the border between the Empire and the Federation."
Tang You calculated, it was almost the same as the location of Fang Wei's battleship, and the news of Douban Planet was not very circulating, if it didn't work, he could go to the pirate group called Xingye and ask.
Seeing that Tang You didn't answer, the man spoke: "Is there anything else Mr. Xiao wants to ask?" This news is absolutely accurate, the Hoshino Pirates came here last night, but I heard them say it themselves. β
"Are you gone?"
"Huh? Mr. Little said Hoshino Pirates? They are still on our planet yet. β
Tang Wei nodded, and under the other party's bright eyes, he drew 20,000 credits.
Mecha Tang You did not tighten the space, compared to the huge mecha, the value of the space button is greater, and it is difficult to guarantee that it will not be remembered by those who care.
The two of them re-entered the mecha and entered the Douban planet along the space channel, and they could see the barren surface of the planet from a very high place, which was worse than the situation Tang You had seen in his previous life, but there were actually a lot of rare people.
When the two of them drove the mecha out of the space station, they attracted a lot of curious eyes from the surroundings, and Tang You thought about it and deposited the mecha in the space station, spending another 10,000 credits for this.
But when the two came out, they were inevitably looked at.
Although they have changed out of their military uniforms, the clothes of the two are a little out of place with the surroundings, but what is more eye-catching is their appearance.
Most of the Douban planets are one-story houses, one next to the other, and the two-story ones seem to be in slightly better condition, but they are in another area.
I have to say that the so-called poverty is really not just talking, maybe Lan Yuan and the others don't know that there is such a place in the interstellar world at all, and if they come to live for a while, they may be able to get rid of the habits of the eldest young master.
Tang You had asked the location of the Hoshino Pirate Group before, so he didn't turn around, and went directly to the only three-story building nearby. R1152
