Seeing Zhang Xiaoman's expression, Ziwei was slightly stunned, and then showed a knowing smile.
"Don't worry, I said I won't care about this matter, so I won't be able to interfere. Although 50 billion is a lot, I am still a middle-level controller. It's not like I can't get the money."
Seeing how unconcerned she was, Zhang Xiaoman's tight strings relaxed a little.
Judging from this brief encounter, this woman's behavior was a bit special. To put it bluntly, she gave him a feeling of being paranoid.
Generally speaking, the credibility of what such a guy says is quite high.
Moreover, as the other party said, she is a mid-level controller with the same level of strength as Naifaya. To such a person, 50 billion star coins may really be nothing.
However, it is necessary to be on guard against others.
Zhang Xiaoman also understands a truth, that is, money moves people's hearts.
Some things can't just be taken at face value, and some people know people well but don't know their hearts.
The greed of human nature may not be inapplicable to aliens.
He will never let down his guard until he fully understands the specific value of 50 billion star coins.
After all, it was only the woman who was speaking from beginning to end, and his understanding of the world was very limited.
But now Zhang Xiaoman has no good solution. This woman is very powerful. Not only does she have the power of a mid-range control level, but also the four runic buffs make him very afraid.
Even though Ziwei is seriously injured now, who knows if she has any back-ups left behind, and if she rashly turns against her, Zhang Xiaoman is not sure of victory.
Since there is no guarantee of victory, he will not take risks.
After all, he has the magical skill of infinite teleportation as a retreat. At worst, he can just run away when he encounters danger in the future.
The conversation between the two ended here, and the two sides brought the topic back to the current action plan in a tacit understanding.
According to Ziwei's wishes, she needs to return to the headquarters of the Dark Spirit Star Alliance as soon as possible and report what happened here to the Spirit Guardian Organization.
Zhang Xiaoman was very curious about this spiritual protection organization, and after asking about it, he learned that it turned out to be an existence similar to the three major temples in the Star Alliance.
Members of the Spirit Guard organization are called Shadow Sentinels, and their duty is to protect the Alliance from other Dark Spirits.
According to Ziwei's introduction, Zhang Xiaoman also gained a new understanding of the Dark Spirit Star Alliance.
This is a huge alliance that integrates multiple star regions and multiple races. Although it is called the Dark Spirit Star Alliance, most of them are ordinary people without power.
The number of Dark Spirits is not as huge as imagined. Even within the Star Alliance, Dark Spirits are rare among the crowd.
The status of these dark spirits is higher than Zhang Xiaoman initially imagined.
Anyone who joins the Alliance will be classified as a special interstellar citizen and enjoy treatment that ordinary people cannot achieve.
It's okay to say that the first-level spiritual enlighteners have privileges, but because of their limited strength, they will not receive much reuse, and such spiritual enlighteners account for the vast majority of the dark spirit practitioners.
As for control-level experts like Ziwei, they are truly like phoenix feathers and water chestnuts, and each of them is a key training target in the alliance.
Therefore, Ziwei showed enough kindness to Zhang Xiaoman, who was also at the control level.
But wherever there is order, there will be chaos. In order to obtain resources and benefits faster, many Dark Spirits will choose to do some extremely harmful things. These things often seriously threaten the internal stability of the Dark Spirit Star Alliance. .
Therefore, the Guardian Organization was born.
This organization is affiliated to the Protoss Parliament, the highest governing body of the Dark Spirit Star Alliance Alliance. It also only obeys the orders of the Parliament and does not involve other conventional security issues.
Things like the theft of the Eye of Truth, although the loss is huge, can only be classified as within the safety scope of conventional theft, and do not touch the principle of eliminating the huge threat posed by the Dark Spirit.
To put it bluntly, this matter is not enough for their guardian organization to take action.
Zhang Xiaoman was relieved when he heard this. It seemed that Ziwei's identity was higher than he had initially imagined.
"This group of reapers is very powerful. It is one of the most difficult enemies I have encountered since I became a Shadow Sentinel."
"My data terminal was damaged when I was fighting them on Jingcha Star. There is no way to contact the headquarters to request support."
"All my team members also died in that battle. After being seriously injured by them, I escaped by feigning death, hid in their spaceship, and followed them here."
"But I don't have permission to use the communication device of the spacecraft. Later I saw you fighting, so I planned to cooperate with you..."
"Fortunately, you are strong enough and successfully destroyed those reapers..."
"Don't worry, I will report this battle to the organization and ask for credit for you. If you want to join the Guardian Organization, I can also recommend it to you."
"..."
Zhang Xiaoman opened his StarNet terminal and connected the network to the LAN of the Happy Reaper team.
"Captain Ziwei, what do you think I can do to connect to the Dark Spirit Star Alliance network, so that I can notify your companions to pick you up?"
"Just call me Ziwei... Huh? Why haven't I seen your terminal model before? Wait, let me see if your terminal has the corresponding protocol module first..."
Ziwei said as she fiddled with the holographic image projected by Zhang Xiaoman.
But not long after, she stopped again with confusion and frustration.
"Strange, your terminal obviously has a quantum communication module, but why is the corresponding quantum uplink connection not activated? Logically speaking, all equipment will be activated when leaving the factory, otherwise it will not be able to be used..."
After she finished speaking, she saw Zhang Xiaoman's confused expression and couldn't help but patted her forehead and said:
"I said, this thing of yours is not modified or made by yourself, right? It has a quantum message communication module, but the corresponding uplink connection is not activated. This is the first time I have encountered this situation."
"There is no other way. Quantum communication is very special. If you have not matched and activated it with the alliance's main quantum network, it cannot be used. You can only connect to the local area network on the planet."
Zhang Xiaoman frowned and then asked:
"Ziwei, what do you mean, we have no way to leave here now?"
"Not necessarily. I can try to use the communication network that comes with the spacecraft to connect. As long as we are connected, I can ask other people in the Guardian to pick us up..."
As she spoke, she came to a large round table in the room, reached out and fiddled with it a few times, and quickly brought up a holographic operating interface.
The two of them are currently in the command room of the base. There are various operating consoles and instruments stacked here, some of which have been damaged, while others are still intact.
Ziwei used her remaining arm to operate on it, and also borrowed the B2 level authority from Zhang Xiaoman, and then successfully woke up the main intelligent program.
However, after waiting for about twenty minutes, Ziwei regretfully told him that the communication network connection module here had been damaged and there was no way to connect to the main network of the Dark Spirit Star Alliance.
"This... can't connect, so how can we get out of here? Do you have any spells like teleportation? Is it possible that we can only be trapped on this planet?"
Zhang Xiaoman found a chair and sat down, and asked worriedly.
Now that he heard about the existence of the Dark Spirit Star Alliance, he naturally wanted to go there and have a look.
Listening to Ziwei's introduction, he could tell that it was not only a place with extremely advanced technology, but also an area with a huge Dark Spirit civilization.
The alliance's research on dark spirit technology has reached an astonishing level, and he will naturally not miss such a place.
Zhang Xiaoman looks forward to learning more knowledge and techniques from there. When he returns to Aquamarine, these will be valuable assets for the entire human race.
However, judging from the current situation, things seem to have become a bit more difficult.
Ziwei first shook his head and said that there was no way to carry out such a long-distance teleportation, and then put on a happy expression and said:
"Actually, it's not impossible. We can use the spaceship left by this group of reapers to leave!"
As she spoke, she pointed to the podium in front of her and continued:
"Look, they must have a corresponding star map here. At that time, we only need to follow the guidance of the star map and directly use the wormhole generator to make long-distance jumps."
Zhang Xiaoman suddenly became interested.
"Oh? Spaceship? You mean they still have a spaceship parked on this planet? Where exactly is it?"
Ziwei looked at him with some confusion, then pointed to the metal floor under her feet and said:
"The spaceship, this is it."
Zhang Xiaoman was stunned for two seconds before he reacted.
It turns out that these are not base buildings at all, these are the spacecraft driven by the Happy Reaper team to this planet.
"I looked just now. There are a total of five spaceships here, but most of them were damaged in the battle. Now this is the only one that is still intact."
Ziwei looked around seriously.
"If I read it correctly, this spaceship should be a Badger-class frigate of the Ministry of Conformity Navy. It can adapt to combat missions in all-climate environments. It is usually used as a pre-examination team to land."
"I don't know where these reapers got this thing from. It must have undergone a lot of modifications. It's almost unrecognizable to me."
"Fortunately, when I joined the Soul Guardian Organization, I served in the Consolidated Navy. I know how to drive this ship. Driving it back shouldn't be a problem."
She patted the console in front of her and smiled calmly:
"Don't worry, I'm here, no problem!"
Zhang Xiaoman raised his eyebrows and said:
"So, as long as you can repair it, we can drive it back to the Dark Spirit Star Alliance?"
As a result, when he said these words, Ziwei showed a confused look.
"Shall I fix it? But I can't fix it."
Zhang Xiaoman was stunned, his expression slightly frozen.
"You don't know how to repair it? Didn't you say you served in the navy of the Consolidation Department? You can also fly this spaceship..."
Ziwei had a serious expression on her face.
"Yes, I can open it, but I can't practice it."
Zhang Xiaoman was stunned for a moment.
Yes, just because you can practice it doesn’t mean you can cultivate it.
At first, I was misled by this guy's tone of voice.
I thought she had vowed to find a solution, so she could launch the spaceship and take herself to the Dark Spirit Star Alliance to have a look.
But who knew, she would have no way to go back at all.
At this moment, he felt the urge to vomit blood.
Since you don’t know how to cultivate, why did you act so confident just now?
If you can't even repair it, then you're talking nonsense!
Sure enough, this woman is indeed a bit naive.
"That means we can't get through now?"
Zhang Xiaoman said expressionlessly.
Ziwei pinched her chin, thought for a moment and then suddenly said:
"Oh, it seems like this. We don't know how to repair this spaceship, and we can't contact the alliance. This is really troublesome!"
Zhang Xiaoman glanced at her and said he didn't want to talk.
The woman in front of her was obviously very strong, but sometimes she acted like she was not very smart, which was really hard to understand.
"It's not impossible!"
Ziwei suddenly slapped her head, then quickly opened the console in front of her, rummaged through it, and soon a large number of documents fell out.
"what are these?"
Zhang Xiaoman suddenly had a bad feeling.
Ziwei said with a very serious expression:
"I just found the emergency maintenance manual for this ship in the database of the spaceship here. They are all basic operation and maintenance methods for novices. Anyway, its damage is not too serious. We should rely on the guide above for repairs. That’s it!”
She said and pointed to the large list displayed on the holographic projection.
"Look, here is the problem I just asked the main intelligent program to self-check. A maintenance manual has been automatically generated for us. We only need to follow the steps above."
Zhang Xiaoman secretly sighed, "What a good guy," he said to "us". He didn't even know how to fly a spaceship, but now he was directly roped in to work as a maintenance worker.
But now there seems to be no other way. He can only bite the bullet and flip through the list in front of him, and then his heart suddenly thumps.
"Ziwei, there seems to be a lot of these things..."
"Well, it's okay. Let's take our time. This is already the most basic maintenance manual for novices. The purpose of setting it up is to provide every staff member on the ship with sufficient conditions when an unexpected crisis occurs. Go make repairs.”
A drop of sweat appeared on Zhang Xiaoman's forehead.
"I understand this...but that's not what I meant..."
He quickly scrolled down the list in front of him for more than one hundred and twenty pages before reaching the end.
"Such a long list, so much content, but this is not maintenance content, this is a fucking catalog!"
