"What do you want to do? Also, why do you think I can help you?"
Li Yi looked at the silent imperial officer and asked.
Although the other party told him a lot, he always felt that something was wrong.
If it's just these things, it doesn't seem to be enough for a normally honest and taciturn person to make such a decision, right?
You must know that if he does something like this, once it is discovered, it will be equivalent to betraying the empire!
If it were Li Yi, he probably wouldn't do such a thing.
At most, it would be good to send him to the empire.
Let alone doing these things with him.
"Do you think it's incomprehensible that I do such a thing? So you don't believe it?"
Lin Zhiyang looked at Li Yi and found that the other party was avoiding his eyes, and couldn't help but smile.
This was the first time the young officer smiled.
But for some reason, Li Yi always felt that his smile was uglier than his cry, as if he hadn't smiled in a long time.
At this time, he also saw something in the other person's eyes.
That is not the emotion that a normal young person would have in his eyes.
A look that is deep and filled with hatred!
Why does an ordinary Imperial Legion have such a look in their eyes?
personal enmity?
This is the only explanation Li Yi can think of.
Could it be the son of the baron he mentioned?
Li Yi suddenly raised his head and met the other party's complicated eyes.
"Do you think I agreed to take you into the empire to avenge myself?"
"Is not it?"
Li Yi, who was already somewhat certain, asked back.
To be honest, he still understands young people very well.
To be honest, young people between the ages of 20 and 30 are in the initial stage of life, which is also the period when their confidence is most expanded. They believe that no matter what they face, they will be able to solve it easily, and there will be no so-called unsolvable problems. difficult problem.
Even at this time they are still very immature and green, even though they may have no money or power.
But they will always believe that with their efforts and abilities, they can get most everything in this world.
Wealth, power, love, etc., they are confident enough to obtain everything they think they can obtain.
Of course, most people actually do get one or two of them.
As for having all three, that is almost impossible to find.
Because whether it is in this universe or the universe where Li Yiyuan lives, there is always an eternal truth.
That is the principle of equivalent exchange.
If you want to get the majority, that means you have to give up the majority you own.
How much you can get depends on how much you have before you get it.
And hard work is only a time relationship, not an absolute factor.
Many people don't understand this truth, so they have worked hard all their lives, but their efforts have come to nothing, just like a mirror in a mirror.
Some people think that their efforts are actually in the wrong direction. As long as they find the right direction, they can achieve success.
This statement has some truth, but it is not necessarily accurate.
Any choice you make has already been destined to the final result. This cannot be achieved by working hard and choosing the right direction.
However, Li Yi naturally wouldn't say much to this imperial officer whom he had just met once.
He just nodded slightly.
"You're right. I'm really worried. No matter how you look at it, you have no reason to help me. My request is just for you to take me to the imperial capital, but you make your own decisions."
Speaking of this, Li Yi was actually a little unhappy.
He didn't like the idea of making decisions without consulting him.
Especially when the other person is still young.
"What? What I see in your eyes is contempt. Can I think that you are contemptuous of the officers of the empire?"
Lin Zhiyang keenly read some information from Li Yi's eyes.
He didn't choose not to say it, but expressed it without any scruples.
This is actually a very dangerous thing.
Although due to surveillance, the two people's activity space was limited to this small room, this did not mean that Li Yi had no way to get out of this situation.
In other words, this young officer of the empire never really understood what kind of force the strange man in front of him possessed.
"Forget it, it's not important, tell me about the empire you know."
Li Yi thought for a while and simply ignored it.
From his observation, the strongest person on the ship was the young man in front of him.
And those crew members are just ordinary people.
As for the person in front of him, at best, he is only at the level he was when he became a warrior.
In other words, some are not worth mentioning.
If an outstanding officer of the Hongling Empire could only achieve this level, it would seem that it was not a civilization famous for its personal force.
So the level of technology is very advanced?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at the spaceship where he was.
To be honest, he didn't see it...
"I know what Ni wants to ask, and I'll tell you right now. Also, you don't have to stare at this spaceship. I just said it, this is just the lowest level transport spacecraft, and it's The kind without weapons. If you want to understand the Empire’s technology, then it’s best to find a way to get on an S-class Star Destroyer and take a good look.”
Li Yi glanced at Lin Zhiyang in surprise.
"Is there really such a thing as a Star Destroyer?"
"Then what do you think?"
"Is it the kind that can kill an entire planet with one shot?"
"Ah, yes!"
"......oh."
Hearing this, Li Yi became a little silent.
From this point of view, the Hongling Empire is indeed the type of civilization that uses technology as its greatest weapon.
This made him feel relieved.
The development direction of a civilization is destined to only have two extremes. Either the level of science and technology has developed to the extreme, and people themselves are weak.
The other is due to certain factors that have brought civilization to another extreme, that is, the individual's martial power has reached its peak, that is, it has gathered huge power into itself, such as cultivating immortals, superpower civilization, and so on.
It's hard to say which of the two is better, but it's all closely related to the impact of the development of civilization.
The kind of civilization that combines great power in one person is mostly a star domain that is extremely rich in resources in all aspects.
Not only is this kind of civilization extremely powerful individually, but it is not too bad even if it is a technological civilization that is not paid much attention to. Therefore, generally this type of civilization is likely to stand directly on the first-level civilization at the beginning, and it will be smoother in the future. Completely realize the upgrading of civilization.
Unlike some civilizations in barren star regions, not only are they lacking in resources, they are not even considered a civilization in the initial stage. They must first gain enlightenment before they can barely be considered a civilization.
If such a civilization is coupled with the bad nature of human beings, it is destined to not truly develop for a long time.
Once such a civilization is invaded, it will undoubtedly face catastrophe, and there will be no way to fight back.
The various human civilizations in the universe will not be open to you just because they are all human beings.
resource!
Only resources are the driving force for human progress.
A weak civilization like the one mentioned above may have limited resources, but mosquitoes are still meat no matter how small they are, and they won't mind swallowing them in one bite.
And if it is based on technological civilization, it is destined that the level of the Hongling Empire mentioned by the other party will not be too high.
Because no one is too powerful!
While Li Yi was thinking, Lin Zhiyang spoke again.
"My original idea was to take you back to participate in a martial arts competition. I just saw that your strength seems to be good, so that you can have a chance to enter the imperial capital, if you can enter the finals."
"Huh? A tourney?"
Li Yi thought he heard wrongly and couldn't help but asked doubtfully.
"Yes, the martial arts competition. Although our technology in Hongling is very advanced, there are still many people who are keen on personal martial arts, and there are even rich people who sponsor them for a long time. Therefore, the martial arts competition is very popular. As long as you can enter the finals, then go The Imperial Capital is a sure thing!”
Hearing this, Li Yi was silent for a long time, and finally looked at Lin Zhiyang and asked in a suspicious tone.
"Are you sure the empire is just technologically advanced?"
