The Flame Starship, the oldest flagship of the Terran Federation.

It has been roaming in the void outside the Taihe Star all the year round, and has never accepted any orders from the Federal Military Department, and even many high-ranking generals of the Federal Military Department and the Federation Councilors of the Helen Star Taihe Star have never heard of its existence.

At this time, the Flame Starship hovered in the starry sky far away from the Taihe Star and leaned towards the moon, bathed in its brilliant and scorching brilliance.

The heavy black metal protective outer armor on the upper part of the star boat slowly opened, leaving only a layer of transparent lens insulation layer, absorbing the light energy emitted by the Moon Yan Taiheng, and then filtering them into softer light, which was sprinkled in the ecological garden on the top of the star boat.

The ecological park inside the Xingzhou has collected all the earth-specific life forms that may exist in the Taihe Star and the Sea Lotus Star.

Except for those powerful and uncontrollable organisms, it can be said that it has it all.

Even among them, there are countless life forms, under this starry sky, unheard of, unheard.

They ushered in another morning, bathed in the rising sun in the sky.

The creatures who lived here in the era never doubted that the rising sun in the sky was actually just a thermal light source simulated by the Flame Star Boat using its huge energy system.

Only a few times, as at this time, shine on them that is the true radiance of Taiheng.

The entire ecological park is very huge, occupying one-third of the space of the entire Xingzhou, even larger than the Haitie City where Yun Xiaotian has lived since childhood.

The Flame Star Boat is naturally a real behemoth.

In the middle of the ecological park, there is a small mountain peak that rises slightly, overlooking the dense and lush primeval forest below.

At the very top of the mountain, there is a platform with several cabins.

Beside a small green tree half a man high, a young and beautiful man sat on a huge stump that had been cut off at the waist.

Even if it was cut off, the stump was still not dead, and a few emerald green branches pulled out from the edge of the slightly decaying stump, tenaciously continuing its ancient life.

The man sitting on the stump of the tree, although his eyes were closed, seemed to be connected to the entire starship, and his spirit sank into the vast virtual information network of the starship, browsing the information received by the starship, and the part he was interested in.

The entire ecological garden in the star boat is the back garden for him to rest.

Unless the starship is facing annihilation, no one in the starship dares to disturb the man on the stump at will.

He is the owner of the Flame Star Boat, the leader of the entire Terran Federation, the supreme commander of the Federation Military Department, and the grandfather of Ai Bingtai, General Liekong.

Ever since Ai Bingtai entered the virtual world of Wilderness Fighting, he has been accessing the backstage system of the Wilderness Fighting World through Xingzhou, silently following Ai Bingtai's encounter on Devil's Island.

He hadn't seen his granddaughter in a long time.

Even he can't do what he wants.

A few months ago, the Flame Star Boat carried him to the Star Capital, which was already an exception.

One is that he is angry, and the other is to deter the Zerg Queen who is about to move, showing his resolute attitude.

General Blazing Sky, who hasn't been seen for hundreds of years.

He and his star ship have been erratic, hidden in the star fields around the Taihe Star and the Sea Lotus Star.

In this starry sky under the light of the Moon Yan Taiheng, there are three intelligent races, the Terran, the Luo and the Zerg, competing for the resources and living space in the Moon Yan Taiheng Star Domain.

Among the three intelligent races, the Zerg is the strongest, followed by the Luo Race, and the Terran is the weakest.

As the owner of the Flame Star Boat, he can only deter the Luo Clan and the Zerg Clan from attacking in a hidden way, and he can barely protect the Taihe Star and the Sea Lotus Star.

As the flagship of the six oldest starships of the Federal Military Department, the Flame Starship has therefore appeared in everyone's sight at least.

But for all the old high-level and forces of the Terran Federation, no one dared to offend the owner of the Flame Star Boat.

Because, he is also the head of the federal military department, the commander of all the fighters.

In the Flame Star Boat, the non-commissioned officer who had always respected him like a god, no one would have thought that their commander was watching his granddaughter Ai Bingtai's experience in the wilderness fighting game with relish, and he would actually grit his teeth and hate a hairy boy named Yun Xiaotian.

As early as when he was in Xingdu, he had already looked at this little guy named Yun Xiaotian and was already very unpleasant.

Now it seems that his instincts are really good, this guy is really not a fuel-efficient lamp, and it looks like he really wants to hook up with his precious granddaughter.

Especially when his precious granddaughter put down the green devil in his hand and went to ask Yun Xiaotian for help, he smelled a very bad sign from it.

A sign that needs to be extinguished.

It's not that he really hates Yun Xiaotian in his heart.

Such a hairy boy with a milky smell has not yet attracted his attention, and he will not have the qualifications to make him hate.

In the entire Moon Yan Tai Star Domain, there are not many lifeforms with this qualification.

But because of Ai Bingtai's existence, he had to pay a little attention to him.

He was naturally one of the seven veterans of the Supreme Command of the Federal Military Department, so Director Xia Dan's request for the information security level applied for Yun Xiaotian was handed over to him as soon as possible.

Maybe without her "extra move", Yun Xiaotian would not have received their extra attention.

The Liekong General, who has experienced countless baptisms of wind and rain, has found many strange things from him, even he can't see them all.

This is very unusual.

Except for the initial group of people, anyone born from the Sea Lotus Star and the Taihe Star should be transparent to him, and it should never be so ambiguous, so that he has a feeling of being hidden in the fog.

In his most instinctive sense, although he didn't know exactly what was surrounding the boy, he didn't want the boy to get too close to his granddaughter.

Recently, the situation in the starry sky has been very chaotic, and the Zerg and Luo have been fighting in the starry sky, but in the end, they have destroyed many outposts and strongholds of the Terrans.

General Liekong, who has a keen sense of smell, faintly feels a sense of crisis that is about to come in the mountains.

couldn't help but remind him of what the Zerg Queen had intended to send elite troops to infiltrate the star capital to snatch the pendant he had given to his granddaughter?

That pendant with some symbolic legend really hides some secret that he doesn't know?

Or was all this just to confuse his sight and attention, and the Zerg would make even bigger moves later?

Duty, General Liekong had to put all his energy on the Zerg and the Luo Clan.

At this juncture, according to his original intention, he wanted Ai Bingtai to stay here all the time, and wait for the situation to stabilize before letting her out.

It's just that he's also struggling, is this really good for her?

Is it just to satisfy his selfish selfishness when a captive canary loses its freedom to fly?

Is it not to die to be considered alive?

He was also once a teenager full of vitality and longing for the outside world.

I have experienced countless lives and deaths, and I have seen too many lives disappear.

He understands it well.

To live, you should know what you are living for.

Only in this way will you not regret when you die.

Because they know what they are dying for.

It was in this way that he promised his granddaughter to let her stay in Xingdu and find the meaning of her life.

It's just that when I came to the pass, I smelled the smell of danger.

How could he not be worried about her?

After all, he only has one daughter, and she is the only granddaughter.

I can't care too much about it.

After watching Ai Bingtai's encounter in the Devil's Forest, his spirit withdrew from the virtual information network in the Flame Star Boat.

He was still sitting cross-legged on the stump at the top of the mountain, motionless, just like Fang Cai.

It's just that the light source at the highest point in the ecological park suddenly shot a pillar of light, covering the entire hill.

The mountain peak is too eye-catching, and the rest of the entire ecological park seems to be much darker in an instant.

I saw the platform on the top of the mountain, the verdant little tree emitting a soft green light, and it was pulled to the side of the stump that was also bathed in golden light.

General Liekong, who looked excessively young on the outside, sat cross-legged in it.

It exudes a more dazzling and brilliant light, like a god-man.

……

……

The moon flame is constantly burning, exuding dazzling brilliance all the time.

The starry sky that its light reaches is the star field of the moon and the sun.

All living beings here are blessed by her, bathed in her warm light, and grow and reproduce.

In the corner of the Moon Flame Taiheng, a pale gray transparent crystal barrier shrouded a blue-gray stone house.

Outside the stone house, there was a mysterious star array, which isolated the scorching and terrifying temperature of the Moon Flame Taiheng, as well as the harmful high-energy light and particle flow it emitted into the void.

Unlike the terrifying extreme heat outside the star array, inside the star array was a completely different world.

On the stone table and stone chair, a man in gray is playing against an old man with a blue complexion and gold scales on his head.

Next to the chess game, there is a verdant bamboo chair.

A girl in yellow, perhaps tired, curled up, lying on a bamboo chair, as if taking a nap, with crystal saliva in her mouth, I don't know if she dreamed of something delicious.

This chess game has been going on for months.

Often, within a few days, they make a move.

The gray-clothed man sitting cross-legged on the stone chair, and the old man opposite him, were not anxious at all, and their hearts were as calm as water.

Time, for them, is too cheap.

If Yun Xiaotian was here, he might recognize the man in gray.

He had seen in a dream that the man in gray had asked him many questions at the bar in the Heart of Styx.

Yun Xiaotian may have forgotten about this incident a long time ago, forgetting the man who had appeared in his dream out of thin air.

Human dreams are not easy to remember.

"Don't you seem clever at this step?" A black child in the hand of the gray-clothed man was put into the white circle, and the old man couldn't help but remind him loudly.

"Elder Yu Fei of the Starfish Clan, don't you still need to rely on this method to probe the truth of my move?"

The old man's mind was directly broken by the man in gray, and he was not angry, and replied lightly: "I'm an old bone now, you young people, you should let me order!" ”

The gray-clothed man was expressionless and replied, "We Terrans have a saying, called 'people become traitors when they are old', and I am not qualified to let you old foxes." ”

"When are you going to go? My small temple can no longer withstand any wind and waves, but it can't accommodate you, a great god. ”

Elder Yu Fei didn't look at the chess game on the stone table, but looked up at the blazing Moon Yan Taiheng outside the pale gray barrier, as if he was sighing something.

The man in gray asked; "Let me go, will you be at ease?"

"I'm even more upset that you're here."

Elder Yu Fei's tone did not contain half emotion, as if he was just stating a trivial matter.

"I think we can be friends ......."

"We Xingyu clan have no friends anymore, and we don't trust any friends anymore."

"We just want to stay in such a small corner and survive."

"Don't you even want to leave such a little living space to us Star Fish Clan?"

"If there is a god in the heavens, why doesn't he want to favor our poor starfish?!"

Elder Yu Fei seemed to have endless resentment in his heart, and he had been unwavering, and there was a slight tremor in his tired words, and there seemed to be unwillingness in his heart.

"You know, it's useless." The man in gray was unmoved, and still said lightly.

After Elder Yu Fei calmed down his slightly excited expression just now, he said indifferently with a slight irony: "Of course I know that His Highness Lan Yan, the prodigal son of the Star Sea, who was born in the Human Blood Temple, will not pity and sympathize with me, a bad old man, let alone have compassion for our Xingyu clan. ”

"Most of you prodigals in the sea of stars are already widowed, ruthless and unrighteous madmen."

"How could I talk to you about this stuff, it's so stupid!"

"It's stupid......!"

At Elder Yu Fei's ridicule, the man in gray was still as indifferent as usual, as if he hadn't heard anything at all.

Elder Yu Fei of the Starfish Clan continued to probe and said, "When you come to the star array I have laid out, are you really afraid that you won't be able to leave?" ”

"Don't be afraid."

"I've been to a place a thousand times more dangerous than yours."

Sitting across the stone table with black and white chess pieces, Elder Yu Fei and the man in gray stared at each other with their eyes, not to be outdone.

Elder Yu Fei asked again, "What are you here for?" ”

"Find someone."

The answer of the man in gray has not changed.

"Haven't you found it already?"

"Why don't you take them out of here?"

Elder Yu Fei looked like he wanted the gray-clothed man opposite him to leave early.

"There's no hurry."

"For the ant-like refugees here?"

"It's not."

The man in gray's answer was always two or two words, concise and powerful.

Elder Yu Fei, who was sitting opposite him, although he hoped that he could say more, was helpless about it.

"Also, they're not ants, they're warriors of the Terrans." The man in gray is a rare positive color.

Elder Yu Fei then asked, "Do you need my help?" ”

The man in gray was a little interested, and asked curiously, "Aren't you afraid of the Demon Blood Evil Alliance where the Zerg and Luo Clan are located?" ”

Elder Yu Fei was stunned and replied, "You just didn't say it, I can't afford to mess with them." ”

"Haven't you made up your mind yet?"

"It seems to me that you simply don't have a choice."

The gray-clothed man's dark pupils stared at Elder Yu Fei, who was slightly tired at this time, waiting for his answer.

"Playing chess...... Play chess......! ”

"I'm not in a hurry."

Elder Yu Fei of the Starfish Clan looked at the black and white chessboard in front of him, his expression focused, as if he was really thinking about what to do next.

"You're here for the heir of the Divine Tiger Martial King of the Taipoor Empire?" Elder Yu Fei, who was looking at the chessboard intently, did not look up, and suddenly asked out loud.

His little trick didn't work.

The man in gray replied, "Yes and no." ”

"Yes, yes, no, no."

Elder Yu Fei couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It's so tiring to talk to you." ”

"No comment."

From beginning to end, the man in gray sat upright on the blue-gray stone chair, without moving too much, and even his expression did not change.

"The Taipoor Empire is the richest empire among the three major empires of your human race, and the Divine Tiger Martial King has a high status."

"I know that in order to find his heir whose whereabouts are unknown, the Divine Tiger Warrior King has offered a sky-high price."

Staring at the chessboard, Elder Yu Fei asked softly, "You're not tempted?" ”

"You know?" The man in gray was slightly surprised and asked out loud.

"Of course I do."

"I already knew about it not long after they arrived."

"After all, this is our Xingyu clan, the last ancestral land, so naturally we must ensure that nothing goes wrong."

The slight shock in the gray-clothed man's heart calmed down instantly, and said, "Since you know, you shouldn't have any luck thoughts." ”

The old man sighed and said, "I just hope that this day will come later." ”

"It's a little later, it's a little bit."

"After all, our Xingyu clan can no longer withstand any wind and waves."

The old man was gentle and loving, looked at the sleeping girl in yellow on the side, and begged the man in gray: "If you have the opportunity in the future, as long as you are not too embarrassed, can you help me take care of her?" ”

Following the old man's gaze, the man in gray did not refuse, nor did he agree, and replied: "With you, no one can easily bully her." ”

"You're still too young, and you've seen too few lives and deaths."

"Everyone will die, it's just a matter of time, the old decay has already seen through it."

"If you don't come, I might be able to survive for a while."

"But now, it's different."

The tiredness in the old man's expression was not the expression that a creature of his level should have.

It can only be said that the burden on his shoulders is too heavy and crushes his body and mind.

"Yes."

"In the name of the Blood Temple, the temple priest Lan Yi swears."

The man in gray agreed to Elder Yu Fei's request.

For him, it's just a gesture.

He could agree.

The old man on the other side of the stone table, Elder Yu Fei's rare smile widened, as if a boulder had been removed from his heart.

"I believe in you."

……

……

Beyond the Star Array.

The brilliance of the moon flame never stopped for a moment, from near to far, swaying its light and heat.

It is the heart of this star field, and it is the source of all life forces here.

Looking up at the creatures of this Moon Yan Taiheng, they naturally can't imagine the scene above Taiheng.

All they can do is look up

Or perhaps, more fanatical worship.
