Soul Mechanic [Interstellar] - Chapter 98
[Pretending to be Federal President]
Lu Xun took the aircraft and landed on the ground, followed by three little ladybugs.
The little bugs saw their mother very excited, and subconsciously wanted to crawl to her mother’s legs to act like a baby. Then I thought, they have officially become the pets of war, and their fighters are in front, and they have to work hard to make a mature pair. Look like.
Besides, the ladybug mother, seeing that her sons had their own soldiers at a young age, she couldn’t help but think of the scumbag of the mechanical star, and she immediately felt exasperated.
I have to say that the worms have quite a lot of inner play.
On the human side, the atmosphere is not relaxed.
When Lu Xun saw Chu Qingtian and Mu Qiu return safely, he couldn’t help but heaved a sigh of relief, “It’s fine if it’s okay.”
Chu Qingtian said solemnly: “We did not find any mechas or spaceships trailing on our way back, but the other party may also have turned on the invisible device.”
Lu Xun shook his head, “It should have nothing to do with you. The opponent’s spacecraft was discovered in the stratosphere. It is estimated that it has been lurking here for a long time, but it seems that there is no plan to invade – after the alarm went off, their first reaction was to leave.”
“Leave?” Chu Qingtian frowned, “Have you sent someone to chase?”
“The second team has caught up.” Lu Xun’s tone is not easy. Most of the guards on the Treeren planet are ordinary people without professional training. The professionalism and self-protection ability of those in the Tianlong team are not the same. , “Do you need me to follow?”
Chu Qingtian pondered for a moment, and finally shook his head.
The protective net of the planet Treant adopts the advanced technology provided by Ironclad Star, which is currently the highest level in the entire Federation, and it can be described as easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Nowadays, there are not only all of their industries on the planet, but also four precious guides. No matter what the purpose of the other party or what strategy they have, staying here is the wisest choice.
After a short period of time, the second team sent back a message, “Report to Captain Lu that the “Galaxy Daily” logo is hung on the opposing spacecraft. It seems that it should be the journalist of that journal-do you want to continue chasing?”
When Chu Qingtian heard the words “Yinhe Daily”, the corners of his mouth twitched visibly.
As everyone knows, “Yinhe Daily” is the gossip center of the whole federation. The newsletter does not know the background, and it takes pleasure in reporting the gossip news of various big people.
What’s more peculiar is that the editorial department of the “Yinghe Daily” focused on a wave of reporters who didn’t even want their lives for gossip. In order to dig out fierce materials, they would do everything-wherever the attention is high, they will go wherever they are, almost nothing. They can’t find news, and they are not afraid of being killed-they are simply working with their lives.
In order to get the first-hand information on the planet Treeman, hiding in the stratosphere for ten and a half days is a trivial matter to them.
Li Yan grew up in the imperial capital, and he naturally heard the name of this home appliance magazine. At this time, he could not help but breathe a sigh of relief, “If it were them, I probably don’t need to worry. At most, I would just take a few photos and record a few videos. .”
It is correct to say that. However, thinking of the owner behind the “Yinghe Daily”, Chu Qingtian’s mood can’t be relaxed anyway.
Lu Xun looked at the three red worms around him, also showing a thoughtful expression.
——
Three days have passed since the suspected secret photo was taken, and there was no relevant report on the Internet-I don’t know if the other party intends to “see you on Monday” or is holding a big move.
No matter what, Mu Qiu didn’t want to wait any longer.
Now that he discovered the location of Gray Castle and exchanged information with Li Yan, Mu Qiu was almost certain that his parents were there.
Since the last time, he has never received any news from Mu Changhong, and Mu Qiu’s heart is getting more and more nervous, and he even wakes up frequently in his dreams.
Chu Qingtian looked at such a guide very worried, and after discussing with Dahl and others, he put the plan to dive into the small planet zone again on the agenda.
The last time he and Mu Qiu went hurriedly without telling everyone else, they were lucky to be able to have no risk in the end.
Now that he has been stunned, the other party must have taken precautions, so he must make perfect preparations to go again this time.
Chu Qingtian was thinking about summoning the core members of the Tianlong team to form a mecha team – of course, he didn’t plan to fight against the opponent, as long as he could confuse their sight and give him a chance to sneak into the castle.
Mu Qiu got inspiration from Pumpkin and drew all night’s drawings. He wanted to try to add an invisible shield to the Tianlong. This is a technology that surpasses the current level of the Federation. It is a product of the second-level civilization. When the shield is opened At that time, the entire spacecraft can be invisible.
However, the manufacture of this shield requires a special material, which comes from the corpses of certain natural dead Zerg, not only rare, but also illegible.
Fortunately, they have a matchmaker.
Pumpkin’s father Jin Jiaren specially reminded that the matchmaker’s greatest talent is to find the worm mound.
In the vast interstellar space, there are many hidden places, where the corpses of generations of Zerg are buried, so it is called “worm mound”.
The corpses of the Zerg who can be buried in the worm grave are not decayed for thousands of years. They are the best materials for making weapons, mechas or spaceships. These Zergs are strong before they are alive, and they are still ready to make contributions to future generations after they die.
However, it is not just a zerg who can find the location of the worm grave. Ordinary zerg can only foresee the magical passage when they are about to die. This is an innate talent, even if you work hard. I can’t learn.
It just so happens that the matchmaker is the lucky worm in a million.
——
Just as everyone was planning to find the Wormstone modified spacecraft, Simon suddenly received an inexplicable video.
This video was recorded in advance. Mr. Maggie repeatedly reminded everyone including Chu Qingtian and Lu Xun that they must stay on the tree-man planet at this time and ensure the safety of the guides, no matter what happens. Don’t leave—especially don’t return to the Draco constellation.
Time seemed to be in a hurry, and Mr. Maggie only hurriedly said a few words, repeatedly reminding them not to leave, the video was interrupted.
In Simon’s memory, Mr. Maggie has always been gentle and elegant, even when he was left out or angered by Major General Wolfe, he still maintained his demeanor – this was the first time that he looked nervous.
When Simon dialed back, Mr. Maggie’s phone number couldn’t be dialed anyway-it wasn’t that no one answered, but that there was no phone number at all.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and no one could guess what had happened, because there was no warning before that.
Lu Xun took Simon’s shoulders and calmly calmed the flustered guide, “Contact Major General Wolfe to try, he may know what happened.”
Simon almost tremblingly clicked on Major General Wolf’s communication number, and fortunately, it was connected.
However, it was only connected, and there was no prompt of “empty number” or “out of service area”, but no one answered.
Butler Dill, no one answered.
Hörmann Wolf, the line is busy, the line is always busy-this can only mean that Hörmann is in multi-line mode at this time, and there are too many people to plug in!
This thoughtful sentinel may be worried that his brother is in a hurry. In his busy schedule, he asked his guide to send a short message with only eight words-“Everything is fine, please cherish it.”
Simon didn’t want to try any more, and didn’t want to wait any longer.
“I want to return to the imperial capital.” The guide, who has always been elegant and easy-going, is firm and decisive at this time.
Lu Xun pursed his lips, showing a look of disapproval.
Mu Qiu directly took Simon’s packing hand and said, “Have you forgotten what Uncle Maggie said just now? He asked us to stay here and we can’t go anywhere!”
“But I have to go back–I have to know what happened!” Simon could no longer suppress his mixed feelings of worry and anxiety, and his eyes blushed instantly, “Qiuqiu, I can’t wait here…”
Mu Qiu still held Simon’s wrist, but he couldn’t say anything to stop him anyway–to be honest, if it were him at this moment, he would definitely not be waiting here confused.
Lu Xun pulled Simon’s hand over and said decisively: “I will accompany you.”
Simon looked at him in surprise.
Others could hardly conceal the look of surprise—Lu Xun has always been the most cautious and rule-abiding. Unexpectedly, not only did he not stop Simon, he even decided to go with him.
Lu Xun shook Simon’s hand and said solemnly: “Only in this way can you feel at ease, and I can feel at ease, right?”
Unexpectedly, with Lu Xun’s support, Simon not only did not immediately agree, but hesitated instead-he didn’t want Lu Xun to take risks with him anyway.
At this moment, Li Yan walked over with the terminal and said solemnly: “Look at this.”
A familiar face appeared on the virtual screen. This face Mu Qiu had seen closely, it was Magher’s identity in front of the public-Federal President Ward Dier.
In this ordinary morning, the Federal President announced a series of major orders.
Among them, the most striking is the news that Lu Zechen, the current head of the Bureau of Land Management, was dismissed for abusing his power for personal gain.
Everyone was taken aback-isn’t Lu Zechen a staunch presidential party? How could you suddenly be put on such a hat, and even the president personally announces his dismissal?
“He is not Uncle Maggie!” Simon stared at the middle-aged man on the screen, almost hatefully said, “He is not!”
Chu Qingtian and Lu Xun looked at each other, showing clear expressions-if this person is not the real Mr. President, everything can be justified.
Mu Qiu was a little puzzled, and couldn’t help asking, “Simon, how did you see it?”
The face on the screen is exactly the same as what you see on the Federal News every day—not to mention, do anyone really dare to pretend to be the president?
“Remember the fusion potion I told you about?” Simon explained very calmly, “Since Uncle Maggie can eat it, so can everyone else.”
Li Yan said: “As far as I know, there is a lot of uncertainty about the appearance of fusion potions. Different people may not have the same appearance even if they take the exact same formula.”
“Is it possible… The Academy of Sciences or other research institutes have already made an upgraded version of the Fusion Potion? Maybe you can become a specific person after taking it.” The reason why Mu Qiu has such an idea is ultimately because he believes in Simon .
He not only believed in Simon’s judgment, but also in Mr. Maggie’s personality. He was definitely not the kind of person who gave up his partner for his rights.
Simon heard Mu Qiu’s words, his eyes moistened instantly.
He looked at Mu Qiu, and seemed to have made a lot of determination, and said emotionally: “Thank you, Qiu Qiu, thank you for believing in me… I can tell at a glance whether it is Uncle Maggie, because he is, he is mine–“
At this moment, the picture on the screen turned, and the military department’s work report appeared.
Compared with the sensation of Lu Zechen’s removal, the news of Major General Wolfe’s suspension of work and recuperation seems much more commonplace.
The Secretariat of Major General Wolfe’s Department is suspended from work, and there are eight out of ten days without going to work. In fact, there is not much difference whether it is suspended or suspended.
However, this news caused an uproar in this small conference room.
First, Mr. Magher lost contact, and then Lu Zechen was dismissed. On this basis, Major General Wolfe’s suspension was almost the last straw that crushed the camel, causing everyone to lose their composure.
