Volume 2 Chapter 124 The Tribulation of the Moon Silver
February 5, 2506. Fourth Domain, Heavy Karma, Alpha-2...... (Imaginary number positioning cannot).
"Leader, is there any? What is the name of the leader? ”
Gu Rongrong was puzzled for a while, and after thinking for a long time, he said, "I heard someone call him, Chief Qin. ”
"Qin Zhentian!"
"yes, it seems like the name."
There was a thunderbolt that exploded in Long Qicong's heart! The turbulent waves are not enough to describe the turmoil in Long Qi's heart from this moment. Subconsciously, Long Qicong grabbed Gu Rongrong's shoulder and asked.
"Are you sure? Say it again! ”
Gu Rongrong fell into a bit of panic, and said with some fear: "I'm sure, he must be called Qin Zhentian." ”
Bang.
The people of the Federation have not left the territory of the empire yet? In an instant, countless conjectures flashed through Long Qi's mind, and the more reasonable conjecture was that the Imperial people responded quickly after the fact. The strict blockade made it impossible for Qin Zhentian to escape smoothly.
Probably so.
"Then what are you hijacking a civilian ship now? Still involved with space pirates? ”
Long Qicong's tone was very unkind. Gu Rongrong was very frightened and said weakly.
"They're not pirates. They are those people. ”
"You...... What did you say? ”
Gu Rongrong thought that Long Qi had never heard clearly, so he repeated it.
"They are Qin Zhentian's subordinates, sent by Qin Zhentian."
Long Qi's eyes widened, turned to the dead body of the pirate who was still on the ground, and walked up quickly. How to tell if a person is an interstellar pirate can be difficult. However, it is too easy to tell whether a group of people is a regular army or not.
There are not too many methods, Long Qicong directly took off the shoes of the corpse, and took off the shoes of several people in a row, and has already come to a conclusion. All of them wore uniform socks.
Without a unified logistics, it is impossible for pirates to be equipped with a uniform standard of socks. To say that the caravan that had just been robbed was upside down. But these socks are not a civilian commodity at first glance.
It's really a pirate pretended by Qin Zhentian's people. I guess they didn't think about it themselves, socks would become horses' feet, right? Probably didn't expect that he would kill a Cheng Biting Jin halfway through, kill a lot of them, and then check their internal clothing.
"You say, they were sent by Qin Zhentian?"
"Yes."
"Then why do they listen to you?"
"This is what they asked, and what Bai Lao said, they also asked for."
It's a good trick to frame up, it's so boring......
Sent ...... In other words, there is a mission goal. Thinking of this, Long Qicong immediately ran to Gu Rongrong and asked urgently.
"What are they doing here?"
"I don't know, my job is to do the internal response." Gu Rongrong thought for a long time, and suddenly said, "Oh, I remembered, it seems that I want to grab some silver." ”
Silver?
Long Qi was puzzled for a moment. Although silver is also a precious metal, the Empire's interstellar currency is gold, and there is no silver in circulation. Moreover, it was useless for Qin Zhentian to ask for silver. On the other hand, Gu Rongrong actually said "what silver".
Well, naturally, it will not be silver in general. So what's it? Long Qicong fell into confusion.
Mithril? Mercury? ...... Silver!
Suddenly, a flash of light flashed in Long Qicong's mind.
"Moonsilver! Do you want moon silver? ”
Gu Rongrong nodded for a while, and said hurriedly: "Yes!" It's moon silver! ”
What is Moonsilver? Grandpa Long Yuantian had only talked to Long Qicong once, and it was a widely used alchemy material. In terms of performance, Moon Silver can absorb all kinds of new energy with ultra-high energy density, and it basically does not change itself.
Militarily, it is specifically used for military jump engines, controllable nuclear fusion reactors, and large-caliber naval guns. Roughly similar to a current regulator for electrical circuits?
Long Qi never knew very well, but he knew that the jump engines of the Imperial and Federation warships would basically be finished if they left this thing! Thinking of this, Long Qicong instantly figured out what Qin Zhentian wanted to do.
And all doubts were solved with the appearance of the term moon silver.
No matter how the Federation infiltrates the territory of the Empire, it must need a special jump engine. Long Qi has been living with his grandfather for eight years. No matter when the Federation begins to pursue, the time to infiltrate the territory of the empire will not be short.
Although the moon silver does not participate in any reaction, it is only part of the system. However, even the catalyst is poisoned, and the moon silver will be lost little by little with the use of high intensity.
However, the high cost of moon silver has broken through the hostages of ordinary people, and even the empire and the federation cannot squander it wantonly. Therefore, Qin Zhentian and the others, when they came out of the mission, the amount of moon silver stored must be a limited amount that can be predicted.
As long as it's limited, there will be a day when it runs out.
This Olympic-class civil ship, the Titanic, was formerly another warship. The jump engine of the warship, there must be moon silver! Long Qicong also understood the reason for shutting down the ship's jump engine at the jump fault and doing such an extremely dangerous thing.
It's not that I'm not afraid of death, but in order to get the moon silver, I have to shut down the jump engine!
After clearing his thoughts, a strong uneasiness suddenly shrouded Long Qicong's heart.
As if in response to this uneasiness, suddenly the entire four walls of the cockpit spread with countless mosaics...... A blue-gray mosaic with fine ashes wafting out. It was like a puff of green smoke, disappearing somewhere I don't know.
It was the last bit of residue left behind by the erosion of matter by the Void.
Damn it! Has it already begun to disintegrate?
The Titanic's order field had begun to crumble. This indicates that the jump engine has been destroyed, and its standby function cannot be turned off, and the order field has been shut down. The mass of the Titanic itself is too small to form a stable field of order.
Self-sustainment can't be done, and only death awaits this boat. And there was no trace of death, as if it had never existed. Nothing will be left but the memories of relatives and friends.
So, what's the use of bothering to frame the empire? There is not a single living mouth left, who is expected to accuse the Holy Empire? Qin Zhentian must have been on a long-term ocean voyage, and his head was already abnormal.
The erosion of the void was proceeding in an orderly manner, and Long Qi could even directly see the void environment from the top of his head. There is no concept of air pressure in the imaginary space, and the gas in the cabin will not gush out due to the hole.
Boom! Boom!
Outside there was a sudden sound of gunshots, and an old voice could be faintly heard, shouting: "You! I'm fighting with you! ”
Long Qicong was shocked, although he didn't know what was going on outside. However, now is no time to be leisurely and time-wasting.
