"Hey, I said I'm from the Machine Empire, did you hear me, don't ignore me." With only half of his body left, and no arms, Thangka couldn't move except for talking.

However, his body is mechanical after all, and with the help of the undulating and wriggling of the machine, he can move a few times on the ground.

Just moved a few times, and was trampled under Lu Yao's feet.

"Hey, be honest with me, don't crawl around like a worm."

Well, Lu Yao's behavior may still be a reward for a certain group, but Thangka obviously doesn't think so.

When you open your mouth, swear words squirt out.

It's just that as soon as the words came out, Lu Yao kicked him in the mouth, and the back heel directly stuffed the whole mouth, so that he couldn't say a word.

Well, for a certain group class, this is a more reward, but Thangka is angry and has to be angry.

"Tell me, what the hell is the Machine Empire?" Lin Xu finally put down the wanted warrant for the time being, and continued to ask.

"You guys, don't you know the Machine Empire?" Lu Yao's heel withdrew, and Thangka, who was finally able to speak, looked incredible.

"Should we know?"

"That's, that's the Machine Empire, the only existence that can compete with the Galaxy Alliance! You don't even know? Which country civilization did you come from? ”

"We're rednecks, so we're really sorry, so the Machine Empire is full of transformers like you?" Lin Xu continued to ask expressionlessly.

"Hahaha, of course not, ordinary low-level flesh and blood creatures, there are qualified to be transformed, only I have been tested like this, and those who are qualified to ascend can accept transformation, they are machines in life, and they will be honored in the mechanical heaven after death, and they will be immortal."

"Mechanical Heaven?" It's a new term again, Lin Xu asked, "Does it mean to become a digital life in the network?" ”

"How can it be such a superficial thing as digital life, this is the real soul ascending to the mechanical heavens, and not just copying a memory signal of your memory and storing it, you know the difference? You idiot. ”

Then he was rewarded by Lu Yao's heel kick into his mouth again.

"True souls ascend to the kingdom of the Machine?" Lin Xu was stunned for a moment, and then thought thoughtfully.

Does intelligent life have a soul? Of course not, that kind of ethereal thing is not scientific at all, and it is not materialistic.

But is intelligent life conscious? There must be.

Although consciousness cannot be seen or touched, it is a real objective existence.

"By soul, do you mean consciousness?" Lin Xu continued to ask.

So Lu Yao pulled out the heel of her shoe and glared at him fiercely.

I don't know if he was tamed by Lu Yao, but Thangka really continued to answer honestly.

"That's right, it's consciousness, my consciousness was briefly uploaded to the mechanical heaven when I was transforming my body, I'm pretty sure it's my consciousness, and it can't be wrong." When Thangka said this, his eyes were still shining with a frenzied light.

"Consciousness upload technology!" Lin Xu nodded.

"Yes, it's consciousness uploading, a technology that only the Machine Empire can master." Thangka is not the kind of religious madman who is brainwashed by religion, he is just a mortal who wants eternal life, after all, the temptation of eternal life, I believe that not many people can resist.

"Understood, last question, you said you were a nail in the Machine Empire that was nailed here?" Lin Xu asked.

"Yes, this is one of the borders between the Mechanical Empire and the Galaxy Alliance, both sides have driven a lot of nails here, and they both want to take this place for themselves, but they are afraid of each other, otherwise any chaotic star field would have been wiped out a long time ago." Thangka said disdainfully.

"I see, okay, thank you for the information."

"So, can you let me go?"

"I didn't promise to let you go."

"You, you..."

It's just that before he could say it, he was kicked into his mouth by Lu Yao with a heel again.

"Lu Yao, don't you feel dirty? Sick to death with drooling. After watching the south candle for a long time, he finally couldn't help but say.

"It's okay, just throw these shoes away in a moment." Lu Yao said calmly.

Then he bent down and picked up the thangka and took it outside to solve it.

After all, you can't get dirty, the Skylark isn't.

And Lin Xu followed Nan Candle into the base where the remnants of the interstellar pirates were scattered, and came to the place where Nan Candle found the wanted warrant.

"This seems to be an ordinary quantum communication device, although it is indeed relatively powerful and can receive quantum signals from a few light years away, but it is impossible to be so fast." Lin Xu was puzzled.

Immediately opened the personal space, released a large number of nanobots, took over the entire half-abandoned base, and then Zhenxing took over the database and began to retrieve information.

And soon Zhenxing completed the retrieval of intelligence, after all, it is only a pirate base, and it is impossible to have any massive data and special intelligence.

However, I did find some information about the communication device.

"Hyperspace communication technology? Delivering packets of information by means of information jumps? Lin Xu was stunned by what he found.

"Yes, the entire Galaxy Alliance has established countless communication base stations in the vast galaxy, basically one every 100 light years, to transmit information packets in a leaping way, so that information from all parts of the alliance can be transmitted to all parts of the alliance within a few days, which is the information superhighway strategy that the alliance has adhered to for countless years, and it is also one of the basic policies of the alliance."

"It's a big deal." Lin Xu said with emotion.

Of course, this does not mean that the Alliance has mastered the ability of spacecraft to make space jumps.

Compared to making spatial jumps to specific objects, such as an apple and a bottle of water.

It's obviously much easier to make a spatial jump to information.

Because information is such a thing, as long as it can open an atom-sized space transition channel, it is enough for a large amount of information to pass through.

The real thing is troublesome.

The difficulty is simply not a grade.

Even so, under the premise that the alliance cannot grasp the specific physical space jump, it is already very powerful to use the method of information space jump to build a communication network all over the alliance.

At least if the Great Wall of the Galaxy had this level of technology, it wouldn't need to use stars to build a channel.

Thinking about it this way, Lin Xu discovered the difference in the technological development of the two river systems.

On the side of the Galaxy Alliance, both communication technology and curvature engine technology are obviously superior.

On the other side of the galaxy, the technology of war is more developed.

This can be seen from the previous time when Mu Xiyue fought with the blocking fleet when he was in the stellar ring of the airport.

The warship technology on their side is really not good.

It can only be said that the environment here is too peaceful.

Although the Machine Empire is in confrontation with the Galactic Alliance, it is only in confrontation most of the time, and there is no direct act of war.

The subordinate civilizations below are also because there are big guys on top of them, each of them is relatively stable and will not fight easily, and peaceful development is the mainstream.

It's not like it's going to be a pot of porridge on the other side of the galaxy.

Not only do they fight each other, but they also have to fight against disorder and filth.

Can the technology of war be underdeveloped!

I believe that if the two parties have the opportunity to meet each other, the first feeling is that they feel that each other's technology trees are crooked.

After knowing the way the information was transmitted, Lin Xu was not interested in this base.

After all, what he saw in front of him now was indeed just an ordinary quantum communication device, and the range of communication was only a few light years.

After receiving the information packet, the communication base station of 100 light years will broadcast what can be known to the public and broadcast it widely.

In this way, all localities will be able to listen to the information of the entire alliance as if they were listening to the radio.

And the quantum communication device in front of him, to put it bluntly, is similar to a radio used to receive the broadcast of the communication base station.

After scanning its structure by Zhenxing, the original quantum communication device on the Skylark was slightly changed to a receiving frequency band, and the alliance information could be heard.

That's right, Lin Xu also wants to hear the information that the alliance has advertised, and he can be regarded as able to grasp the latest developments.

Returning to the Skylark, the Skylark slowly left the level, finally leaving the half-ruined interstellar pirate base.

As soon as he came to the Chaos Star Field, he fought a wave of pirates, which can be regarded as a good deed.

Moreover, from the pirate's database, he learned the star map of several large settlements in the chaotic star field, which can bypass the chaotic area full of asteroid meteorite belts.

Congratulations, congratulations.

Although, Lin Xu didn't care much about the meteorite belt, just go over it recklessly.

But the location of large settlements is still needed.

"Master, a message has been sent from several ships ahead, asking if they can go with us." Zhenxing's voice rang out.

"Peers? This is looking for a free bodyguard! Lin Xu smiled.

I didn't care, I thought about it and replied, "Reply to them, if you can keep up, you can keep up, and let's take the meteorite belt." ”

Soon, there were several cheers from the several spaceships waiting in front.

Pirates are rampant in this chaotic star field, like the kind that can spend money to buy a road just now.

The most feared thing is to encounter direct robbery and rob everything.

So to be able to go with the Skylark, of course, it would be the best.

It's just that soon, they won't be able to laugh.

"Why, why don't you take the star road and go straight to the meteorite?"

"In the state of curvature navigation, hitting a meteorite is a dead end, how dare they?"

"Their speed is so fast, they have already exceeded 500 times the speed of light, and they are still accelerating."

With the technology of the Galaxy Alliance, 500 times the speed of light is already the limit of curvature navigation, but the spaceship in front of him has obviously exceeded this limit.

In this way, the passengers on the spacecraft, who were still cheering just now, look at me, I look at you, and watched the Skylark burrow into the meteorite belt and disappear.

And the Skylark has already gone deep into the meteorite belt.

At the speed of light, meteorites continued to pass in front of you, and the Skylark was like a swift in the clouds, deftly avoiding all the meteorites.

In the chaotic star field with a range of hundreds of light years, the largest settlement closest to Lin Xu's current location was located on the moon of a gaseous planet twenty light years away.

And the distance of twenty light years, coupled with the meteorite belt that Lin Xu walked directly through in a straight line, so just seven days later, he had already arrived above the settlement.

The gas planet is far away from the star it orbits, so theoretically it is impossible for the planet's moon to have enough light.

However, the gas planet itself reflects the light of the star, and the light of the star itself makes the moon, although it is not warm, but it is not cold to the extent of perennial ice.

At most, for most of the year, it is shrouded in freezing temperatures of minus 50 degrees Celsius.

Therefore, with such a harsh climate, it is natural that indigenous civilizations cannot be born easily.

In addition, this place has been occupied again and has become a large settlement, unless a large settlement leaves this planet one day, eighty percent of the planet will not be able to give birth to native intelligent creatures.

"This is the Harvey Colony, named after the interstellar pirate Harvey, who is also the administrator of the pirate. All those who come here, must obey his decrees, or else they will be taken by Harvey to feed his pet vultures. Miss Qiu stood behind Lin Xu and introduced him to the information here.

Of course, this information was also obtained from the previous base database, and then Miss Qiu sorted it out in concise language.

"What kind of decree is it? Is it in the database? Lin Xu asked.

"These are not well documented." Miss Qiu shook her head.

"Okay, anyway, our purpose is to find a guide, and if the law is not lawful, let's talk about it." Lin Xu didn't care.

It's like he doesn't care, the rules between the ants.

So the lark landed on the moon of the gaseous planet in front of him, and soon found the most conspicuous psoriasis on the moon.

Well, you can't expect any architectural plans from the pirates either, right?

So that large mess of buildings, piled on top of each other, gorgeous high-rise buildings and shacks mixed together, looked like a trumpet body poison.

The Skylark descended towards the ground, and in the process of landing, I saw all kinds of spaceships, which were also constantly taking off and landing.

These ships all take off and land from a fixed location.

It was a vast stretch of square, with thousands of various ships docked on it.

Some are cargo ships, and there are countless slave laborers who operate the machinery to transport the goods.

And some are pirate ships, and a large number of interstellar pirates are pouring down, ready to go to the colony for some fun.

So the Skylark landed there as well.

Soon, it was docked in a place full of small spaceships.

Nan Zhu leaned on the porthole, looking at the various races outside, shuttling through the square full of various spaceships, his eyes were full of curiosity.

Anyway, she's curious about what she's never seen, and she doesn't know if it's like this.

"Let's go, let's go down too." Lin Xu greeted.

"Oh, let's go." Nan Candle was the first to rush out.

Lin Xu followed behind, and behind him were Miss Qiu, Mu Xiyue and Lu Yao.

As soon as the five of them came out of the Skylark, they felt the cold on this planet.

It's not the coldest time on the planet, but it's also getting below freezing.

Although Lin Xu and the five of them didn't feel anything, in order not to be conspicuous, they also put on thick clothes, just like the people outside.

As soon as he stepped out of the Skylark, a man dressed in strange decorations and with his teeth leaking out turned out walked up with a few guards on his toes.

blocked Lin Xu's way, and his eyes were full of staring at Lin Xu from above.

"Well, do I have dirt on my face?" Lin Xu asked puzzled.

"Pay the tax, do you want to leave after you pay the tax? Lord Harvey's tax, you dare not pay it, I think you are tired of living. The man immediately became unhappy and pointed at Lin Xu and said.

So before Lin Xu could act, Mu Xiyue next to him directly extended and condensed, and in an instant, the nanobot surged, directly pinching the tax officer with his teeth turned out, pinching his neck and lifting him up in the air.

"Clean mouth, do you want to die?" Mu Xiyue said politely.

The immortals from the immortal ship, who suppressed the galaxy, have never been good-tempered.

Looking at her stupid and cute appearance by Lin Xu's side, it was only by Lin Xu's side.

"God, God-giver!" A few guards next to him, who were originally hanging, immediately raised their weapons nervously, but no one dared to make the first move.

They had recognized that this iconic ability, like magic, was not a godsend.

"It's okay to teach a lesson, we're just here to find someone." Lin Xu said lightly.

So Mu Xiyue let go, and with a pop, the man fell to the ground.

"You, you are presumptuous, ahem, what about the God-giver, Lord Harvey is not afraid of you." The tax collector coughed as he kicked his feet on the ground and pulled out for some distance.

Although the eyes of Lin Xu and the others were resentful, they didn't dare to step forward.

Although Harvey is not afraid of the gods, it does not mean that they are not afraid of these below.

And it's impossible for Harvey to tear his face with the God-giver for the sake of a few of their minions.

And Lin Xu didn't want to look for trouble.

So he threw out a wad of banknotes, all of which had just been aggregated by nanobots.

The wad of bills fell to the ground in front of the tax collector.

I don't know if Lin Xu did it on purpose, the banknotes were scattered all over the place, and he had to pick them up one by one if he wanted to.

"Take it, we're not here to get in trouble, but we don't like to be asked for trouble either." After Lin Xu finished speaking, he left with a few people.

And looking at the banknotes scattered all over the ground, or taxes, the tax officer's face was blue and white for a while.

The people who were still watching immediately dispersed, as if they were afraid that the tax officer would be used as a punching bag.

And Lin Xu didn't walk far, there was a small man, his legs were unusually thick, he could step out a long way in one step, and he didn't know what race of youth found him.

"This gentleman, this gentleman, are you here to guide you?" The young man said with a flattering smile on his face.

"How do you know?" Lin Xu said curiously.

"Hehe, you are a God-giver, and you just said that you are here to find someone, not a God-given person, but who are you looking for. I know who is guiding the way, do you need me to show you the way? It's just that I might need a little pay. The young man said cautiously.

"Okay, then you lead the way." Lin Xu nodded.

Although Sai Donggu said before that the guide is easy to find, and in various settlements, it is completely public, but Lin Xu didn't expect it to be so easy.

As soon as I arrived at the place, an insider took the initiative to send it to the door.

As for paying or something, Lin Xu didn't care at all, anyway, it was copied by nanobots, and there were as many as they wanted.

In this way, under the leadership of the young man, several people walked outside the docking place of the spaceship.

Along the way, the young man was still introducing the scenic spots along the way to Lin Xu, like a serious and responsible tour guide.

"Sir, would you like a ride? It's a long way from the tavern that Mr. Guide, frequents, but I know a driver who can serve several people all the way for a small fee. As soon as he stepped out of the spaceship's docking, the young man continued to do business.

Obviously, the driver should also give him a commission.

"No problem, but can so many of us sit down?" Lin Xu didn't mind this kind of trivial matter.

I even admired his hard-working attitude.

"Of course, he has a very spacious hovercar, which is very clean inside, and will never stain the clothes of gentlemen and ladies." The young man smiled happily.

In this way, soon a hovercar stopped in front of several people, and it was obvious that it was not a new car, and it was even very old.

But the inside is really clean.

Even Nan Zhu didn't mind, his big tail would get dirty.

Several people got into the car and made their way into the Harvey settlement.

The road is followed by a variety of shacks, then a number of beautifully decorated buildings, which continue as you go.

It is not known whether a few buildings were built in the shack area, or whether some shacks were built in the building complex.

Finally, we arrived at the tavern that the youth had spoken.

Or maybe it's more appropriate to say it's a clubhouse.

As soon as he got out of the car, Lin Xu saw the luxuriously decorated gate, as well as several bunny girls standing at the door who were greeting guests.

That's right, it's the bunny girl, a beautiful girl of all races, dressed like a rabbit, with a small tail behind her long ears, where she receives guests.

These teenage girls come in all skin tones, and even red-skinned, but they are all good-looking.

As soon as he saw Lin Xu who got out of the car, his eyes lit up, and he was about to rush up.

But then I saw Miss Qiu, Nan Candle, Mu Xiyue and Lu Yao who got off the car with Lin Xu.

Suddenly, the little rabbits hesitated again, not knowing if they would anger the female guests if they went up again.

"The guide is here?" Lin Xu looked at the luxury hotel in front of him, his expression was a little strange, didn't you mean the tavern.

So this is a tavern?

"Yes, Mr. Guide has a private room here all year round, and he lives here all year round." The young man hurriedly said.

And a few little rabbits who didn't dare to step forward, after hearing the young man's words, their faces changed.

"You're here for a guide?" A little rabbit asked hesitantly.

"Yes, these God-givers." The young man immediately introduced with honor.

"However, the guide has just been taken away by Lord Harvey." The little rabbit said, and quietly pointed to his head.

Lin Xu looked up and saw that a big hole had been broken in the top of this hotel building.

Obviously, the capture that the little rabbit said was not so peaceful.

"Why, how is it possible, is Lord Harvey and the God-Giver going to war?" The young man's face turned pale in an instant.

Especially when I think that I just led the way for a god-giver, I am a small person, and I don't want to get involved.

So he didn't care about Lin Xu, and even Lin Xu didn't care if he hadn't paid yet, he turned around and ran.

Money is as important as life.

PS: Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a recommended ticket
