Chapter 217: The Betrayed Follower (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
"Is that where the legendary Worm Emperor's Nest is located? Do you think we'll have a chance to meet the Bug Emperor? Asari. A richly dressed man standing in front of the porthole looked at the steady galaxy of three stars that was getting closer and closer in the distance, and his eyes were full of light.
"I know you admire the Worm Emperor, but Mr. Lear, under normal circumstances, the envoy team is not received by the Worm Emperor, but is received by members of the Joint Council authorized by His Majesty the Worm Emperor." The man, known as Asari, stood behind Lil and explained to him.
Obviously, Lil's status is higher than Asari's, but when it comes to the professionalism of communicating with the Zerg, Asari is more proficient.
So if nothing else, this Mr. Lear is eighty percent parachuted in from above.
"That's a shame." Lil's expression was a little regretful, like a little fan brother who couldn't see his idol.
However, he soon collected his mood and got down to business.
Even if it is parachuted from above, the business has to be passed.
After all, what we have to do this time is very important.
"How's today's routine check-up? There's nothing wrong with that thing, right? Lil asked with a serious expression.
"No problem, everything works." Asari nodded in confirmation.
"Very well, but according to the rules, I have to confirm it myself." Lil nodded at Asari, emphasizing the rules.
The meaning is simple, it's not that I don't trust you, it's that the rules are like this, and I have to follow them.
After all, Lil also knows that he is parachuted, so he can give a little more respect to the people in front of him, and he can carry out his own work.
"Of course, I'll take you." Asari is colorful.
So the two of them walked towards the interior of the spaceship without any retinue.
This is a dedicated passageway, and the only one leading to the core of the ship, where no rest of the crew will appear.
Even so, Lil verified his identity several times along the way, and only then did he enter the very core of the ship, where he saw the object that had been properly stored.
After carefully checking and confirming that it was correct, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief and left the core of the spaceship.
It's about to arrive at the Worm Emperor's lair, and this thing must not go wrong, otherwise both of them will definitely die.
Whatever Lear's background is, it's useless in this matter, because the thing they're escorting is so important.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is their entire race, the core of cooperation with the Zerg.
"According to the Zerg, the experiment is almost complete, and the plan has finally reached the final step, and I don't know what the outcome will be." Perhaps because he was in a relaxed mood, Asari couldn't help but blurt out.
"Don't worry, it will definitely succeed, I believe that His Majesty the Great Insect Emperor will not be worse than humans." Lil said with confidence in the Worm Emperor.
"That's right, His Majesty the Insect Emperor is omnipotent, he must be able to." Asari realized that he had just said the wrong thing and quickly remedied.
While the two of them were discussing the Worm Emperor and the great plan, they didn't notice that in the starry sky, someone was observing their spaceship on a small spaceship that had deliberately disappeared.
"Really human followers? It doesn't look like it's captured by the Zerg, it's more like being escorted by the Zerg again, and it looks like it's on good terms with the Zerg, do they know what the Zerg did? Nan Zhu looked like a big fire, pointing to the kilometer-long spaceship in the distance.
"Calm down, even if their ancestors are really human followers, but after so many years, by the time they reach their generation, they will be at most descendants of human followers, so there is no need to react so much." Compared with a few people, Lin Xu is the calmest one.
"That's not going to work, and if you really want to say that, wouldn't the spirit clan you met in the last river system not count as human followers, but only as descendants of followers?" The south candle indicates that it is unacceptable.
"As long as I have not lost my glory, I will admit that they are followers of humanity. As for those who have discarded their glory, they are at most descendants, and I will not recognize their status as followers. Lin Xu said with a smile.
Indeed, whether it is a human follower or just a descendant of a follower depends on whether Lin Xu, a human being, recognizes the identity of their follower.
When Lin Xu didn't admit it, they were just descendants of their followers.
"But there's something interesting on this ship." Lin Xu then said.
"What's that?" South Candle was puzzled.
Even Alyssa's eyes widened, because what Lin Xu thought was interesting must be very interesting, and she liked interesting things.
"A high-dimensional item, I just don't know if it was left by humans back then." Lin Xu said.
"High-dimensional items? They transported high-dimensional items to the Worm Emperor's brood? What do you want to do? In an instant, Nan Zhu had already made up eight hundred scripts in his mind.
"Didn't you say that the Zerg's experiment was about to be completed? Could it be that the descendants of these human followers are transporting high-dimensional objects in connection with the experiments to be completed? Lu Yao guessed.
"They don't really want to study the secrets of human ascension, do they? However, just relying on a bunch of imposter humans, plus a high-dimensional item, you want to study the ascension? How is this possible. Alyssa felt that this possibility was too, like a child who saved a rocket and landed on the moon directly.
"Let's go, let's go and see, and maybe we'll find some new clues. If this group does cooperate with the Zerg, they must know something. Lin Xu made a decision.
So the crowd immediately went into action.
In fact, it was very simple, Lin Xu waved his hand and put the Skylark into the carry-on space, and then took Miss Qiu, Mu Xiyue, Nan Candle and Lu Yao plus Yarissa, a total of six people directly in the universe and opened a space passage casually.
Then the six of them stepped into it, and they went straight into the kilometer-long spaceship.
It can be said that it is simple and outrageous, but for several people it is a basic exercise.
Inside the spaceship, there are a large number of areas that require authentication, as well as a large number of surveillance cameras.
Once it is discovered that several people are not members of the ship's interior, the alarm will sound every minute.
However, as several people entered the spacecraft, a large number of nanobots had also poured into the spacecraft, and in the blink of an eye, some alarm devices and surveillance cameras had been modified in the locations of several people.
So the infiltration of several people was silent, and no one noticed it at all.
Immediately, the nanobots began to spread and invade the core control room of the spaceship, while Lin Xu and the others spun around in the spaceship.
From time to time, there were staff members in the spaceship, passing through the corridor, and they all felt a little strange when they saw Lin Xu and his party looking left and right.
But no one suspected that they had just crept in.
Just kidding, this is in space, and the spaceship has a complex safety seriousness, if it had been infiltrated, it would have been discovered a long time ago.
At most, everyone thinks that a few people are blind and have never seen them, but there are thousands of passengers on the spaceship, and it is impossible for everyone to know them.
So at most, take a few more looks, and you'll be busy.
Lin Xu and the others wandered around the spaceship like this, and through the various facilities inside the spaceship, coupled with the reading of the database by the nanobots, they quickly cleared the approximate origin of this civilization.
This civilization, which calls itself the people of Dhaka, is said to have an ancient history as well as a splendid civilization.
However, the exact history is not recorded in the ship's database.
The origin of the suspected human follower badge on the ship is also not recorded in the database.
It's just that the history of the people of Dhaka is much older than the history of "humanity".
Of course, the "humans" here clearly refer to false humans, humans created by the Zerg.
The record shows that when the "human race" first rose, the Dhaka people gave a lot of help to the human race, and until now the Dhaka people are also the right-hand men of the human race.
Assist humanity in the fight against the Zerg in the starry sky.
It's just that those "humans" who are experimental subjects obviously don't know that their allies, the Dhaka, are actually secretly collaborators of the Zerg.
Even cooperated with the Zerg, and has been using "humans" as experiments.
"Why do I suddenly feel that these humans are a little pitiful?" Nan Zhu suddenly felt a little sympathetic to the "humans" created by the Zerg in this river system.
"yes, so the Zerg should be damned." A cold light flashed in Mu Xiyue's eyes, and there was sword light in the palm of her hand, as if she was about to cut someone.
"Oh, what kind of temper do you have to turn around and send it to the Zerg, don't scare me." Nan Zhu hurriedly hid behind Lin Xu, as if she was afraid that Mu Xiyue would not be able to restrain herself and directly sprinkle her anger on her.
Who knows, Arisa next to her has a bright eye.
"Why don't the two of us fight, I'm bored." Alyssa said eagerly.
"Alright, you two be honest, we're here." Lin Xu stopped the exchange between the two.
Several people had already made their way to the very core of the adjacent spaceship, but unfortunately, there was no way to continue here.
"I can't get in, do you want to find another way?" Nan Zhu looked at Lin Xu.
"There's no need, just open it." Lin Xu said casually.
So Mu Xiyue, who had always swallowed the sword light in her palm, seemed to have suddenly found an outlet for her emotions, and the sword light in her hand blasted directly at the wall in front of her.
Even Arisa, who also wanted to make a move, was one step slower than her.
Angry Alyssa jumped straight to her feet.
With a bang, a large hole was opened in the wall.
Mu Xiyue's strength was still quite contained, so it did not destroy the rest of the spaceship's structure, but only made a big hole in the thick alloy wall.
Then several people entered it, and there was another wall in front of them, and this time Alyssa was quick and opened the wall directly.
Next is Mu Xiyue and Yarissa's you fight for me.
One by one, the walls were blasted open, and several people soon came to the core area of the spaceship, where the high-dimensional items were stored.
At this time, under the continuous forced demolition of several people, even with nanobots constantly helping to modify the program, the matter was still exposed.
"Strange, why is the ship shaking a little?" Lil sat across from Asari, drinking an ancient drink unique to the people of Dhaka.
Lil suddenly noticed that the surface of the drink in the cup was constantly rippling round and round.
Asari also felt strange, turned on the intelligent terminal on his wrist, and used the intelligent brain in the spacecraft to self-test the spacecraft.
The self-check was fine, but Asari, with years of experience, still found the problem.
"No, there is a situation, we have been invaded." Asari's face turned pale, and he stood up instantly.
"Invasion? How can it be? Lil's first reaction was disbelief, because this was an area very close to the Worm Emperor's nest, how could it be invaded here?
"Mr. Lear, I will lead the guards and personally inspect all the key areas, for your safety, please act with me." Asari said solemnly.
"Okay." Lil nodded immediately, although he thought it was impossible, he wouldn't joke with his life.
In any case, it is safest to stay under the protection of the guards.
In this way, the guards on the spaceship were divided into several teams, and when they began to check the key areas on the spaceship one by one, Lin Xu and the others had already arrived in front of the box containing high-dimensional items.
Just looking at that high-dimensional item, Lin Xu only felt speechless for a while.
Even more than Lin Xu, even Nan Candle, Mu Xiyue and Lu Yao were also speechless.
Because of that high-dimensional item, everyone is familiar with it, and Lu Yao used to be very commonly used.
Especially in the time that the house has been playing games for several years, Lu Yao is simply familiar with this thing.
That's a gamepad.
It's still the one commonly used by Lu Yao.
"Is this your one?" Nan Zhu also knew each other, so he asked Lu Yao curiously.
"How could it be mine, mine is still at home, it's just the same model." Lu Yao immediately waved his hand.
"So, the high-dimensional item they carefully transported is actually a gamepad? So what's the use of this thing? Nan Zhu said, walked over and took the game controller, and shook it back and forth.
Unfortunately, the gamepad didn't respond.
"Hey, hey, you're going to say something? You're a high-dimensional object, can you talk? Nan Candle said to the handle.
Unfortunately, the handle was still silent.
"Not everything that becomes a high-dimensional object will become a thinking and intelligent individual." Alyssa on the side couldn't stand it anymore, and said with a sigh.
"Huh? Doesn't it turn out that they can all talk? So what's the use of this thing? Nan Candle said and fiddled with the buttons on the gamepad, but nothing happened.
Until Lin Xu took the gamepad over, with a funny look on his face.
"Lord Lin Xu, what are you laughing at?" Nan Zhu said curiously.
"See? This controller used to seem to be just an ordinary gamepad, and there are signs of wear and tear on it. Lin Xu pointed out.
"Really, has this controller ever been used to play games before?" Nan Candle's eyes widened.
"Why not? Gamepads were originally used to play games, and it may be because they have been used too much by humans, for too long, so they have become high-dimensional items after humans ascend to the dimension. Lin Xu observed the gamepad and finally came to a conclusion.
"Then if you say that, I've also been played by Lord Lin Xu for a long time, why haven't I become a high-dimensional existence? It's not scientific. Nan Zhu said with a puzzled look.
So Lin Xu, who was still observing the game controller interestingly just now, his whole expression stiffened.
"As an existence recognized by humans, the family itself has high-dimensional characteristics, no different from high-dimensional items, how do you want to change?" Until Arissa complained unconcernedly.
Nan Zhu wanted to say something, but Mu Xiyue, whose face was flushed, stared at him deadly, and finally didn't say anything.
So everyone's attention finally returned to the gamepad.
"Does this handle have any special abilities?" Lu Yao asked Lin Xu.
"Maybe there's something special about how to use it, and we still need to study it." Lin Xu observed the handle from a high-dimensional perspective through a high-dimensional perspective, but he did not see the function of the handle for the time being.
And before a few people could figure out the handle, from the direction they broke through the big holes and broke in, the sound of dense footsteps came.
After discovering the core area of the spaceship, where the high-dimensional items were stored, was invaded, Asari and Lil, who were pale with fright, led the guards to rush over.
As soon as the two entered, they saw six people gathered together to study the handle.
Suddenly, a guard composed of hundreds of soldiers wearing power armor raised the thick barrel of the gun in his hand and aimed it at several people.
"Put down what you're holding, you goddamn bastards." Asari, whose face was flushed with anger, raised the pistol in his hand and aimed it at Lin Xudao, who was holding the handle in his forehand.
And his movements were like signals, hundreds of soldiers wearing power armor, the muzzle of the barrel in their hands began to charge, as if as long as Lin Xu didn't put down the things in his hand, he would shoot in the next second.
And at this time, it was Lil who was frightened.
"No, stop, don't shoot." Lil hurriedly stopped the soldiers.
After all, high-dimensional items are too precious, even if he knows that such an attack basically can't destroy high-dimensional items.
But he still didn't dare to try.
Because if a high-dimensional item is damaged a little, the consequences are not something he can bear.
And Lil's shouting also made Asari come to his senses in an instant, and he also hurried to stop the soldiers.
"Stop, put the muzzle down, don't shoot."
In this way, the power armor soldiers finally put down their guns.
Asari and Lil, whose faces were ugly, looked at Lin Xu and the others in the center of the room who had no fear in their eyes, if their eyes could kill, it was estimated that Lin Xu would have been killed hundreds of times by now.
"Who are you? Who sent you? ”
"I advise you to be obedient and capture, this spaceship is full of zergs outside, and you can't run away."
PS: Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a recommended ticket.
