Chapter Twenty-Seven: Destiny Is on the Horizon
Baili Chongyang walked out of the parliament building with a few people, and bluntly said that he still had something to do, and said goodbye to everyone and left alone. Yu Qingyang took Long Xingyi and the others to the Earth Embassy in the aircraft again.
As a relatively new member of the Interstellar Alliance, the solar system's embassy is also at the end of the embassies of each galaxy, which is called the "urban-rural junction" according to Long Xingyi's idea, which is slightly remote.
Yu Qingyang arranged a room for everyone, and briefly introduced the characteristics of the comparable city.
"The next council is scheduled to convene in a week's time, during which time you can stay on the planet. We are located in a comparable city, and the structure is relatively simple. The city is separated by a green boulevard in the middle, and on the west side of the boulevard is the commercial area and the wealthy residential area, and many bar streets are also on the west side of the boulevard; On the east side, there are mainly government departments and civilian residential areas, and some dignitaries and our embassy are on the east side of the avenue. The structure of this city is as simple as that. β
Luo Bing's eyes lit up, and he quietly pulled Pei Xiling's sleeve, "We haven't been to the alien commercial street yet, so it's better to ...... Going for a visit? β
Pei Xiling looked up at the gradually fading night, and said hesitantly, "Isn't it okay?" It seems like it's getting late......"
"But the nightlife has just begun!" Yu Qingyang raised a finger and interjected very cleverly, and Luo Bing's little mouth gradually pursed back into an expectant smile.
"It's been a long time since I've been here, let's go! I'll take you there, and then I'll find a tavern and sit down, and you can go and walk around!" Long Haoqian also suggested at the right time, and hinted that he would never be this light bulb.
Yin Yuting looked at Long Xingyi and suggested, "You've been running all the way, are you tired?" Why don't you rest early and go out tomorrow? There's still a week to go anyway. Besides......" she suddenly lowered her voice, "that 'fate' thing hasn't happened yet, you have to be careful at all times." β
Long Xingyi smiled and said, "I want to go to the green boulevard and see the scenery of this alien." As for that...... What should come will always come. β
Yin Yuting shook her head, "I'll go take a shower, and then the two of us will go together!" More people, more security. β
Long Xingyi joked in a low voice: "Why are you like Shizuka in "Doraemon", you love bathing so much?" I'm not waiting for you! You rest early! If there is any danger, I don't want you to bear it with me. β
"Hey, hey, the little couple over there, please pay attention. What the hell are you going to do? Long Haoqian and the other three shouted not far away beyond them.
"More nonsense!" Yin Yuting raised a hand and made a gesture to hit them, then glared at them, and then turned back to Long Xingyi and said, "I don't understand your stalk, but didn't you say it all?" Some people ...... I can't do it without me. Speaking of this, Yin Yuting became lively again.
"Hah! I'm afraid that as soon as I wait for you to take a bath, I'll fall asleep in bed. In this way, I will come back after a walk, rest assured, I will call you if there is something. Long Xingyi explained, and then beckoned to Long Haoqian and the others, "Wait for me, I'll go with you to the green boulevard and go for a walk." Immediately, Chao Yin Yuting squeezed her eyes, and turned to walk towards the other people.
Yin Yuting shook her head, "Preschoolers, remember to find the police uncle if you have something!" With that, he went back to his room. Yu Qingyang looked at the few people who were far away, laughed twice and said, "Alas, the young man is really good! In his prime, he scolded Fang Xuan. β
Long Xingyi and others took a sightseeing bus and drove west from the eastern district of the city. Passing through the green boulevard, Long Xingyi got out of the car alone, said goodbye to the other three, and walked south along the wide avenue covered with exotic plants on both sides.
After going through so many things, Long Xingyi really enjoyed the tranquility at the moment, and when he looked up, there was no moon in the night sky, but only stars in the sky, and vehicles flying around. To his right is a brightly lit area, which is the commercial area of the West Side, a huge holographic projection light sign, recommending an anti-aging cream, an aging alien who looks like a pug, suddenly becomes a ...... Bull Terrier? Long Xingyi couldn't help but laugh out loud, it was better not to wipe it, he thought to himself.
He looked back at the government office area and ordinary houses on the left. The eastern side is quiet and peaceful, except for one or two dim street lamps on the platforms under each building. "Bats" with strange shapes of purple wings, occasionally flying from one building to another, hang upside down under the eaves to comb their wings. The dense vegetation on both sides of the boulevard blocks out the late-night noise for the east and the lifeless silence for the west.
"The view is nice, but I thought it was ...... Only someone like me, who has lived hundreds of years, would come and enjoy this quiet at this time. A familiar voice suddenly sounded behind Long Xingyi, and Long Xingyi turned his head sharply, and as expected, it was Cruze himself.
"Brigadier General Long Xingyi, do you also like to walk on this green boulevard?" Cruze stepped forward with a smile on his face.
Long Xingyi bowed his head slightly and saluted, "Speaker." Yes, I may be a far cry from you, but after this series of disasters, I feel that this tranquility is rare. β
CruzΓ©'s face like a blue-haired lion smiled again, and he turned his head to look at the West End, and sighed: "The more prosperous the city, the more pompous the hearts of the people." Impetuousness seems to be a common problem in every high-tech city, and few people enjoy this kind of tranquility. Of course......" he turned his head again, grimacing like a young man Long Xingyi's age, "There are very few people like me who have a lot of time to waste." β
Long Xingyi also smiled, and waited for him to walk up and walk side by side with him, "The lifespan of human beings, for you, is like a white horse. In your eyes, you must see everything very lightly! β
Cruze nodded, "That's right, compared to the longevity genes of our Mayan race, there are few races whose lifespan can match us. Many things, after hundreds of years of time, are no longer a problem. But, in the words of you humans, 'ants are still greedy for life', let alone intelligent higher beings? Therefore, we must still have a reverence for life and a reverence for every civilization. β
"Admire." Long Xingyi sighed.
"The civilizations on each planet are also strange, and I think you humans are worthy of admiration." Cruze exclaimed, "The overall intelligence of the human race is also the best in the whole universe, and the sturdy individuals among you can compete with natural warriors like the Turks. Speaking of this, he raised his eyebrows at Long Xingyi, and Long Xingyi also smiled.
"Of course, you also used your wisdom." Cruze continued: "I have also studied your martial arts, and I am very knowledgeable about wisdom. The defeat of the Tutu warriors by you is not only due to the efforts of the first two fighters, but also a manifestation of your own wisdom, you have seized the enemy's weakness and the opportunity to overcome the enemy. And I've heard that yours has done this miracle of 'survival in a desperate situation' more than once, which is why I fancy you. By chance, it may be luck, but looking at your resume, you can see that you are a human being who values love and righteousness, and is very intelligent. Long Xingyi listened silently as he walked.
"A human can be very witty, decisive, and powerful, but hundreds or thousands of human beings will be very slow, very blind, and easily flustered. I think that's what's holding back the planet β it's not united enough, and everyone is a little selfish. Cruze looked ahead and analyzed thoughtfully, "In my opinion, you are an outstanding representative of your planet, so I want to recruit you to join the ranks of interstellar agents, maybe following your example, the human beings on your planet can improve and progress faster, and at the same time, you can use your ability to help more people in need on the planet." What do you think? β
Long Xingyi thought for a while and said, "Speaker, your analysis is very reasonable, which makes me admire and worship you more and more. There is a great man on our earth who said: With great power comes great responsibility. If you think I'm really capable of being an interstellar agent, then I also have a responsibility to protect the people I deserve. It's just that...... I was originally a small policeman 180 years ago, and I always felt that I was born at the wrong time, and I just happened to travel to the present to show my strength, which may be what people call 'the times make heroes'! But along the way, I'm really used to having such a ...... around me Mentors and friends are by my side, so that I can feel at ease. Without her, I probably wouldn't have been able to do a lot of things, it has nothing to do with ability, it's feelings, it's confidence, it's belief. Her presence also makes me feel at peace. So I don't really know what I'd be without her. β
When Cruze heard this, he grimaced a strange face, "Okay! You think about what I said, and I think about what you said. Hopefully, the next time Parliament convenes, we will be able to reach a consensus and not bury your talents. With that, he turned and started walking in the opposite direction, "My car is parked over there, I should go back." By the way, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, the saying is good, which great man said? β
Long Xingyi smiled bitterly, made a grimace and said, "Spider-Man, a movie." β
Cruze raised his bushy eyebrows again and said as he walked, "Then I must take a look!" You continue on the road of 1 carat...... Oh, it's 200 meters from you humans, and there will be a bus to take you back to the embassy. Now......" he looked down at his PC, "I shouldn't miss the last train." β
"Okay, I should go back too." Crusser, who was far away, waved his hand, "Thank you!" It was a pleasure to chat with you, good night. Cruze raised his hand and waved, and walked away without looking back.
Long Xingyi continued to walk forward for a while as Cruze said, and just as a bus came, he asked if he was going to the embassy and sat down. He sat in the car thinking about Cruzer's words, thinking about his abilities and whether he could be qualified for the profession of interstellar agent. So what kind of status and significance does Yin Yuting have for him? What will it be like if I leave her? What if she left me? Long Xingyi thought about it, but he always felt that there was something he couldn't figure out.
Back at the Earth Embassy, Long Xingyi felt that there was something wrong, and he couldn't say what was wrong. He raised his hand and wanted to use his PC to call Yin Yuting, but unexpectedly found that his PC had no signal! In such a high-end city, there is no signal in the embassy? Long Xingyi also came to Guangta Star for the first time, so he was not familiar with it, so he had to knock on Yin Yuting's door again.
Unlike last time, this time there was no steaming beauty who opened the door for him, Long Xingyi stood at the door for a long time, and the recognition system on the door did not respond. At this time, Long Xingyi realized that the surroundings were terrifyingly quiet.
Is it so quiet in the embassy in normal times? Not a single older man? Long Xingyi thought to himself, this is not normal.
Go back to your room and see if there is a communication system in the room, and then try to contact someone else. Not really...... Just use the encrypted radio station to find that stranger again, it's definitely not right to go on like this! Thinking of this, he turned back to his room.
The biometric system recognized the homeowner. The door opens automatically. To Long Xingyi's surprise, the distance in front of him turned out to be a chest wearing armor. Long Xingyi subconsciously looked up at the owner in his chest, but he was so frightened that he almost screamed.
It was a lizard-like face covered with dense scales, yellow eyes, and pupils that stood in a line, staring at him deadly. In the pointed mouth, the tongue like a snake letter spits out from time to time, swaying up and down.
As soon as Long Xingyi was about to scream, the strange man in front of him stretched out a hand, stuck Long Xingyi's neck, threw him into the room with a slam of time, and then closed the door behind him and screwed the emergency latch. Now, people from outside can't easily get in. The strange man ripped the handle off the latch again, and this time the people in the door could not easily escape.
This is to fight to the death with me! Long Xingyi thought to himself. The fall just now was not light, causing a sweet mouth in his mouth, and a stream of blood spurted out of his mouth. He had just managed to stand up straight, but the strange man rushed in front of him, grabbed his neck again, and threw him to the ground vigorously.
This time, Long Xingyi was thrown to the ground, unlike the ring competition, this sneak attack, he was defenseless, and he was completely seized by the opponent. Long Xingyi thought in a trance that his mecha bracelet was still in the backpack on the wall, and he definitely didn't have the opportunity to wear it now.
Ring! Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration, remembering the ring fist gloves that Andre gave him at that time, which he wore on his hand at that time, and he hadn't taken it off for so many days. Because it is light to carry, I have not cared about it.
Just as the alien weirdo lifted Long Xingyi up again, Long Xingyi clenched his fists with both hands, activated the fist gloves through the nervous system, and a pair of hard metal fist gloves instantly wrapped Long Xingyi's hands. Long Xingyi was held in the air by the big lizard, and used the opponent's own strength to punch the opponent in the face.
With the power bonus of the gloves, this punch is not light. This sudden blow made the lizard can't help but let go of Long Xingyi in his hand, take two steps back, and readjust his state.
Long Xingyi was seriously injured at this time, how could he wait for him to recover and fight again? He remembered what Andrei had said that the gloves could fire small rockets, so he aimed at the door and fired a shot.
After a loud bang, the smoke billowed and the door was blown into a large hole. The lizard was stunned by this cannon again, and Long Xingyi quickly seized the opportunity, picked up the backpack on the wall, and snatched the door out of the hole.
The door was bombed, and the alarm sounded throughout the embassy, but not a single guard arrived. Could it be that the guards have all been eliminated by this killer? Long Xingyi thought to himself, at this time, his physical condition is not good, he must escape a distance first, if the other party chases after him, and then wait for the opportunity to counterattack! He thought as he staggered to the gate. As he ran, he glanced back to see that the big lizard was trying to crawl out of the hole, ready to come up and chase him.
Long Xingyi took off his fist gloves, took out the space mecha bracelet from his backpack, and put it on his hand. Run out of the building, come to the platform, quickly put on the space mecha, and use the mecha's own aircraft to take off.
As soon as he flew out, Long Xingyi heard the siren behind him. Looking back, a police car with flashing police lights in the distance was driving in his direction, and it turned out that the alarm system automatically notified the police station, and the police had quickly arrived.
Long Xingyi was about to turn around and go to the arms of the policeman's uncle, but found that the big lizard also ran out of the embassy building at this time, and was sandwiched between Long Xingyi and the police car. The big lizard didn't care about the siren behind him, and directly activated the spray system on the soles of his feet, and pounced on Long Xingyi.
It seemed that it was too late to find the police, so Long Xingyi's heart was crossed, and he flew forward directly. How about escaping from him first? Long Xingyi thought to himself. At this time, it was late at night, and there was not a single car in the night sky of the East District, and everything was silent, only sirens remained. It's unlikely that you'll want to ask someone for help.
As he continued to climb in height, the western area on the other side of the boulevard appeared in front of Long Xingyi's eyes. The West End is still brightly lit at this time, and it seems that their nightlife has lasted long enough.
Long Xingyi looked at the killer who was chasing after him not far below, and then flew towards the western district. The Lizard Killer also followed without hesitation.
While flying, Long Xingyi assessed his physical condition through the mecha system. There were some minor injuries to the internal organs, and one of the ribs was broken. No wonder I was short of breath and couldn't breathe. Long Xingyi thought to himself, this soul is too ruthless, it's really a dead hand! I didn't know the extent of my injury just now, and he didn't feel any pain, but when he thought of this, the torturous pain slowly hit, making him feel a torment every time he flew.
No, it's a quick fix! Long Xingyi glanced back at the killer who was chasing after him, and with a ruthless heart, he landed directly on the ground of a commercial street in the West District, quickly turned the platform, and unloaded the mecha. He then took out the camouflage collar that 24K gave him from his backpack and put it on his head.
Who is it disguised? The camouflage collar prompts him through the nervous system that it must be an image of a face that is present in his head. Who? Long Xingyi heard a heavy landing sound, and the killer was already close at hand.
As I said before, the more Long Xingyi was in a tense and critical situation, the more he could think calmly. His brain was spinning rapidly, and if he disguised himself as a human, he would still attract the attention of the killer. He looked up at the crowd in front of him, searching quickly.
Suddenly, he fixed his gaze on an alien with green skin and flower bones on his head. His face is very unique, but his limbs resemble those of a human. Just disguise yourself as him! Can you disguise yourself as an alien? Long Xingyi thought to himself.
At this point, the camouflage collar told him through the nervous system that the camouflage was successful. Long Xingyi touched his face curiously, and then touched his head upwards. Sure enough, on his head, there seemed to be a flower bone growing on it.
This is only a virtual model, it is recommended not to touch it too much so as not to affect the calibration. The camouflage collar prompted. Long Xing quickly lowered his hands and stood there as if nothing had happened.
At that moment, a large body passed by him. Long Xingyi glanced at it with his peripheral vision, it was the killer just now. Long Xingyi was nervous to the limit at the moment, the killer was by his side, but he had to stand in place as if nothing had happenedβthe pain in his ribs would make him walk up and twist, and he was afraid of exposing himself, so he had to stand in place.
The killer looked around left and right, fixed his eyes on Long Xingyi's face beside him, Long Xingyi licked his big face and smirked twice at the other party, he felt embarrassed. The killer glared at him viciously, then turned away in disdain.
At this time, in a tavern on the side of the road, Long Haoqian walked out. Looking at his relaxed expression and drunken steps, it seems that he is drunk. When the killer saw the human in front of him, his attention couldn't help but be attracted to him, and his expression became nervous.
Now is the time! Either you die or I die! Long Xingyi thought to himself, quickly activated his fist gloves, pounced with all his strength, and clasped the killer's thick neck.
The killer was pushed forward by this sudden momentum and staggered two steps forward, and then found that his neck was locked tightly, and he wanted to break free, but Long Xingyi's fists increased the strength of his hands, and he couldn't easily get rid of it.
Long Haoqian watched with interest from the side, "Hey! Aliens dare to fight in the city of Comparable Planets? Wait! After a while, the police came. β
"Why are you still stunned!" After Long Xingyi shouted this, he remembered that his current image was a big flower and bone head, and then shouted: "Camouflage collar, close!" β
Long Xingyi's own face was revealed, Long Haoqian was startled, and this time his wine was all gone.
"Great-grandfather...... Ah no, Brigadier General! What happened to you? Long Haoqian surrounded the two people who were entangled together, and he didn't know where to start.
"He's going to kill me! Come and help! Long Xingyi's ribs were getting more and more painful, and he was about to lose his strength.
"I ...... I didn't have a weapon! Long Haoqian patted his thigh and was anxious.
Long Xingyi exerted his strength again, tightened his hands that grabbed the killer's neck, and shouted as he was thrown around by the killer: "In my backpack, the mecha bracelet!" β
"Oh!" Long Haoqian didn't delay for a moment, hurriedly rushed up, tore open Long Xingyi's backpack, grabbed out two bracelets, and put them on his hands, stimulating the warrior mecha. Then he pounced again, tripping the killer's legs.
With Long Haoqian's help, the two finally gained the upper hand and pressed the killer under them. Long Xingyi used his fist gloves to press down on the killer's neck, and with the other hand, he activated a short laser dagger through the fist glove, forcing the killer's neck (this dagger is also a new function he had just discovered) and asked, "Say!" Who sent you? β
The sound of sirens was already in the spot, and several heavily armed police officers had already rounded the corner of the platform and walked over. Unexpectedly, the killer smiled sinisterly, and he didn't know what he had bitten in his mouth. In an instant, his entire face shriveled and withered, and quickly lost his life.
I'll go? Committed suicide by taking poison? Long Xingyi stood up, "Okay, I respect you as a man!" β
"What a man!" Long Haoqian also stood up and said behind him: "Chana people, there is no marriage on their planet, only breeding, males and females can mate at will, so every Chana star person doesn't know who their parents are, they have no worries, and they are the only choice for training killers." β
"Huh." Long Xingyi said jokingly: "Heaven on earth! Long Hao smiled dryly and said nothing.
"Who are you?" The police questioned them and interrupted their argument.
Long Haoqian unloaded his mecha and took out his ID from his pocket, "We are earthlings and guests of the Earth Embassy. We will return to the embassy and explain this to you slowly. Right? He asked Long Xingyi.
Long Xingyi's gaze was fixed on the corpse on the ground, and he couldn't help but say, "I hope so!" β
