"Knock Knock ......"

"Knock Knock ......"

The sound of fingers tapping on the wooden table was like a bell, and the scattered spiritual energy was like a wave pushing away layer by layer, forming an invisible rhythm in the room.

For a long time, in the empty room, a sigh sounded.

After Old Man Li finished telling the story, it was as if he had let go of a heavy heart, and the whole person sat on the chair, as if his soul was out of his body, wandering out of the world.

Shen Sen's ten fingers were crossed together, but his brows were furrowed.

The story is wonderful, but there are indeed a lot of doubts in it.

It seemed that he had expected it a long time ago, and after a little sluggishness, the old man regained his composure and spoke directly.

"Leader Shen Sen, if you have anything you want to ask, just ask."

"Little Lao'er must know everything, say everything, and there is nothing that can't be said."

The old man's tone was very sincere, and what he said was also the truth.

"That's good!" Shen Sen stretched his brows and asked unceremoniously, "You said you came here on a spaceship, so where did you come from?"

"Another planet?"

The ability to travel in a spaceship and in a space span of forty years, transform a planet into a bustling metropolis.

Such a civilization must have already become the local overlord in their galaxy.

Why did you come here, for colonization or for some other purpose?

"Don't be afraid of the boss's jokes!" Old man Li's expression was calm. "Since I was born, I've grown up in the incubator of the ship."

"A period of sleep, a period of education."

"But no one has ever told us where we came from or why we're living on a spaceship now."

Speaking of this, the old man's tone inadvertently revealed a few doubts.

"Advanced technology has given us a long life, and there are hundreds of engineers in our spacecraft who are more than 200 years old."

"But even for them, no one knows the answer."

"Later, we don't care about these anymore, we think of ourselves as the chosen ones, and we move freely through the vast universe."

"Until one day, the joint meeting of the wise men of our spaceship decided that it was time to find a planet where we could live, settle down, and carry forward our civilization."

"So, here we are."

After the old man finished speaking, he added with an expressionless face.

"Of course, I once suspected that someone in the Joint Council of the Most Powerful Wise Men in our ship knew about it, but it was hidden by them for some purpose."

"Otherwise, it is impossible to explain that the spacecraft has a lot of technology and equipment on board that is beyond our research capabilities at the time."

"We're just going to use those things, but we don't know how to research and make them."

"But at that time, everyone ignored these intentionally or unintentionally, and my personal status was not very high, and it was not good to say anything."

After listening to this, Shen Sen didn't make any comments on it, just nodded, as if comforting, and asked what Old Man Li had been doing in the past few years.

"So what have you found in the past few years, and is there any clue to what caused your civilization to be destroyed in an instant......"

The factor that can destroy such a powerful civilization in an instant, Shen Sen feels that even the three-body people in the three-body world may not be able to do it.

Either it comes from an amorphous natural disaster in the universe, or it is an existence like a singer's civilization.

If there is no definite answer, it is like the sword of Damocles hanging in mid-air above a person's head, and there is a possibility that it will fall at any time.

In the same situation, if one day suddenly comes again, the camp will also be in danger.

But Old Man Li said a reasonable and unexpected answer.

"I don't know ......," he shook his head, "I can't find a single trace of being attacked by the enemy." ”

"Our planetary defenses disappeared at that moment as if they were unfortified."

"All the fleets, the buildings, the factories, and even ourselves are like decaying sand and stones, and in an instant, they are reduced to powder."

Even more terrifying than an enemy too strong to be defeated is the unknown.

What Old Man Li was afraid of was that he didn't even know if it was the enemy or an accident in the universe that led to the destruction of all this.

"I see."

Shen Sen bowed his head and asked for a long time, but he didn't ask any valuable answers.

It seems that all the useful information has been said in detail just now, so now I can only ask some unknown guesses that Old Man Li himself can't be sure of.

I have to say that Old Man Li is a rare smart person. This cleverness is not petty cleverness, but the ability to be organized and logically clear.

The 109-year-old "old age" does not seem to have caused much damage to his brain, but the precipitation of wisdom has made him more profound.

Basically, he had already said everything Shen Sen wanted to know in advance, except for one point.

The air froze for a moment, and then was shattered by Shen Sen again.

"The old gentleman really has an extraordinary background......"

"However, I don't understand why I didn't say it sooner or later, why I was talking about these things now."

"I don't know if the old gentleman can solve my confusion so that I don't get confused."

Shen Sen's smile was warm, like a spring breeze, but these words made the old man opposite become serious.

He immediately straightened up, and his tone was solemn, and he said loudly.

"I'm here this time to give the leader a big gift."

"But before that, I want to take the liberty of asking a question that makes me very curious, I don't know ......."

"Since you are presumptuous, the old gentleman is still ready to ask."

Shen Sen smiled and said meaningfully.

"But I don't think I will answer, I'm afraid I won't get the gift you gave me, so just ask......"

Old man Li was a little embarrassed, but he still continued to insist on his question without being arrogant.

"I just wanted to ask where the things the leader brought today came from."

"Hmmm......"

The air was suddenly quiet, but it felt relieved for a moment.

"Well, I can't tell you this, I need to see your sincerity, or your loyalty, old man."

Shen Sen made no secret of his thoughts, unless he completely became someone he could trust, he couldn't get this answer.

"Okay, I'll change the question, I don't know if I can see anything like this today, will I be able to see anything else in the future?"

Shen Sen pondered for a moment and gave a definite answer.

"Of course, you'll see a lot more, enough supplies to give the whole camp a new look."

His words are both an answer and a promise.

Old man Li asked a question just now, but in fact, he really wanted Shen Sen to make a promise. See more supplies, and make sure he's alive.

This is all something that Shen Sen can do, and it is also something that Shen Sen can regret at any time, depending on the gift that the old man gave him.

"I see." Old man Li nodded.

Then his face softened, and a smile gradually appeared.

"My gift to the Boss is a precious STC standard production template system."

"STC Standard Production Template System?"

Shen Sen was taken aback, he remembered that the old man had said this word before, and this thing seemed to be the key to their ability to establish civilization in a short period of time.
