Who still falls in love in the interstellar era?

Chapter 74 About the Future (still a [-]-word chapter)

The next day, the Jackdaw left hyperspace early in the morning and began routine maintenance.

The four people on the ship gathered in the living room for breakfast.

Wang Chao: "Let's discuss what to do next. In order to take care of Lily who does not have network equipment, please use language to communicate."

Liefeng glanced at Lily, who was sitting next to the porthole, and said with a bad smile: "There is one person who cannot join the online chat room and cannot see the super cool things shared by everyone in the chat room. Who is it? You~"

Wang Chao: "She is my girlfriend, and what do you call me?"

The gale was stupefied.

Wang Chao: "You choose between not calling me foster father or calling her foster mother."

Liefeng immediately made a choice: "Mom!"

"Okay, good daughter." Lily happily accepted.

Wang Chao was speechless.

Nimiao shook her head: "You guys are really leisurely. Obviously our situation is not good now. Although we replenished helium-[-] at the Doyle Space Station and purchased some prosthetic parts, the high-quality ones used by Wang Chao and I The parts for the prosthetic body were not purchased.

"If we encounter a few more high-intensity battles, we will have to use a prosthetic body that is one level worse.

"If you want to buy a high-end prosthetic body, you have to go to a civilized central area, but thanks to someone talking freely, we are now big celebrities."

Nimiao paused and added: "By the way, we only have loot now, no money."

Wang Chao: "In fact, we can consider using the name of Organization X to deceive and abduct."

"Speaking of this, I have to mention Uncle Kil, the local boss of Doyle Space Station. He wanted to insert a new expansion module into our spaceship, but someone refused." Nimiao looked at Wang Chao and blinked.

Wang Chao spread his hands and said, "Aren't I afraid of being seen as a problem? Now that I think about it, I should bite the bullet and ask for something. Anyway, the lie will be exposed soon."

Lily: "Will it be exposed?"

Wang Chao: "Yes, think about it, we were plotted by two companies in New Eden, and then we had to flee in confusion, and even abandoned the boat at Nimiao's place. The people in New Eden Just look at the ship we abandoned and you will know that there is no such thing as Organization X."

"Yes, he also left key information on the ship," Nimiao added, "a paper star map, because he was afraid that he would not be able to find his old friends after his computer was formatted. Now these I guess all of my old friends have been approached by legal mercenaries from Galaxy Entertainment and Pan Pacific Pictures."

Wang Chao scratched his head: "If you think about it carefully, I really feel sorry for my old friends."

Although he is "that" Wang Chao's old friend.

Lily looked at everyone's expressions and concluded: "So, although the bosses of the space station were respectful to us when we were at Doyle Space Station, now we are just like rats on the street?"

Wang Chao: "Not necessarily, after all, the information transmission between stars is so slow. But... it will be fast."

Liefeng slapped the table: "Then what we have to do next is not very simple? Let's make our strength stronger! The fastest way for us to become stronger is to absorb new superpowers. If our adoptive father absorbs one, we can have one more. Now you can only have two superpowers on the field at the same time, if you suck one more, you can have three at the same time!"

Liefeng's description sounded like Wang Chao and the others were participating in some sports competition, but her explanation was unexpectedly simple and easy to understand.

Liefeng continued: "Look, now that Organization Do you know what organization that is?"

Wang Chao: "According to Uncle Kil, the superpower belongs to the Guiyi Sect. As for the authenticity... my intuition tells me that it is credible. After all, they were frightened by Organization X at that time."

"That's easy," Liefeng knocked on the table, "Everyone knows that the headquarters of the Unification Church is in Solaris. Kill them, kill all their superpowers, and turn them into our power!"

Suddenly, a three-dimensional star map projection unfolded on the desktop. Wang Chao was very sure that he did not operate it, so he glanced at Nimiao.

Nimiao spoke at this moment: "This is our current position, in the fourth quadrant of the Milky Way. This is the position of Solaris, in the second quadrant of the Milky Way. And this is the range that our current Helium III can run."

Liefeng looked at the eye-catching marks on the star map and sighed: "The Milky Way is really vast."

Lily agreed: "Yes."

Wang Chao held his cheek and looked at Nimiao: "I still have 150 hours of trouble-free full-power activity. I should be able to fight as intensely as the Doyle Space Station five or six times. How is your situation?"

Nimiao: "I'm much better than you. After all, most of the time I don't need to activate synaptic acceleration, which consumes the most life of the prosthetic body. Where is our husky?"

It seems that Nimiao also mistook Gale for a husky.

Liefeng patted his chest: "I just changed this outfit before I went to fight the Italians. I can still build it for a long time!"

Out of curiosity, Wang Chao called up her maintenance record this morning and cursed: "Bullshit, you've been overloaded, and your body condition is the worst among the three of us!"

Liefeng laughed awkwardly.

Lily suddenly said: "By the way, maybe my super power can improve the condition of your body?"

The three prosthetics looked at Lily together.

Lily: "Uh, didn't I say before that my super power can...right?"

Wang Chao: "But you don't understand physics, let alone electromechanics and automatic control, so you don't know how to improve the performance of the prosthetic body, right?"

Lily shrugged: "Maybe... it can make the machine feel better?"

What Mechanicus?
Wang Chao: "Forget it, give it a try, it won't hurt anyway. Lily, come here and I'll teach you the technique."

It's not that Wang Chao doesn't want to omit the practice of passing on the exercises. The key is that this practice has been successful before. In order to prevent problems, he can only do it every time.

After all, now that there are no real scientists to study all this, whether it is superpowers or "Tao", it is all metaphysics.

It didn't take much to transfer the skills, and Lily's mechanical rabbit appeared in Wang Chao's field of vision again.

Lily: "What should I sing?"

Wang Chao: "Since the purpose is to make the machine feel better, how about giving it something that the machine will like?"

Lily looked at Wang Chao blankly: "What will the machine like? I don't know!"

"Do you think I know?" Wang Chao asked.

Lily: "You are the boss of Organization X!"

"Organization X does not exist!"

Liefeng: "Wait a minute, wouldn't it be over if I just ask the person with the highest degree of mechanization on site?"

The three of them looked at each other, and finally looked at Nimiao together.

"Ah?" Nimiao pointed at herself, "Ask me? How would I know?"

Wang Chao: "Just tell me a song you like. I mean you like it and she can sing it too."

After all, Lily is a natural person, and she has to learn songs no matter how fast she learns them.

Nimiao sighed and said, "Let's play the sound of silence. It's the famous song from the old movie "The Graduate"."

Lily: "The insert song from Star Wars: The Dead and the Daredevil 5?" Wang Chao was speechless. He seriously doubted that as long as it was an old song or an old movie in his hit zone, the movie "that" Wang Chao acted in must have been used as a joke.

Lily began to chant.

After singing two lines, Gale shouted: "I feel like it really works!"

"Shut up." Wang Chao slapped Liefeng on the forehead.

Lily was indeed a professional singer. She was not affected by the strong wind at all and sang continuously and affectionately.

Her superego rabbit dances gently around the strong wind as she sings.

Liefeng pursed his lips, looking like he was having a hard time holding back his words.

Nimiao looked at all this with an expression of disbelief that it would be useful.

Finally, Lily finished her song and turned to look at Wang Chao, as if asking, "How was it?"

Liefeng nodded repeatedly: "Yeah, it sounds good."

Her demeanor and movements were very similar to Li Yunlong who had just listened to the performance of the 7th Division Military Band.

Wang Chao: "Liefeng, go to the maintenance room and let the computer evaluate your body condition."

"Okay!" Liefeng stood up and ran away in a hurry.

Nimiao: "It won't be useful. Just make the machine happy and increase its service life or something. If this works, then technicians won't need to repair it anymore. They can just worship God every day and be done with it."

Just as Wang Chao was about to reply, he saw Li Feng rushing into the maintenance room through the spacecraft's computer, and he couldn't wait to lie down on the maintenance rack.

The computer begins executing standard evaluation procedures.

Nimiao: "Let's go back to the problems we are facing now. It is impossible to remain anonymous. We must all be celebrities now. We can't tell people what is going on even if we go to pick up jobs. Maybe there are still many people who are coveting us. Super-powered organizations and forces dig holes for us to jump out of.”

Wang Chao: "Indeed. From now on, there will really be no one you can trust."

"So I think we might as well find a planet, explore the mineral deposits, and then settle on it." Nimiao said, "When the prosthetic body breaks down, we can replace it with a low-performance prosthetic body that can be printed by Greyhound's printer. Until one day the planet is destroyed. Large colonial companies are interested in it.”

Lily: "Disarm and return to the field?"

Just as Wang Chao was about to answer, the evaluation report of the machine at Liefeng came out.

Early this morning, the Greyhound-class computer's evaluation of her prosthetic body showed that the trouble-free operation time was only 76 hours, and now the evaluation data is actually [-] hours!A full sixteen hours more!

Nimiao was also reading the report and exclaimed: "I'll go, it's really effective? How is it possible!"

Lily could not see the evaluation report through the starlight network inside the ship, so she could only ask with a look of astonishment: "Eh? Is it effective? Is it really effective?"

Wang Chao looked up at her: "Don't you think it will be effective?"

Lily: "Uh...it's hard to describe. I feel like it will be effective, but I also think it's ridiculous."

Wang Chao summarized: "Your rationality thinks it's ridiculous, but your sensibility thinks it will be effective?"

"That's right!" Lily nodded repeatedly, "That's it! You are so smart, I can't summarize it like that."

Wang Chao and Nimiao looked at each other.

Nimiao: "But it's just sixteen more hours, so it can't fundamentally solve the problem."

Wang Chao: "Of course, after all, wear is real wear. The electromagnetic muscles and bearings all have a service life."

At this time, Li Feng came back, and he came up and held Lily's hand: "Mom! Sing a few more songs to the child!"

Wang Chao noticed it, so she emphasized that anyone with breasts is a mother and has no moral integrity.

Nimiao continued to talk about what just happened: "We still need to think of a way, at least find a place to pick up the work, and then we have to go to the core star area of ​​civilization to ensure the access to high-performance prosthetics. The good news is that our superpowers are real. He has super powers and the spacecraft is in good condition..."

Wang Chao: "We made a lot of money selling scrap metal at Doyle Space Station. I feel like we can replicate it."

Nimiao stopped and looked at Wang Chao: "What are you going to do?"

Wang Chao: "As you just said, there must be many organizations that covet superpowers and want to dig holes for us to jump out of. In this case, shouldn't we just defend and counterattack and treat them as a source of wealth?"

Nimiao frowned: "Huh?"

Wang Chao: "In addition, Liefeng also said just now that as long as we catch people with superpowers and seize the 'Tao' from them, we can actually become stronger. Lily's singing can limit the enemy and increase herself at the same time. You can use the air to Invasion, strong wind..."

Lily looked at Gale: "She is useless."

"I'm useless!" Liefeng held his head in his hands, "So I am everyone's shortcoming and weakness!"

Lily: "Ah, it's not like she has no eggs, she's just useless."

Don't drive suddenly!What about the character!What about your innocent persona?

Wang Chao waved his hand: "Let's stop talking about this. It's true that the headquarters of the Guiyi Church is far away from us, but in fact, we still have a clue about super powers."

Next, Wang Chao shared with everyone how he obtained the "Tao".

Nimiao held her chin: "So, you think the middleman who issued the mission is suspicious?"

Wang Chao: "Yes. Look, I delivered a strange package, and the next task was a pit. I should die in this pit. Don't you think it's a coincidence?"

Nimiao: "Looking at it this way, Galaxy Entertainment and Pantai Pictures may also be related to superpowers. Where did you send that package?"

Wang Chao: "Sirius III, we deliver the goods there. The consignee doesn't care at all whether the goods have been opened. He just takes the goods and leaves. I thought the package was originally an 'empty express'. This situation is quite satisfactory. Commonly used, it is mainly used to make excuses from east to west, and the things that really need to be transported take other routes.

"If we follow this clue to investigate, we might be able to dig out the real organization that has been researching superpowers."

Nimiao: "But, would it be too dangerous to rush back to New Eden now... Hey, no! Maybe because of the darkness under the lamp, it would be quite safe to go back. Those who are following should all pursue them outside of New Eden. went."

Wang Chao: "I know that the middleman's stronghold is in Ophiuchus [-]. If we want to go, we have to find a way to solve the problem of adding helium [-], otherwise we will be discovered halfway. In New Eden, he is one of the most powerful local snakes. One."

Liefeng intervened: "Wait a minute, who are you talking about? Can you explain it to people who are not familiar with the situation in New Eden?"

"We're talking about Vittorio Palcino." Nimiao announced the name casually.

Wang Chao added: "My old acquaintance, one of the most powerful middlemen in New Eden, is said to be the most moral. But he was the one who sold me."

Nimiao: "Not only did he sell you, but your prosthetic doctor also sold your prosthetic parameters? It's a shame that you and him still have so many years of friendship. In our line of work, it's not uncommon to be sold anytime." .”

Liefeng agreed: "Indeed."

Lily, the only one outside the situation, looked back and forth at the three people who seemed to have reached a consensus.
