Chapter 21: The Purpose of the Sphere

Seeing that Mu Xun was still acquainted, it turned back into a sphere, as he did when he first appeared in front of Mu Xun, comforting them with amiable words, "You don't have to be afraid, I don't want to kill." ”

Mu Xun, who was sitting on the ground, nodded his head with the other two squatting dogs, the word killing suddenly reminded them of the words that killed Li Bin just now, and the shape and tone of the sphere were constantly changing, and they couldn't help but be suddenly a little frightened. Moreover, judging from Yu Xi's performance, the appearance of the sphere today is definitely something it has never seen before! And the funny thing is that this semi-circular ball just warned them that 'there must be demons when things are impermanent'.

Looking at the frightened faces of Mu Xun and the two dogs, the sphere clearly knew that they were definitely afraid of themselves, but this was definitely going to change! After all, he still needs these three little ones to help him do something he can't do on his own!

It seems that the strength of the performance just now has been a bit excessive. But since everything had happened, the sphere began to think about how to make the fear of these little guys disappear, and Mu Xun and they did not dare to speak at this time, and the huge hall began to be extremely oppressively silent.

In the midst of the sound of a falling pin, the sphere suddenly spoke, "Shall I tell you my story?" "This is how the spheres come out to solve the estrangement and ease the atmosphere!

The three of Mu Xun first reflexively exclaimed: "Huh? Then they immediately realized that the sphere just said that it was going to tell a story, and nothing terrible happened, so they quickly nodded and said, "Okay, okay!" ”

Ignoring their reactions, the sphere began to tell his story directly, "My race is not the first to rise to the creation of galactic civilizations, and it is far from yours, almost evolving into galactic civilizations in thousands of years. He turned into an arrow and pointed at Xiaobai and said, and then pointed at Mu Xun. Not to mention the humans, who have made their language almost the official lingua franca of galactic civilizations, with races in all known star fields. ”

After a pause, the orb continued, "Of course, it's not because my race isn't smart enough, it's because our race isn't naturally interested in technology!" We can roam the sky at will, we can transform into anything we want, and our stream of consciousness is the strongest in the entire universe! Even the creatures of galactic civilizations have not evolved the ability to survive in space for long periods of time. For us, it's just an innate basic ability! ”

After the sphere said proudly, he said with a slight mockery: "But our race has a fatal 'shortcoming', that is, the lifespan is endless!" It also means that we are infertile. As you can see, my race is a round translucent sphere, and the only way we reproduce is our own split, and after each split, all autonomous memories will disappear, but it is also possible to become two slightly smaller translucent spheres, or the split will fail to the point where the body completely bursts apart. As a result, our race was sometimes outnumbered, sometimes small, and several times almost extinct...... Hahaha! ”

Although the smiling orb saw that Mu Xun did not smile, the horror on his face did begin to slowly disappear, so he recounted with great satisfaction: "And my courage is notoriously small, since I was divided, I have not been divided. In my long life, I became the oldest race on my home planet! About tens of millions of years ago, I finally got tired of staying in my home planet, so I started to travel around the galaxies, and then I started to travel to the farther galaxies, and then I traveled galaxy by galaxy, and finally I ended up here! ”

"Why didn't you react?" The orb thinks there should be an exclamation at this moment, right?

"Well, I'd like to ask a question." It was Xiaobai who spoke with emotional intelligence and IQ that were not at the same level.

The sphere said with some surprise, "Ask?" ”

"Tens of millions of years ago, it seems that most creatures first began to think of stepping into galactic civilization, and that was when your race was at its finest. But why don't you just rule the universe? "Xiaobai's question is a bit silly. But in fact, if this is really the case, why not take the opportunity to rule the entire universe?

"Because the universe is endless, we simply cannot rule it. What's more, the breeding ability of our race is low, and if we participate in the power struggle, we will inevitably be sacrificed, which will lead to fewer areas under our jurisdiction, and other regional galactic civilizations will attack our area for more resources, and our already few races will continue to decrease, so that there will be fewer areas effectively governed, which is simply a vicious circle! "The translucent sphere explanation is plausible and convincing. But what he didn't say was that because the two problems of reproduction and long life could not always stay in the same place, their race had long been yearning for freedom and preferring peace from the beginning.

Seeing that the transparent sphere was no longer so weird, Mu Xun finally dared to ask a question that made him more and more uneasy: "Why are you telling us so much?" ”

The sphere was stunned for a moment, and then said heartily: "Because I have something to entrust to you!" ”

"You're so weird...... Well, how can we accomplish a task that cannot be accomplished by magic and great ability? "Mu Xun is very aware of the gap between himself and the sphere.

"It's not like you need to do it now!" "Don't forget, my life is endless, and I have plenty of time to wait. ”

Mu Xun now knew what the sphere meant, he was making a small investment in himself, so he was no longer so nervous, and asked again, "Then what is the task?" ”

"I need the crystals in the stomach of the starry sky beast, and I don't care how you got it! And if you're done, you'll just have to do one more news show at Jupiter, and I'll be here for the next 4,000 years. The translucent sphere said with a smile.

Mu Xun began to think about it, and his brows couldn't help but wrinkle more and more, "The starry sky giant beast said that I recognized it when I saw it, but what does the crystallization look like?" What's more, how can I get what you can't get? In fact, you don't have to wait for 4,000 years, because my lifespan and Xiaobai and Yuxi's lifespan can't reach 4,000 years. ”

"Crystallize him like a starry sky beast, you know it when you see it." Once the sphere is explained, it automatically ignores all other problems.

Now that he knew the answer to the main question, Mu Xun didn't dwell on it, but said, "But this exchange doesn't seem to be equal!" ”

"I don't plan on you to complete this task, I just hope that if you get the chance, remember to get the crystallization of the starry sky beast!" The orb paused, then continued, "And I'll have a few little things for you later!" ”

"And what if I don't get a chance in the future?"

"It's okay!"

"Since you have said so, I will not give up if I have the opportunity!"

"Thank you in advance."

The semicircular sphere's series of answers made Mu Xun a little surprised, and he couldn't help but feel that the ruthless and endless life is good, you can invest at will, you can wait for someone else's life, but you don't have any expectations for the result!

However, what Mu Xun didn't know was that this translucent sphere didn't tell him the truth, because the sphere was in the wanted video of Zhongjupiter Station provided by Yu Xi when he wanted to rescue Xiaobai, and after seeing him for the first time, the sphere had a strange feeling, a feeling in the dark, just like the race that he had settled in Zhongjupiter Station and provided a place to live for Xiaobai, just because he also had this strange feeling after seeing Yu Xi by chance. This is also what the sphere did not say, when his race reaches a certain age, a new racial ability will be generated. A vague sense of the ability to discover that the fate of other life forms and one's own strongest inner goals will intersect in the future.

But the sphere obviously wouldn't tell Mu Xun, after all, telling him would mean that he didn't have enough weight to make an equivalent exchange.

"Do you two have any questions?" The sphere asked at Xiaobai and Yu Xi.

"I have a question." Without waiting for Xiaobai to say no, Yu Xi spoke first.

"Oh, what's your problem?"

"What the hell happened to Libin?" Yu Xi asked, looking at the translucent sphere.

"He was so kind, and not so lucky, that in the time of his mercy a creature took advantage of the loophole to take possession of his body and clear all of his autonomous consciousness." The sphere said indifferently, but Mu Xun felt a chill and hurriedly asked.

"Then why didn't you just introduce this creature so that we could take precautions?"

The sphere turned into a mocking human facial expression again, and said to Mu Xun: "One is greedy for life and afraid of death, one is not distracting, and the other is cold and vicious, telling you is no different from not suing you, because he is ten times stronger and will not succeed in doing this to you." Besides, the number of them is not too much, so it is impossible to see if you will be able to meet them again in the future. The translucent sphere's answer, although it still didn't directly state what kind of species it was, also reassured Mu Xun and them.

After listening to the explanation of the sphere, Xiaobai obviously cared more about the three adjectives, so he began to talk to himself and assigned the adjectives used by the sphere just now: "It should be me who is greedy for life and afraid of death, Mu Xun doesn't look like it if there are no distractions, because it should be Yu Xi, then only cold ...... remained."

Before Xiaobai finished speaking, Mu Xun interrupted stiffly: "Blazing, this translucent sphere gentleman just found a few words to describe it, don't take it too seriously." ”

When Mu Xun just finished speaking, the sphere then spoke: "Don't be a gentleman, you can call me four thousand years, anyway, I will stay here for four thousand years in the future." And just now it should be the first time that Mu Xun didn't call Xiaobai, but called Yan Chi, right? ”
