MTL - Inheriting a Desolate Star-Chapter 36 036

The thick metal door made a toothache hum when it opened. Dust was scattered and scattered, as if it was about to collapse in the next moment. Amidst the humming that crushed the nerves of the brain, there was suddenly another gunshot. Zhao Lan kept staring at the door until the slit was completely stretched into a **** mouth. She froze for a moment, looking down at the old-fashioned gun in her hand—she didn't pull the trigger.

Beidou counterattacked as soon as the bullet flew out. She stretched out her right hand to hold the bullet, her movements were as light as picking a flower. When she let go of her right palm, the deformed bullet fell to the ground with a bang, and at the same time she fired a shot at the "attacker".

This change was completed in an instant, and when Wei Qu, Zhao Lan and the others came to their senses, one of their partners holding a gun had already fallen on his back to the ground, not knowing whether he was alive or dead. Wei Qu and Zhao Lan became nervous all of a sudden. After the nerves were tense, their consciousness not only did not wake up, but became trance.

"Surrender."

The gentle sound is not as cold and impersonal as the electronic sound. It passed through the dead silence like lead and iron, and penetrated into the auditory organs of Wei Qu, Zhao Lan and the others.

"Freedom, light." Zhao Lan murmured, seemingly close in front of her eyes, but also as far away as several galaxies away. She was the first to recover, and dropped her weapon as soon as she let go. As long as there is someone, even if it is a star thief, there is room for maneuver. They have stayed in the dark and cold space for too long, and they need to get out of this cage. "I surrender!" Zhao Lan raised her voice, and completely pulled back the spirits of the soulless teammates from the far side.

"Zhao Lan, you—" Before Wei Qu finished speaking, Zhao Lan kicked him hard.

Although Ning Buyi said a word, she didn't enter Zhao Lan's field of vision, but stayed in the corridor with her back against the cold wall. It wasn't until Beidou entered the main control room and "disarmed successfully" that she raised her eyebrows and cast a glance at Hua Zhuoyu who was on the side.

When the boots stepped on the ground, they left a series of noises, which I kept thinking about in the silent corridor.

A group of people in the main control room were chased away by Beidou, crouching in a corner with their heads in their arms. When the sound of approaching footsteps came, Zhao Lan couldn't hold back, and raised his eyes to glance. It was this look that made her horrified, and she couldn't help but blurted out: "Judge?!" When she shouted, other people who still had strength raised their heads.

Hua Zhuoyu looked down at Zhao Lan, and said slowly, "Do you recognize me?"

Zhao Lan's heart sank back into her chest, and she said in a hoarse voice, "I've seen the photos." She guessed that those who might have arrived at Desolate Star No. 1 included star thieves, adventurers, the Ning family, and rescuers... She thought of all kinds of things. Maybe, it's just that I didn't expect to see the real presiding judge here. Citizens who also belong to Daxia must abide by the laws of Daxia, they... are safe! Thinking of this, the tense nerves relaxed, and Zhao Lan couldn't help but feel a little more relaxed and smiling, "We are explorers of the Alliance of Civilizations."

"Alliance of Civilizations?" Ning Buyi asked confusedly.

Hua Zhuoyu turned his head to look at her, his eyebrows and eyes softened a bit, like spring water flowing.

"It's a civil free organization, similar to a ranger. On the one hand, it fights against the star bandit group, and on the other hand, it explores the ruins of civilization." Hua Zhuoyu explained, and the conversation suddenly changed, "Let's say that for now."

"Currently?" Ning Buyi grasped the point.

"It depends on where their leaders finally sit." Hua Zhuoyu said with a gentle smile.

The perplexity between Ning Buyi's brows and eyes was even stronger, but Hua Zhuoyu didn't answer any more, but focused on this group of people who called themselves "Alliance of Civilizations".

"Is it the photo that Xia Sang showed you?" Hua Zhuoyu seemed suspicious, but his words were filled with certainty.

The relaxed smile on Zhao Lan's face disappeared, and she looked up at Hua Zhuoyu, who was smiling but not smiling, and panic arose deep in her heart. The head of the Alliance of Civilizations is a secret that even the people in the Alliance may not know. Complicated emotions condensed into a hurricane in her heart, as if it was about to shatter her heart into pieces. She wanted to lie, but in panic, she was not sure whether the judge on the opposite side would see the clue, so she could only choose to remain silent.

Ning Buyi didn't know about the "Alliance of Civilizations", but he had heard of Xia Sang, the princess of the empire. In the novel, Xia Sang is delicate and timid, she is the answerer behind the two elder brothers, and in the end she is used as a bargaining chip to win over the forces Xia Tu needs. Now it seems that the characters created by the plot are also fake. It is inappropriate to say that the plot is a "backward version of the manual". It should be called "the outline of life in the hands of the elders". The submissive people will respond, while the rebellious people want to escape freely.

"The princess of the empire is the head of the Alliance of Civilizations?" Ning Buyi said "tsk" and said what Hua Zhuoyu hadn't said. It was related to the imperial government. She didn't know the other party's attitude and trade-offs, and she didn't want to take the risk. She looked at Hua Zhuoyu and said in a deep voice, "These people can't leave."

Hua Zhuoyu easily understood Ning Buyi's attitude, after all, there was no negotiating tone in that sentence. She smiled and said, "They are invaders from the barren star, how to deal with them depends on you, the planet owner."

Zhao Lan's heart almost jumped into his throat! A "what" almost blurted out. Her blood flowed backwards, and her whole body was icy cold, as if she was in an ice cave. She sat there trembling all over, she couldn't see her real emotion from Hua Zhuoyu's smiling face, but she could sense another one—that is, the planetary master's resistance to them. Isn't the planet owner of Desolate Star No. 1 the Ning family? How to become a strange young woman? Could it be that she was also cultivated by the Ning family? What really happened during the months they were trapped underground?

"Don't worry, I won't dig out your personal chips as cruelly as the star thief, but for the sake of the planet, I need to inject a chip blocker into your body." Ning Yi raised her eyebrows, and she added, "You are only temporarily trapped. Here. Judging from your attacks on the central control system, you have been here for four months, so you should get used to it."

"Get used to it!" Zhao Lan almost couldn't hold back her swearing, her eyes shifted from Ning Buyi's body to Hua Zhuoyu's face, there was a little bit of hope in her desperate and panicked eyes.

It's a pity that when that smiling face turned to them, it turned into a coldness emanating from his bones.

The presiding judge...will not help them!

Ning Buyi made sufficient preparations when she came this time, she has no plans to accept these people as "residents" for the time being. Beidou can easily deal with a group of people who are exhausted and dying. If the opponent is not willing to accept the blocker awake, they can only be knocked out.

Ning Yi, who walked out of the central control room, let out a long sigh of relief.

"What are you going to do with them? Are you raising them with nutrients?" Hua Zhuoyu followed Ning Buyi's footsteps and asked in a warm voice.

Ning Buyi frowned, she thought for a while before saying: "The city will recover sooner or later, let them plant trees here when the storm outside is a little less." Since the other party can't contact the outside world, it doesn't matter if they know the secret Now, she doesn't have to worry about some things that can't be passed on.

"Do you think I'm doing too much?" Ning Buyi asked seriously. Before entering this world, although she could not be called a "good person", at least she had nothing to do with the word "bad".

Hua Zhuoyu saw the panic deep in Ning Buyi's eyes, she raised her hand to touch Ning Buyi's head, and said with a smile: "It's not too much." If you can't even put your own safety first, I'm afraid there will be nothing in the end. can be sacrificed.

"Don't touch your head." Ning Buyi grabbed Hua Zhuoyu's hand and gave her a sidelong glance. Regardless of whether Hua Zhuoyu was trying to comfort her or not, she took those words as Hua Zhuoyu's approval. Her life hangs on the barren star, she doesn't need to be a saint, so why not be a little selfish?

After confiscating the equipment of the Alliance of Civilizations and injecting blockers, Ning Buyi left them some nutrients, medicines and a map of the city's movable range and left. The storm outside has not dissipated, so it is not a good time to plant trees. She first chilled this group of people in Aurora City. She didn't want to kill them, but if they insisted on seeking death, they couldn't blame her.

"What do they mean?" Wei Qu looked gloomyly at the figure submerged in the yellow sand. He once longed so much to leave the iron cage and stand under the blue sky again. Now he returned to the ground as he wished, and stood in the city he longed to explore as he wished, but his heart was about to be overwhelmed by negative emotions.

Zhao Lan is not as irritable as Wei Qu, she bites a nutritional supplement, and waits until the energy flows to the veins of the whole body before answering irrelevant questions.

"There is only one last chance left on Desolate Star One, and Judgment Moon is coming. Since they don't want our lives now, they probably won't in the future. We will be taken back after this planet is abandoned."

"Come on, I think they have bad intentions, who knows what to do?" A young man sneered, "This barren star belongs to the Ning family, and the presiding judge is from the Hua family. They have a relationship with the supervisor. The relationship is inextricably linked. What if we are exchanged for His Highness's compromise?"

Zhao Lan frowned: "Your Highness has no ill intentions towards the supervisor."

The young man smiled sarcastically: "But the royal family is different. The current royal family is not in charge of His Royal Highness."

Zhao Lan said expressionlessly: "But it is an opportunity after all, as long as the Supervisor is willing to support His Highness. If this barren star is really related to the Supervisor, we may be able to solve His Highness's troubles."

Wei Qu suddenly said, "Is the presiding judge and the crown prince's wedding date approaching? If so, this may not have anything to do with the supervisor."

Zhao Lan: "...where did you hear the news?"

Wei Qu: "That's what everyone on StarNet says, there are plenty of cp addicts."

"Don't believe what you hear."

"Oh? Are you referring to the presiding judge's elegance and humility?"

…

The storm surrounding Aurora City lasted for a week before dissipating, and the sky covered by the yellow dust finally revealed a bright and clean side. Although there is a protective cover, the storm outside has no effect on them, but there is always a sense of depression psychologically.

"How long are we going to be kept in captivity?"

"I hate this isolation from the world."

"Without a weapon, you are a lamb to the slaughter."

"Hey, when I took the oath before entering the alliance, I said that I am not afraid of any difficulties."

…

Zhao Lan and Wei Qu sat on the ground and chatted. They have a map given by Ning Yi in their hands. The place where they can move freely is the corner of the central building, which is not as big as a manor in Wang Xing. Outside is the mystery they are eager to explore, but after suffering enough, they no longer have the courage to take risks in the restricted area.

Zhao Lan didn't join their conversation. She frowned, paying attention to the movement around her all the time. After the yellow sand dissipated, the clear sky was washed by clear water, clearer than the sky of some construction stars. She looked up and saw the floating white clouds, and also saw a spaceship, her pupils shrank suddenly!

The spacecraft passed the shield and hovered outside the building.

At this time, not only Zhao Lan, but other people also noticed this change. The shape of the spaceship is ordinary, with a layer of silver plating on the outside, without any markings to show where it came from. If they could communicate with the mechs, they could easily destroy the spaceship, but now that their claws and claws have been pulled out, they can only watch the spaceship open and watch the square-headed and square-brained robots come out of the cabin. A section of carriage loaded with a dark green unknown object was dragged out.

"Your task is to plant trees outside the protective cover of the base." The robot's voice was flat and waveless.

"Plant a tree?" Wei Qu was shocked when he heard it. This is such an ancient word, and it appears only a handful of times in an ordinary person's life.

Zhao Lan was silent, not paying attention to what Wei Qu and the others said. She walked towards that section of the carriage, stared at the green plants inside without blinking, and murmured: "Multi-claw tree." According to the records of the Great Xia Civilization, it is a kind of sand-proof tree species planted in the desert. Its root system is as thick as a twisted horned dragon, and its branches are also weird like monsters with teeth and claws. There are many artificial tree species sold online, but the ugly multi-clawed tree is not popular.

The robot didn't care about Zhao Lan's reaction, and took out all the loaded tree species soaked in the nutrient solution.

"Really?" Wei Qu felt that his world view had been greatly impacted. He took a step forward and bit the branch. With a bang, he was picked up by the robot and thrown out. Wei Qu lay on the ground for a while before he calmed down his thoughts. He touched his dizzy head, sat up and looked at Zhao Lan, "Are we going to plant these things? Are we going to get out of the protective cover?"

"I won't do it." The young man with a fierce face snorted coldly. As soon as the voice fell, a black muzzle extended from behind the robot, and the electronic eyes were cold.

The young man trembled, and immediately changed his words wisely: "I'll go."

Each robot has a surveillance video device, which can clearly transmit the pictures in Aurora City to the base.

Ning Buyi was very worried about these guys who called themselves the Alliance of Civilizations, so when the robot transported the plants, she spared time to watch the projected images. If she saw Wei Qu taking a bite, she only thought it was amused, but when she saw someone treating plants extremely roughly, even breaking branches on purpose, her complexion suddenly became gloomy. This is a time when almost no plants can grow. If you feel dissatisfied after becoming a prisoner, you can resist to the end instead of giving in openly and venting your anger with plants.

Back then, she could have watched these people die in Aurora City.

Mere use is not a life-saving grace, but nutrients and medicines are not free.

Ning Buyi opened the panel of the Mountain and Sea Illustrated Book. She glanced at the reserves of dark pollution. After a while of meditation, she directly opened the "Prison Module". "Reward" exists, and "punishment" also needs to exist.

Outside Aurora City.

Peng Yu moved the tree seed with his companions. In a corner he thought the robot was not monitoring, he stroked down with his right hand, and broke another branch with a click.

"Be careful! Don't be careless." The person who was traveling with him saw his stumped branches on the ground, his heart was twitching non-stop, and his eyebrows and eyes were full of distress. These are real trees. I don't know which experimental base has cultivated them. Every leaf is priceless.

Peng Yu curled his lips and said, "I didn't do it on purpose. Besides, if a leaf falls off, it will die, and it will definitely not survive if it is planted outside." After a pause, he said with a sarcasm, "Which fool would plant a tree in the Desolate Star? We are all working hard now, so we might as well sell it."

"...Stop talking nonsense."

"No one heard it, and what if they heard it?"

Just when Peng Yu's voice fell, the two robots walked towards this side with big strides. One of them took over the multi-claw tree, while the other held Peng Yu at gunpoint, and said coldly, "For the crime of destroying plants, send them to Aurora Prison."

"Prison? Wait—"

Before the man could stop him, he was locked on by the robot's weapon and swallowed back the words that came to his lips. They have been to all the places where they can walk around, why don't they know that there is a prison? Is it in the unopened area?

"Peng Yu?" Wei Qu turned around when he heard the movement, his heart was beating wildly because of the multi-claw tree, and the boiling emotions could not be calmed down for a long time. Seeing Peng Yu being taken away at this moment, he was stunned for a while before reacting.

Zhao Lan raised his eyelids, and said in a low voice, "This boy! Let him suffer a little to understand our current situation." He was still young, and he kept "straightening his unyielding backbone", but at inappropriate times Isn't it courting death?

With the lessons learned from "Peng Yu", those who planted trees in Aurora City naturally obeyed a lot. After observing for a while, Ning Buyi stopped staring at it deliberately. Her mind is still on the construction of the base. Before the entire city system wakes up, the base is her foundation.

Hua Zhuoyu sat lazily on the sofa, she knew what happened in Aurora City, but she didn't intervene. Her eyes glanced at the "food advertisement" that flashed by, and she suddenly said: "The cleaning range spreads outward, and the number of edible beasts has decreased. Maybe it's time to consider buying meat on the star network?"

Ning Buyi has long been used to Hua Zhuoyu coming to sit by his side, and when she heard her mentioning "food", Ning Buyi gave a faint "hmm", in fact Shen Li also mentioned this matter. Plants are scarce in the Tanlang galaxy, but those domesticated poultry and livestock still exist, but according to Hua Zhuoyu's description, the existence of dark pollution makes their meat quality not reach the top level, at most it is a wild animal. The Beast is a tad better. If this is the case, she will have to deal with it after buying it from Xingwang. This is too much of a waste of time, it is better to raise livestock that have not been polluted genetically in the illustrated book.

"You can buy some breeding first." Ning Buyi thought about it and said, when the time comes, he will also get the ones from the Mountain and Sea Illustration Book to raise, so it won't be too blinking an eye.

"The best choice is to buy processed frozen products." Hua Zhuoyu turned to Ning Buyi, but seeing Ning Buyi's brows slightly frowned, she smiled again and said, "You can also raise them by yourself, feed some products from the base. The vegetable leaves produced can more or less purify the pollution in their bodies."

Ning Buyi's eyes lit up, and he had to admit that this was a good idea.

Hua Zhuoyu suddenly said again: "In November, I will return to Wang Xing."

Ning Buyi didn't expect Hua Zhuoyu to bring up this matter, she frowned and said: "The black lock in your body will be cleared by the Big Dipper for you, you should have gone back long ago."

Hua Zhuoyu asked: "Do you want me to leave?"

Ning Buyi sat upright, her hands pressed tightly on her lap, pretending to be relaxed and said: "This is not something I can decide."

Hua Zhuoyu tilted her head and smiled slightly: "That's right, the base is much more lively now." She got up and moved a bit until she touched Ning Buyi's shoulder, she fixed her eyes on Ning Buyi, "I can feel that this planet is Recovery, when it comes to the month of judgment, it may not be impossible to pass the level. But in this way, the news of the barren star can no longer be concealed. The upgraded armed system can repel the attacks of ordinary people. As for the pressure from the imperial government, I will find a way to solve it."

"You just..." Ning Buyi hesitated for a while, but his words were still somewhat vague, "So good?"

Hua Zhuoyu blinked, with a brisk smile in his eyes: "I will not let anyone destroy the recovery of the 'Lost Kingdom' because of selfishness."

Ning Buyi was a little happy after hearing her words, she tried her best to press the corners of her raised lips, and thanked her sincerely: "Thank you."

"Don't be polite to me, this is too alien." Hua Zhuoyu paused for a moment, then continued, "There is not much time left, are you ready for mecha training?"

"Eh?" Ning Buyi looked confused.

Hua Zhuoyu: "There is a simulated training room on the star network, but you need to go through various complicated application procedures before you can get permission to use it. But my private training room can be opened to you."

"What do I need to do?" Ning Buyi's eyes were frighteningly bright, the word "become stronger" was very attractive to her.

"Memorize ten books first, and do a few sets of questions. I'll pack it up and send it to you later."

Ning Buyi: "..." She didn't understand why Hua Zhuoyu could say such cold and terrifying words so easily.

Hua Zhuoyu explained: "Manual exercises are the foundation. You have to understand that there should be an operation mode when the mental power is disconnected from the mecha."

"But-"

"Um?"

Under Hua Zhuoyu's perplexed gaze, Ning Buyi swallowed the phrase "I need to endorse the book" again.

Hua Zhuoyu said seriously: "By the way, physical training should also be strengthened."

Ning Buyi nodded with tears in her eyes.

For a moment, she began to miss the "coquettish" Hua Zhuoyu before. Even if that mouth can only lie, the words that come out are sweet.
