"The captain is not playing tricks on me, is he?" Suddenly thinking of this possibility, Carl Danner suddenly felt the urge to vomit blood... I worked hard to drive this simple little broken ship and flew for a whole mile. Zhou, what is it for? ?
He couldn't help but bang his head on the console! But then the red light warning sounded, and the spacecraft was lying down again, making Carl lie down on the console helplessly... After about a minute of frustration, he regained his energy and opened the multi-purpose tool to repair this for the nth time. A broken ship.
"No, although the captain is very bad, he will definitely not be this bad!" Karl encouraged himself. I should firmly believe that Captain Lu Yuan will definitely not lose his last bit of integrity...
Based on the Quarians' habit of saving money and picking up rags, Karl had already guessed that Lu Yuan would probably give him a spaceship, so in order to maximize cost savings, he only spent a small amount of money and bought one. A scrapped spaceship is coming this way...
In his mind, this broken ship should be able to sustain it for seven days, without even considering the return journey! But now...he looked helplessly at the huge twin blue stars in front of him. Except for this pair of brothers who love each other and kill each other, and the stardust that is pulled and swallowed by them, there seems to be nothing in the empty galaxy.
The place where the cargo ship "Agility" was originally wrecked is a little further forward, and that place is now covered by the diffuse stardust. But Carl hesitated, not knowing whether to move forward - because in front of the spacecraft, an invisible thin line extended - the terrifying William Herschel limit!
This broken ship that Carl piloted. But the condition of the "Agile" was even worse than when it was filled with cargo and people! Therefore, its William Herschel limit is much further outward than before.
The location designated by Lu Yuan is now completely obscured by stardust, and nothing can be detected through instruments! If Karl wants to know what Lu Yuan’s gift is. Or did Lu Yuan lie to him? The only way is to drive into the William Herschel limit... and confirm it yourself. But this is a typical case of putting oneself to death to survive!
At this point, Karl couldn't help but wonder - what if there was nothing there? What if the gift isn’t a spaceship? just in case……
However, a few minutes later, Carl Danner resolutely turned the ship around. "Without the captain, I would have died at that time!" The broken spaceship sailed directly past the limit! "Captain! If you dare to lie to me! I will never introduce Tully Zola to you!"
The spacecraft was pulled forward involuntarily by a gravitational force, and rushed into the interior of the stardust.
After breaking through the misty gray dust, a splendid world suddenly appeared in front of Carl Danner!
Unlike the dusty appearance of the nebula's surface, its interior is different. It’s so gorgeous and colorful! Looking around from inside, these colorful dusts look like layers of fluttering silk. The pieces are entangled, but there are quite wide gaps between them. They are distinct and do not mix together like air masses.
From an astronomical point of view, those gaps can be directly regarded as the same indivisible nebula. But what Karl saw were dust lanes like auroras. Cut the world into colorful grids! Karl couldn't help but open his mouth and looked at the outside world in fascination. He had never seen such a beautiful sight!
When the broken ship passed through a thick dust belt again under the influence of gravity. The ship took him to a wider world. This place is like the center of the Northern Lights, surrounded by dust and sand with blurred colors, but there is a strong blue light. Shining down from the direction of the zenith! At the very center of the blue grating——
Parked there, a beautiful heavy cruiser!
She stopped in a grid of stardust, and started the auxiliary engine slightly to ensure that she would not be sucked away by the blue giant star. The beautiful silk around them is like the ribbons on a gift box...
Carl felt like he couldn't breathe! This fusiform spaceship is so fascinating!
The heavy cruiser manufactured by the Dawn Mothership is different in appearance from the current mainstream spacecraft in the galaxy. Perhaps it's because a large number of girls are in charge on the mothership, and every battleship is extremely beautiful. Because they are experimental ships, even if the overall structure of the two heavy cruisers is the same, the details and emphasis are biased.
The heavy cruiser given to Cerberus has a rectangular hull and focuses on attack. 20kg projectiles, an exit speed of 1.7% of the speed of light, a firing speed of once per second, and the main gun firepower exceeds that of mainstream Dreadnought-class battleships! Let Cerberus suddenly have the power to dominate a certain airspace.
As for the heavy cruiser in front of Carl Danner, its hull was in the shape of a multi-section fusiform, focusing on defense. The main gun parameters are 20kg projectiles, 1.1% of the speed of light exit velocity, one firing rate of 1.5 seconds, and the firepower is slightly inferior to the mainstream Dreadnought-class battleships. The characteristic of this ship is that outside the hull, there is an outer armor plate covering 60% of the area, which greatly enhances the ship's ability to withstand attacks - for Karl, who is determined to protect his compatriots, this may be a good idea Better choice.
When Karl piloted the small spacecraft and slowly approached this incredibly beautiful battleship, the battleship automatically established a communication connection with him.
[The identity of the visitor has been confirmed: Carl Danner, who meets the requirements. 】
[Please tell me the boarding password...]
"Oh..." Karl Khan, you still need the password to board the ship? The captain didn't tell me! (Who asked you to chatter! "Um, my journey is to the stars and the sea?"
[Wrong, you still have two chances! 】
Even though he was covered by a mask, Karl's face turned pale instantly! He can't wait to slap himself twice so hard that you'll be speechless! It would be okay if he had never seen this ship... When he saw it, he immediately felt that this ship had replaced his life! If he missed it, he would rather jump directly to the blue superstar!
"The king of heaven covers the tigers of the earth, and the pagoda suppresses the river monsters!" He finally remembered - the captain seemed to have said that this was a universal password!
[Wrong, you have one more chance! 】
Carl was stunned. First his hands, then his whole body began to tremble... Damn it. damn it! Now is not the time for joking! Captain, please save me... But it is impossible for Lu Yuan to appear in this situation. It can only be solved by him alone.
Karl stared blankly at the spacecraft, racking his brains to recall every detail of this period! It took a long time, until a word appeared in his mind, before Karl raised his head again. He said with some uncertainty, "Lu Yuan Logistics, the mission must be achieved?"
【correct answer! Captain Carl Danner, welcome aboard! 】
"Can I...swear?" Carl Danner knelt on the deck and looked at the open battleship door in front of him speechlessly - "Lu Yuan, your sister!"
*****
"Hi, honey. There are only two of us left... Ugh!" Lu Yuan walked into the cab carrying wine and raised his hands in embarrassment. Because Miranda was sitting in his driver's seat, holding a "Predator" pistol in his hand, pointed straight at him. "I wonder... is there any misunderstanding here?"
"No misunderstanding!" Miranda said coldly, "I paid to hire you to perform tasks, that's all. Put away your glib tone and sexual harassment. I am not interested in you, and our employment does not include these! Listen! do you understand?!"
"It's completely clear!" Lu Yuan raised the wine bottle and glass in his hand as if giving up, and put them on the cabinet next to him. Miranda snorted and prepared to put the gun back. She had no intention of killing the captain. It's just that he still needs to put in a lot of effort later, and I don't want him to get too far.
Unexpectedly, what Lu Yuan said next was, "I will follow your instructions. Dear lb... Oh no, I should say Ms. Miranda."
Miranda suddenly became nervous as Lu Yuan revealed her identity! Before Lu Yuan could move, she rolled over very quickly and held Lu Yuan from behind. Then he put the pistol on his helmet again! "Who are you?! How do you know me?!"
"Relax," Lu Yuan spread his hands widely, "As a beautiful woman, isn't it normal for someone to know you?" Lu Yuan tapped his knuckles on the edge of the helmet, and with the slight sound of air flow, he He took off his helmet...
"sonbitch!!! (son of a bitch, son of Bichi, hell, it's just a curse word)" Looking at Lu Yuan's somewhat familiar face, Miranda blurted out the incredible curse words. The captain of this broken ship was actually Mu Xing My brother?! Miranda suddenly felt like she was struck by thunder in the head!
As a devoted sister-controller for twenty years, my brother and everything are evil! So Miranda didn't care, and she didn't care about creatures like her younger brother, which of course included Mu Xing's younger brother... So ever since she found out that Mu Xing's useless brother actually dropped out of military school to work as a courier, she never cared about him anymore. his follow-up situation.
So she never imagined that a merchant captain who had made a great name in the smuggling business, who was described as a cunning and suspicious guy like an old fox, was actually Mu Xing's younger brother who was less than 20 years old? !
"So... you have recognized me a long time ago? And then you have been playing tricks on me?!" Miranda pushed Lu Yuan angrily, and then put away the gun. Since he is Mu Xing's younger brother, everything is easy to explain. "Did Mu Xing show you my photo?"
"Oh, of course." Lu Yuan looked carefree and casually sat on the bridge without any formality, which fit Miranda's definition of him - ineffective. He continued, "To prove to me that she can make friends, Mu Xing showed me your photo."
Lu Yuan's words made Miranda laugh. She could imagine the serious look on Mu Xing's face when he said this - he really liked staying in the laboratory, but he didn't want to be treated as a lonely "Frankenstein".
Hearing her laugh, Lu Yuan looked at her with a strange expression, and then said, "Are you still in the mood to laugh at her? Mu Xing said, you showed her photo to your sister - to prove that you can also make friends. To normal friends." Lu Yuan emphasized the word "normal".
Miranda's smile suddenly froze. She recalled her sister's heartbreaking complaint one time - why do all the people you know have gloomy-faced uncles, ugly-faced uncles, uncles...

ps: Those who have played the game "Star Wolf 3" should be able to guess the origin of this scene of obtaining the ship. I can't describe the feeling I felt when I walked through the stardust for the first time and found the chrysanthemum main ship! Later, after I modified the script and changed the chrysanthemum boat into mk2, I was even more moved!
ps2: Thanks to book friends* for gifting many chapters, some of which have not yet been collected, everyone is welcome to collect them.
ps3: Because more and more people are giving rewards, the content of thanks takes up too much space, and book friends complain that it affects the sense of reading. After several objections/complaints, Lao Lei could only give up the practice of listing everyone’s rewards at the beginning of the chapter and thanking them one by one. Lao Lei bowed and apologized.
