The Ross star system is 10.322 light-years away from Earth.
This is the edge of the Earth's federal territory. There are no colonial stars and there are no powerful alien creatures. The conditions are very difficult. Most people on Earth come here to mine rare sparkling stones on Planet 2.
This gemstone has a brighter appearance than diamonds and can emit light on its own. It can be called an upgraded version of diamonds and luminous pearls, and is deeply loved by women on earth.
However, because the quantity is scarce, the price is quite high.
In order to promote the development of the Ross star system, the federal government listed the No. 2 star system as an explorable planet. All people on earth can go and develop it, and whatever they find can be taken for themselves.
Therefore, a large number of adventurers who come here for wealth gather here, and the Internet also calls them quarryers.
In recent days, there have been fewer people going out to quarry than before, because everyone is watching the Extraordinary Youth Competition in the camp.
However, because it is too far away from the earth and needs to pass through dozens of quantum optical fiber transfer stations on the way, the images you can see are three days slower than those on the earth.
The first day of the second round on Earth has ended, and the first round of competition here in the Ross Galaxy has just begun.
"Damn, this Lin Yang is so pretentious. Do you want me to beat you to the ground in front of me?" In a mining camp, Jamie was talking to each other ten light years away, and at the same time he was saying He continued to insult the barrage with a very arrogant attitude.
He has been here for several years. He originally wanted to get rich overnight by digging up sparkling stones, but he ended up spending most of his time sifting soil, continuing to sift soil, and repeating sifting.
The unsatisfactory life made him love to be a keyboard warrior on the Internet. Only in this way can he feel the meaning of life.
"Damn it, when will I be able to return to earth and enjoy my time? These girls are more excited than the other!" Jamie watched the game and became angry.
At this moment, a huge muffled sound suddenly came from outside, which frightened Jamie.
"Fuck, what son of a bitch is shooting off cannons!"
After reacting, Jamie angrily got out of the tent, thinking that some bastard was blowing up the mountain. He was about to continue yelling, but was shocked by the scene in front of him.
A thousand-meter-long pitch-black spaceship stretches across the sky. The appearance of the spacecraft is different from anything on earth, especially the strange patterns and characters, which are full of alien atmosphere.
"Alien!" Jamie reacted quickly and guessed the origin of the spacecraft almost instantly.
Then, a surge of joy came over me.
The news that the Earth has received the inheritance of the Pride of the Stars is not a secret in the Ross star system.
In Jamie's view, aliens are equal to opportunities, and now is the best moment for him to make a comeback!
The only worry is how to communicate with these aliens. He doesn't have a mental communication device here.
Just when Jamie was anxious, a white light connected the spacecraft to the ground, and three tall aliens wearing thick white combat uniforms whose faces could not be seen walked out of the light pillar.
"Hello... hello, I'm from the United States of Earth..." Jamie raised his hands to say hello, but who knew that the leading alien walked up and inserted an instrument that looked like a toilet skewer directly? On top of his head.
"Memory reading..."
A string of voices that were incomprehensible to the people on earth sounded. The three aliens ignored Jamie, who was foaming at the mouth and twitching as if he was suffering from epilepsy. They just stood there quietly and accepted the extraction from Jamie's brain. memory fragments.
A few minutes later, an alien raised his head and looked at his companions: "It seems we have discovered a big fish this time. Bringing the Pride of the Stars back to the home planet will be a great achievement!"
"Colliers, don't we inform the home planet first?" Another alien asked cautiously, "This earth is not an ordinary intermediate civilization. Now it has been inherited and many people have been promoted."
"Fleming, do you know why you were sent to live in a foreign land with us despite being born into a noble family?"
Fleming looked serious: "It's to expand the territory."
Colliers and another companion laughed: "Your hypocritical elder brother must have told you this stupid thing, and that's right. If he didn't fool you away, how could he take over the entire family?
Learn to be flexible and don't be so stubborn. If things here are sent back to the home planet in advance, can we still share the credit related to the Pride of the Stars?
Those guys in the Galaxy Military Headquarters are crazy about trying to get military glory. We pioneers are stepmothers to begin with, and the leaders are still undervalued in the Elder Council. If we are really robbed of our credit here, there is no way to complain. Go! "
"I... understand." Fleming nodded, finally no longer accepting death as before.
"Notify the kids that we'll rest here for half a day and go straight to that bullshit solar system at night. As long as they take the Pride of the Stars and the spacecraft doesn't assemble within three days, they can do whatever they want!"
After giving the order, Colliers bent down and roughly pulled the memory retrieval device from Jamie's head, bringing out a pool of red and white liquid.
Jamie fell to the ground and was already lifeless, but his ferocious face and curled fingers proved that he must have suffered tremendous pain before death.
But Colliers seemed to turn a blind eye to such a tragic situation.
The Pavia Senatorial State has always carried out a wave of shocking killings before considering surrendering when it expands. Except for the Madonnas who are full and have nothing to do, no one will feel sorry for these low-level humanoid creatures no matter how they are dealt with.

"Why don't you sleep at night?"
In the manufacturing room, Lin Yang was assembling his fourth mechanical warrior when he felt someone approaching from behind. From the steady footsteps, he knew it was Zhuo Xuan.
"I feel restless and can't sleep." Zhuo Xuan held a bottle of carbonated drink in his hand and frowned.
From dinner to now, he has been feeling inexplicable anxiety. It may be related to tomorrow's game. After all, several players in his group are very strong.
More than half of the second round has been played, and there are still about ten games left tomorrow for the third round of 1V1 matches, which will start as soon as the afternoon.
"If you can't sleep, just read a book. If you have time, you have to study." Lin Yang chuckled, and the work at hand was not affected while chatting with Zhuo Xuan.
"Forget it, let's go back to bed and lie down. You can't do it if you don't have energy." Zhuo Xuan rubbed his face, took a few deep breaths, forced himself to calm down, and then returned to the room.
With no one around, Lin Yang continued to devote himself to manufacturing.
