Starland City, located in the fourth sector of the Twilight Federation, on the planet Thorin. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

There are many wharves here, and an endless stream of interstellar merchant ships travel to and from the trade route of the 'Bright Star Sea'. Merchants came with shiploads of spar treasures and returned with a full load, both in winter and summer.

Throughout history, it can be found that the rise of Xinglan City is really amazing.

Six hundred years ago, this was still a strange planet, with the beginning of the Age of Interstellar Discovery, the footprints of human expansion came to this planet, and it only took a hundred years to make this the largest city-state in the entire Fourth Star Sector.

However, it was not rich in crops or minerals, and ships came here for only one purpose, to buy and sell slaves.

That's why it's also known as the Slave City.

……

Twilight, the outskirts of Xinglan City, B3 area.

Dirty puddles and dilapidated streets add a layer of gray color to this neighborhood. As in many federal cities, where there is prosperity, there is ruin, there is light, there is darkness, and compared with the richness of the main city, these remote neighborhoods parasitic in the big city, like the people who live in the blocks, are poor, backward, and stubbornly struggle in heaven and earth, like barren grass, and do not prosper.

In an ordinary two-story building.

The silence of the room was broken by the sound of sparks, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy who was concentrating on soldering the chips on the table.

"Ye Kai, can it be repaired? I've been blind in my left eye for three days, so we can buy a new one. I heard that Lovol C3 electronic eye has just been launched, you see, I have known you for so long, should you be kind to me. ”

At the table, a yellow fat cat leaned on an old computer, its mouth was chattering around the new 'electronic eye', it was talking and eating peanuts, its hair was a little dirty, sticking into pieces, and its left eye was an empty hole, which had sparks bursting from time to time, which looked a little weird.

The young man on the table removed the eyepieces, breathed a long sigh of relief, looked at the chip in his hand, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

This is the 'Ultron E series' electronic eye chip, which belongs to the old-fashioned products of a hundred years ago, since the opening of the interstellar voyage, federal scientists have also broken the taboo and launched many robots to make up for the population problem in interstellar colonization.

The fat cat in front of him is probably a family robot produced by the federal technology giant 'Ultron' company a hundred years ago, driven by spar, which was popular for a long time when it came out, but it is a pity that the emergence of a new type of intelligent robot replaced it, and this family robot was ruthlessly beaten into the cold palace.

Old, it means obsolescence.

"Don't talk nonsense, 'Lovol C3' is not something you should consider, but the antiques of 'Ultron E series' are still difficult for me, Hulu, come and try it."

As he spoke, the boy opened the old cat's eye sockets and carefully put the chip in with tweezers.

"Ye Kai, I mean in case, I trust your ability, but what if it is not repaired, Lao Ye entrusted you to me before leaving, I have to take care of your safety. One less eye, my combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced, in case I don't take care of you, how can I be worthy of Lao Ye's explanation. So we might as well buy a new one. ”

The fat cat spat and wiped his face with some vicissitudes, and said with a serious face, Ye Kai rolled his eyes and slapped the back of the fat cat's head: "Don't talk nonsense, what about your bionic eyes, hurry up." ”

The fat cat was in pain, waved his paws and screamed, and was easily pressed by Ye Kai, and when he saw that the attack was ineffective, he reluctantly took out an eyeball from under his buttocks and put it on the eye socket.

Blink, wink.

The chip is in good contact with the magnetic core at the bottom of the eyeball, and the fat cat covers its eyes, tries to move its eyes, and slowly releases its paws.

The cat's eyes opened, and a golden light was reflected in the vertical pupils, which looked similar to the bright carpet under the eyes of ordinary animals.

"Fined?!"

The fat cat was happy, but before he had time to be happy, he only heard the sound of electricity under his eyes, and then he was puffed up, and a puff of black smoke was rising, and the bionic eyes became dim again.

"Well, it really doesn't. I just said, no matter how good your talent is, it's useless, and Lao Ye couldn't just replace it with parts back then. I think we'd better buy a new one. ”

Ye Kai was also a little depressed in the face of the facts, thinking about it, he didn't understand what the problem was, and it seemed that he was still overestimating himself. It's just that I want to buy a new type of electronic eye, and I have to make a lot of money, Ye Kai was shy, but when he saw the fat cat's expectant eyes, he couldn't bear to refuse, so he only agreed.

"Okay, let's sleep tonight, and tomorrow we'll go around Area A, and I'll buy you a suitable one."

……

The night was as cool as water, and in the hut, there was an even snoring sound.

This is a small two-story building, wooden structure, downstairs is a Tianxun shop, the opening of the great colonial era, interstellar communication facilities have sprung up in an endless stream.

Tianxun is one of them.

In order to solve the problem of interstellar signal wave and magnetic field disorder, the scientists of the year took great pains to finally develop an instant messaging device, pushed into the market, hundreds of years, the Federation continued to expand, Tianxun also continued to upgrade, from the original single device that can only instant communication, evolved into a set of communications, media, games, film and television, reading and so on as one of the cutting-edge technology products, no matter how remote the human beings who migrated and colonized, have never been out of touch with the times, during this period Tianxun played a vital role.

It's just that the Tianxun in this small shop looks a little half-old and not new, and the style is a little inconspicuous. The Tianxun displayed on these shelves are all old objects that Ye Kai's father collected from Xinglan City. In a bustling and remote extreme city-state like Xinglan City, it would be nice to enjoy the old things that only belong to the central city, and most of the colonists who live in the periphery.

Ye Kai looked back at the sleeping fat cat, tiptoed downstairs, and found a long black box in the dazzling array of heavenly news, and slowly opened it.

After more than ten seconds of start-up time, the blue light reflected by the black box intertwined into a picture, and a light curtain appeared in front of him.

This Tianxun was a gift from Ye Kai's father when he was eight years old, the first generation of Lovol's product - 'Moonlight Treasure Box'.

The advent of this product that year laid the qualification for 'Lovol' to become a first-line technology company, and it was also this product that sniped off the market share of 'Ultron', making this old giant a thing of history and slowly being eliminated from the market.

It's just that this moonlight treasure box has gradually failed to keep up with the pace of the times with the passage of time, three years ago, all updates to the moonlight treasure box have stopped, after his father disappeared five years ago, this thing has become the only memorial left by his father, Ye Kai was reluctant to throw it away, and he repaired and modified it several times to barely save its life.

Seeing this old light curtain interface, Ye Kai's finger moved to a friend's avatar and gently opened the chat box.

"Huh? Slave owner, are you here at such a late hour? ”

'Slave owner' is Ye Kaitianxun's name, and the name is handy. Ye Kai saw that he hadn't spoken yet, but that friend took the initiative to greet him, and he was a little excited in his heart.

Fingers tapped quickly across the light curtain.

"Hehe, why haven't you slept yet?"

"Oh, I'm going to take the exam of the Fourth Coalition Army tomorrow, I'm afraid I won't be able to pass the exam, I'm so annoying."

Ye Kai thought for a while and replied: "There should be no problem, I remember you said that you have won the ranking in the Federation Elite Competition." ”

The other party sent a shy expression, as if he was very happy: "Do you remember, hehe, in fact, no~ After all, the elite competition is a drill competition of the regional academy, and the four-link is the official assessment competition held by the giant military academies of the four federal star regions, and it is very stressful to compete with hundreds of talented students~~~"

That person was a serious battleship head, but his name was 'Jin Scale', and when he was very young, Ye Kai inadvertently added friends with her, and they have been chatting until now.
