As he got closer and closer to New Blue Star, Xia Long gradually encountered more and more spaceships along the way, maybe the settlement agreement reached by Cass was effective, or maybe the Mothership Life Freedom seemed too imposing, these ships did not dare to approach, kept a considerable distance, and did not even dare to send a message.

Xia Long came to the vicinity of Star C very smoothly, and when he arrived here, it completely belonged to the activities of the people of New Blue Star, and most of the people who made a living from cosmic mining were concentrated here. Some sites in heavily polluted and risky industries have chosen to build here.

The construction of large warships, the refining of nuclear materials, and the manufacture of weapons are all carried out on the C star, and the industries of each city-state have obvious geographical divisions, and they do not disturb each other, but now the No. 1 city-state is strictly guarded.

With the lessons of the previous earth, coupled with the improvement of science and technology, human beings have paid attention to environmental issues, otherwise the highly evolved plants on the New Blue Star would have been wiped out long ago. The majority of the people working on C-Star are clones and robots, after all, humans are very harmful here.

In order to prevent unexpected situations, such as the large area during the impact of meteorites, each site is also separated by a large distance, and there is no barrier that consumes a lot of energy, which indirectly shows the special treatment of the other two major life forms by human beings.

Xia Long is very concerned about a factory on Star C, the Particle Acceleration Center, which is a particle cyclotron jointly managed by the seven major city-states. If you want to return to Earth, the Ancestral Particle Charge and the synthesis of Element 147 must be completed here. The base established by Xia Long was unable to build such equipment for a long time, and the skills were lacking, and the conditions did not allow it.

Star C's natural magnetic field is suitable, and it's not far from star S. And the ring of star E where the Xia Long base is located is already very far away from star S, the magnetic field of star E is too strong, the gravitational force is also strong, and it is a gas planet, many moons of star E, maybe the magnetic field is suitable, but the environment is harsh, either extremely cold, or volcanoes everywhere, or simply not a rocky planet.

Dr. Mel is not omnipotent, and the information in the data box must not cover all the industries involved, not only particle acceleration equipment, but also weapon manufacturing, protective armor manufacturing, nuclear ore precision refining and many other equipment, Xia Long's existing skills and resources cannot be completed independently, or can only reach a relatively backward level.

Knowing about Xia Long's trouble, Alice felt like she had found a job, and said, "What do you plan to do with the cosmic shipwreckers you rescued, and the personnel you captured the two large warships before, and release them directly when they arrive at New Blue Star?"

"The personnel of the two warships, I said before that I would bring them back to New Blue Star, and those cosmic shipwrecks who were rescued sporadically were also similar plans, but on the way, I had some hostage thoughts, in case Cass didn't talk about it, Alice, do you have a better plan?" Xia Long asked expectantly.

Alice smiled lightly, pointed a finger at Xia Long's head and said, "You are still the captain of the Life Freedom, before these people are released, you can communicate well, and when they return to New Blue Star, it won't be long before they say good things about you!"

Xia Long had a feeling that he had broken through the words: "This method is very good, my diplomatic spokesman, then this matter will be handled by you, and the first batch of agricultural products I have grown will be given priority for you to enjoy!" It's not a good strategy to figure out everything by yourself.

When it was only the last stage of the voyage from New Zealand Star, Xia Long saw more spaceships coming and going between New Blue Star and C Star, perhaps because of the large number of people, these spaceships sent out a lot of greeting messages, the computer reminded Xia Long whether he wanted to watch it, knowing that his image as a resident of New Blue Star was not very good, Xia Long couldn't help but look at a few with apprehension, and as a result, Qi's blood pressure rose a lot.

"Guy who smuggles agricultural products, get out of Dr. Mel's spaceship, it's because you stole his spaceship, and our city-state No. 1 is now very different!"

"Xia Long, you have the ability to leave the Life Freedom, we will definitely treat you well, hand over Dr. Mel's data box, his technology and techniques you use to benefit the residents of New Blue Star, not yours alone!"

"You thief who stole the future of New Blue Star, surrender quickly, you are not qualified to stay on the Life Freedom, if you don't dare to come out, I will capture you alive when the time comes, just give it to Lord Cass for a bounty!"

Looking at these very devastating news, Xia Long responded a few words and escalated the war of words, but was stopped by Alice: "You are angry now, it's better not to respond more, anyway, Cass won't attack you now, I'll send a group message later, and the response should be handed over to me as a diplomatic spokesman!" ”

Soon the ships all received the same message: I, Charlon, had rightfully received the Life Freedom, and Dr. Mel's data box, not what you said was stolen, as can be found in Cass's communication records; I, Xia Long, came with the Life Freedom to benefit New Blue Star and resist the upcoming meteorite rain, and I hope everyone will put big things first.

In space, small spaceships are shuttling back and forth among several large warships, this is the life of miners, with individuals as a unit, these small spaceships collect resources and store them in the large warships managed by the major city-states, and then the city-state high-level statistics on meritorious deeds.

Seeing that Xia Long's mood was not improving, Alice quipped: "I heard that in Cass's bounty, you are worth a large warship, or you let me catch it, I will tie you up and contact Cass to let him see it, maybe we can join forces to deceive one, why don't you try?" I'm ready for the ropes! ”

Xia Long understood Alice's kindness, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm fine, I'll forget it after a while, when you chased me before, I don't know how much such news Lu Dao received, and this little thing can't defeat me." ”

Computer: I received a trusted encrypted message and needed a data box to untie it, do you want to watch it?

This time, Xia Long was very calm, and watched directly: Master, we are the builders of the sub-ship, clones No. 1 and No. 2, we are now in the No. 1 city-state thrift market, is there a way to pick us up?

Seeing the news of these two people, Xia Long's mood immediately improved, and he quickly responded: "I have reached a temporary settlement agreement with Cass to deal with the meteorite rain together, according to the agreement, he will provide me with some weapons, and when the time comes, I will choose the location in the black market near the No. 1 city-state, you pay attention, and send me a message when the time comes!" ”

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Cass, who had not been in contact with Xia Long for a long time, to send a video call: "Long time no see, Xia Long, you look much better, you haven't encountered any obstacles when you come from afar, right?" I am a man of my word, and I hope that when the time comes, we will deal with the meteorite shower, and we will have a happy cooperation! ”

"As long as you don't want to think crookedly, I'm sure our cooperation will be very pleasant! Are the weapons provided to me ready? If you're ready, we'll receive it on the black market on the outskirts of City-State No. 1, and you know that I used to smuggle agricultural products, so I'm familiar with it; Tell the major city-states to pay attention, don't fire at me, I have the Ancestor Particle here, even if it is not charged, but who knows how powerful it is? ”

Cass is also worthy of being the founder of the 6 major city-states, and he can't see the joy and anger, and continues: "Don't worry, it's all nuclear-powered missiles, how to use the computer of the Life Freedom should know the way, just do what you say, the black market outside the No. 1 city-state, you can change careers fast enough, before you leave, you trade agricultural products, and after you come back, you will trade missiles!" ”

Xia Long also responded expressionlessly: "There is still a lot of time before the meteorite rain, during this time I hope we all are safe, during this period my spaceship will stay near the black market for a long time, you should know that I need time to improve the missile launch system in the Life Freedom, otherwise I can't use your body of missiles." ”

The negotiation between the two ended quickly, and Cass's unscrupulous attitude made Charon very worried, and all his requests were to agree as much as possible, which was obviously very different from Cass's previous style, but it was definitely impossible to expect him to give up his desire for Dr. Mel's data box.

In the Ark of City-State No. 3, Cass 1, dressed in black protective armor, was bending down to report the information: "Great Cass Lord, thank you for giving me life!" Dolly and David are really careful, it took so long for the stealth technique to be handed over to us, and it is estimated that in a few years our warships will all be equipped with stealth effects. Are you so merciful about Xia Long? ”

Cass sneered: "You have done a very good job in stealth, if it were me, I wouldn't reveal it all at once!" Between me and Xia Long, it is not possible to solve it overnight, it will be a long time of competition, he has the progenitor particles and cannot take risks, and I still want to get the intact data box. The power of this meteorite rain is beyond your imagination, I will arrange it freely, and let Xia Long suffer a little loss! What about the so-called home that Dolly and David are going to build? ”

"According to your instructions, the supplies we provide are slow, and the process will only be accelerated when they reveal valid information. Everything is within the scope of your expectations, and it will certainly not be easy to complete their ideas thoroughly. ”

In the cockpit of the Mothership Freedom of Life, a beautiful blue planet has appeared in front of Xia Long, quiet and peaceful, but soon this planet will face a test, a meteorite rain that occurs once in a thousand years! According to Dr. Mel's pessimistic estimate, once there is a war on New Zealand Star, it will not take much time to scrap it!

Looking at the scattered satellite fortresses over the New Blue Star, Xia Long realized the meaning of science and technology to create miracles, the predecessors of these satellite fortresses were all meteorites, and some were even going to hit the meteorites of the New Blue Star, but they were all subdued, and then built into satellite fortresses, and arranged according to the stars watched by the earth, to prevent other meteorites from hitting the New Blue Star.

Xia Long stared at the seven artificial satellite fortresses arranged in the "Big Dipper", and couldn't help but feel a little inspired, if he wanted to realize the artificial planet, maybe it was a good plan to refer to the construction of the artificial satellite fortress, even if it couldn't be successful, he could accumulate a lot of experience.

The mothership Life Freedom arrived safely and soundly above the black market attached to the No. 1 city-state, but the voice of the computer was rushed: very weak trusted encrypted signals were received, some signals were weak and could not be decrypted, please instruct the owner!

Xia Long let the computer follow the signal to capture the picture, looking at it, Xia Long's eyes moistened a little, a pile of familiar scrap materials came into Xia Long's sight, next to a badly damaged robot, a little skin can see that this robot used to be humanoid appearance, the appearance is no different from a human, both hands hold an antique "steering wheel" in his arms.
