The Star Knight - Chapter 105

Time VI shuttles through the ancient starry sky, just like a traveler full of curiosity in the boundless starry river. The stars in the distance emit sixteen river like light belts, which radiate the boundless light in the lonely and far-reaching universe.

Broken ice flew from 17 clusters of huge icy stars, following a clear path to the giant star in the center. Opal looked up, staring out of the window at this magnificent spectacle.

Raymond whistled and sat on the sofa, with two other people beside him, who were on this ride.

“It’s beautiful,” opal said

“Hmmm.” Raymond looked up and said, “it’s estimated that it will take at least hundreds of millions of years for these ice crystals to be completely absorbed by the stars.”

“Fanto is a diamond star.” A man with a cigarette was sitting in front of the sofa playing cards: “I guess IRC doesn’t have enough money, so I often dig diamonds out of the ground and sell them.”

His companion, a blonde man, said, “save yourself. Diamonds are no longer valuable in ancient times.”

“At least it can be used as a point prism, as well as a lens for a light shock gun.” The man with the cigarette said, “Raymond, look at your?”

“Two K’s.” Raymond shine.

“Three with two.” Another man said.

“Oh -” Raymond and the man with the cigarette were wrestling at the same time.

“Victor.” Raymond said, “you’re not a good thing.”

Victor, the winner called Victor, laughed and put away a small pile of glittering gold coins. Raymond got up and said, “I’ll take a shower.”

“Otto What’s it called? Come and play, kid

“It’s opal.” Ramon said before entering the room, “don’t bully him, or you’ll be miserable.”

Opal looked at him, got down from the swivel chair and took a bottle of pineapple wine. The man with the cigarette squinted and said, “children can’t drink.”

“It’s just fruit wine.” Opal showed him and said, “don’t be busy collecting chips. How much will Raymond lose to you? Take it out and leave it

Victor and the man with the cigarette both laughed. Opal said, “your name is thangkaine, aren’t you?”

The man with a cigarette in his mouth said, “Don Kahn, you can call me Thangka.”

Opal nodded. Victor began to deal cards. Thangka took out a gold coin and flipped it. He said, “I’ll bet on this. It’s a commemorative coin of 3300 years since the founding of the lion star Autonomous Prefecture. There’s the head of the emperor carltes on it. Here you see…”

Opal said, “very well. Leave it. It will be mine later.”

Victor began to play public cards, and Thangka said, “thank you for letting us take your boat.”

“Oh, No Opal received the hand card, looked at the card and said, “that’s Ramon’s father gave him, but you’ve obviously won the ticket.”

They laughed together.

“What do you bet as a chip?” asked Thangka

“Bet…” “Our little robots, plus time VI,” opal said

Two people:…. ”

Opal: I never lie. Here you are. You win. We will transfer the ownership of the spaceship when we get to the destination Said E7, small Q together on the table, Raymond bath out, Thangka said: “your partner to use the spacecraft to bet with us.”

Raymond said, “he never lies.”

Victor took out all the commemorative coins and said, “I’ll bet with you.”

With his cigarette in his mouth, Thangka looked at opal maliciously and finally said, “interesting, I like it very much.”

“It’s something adventurers do all the time,” Victor said. “It looks like you’re born with a king’s Wharf.”

Raymond laughed: “didn’t Murray lose the whole adventurers’ Union to his competitors? That’s a big gamble. Deal the cards. ”

Victor was a little nervous and began to deal cards, but opal was a little absent-minded. He took the card and asked, “what is this?”

“K’s are celebrities.” Thangka’s psychological quality was obviously much higher than that of his companion named victor. He said, “guess?”

“Well I don’t know any of them. ” Opal picked up the peach K on the table and looked at it.

“He is Azeroth.” Victor said, “it wasn’t long since I died.”

“And this one?” Opal pointed to a club J in the public card.

“Levi.” Thangka said, “square J is the wind.”

“Ah -” opal nodded slowly.

Raymond said: “I just got a plum K, guess who it is?”

Opal said, “emperor kartes.”

“Oh, No With his cigarette in his mouth, Thangka looked thoughtfully at his card, then glanced at Opal and said, “K is Marshal Lotman.”

“And who is square K?” “Emperor or Pope,” opal said

“Do you have a cube K?” Raymond asked.

Opal said, “no, I guess it’s the emperor.”

“Yes, he is square K Victor said softly, “the Pope does not allow the emperor to ride on his head. Guess who the Pope is?””I don’t think these retro cards are real people.” Opal said, “where are the J’s? I guess one of them is the Pope

Thangka grinned slyly and picked up the two jokers on the side.

The big trump card is a gold elder holding a scepter, while the small trump card is a dark knight with a sword in front of him.

“Colin.” Muttered opal.

Several people nodded slowly. It seemed that opal was more interested in the set of cards than the winning card itself. He wanted to turn it over, but was restrained by Thangka and said, “it’s not finished yet.”

After Victor dealt the last card, opal lit the card and said, “add the public card to form three K’s and a pair of J, Fullhouse.”

There was a loud noise, and Thangka fell down.

Raymond laughed. He came to take the gold and touched opal’s head.

It was three hours before we arrived at the king’s Wharf. Raymond picked up his cards and chatted in the boat. Thangka won, but also can afford to lose, a moment later, no longer sad, helpless to shake his head, he went to the refrigerator to get the reserve wine of opal and Raymond.

“The desert fruit of the Sphinx.” “It’s worth a lot of money,” said Thangka

“Last time a farmer gave it to opal.” “He needs a singing plant to set up the farm and pay attention to the intruders,” Raymond said

“Plants with vocal cords.” “There are many cities of Odes,” Victor said

“Yes.” Raymond nodded.

Opal sat on one side, flipped through the cards, took out a spade J, and asked, “who is this one?”

“Caesar, the head of the four princes of the meteorite legion of corolin.” Raymond said, and picked out the spade K to throw on the table, said: “this?”

“Spades are the biggest.” Opal said suspiciously, “is this man so powerful?”

“Yes.” Thangka nodded and said, “only four of this card are related to people in the dark age. This card, this card, this card And this one. ”

Thangka picked out spades, hearts, and kings.

“The top four cards in the universe.” “Another special way to play in the game,” said Thangka

Pope delamon, Colin, knight on spade and Azeroth.

“This man’s name is horius.” Victor took a look at it and said, “the God of the dark age died for the king’s Wharf. In his memory, they put him in the universe card.”

“And Azeroth?” Raymond said.

Vicedo said: “the people of liexing worship him very much. You know that the Daewoo Aviation Association and the mercenary Union are the only two free organizations with the longest history in the universe, so I guess the people who make this deck of cards also recognize his status.”

“Where are the Q’s?” Opal then unfolded four Q’s one by one. From left to right, they were spades, hearts, clubs and diamonds.

“Natasha, Queen of the Sphinx; innI, Queen of the Empire; rafina Heinrich, the voice of history; and thea plante, the little woman.”

Opal turned the card to the back and said to himself, “what do these two women do?”

“Thea is the richest woman in the universe.” “The punes chamber of Commerce’s risk takers have a rating similar to that of strong star, but changed to playing card like A10 and j, Q, K ratings,” Raymond said.

Opal began to feel very unaccustomed to this place. He only felt that it was too loose. There was no teamwork, no comrades in arms, and no definite relationship of ownership. However, after getting familiar with this truly neutral territory, he suddenly found it interesting.

There are quite a lot of knowledgeable people among them. These people know a lot of rumors and anecdotes in the universe. People can’t be judged by their appearance. Maybe a dirty young man is a genius of a famous airline company, or a gray haired old gentleman just drank with the boss of a big business group not long ago Alcohol.

Adventurers control a world that mercenaries can’t touch. They avoid unnecessary fighting and use their brains more than strength. The title page of the adventurer’s manual says: wisdom is your only weapon.

This is in opposition to the mercenary code of living for combat. Adventurers are more cunning and circuitous, and are used to solving problems by means of tact rather than by fighting.

The grand astronautics association is also a competitor of liexing. However, limited by the loose organization conditions of adventurers, they can’t carry out too many difficult and high-level entrustments, which makes liexing invincible in many tasks. After all, adventurers dare not challenge the tasks given by mercenaries with more than ten people.

They can only explore, find, and discover class delegates within their capabilities. After registration, a free person who has passed the certification of no criminal record will receive a separate card medal. This card is printed with points and decors, similar to the mercenaries’ F to SS level, and the promotion points are obtained through entrusted evaluation. There are 13 levels in the whole system of adventurers. Each level is divided into four levels: spades, hearts and clubs, and diamonds.

From level a to level 5, they are called preparation personnel, while 6 to 10 are certified formal adventurers. Adventurers from J have entered the field of advanced exploration. They have their own specialties, and have close connections between the stars. Occasionally, they will take care of the younger generation. However, it is not like the mercenaries on the burning star who will pay their lives for unknown comrades in arms.Adventurers are more in pursuit of retro, art and life. They always seem to be leisurely to get involved in trouble. When they see that the momentum is not right, they will leave in time. If they have partners entrusted, they will play cards, gamble and chat on the spaceship.

They like playing cards and gambling very much, which seems to be the only tradition of the whole Association. When they join the association, they will get a set of cards first. Behind this set of cards, there are ways to deal with unexpected problems, which are often some proverbs handed down from ancient times. It is undeniable that the famous sayings of ancient philosophers can indeed solve almost all problems in the world.

They also like to chat very much. Often one topic can cover everything from the plant characteristics of a certain planet to the whole universe, and then to the wife of an executive in a gene company who slapped an executive last night.

Opal was not old enough to apply to become an adventurer, but Raymond was OK. So Raymond got the qualification certificate and took opal to adventure. Opal wanted to hear more about the adventures. So whenever he met the adventurers who asked to take a convenient boat in the outer space, he never refused their request. Some of them were cunning like foxes, and others were serious In fact, there are old people and young people. All of them have one common characteristic: curiosity.

Their curiosity is very strong. Maybe this is the most basic element for the people who join the Daewoo Exploration Association. They often have a lot of different opinions after exchanging a question. The fantastic ideas are like crossing the sky. After leaving the spaceship, they go their own ways. They say hello when they meet and say goodbye when they leave. It’s like they have never established any friendship.

Opal felt that he had almost everything in his life. His days in the king’s Wharf often made him think of liexing unconsciously, but his friends there had no memory of him any more, just like things in his previous life.

However, he still sent an anonymous letter to Xun, in which he said that he should be careful. Although Colin promised that he would not move liexing again in a short period of time, maybe 100 years or 200 years, many things are uncertain.

Every day in the king’s Wharf, he lived a very new life. Sometimes opal thought, are these people lonely in their hearts? For himself, at least, the process of constantly satisfying curiosity and knowing more can not completely compensate for his emotional loneliness.

But fortunately he had Raymond.

“Welcome back to the chakra star.” At the communication station, a woman’s voice sounded: “it’s sunny at King’s Wharf today.”

Raymond: home

After several people packed up, Victor said, “goodbye, both of you.”

Thangka languidly picked up his cigarette and said, “goodbye, little guy.”

Time VI opened the back cabin in the sun, several adventurers said goodbye to each other, opal jumped up, picked on Raymond’s back, let him carry it, and went to the association to repay the Commission.
