49: Heart Nebula

"What do you mean? Did many people know your name before? Zhang Fan asked.

Old man Jiang didn't answer, still slumped on the sofa, his face still not very good.

For a moment, Zhang Fan seemed to see an old man in his old age, and the old man Jiang's somewhat dazed eyes seemed to hide a treasure trove full of stories.

This gave Zhang Fan an illusion that the old man in front of him was Jiang Tianquan, not Jiang Lao.

"Grandpa, are you alright?"

The little hibiscus next to him was a little worried about Old Man Jiang's state, walked to the back of the sofa, and obediently rubbed Old Man Jiang's shoulders.

"Girl, I'm fine, don't worry."

After picking up the cup and taking another sip of water, Old Man Jiang said to Zhang Fan:

"Don't leak even a little bit of today's incident, including this turtle, and don't mention it to anyone else."

"Hmm."

Zhang Fan nodded in agreement.

"Also, you said that you only opened one of the four hidden cells in the Tiger Prison Prison, why didn't you open the other three? Didn't find it? Old man Jiang asked.

"It's not that I didn't find it, it's that the tool used to open the cell is broken." Zhang Fan said.

"What tools?"

"It is an instrument that opens Euclidean wormholes......"

Zhang Fan said the operation of the man in black again, and Old Man Jiang said with some surprise:

"The people of the Flying Mask God Cult actually mastered the Euclidean wormhole? Can they use Euclidean wormholes to open up those hidden cells? ”

Zhang Fan said with some uncertainty:

"It should ...... Yes. ”

Old man Jiang said:

"If that's the case, then they're probably going to have opened the other three hiding cells by now, and it's probably going to be a big problem."

"What's wrong? What's the trouble? Zhang Fan asked.

Old man Jiang didn't answer, frowned and thought for a while, and asked:

"Boy, did you only see a man in black? No one else? ”

Zhang Fan nodded and said:

"Yes, there is only one man in black, and no one else."

Old man Jiang said suspiciously:

"That's not right, if you want to open those four hidden cells, the two bishops of the Flying Mask God Sect will have to come at least one, how can you only send one piece of garbage over? Are you sure that the man in black is from the Flying Mask God Cult? ”

Zhang Fan thought about the situation at that time, most of the people in black and the Flying Mask God Sect were also dressed in black, and that instrument was also used by the Flying Face God Sect, Zhang Fan preconceived of him as a member of the Flying Face God Sect.

"It should be, at least I think it's someone from the Flying Mask God Cult, but that guy scared me, I shook my hand and beat him to death, otherwise I could ask him." Zhang Fan said.

"I don't think so," said the old man Jiang.

"There must be something else behind this, boy, where is that instrument you got?"

"Also on the battleship, it's broken." Zhang Fan said.

"Take it and fix it."

"Repair? I also thought, but who should I go to fix this thing? Zhang Fan asked.

"Find Xu Zhen, if he can't help it, then he can only find the Flying Mask God Sect to get another one, you hurry up and repair it, and take me to the Tiger Prison again after repairing." Old man Jiang said.

"It's okay to repair, I'll do it right away, anyway, I'm going to go to the Dragon's Tooth Base, but it's just ......"

Seeing that Zhang Fan wanted to speak and stopped, Old Man Jiang hurriedly asked:

"But what, you have something to say."

"It's just that we didn't occupy the Tiger Prison Star, but after robbing the Tiger Prison Prison, we all withdrew from the Delta Galaxy." Zhang Fan said.

"All withdrawn? What's going on? Why not take down the Delta system? Old man Jiang asked.

Zhang Fan shook his head and said:

"I don't know why."

Old man Jiang thought for a while and said:

"It should be that the troops are not enough, some of the forces of the Zeta system will go to support the Betelgeuse 5 theater, and then divide the troops to occupy the Delta system, it is estimated that it will not be able to hold it, but it will weaken the defense of the Zeta system."

"And what are you going to do?" Zhang Fan asked.

"Look at the battle situation of Betelgeuse, you hurry up and repair the equipment, no matter what the situation of Betelgeuse is, we can go as early as possible." Old man Jiang said.

Zhang Fan thought for a while and asked:

"Old man Jiang, do you know what is being held in the other three cells?"

Old man Jiang looked at Zhang Fan, and said after a while:

"I don't know."

Zhang Fan was a little annoyed, Old Man Jiang clearly knew something, but he just refused to say it.

But there was no way, Old Man Jiang didn't say that he must have his reasons, and he couldn't force him, so he said:

"Okay, I'll go to Xu Zhen first and fix the instrument."

"Brother, I'll go too." Xiao Hibiscus hurriedly said.

Zhang Fan looked at Old Man Jiang, who didn't speak, just nodded.

"Old man Jiang, don't worry, this time I'm going to the Dragon Tooth Base, and it'll be fine." Zhang Fan said.

After that, the three of them talked for a while and talked about some things about the Kanda family, and Zhang Fan left with Xiao Hibiscus.

Back in their hut, the two brothers were fiddling with a strange machine, knocking and twisting.

"What are you doing here? What is this? Zhang Fan walked over and asked.

Seeing Zhang Fan coming back, the boss Zhao Yunpeng immediately greeted him with a smile, and when he saw that Zhang Fan was followed by a girl wearing a big windbreaker, he immediately put away his smile again, and said a little restrainedly:

"Brother Fan, you're back."

"Well, what are you two doing?"

Zhao Yunpeng pointed to the machine and said:

"Yuncheng and I want to build a submersible."

"What are you doing with submersibles? It's not expensive, if you want it, I'll buy two. Zhang Fan said with the heroic temperament of a nouveau riche.

Zhao Yunpeng waved his hand and said:

"That one was too slow underwater, and we wanted to build our own."

"Okay, you guys, let me see it." Zhang Fan said.

Then he introduced the little hibiscus to the two brothers, although the two brothers were older than the little hibiscus in terms of age, but Zhang Fan still asked the two of them to call the little hibiscus sister.

Hibiscus was also very interested in the two brothers, and it was not long before they talked happily and became acquainted with each other.

Hibiscus ripped off her trench coat and prepared to go with the brothers to get a submersible, but a pair of wings behind her shocked both brothers.

"Sister, what are you?"

"Sister, are these wings?"

"Sister, can you fly here?"

"Sister, what kind of material is this made of?"

"Sister, is there a lot of air resistance when you fly?"

"Sister, what is the pneumatic principle of this pair of wings?"

……

Even Zhang Fan was stunned when he heard a series of questions, daring to love these two brothers as little experts in casserole.

How did Hibiscus know the answers to the questions they asked? Spread your hands out, indicating that you don't know anything.

"Okay, okay, why do you have so many problems, do you still want to build a pair of wings like this?" Zhang Fan said.

Unexpectedly, his younger brother Zhao Yuncheng nodded vigorously and said:

"Well, my brother and I have long wanted to make wings like this, how nice it would be to be able to fly into the sky."

"You ...... Interested in this? Zhang Fan asked.

The brothers said in unison:

"Yes."

Zhang Fan thought for a while and said:

"That's right, after a while, after I take you to Sabre Star, I will find you a teacher to teach you how to transform the human body, okay?"

"Human body modification? Brother Fan, we still like to engage in mechanical things, those blood vessels and nerves in the human body, we are not interested. Zhao Yunpeng said.

Zhang Fan glared, and said as he walked upstairs:

"It's always interesting to change the human body into a machine."

"Yes."

went upstairs and walked into his room, Zhang Fan put the little turtle into a bucket, thought about it, and poured some water into it.

The little turtle lying in the bucket immediately stretched out its head and skewered around the bucket, as if Zhang Fan had poured boiling water on it.

"What's wrong? Don't like to soak in water? ”

Zhang Fan said as he took out the little turtle, then poured out the water and put the little turtle back in.

This time, the little turtle stopped making a fuss, and lay quietly on its stomach.

"It's weird."

Zhang Fan muttered to himself, turtles are afraid of water? What kind of turtle is this? Landlubbers have heard of it, but they haven't heard of it yet, are they just turtles?

"Little one, I'm going to go on a long trip, so I won't take you with me, do you want to eat something? I've got it for you. ”

The little turtle stretched out its little head, glanced at Zhang Fan, and retracted it again.

Zhang Fan shrugged, took a piece of ration and placed it next to the little turtle, and turned around and walked out of the room.

"Xiaopeng Xiaocheng, Xiao Hibiscus and I are going to go out, and the two of you are here waiting for us to come back, and then we will go to Saber Star together." Zhang Fan said.

"Okay, Brother Fan."

Zhang Fan took the little hibiscus, got on the Assassin, and went straight to the Star Gate.

……

IC1805 Heart Nebula.

Just like the name of this nebula, the location of this nebula is the power core of the Human Alliance.

This nebula spans nearly 200 light-years of space, and around it, tens of thousands of planets are gathered, and the dense star gates connect them tightly, like a super city across the sea of stars.

It is not only the center of human power, but also the center of human civilization, science and technology, and education.

At the same time, it is also the last bastion of human resistance to clones.

Compared to here, Zhang Fan's Saber Star, or Bibo Star, or even the M37 Star Cluster, can only be regarded as a remote area.

Zhang Fan and Hibiscus are going to a habitable planet located in the Heart Nebula: Dragon's Tooth.

The headquarters of the Dragon's Tooth Task Force is here, and it is also the place that countless human warriors yearn for, because this star represents not only strength, but also honor.

When he jumped out of the Dragon Tooth Star Gate, Zhang Fan contacted Xu Zhen, and it happened that Xu Zhen was also there, so Zhang Fan didn't have to make much effort to smoothly enter the airspace of the Dragon Tooth Star.

This is the first time Zhang Fan has come to this famous and mysterious planet, and he is inevitably a little excited in his heart.

Once upon a time, this was a place that he had never dreamed of, and now it actually came.

When the Dragon's Tooth Star came into view, Zhang Fan had the illusion of going to Earth, because it was too similar.
