Chapter 31: Partners and Burdens (Seeking Collection, Seeking Reading)

Lily: "So we're going to get the dreadnought now?" ”

Wang Chao and Ni Meow shook their heads together: "No, no, no!" ”

Wang Chao: "That's the long-term goal. Let's solve the problem at hand first. We have enough helium three to get out of New Eden's sphere of influence, but we're left with just a little bit of helium. So we have to solve the problem of helium three first. ”

Nimeow looked at him, "I guess you happen to have an old friend who can solve this problem." ”

Chao Wang: "Yes, I know of a retired bounty hunter who established a settlement on a planet on the edge of the New Eden civilization and enjoyed a life of disarmament. ”

Nimeow: "He's just right to mine helium-three?" If there is such a place, there will definitely be pirates, and where there is helium-three, there will either be military contractors, pirates, or trade transit points with strong local armed forces. ”

"You're talking about the general situation." Wang Chao paused, "And the current situation is that only I know the hermitage of that senior, I will secretly go to him to add helium three, and bring him daily necessities by the way, the place he chose lacks some minerals and can't build a complete production line, so I can only send him a lot of things." ”

Lily said excitedly: "I know this plot, in the ...... of "Galaxy Dead Redemption"

Wang Chao: "This is the real situation, don't mention the movie." ”

Lily pouted, "Okay." ”

Nimeow: "You've told the screenwriter of the movie, are you still the only one who knows the hermitage of this senior?" Even if there is, is that senior really reliable? You now have a huge bounty on your head, and you can buy an entire planet in New Eden's sphere of influence. ”

Wang Chao: "Don't worry, there is no quantum communication device there in the predecessor, he can only receive information through radio waves, and the radio waves sent from New Eden will take more than 900 years to reach the planet where the predecessor lives." ”

Lily asked curiously, "Can't you send that chrono packet?" It's the one you sent to the middleman after you saved me. ”

Wang Chao: "You have to know the coordinates of the other party. And this coordinate is not fixed, every star in the Milky Way is moving, you have to know the basic parameters of star motion......"

Wang Chao stopped suddenly.

Nimeow: "Did you forget to delete the star map on your ship?" ”

Wang Chao patted his head, because the strength of his prosthetic body was very strong, and this time his brain was buzzing, if it weren't for the fact that the brain melon was also an iron pimple, it was estimated that he would have a concussion.

Nimeow: "Don't worry, I'll help you format the computer data before I leave." Unless...... You also have a physical storage that is not connected to the Internet. ”

Wang Chao: "I have a star map in the dining cabinet. ”

In fact, it was not Wang Chao who deliberately forgot, he was the memories of the fused bounty hunter Wang Chao, and these memories needed some opportunities to trigger them before he could "recall" them. For example, when Ni Meow asked "Do you happen to know someone who can solve this problem" just now, Wang Chao remembered the reclusive senior.

And it was when Nimeth said, "Unless you have a physical memory that is not connected to the Internet", he remembered the existence of the star map.

The purpose of preparing the star map is to know where those old friends who can be relied on are in the extreme case that the ship's computer is formatted by hackers and you have lost your memory in battle.

Nimeow sighed, and Wang Chao knew that she must be checking the ship's destination right now.

So Wang Chao said: "Don't worry, I didn't jump directly to my seniors, even if it is the distance of a jump at the gray hound level, it is not enough." So, the good news is that we won't be caught right away at the end of the jump. ”

Lily: "Is there any bad news?" ”

Wang Chao: "The bad news is that if we can't go to the predecessors to add helium-three, within the range we can reach, we can add helium-three, and at the same time, there are only three cosmic sites outside the New Eden's sphere of influence." There must be quite a few bounty hunters heading to these places.

"After all, these sites are said to be outside the confines of New Eden, but there are no customs or border police that don't allow people to enter."

Yes, this is the characteristic of this era, the border police can only manage the core galaxy of civilization, and everyone can go wherever they want to go out of the core galaxy.

So even if you leave the confines of New Eden, the bounty hunters will still chase after you.

It's just that most of the bounty hunters, like Wang Chao, only operate in a specific area, and there are very few bounty hunters who often travel long distances in different areas controlled by forces.

In short, after leaving the controlled area of New Eden, there are fewer bounty hunters willing to chase after them.

In addition, leaving the area they are familiar with, the bounty hunters' ability to gather information will also deteriorate, and it will become difficult to find Wang Chao in such a large universe.

Nimeow: "So there must be a fierce battle at those sites?" Then we don't have many options, but to choose a site equipped with powerful weapons. ”

Lily tilted her head again: "Why?" ”

Wang Chao: "Because the site is protected by an armed fleet, the bounty hunters who chase us will not dare to make a mistake." The security forces at those sites are not familiar with New Eden, and most of the sites do not use New Eden's currency, and they will not move us because of the bounty order that came out of New Eden.

"Conversely, if a bounty hunter dares to fire directly around the site without greeting them, the garrison will immediately open fire in order to maintain the deterrent effect of the local garrison."

Lily: "The ...... Isn't it good? ”

Nimeow looked at her and sighed, "So you don't understand it at all." Encounters in space have no effect on you, at most the spaceship explodes and you will die. But after docking, taking you with a flesh man will have a great impact. ”

Lily thought for a moment and said, "Wouldn't it be better if I didn't leave the ship?" ”

"Nope." Wang Chao shook his head, "The security system of the spaceship, after all, is only a computer-controlled security system, and our spaceship is not equipped with strong artificial intelligence, so it will be hacked at any time." You're safest with us. ”

"If we have a lot of computing power on our spaceship, we can connect me to the computer and keep me in the spaceship." But our ship doesn't have such computing power. In addition, my support for Wang Chao on the spaceship is too affected by the local network hardware, so it is far better to follow him directly. ”

Lily looked back and forth at the two: "So? ”

"You'll have to follow us up to the space station." Wang Chao said the conclusion.

Nimeow gloated: "So you should be responsible for this burden." At best, if you are Wang Chao's external armor, you can at least increase his gunfight survival rate by one percent. ”

"No, there is no such thing." Wang Chao denied it.

Lily smiled, but the next moment her smile froze on her face.

Wang Chao: "It's less than one percent, and it's not even as good as the penetration resistance provided by the magnetic gas coating on my joints." ”
