The Star Knight

The soft voice of the prince of the opera flows in the cabin of the era-IV, reminding Opal of the large flaming flowers on the crimson star.

Although it is only a small battleship, the space inside is also very spacious for one person. From the B-11 star to the constellation of Serpent, for an ordinary spaceship without its own jump function, the starry sky gate is like countless in the universe. Platform, walking to the platform also takes a certain amount of time-about five days.

There is a self-contained living water converter in the cabin, which is a dormant cyanobacteria produced by Water Blue Star. After the energy is burned, it generates water and exhaust gas emitted in space, and water supplies green algae for growth.

The spacecraft itself has light energy collection plates on its outer shell, enough to collect the light scattered from all stars in the universe.The cyanobacteria box absorbs the carbon dioxide exhaled by the cabin members through simple photosynthesis to grow and reproduce rapidly. Each growth cycle is 12 hours. Finally, it is put into the food machine for decomposition and processing to produce finished products.

There are a lot of suspended ice in the dark space. Whenever an ice meteorite approaches, the spacecraft will automatically collect it and filter it to store it.The carbon dioxide exhaled by a person is enough to provide the cyanobacteria for their own supply. In other words, even if the spacecraft is completely depleted of energy, the passengers can continue to live without being starved to death.

Of course, for decades, the taste of floating in the vast universe for hundreds of years is absolutely uncomfortable.But if this accident happens, you can still use the radio communicator to send a rescue signal.The long interstellar journey is boring, and Opal regrets not buying a little game chip to pass the time.

He was half lying on the swivel chair in front of the console, looking at the starry sky outside the porthole. From this angle, the red flame star was like a burning ball of fire. The stellar piercing eruption was like numerous tentacles. The longest was thousands. Ten thousand kilometers away.

Opal stared boredly at the E7. The small robot fell back and forth under the power of his conviction, kicked a tumble on the console, but was able to immediately restore balance and stand up. The track moved along the smooth alloy console. .

E7, like the small battleship of Time VI, is a relic left by his mother.

When she was a child, her mother went to mine, and Opal did not take care of her. She removed some parts from the spacecraft and made this little robot for him.E7 accompanied him throughout his childhood, with primary intelligence, and the structure inside is very fine.Opal was so big that he only opened it once, two years after his mother's death.The battery inside the E7 is damp, and after the Opal is disassembled, it does not dare to disturb. It does not understand the circuit and the intricate chip.

A few days later E7 miraculously recovered, as if to prove that his mother had not abandoned him.

Opal may have thought that the control center of the E7 was assembled using the intelligent computer chip on the spaceship.No wonder the Times-VI spacecraft does not have a little intelligence.

"Ah--!" Opal yelled boredly.

Everything in the entire cabin floated in the power of his faith, and fell back again.

Opal lacks taste: "E7, turn off the gravity system."

So he floated lightly and flew around the cabin.

"Love is a tear of a lover..." The voice of the opera prince Ledgerson echoed in the cabin. This was the most famous song in his concert. The lyrics were created by an ancient poet before the light era.

"Even if I'm locked in walnuts, I'm still the king of infinite stars..."

Opal will sing as he hears, hovering in the control cabin with his eyes closed.

"Close to the starry sky gate, prepare for a jump, enter the starry sky gravitational field, sixty, fifty-nine..."

Opal hurriedly turned on the gravity system, and with a clatter, a ball of water and a cup hit his head.

"E7!" Opal said: "Ready to jump! This is your first time!"

Opal sat on a swivel chair, fastened his seat belt, took a deep breath, his heart thumped, and a huge, ring-shaped golden relic appeared outside the cabin.

A white light illuminates around the metal giant ring, spreads out the solar metal plate, and the spacecraft slows down, enveloped by a layer of white light.

The star gate separates the inner and outer rings, the current is chaotic, and Opal holds his breath, hearing the navigation electronic voice saying: "Successful docking, data transmission."

The white light around the starry sky door dimmed, followed by a layer of red flashing lights, electronic soundtrack: "Successful positioning, countdown to transition, ten, nine, eight..."

Opal said to himself: "Want to go through it? What if it is a space carrier? This door doesn't look big."

The six arcs that followed the Star Gate covered the Age-VI battleship. With a hum, the spacecraft disappeared in space.

"Ah--" Opal couldn't help shouting, the starry sky outside the cabin was all converted into dense light, and the speed was getting faster and faster. This is the junction of five-dimensional space and four-dimensional space?!I seemed to be pulled into a line by the power of hyperspace, and then returned to normal in an instant, sitting in a chair and panting repeatedly.

The long snake constellation of 14 million light-years away, in the quiet universe, the space seems to have collapsed, the starry sky door is lit with white light, and the material is like a ripple that bursts out of the water, and there is a buzz, the whole spaceship takes a jump The arc of energy burst out of the space fault.

"Successful jump." Time-VI's icy voice said: "Accelerate navigation."

The spaceship energy thruster erupted, dragging its tail flames with a bang, and flew towards the Ares galaxy.

"Are you here?" Opal asked with some palpitations. "Is this here?"

He unfastened his seat belt, walked to the stern, and saw the starry sky door gradually away in the distance, and he was relieved.Stretched out and opened the partition.In the small warehouse, there are half a ton of rutile spar-about 20,000 energy units.

Rector said that the unit of energy is no longer in circulation as the old currency, and the interstellar credit point is a new currency.It regulates inflation and material regulation through the Universe Economic Summit. Of course, this is limited to the Empire and the Republic.Interstellar credit points are not only used as cash expenditures, but can also be used to apply for currency overdrafts based on a person’s property and social value.When all galaxies are in danger of inflation, Union Bank will reduce the overdraft limit.

In addition, some planets also stubbornly use their old currency, but in most of the star domains, the Union Bank branch will provide the exchange function of credit points and the planet’s currency.

Opal intends to open an account, sell the ore somewhere, sell in the mercenary kingdom, get familiar with the environment, and hone himself.The Ares galaxy is completely strange, but he is not afraid at all, but he is full of inner vision and excitement for the future.

The spacecraft slowed down again, and passed through the outer space station of the galaxy. The space station here was different from the crimson planet. It released a suspended alloy magnetic rod, without generating any light and arc. The six magnetic rods locked the spacecraft.

"The weather is clear," said the lazy man's voice. "Please stop your steps and fill out the Ares Galaxy entry application form."

"You... hello." Opal is far away from the B-11 star for five days. He hasn't spoken to anyone and is very excited.

"Hello." The man said: "This is Andrea, the inspector of extragalactic space."

...

"Fill in your entry application form." Andre reminded.

Opal recovered, and quickly opened the navigation platform, the light screen slowly emerged, transmitting the personal information he had prepared for a long time.

Andre said: "Mr. Opal from Chiyan galaxy, the identity of the ore consultant of Holens Mining Co., Ltd., the star is... Crimson star. What is the price of the Ares galaxy?"

Opal said: "Uh... I want to see it."

Andre said: "Travel?"

Opal Road: "By the way find a job."

Andre said: "Part-time job? Your job looks good..."

Opal said: "Occasionally do something else, I want to be a mercenary."

Andre seemed a bit strange, and finally said: "Please pay attention to your words and deeds in the mercenary country. Welcome to the Ares galaxy. Holens has no branch in the local galaxy, and the main star is in need of mineral talents."

"After entering the country, you can pick up a travel guide at the exit of the apron. I wish you a good time with Ares."

"Thank you," Opal said politely.

The gravitational field of the space station was withdrawn, and the spacecraft entered the range of the gravitational field of the star after three hours of sailing. The star appeared from space in a mottled dark blue color. Another space station flew, and a violent voice sounded in the radio communication: "Hey! "

Opal knows that this is the second level of the planet, busy saying: "Hello."

"This unlucky ghost weather." said in the communicator: "Is there any contraband in the inspection? Boy. Warn you, it is best to throw away the drugs and dark energy batteries immediately."

Opal said: "No." He started the information transmission, sent the transportation list through the wireless interface, and the space station released countless flashing silver iron pieces, rotating around the spacecraft.

"Red pattern spar?" said skeptically in the communicator: "What the hell is this?"

Opal Road: "An energy mineral."

Communicator: "What do you bring to the star?"

Opal said: "I don't have... money, I plan to exchange some money for it."

"Ah," sneered at the communicator: "No one will ask for it. Take care of your belongings. If you explode, you will be screwed off."

Opal said blankly: "Okay, I know."

The communicator said: "I wish you a pleasant journey, and don't be slagged by today's lightning."

Opal: "..."

The metal sheet evacuated, and Opal passed through the second level to enter the atmosphere of the star. He was getting closer and closer. He finally found that the dark blue seen in space was not the landform of the star, but the thick dark cloud that wrapped the planet!

He passed through the clouds reflecting the stars of the distant God of War, and rushed into the dark night sky of blazing stars. Thunder and lightning were everywhere. The spacecraft opened the protective layer and approached the apron.

Lightning and rainstorms covered the entire planet. Every lightning was thousands of miles away, and the sky and the sky were joined together. The tiny spacecraft trembled in the thunderstorm. Opal was attracted all the attention by the sight, leaning to the porthole to look out.

The transparent apron shell on the ground opens.

The radio waves rustled and blurred, the spacecraft entered the apron space, the outer shell was closed, and the inner shell was opened.

The ground robot flashes to guide the parking position, the wet era-VI battleship is parked in the corner, the door is opened, Opal removes the star map, locks the hatch, puts the star map in a backpack, carrying E7 in one hand, back Holding the big sword that Rector had left him, he walked out of the airport, took a deep breath, and smiled.

"Hey, do you need to scrub the spaceship?" A young boy came immediately and asked enthusiastically: "Wax your spaceship. We have the best service! Come on, sir, your spaceship is so beautiful! Ah, the silver color is mottled, It’s like a gleaming seven-color scale fish. How much does it cost to buy?”

Opal busy said: "Hello, my name is Opal. My mother left the spaceship to me."

"Hello!" said the boy: "My name is Xun."

Opal greeted him, Xun brought a small robot around, diligently waxed the spaceship, Xun took Opal's shoulder, and smiled: "Your mother has a good taste and has a sense of the times."

Opal laughed: "It's name is Times. Let me see. Can I take your car?"

Xundao: "Of course, did you come to travel? Or did you come to make a living? The mercenary kingdom welcomes every self-reliant member of the Star Alliance, where gold is everywhere... Get on the car and get on the car."

This is Opal set foot on a strange planet alone.

Everything in front of me is full of unknown and attractive. The robots here are completely different from those on the crimson star. They are like discs, sticking to the ground and flying around, they will step on it if they are not careful.

The apron is also much shabby, and the tattered, and there are many containers stacked in the corners.

Opal got on a fast car and passed countless strange and strange spaceships. The spaceships here are almost no two. They are all the same, with exaggerated decoration and particle spray paint patterns. There are still bright red cars parked near the ground entry exit. A giant spaceship with nude women painted on it.

Xun Dao: "This is the special spaceship'flame red lips' of the Twelve Nebula."

Opal looked startled, jumped off the ground car, and the sound drowned him.

The waiting room was full of noisy passengers, and people were scolding everywhere. Opal was so dizzy and dizzy, and asked: "Xun, can I ask where is the newspaper? I still want to exchange some currency. What happened here?" ?"

"The newspaper has a self-service machine for you to enter in the lounge on the west side. You only need a credit or a martyr coin. The renewal is three yuan per month. Today the weather is so damn bad, most of the flashing electromagnetic storms have to last for ten hours. The gravity of the star is 1.2 standard coefficients, don't run around, be careful of fractures!"

Xun took Opal and pushed away the noisy people in front of him, shouting: "change money to find Union Bank IRC! Well, your spaceship is finished, please accept it!"

Xun took out a pocket holographic projector, took Opal to a corner with few people, pressed the button, and projected the sight of his spaceship.

The other robot stayed in the apron, and the camera directed the Opal's spaceship, transmitting images.

"Are you still satisfied!" Xun gave Opal a glance and took out another small machine in his pocket. It was a credit card machine and smiled heartily: "I only charge you three thousand credit points and wish you a long life!"

Opal: "..."

fast:"……"

The two stood still for a moment, and Opal said, "Want to collect money? Why didn't you say it early?"

Xun's complexion immediately changed, screaming: "You think it's white to wipe the spaceship for you?! Wouldn't it be a problem for your brain! Was it irradiated?"

Opal: "..."

The stranded guests who were arguing around the information desk all around were noticed by Xun's voice and turned to look at them curiously.

Opal said: "I don't have any money on hand now, I don't even have a card. Wait a moment..."

That sentence immediately clicked on the barrel, and all the people around laughed and quickly said angrily: "Do you want to pay the bill?! Hello! Hand over your card! This is not..."

Opal said: "Come with me and give you money later."

Xundao: "There is nothing to wait for, I'm very busy! Pay the bills now..." He said, grabbing Opal with his hand and going to flip his backpack. Someone around whistled and had a good expression.

Opal said: "I really don't have any money... what do you want to do! Don't make trouble!"

There was a very important star chart in the backpack. As soon as he started, Opal immediately blocked him. The young boy had great strength. The two immediately wrestled together. The spectator gave up an empty space and screamed loudly in grief.

"What are you doing!" A police officer who maintained order came and shouted: "This ghost weather is bad enough! Damn! Don't fight here! Go to the police department to fight!"

Immediately raised his hands and stepped back, said: "I'm going to fuck to the police! This kid actually blame!"

Opal was almost speechless. There were people everywhere. The police officer kicked them all and was taken away by the angry crowd. There were blushing and thick neck quarrels everywhere.

"Wait!" Opal said.

Xun embraced his arms and looked at Opal.

Opal raised his hand and pressed a few times, impulsively, wanting to collect in front of him, control his consciousness, a sentence without money.Finally, the idea was dispelled.

"I need to change money." Opal said: "The currency of the place where I live is different from yours. Come with me and go back to my spaceship."

So the two returned to the apron.The gravity of this planet is very large, and Opal just felt a little bit uncomfortable with Xun. It feels that the people on this planet are very barbaric, even more barbaric than the miners on B-11.

Opal opened the unloading door of the rear cabin and showed Xun rhinestone to Xun, asking: "Do you know the energy point? The ore passed through before, this kind of ore is of high purity, about 100 to 120 points per kilogram. Energy point, there are a total of 520 kg..."

Xun immediately straightened his eyes and said for three seconds, "Give me all! You won't be charged for wiping the spaceship!"

Opal said coldly: "What a joke?" He finally realized that the guy in front of him was pitting him, and said: "You take me to change, and you will get more money when the time comes. Don't force me to do it, you are not mine opponent."

Xun looked at him from head to toe, and Opal took out a box of ore and took the initiative to throw it into the car, making a loud noise and saying, "Go."

Opal can lift a box of nearly 30 kilograms with one hand, and is still on a planet where the gravity exceeds 20% of the standard factor. He quickly knows that he is not his opponent, so he has to take him to the car and say, "I will take you."

Opal tilted his legs and said: "Don't take me to private transactions, it must be an official exchange point."

Xun had no way to pull him and the ore to the apron office of Union Bank IRC. Opal went to exchange it, which was unexpectedly good luck. The separate window here also charged all equivalent energy exchanges from all over the universe. .

Opal handed over the ore to purify energy. The ore in the large atomic furnace behind the service window was crushed into powder, and the energy points rose slowly.

Opal said: "Hello, all planets have IRC?"

The clerk did not know the gender, and was a strange creature with six eyes. He said in a hoarse voice: "Aha, yes, sir, but this energy exchange will only be established at the apron branch of each planet. Coin Window, you know, too many people come to Lixing to entrust the mission, we always have to face strange guests. Of course, your ore is also very rare, if I am not wrong, you should be from the Red Flame Galaxy. "

Opal nodded: "Yes, only the Chiyan galaxy produces."

The clerk said: "The exchange here can only be cashed out according to the energy value. Unfortunately, you should be able to sell a good price in the Republic Galaxy. Are you sure you want to exchange all?"

Opal said: "Change it." He asked again: "What happened outside?"

"Magnetic lightning storms, passenger trains are stranded, you're really unlucky." The clerk said: "You have to come so many times a month, like the beauty of the mood... Please press your fingerprints here, IRC will be in A 4% processing fee is drawn from your energy cash out, please rate my service evaluation..."

Opal commented on him with satisfaction, and took a thin card handed out from the window. The clerk said, "Your rhinestone mine is 31.53 kilograms, totaling 3,300. Point energy, according to today's market, equivalent to 15400 points of interstellar credit points, can be exchanged to the next window to convert into martyr coins, this is a temporary card, can be used with your fingerprint, good luck."

Opal went dizzy and went to the next window to exchange for the Rising Star coins. An alien lady in front of a slime animal carcass scarf shouted impatiently and even quarreled in the bank.

Opal submitted the ID card, opened an account, then handed over the temporary information card, bound the account to its own ID card, and set up fingerprint extraction, created a new password and password, paid service fees, all After finishing it, it was like having fought a battle, came over and said to Xun sitting in the lobby: "Now there is money, pay the bill."

Xun immediately smiled, handed out the credit card machine, Opal swiped the card, and paid him a hundred yuan Lixing coins, said: "Thank you."

"Have you sent a beggar!" said quickly: "Hundred Yuan Liecoin? You forgot what you said..."

Opal is not stupid, and said: "It costs only one yuan to buy a newspaper. Will you charge me 3,000 for a spaceship?"

Xun said: "You're a galaxy in a remote galaxy! You don't know that it would cost a thousand to wipe the spacecraft's materials! You are waiting here, I want to call the police!"

Opal Road: "Please, I wish you a long life."

Quickly shouted: "Look and see!"

Quickly left, Opal exhaled.

However, Xun walked to another group of people standing outside the bank, and Opal immediately felt wrong. Most of them were going to make trouble again. These people were called when they changed their money just now?

"Wait!" Opal said: "If I take back my words, I decide to pay you three thousand as a reward for bringing me to the bank."

Xun turned around again and said, "Count your acquaintance..."

Opal put Xun on his shoulders, turned his back to the group of people, stared at his eyes, and applied the power of faith, saying, "You received three thousand."

Xun Biao Mao said: "You only gave me a hundred!"

Opal said fiercely: "You received three thousand! Remember to me, you received three thousand!"

Xun first was stunned, then his eyes flickered for a moment, and nodded: "I... received three thousand? Right? I received so much?"

Opal insisted: "Yes, I gave you three thousand just now."

Nodded slowly, a thoughtful look.

Opal said politely: "Goodbye." He immediately shook hands with him and left the apron.
