After that, Duanmu Huai and Dardanelle chatted for a while, and sure enough, as Duanmu Huai expected, Dardanelle's merchant ship came from the Holy City, so Duanmu Huai also asked him about the current situation of the galaxy where the guardian is located.

It's no wonder that Duanmu Huai is so cautious, but in the current galaxy, it is completely chaotic.

Basically, after the end of the human empire, the remnants of human civilization are divided into two kinds, one is like the Yajin people, who still remember some imperial history. Another is to be like the humans on the planet that was invaded by demons before, and they don't know where they forgot their ancestors eighty years ago.

And more importantly, because there are few human civilizations in the entire galaxy that can do cross-galaxy action, it has caused such an embarrassing scene that makes people laugh and cry.

The human civilization that remembers the history of the empire basically thinks that it is the only human successor, representing the last glory of the empire——— well, in fact, in the galaxy, this empire has not a thousand but eight hundred, at least you are not the first.

The human civilization that does not remember the history of the empire, although it is not unaware that there are other civilizations and races in the universe, but when you go to communicate with him, he will be very puzzled, why do you, an "alien", look exactly like a human being?

Isn't there some kind of conspiracy in this?

The civilization that inherited the history of the empire was not much better——— I thought I was the only crown prince, but you told me that I still have 180 brothers and sisters competing with me for the throne?

How so......... From the player's point of view, this is annoying. Especially when it comes to cultivating those "undeveloped star fields", the other party will not welcome the player, and may even express dissatisfaction or even hostility. Therefore, later, if the player wants to contact other civilizations, the best way is to first inquire with these ronin merchants who are running around in the galaxy, after all, the interstellar civilizations that have been in contact with the ronin merchants can be regarded as broadening their horizons, not like those indigenous civilizations that have not even gone out of their own galaxy, full of delusions of "there are always people who want to harm me".

Fortunately, according to Dardanelle, the Guardian civilization is still relatively enlightened now, and of course, it is not without trouble. They seem to have experienced a war before, and now the entire Guardian civilization is still huddled within the galaxy, and as for their combat effectiveness......... Well, it's quite ordinary, after all, I haven't even gone out of my own galaxy, and the level of science and technology can be imagined.

In any case, at least the other party has some understanding of the situation in the galaxy and is not too hostile to foreign civilizations......... Well, that's enough.

It's not that Duanmu Huai hasn't been in contact with the Guardian civilization in the game, but that's in the middle of the game. One of the obvious features of Xinghai OL is that all changes are real-time. In other words, the order of players has an impact.

For example, if a player first encounters a civilization and he is friendly to that civilization, then that civilization will maintain a certain level of affection for other players who come here next.

However, if a player is hostile to a civilization they first meet or even does something bad, then that civilization will hate the house and the other players for it.

Therefore, the attitude of the forces that Duanmu Huai encountered in the game does not mean that they will be the same as in reality, after all, who knows how the players in the game encountered these civilizations in the first place, and dealt with them, which caused these civilizations to have their own perception changes?

But now, at least there's good news.

After the transaction was completed, Dardanelle left with the Holy Grail-class battleship in a hurry, and he also left his own communication channel before leaving, and said that Duanmu Huai could contact him at any time if he needed to trade anything. Of course, considering that the human empire has collapsed, and that all is now bartering, a ronin like Dardanelle is still very worth befriending.

And Duanmu Huai also returned to the mothership with his loot, although in general, the inquisitors have the habit of keeping their loot. However, for players, this kind of thing is not as convenient as converting it directly into building points.

So Duanmu Huai's trophies from this gang jump battle were 3 building points and ——— a dirty imp.

"Go wash this little imp."

Duanmu Huai handed the little guy in his hand to the maid doll next to him, and gave a casual order, and the latter nodded in agreement, and took the unconscious imp to the bathroom.

After a series of washing, disinfection, cleaning and other work, the little ghost that was cleaned again appeared in front of Duanmu Huai.

It was a little girl with blonde hair, who appeared to be about ten years old, with strips of cloth over her eyes and a simple tunic.

"You, hello, dear sir..............."

Standing in front of Duanmu Huai, the girl was obviously a little nervous, but luckily she couldn't see it......... Otherwise, I'm afraid I would have fainted long ago.

However, for Duanmu Huai, he was more curious about the language used by this girl——— the language she used was mixed with a certain amount of High Gothic, which indicated that this girl was likely to be born into a very noble psyker family. After all, the average person doesn't learn this technical language.

"You're a Star Whisperer?"

"Yes........."

"What's going on with your eyes???"

Duanmu Huai stared at the girl's blindfolded strip of cloth and asked curiously, and the latter immediately became excited when he heard his inquiry.

"This is to get God's guidance, so my father made me lose my eyes, and only then can I get a higher level of revelation........."

"Hahh..............."

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai silently rolled his eyes, indeed, most of the Star Whisperers are basically blind, but this is not because they are blind that they have powerful spiritual energy, on the contrary, these Star Whisperers are because when they are training, they will carry out a ritual called the Soul Binding Ritual, which is to use the purity of the Lord of Mankind to burn, purify the stains on the body and mind of the Psionics, reshape their neural structure, and make their will easier to resist the temptation of chaos. And only after this ritual will one become a qualified Star Whisperer.

And because the Emperor's Power attacks neutral structures such as the optic nerve, most Star Whisperers go blind after the ritual.

And now, listening to this girl's statement, they instead think that blindness is what can make a person become a star whisperer?

You haven't been blessed and purified by the emperor, you are doing this, isn't it putting the cart before the horse?

But it's no wonder that the human empire has been running out of calves for so many millennia, and the efficacy and process of those rituals have long been forgotten.

"Since you're a Star Whisperer, I'll let you continue your work on my ship."

Duanmu Huai restrained his thoughts and looked at the girl in front of him.

"However, I must warn you that subspace is more terrifying than you think, so I ask you to capture and transmit information to subspace only with my permission, understand? If you disobey my orders, then I promise to throw you out of this battleship in the next moment, turning you into a corpse in the cold of space. ”

Saying.. Edition. 】

"Yes, yes, sir, I understand."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's words, the girl nodded a little nervously.

"What's your name?"

"They all call me Tong, sir."

"Okay, Tong, you can go down, I'll have someone prepare a room for you."

Duanmu Huai gestured, and soon another maid puppet walked over and left the command room with Tong.

It was only at this time that An looked at Duanmu Huai angrily.

"Mr. Knight, you were too fierce with that kid just now."

"Yes, Lord Knight, that child was just captured by pirates, and I think you should be kinder to her......... At least don't let her be so scared........."

Lorena also gave her own advice, obviously, they were not used to seeing Duanmu Huai treat such a little girl so strongly.

And looking at them, Duanmu Huai also shook his head.

"I don't want to do it either, but I have to, because that kid is a star talker and has a lot of potential."

"Star Whisperer?"

"In short, she could feel messages from other worlds, including whispers from evil gods or demons. If she is not careful, she will not know when, this child will become a minion and accomplice of the devil. ”

"How can there be such a thing?"

Ann was taken aback by this, while Lorena frowned.

"Uh......... Hearing the knight say this, I also remembered that it seems that some people can easily feel the existence of demons and their words......... Could it be that the child is one of them, like that........."

"Do you have a solution? Lorena? ”

Duanmu Huai looked at Lorena and asked curiously, after all, in this world, he knew that there were few ways to keep the Star Whisperer from being polluted by chaos, and there was no way to use it at present, so he didn't know if there was any way on Lorena's side.

"I can go back to church and ask the archbishop for help."

Lorena thought for a moment, then spoke.

"Go ahead, if you can find a way to solve this problem, that's a good option too."

"Yes, then my lord, I'll take my leave."

After saying this, Lorena also hurriedly saluted, and then passed through the portal and returned to her world. And An Ze looked at the portal in front of him in surprise, and couldn't help but sigh.

"I didn't expect that there is really anything in this world."

"When you go to more places, you will know that there is no shortage of all kinds of strange things."

Duanmu Huai shook his head and sat back in his chair, of course, he didn't forget to send a torture puppet to lurk in Tong's room and stare at her. After all, Duanmu Huai had already heard from the star thief leader that the reason why he tied this little girl to his chair was because this little girl was always able to point out where and what was like an unpredictable prophet. This is also the reason why he was able to successfully capture the Risk Assessment and launch the attack, and it is clear that Tong has probably communicated with subspace and Chaos.

I don't know if it's her or something else in this little girl's body now.

But in any case, it's better to be careful.

After that, the battleship also followed the route of the star map obtained from Dardanelles, and headed towards the system where the Guardian civilization was located, and after two days of sailing, Duanmu Huai's battleship finally came to the Guardian System.

"What are we going to do next? Mr. Knight? ”

At this time, An also came to Duanmuhuai's side, looking impatiently at the galaxy in front of him, while Duanmuhuai touched the little head of Ogis next to him, and then looked ahead.

"All in all, it's a guest from afar, so let's say hello to them first......... Mia, send a message. ”

"Yes, master."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's order, Mia replied in her characteristic fluttering tone, and then started the communication.

"This is the Inquisition battleship Pink Bunny, please answer when you hear it......... We're pink bunnies........."

"Woo..............."

Listening to Mia's chattering tone, Duanmu Huai and Ogis didn't react, but Ann, Gureya, and Lorena blushed.

"Mr. Knight, why do you have to call it that!"

"Isn't there a better name?"

"Isn't that good?"

Faced with the complaints of An and the other girls, Duanmu Huai rolled his eyes.

"The name and combat effectiveness are not proportional, and it is not your name that sounds good, the power must be great, how great the pink bunny is, you see just this name, who dares to hit us?"

"Uh....................."

Faced with Duanmu Huai's straightforward answer, An had nothing to say for a while.

"Report to the owner, the other party did not answer, it seems that the communication system is out of order.........

And at this time, Miya repaid Duanmu Huai.

"Communication failure?"

Hearing Mia's return, Duanmu Huai frowned, generally speaking, this kind of thing shouldn't happen, could it be that the Guardian Civilization is in some trouble?

"I feel ........."

At this moment, the child, who had been standing in front of the window, suddenly spoke, her hands tightly clenching a pendant hanging from her neck——— which was the holy weapon that Lorena had obtained from the archbishop to ward off evil spirits and exorcise demons. Listen to Lorena and say that this can protect Tong's soul from being tainted and corrupted by demons.

Of course, only God knows how useful it will be.

Hearing Tong's words, Duanmu Huai looked at her.

"What do you feel?"

"Angry......... Hatred......... Boiling rage......... I can feel it, right in front of me......... What's the ......... ......... want to destroy everything."

"Oh?"

Hearing Tong's answer, a cold light flashed in Duanmu Huai's eyes.

"Well, let's go and see."
