Chapter 4 Codename Merchant(1/2)
"I thought you were going to kill them."
On the empty pale land, the Warlock's Book floated beside Fang Xiu, making a hoarse sound.
"I will get nothing by killing them. Instead, I will waste so much chaotic energy. This is a bad deal. I will not make a bad deal."
Fang Xiu stretched out his hand, and the scarlet light jumped on his palm again. With a wave of his hand, the formation patterns on the ground were instantly erased. He took a deep breath and said, "I haven't asked you yet? Fate.
Isn't stealing the records in the Warlock's Book a way for you to sneak into another world? Is this how you sneak in like Nie Zheng?"
Fate Stealing is a warlock magic recorded in the Warlock's Book. It is a growth-type magic learned starting from the third level. It can gradually become stronger as the warlock becomes stronger. It is also a means for warlock civilization to invade other worlds.
This kind of magic allows people from the Warlock Civilization who pass through the "Dimensional Elevator" to obtain the identities of people in this world and steal certain memories. This is also one of the regular invasion methods of the Warlock Civilization.
Fang Xiu also adopted this method when he came to this world, but the result was far beyond his expectation. He sneaked in and directly had face-to-face contact with others. The warlock civilization invaded other worlds like this. It was too violent!
"Lifestealing is a growth-type warlock magic. A high-level warlock can perfectly steal lives when casted by it. However, you are only a low-level warlock. Now you can only rely on luck to cast it with me."
The Warlock's Book gave an explanation, and then said angrily: "Besides, if our warlock civilization invaded and killed everyone, wouldn't we be able to use this identity openly? The reason why you can't use it is because you are too weak.
"
The Warlock's Book taught Fang Xiu the exclusive infiltration secret method of Nie Zheng, one of the four great assassins, on the spot. As long as everyone is killed, no one will know that I have infiltrated. This is a perfect infiltration assassination.
It's a pity that Fang Xiu can't learn this kind of violent method from the warlock civilization. This is a method that can only be used by overlord-level civilization. His fist is not big enough.
"Weakness is the original sin!"
Fang Xiu rubbed his brows. In addition to lamenting that he was too weak to imitate the violence of the warlock civilization, he also lamented his unfavorable situation in this world.
From the memory of "Li Xu" he obtained, he learned that the three-light-year projection range of the "dimensional passage" left by the Warlock civilization is on the main battlefield between humans and Zerg in this world.
This means that this world cannot be used as a world for his humble development. A big war between Zerg and humans can easily wipe him out. These are the two top civilizations that can truly compete for hegemony in the galaxy. Star destroyers can come easily.
.
Essentially, it's because he's not strong enough. If he could have half the strength of the previous warlock civilization, he could directly force his way into the world.
But now we can only rely on the identity of this "mysterious businessman" to gain some benefits. The specific world where we can develop needs to be changed. This world is not suitable as a novice village after all.
What Fang Xiu needs now is a world with enough life for him to reach a higher level as a warlock, and it is best if there is no advanced civilization within the projection range of the "dimensional channel" of the original world, so that he can develop with peace of mind.
Even the fourth natural disaster needs a novice village, and so does he.
"Leave, this world will not be my novice village now." Fang Xiu shook his head and said.
"Then what's the use of pretending to be a businessman?" Warlock's Book asked in confusion.
Fang Xiu glanced at the Warlock's Book and said, "Don't you ever make deals with others?"
"Why do we want to trade? Why don't we just rob them?"
Fang Xiu suddenly discovered that the gap between him and the warlock civilization was quite big!
Doesn't he want to steal it?
He can't steal it!
"Let's go back!"
The next second, scarlet light lit up the planet again, Fang Xiu and the battleship disappeared into the pale earth at the same time, and the dead planet returned to silence again.
………
On the mothership of the 12th Fleet of the Seventh Legion in the Northern Galaxy Star Territory, people were coming and going in the central hall. Almost everyone's face was filled with excitement. The Seventh Legion had achieved great success in the battle against the Zerg in the kz6 Star Star Territory. Humanity
The front line with the Zerg will be pushed back to the vicinity of the tcs3 star.
This is the greatest victory that humans have ever won since the war began. Since the war began, the front line has been pushed forward by the Zerg for more than 150 light years, almost beyond the strategic buffer zone set by the human strategy at that time. This time it is
For the first time, mankind has pushed back the front lines.
For the first time in more than 160 years of earth time, the Zerg were defeated.
Since the war between humans and Zerg began, the Zerg are like a dark cloud that will never dissipate over human beings. They are tireless, will not fail, and will always be high-spirited and fight to the death for their Zerg Queen.
Now it turns out that the Zerg are not invincible, they will also fail. This makes all the participants feel excited, even walking with wind.
And at this moment, scarlet radiance lit up in the conference hall, and endless brilliance bloomed. This was the power of the dimensional channel of the superdimensional warlock civilization, a power that surpassed human understanding in this world.
The scarlet radiance only lasted for three seconds before disappearing into the central hall, followed by the main attack fleet members of the 7th Squadron of the 12th Fleet of the 7th Legion of the Northern Galaxy Star Territory.
Gu Xuehai felt that his whole body was just light, and his vision flew quickly, just like when the curvature engine was started, but it was more advanced.
By the time Gu Xuehai came to his senses, he had already appeared in the central hall of the Twelve Fleet mothership, and the voice of "Li Xu" seemed to still be in his ears.
This technology has gone beyond Gu Xuehai's understanding. What can be compared with it in his memory is the future technology mentioned by the Human League - cross-space transmission technology. However, it is said that this technology is only a conjecture at present, and even getting started is difficult.
Didn't touch it.
"Is it the right time?"
Gu Xuehai pondered in his heart for a moment, then raised his head to look at the dense muzzles of guns that were pointed at them, raised his hand and said:
"I am Gu Xuehai, the main attack ship captain of the 7th Squadron of the 12th Fleet of the 7th Legion of the Northern Galaxy Star Region. I request to see the chief captain of the 12th Fleet for a special report."
In the central hall, Zheng Ling, deputy general staff officer of the Seventh Fleet, heard the words and walked out. She recognized the person in front of her as Gu Xuehai, but she did not dare to get too close because Zerg parasitism was a nightmare in the beginning of the war between humans and Zerg.
"Gu Xuehai, why are you here?"
Gu Xuehai looked at Zheng Ling and said: "Let me say it again, I am the main attack ship captain of the 7th squadron of the 12th fleet of the 7th Army of the Northern Galaxy - Gu Xuehai. I request to see the chief captain of the 12th fleet for a special report. This is top secret.
intelligence."
Looking at Gu Xuehai's firm eyes, Zheng Ling hesitated for a moment and said to the people around him: "Assign personnel to review them and strictly check whether they have Zerg parasites and whether they use cloning technology. As for whether the chief captain has met them, I need to ask
The captain’s opinion.”
………
Three Earth Days later, Gu Xuehai was finally allowed to meet Captain Xu Beihai alone. Even Zheng Ling did not know what Captain Xu Beihai and Gu Xuehai talked about. This conversation was listed as
Top secret files, not even video files were left behind.
However, Zheng Ling could guess that this was related to the sudden appearance of Gu Xuehai and his entourage in the central hall. Since that day, Zheng Ling searched a lot of information, but could not figure out how Gu Xuehai appeared in the central hall.
She guessed that it should be an advanced technology, and only in this way can all this be explained.
After Captain Xu Beihai met Gu Xuehai, Zheng Ling received an order from the Captain to take Gu Xuehai and his party to the North Galaxy Star Territory Headquarters. This job should not be done by her as a staff officer. Zheng Ling knew
This is probably because she and Gu Xuehai are classmates.
On the cruise ship leaving the Seventh Fleet mothership, Zheng Ling looked at Gu Xuehai beside him and said: "I know this may involve some secrets, so you can pick up what you can say."
Zheng Ling raised her head and looked directly into Gu Xuehai's eyes: "What happened to you?"
Gu Xuehai looked at the classmates in front of him, shook his head and said:
"It's something you can't believe. Even now it's hard for me to believe it. If I hadn't appeared in the central hall of the mothership, I might have remained skeptical. As for other things, I can't tell you.
, this is confidential.”
Gu Xuehai still doesn't know whether the magic that the mysterious businessman finally said is true or false, but he can be sure that he has indeed encountered the greatest opportunity for mankind.
………
Even though the human alliance has conquered the curvature engine and can fly at faster than light speeds, the universe is still vast beyond imagination for humans. The diameter of the Milky Way alone is close to 80,000 light-years, and the thickness of the center exceeds 10,000 light-years.
Traveling at a speed of 600 times the speed of light, it took almost half a month to reach the headquarters of the Northern Galaxy Star Territory. Facts have proved that human beings are still pitiful and insignificant in the face of the universe.
Even though they have left the earth and the solar system, they are still as small as dust.
The Northern Galaxy Star Territory Headquarters is one of the five largest battlefield command headquarters in the entire Zerg battlefield. It commands more than a quarter of the human military strength. It is also the largest frontal battlefield against the Zerg. The commander-in-chief of the Northern Galaxy Star Territory, Wang Zhiyuan, is also a human.
The general who faced the Zerg war for the longest time.
From the beginning of the war more than 160 years ago, he was a captain on the battlefield. For more than 160 years, he has been on the front line. Even now, human life span has been greatly extended. In the past two years,
A hundred years is still a long time.
It can be said that this general has devoted almost half his life to the entire human alliance, but the evaluation he has received is not good. The Zerg battlefield situation has been unfavorable for many years, and humans are very dissatisfied with this Northern Galaxy general.
Some people even called him a cowardly general, attributing all the disadvantages of the Zerg battlefield to his conservative defense, and believed that humans should take the initiative to attack instead of passively defending.
It's just that General Wang Zhiyuan has never changed his strategy because of external evaluations. He still goes his own way, insists on a conservative defensive strategy, and grinds out positions with the Zerg on this huge battlefield.
When Gu Xuehai met the commander-in-chief, it was already the second day after he arrived at the headquarters.
The first impression of Gu Xuehai is that of robustness and toughness. This middle-aged man who is nearly 200 years old is tall and tall, with a strong back and a strong back. He stands there like a mountain. Although his head is full of silver-white hair, his eyes are sharp.
The sharp sword light made people dare not look at him.
It is hard to imagine that such a person would be described as conservative and cowardly, which shows that a person's appearance and personality may be completely different.
In the central conference room, after Gu Xuehai and the main personnel of the fleet narrated the complete incident, Wang Zhiyuan, the most powerful middle-aged man in the entire Northern Galaxy, raised his head and said: "Didn't the businessman say when to pick up the collection?"
Gu Xuehai shook his head and said: "No, he just did it when the time was right. When I wanted to ask about the time again, I had already been sent back to the mothership of the Seventh Fleet."
"Do you think the means by which you were teleported back was magic, or some kind of high-level technological means?" Wang Zhiyuan looked directly into Gu Xuehai's eyes and asked.
"I'm not sure. Our technology appeared as a mythical method a thousand years ago. I can't tell." Gu Xuehai answered truthfully.
"So what do you think the situation of this businessman should be?" Wang Zhiyuan poured a cup of tea for Gu Xuehai.
"We can't understand the technology used by that businessman at all. I think it may be a more cruel answer - a third civilization that is more advanced than us and the Zerg, but it will definitely not be the Zerg."
