Walk alone in the abyss

The closer he was to that merchant ship, the stronger the desire in Yang Ming's heart.

It was as if Valkyrie Po Whirling was there, and she was still extremely weak and could be easily suppressed by herself.

But rationality told Yang Ming... this is the New Federation, not the Sherman Empire.

Even the complete life form of the ancient gods does not have the ability to leap through space. It is impossible for the Valkyrie to appear in this distant and strange star field at this stage.

"What would that thing be?"

Yang Ming whispered softly.

He stared intently at the spaceship to the lower left.

The ship is a 300-meter-class passenger and cargo ship. According to the report obtained from the preliminary scan, the front third of the hull is a passenger cabin, with about 100 passengers, and the rear cargo warehouse is filled with various containers.

It stands to reason that this merchant ship should have been ordinary, but in a few containers in the corner of the warehouse, Feinan's life detector detected more than 60 life forms.

According to the fuzzy perspective imaging, there were more than 60 heavily armed federal soldiers.

They're escorting something.

"Law, assess the ease of invading the ship."

"Yes... Considering the current environment, the difficulty of intrusion is: Difficult."

"Why?" Yang Ming frowned, "This is just an ordinary merchant ship, and there are more than sixty ordinary soldiers. I can directly deal with them with a few grenades."

"Boss, this place is too close to the Ram star. Since the other party has activated the circumplanetary gravitational detection device, it must have a supporting high-power radar.

"Feinan's particle transporter is easily exposed.

"If you want to forcibly land the ship, even if we block the merchant ship's external help signal, there is a high probability that Ram will be alerted immediately.

"Once it is targeted by the other party, there is only a 50% chance that the Feinan will escape the territory of the New Federation."

Law added:

"It's you who asked everything to be careful, and you can't deal with more than sixty soldiers in an instant."

"Lun, my instinct tells me that there is something very important to me," Yang Ming thought, "However, this desire should come from another side of my instinct...Lun, bring the stabilizer here. "

"I'll get it!"

026 immediately volunteered, turned and ran to the corner of the bridge.

Soon, she returned to Yang Ming with the tray, and crouched slightly.

Yang Ming first picked up a finger-sized 'pocket lightsaber', aimed at the elbow socket of his right arm and pressed the switch, piercing a tiny gap in the skin.

Immediately after that, he picked up the metal needle tube and inserted the needle into the gap, allowing the gene stabilizer to be quickly pushed in.

026 watched this scene frowning.

Although she didn't know what the ingredients in the injection were, she felt...Mr. Yang Ming was actually working very hard.

"call--"

Yang Ming breathed a sigh of relief.

The restlessness in my heart became much calmer.

"Lil, do we still have Type 6 spy drones?"

"There are seven more."

"Release four units and set the goal to monitor those containers," Yang Ming said in a low voice, "I must at least know what is attracting me."

"Okay boss, I'll do it."

Law agreed, and the projection quickly disappeared.

Li's current consciousness is entrusted to the two main brains, but miraculously there is no split.

The mastermind hiding in the dark star gave all his computing power to planning the development of the dark star and supervising the entire Luofeng Empire. The mastermind on Feinan now has plenty of computing power, so it's no problem to do such a small job.

Yang Ming suddenly called out to Lü, "Wait a minute."

"Boss, what's the matter?"

Yang Ming looked at 026.

026 pursed his lips nervously.

"I remember, your hands are very skillful, right?" Yang Ming asked, "I have seen the handicrafts you made."

"Yes boss, I have practiced painting for two and a half years."

"Hurry up and go to the delivery bay," Yang Ming said in a low voice, "Find the small drone that will be used next at a relatively hidden location, and paint the emperor star logo of the Sherman Empire on it."

"Okay, okay!"

026 turned her head and ran, her back glowed slightly, and her running speed increased sharply.

A few minutes later, four thumb-sized balls were delivered to the cabin of the merchant ship.

They found the spaceship's deck connection, hid themselves in it, and quietly waited for the opportunity to start up again.

Feinan began to move towards the distance, hiding behind a satellite of Ram Star again.

"All we have to do now is wait."

Yang Ming stretched his waist:

"I'll go to sleep, Li will maintain the highest level of vigilance, and jump directly in case of emergency."

"Okay boss," Lu's projection jumped out behind 026, pressed 026's shoulder, and asked with a smile, "Do you need 026 to tell you a bedtime story?"

026 was a little at a loss.

Yang Ming shrugged: "I don't think about my employees easily, don't scare her."

026 secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

After Yang Ming left, 026 asked in a low voice, "Lü, what is a Type 6 spy drone."

"It's a spy drone," Ritsu poked 026's face lightly with his insubstantial fingers.

026 felt the real touch. Lily explained to her before that this is a realistic touch developed based on the simulated gravity system, which is the black technology on this spaceship.

026 wondered: "Is this any different from the two types of spy drones I learned to operate?"

"The characteristic of the Type 6 spy drone is that it is relatively stealthy."

Lu continued to use his hands and feet:

“Conducting espionage activities in the New Federation is several times more difficult than conducting espionage activities in Luofengxingxing.

"This spy drone has an automatic operation system that can effectively avoid all kinds of detection. It can continuously track the target for dozens of galaxies. If it is discovered by the other party, it will automatically explode and the collected information will be recorded before the explosion. Send them back together.

“Ordinary spy drones need to continuously send and receive signals, and they can be easily exposed in the face of well-equipped opponents.

“With this drone, although we are not sure what intelligence can be collected, it is a bit of a hit and miss, but it will only send us information once when it determines that there is no danger.

"And to be more secure, I have set up two signal transfer servers, which will not directly receive the signal to our spacecraft."

026 suddenly understood.

Lu's fingers poked at her chest, and 026 hugged herself subconsciously, staring at Lu with a pair of big pure eyes.

"Tsk," Lu said thoughtfully, "Don't the boss like your figure very much? Is it because the quality is insufficient and the gravity is not enough? How about some mechanical modifications?"

"don't want!"

026 took two steps back and disappeared in a flash.

In the captain's lounge of the Feinan.

Yang Ming tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, always having the urge to rush to the merchant ship.

Low pleasure comes from indulgence, high pleasure comes from restraint. ——Levi Sherman.

He must learn to restrain the instinct of the ancient gods.

The first is human beings.

Then there is the secondary ancient god life form.

Yang Ming took a deep breath, lay down on his back, and began to gather his energy. A red light film was wrapped around his body, and his arms and calves were rising slightly.

He was trying to learn the Valkyrie's 'flight' to distract himself.

The merchant ship slowly entered the atmosphere of Ram Star.

The restlessness in Yang Ming's heart finally calmed down.

…

Nine galactic hours later.

The four spy drones destroyed themselves one after another and sent back the intelligence they collected.

Three drones were abandoned without any valuable intelligence. According to the photos and audio information they sent back, they all stayed in a warehouse for six hours.

But fortunately, the last drone was successful.

Lu briefly organized the intelligence collected by the drone and quickly found Yang Ming who was lifting irons in the gym.

"Boss! There's a big problem!"

"What?"

"The thing you sensed before should be the remains of the Valkyrie!"

Lu said quickly:

"I don't know what means the New Federation used. Sherman's research institute responsible for receiving the remnants of the Valkyrie recovered about twenty grams of necrotic cell membranes! That's the pink wax juice!"

"Remnant slough? That kind of ghost thing left after the Valkyrie's body disintegrated when she was captured? I'll go!"

Yang Ming suddenly felt a little nauseous.

He would actually have the desire to devour this thing!

But then, Yang Ming realized that he should instinctively desire to obtain the remaining power of the Valkyrie in the residual transformation.

When Valkyrie looked at him, was she so, so restless?

"Okay, I'm not interested in this thing anymore," Yang Ming took a deep breath, "There's no way I'm going to eat this kind of thing, or turn this thing into a reagent for injection... It makes me sick just thinking about it!"

"Yes, boss, I don't recommend you to take risks for this kind of thing."

Lu's expression was also hard to describe:

"We can even catch the Valkyrie in a weak state. I have prepared the mining ship you asked me to buy. They are surveying for minerals on several planets where the Valkyrie may appear.

"But, boss, that's not the big problem I'm talking about."

Yang Ming asked: "Any other unexpected discoveries?"

"What an unexpected discovery," Lu whispered, "Boss, please go to the bridge first, and I will sort out the information. I feel like the Valkyrie is protecting you in the dark, and actually used this method to attract you to find out. Such important information.”

The corners of Yang Ming's mouth twitched slightly.

He didn't like this rhetoric.

Moreover, this guy Ritsu actually started to sell things off! Sure enough, he learned bad things from that old guy Kolev!

Yang Ming was not in a hurry. He took a shower first, changed into looser pajamas, and then slowly walked to the bridge.

As soon as he sat down in the captain's seat, 026 took small steps forward and delivered the brewed Luofengxiang tea to Yang Ming.

Lu did not show his body directly, but a pocket projection screen popped up in front of Yang Ming, and a photo and the corresponding audio began to appear on it.

Each piece of audio was somewhat distorted and must have gone through complex extraction processing. The eavesdroppers all used the Galactic lingua franca of the New Federation, but Yang Ming could barely hear it clearly.

First, the two officers escorting the ‘Ancient God Can Slough’ complained:

"My vacation was completely ruined because of this unexpected mission."

"The damn CIA just made a big mistake. They can't wait to make a contribution, otherwise their budget will definitely be slashed next year. I heard that the contents of this box are highly secretive of the Sherman Empire. The CIA spent a lot of money. Get it for a small price."

"I heard it was a mass of necrotic cells... It's all the fault of the trash from the CIA. Because of their wrong intelligence, the two voyage formations suffered heavy losses and our motherland became a laughing stock."

"Yes, there is a planetary cannon buried under the first star of the Luofeng Empire, and they don't even know about it."

"It is said that this empire has never used this cannon since its founding. This is the first time a planetary cannon has been used. None of the princes or princesses knew of its existence."

"I heard from the people above that the CIA will not let this small country go, and they are already planning other operations to destroy the country... Maybe they will use those things."

"Hey, this is not what we should discuss. No matter what you hear in the base on Ram, forget it, I don't want to cause trouble."

"What are you afraid of? If we work for another three months, our memories of the past two years will be erased. Don't worry if we talk about this... Do you think they will feed the necrotic cells in this box to those things? "

"I don't want to engage in this topic."

"Fine."

…

those things?

Ram star is really weird.

Moreover, the CIA may use 'those things' against the Luofeng Empire!

"Boss, could it be a biochemical weapon?" Law whispered, "Some viruses, bacteria, etc."

Yang Ming asked back: "Can viruses and bacteria eat cell clusters? They subconsciously used the word eat. Those things should be of a certain size."

"That's not clear...there's a second paragraph."

The photo turned into two old men in white coats. They were standing behind the truck compartment, and they were signaling to the officer holding the box to open the combination box.

"Oh, Professor Pat, look quickly, this is the remnant left by the humanoid ancient god."

"What kind of monsters did the Sherman Empire create! Humanoid ancient gods, I dare not even think about it!"

"Our country has completely lagged behind them in terms of genetic modification. I have dealt with that Kigrove, and he is a complete lunatic."

"Now I still feel that there is something wrong with the experiment we did here?"

"No, Professor Pat, you are correct. If you can consume the national power of the Sherman Empire without sacrificing our country's interests, then there is nothing unjust. The evil Sherman is the greatest human civilization in the galaxy. enemy."

"Hahaha, you are so funny," Professor Pat's laughter subsided, and his voice became extremely low. "This is an injustice, but we have no choice."

The other old man was suddenly speechless and could only try to change the subject.

"Professor Pat, the CIA asked us to provide a batch of experimental products, saying that they were going to be delivered to the Luofeng Empire. Shall we agree to them?"

"You are the director, this is up to you," Professor Pat said in a low voice. "It would be great if there is a test site for live animals. We need to observe their reproduction speed in a natural state."

The voice ends here.

...

The bridge of the Feinan was quiet.

There are three more valuable speeches, but they all refer to 'those things' vaguely.

"Luofeng is our base camp now," Yang Ming said in a low voice, "These damned federal guys! Law, it seems that our mission needs to be adjusted. The first priority is to find the formula for strengthening injections, and the second priority is to adjust Hiding the truth to investigate Ram Star."

"Good boss."

"I need to find a way to sneak in." Yang Ming got up and paced back and forth, his brain spinning rapidly, "Go and investigate this Professor Pat and the director, as long as they are still human, they will have flaws."

"Boss, we haven't been able to connect to the local network yet."

"Take a detour," Yang Ming immediately said, "Go to other places to get your identity first, and then come here. The new Federation is so big, I don't believe there is no leak."

Law agreed and then fell silent.

The Feinan began to turn away.

Standing in front of the porthole, Yang Ming looked at the Ram star, which was left with only dim spots of light, and felt a bad premonition in his heart.

Seven galactic days later.

A merchant ship slowly flew towards Ram.

In the window seat of the merchant ship's business class, Yang Ming, a 'student party' wearing casual sportswear and glasses, looked at the travel brochure in front of him with a smile.

It's really hard to get a fake identity in the New Federation.

In order to save time, Yang Ming had no choice but to activate 'Uncle Hatton's contacts'.

Now he is a college student in an ordinary university, and he is traveling across stars before graduation.

And an agricultural star with beautiful scenery is an excellent choice to relax and relieve the pressure of graduation.

The sweet voice of the stewardess sister sounded again:

"Passengers, we are about to arrive at the beautiful planet Ram, I hope you will have a wonderful holiday here.

"Happy Farm Group welcomes you, where you can experience the joy of primitive labor, and picking textile fibers is the most popular experience item.

"It's an ad.

"There will be slight bumps when entering the atmosphere. Please sit still and support yourself. If it is not necessary, there will be no toilet."

Yang Ming raised his head to look at the flight attendant not far ahead, the beautiful lady with delicate makeup just happened to look up.

She blinked at Yang Ming, which seemed to be some kind of hint.

Yang Ming, however, lowered his head 'shyly' and continued to read the travel brochure, without giving the other party any 'confirmation' signal.

Picking up girls and exploring the secrets of Star Ram, of course the latter is more important!
