What is a super villain?

Chapter 271
There is always a dead silence in the deep space.

In most areas, the stars are just dotted background lights, which can only witness the vast void and the boundless emptiness.Even in cosmic voids like the 'Hercules Void', even the background light will disappear.

It's like falling into the deep sea, and the world falls into eternal silence.

And the huge fleet that broke into the dead silence of deep space is like those whales swimming gracefully in the deep sea.

They move silently in the dark, dive!Dive again!
Stir up the waves, stir up the waves, and make the dark predators of the deep look sideways, lest they avoid them.

right now,

The fleet is sailing at a constant speed, and on the same course as them, there are two comets that seem to be only the size of rice grains.

Of course, it is not that the comet is too small, but that the fleet is too large.

As I said just now, they are giant whales swimming in the sea of ​​stars.

Even at a distance of tens of millions of kilometers, the shape of the fleet spacecraft can be clearly seen.

The largest homeship among them looks like a cylinder, surrounded by a ring of luminous bodies like an angel's halo; on its further periphery, there are two conical twin frigates shaped like iron nails, and a jellyfish-shaped light and fluffy supply ship.

Fleet spaceships have their own distinctive style, with simple but not simple lines.

If you zoom in, you can see the glowing lines on the surface of the hull like nerve clusters, which seem to be passages for the members of the hull to pass through.

The cylindrical structure of the home ship is divided into two parts near the angel's aperture, and a rocky planet about two-thirds of the volume of the blue star "Uzuki" is trapped in the middle by the cylinder, just like being trapped by a "giant whale" The captured food is being broken down and digested.

Through the glowing porthole, someone looked down on the rocky planet.

The surface of the planet is covered with potholes and depressions. Useful minerals are mined by automatic robots and transported to various parts of the home ship, and the excess is sent to the supply ship for storage.

The remaining useless anorthosite and basalt are left on the planetary crust, and when they are exhausted, they will be thrown away by the home ship like food scraps.

Suddenly, another hand stretched out from behind, holding a transparent bottle with a cork in it, filled with gray soil.

"486 grams of the surface soil of planet ALO-20, numbered P111, is yours."

The visitor was a young man who looked to be in his early 20s at most, sunny and strong, and seemed to be full of explosive power.

The man who took over the soil looked much more stable, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes showed that he was much older.

"Thank you."

The latter raised the transparent bottle filled with soil to their eyes. They were wearing clothes made of special textile fabrics, which showed obvious differences from Azure Star in terms of texture.

The planet ALO-486 refers to the one that is being decomposed outside the porthole; the number P111 means that it is the 111th prey captured by Taixu.

"Knowing that senior Yin likes to collect the soil of each 'resource star' as a souvenir, it happens that the position is convenient, so I fetched it for the senior. I wonder if the senior is satisfied?"

"Li Yangchun, you don't have to do this."

"How can we! We are only 0.6 light-years away from Sol-III, and the people who will visit at that time will be me, you, senior sister Wenren... plus a psionic can, senior Yin has the highest position and must be the commander. Isn't this a good relationship in advance!"

The young man named Li Yangchun smiled honestly and scratched his head, without the slightest philistine or treacherous temperament of a speculator.

On the contrary, it makes people feel that he is sincere enough, sincerity is the ultimate skill!

Another middle-aged man who was called "Senior Yin" by Li Changchun looked very indifferent, with a detached and indifferent appearance, and shook his head:
"The position does not represent status, nor does it have jurisdiction. Even if I am a bit older and lucky to command on the spot, you and I are equal."

"Of course!" Li Yangchun responded enthusiastically, "Except for the old man Dijun and those psychic cans, everyone in Tianshiyuan is absolutely equal. The resources that can be mobilized are exactly the same, and the power is also completely the same."

"But I brought all the things. Senior Yin will not refuse to accept them, right? Just treat it as a friend."

The middle-aged man took a deep look at him, and finally nodded:

"Dong Yin accepted the present. Please take care of me when I visit Weilan and welcome back the saint."

"Take care of me, take care of me!"

Li Yangchun smiled brightly, cupped his fists and bowed, making his demeanor more like that of a martial arts practitioner.

Finally, the planet outside the porthole was completely disassembled, and the huge mechanical arms fixed on both sides of the cylindrical hull of the ship were loosened. This poor rocky planet was abandoned halfway like space junk, and began to aimlessly vagabond career.

After releasing the rocky planet, the two halves of the hull quickly closed, rotating and tightening into one.

This scene was no less than landslides and ground cracks in front of small individuals, but Li Yangchun and Dong Yin seemed to have gotten used to this scene, talking and laughing nonchalantly.

It wasn't until the two halves of the ship were completely closed, and there was a slight tremor from the soles of their feet, that they turned their heads away.

Looking at ALO-486 gradually going away, Li Yangchun sighed, as if happy for its release:
"In this way, there will be no need to replenish minerals for 'Taixu' in the next 40 years, and no new planets will suffer within 40 years...Does Senior Yin still remember where ALO-486 was captured?"

"ALO-477 planetary system."

Dong Yin replied without hesitation, "It is about 126 light-years away from here. Now if you look up and look to the upper left, the A-type main-sequence star with average brightness is the ALO-477 star."

Outside the porthole is a sea of ​​stars, some stars are near and some are far away, Li Yangchun looked to the upper left for a long time, but couldn't tell which one Dong Yin was talking about from a series of flashing light spots.

After a moment, he gave up.

Looking aimlessly into the darkness, he exclaimed, "It's so far away! I still remember that when ALO-486 was captured, its main star was a water world planet. The planetary environment compressed a large amount of nitrogen dioxide into a rare pink color. Liquid, like a lollipop. I don’t know if it will have a chance to float back home and meet its host star in its lifetime.”

"Not very likely."

Dong Yin opened his mouth in disappointment, and also looked at the direction that the broken rocky planet was drifting away:
"Its possible fate is to lose mass continuously during its aimless drifting, and become a wandering dwarf planet, or even an asteroid. After many billions of years, it will be captured by some other celestial body, become a part of the latter's mass, and never return. to the very beginning."

"Just like us, huh?"

Li Yangchun smiled slightly, and spread his hands helplessly.

Dong Yin frowned, then seriously corrected: "It's not the same."

"Our 'Taixu' is a traveler civilization, freed from the shackles of the parent star, and able to survive anywhere in the wider universe. Enclosing life in planets with fixed orbits is an obstacle to the progress of civilization. At present This deep space is a home that is bigger than the parent star, and it is inexhaustible..."

"Inexhaustible resources will allow us to quickly break out of the fragile stage of civilization and become a more advanced form of organization."

Li Yangchun completed the second half of the sentence for him, and then sighed:

"Senior Yin doesn't have to follow the textbook to correct me, of course I know the content."

"But what is it actually? It's just another kind of painting." Li Yangchun stomped his feet, "We have lived on this city wall since we were young, and we have crossed one star field after another, and walked one after another. A planet, drifting aimlessly in the universe... How much difference is there between a starship and a wandering planet?"

"In a sense, it's not as good as those blood-related compatriots who live on pioneering colonial planets with only a few clothes and water."

Dong Yin frowned even tighter, and a deep Sichuan shape appeared above the bridge of his nose:
"Are you a settler? How rare!"

"That's right! I also think" Li Yangchun shrugged, "Emperor Taiwei never restricts the freedom of speech and thought on 'Taixu', so there is room for rebellious settlers like me to survive."

"I can't figure it out either. How could those psychic cans choose a rebel like me to visit Azure Planet, so they aren't afraid of my betrayal on the spot?"

When he said this, the slight vibration of the air behind him was like ripples, and a voice came from far to near.

"Because you participated in the Taiwei Palace military officer assessment and selection for the 1 quota of extra supplies, and won No.[-]."

Li Yangchun's expression changed slightly, and the 'spiritual energy can' he was talking about walked up to the two of them.

The reason why it is called 'spiritual energy can' is because the visitor is covered with a film-like transparent shell, which is composed of countless small rectangular planes, and changes shape with every movement of the user.

Under the refraction of light, this film shell occasionally scatters colorful reflections.

Inside the film shell, there is a mist-like thing, like an air mass, or a light mass, which is not a serious thing anyway.

The color of the air mass is orange, imitating the human torso and limbs, but without a head, there are only two bright spots on the chest, which seem to be eyes.

"As the chief military officer of Taiwei Palace, the emperor handpicked me to participate in this visit. Li Yangchun, a fifth-level capable person, if you don't want to, you can appeal to the emperor."

The voice of 'Psychic Can' without any emotion rang directly in the minds of Li Yangchun and Dong Yin—they did not have vocal organs, but relied on telepathy-like abilities to communicate with humans.

"Damn! Who told you to directly connect to my consciousness!"

Li Yangchun frowned immediately, and his face was not very good-looking.

"As a supervisor, I have the right to connect with the consciousness of any Taixu people except the emperor and the saint. Also, please call me 'Dagar' or 'Apostate'."

The psychic can responded in this way.

Looking around, on the huge spaceship called 'Sky City Wall', there are many more spiritual energy cans like this.

They are Taixu's regulators and law enforcers. It is said that they were captured by Emperor Taiwei after he defeated an invader from a different space.

Dong Yin and Li Yangchun said before that in Taixu, 'everyone is equal under the emperor', and it is absolutely fair, which is guaranteed by these canned psychic energy.

In addition to serving as loyal minions of the emperor, the apostate is also Taixu's administrative and service organization.

Taixu doesn't have artificial intelligence systems or bionics, apostates replace these roles and do it better.

"Then Dagar, what are you looking for us for?"

Dong Yin asked the psionic can in front of him.

Dagar replied faithfully: "Soon, the Taixu fleet will arrive in the Sol-III planetary system. According to the emperor's decree, Tianshiyuan will be stationed at the outer edge of the Kuiper belt of the planetary system, and the three envoys can go to the 'Tu Siguan' to land first. The ship is ready. Wenren Zhu's ceremony officer has already taken the first step, and now I will inform the two of you."

Dong Yin cupped his hands first, "Thank you, let's go get ready."

Dagar's voice sounded again, like an echo in the void:
"Your Excellency, Chief Military Officer, apart from the visit, you have an additional mission. The emperor's maid, Long Lin, stole the emperor's treasure and has fled to the blue star. You have been appointed to recover it for the emperor. Be cautious and don't disturb the blue star." residents."

"what!?"

Li Yangchun opened his mouth wide enough to fit a fist, then he sighed in a helpless tone:

"Okay, okay, can't I go? Let me declare in advance that I don't promise to complete the task! If I accidentally betray at that time, it must be a force majeure factor. Don't be angry, old man Dijun!"

As soon as the words fell, Li Yangchun was sent flying by an invisible force like a ball, and hit the glass of the porthole, showing a funny 'big' shape.

Li Yangchun hastily buckled himself from the glass, stood like a pine, stood at attention and saluted.

"Follow the emperor's law!"

"The rebellion just now was just a joke. I, Li Yangchun, promise to obey the order and complete the task. I will die!"

"loyalty!!"

There was only a sullen thunder in the void, which turned into a simple and direct word.

"roll!"
