    After collecting a large amount of mineral raw materials, the Zerg fleet left the planet.  Looking at the planets getting further and further away, Li Ping breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a little helpless. After all, there are still many Chinese elements in his thoughts, and it is inevitable that he has some special preference for being down-to-earth in his heart.  Even if it is a deserted planet, Li Ping, who has a keen sense, can always detect the difference between artificial gravity and planetary gravity.  But over the years, he has become accustomed to wandering in the starry sky, especially in this situation.  Li Ping thought so, but it did not slow down the Zerg fleet at all. Half a week later, they arrived in orbit a few light minutes away from the star.  This distance is the shortest distance that the shipworm can bear. Similarly, deploying the particle collection system to collect energy and particles is also the most efficient!  At such a distance from the star, the surface temperature of the shipworm is above a thousand degrees. Fortunately, we obtained a one-man airship during the battle in the galaxy, and the most critical energy-based armor technology inside has been digested by the Zerg.  absorb.  Now, the shipworm carapace can convert part of the visible light, electromagnetic waves and thermal energy into life energy, and the particle collection system can capture part of the particles and energy in the stellar particle flow, so it can temporarily stay so close to the star.  With the support of a large amount of energy, the synthesis of high-energy fat works very quickly. Within a week, the trailer bug's body is filled with high-energy fat, and a large number of flying insects hatch out to guard and defend outside.  When the Zerg fleet was getting ready, news from Nebula showed that the main force of mercenaries had almost cleared out the area, and they also used new weapons. Fortunately, those space insect nests had long been decomposed into flying insects.  And Fei Mantis, they couldn't get much useful information.  As for the flying insects and flying mantises, after so many battles, they have learned what they need to know. A small number of corpses will not give them any breakthrough progress, not to mention that the Zerg tribe is always evolving.  Although less than 30% of the main mercenary force was consumed, and they were all auxiliary and logistics ships, and even the combat ships were just old ones, Li Ping was already very satisfied. After all, this ambush did not cause any damage at all.  Whatever the Zerg loses, they gain a lot of valuable information, and some ordinary groups can be hatched at any time.  However, there is also bad news. Those mercenaries have discovered the abnormality in the silicon crystal content and will soon send the news back. It is estimated that there will be more aliens coming to hide and seek with them.  But now Li Ping is no longer surprised. The so-called "no surprise" means that the technology is a little more advanced and the appearance is a little weird. The aliens Li Ping has encountered so far can be regarded as biological creatures.  With the detailed route map of the mercenaries, the Zerg turned out of the star system and once again sailed through hyperspace, preparing to turn back to the route.  Unfortunately, Li Ping's Zerg mothership encountered some unexpected troubles while sailing in hyperspace this time. It encountered the legendary hyperspace fault.  Li Ping didn't know much about this kind of thing. He only knew that it would be very dangerous if he encountered this kind of thing during hyperspace flight.  Li Ping was lucky, but he deviated from the planned position when he jumped out.  Li Ping couldn't help but be afraid that if it was forcibly dragged out by gravitational killers such as white dwarfs, neutron stars or even black holes, the immutable dust would also become garbage!  But Li Ping was not happy for long. There was a burst of lightning and gravitational distortion in front of the Zerg fleet. The gravity assistant brain located in the gravity control organ began to alarm frantically. An alien fleet suddenly appeared in front of the Zerg fleet.  The fleet on the opposite side was also stunned when looking at the ferocious Zerg fleet in front of them. The dense sailing formation showed no signs of changing formations, and just relied on the remaining inertia to move towards the Zerg.  The Zerg fleet will not be affected by surprise. The moment the opponent's fleet appears, the Zerg fleet begins to take action.  The flying insects attached to the carapace of the ship bug were the first to react. They jumped hard, then used their jet propulsion bags at full speed, and moved forward to the front of the fleet as the vanguard.  The shipworm itself responded quickly. The huge mouthparts under the bow of the ship quickly opened, revealing the blue-white plasma muzzle and the black energy cannon spike inside.  At this time, the advantages of biological high-energy tissue are reflected.  "If it were an alien, even the most technologically advanced Knullah would not be able to create main gun materials that could remain in a high quantum charging state for a long time. The main gun materials would have to be charged before each attack.  If there is no attack, the energy in the main gun must be channeled back as soon as possible, otherwise the high-energy materials will deteriorate seriously over time, so the main gun has to be warmed up.  As for the Zerg ship bugs, because the main gun itself is alive, it is always in the metabolism of the new city. Even if it is charged for a long time, high-energy materials can continue to be discharged.It is new, not afraid of deterioration at all, and can be kept ready for use at any time.  Under the current situation, as long as the shipworm has a thought, the two main guns can be fired immediately and enter the next round of attack cycle.  However, Li Ping stopped the shipworm at this time because he learned through the gravity brain that the overall mass of these spacecraft was generally low!  After adding their sailing direction, Li Ping had a guess in his mind. If his guess was correct, this would be the best opportunity to obtain information.  The opponent¡¯s fleet is not large in scale, but those huge spaceships with square heads and square heads are very eye-catching.  Looking at those huge spaceships, another bold idea suddenly popped up in Li Ping's heart. Can he make a deal with them?  Of course, if the opponent was a large fleet, he would not have such an idea, but Li Ping came up with this idea after looking at those spaceships that were large but not thickly armored and lacked firepower.  Although radio communication is considered an antique technology for aliens, in order to deal with various situations that may be encountered in the universe, ordinary spacecraft are often equipped with radio communication devices. Anyway, it is just a matter of a chip.  Although this technology is dozens of generations more advanced than what Li Ping has mastered, the basic principle has not changed. Li Ping can still achieve simple communication with the help of the shipworm's bioradar, and after studying the photon computers of those space pirates,  , Li Ping has full confidence in the computing power of these alien spacecraft.  "Louise, do you still remember the 'Isch syndrome' we studied last time?" Li Ping did not contact the other party immediately. Instead, he asked Louise a question first.  "Of course!" Louise also gave the same confident reply as always.  "Very good, now hatch a bellworm with I's disease immediately! And even pretend to be covered in bruises!" "I know." Faced with Li Ping's strange request, Louise agreed without any hesitation.  Soon a defective bellworm appeared in the mothership's insect sac.  "Very good, let's get in touch with the other party immediately and tell him that we want to make a deal!" As soon as Li Ping finished speaking, Louise noticed the master's mental fluctuations, which reminded her of a smirk.  As for the transaction mentioned by the master, Louise also had a rough guess. Louise knew very well how much a living Zerg "specimen" was worth. She didn't think those space thieves could resist such a temptation.  Soon, an electromagnetic wave containing information was sent towards the alien fleet, and the Zerg fleet also began to slow down and fine-tune the fleet route.  It was only then that the alien fleet on the opposite side responded, and the entire fleet began to adjust its course in a hurry.  But Li Ping never received the response he expected.  Li Ping couldn't help but feel a little angry. If his technology was too old and the aliens couldn't receive it, even Suzuomi wouldn't believe it.  With a hot face pressed against a cold butt, one can imagine that Li Ping's mood was not much better. If it had been that time before, he would have gone crazy.  Now after so many years of lonely sailing in the universe, his patience has been well tempered.  "Send two more signals. If there is no response, go straight up and capture them." Li Ping said in an unhappy tone. At the same time, he also made a decision in his heart. If there is no good reason, he will entertain these aliens.  And Li Ping really didn't know that the mercenaries on the opposite side did not pay attention to this message, not because they ignored it, but because they were scared.  Although at first a large number of space thieves and mercenaries came towards the Zerg, some even wanted to capture the entire Zerg alive.  But now most of them have changed their minds. After all, the information communication between them is very smooth. As long as some mercenaries get the news, most of the mercenaries and pirates can get the news. After all, the information is also very valuable.  Some ultra-small mercenary groups or many space thieves rely on inquiring and selling information to maintain their operations.  After experiencing several wars, these aliens finally learned the true strength of the Zerg. Except for those large mercenary groups, no one wanted to capture the entire Zerg.  As a result, many mercenary groups changed their targets and came towards a single Zerg.  Because they are not easy to mess with as a whole, but it is still very easy for them to capture a single insect, as long as they find an opportunity.  Of course, the best thing is a living sample. If not, some tissue samples are also very valuable.  But the problem is that no one can accurately discover the hiding place or route of the Zerg!  Without this information, setting up an ambush is a hollow idea.  Those large mercenary groups are still being fooled by the Zerg, and these mercenaries here just now were still laughing at those large mercenary groups. They came all the way to Galaxy No. 3, did nothing and then chased after the Zerg.  Come back later.  Speaking of happiness, these aliens can¡¯t wait to celebrate it right away.  But extreme joy brings sorrow?Just after jumping out of the hyperspace channel, the spacecraft started to sound alarms.  It is a pity that in order to save energy, they conducted hyperspace navigation entirely in economic mode. Although the energy consumption was less and the structure of the spacecraft was less damaged, it took a while to recover after jumping out of the hyperspace channel. During this period, almost  There is no way to fight back.  And according to the latest detection database, the unknown fleet in front of them turned out to be the Zerg!  Although they wanted to escape now, the spacecraft was not powerful. At this time, they hated the stingy captain.  Especially the ferocious mouth shown on the large visual radar that could swallow several lifeboats made these mercenaries almost escape without a fight.  Fortunately, Li Ping did not let the shipworms make any big moves at this time, and these mercenaries finally did not cause chaos.  In this way, the two fleets gradually approached.  When the Zerg fleet began to turn, although these mercenaries were a little surprised, they finally breathed a sigh of relief, but they could no longer muster the courage to fire back.  And this frightening experience has attracted all their attention, and they did not pay attention to the hints of the antique communication equipment in the corner.  A little alien mercenary noticed this prompt, but he had never systematically studied these complex devices, so he took it for granted and mistook it for a warning.  Soon, after three signals were sent, Li Ping became angry when he saw the alien mercenaries still making no move, but he still had a trace of thoughts about the deal, so he chose to capture them rather than annihilate them.  In an instant, the ship insect that was still swinging slowly suddenly started to maneuver, and a blue-green ion belt tens of thousands of kilometers long was sprayed out from behind its buttocks. The flying insects that were on guard around it also dragged the long ion belt and paddled.  A steep curve surges towards the fleet of alien mercenaries.  And Patch, who had just breathed a sigh of relief and was still praising his younger brother in his heart, immediately began to curse his younger brother, and at the same time started to fight back in a hurry.  However, Patch, who thought the return journey would be safe, had already sold a large amount of energy and ammunition. In addition, the hyperspace voyage had just been completed, and the Zerg attack was sudden. Only a few laser beams could only cause damage to flying insects.  A little minor injury.  " And when Li Ping saw how weak the resistance of this group of mercenaries was, he knew that this was a good opportunity, and he had to make his men more careful. Naturally, they couldn't use energy cannons.  So Fei Chong withstood the mercenary's firepower and charged, but did not fight back.  In the end, only five flying insects were lost before they successfully broke through the meager firepower of this small group of mercenaries and lay down on the outer shell of the spacecraft.  Now, these mercenaries are completely at their wits end!  Facing the dense insects outside, who of the timid mercenaries would dare to go out at this time?  So they cleverly "obeyed" Patch's order and hid in the spacecraft to wait and see.  Li Ping had never encountered such a knowledgeable mercenary before, and the unhappiness in his heart disappeared.  So he decided not to kill these mercenaries this time, but only to steal their wealth!  In the spaceship on the other side, after an arduous ideological struggle, Patch still believed in his brother's words and took a gamble.  If you survive this time, people like you will be prosperous when you go back!  Not to mention those colleagues who come to buy information, your own eyewitness reports alone are worth a lot of money. If it works well, the information you get may be able to connect you with those large mercenary groups or medium and high-level civilizations.  Life can be nourishing now!  Therefore, Patch finally made up his mind, unwilling to let his child trap the wolf. He used his identity to take back all the permissions to prevent his group of mentally retarded aliens from doing anything idiotic.  Just like that, a large-scale mercenary organization waited for the Zerg to capture them without any resistance.  The Zerg are also very strict about "rules". If they don't resist, they will not attack them.  Until the ship bugs came to these spaceships, these mercenaries really gave up the last bit of resistance in their hearts, because the Zerg ship bugs were really scary up close!  However, as the ship bug bit the spacecraft, the alien mercenaries in the spacecraft were inevitably commotion. Some even pressed the buttons in a panic, but no matter how they were operated on the console, the spacecraft still did not respond at all.  Patch doesn¡¯t have the time to care about what the people below think of him. Now he is just looking forward to the Zerg¡¯s voice.  As long as there are negotiations, it means there is hope!  But Patch, who was prone to overthinking, began to think again, what if the Zerg couldn't speak?  The squeaking bugs can't communicate with this group of people without a special translator.  But Li Ping didn't give him any time to continue thinking. Soon, the Keston language rang out in the spaceship: "Listen to the mercenaries inside, surrender your guns and don't kill!" Of course, the Zerg only knew some Keston.  He didn¡¯t understand the words or grammar of the slang at all, so his meaning was translated by the shipworm.?? became awkward Kestonian.  Fortunately, the alien mercenaries on the other side understood that they were going to rob them. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? being being robbed, as long as you can save your life.  After the initial panic, after discovering that the bugs were not as cruel as they thought, these alien mercenaries calmed down and even began to look at the bugs curiously.  I am used to seeing steel battleships with square heads and square brains. When I first saw this shiny black streamlined shipworm with sharp edges, it really had a big visual impact. There were even many types of aliens, and I was fascinated by them at first glance.  This crazy and terrifying Zerg style.  Li Ping, on the other hand, is also observing these alien spacecraft through the visual organs of the shipworm.  Although there were several alien spaceships that were not his favorite style, this steel body did reflect the advanced technology of these aliens. No matter how many times he saw them, Li Ping could not help but sigh.  But after sighing, Li Ping started to have a headache again.  Facing this kind of spaceship that was new to him, he didn't know the structure at all, and he didn't even know where to start!  Fortunately, the mercenaries rescued him at this time. Several wide and fat spaceships opened their huge hatches, revealing the cargo holds inside.  There are not many supplies, but they are better than nothing. The most important thing is that Li Ping wants to test the invasion technology of the ship bug.  Since getting the alien photon computer, Li Ping has not relaxed his research on this kind of computer.  This time it is time to conduct a practical test of some of the research results.  So while the flying insects were transporting supplies, the ship insect Sodis began to invade the flagship of the alien spacecraft.  At this time, Patch, who had just calmed down, was startled by the mechanical adjutant who suddenly jumped out.  The three-dimensional projection of the mechanical adjutant was constantly shaking, as if it was about to collapse, and the voice was no longer as charming as before.  "Red alert! Captain, the core photon computer of this ship is being invaded." "Invasion?" Patch was completely stunned when he heard this word. This desolate galaxy has no star network coverage, how could it be invaded?  Coupled with his broken ship, who would come to invade?  "Could it be that" After the puzzled Patch saw the figure outside the bridge window, a flash of inspiration flashed in his head: If he were a Zerg, what would be his first reaction after coming into contact with a strange environment?  Definitely observe the surrounding environment and determine your own situation.  Only after understanding the unfamiliar environment and assessing various dangers can you proceed to the next step.  Judging from the previous data, the Zerg are not a reckless biological civilization, so the attack on their own fleet must have a clear purpose. Combined with the invasion of the core photon computer, Patch seems to have guessed something;
