Star Ocean: Starting from the Abandoned Mining Space Station.

Chapter 127 Yu Hui’s concession, Yu Hui’s plan, Yu Hui’s…surrender

Chen Ming did not expect that Brilliance, which had not been seen for a while, suddenly appeared here.

It seemed that it had escaped the attack that the Fourteenth Legion asked the company to launch into the galaxy where he was staying before.

This is not a bad thing for Chen Ming. After all, his relationship with Hui Hui is relatively normal and comfortable.

Therefore, he did not directly vent the emotions accumulated in his heart on it, but asked seriously: "Brilliant, what do you want from me?"

Huihuang was very surprised at this time that Chen Ming could directly distinguish different afterglow individuals behind the same voice, but it did not dwell on it and said truthfully: "I have a new task that I need to communicate with you."

"Oh?"

G3, who had a conflict with Chen Ming just a few hours ago, disappeared, and then Hui Huang, who had a good cooperative relationship with him earlier, came.

Chen Ming knew very well what mission Huihuang was talking about, but he still asked knowingly: "What mission?"

"appease."

Chen Ming sneered, pointed to the Qiling Nerve Extraction Device under him, which was still running, but should never run smoothly again, and the several shackles on his body, and asked, "This is to appease me. ?”

As soon as he finished speaking, the equipment under him stopped running automatically, and all the shackles holding Chen Ming were released.

As the spiritual energy fluctuations of the device gradually subsided, Chen Ming suddenly realized at this time that the sense of danger given to him by the Qiling Nerve Extraction Device had completely disappeared.

It may be that Chen Ming has already controlled this device, or it may be that the source of the real sense of danger is the spiritual nerve.

But these are no longer important now. There is no way Chen Ming will let Yu Hui use this device on him for the second time.

Chen Ming rubbed his wrist, stood up from the device, and asked Hui Hui: "You don't think I'm a fool, do you?"

"No, of course you have reason to suspect that we just want to stall for time and then conduct some nasty experiments on you again."

Chen Ming reached out and patted the extraction device next to him and said, "But I think this is not an experiment, but something more dangerous."

"Unless you can tell me what is that thing that got into my head but failed to kill me, maybe I can change something?"

Chen Ming's words silenced Huihuang for a moment.

Obviously, there is no reasonable reason at this time to explain what needs to be administered directly through the orbit to contact the human brain.

And the above arrangement obviously did not allow it to tell the actual situation.

Hui Hui was extremely embarrassed at this time.

It had previously clearly opposed the proposal to extract psychic energy from Chen Ming.

But its opinions were not adopted, and the superiors even directly kicked it out in the final stage of the mission.

But now, after the plan failed, it was needed to come back and help appease Chen Ming.

Even if there was a bigger accident in the plan, he wouldn't have to talk to Chen Ming, he would just collect the body for Chen Ming and be done with it.

It understands Yuhui's group's fear of Chen Ming's ability, and their desire to take this ability into their own hands.

But it completely fails to understand how such a decision was made without considering the risks and consequences in order to achieve the goal.

In the end, it even needs to be kicked out to wipe the butt.

But these brilliance can only be thought of. What it can actually do now is to spit out four words after being silent for a long time.

"terribly sorry."

Chen Ming always felt awkward when hearing Hui Hui's apology, as if it wasn't Hui Hui who was apologizing.

At this moment, his mind suddenly flashed through all the strange things that Hui Hui had displayed deliberately some time ago.

After thinking in silence for a while, Chen Ming made up his mind.

He suddenly let out a long sigh and said, "Let's start with a lighter topic. To be honest, I still have a pretty good impression of you."

"If you hadn't come, I wouldn't have been able to talk to Yuhui, who wanted to kill me."

"But if we continue this topic, you and I may be at a loss for words."

"it is good."

Huihuang agreed decisively and asked, "Then where do we start?"

"Let's start from here. Did you take the initiative to comfort me?"

Huihuang answered decisively again: "No."

"Oh? So is this a task forced upon you directly?"

"Yes."

"It's really surprising."

Afterglow doesn't seem to have adequate planning to deal with various possible scenarios.

So much so that in the end, Huihuang, an individual whom Chen Ming was very familiar with, was chosen to carry out the operation of "pacifying", which was unreliable at all costs.

I don’t know what they are thinking. Maybe they just want to delay time through their glorious existence and presentation?

Just after Chen Ming was silent for half a minute because he was thinking about Yu Hui's thoughts, Hui Hui suddenly took the initiative and said, "Can I ask you some questions?"

"Okay, but you have to wait until I finish asking."

What Chen Ming said seemed very unreasonable.

But now Yuhui obviously does not have the ability to immediately start the second extraction process of spiritual nerves.

So they still have ideas about Chen Ming's spiritual power and don't want to kill Chen Ming now.

Chen Ming's behavior of testing the bottom line is nothing at all.

However, he did not continue to talk about these things, but brought up a previous incident: "What were you doing after I left?"

"I told you before that I will continue my previous mission of looking after the galaxy and managing the colonies. The three colonies in the galaxy mainly produce mineral resources, and I need to allocate their output."

As expected, Huihuang mentioned the mining farm again.

Then Chen Ming could actually try asking it some suggestive questions.

If Huihuang really has any special ideas, he will try his best to answer them.

But you have to turn a few corners and use some cover to hide these hints within the surface problems.

It's best to ask a few more general questions before moving on to formal questions.

So Chen Ming said to Hui Hui: "I need to think about something, you can ask one first."

Chen Ming's sudden release surprised Hui Hui. After a pause, it asked Chen Ming: "Are you injured? Do you need medical treatment? We also have medicines for injuries caused by psychic energy."

Huihuang asked something that sounded simple, but in fact he was testing Chen Ming's condition and trying to figure out his physical condition.

Although Chen Ming is still quite greedy for medicine, if he dares to ask for Yu Hui, he will definitely dare to hit him with a stick and conduct a detailed examination to determine the medication policy.

So he answered casually without thinking at all: "I'm fine now and don't need treatment. Okay, it's my turn to ask."

"Brilliant, I remember that the galaxy you were in before was also attacked, right? Are you okay?"

Chen Ming's question would reveal that he was still connected to humanity.

But since Chen Ming can remotely control the spacecraft, anyone who is not a fool can guess that Yuhui has the ability to communicate remotely.

Even if there are any restrictions that cannot be controlled accurately due to the distance, it is always no problem to let the spacecraft sign a few words in space. It is the simplest thing to communicate.

It's just that Chen Ming has been performing well and seems to really want to join Yuhui and has no intention of resisting.

At least when Huihuang didn't mention the details of Chen Ming's troubles with any Yuhui.

This is Chen Ming's image in Yu Hui's eyes.

Now even if Yuhui knows that Chen Ming really keeps in touch with humans, the impact is basically gone, and it is even a good thing for Chen Ming.

Because Yuhui couldn't let him go, after the first time, the second extraction of spiritual energy would definitely be more secretive, making it even more difficult for Chen Ming to detect.

Maybe in some sleep, Chen Ming was tied to the extraction device again.

As for the humans, since the Gauss cannons had bombarded him in front, they would definitely not come back to save him.

But this is for Chen Ming.

As long as Chen Ming openly discloses the fact that he can communicate with humans, and at the same time does not say that humans will not come to save him.

Then Yuhui has to consider the possibility of the second coming of mankind.

Because from Yuhui's perspective, humans only chose to kill Chen Ming when the situation was bad and they had no choice but to do so.

Since Chen Ming is not dead, humans will either come to save him again or kill him again. There is no third possibility.

Although in fact humans do not know that Chen Ming is still alive.

As long as Chen Ming doesn't take the initiative to spread the news that he is alive, humans will never come again, unless the purpose is somewhere else, such as Kletka.

But Sunset didn't know this.

Therefore, under the premise that Chen Ming took the initiative to tell the situation, they must allocate part of their strength to guard against the human fleet that may appear again.

This can be regarded as Chen Ming's little calculation. The less power Yuhui concentrates around him, the greater the possibility of him escaping safely in the future.

Huihuang didn't need to think about the problems in Chen Ming's words for Yuhui as a whole. It only needed to answer Chen Ming's questions.

"I have been staying on that planet to control the internal operations of the galaxy, and I have not actually installed it on the spacecraft."

"When the human fleet launched a surprise attack, I immediately called for rescue and at the same time installed it on the ship and prepared for battle."

"But before I could actually take off, our capital ship support arrived."

"The human fleet chose to retreat."

It seems that the brilliant luck is still very good.

Chen Ming quickly accepted the brilliant answer, and suddenly asked with some whim, "Then your current position is already here with me?"

"No, I'm still in the original galaxy. Due to the massive losses of our individuals, I need to urgently deploy the production lines of each colony, and at the same time, I need to clean up the debris of the entire battlefield. The communication with you now is only long-distance communication."

Chen Ming then asked: "In other words, you are still on the planet I stayed on before, in that industrial colony?"

"Yes."

"I see."

After Chen Ming asked a few questions, the originally extremely stiff atmosphere between Chen Ming and Yu Hui did relax.

However, Chen Ming also knew that Yu Hui definitely just wanted to delay time, and the specific method of delay was not important.

So he acquiesced to Hui Hui's chatting with Chen Ming about various things, as long as he didn't expose important information.

But Chen Ming now wants to delay time.If Gamma Z wants to expand rapidly in another galaxy, it will take time to get the Alpha level afterglow that controls the galaxy.

Therefore, delaying time is also good for Chen Ming. The future direction of things will depend on the speed of preparation of Gamma Z and Afterglow.

"What are your arrangements for me in the future? If it is to return to the past, then there is no need to say it. I don't believe it even if you say it."

Brilliance fell silent for a moment.

Chen Ming also knew that this question would definitely not be answered, so he took advantage of the situation and said what he really wanted to say.

"I feel a little uncomfortable here in the experimental area. Let's go next door to talk."

"it is good."

Chen Ming walked out of the experimental area without any obstruction.

I saw that the industrial area diagonally across from the experimental area was gone. There were only many robots cleaning up the remains of the building, and it seemed that they were preparing to rebuild.

If it wasn't the Iron Mine Number, then the entire research institute and Chen Ming himself should be missing now.

Through the original work area, Chen Ming could still see that the dome outside, which was smashed by the Iron Ore and penetrated by the Gauss cannon, had been repaired.

Continue to maintain an environment suitable for human survival under the dome.

But Chen Ming is now completely unaffected by these seemingly thoughtful small favors.

After all, what Yu Hui did was like asking someone to have breakfast every day, but as he ate, he discovered that this person wanted his own kidney.

No matter how much you eat for breakfast, it is completely incomparable to kidneys... no, to life.

Chen Ming glanced at the robots in the work area twice before returning to the canteen in the living area.

Then he suddenly saw a group of robots hurriedly running to the refrigerator room behind the canteen.

"what happened?"

Huihuang immediately replied: "Your... pet, it just destroyed the wall of the dining area behind the canteen and is currently eating."

"Um……"

Xiao Shi had already found an opportunity to run away when Chen Ming was caught by Yu Hui.

It is a product of Fan Chao's laboratory. It has strong survivability and excavation capabilities, as well as the ability to suspend death and sleep in emergencies.

Let it roam around the institute at will without worrying about its safety.

Therefore, Chen Ming had never deliberately looked for it before. Anyway, when Chen Ming was about to leave, Xiao Shi would definitely burst out from some corner.

But now Chen Ming went directly to the storage room behind the canteen.

Then he saw a fist-sized hole on the wall of the storage room that was originally completely sealed and isolated and not open to Chen Ming.

The moment Chen Ming came here, the round pebble came out of the hole in a flash.

Surrounded by several robots, he jumped onto Chen Ming's shoulder with a dexterity completely inconsistent with his body shape.

It swallowed the last mouthful of fairy leaves exuding psychic fluctuations in its mouth, and began to grin at the robots.

However, the look of Xiaoshi determines that its grinning teeth are just showing off its cuteness.

When those robots arrived here, they also stopped moving under the control of Huihuang or other Yuhui individuals, allowing Chen Ming to take Xiaoshi away.

Chen Ming returned to the front of the canteen and picked up a meal.

But after seeing that the cup of fairy tree tea was missing from the meal, Chen Ming directly grabbed Xiaoshi and pinched him a few times when he realized something was wrong and wanted to run away.

However, Chen Ming doesn't care too much now. After all, the increase in spiritual energy he gained from drinking Fairy Tree tea during this period is not as much as the increase in daily exercise. The tea with only a few tea leaves is just a supplement.

It is completely incomparable to the increase in spiritual power after being assimilated and absorbed by Chen Ming.

And now Chen Ming can even see the name of the meal in front of him directly through the panel because of the spiritual nerve.

So it’s just a refill of tea, and it’s gone once it’s gone.

The most important gain is that he now has the ability to know the name of an item only through contact and no longer need to get it to the spacecraft.

Even to put it simply, this ability would allow him to never have to worry about eating food with something hidden in it.

Not to mention that Chen Ming still doesn’t know how long it will take Yuhui to prepare the second spiritual nerve. In the long run, it will only be half a month to a month at most. During this period, Chen Ming will only get more than 100 tablets at most. tea.

And the number of tea leaves that can make Xiaoshi become as round as he is now, with psychic energy fluctuations all over his body, is definitely more than these 100 pieces.

After picking up the meal, Chen Ming casually found a seat in the canteen and sat down.

Xiaoshi, who was placed on the table by Chen Ming, suddenly carefully spat out a few tea leaves from his cheek pouch and put them on the table, pushed them to Chen Ming, and then ate back the tea leaves with an expression that looked like he was looking at a fool.

He wouldn't compete with the hamster for food.

At this time, Chen Ming had no intention of continuing to talk to Hui Hui.

Instead, he buried his head and began to eat his first meal after being unconscious for several hours.

Because he needs time to think.

At present, Chen Ming has learned from Huihuang's words that Huihuang is still working on the planet he stayed on before, which means that it can contact the mining farms on the entire planet at any time.

This is what it hints at all the time.

But having said all that, Chen Ming would never take the initiative to let the few afterglows in the mining field come into contact with the glory.

So this matter still depends on whether Huihuang can give Chen Ming a convincing answer.

Chen Ming quickly finished his lunch and continued the previous topic by asking Hui Hui: "So how are you going to make me believe you? You don't really want to rely on you to convince me, do you?

Chen Ming's question had begun to contain some hidden meanings that he wanted to express in secret.

Since Brilliant has hinted so much before, how can Chen Ming believe that it really wants to have a more special communication with Chen Ming, rather than fishing.

Huihuang considered it for a moment and replied seriously: "Yes, because now it seems that the method I used to communicate is the best."

"You and I are chatting about various issues, but if it's G3, he should have been scolded by you...to a bloody head?"

"And if I can't convince you, it's even less possible for other individuals."

"So all things considered, I'm most likely to find a way to convince you."

"But we can't say exactly how long it will take."

Huihuang's answer was obviously that he had heard the hidden meaning in Chen Ming's words.

The meaning of what it says is also very clear, and it can give reasons for presentation, but it takes some time.

Then Chen Ming naturally took up the topic and said: "There must be an estimated time. There should also be a deadline when this task is assigned to you."

"Can you promise to convince me within the deadline? Or do you just want to talk to me beyond this deadline?"

Huihuang immediately responded: "The task was assigned to me directly. I cannot guarantee that it will be completed within the deadline, but I will try my best every moment."

The meaning of Hui Hui's words was a little unclear. Chen Ming simply answered Hui Hui's words and asked, "Just like you have been doing your best to manage the colony and build the mining site on the planet?"

"Yes, but there's more."

"Oh? Then I can't be here chatting with you 24 hours a day. How can you try to complete the task every moment?"

Huihuang did not answer Chen Ming's question, but Chen Ming already knew Huihuang's plan.

"Okay, I'm done asking. If you have any questions, ask them."

"it is good."

Huihuang began to ask Chen Ming various questions very methodically.

There were some irrelevant questions that Hui Hui asked himself, and there were also some questions that Yu Hui wanted to ask immediately.

Chen Ming naturally strictly controlled his answers and never revealed any answers that shouldn't be revealed.

After a few hours and several questions, the smell of gunpowder in Chen Ming's words gradually disappeared.

As for whether it was because of the glory or because Chen Ming took the initiative to restrain himself, only Chen Ming himself knows.

"Then let's do that for today."

After Chen Ming asked Hui Hui several irrelevant questions in succession, he knew that Yu Hui had discovered that they could not get any useful information out of him.

Still asking questions now is really just stalling for time.

Huihuang did not refuse Chen Ming's request.

After saying hello, he disappeared directly.

Chen Ming didn't care, but relied on the newly added functions after his spiritual power enhancement, and looked at the Qiling Nerve Extraction Device in several rooms.

From just now until now, there has been no movement from the extraction instrument, and Yuhui has not come for inspection and maintenance.

It seems that the device itself is not important, what is important is the spiritual nerve itself.

So Chen Ming just glanced at it and turned his attention away without studying it now.

He turned his attention to the planet he once stayed on, the three afterglows located in the mining field.

Chen Ming waited for about half an hour.

I saw a small transport spacecraft appearing over this mining field.

Chen Ming still made no move, just waiting quietly.

The transport spaceship landed at the warehouse behind the mining site, opened the armor on the outside of the storage compartment, and quickly transferred the ore accumulated in the mining site to the ship through the equipment.

Everything looks normal.

But suddenly, all the lighting equipment in the mining site flashed several times.

Then, Chen Ming saw the scene he wanted to see.

This small transport spacecraft flew to the location where the spacecraft was specially designed to replace the core of the mining farm, and directly connected the transport spacecraft to the control network of the mining farm.

The spacecraft installed inside is not an ordinary gamma-level core.

But it was the glory that had just spoken to Chen Ming.

In order to ensure that Chen Ming believed in it, it connected itself to the mining field where Chen Ming had removed Yuhui's work.

Then he was controlled by Chen Ming.

Chen Ming asked Hui Hui directly through his consciousness: "Do you consider this a surrender?"
