Blessings to the beautiful stars

Chapter 16 Rebuttal
The clerk at Huabutou had already left, leaving Zuo Wu still thinking about it.

What should I say?He is worthy of being an employee of Mutual Insurance.

Although he has already noticed that there seems to be a strange inconsistency hidden in this transaction, but the profit-seeking nature still pushes him to make this transaction with the psychic creature without definite evidence.

Moreover, the clerk insisted that the information was just his unintentional thoughts, so he didn't need to be responsible for the authenticity.Not to mention letting him and Gongrong Insurance owe him favors.

Afterwards, if something that may cause the destruction of the planet is really found out, the clerk only needs to observe the reactions of his party and the group of psionic creatures before deciding what to do.

After all, it is impossible for such a big planet to blow up, and if Zuo Wu and the two ladies with questionable identities want to escape, they may have to ask him.

...But Zuo Wu himself must be chasing after the clues provided by the clerk, and he was really calculated.

Zuo Wu sighed softly and lowered his head.The two untouched drinks on the table were still steaming.

Then he looked through the dense fog and saw Levina sitting with her legs intertwined.

Meat legs on top, mechanical prosthetics on bottom.Levina picked up the hot tea that was originally prepared for the clerk, and blew a little:

"This guest is really rude. The co-prosperity insurance behind him is amazing? Let him be full of arrogance... Boss, don't you want to drink?"

After finishing speaking, she raised her neck and drank the contents of the cup in one gulp, but the face behind the veil showed a subtle expression:

"...Wow, boss, you better stop drinking. This can only be regarded as my low-level reception in an unfamiliar place. If you misunderstand my level, I can't stand it."

Then, she hung the empty cup upside down, watching the remaining liquid drip onto her lap and evaporate rapidly in the air.

"Why do you say that, but I look forward to it?"

In the meaningful eyes of the maid, Zuo Wu grinned, and then became solemn.After hesitating for a few more seconds, he finally tentatively put the thing that required courage to drink into his mouth.

He found that the taste of this drink is not liquid, but the aggregation of bubbles.The bubbles pouring into the mouth exploded instantly, stimulating every taste bud of Zuo Wu like an electric current.In the three-dimensional experience, the tastes he tasted are different every moment, but when combined together, there is a wonderful harmony.

In short, it's weird, but it's delicious!

Zuo Wu imitated Levina's appearance in amazement, and drank the contents of the cup in one gulp. The stimulating feeling was stronger and the aftertaste was doubled.

Before I knew it, the cup was empty.Unlike Levina, Zuo Wu waited for the last drop of drink to flow into his mouth before putting down the cup reluctantly.

He wiped his mouth: "It's really good, can I have another glass?"

"……what."

Levina sighed, as if saying "yes", but also as if she was simply laughing.

She got up, took Zuo Wu's teacup, but hung the cup on her finger, and spread her hands again: "So you are an employer who can be satisfied with this level? It makes me feel like I have nowhere to use my energy. "

Zuo Wu grinned, and wanted to say to his maid, if you can do better, of course I don’t mind, but Levina took it on her own:

"But I think you should be a more greedy person, boss. If you are not greedy in 'quality', what are you longing for?"

The voice fell.

Zuo Wu suddenly remembered the darkness that had flowed through his heart. He raised his head, subconsciously trying to deny it, but only saw Levina bowed slightly, turned and walked towards the kitchen.

……

"Huh? Star destroyer weapon? It's too exaggerated, I don't believe it or not!"

Ai Shanshan was a little guilty, because she just looked away for a while, and the symptoms of Zuo Wu, who was seriously ill, deepened.Not to mention being addicted to the elf's weird drink, what's even more annoying is that he actually believed the nonsense told by the clerk of Gongrong Insurance!

"Listen well, you can't hide a star-destroying weapon! The older model itself is a giant structure, larger than many terrestrial planets! Even the new models that have been reduced in size recently consume more than one shot. It didn't decrease, but increased!"

A megastructure is a giant creation, or a large-scale psionic circle.

Ai Shanshan snapped his fingers: "Even if the target is only a small asteroid, the total cost of the star-killing weapon from delivery to preparation to shooting out may exceed millions of energy coins! Such a majestic energy Consumption can be easily observed physically, and even economically it cannot be hidden!"

"Besides, there's no practical point in smashing a planet!"

"If it is to eliminate a regime, there are countless ways that are more cost-effective and effective; for mining? The ore is melted under the star destroying weapon, so why mine?"

She stood up from the sofa a little excitedly: "After all, the deterrent significance of this kind of thing is far greater than the actual significance. Instead of believing this, Zuo Wu, you might as well believe that those mindless spiritual creatures were fooled by the common prosperity insurance It's really lame!"

It is said that the ancestors of the sea monsters could send their songs dozens of kilometers away on the sea.And Ai Shanshan, who inherited the blood of the siren, also shook the ears of the other two with his voice.

Zuo Wu was a little worried about her voice, so he handed the tea prepared by Levina, but the roommate waved it away irritably:

"Me! No! Drink!"

Zuo Wu had no choice but to take back the teacup.

But Levina, who made it, was fascinated by Aishanshan's words: "I thought it would be great to be able to move mountains and reclaim seas, but...a weapon that can shatter planets? It might even be hidden in my around?"

The maid inhaled, and shifted her eyes behind the veil to Zuo Wu: "Boss, can I follow you to find that 'spiritual creature' this time?"

Before Zuo Wu could answer, Ai Shanshan rushed forward with his arms folded: "No! Do you know how to use creations, or are you highly skilled in psionic skills? If you don't, you can only get in the way!"

Levina was a little dizzy: "'Creation'? 'Spiritual skills'?"

"How should I put it?" Zuo Wu scratched his cheek:
"Such as your mechanical arm and Aishanshan's power armor are creations. In different cultures, magic, witchcraft, mind power, and true energy are collectively referred to as psionic skills in the Star Sea Alliance."

Levina still tilted her head in confusion: "Really angry?"

"It's also a psionic skill developed by some civilizations that pursue individual strength, but the form is slightly special. Huh? Among these words, you are most interested in 'zhenqi'?"

"Because it's a word I've never heard before." Levina nodded, then sat down in frustration:
"It's a pity, if my mask is still there, then I may be quite good at psionic arts."

Ai Shanshan closed her eyes in satisfaction, did she give up the idea of ​​going with her?

But this kind of satisfaction was broken by Zuo Wu's words in the next moment: "Even so, I still hope you can come with me."

Zuo Wu grinned and looked directly at his roommate's angry eyes: "Ai Shanshan, don't forget the previous question. Psychic creatures don't need to eat, so what do they buy Levina's limbs for?"

"I always felt that Levina wasn't completely unrelated to this."

Zuo Wu could only attribute this to his own intuition.Levina's hometown was too far away from this dead planet, and she had never even seen a psychic creature before.To say there is a relationship between them is indeed a bit far-fetched.

Ai Shanshan didn't raise any objection, just bared his fangs and glanced at Levina.

The latter raised his hand: "It's not that I'm keeping secrets, it's just that I really don't have a clue... When are we going to leave?"

Zuo Wu shrugged: "Tomorrow, after all, it is impossible for the planet under our feet to explode."

After finishing speaking, he wanted to drink the hot tea that he was going to give to Ai Shanshan, but Ai Shanshan took it away with a glaring look: "I agree, it's only been a while since I came back, and my chair hasn't been warmed yet. "

"...Wow, if my hands and feet are rotten and smelly, can I still connect them?"

"Don't worry, I'll keep it safe for you," Ai Shanshan snorted at the elf, then turned to look at Zuo Wu: "Come here, I want to get some pocket money!"

"It's easy to say, is it convenient to ask what you want to withdraw the money for?" Zuo Wu readily agreed.

"Go buy the blueprints for the night vision module," Ai Shanshan sighed, and muttered quietly: "Sooner or later, I will find a way to crack the encryption of these blueprints."
