Chapter 127 Respond to Me, Enemy
What can an agricultural star have?
Hundreds of beautiful towns with only tens of thousands of permanent residents at most, fully mechanized farmland stretching as far as the eye can see, the "sightseeing bubble boat" that occasionally slowly passes through the sky, and the huge billboard next to the wheat field.
The billboard had a huge slogan:
Ram Star, the Star of De-stress.
A police hovercraft painted in black and white was parked under the billboard.
There was explosive music playing in the car. The middle-aged police officer in the driver's seat twisted his broad waist to the rhythm. The young policeman in the passenger seat had a look of despair on his face. He had entered the retirement stage of his life decades earlier.
This is the scene that Yang Ming sees at this moment.
Yang Ming was sitting in a sightseeing bubble boat, floating five or six meters above the ground, enjoying the scenery from all angles.
He set his sights on the police car.
The fat uncle from the Guell Union next to Yang Ming tried several times to start a small talk with Yang Ming, but Yang Ming kept filming with an "entry-level" stereo camera and refused to start a conversation.
A bubble boat can seat six people.
There was only one young man, Yang Ming, here, which looked a bit out of place.
A few lines of faint words flashed across Yang Ming's glasses. It was a message from Lu.
[Boss, that police hovercraft can be used as a network interface.]
[Generally speaking, the level of protection of such small local police networks, which usually do not have much funding , is not very high.]
[A very good breakthrough. ]
Yang Ming nodded imperceptibly to show that he understood.
The question now was how he could jump out of this fully enclosed viewing 'bubble' without arousing the other party's suspicion.
Yang Ming thought about it for a moment.
He could only stay on Ram Star for three days, and then he would rush to the nearby Aurelio Star according to his own itinerary and travel there for half a month.
The first goal is still to get the formula for the enhanced injection.
Yang Ming already has some ideas about this. Aurelio's biological research institute, which is half military and half medical, may have a production line for this kind of enhanced injection.
This trip to the New Federation seems to be full of a series of coincidences, but there is only one real coincidence.
——When Yang Ming wanted to retreat and give up entering Ram Star, he encountered the other side's merchant ship transporting the Valkyrie's remains.
The necrotic cell mass that the New Federation CIA had painstakingly obtained was transported to Planet Ram;
Yang Ming used the Feinan to make a series of jumps and sneaked into the New Federation. In order to successfully enter the Aurelio Planet, he wanted to find a breakthrough on the seemingly normal Ram Planet.
The two just collided.
The timing is too clever.
Before taking formal action, Yang Ming discussed this issue in detail with Lu.
"Law... It's as if there is a force that guides me and allows me to explore the secrets of Planet Ram."
"But boss, no matter how you look at it, this is only a low-probability event."
The law's view remains fully rational:
'And the timing of the theft of the Valkyrie's remains coincided with our arrival here.
"We were attracted by the planet Aurelio. Ram is a subsidiary and extension of Aurelio. You have a connection with the necrotic cells of the Valkyrie, which is why you feel it is a coincidence."
"No, Lu, the timing is just too coincidental. Don't forget that high-dimensional civilizations are almost omnipotent to us. They can interfere with us when we are unaware."
'So, Boss, what is their motive for interfering with us? Science is against fatalism.'
Lu asked back seriously.
Yang Ming was unable to answer for a moment.
He couldn't say that his appearance in the world depicted in "The Abyss" and his seizure of the body of the imperial officer Hanton was a huge mystery.
And this highly accidental event may also be part of the mystery.
"No matter what, let's try to find the secret here."
Yang Ming used this sentence to end the discussion.
The action plan given by Lu was to first go to Aurelio Star for half a month to complete the first priority, and then go to Ram Star for three days.
But when Yang Ming determined the route of the activity, he swapped the order of the two.
He wanted to explore the planet Ram first.
He will try it for three days, and he will leave whether he gains anything or not.
The sightseeing bubble boat is about to float over the billboard.
Yang Ming seemed to be casually lowering his hand, and the newly updated watch lightly touched the bulkhead of the bubble boat.
The law immediately releases the interference.
The bubble boat began to slowly slow down and lower its altitude, crashing into the top of the billboard.
"Ouch! Is our ship slowing down a bit?"
The old lady in the front seat was keenly aware of the altitude change and shouted:
"Look! We're about to hit it! That billboard in front!"
The five other passengers on board reacted immediately.
The fat uncle next to Yang Ming asked quickly: "Are we overweight? Are we overweight?"
"We're going to have a car accident."
"Relax, ladies," an old gentleman laughed, "This may be a little show they designed to give us boring souls a unique tourist welcome ceremony, just like a scare show in an amusement park... Damn! We are really going to run into it!"
"Help!"
"Police down there, help us! You are totally blind!"
"Oh, great God of wisdom and science, please forgive me for not donating to the church in the past three weeks."
The bubble boat slowly moved towards the billboard.
The old men and women left their seats and began to bang on the bulkhead.
The two policemen in the police car were still moving their body parts and staring blankly in boredom.
The impact is about to happen.
Yang Ming said, "We should return to our seats and fasten our seat belts first."
Several old men and women turned their heads and glared at Yang Ming, then continued to bang on the windows.
Bang.
A very slight knocking sound.
The two female passengers let out ear-piercing screams.
The bubble boat trembled slightly, and then began to slowly slide down along the billboard.
Yang Ming crossed his legs, fiddled with the candy-bar-shaped network access terminal, and took a picture of the scene as a strange souvenir.
More than ten seconds later, the two policemen looked at the observation boat that had smashed in front of the hovercraft in bewilderment, kicked open the door in a panic, and rushed up with laser pistols in hand.
The next thing is much simpler.
Yang Ming took advantage of the chaos to stick a fingernail-sized piece of transparent film on the outer casing of the communication component of the floating police car, and his plan was complete.
The rescue vehicle of the sightseeing company arrived at the scene quickly. A slightly bald uncle began to bow and apologize repeatedly, and gave six passengers a bunch of free ride tickets in an attempt to cover up this trivial matter.
Two hours later.
Yang Ming returned to the tourist hotel where he was staying.
He walked around the hotel lobby, took a few nice pictures with the stereoscopic camera, and then returned to his room.
Take a shower, and start communicating with Lu.
"how's it going?"
"Boss, the police network here is really old and poorly maintained, so it's very easy to hack into it."
The law said quickly:
"I used the ports of the police network and the civilian network to enter the surface network of Ram Star and am analyzing some information that may contain intelligence.
"The locals don't seem to know that there is a secret research institute here, but I found a black wall in the corner of the surface network."
"Black wall?" Yang Ming was confused.
"Behind the black wall, there is an internal network that is concealed by multiple means," Lu explained. "The most direct means is physical isolation, with no line connection."
Yang Ming asked: "Didn't the local residents notice anything unusual?"
"Boss, Ram Planet is an agricultural planet. Most of the residents here are elderly people who come here to retire. They live in scattered areas, and the total population is only a few million. They are not very curious."
"Continue investigating."
Yang Ming stretched out his arms and said:
"Whether we gain anything or not, we will only stay here for three days."
"Okay, boss. You can move freely now. If you can't find anything in the online world, it will be difficult for you to gain anything on the tourist route," Lu said with a smile, "The scenery here is really nice."
Yang Ming smiled and shook his head.
There is no nightclub here, so what fun is there ?
…
For two days, Lu didn't get any useful information.
If they had not confirmed the existence of the planet's internal network through the 'black wall', they would have thought that this was just an ordinary agricultural planet subordinate to Aurelio.
A gravity detection radar that wraps around the entire planet;
An extremely secret internal network on the planet that is physically isolated from the external network;
The officer who would have his memory wiped after working for that secret institute for two years;
The unjust act that Professor Pat mentioned...
These few points alone are enough to prove the extraordinaryness of Ram Star.
The merchant ship bound for Aurelio will depart in thirteen galactic hours, leaving Yang Ming less than half a day to explore.
Lu was unable to find the entrance to Ram Star's intranet.
Similarly, Lu did not find any information about "Professor Pat" on the network in the current area, and even on the interstellar network with the largest amount of information in the New Federation, he could not find any useful information.
This is a rare situation where the law is helpless.
In comparison, the information of many core members of the so-called top biochemical laboratories on Aurelio Star has been easily obtained by Lu.
"As expected, it is the secret base of the New Federation ."
Yang Ming admired sincerely.
He did not feel frustrated, but instead became more motivated.
Shower, communication.
"Lv, still no results?"
"Yes, boss," Lu sighed, "the most valuable information now is the coordinates sent back by the original spy robot, which is the warehouse where they handed over the necrotic cell group."
Yang Ming asked, "Where should I go for a walk?"
"That's too risky, Boss," Lu warned, "It's not wise to approach the other party directly when everything is unknown."
Yang Ming glanced at the time and said, "It's impossible to do something like this without taking any risks."
Lu insisted, "But the risk should be linked to the benefits. There is no direct benefit for us to explore the secrets here, but just to satisfy your curiosity."
"Isn't it also a benefit to protect our industry in Luofeng? They want to use the things here to deal with Luofeng."
"That's right. Our Dark Star might be affected. I'll help you arrange it... How about a hot spring lottery ticket? No one can resist the joy of getting something for free. This is a good reason to change the itinerary at the last minute."
Yang Ming raised his eyebrows slightly.
He likes hot springs, the kind where you can bathe together.
Yang Ming had just finished his shower when the winning ticket was sent to his network terminal. All procedures were legal and compliant.
He quickly set off, put on his backpack, picked up his camera, and went to fulfill his hot spring trip.
While waiting for a taxi, Yang Ming showed off his winning ticket at the hotel front desk, making the old ladies envious.
As they got closer and closer to the target town, Yang Ming started to feel irritated for no reason.
Their previous plan was to avoid this place and conduct the investigation through the Internet to avoid being targeted.
Generally speaking, Professor Pat and the director appeared in the warehouse of the target town. This town is likely to have the entrance and exit of the secret base, and it may even be near the warehouse.
But what can we do even if we know this information?
For a secret base of this level, the security level is definitely not low.
Individual breakthrough?
Yang Ming didn't even think about such a ridiculous thing.
Just as Lu said, Yang Ming’s biggest driving force is actually his curiosity.
"You have good taste, sir."
The driver of the hover taxi said with a smile:
"The town you are going to has the most famous hot spring hotel here. The underground heat energy penetrates the thick rock crust. Isn't this a miracle?"
Yang Ming smiled and nodded, then yawned tiredly: "Traveling is really tiring."
"Of course, going out to play definitely takes some energy. It's a bit surprising that a handsome guy like you doesn't have a female companion."
On the talkativeness of taxi drivers in the entire galaxy.
Yang Ming smiled and said, "Are you discriminating against me?"
"What? Oh! Sorry, sorry!" The driver quickly stopped smiling. "I should have said partner instead of female companion. This is my lack of professional ethics. Please forgive me."
Then, the driver began to concentrate on driving, not daring to chat much, and quietly increased the speed.
"Political Correctness in the New Federation".
Yang Ming closed his eyes and rested.
Still about dozens of kilometers away from the town, Yang Ming's feeling of irritability became more and more obvious.
The instincts of the secondary ancient god life form seemed to be stirring again.
Is it because it is not far from that group of necrotic cells?
Yang Ming raised his hand and tapped the frame of his glasses. Lu began to pay attention to the changes in Yang Ming's various physical indexes and sent a text message to Yang Ming.
[Boss, your brain waves suddenly become unusually active. ]
[Your body has complex radiation waves, but your body temperature is normal. This is somewhat incredible.]
[Boss, the effect of the gene stabilizer is beginning to wane, get out of there! You can't get close to that!]
Yang Ming's breathing inexplicably became heavy.
He opened his eyes, which were bloodshot, and then closed them tightly before the driver looked over.
Yang Ming suddenly said, "I'm feeling a little unwell, can you stop the car?"
"Guest, do you want to urinate?"
The driver looked around and dropped the hovercraft to the edge of the grain field below.
They were originally driving on a 'country dirt road', and there were few vehicles in front or behind the suspension lane.
Without waiting for the hovercraft to descend to the lowest altitude, Yang Ming pushed open the door and rushed out, lowered his head and began to dry heave, then dived into the crops in front of him that were more than a meter tall.
The driver smiled and shook his head.
He had seen this happen many times. These travelers would usually pretend to be motion sick before fertilizing the crops.
——This is not one of those big cities where you can find public toilets everywhere. This kind of thing is understandable.
The ears of crops swayed gently.
Yang Ming knocked down several plants and knelt on the ground uncontrollably, covering his head with his hands and squeezing it hard.
He was suppressing the desire deep in his heart;
Suppressing the ancient god instinct that suddenly began to rise.
This is not an impulse to devour those necrotic cells!
This is……
Will to fight.
Desire to fight!
The ancient god's desire to fight!
Why?
Yang Ming clenched his teeth, veins on his neck bulged, and he let out a suppressed growl.
On the back of the second satellite of Ram Star, the Feinan was launched urgently, and Lu was about to rush over to pick up Yang Ming regardless of everything.
[Boss, there are still three minutes left for particle transmission]
"go back……"
【But】
"I can hold on!"
Yang Ming began to suppress his rapid breathing.
No one can devour him!
Not even the Valkyrie can, and not even the instincts of the ancient gods!
Yang Ming took a deep breath, every muscle in his body twisting and trembling, but the blood red in his eyes began to fade away.
Stay focused!
Gather mental power!
A faint red film of light appeared around Yang Ming.
The crops around that were exposed to the light film were withering rapidly, and Yang Ming's eyes suddenly became clear.
Only then did he realize that his knees and toes were several centimeters away from the ground.
He left the ground by kneeling!
Yang Ming subconsciously glanced behind him and found that the tall crops blocked the red light around him. He breathed a sigh of relief and immediately hid the red light film, and his body touched the ground again.
What is hidden underground?
Those things actually activated the ancient god's fighting instinct.
Yang Ming closed his eyes and his palms touched the soil of the earth.
Respond to me.
enemy.
A red light flickered gently under Yang Ming's eyelids. A darkness emerged in his heart. Spots of light appeared in the darkness. They were the countless galaxy clusters in the universe.
Just like the several times when Yang Ming communicated with the Valkyrie Posa, the starry sky background appeared again this time.
This seems to be a foreshadowing.
But the difference is that this time, it was not a single, beautiful Valkyrie that appeared in front of Yang Ming.
But...
Each one flashes with light green light...
Insect eggs.
