After receiving the call from Lin Shu, Xiaoxing arrived not long after. When they saw the huge ant nest that fell apart, everyone was stunned. If we talk about the overwhelming star ant fight before and the cleaning up of the huge number of ants, The star ant corpse is a big scene, so I really don¡¯t know how to describe what is in front of me. Everyone¡¯s heart trembles when they imagine the scene where star ants lived here before.
But fortunately, there is no longer a living star ant here. No, there is still one, and that is the huge female ant locked in the barrier by Lin Shu. Everyone's eyes are attracted to this huge female ant. Attracted, many people ignored the strange fur ball floating next to Lin Shu.
"Husband, is this the queen ant?"
Nasha looked at this big white meat mountain and opened her mouth in surprise. This thing is really indescribable, but it always makes me feel sick when I look at it. It turns out that bugs are also very disgusting when they grow too big. .
"Queen Ant, you guessed it, all the star ants were produced by this guy."
"Oh, you look very honest, don't you think you are very smart?"
"Smart? Very smart, but also very simple."
"Simple?" Auriel asked with some dissatisfaction: "Simple enough to kill any life they see without any scruples?"
"Yes, it is simple, don't you think so?"
Lin Shu asked with a smile. Auriel thought about it and finally had to admit that Lin Shu was right. You can't extend human morality to the ant queen. Her moral values ??belong to the star ant tribe. Morality is very simple. That is survival and continuity.
Auriel opened her mouth, but did not continue to say anything. Instead, he looked at the ugly big bug in front of him fiercely, his eyes flickering, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Lin Shu smiled, turned around and told Ellie: "Ellie, we must get these things into real space, otherwise problems will arise sooner or later if these metal blocks are allowed to drift in the dragon's veins."
"I know, these divided pieces should be able to be put into Xiaoxing's spare warehouse. As for the big ones"
"Those will continue to be divided. Niraya and I will set up a self-generating formation to destroy the largest half."
"Destroy it, what a waste!" Nasha suddenly interjected. Since marrying Lin Shu, Nasha, who does not like the fireworks of the world, has also had to live a life of daily necessities. Under Lin Bao's subtle influence, she is also very good at budgeting. : "Let's do this. Try to move to real space first, and then slowly decide how to deal with it. At least the personnel on the spaceship can get a share, just treat it as a welfare."
Lin Shu smiled and nodded: "It's up to you, but this is also a big project!"
"It's okay, we're not in a hurry." Nasha waved her hands grandly and said.
soon. Ellie mobilized those stronger disciples and expedition team members, wearing protective magic weapons made by Lin Shu and others, and used small spaceships to drag the smaller metal blocks to the vicinity of the small star, and then either continued to divide them, or Directly loaded into Xiaoxing's spare warehouse. After all the space of the small star is filled, return to the real space. Unload the metal blocks together.
Repeating these tasks back and forth, while waiting for the arrival of the Hope, and Xiaoying and other star beasts to come to join them.
Time passed in a hurry, and the Hope finally sailed to its destination. In front of them was a huge pile of metal. According to Nasha, they could use it at will to replenish the inventory of the Hope and build new ones if they wanted to. The space city is also available.
However, William is not interested in building a space city at all now. He just wants to get off the space city and find a planet with an elegant environment to spend the rest of his life.
Lin Shu had never met William before. This time, he happened to send the female insect to the Hope and pay a visit to Captain William. However, this meeting gift was a bit too heavy, not only in terms of weight.
William looked at the mountain of meat in front of him and felt a little conflicted, but when he saw the hateful eyes of the people around him, he knew what to choose.
The two exchanged warm greetings. Accompanied by William, Lin Shu took Nasha, Auriel and others to visit the Hope. Lin Shu was also full of praise for the Hope. It is undoubtedly the greatest ship of mankind. One of the works.
Afterwards, everyone held detailed consultations on joining the spiral arm civilization system, and basically determined all the details. Xuanmen supported the Hope in principle to obtain an independent planet. Of course, it was only in principle. If not, the Hope would Will exist as an independent race with corresponding rights of self-determination.
After successfully completing these matters, Lin Shu asked to have a private conversation with William alone, and Lin Shu also specially invitedAuriel participated.
After everyone else left, there were only four people and a strange creature left in the room.
William didn¡¯t know what this strange creature was. He thought it was Lin Shu¡¯s magic pet. When he saw this strange young man, he was curious about Lin Shu¡¯s taste.
Oriel knew that Lin Shu didn't have this person around him before, but it appeared after killing the star ants. Obviously, this guy might have something to do with the star ant tribe, but Lin Shu didn't tell him, and it was hard for Oriel to ask, but Looking at today's posture, Auriel had a hunch that what Lin Shu wanted to say was about this strange monster.
After making sure that it was definitely not bugged or recorded, Lin Shu added another barrier and then said with an apologetic smile: "Captain William, I'm sorry, this matter is of great importance, so you must be careful."
William nodded solemnly: "I understand, please tell me."
Lin Shu glanced at Auriel who looked serious, and said slowly: "Can I ask what you plan to do with the female insect I sent today?"
William was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Auriel before saying solemnly: "If it is based on my own wishes, I would prefer to keep her, because the mother worm has great advantages in genetic technology, material technology and even aerospace technology. With a technical level that far exceeds ours, we should study how to bring out her value instead of simply killing her, so as to make up for the sins she has committed. Oh, no, that is not even a sin. It¡¯s just a life-and-death struggle between races.¡±
Auriel frowned: "Captain William, please forgive me for not agreeing. Although your idea is very practical, I think it is difficult for everyone to accept this decision emotionally."
William sighed: "Yes, so, Iwill choose to respect everyone's opinions. If the majority of people demand the execution of the female insect, I will also execute it, but before that, I think I will try to convince them as much as possible, After all, the dead can no longer come back to life, so we should think more about the living. The more we know about the mother worms, the more confident we will be in dealing with them when we encounter the star ant tribe again in the future, right?"
Auriel nodded: "Yes, but it is difficult to accept it emotionally."
Lin Shu and Nasha looked at each other, smiled and said: "It doesn't matter whether that female worm is dead or alive. What I want to talk about today is the one next to me. She is the real queen ant, Maoqiu, and Say hello everyone.¡±
¡°Hello Captain William, hello Miss Auriel, I¡¯m Maoqiu.¡±
William was shocked, and Auriel had such an expression on her face. After a while, William recovered from the extreme shock, and pointed at the fur ball with some stuttering and asked: "Thisis this the queen ant? Then , that female insect"
"The mother worm is just a production machine controlled by the queen ant. All the wisdom of the star ant clan is concentrated on this guy The body of the hair ball is almost all brains. The queen ant is actually the tallest person in the star ant clan in the form of a brain. The one with power.¡±
William nodded slowly and suddenly, while Oriel looked at Maoqiu with a complicated expression, then looked at Lin Shu, and said with some hesitation: "Master Lin, please forgive me, you meanlet me Shall we keep it a secret for you?"
"Haha, if you want to keep it a secret, wouldn't it be better if I didn't tell you at all? However, our Xuanmen does not do this kind of thing of deceiving friends. I tell you because I want you to choose whether to keep Maoqiu alive or not."
"Um" Oriel also hesitated. It wasn't that she didn't understand what William said, but it was difficult for her to accept it emotionally. However, Lin Shu's meaning was obvious. Let the female insect bear the emotional debt. As for Maoqiu, she should survive. She not only has the value of living, but also has a reason to live.
A hint of joy flashed across William's face. He thought about it and suddenly said with a smile: "How does Master Lin plan to convince me?"
"Oh? Haha Captain William is a happy person, so I won't beat around the bush. If you agree to let Maoqiu live, as compensation, Xuanmen guarantees that you will get an independent planet. In addition, inside Maoqiu's head The knowledge belongs to you too."
"I agree!" William agreed without even thinking about it. Auriel was shocked. At any rate, you should hesitate and bargain for a price! Why did you agree so directly?
Lin Shu nodded appreciatively and said, "I think your choice is wise, but what about Miss Auriel? You represent other survivors."
"This" Auriel looked at the harmless appearance of the fur ball floating in the air, but she still couldn't bear it. Moreover, she also knew the value of the fur ball very well. The powerful genetic technology, Biometals, silicon-based carbon-based combination technologies, etc., this value is really
Lin Shu narrowed his eyes: "Your conditions are the same, but the one about the planetForget it, Xinyuan Planet already has its own planet, and Xuanmen has promised to protect their right to choose. "
Aurier rolled her eyes at Lin Shu: "Master Lin, you are trying to seduce me."
Nasha burst out laughing, and Oriel's cheeks turned red. Her words were somewhat ambiguous, but it would be even worse to explain them after she had spoken them. Oriel had to bite her lip to keep silent.
"Haha This is how business is done. The price you pay that makes you excited is more likely to make a deal, right?"
"But, do you think I can represent the people of Xinyuanxing?"
"I don't know, I think it's okay, othersI can't ask."
Aurier thought for a while, gritted her teeth, raised her head and looked at Lin Shu: "Okay, I agree, she is a furball, right? From now on she will be a furball."
