Volume 9: Star Cave Chapter 4 Interstellar Tomb Raider
"Why don't you just die! Don't die!! Don't die!!!" the translator conveyed the words of the furious Delan people.
He was beating and scolding his "servant" madly.
In the Star Cave dimension, because there are so many races, it is inevitable that there are "slaves".
Whether they were captives after racial wars or commodities sold as resources by fellow tribesmen, they enriched the slave owners and the slave industry.
Many races have the habit of holding slaves.
When they traveled in the universe, they often brought their slaves with them. If they encountered danger, these slaves would be the best sacrifices.
The Delan people are a race that is accustomed to holding slaves.
Their racial abilities are also suited to keeping slaves.
Different races and forces have different views on slaves.
But the most common value is to stay out of other people’s business.
At this time, a slave of the Delan people, while enduring beatings and scolding, stared at Lu Bai and Yu Hui with his eyes.
Feeling the other person's gaze, Yu Hui finally came out of her own emotions and saw the slave.
The slave was wearing a loose robe, which he lifted up now, revealing his very obvious earthling features.
This is not common.
Over the years, many people have indeed left the Earth, but compared to the myriad dimensions, they are very rare.
Not to mention the specific dimension of the Star Cave, or even an entrance port of this space station.
In a place like this, the probability of meeting an "Earthling" is really too small.
In response to this, Yu Hui immediately became serious.
"Is there someone targeting us?" This thought is very normal.
They, the people on Earth, are indeed in a state of being sniped.
Although an agreement has been reached with other White Scale Societies and some extra-dimensional forces that are friendly to the Earth.
The people on Earth can receive the same level of protection as the citizens of these extra-dimensional forces when they are outside the Earth . However, this kind of protection only prevents those who want to attack them from bullying the weak. However, conflicts on the same level are still inevitable.
Therefore, it is entirely possible that other travelers deliberately brought Earth slaves with them in order to set traps.
"My fellow tribesmen, save me!" Just as Yu Hui was thinking, the slave who looked like an Earthling suddenly broke free from the people next to him and rushed towards Lu Bai and the others.
He spoke the Earth language, not very fluently, and looked at the two of them with pleading eyes.
"You are looking for death!" The Delan alien was already in a state of rage after being frightened. Now seeing that one of his slaves dared to betray him, he became even more angry to the extreme.
He raised a short stick similar to a pistol and aimed it at the escaped slave. At the same time, he glanced at Lu Bai and Yu Hui, as well as the white-scaled navigation standing next to them.
Those green eyes seemed to be able to speak, warning Lu Bai and others not to meddle in other people's business.
Just when Yu Hui was thinking about how to deal with this matter, Lu Bai took action.
With a point of his finger, a beam of magic light shot out and hit the slave who was rushing over.
The other person's running posture paused, and he fell to the ground and slid for a distance, his body constantly shaking on the ground.
Soon, the slave lost his human form.
It became a pool of white liquid.
At the same time, many tiny tentacles gradually grew on this pool of liquid, exactly the same as the hair tentacles on the heads of the Delan people.
Only then did Yu Hui realize that this slave was not actually human.
The other party should be just a mimicry. After observing Lu Bai and Yu Hui, it mimicked the similar appearance features of the two. It even learned part of the Earth language through the brief communication between Lu Bai and Yu Hui.
If the two people could not bear to see their fellow species become slaves and did not see the true face of the other party and intervened in this matter, then perhaps with the contact, this mimicry creature would become more and more like a human, and finally realize complete mimicry.
At this time, the Delan alien also calmed down.
He immediately put away his weapon, walked over apologetically, and said sincerely: "I'm very sorry, my slave bumped into you."
No one who can come to the Star Cave is a fool.
Even though the other party was in a state of rage before, he calmed down in an instant and then made the most correct gesture to express his apologies to Lu Bai and others.
"As an apology, why don't we go on the next trial expedition together?" Then, the Delan people offered their own compensation.
The so-called trial expedition is what the White Scale Navigator mentioned before, which is to explore the abandoned spacecraft inside the space station.
It is said that this space station was affected by the star cave phenomenon to a certain extent because it was too close to the star cave. In addition, when the spaceship cemetery was merged, those bigwigs deliberately imitated the star cave.
Thus, a phenomenon similar to a star cave was created inside.
Although the risk and benefits are not as high as the Star Cave, it can be regarded as an experiment.
Before entering the Star Cave, many people are willing to explore deep inside the space station.
Of course, this kind of expedition is not "free" and requires a lot of money, which is how the other party makes amends.
In this regard, Lu Bai chose to agree.
According to his understanding, the more slaves the people of Delan Star have, the more financial resources they have.
The man in front of him owns about twenty slaves. Even in this dimension, he can be considered a rich man.
Although Lu Bai is not short of money, relying on Yun He's relationship, the Bailin Society here will respond to Lu Bai's requests.
However, it would be biased to view the Star Cave solely based on the relationship of the Bailin Society.
It is best to understand this dimension and the Star Cave from multiple channels.
After seeing that Lu Bai agreed, the Delan people were very happy. Several slaves around him immediately grew tentacles and came to Lu Bai.
"My name is Dengfa, and I will give these slaves to you." It is a unique etiquette of the Delan people to give their favorite slaves to their alien friends: "I hope you can forget the previous unpleasantness."
Then a low-lying flying ship arrived and pulled several people into the living area of the space station.
During this process, Dengfa has been apologizing in various ways and using apologies to bring the two parties closer together.
For this reason, the white-scaled navigator carefully used his mental power to transmit a message to Lu Bai: "He has probably seen through your identity as a traveler, and his enthusiasm for you is probably due to this."
Travelers in this dimension can have a high status. Except for the Lone Star, they can get the respect of the local controllers in any camp.
In the Star Cave Dimension, although the top forces have the ability to explore outer dimensions, this kind of exploration is only to build a scavenger fleet.
They are still very interested in materials from other dimensions.
As long as a corresponding trade route can be opened up, there will be a lot of room for profit.
"It is even possible that this conflict was intentional on the other side."
The way the Delan people control their slaves is a natural racial talent that allows them to implant their own tentacles and hair into the bodies of other life forms and then control them.
There were cases where slaves got out of control, but they were too coincidental.
It just so happened that one of the slaves lost control, and then chose to simulate the appearance of a human being and asked Lu Bai and others for help.
Lu Bai nodded to show his understanding.
This is just like pursuing a girl. First, you make a small, harmless mistake to offend the other person, and then, in the name of apology, you invite the other person to dinner, give her a gift, etc.
As a result, the previous small mistake became an opportunity to bring the two closer together.
Of course, the premise is that if you are too frustrated, this trick will have the opposite effect.
For example, if Dengfa did not have enough wealth to be worthy of Lu Bai's attention.
He would not pay any attention to the other party's tricks, and might even directly call other people to treat him as someone with ulterior motives and find an opportunity to catch him and interrogate him.
And Dengfa also chose the right target.
If Lu Bai has the personality of a "little fairy", then Deng Fa will become an alien below.
Next, everything in the space station was basically arranged by Dengfa, and the Bailin people's navigation was only to identify whether there were any traps.
From a series of arrangements, it can be seen that Dengfa is indeed a rich man, a very wealthy one.
With the help of the space station managers, three additional places were temporarily added for exploration into the interior of the space station.
You know, nowadays, the waiting line for a spot on this kind of expedition is hundreds of thousands of people.
If you want to add a person temporarily, the resources consumed will be hundreds of times that of a single quota.
After the places were confirmed, someone came to pick them up and took them to a huge hole.
There are devices similar to space elevators next to this hole.
At this time, many people were passing through this device, going down into the hole, or coming up from the bottom of the hole.
With Dengfa's financial support, they didn't have to wait long and soon entered an elevator.
The elevator went down very steadily and quickly. After waiting for about ten minutes, the elevator door opened and several roads similar to metal warehouse passages appeared in front of everyone.
This also means that they have now officially entered the cemetery area inside the space station.
In this area, they can roughly simulate what they might encounter in the Star Cave.
Looking at the metal passage that led to nowhere, the group did not hesitate. They checked their belongings and randomly chose a passage to walk in.
According to existing intelligence, the spacecraft graveyard within the space station has a certain degree of disorder in time and space due to various influences.
So no matter which channel you walk into, everything you encounter is random.
At the end of the passage are several different doors. When you open all of them, you will see different scenery inside.
Choose any door and walk in, and you will find that the scenery inside is completely different from what you see outside.
