The Pop Man is one of the humanoid races in the galaxy, and it is the kind of humanoid race that has nothing special, the biggest difference between the appearance and the human is the specially strengthened skull, which is different from the human skull, and the human skull has an additional reinforcement structure, so that their skull is particularly resistant to impact.

Human alien behaviorists have been studying for a long time, but they don't understand how this happened, and they can only boil it down to "the redundant part produced by natural selection".

Now Lin Youde stared at the protruding part of the pop man's head.

Captain Pope stared at Noah in the captain's seat, and after a few seconds remembered that he should get down to business, he said, "Thank you for your help......

Lin Youde raised his eyebrows.

"Ensign Sasara, what's the matter with this accent?"

"In order to distinguish between the speeches of different races, it is convenient to facilitate the command ...... of joint operations"

"I already know this, why is it a Hebei accent?"

"I'll let the system pick it at random, Commander, if you don't like this, you can specify an accent yourself."

Lin Youde thought about it for a while (because the author doesn't know Hebei dialect, the following pop people's speeches are still presented in Mandarin), so he spoke: "You're welcome, in fact, you also know that the other party did it to us first." ”

The other party remained silent, apparently trying to avoid talking about credit.

The officer's channel Rien Leko has already begun to complain: "Just shouted so hard, so aggressively to give us credit, now it's better, shut up and don't speak." I want to put my credit on it. I think we managed to rob them, and their firepower and combat effectiveness are much weaker than those of the pirates. ”

Xia Yongzhi immediately teased: "The original old boy has revealed his true nature." Chief Engineer. ”

"Is the captain going to be a virgin? Ah no, the road is uneven, and the sword is drawn to help, which does not belong to the Virgin. It's just an ordinary passing hero.,Anyway, if they take the initiative to mention credit.,Even I'll take the initiative to refuse.。 ”

Probably no one in the officer channel will believe Enleko's statement.

Lin Youde thought about it and forgot it, and he didn't lack that bit of credit, so he went straight to the point: "Do you know the details of the boats that are silent now?" ”

"I don't know, we're still in the range of their warp dampers, I'm afraid they're attacking us again, so please ......"

"Unknown fleet turn off the warp damper!" Xia Yongzhi's report interrupted the Pop man's words.

"Now you're safe." Lin Youde said, "Then don't leave it at that." ”

Then Lin Youde saluted the poppers. Cut off communications, and at the same time ask for orders for Noah to contact the unknown fleet directly.

However, Noah's contact did not respond, and the unknown fleet directly started the warp engine, and all four ships disappeared at once.

"I've tracked the enemy's warp target, do you want to chase it?" Xia Yongzhi asked.

"No," Lin Youde responded, "although I don't think anyone will set such an idiot's trap, I don't want to chase it over and see if it's a trap." We went into the black hole as originally planned, to the other side of the galaxy. ”

In fact, at this time, Lin Youde and they were already orbiting the black hole. Just now, Xia Yongzhi moved outside the warp speed damping range just to keep the ship in a state where it could run away at any time, and once Lin Youde decided to ignore this, they would warp to the other side of the black hole for a short distance.

Space is so large that it is impossible to completely defend around the black hole - to do this, you have to deploy heavy forces around the black hole.

This is also the reason why Lin Youde knew that the enemy might be waiting in the black hole and still decided to go straight to the black hole - it was impossible for the enemy to prevent the Enterprise from entering the black hole. Because there are so many points that can be entered, it is impossible not to send a large regular fleet to block them.

In fact, even if the regular fleet is mobilized, it may not be able to block it. The difference in how much the enemy threw into the fleet was how many holes there were in the Enterprise.

After Lin Youde's order was given. Xia Yongzhi immediately began to carry out the preparatory procedures before the battleship entered the black hole.

That's when the Bopp communications came again.

"Excuse me, are you planning to go to the other side of the galaxy through the black hole?" The Pop man, who had just spoken to Lin Youde, asked cautiously. At the same time, his eyes kept drifting to Noah.

"Yes, we're going to go to the other side of the galaxy."

The popper hesitated for a moment, then said, "Well, we heard something, about your ship...... Hearsay. But there are some things that we don't understand. Is your ship a betrayal of humanity? ”

"Yes," Lin Youde replied decisively, "To be precise, we don't want to use force to slaughter our compatriots, so we defected, and we will naturally go back when the civil war is over." ”

"Well, that's right, your ship's force is impressive. Excuse me, the main guns of your ship ......"

"It's a prototype of the latest weapon ever developed." Lin Youde concealed the point of "super civilization", after all, the Galactic Council officially did not recognize the existence of super civilization.

Although the ruling class of races of less than 100 people knows that supercivilization exists, and there is no special emphasis on secrecy, the galaxy itself is too big, and there are thousands of colonized worlds by all races of the Galactic Council, and the number of planets that cannot be called colonized worlds is even more terrifying. The enormity of the world itself will affect the spread of information, and there may be a bunch of people in the core world of civilization who know about the existence of supercivilizations, but everyone in the remote star regions may regard supercivilizations as urban legends, because the information and intelligence that can prove the existence of supercivilizations cannot be completely transmitted to these star regions.

In addition, the Galactic Council has been using propaganda tactics to deliberately make people regard supercivilizations as legends, so people in the galaxy who do not believe that supercivilizations exist still occupy an absolute majority - putting real information in a large number of false information will generally lead people to regard real information as false information, not to mention that the continuous propaganda campaign has made ordinary people in the galaxy subjectively believe that supercivilizations do not exist.

As for the crew of the Enterprise, they quickly accepted the existence of super-civilization, and that was because the crew of the Enterprise did not have many ordinary people. When Hu Tao, an ordinary person, said that he had just learned about the existence of Prometheus Fire, he thought that this was another so-called test after many days.

The aliens that the Enterprise has come into contact with since its voyage are basically the ruling class and those who are very close to the ruling class - these people should have known about supercivilization.

But now these Pops are different.

The pirates also said just now, they only know that there are things on the Enterprise that "others are willing to pay a lot of money to buy", judging from their unplanned attack on the Enterprise, the pirates should not know about the supercivilization: after the pirates ate the Italian cannon, they were so frightened that they choked and fled, which shows that they are not psychologically prepared for the combat effectiveness of the Enterprise, if they knew in advance that there were super-civilization relics on the Enterprise, it is impossible to be so unprepared.

Thinking about it from another perspective, if Lin Youde was a pirate leader, it was unlikely that he would attack a ship with super-civilization relics so simply.

Therefore, Lin Youde hid the content related to super-civilization, and the Pop people did not behave strangely, but simply accepted Lin Youde's statement.

"In this way, human beings are really powerful, when I was a child, human beings were still the race behind us, I am middle-aged, human beings have become so powerful, the firepower shown by your ship just now is really amazing, I can't help but remember that when I was studying, I read the information of your human and pig tribes in arbitration wars, and I am still wondering how your spaceship is so weak firepower, how did you overturn the pig clan to win the war. After all, at that time, although you made rapid progress, you were still behind us. In retrospect, the whole clan was laughing at you at that time, and it was so sad that our clan was waiting to see your good show. ”

Lin Youde and Xia Yongzhi glanced at each other, and the latter spoke in the officer's channel: "When we arbitrated the war with the pig clan, the ranking was already behind the Pop people, and we were only a few places away. ”

"Anyway, this Pop man has lived really long." Nhleko focuses on different aspects.

"The Pop people have a lifespan of more than three hundred years, and there are many long-lived races in the galaxy, and Her Royal Highness the princess on our ship is, and when we are all gray, she will still be the same as she is now." This passage of popular science comes from Second Lieutenant Lan Xiaolian.

"If the result of living longer is to become a dead house like the Ilarai, I'd rather live a short life." Nhleko said.

De Niro, who had not spoken, actually agreed: "That's right, a short life can burn brilliantly." ”

At this time, Noah suddenly said to the Popper, "Have you finished sighing?" We're going to get ready to go into the black hole, so you'd better hurry. ”

Everyone on the bridge - well, only Lin Youde and Xia Yongzhi - looked at Noah together.

The popper was slightly surprised: "I—I thought it was a totem or something, but it turned out to be a real person?" ”

Lin Youde really wants to complain, how can there be a totem squeaking and eating?

The Pop continued, "Because I've heard some rumors, and as the owner of the merchant fleet, I always hear all kinds of rumors, including that you humans will sacrifice some totems and give them something to eat......"

Wait, Mr. Pope, do you think that the tribute is really eaten by the totem?

Xia Yongzhi in the officer's channel said: "We ...... Is Freya to blame in the past, could it be that races that don't communicate much with humans have a lot of misunderstandings about humans? ”

"It's possible ......," the other officers agreed.

"Anyway," said the popper, "thank you very much for your help, we...... We're going to pay you credit after discussion, but ...... As you have seen, our combat strength has been greatly lost under the attacks of pirates and unknown fleets, the only fully armed ship has been completely destroyed, and the remaining four merchant ships are scarred, since you are no longer a regular army, can we ...... Uh, hire guys? ”

"I feel," Enhleko said, "that if you agree here, you'll start the Pop side quest!" ”

"But you can also fall into a trap." Lin Youde responded. (To be continued......)
