Star Ocean: Starting From the Abandoned Mining Space Station

Chapter 116 Yu Hui's Urgency

Old Wu, who was called by Chen Ming, quickly went to the sentry again.

Because he was busy with various needs on Chen Ming's side, his whole spirit and energy looked much better than before.

However, his habit did not change. After getting on the ship, he ran to the captain's room as soon as possible, sat on the chair, crossed his legs and asked: "Xiao Ming, what's the matter this time?"

Chen Ming did not rush to explain the matter, but said: "No hurry, tell me the bad news first."

"I will leave my original position and go to the galaxy within the galaxy soon. I can't change Yu Hui's sudden arrangement. This news must be sent out for me, so as not to let the company come back empty-handed."

"Because of this, I may be a little short of time later, so I will try some new things now while I have the last bit of time."

"Oh."

Old Wu nodded and asked: "You said Yu Hui will send you to a new place? Where is it?"

As soon as the words fell, Old Wu saw a star map displayed on the control panel in front of him, with a galaxy marked on it.

"Here? Okay, but why did they suddenly move you to another place?"

Chen Ming responded: "It's not sudden, it's a matter of time."

"The place I was in before was just where Yu Hui temporarily placed me. They must send me to a place with tighter security and more technical equipment."

"I've thought about it before, but I'm still a little reluctant at this time."

Old Wu asked with some doubt: "What's there to be reluctant about?"

"I'm a little reluctant to give up the technology, materials, and environment. Yu Hui gave me two tachyon spears for experiments, and more than that. To be honest, it's hard to do it. I feel a little embarrassed to have cheated Yu Hui too much."

"The Speed ​​Spear... that's really awesome, but I heard you blew up one of Yu Hui's mining sites? You call that embarrassing?"

"You can't say that. I felt very sad when I cheated."

Old Wu said casually: "What's there to be sad about?"

"It's been so many years since Yu Hui defected from humans. How many people have died in the wars every year?"

"If you don't count the other people far away, then what about the people nearby? Didn't you encounter two attacks from Yu Hui a while ago? They didn't show mercy to you at that time, and you were almost killed."

"What's sad about you? " "That's right." Old Wu, who thought Chen Ming was just talking nonsense, suddenly seemed to realize something and asked hurriedly: "Are you serious? Do you really feel this way?" Chen Ming did not lie and said honestly: "A little bit." "Good fellow, you are being PUA, just give you some benefits and you are like this? Wait, how old are you?" "Twenty-five." "I said it." Old Wu suddenly said in an old-fashioned way: "Xiao Ming, you are still too young and have little experience. I looked at your resume before and it seems that you have been studying hard and working hard all the way to get promoted to that... It should be the maintenance team leader, right? ?”

“Yes.”

“So, if you know more about the ways of the world, learn to flatter, read people’s expressions, and set traps for your colleagues, wouldn’t your skills have been upgraded long ago? Why are you still a small team leader here?”

“You are still upset because you cheated Yu Hui? What are you thinking?”

“You should know that Yu Hui is very smart. They will make a lot of money if you have this idea in your mind.”

“If they treat you better in the future, will you still feel uncomfortable? If you feel uncomfortable one day, you will not want to cheat them anymore, wouldn’t that be bad?”

Chen Ming thought about it carefully and found that it was really like what Lao Wu said.

Of course, Chen Ming was not referring to the bunch of “little tricks” in the workplace that Lao Wu said.

Even if Chen Ming wanted to learn these things, he could definitely learn them, but he didn’t want to learn them, and there was no special reason, he just didn’t want to learn them.

And he also had a feeling that if he really learned them, his interpersonal relationships would definitely be quite different from now.

So Chen Ming just skipped over what Old Wu said. The key point was what Old Wu said about Yu Hui's behavior, and the background that Yu Hui and Chen Ming, who was a human, would inevitably conflict.

The conflict between Yu Hui and humans has been accumulating for a long time, and Chen Ming can never ease it by just communicating with Yu Hui normally.

But there is a way to resolve the conflict between Yu Hui and humans, but this method is more difficult.

So even if Chen Ming is doing this to a certain extent now, he dare not guarantee that he can do it.

But after Old Wu said this, Chen Ming suddenly became more confused. What did Hui Huang mean by those words?

Who did Hui Huang believe in? What was it?

Forget it.

At least Old Wu's words made Chen Ming completely let go of the psychological barriers that suddenly emerged in his heart before, and he could continue to trick Yu Hui without any burden.

After Old Wu reminded him, he didn't say much, and asked again along the lines of what Chen Ming had just said: "So what are you going to try this time? It is likely that you asked me to come here because of your psychic power?"

"Almost, but not only that. The experiment can be put aside for now. I have something else to tell you."

"About my fleet and pirates."

Chen Ming's current fleet prototype has been built.

The two Centurions that he asked Lao Wu to help buy have already stopped at the Pirate Space Station.

Storm and Gladiator were also sent back here by Chen Ming a few days ago.

There is also a Refraction, which is also on its way back.

According to Chen Ming's previous arrangement, Refraction has been in hundreds of galaxies within a 50-light-year diameter area outside the buffer zone of the Afterglow Mechanical Clan.

Based on the possibility of habitable planets on stars, most galaxies have been run through.

After a simple scan, the number of confirmed valuable galaxies can only be said to be very small.

There are only six in total.

There are planets with life in two galaxies.

One of them is a habitable planet, and the other has toxic components in its atmosphere, which is not habitable, but the existence of life is already valuable enough.

Among the other four star systems, three of them have open-pit mineral veins discovered by Qu Guang on the surface of the planets in the star system, and they are all high-value mineral veins such as tungsten, titanium, nickel, and cobalt.

The last one is very special.

It is also a habitable planet, and there are no toxic components in the atmosphere.

But there are some things on it, which are similar to the mechanical mind pulse generators that Chen Ming has seen before, and some mechanical-style buildings.

And they are not ruins, but they are still intact when Qu Guang discovered them, and they are likely to be dormant equipment.

Chen Ming is not sure whether there are mechanical people in these buildings, but anyway, he did not let Qu Guang get too close, just recorded them and investigated them later.

Of course, these valuable star systems are just the results of Qu Guang's simple scan. There must be more than what Chen Ming scanned in these star systems, and there must be other things.

And Chen Ming did not scan those gas or ice giant planets because they were too dangerous.

So when Chen Ming has an exploration ship with detailed scanning capabilities, he will go back and take a look, and he should be able to find more valuable planets.

Of course, it is definitely not possible now, and the results of the planet scan have nothing to do with Lao Wu.

The key point now is that Qu Guang has returned after the scan is completed.

And before, Chen Ming got Qu Guang a spacecraft identification code through the factory director, so that he can move properly within the empire. Of course, Qu Guang's weapons make it difficult for him to enter the prosperous star field.

But the number of pirates in the prosperous star field is obviously not as good as that in the marginal star field, and Chen Ming has no idea of ​​the past.

In short, Chen Ming now has five ships, which can be called a small fleet.

With a fleet, he will naturally go to find trouble with pirates.

After learning Chen Ming's purpose, Lao Wu immediately reacted and said: "Pirates, you told me before, I helped you check it."

"But pirates are all living people. If the time interval is too long, I don't know where they have gone. If you need it, I can help you find all the bounties nearby."

"Okay, I'll tell you now, it should be in the next few days."

It just so happens that Qu Guang needs time to go back, and Chen Ming is not in a hurry.

He believed that Old Wu would help him find the pirates.

Then there was another thing.

"The ability experiment... Let's go outside. This experiment cannot be avoided by other people."

Old Wu stood up and stretched his hands and feet, and walked down the Sentinel.

Chen Ming switched his view to the Storm parked next to him, and checked the Sentinel through the Storm's camera.

Chen Ming's eyes first swept around the surroundings, and he could see that around the corner of the repair shop where his several ships were parked, an extra layer of partitions was added to separate this place from other places in the repair shop that could be rented out.

I don't know if it was the idea of ​​the factory director or other people in the company.

Chen Ming took a few more glances, and then retracted his gaze.

At the same time, he opened the panel of the Sentinel, as well as the panel of the Weiguang that Chen Ming had placed in the dark cemetery for a long time.

Chen Ming had finished reading the technical books given by Yu Hui that used Weiguang as a teaching blueprint a few days ago. Accordingly, in addition to learning those technologies, he also mastered the blueprint of Weiguang.

As long as Chen Ming is given enough equipment and materials, he can build a new Weiguang on the spot.

So Chen Ming plans to give it a try.

Of course not through equipment, but through his panel ability.

Although Chen Ming's high-intensity work every day during this period consumed his mental power, and he was also relying on the Falsehood Stone to exercise his mental power, his mental power increased again, and the number of controllable spaceships on the panel increased to 4.

But the manufacturing function still did not appear on the panel.

So Chen Ming's idea was to find another way.

Risking the loss of a Weiguang, he transformed the Sentinel into a Weiguang through the transformation function.

Chen Ming could afford this loss.

And this idea is feasible.

As Chen Ming's study of various technologies deepened, many things that were not there before gradually appeared on the modification panel.

Chen Ming can now modify the entire spacecraft.

From the cabins and sections of the spacecraft to the details of every corner of the spacecraft, and even the angle of a certain section of the radiation energy pipeline, Chen Ming can modify it.

When Chen Ming transformed all parts of a ship into the shape of the afterglow spacecraft.

This ship is the afterglow ship.

After Lao Wu left the sentinel for a distance, Chen Ming began.

He first dismantled the glimmer that had not been used since it was obtained until today, and turned it into neat materials.

And under his active control, it appeared in the storage cabin of the mule parked in the maintenance plant.

These materials did not stay for too long, and soon turned into liquid and aggregated together, seeping out of the ship, flowing under Lao Wu's feet, and flowing to the sentinel.

Seeing this, Lao Wu squatted down and reached out to hold a handful, but these metal liquids slipped from his hands in an instant like weightless water.

These liquids completely wrapped the sentinel, and the structure of the sentinel itself was completely squeezed out and piled up next to it.

This transformation lasted about thirty seconds, much faster than the five minutes that Chen Ming pretended to take in front of Yu Hui before.

However, it was still longer than Chen Ming thought, but fortunately, the consumption of mental power was still within his acceptable range.

After the metal liquids were completely condensed, only a glimmer was left.

Old Wu saw the spaceship change its appearance in an instant in front of him, and couldn't help but open his mouth and said: "This is..."

"This is an attempt to use my psychic transformation ability, and the effect seems to be good. But there are also limitations. It must be a spaceship that I have learned to make myself."

"What kind of ship can it be?"

"I am transforming it, and I can only transform it from a spaceship to another spaceship of the same level."

"Good guy, it's getting more and more perverted."

Although the Zhaosu glimmer after Chen Ming's transformation did not look special, it was like swapping the positions of two spaceships of the same level.

But the effect of the ability is not just about whether the result of the transformation is good or not.

Chen Ming's ability means that as long as he learns from Yu Hui, he can continue to send Yu Hui's technology back from a long distance in this way.

In other application scenarios, such as in battle, or at a time point close to the battle, it can also be used to replace more suitable warships.

At the same time, replacing the spacecraft also has a certain degree of repair function.

Although it is not as good as the genuine repair, it is more functional than the repair.

Or, as long as Chen Ming is given a batch of the most basic spacecraft frames and enough materials, he can have extremely terrifying productivity alone.

Of course, it is necessary to ensure that the mental strength can support it.

After asking Chen Ming to confirm that Chen Ming has finished the work, Lao Wu stepped forward and touched the glimmer.

After personally confirming that the glimmer really exists, his face once again showed an uncontrollable shock.

At this time, it is not only Lao Wu who can see this scene.

Several surveillance cameras in the maintenance plant, especially the surveillance of Chen Ming's spacecraft, are manned 24 hours a day.

So when Old Wu and Wei Guang made some moves, several people on the company's board of directors were also paying attention to this place.

After watching the whole process of the Sentinel turning into Wei Guang, a director asked the chairman in the private communication channel of the board members: "Should the plan continue? Chen Ming staying with Yu Hui seems to bring us more benefits."

The chairman did not hesitate and said directly: "My opinion is to continue to implement it. Such capabilities can only be used as spies with Yu Hui, but if he comes back, there will definitely be more than what we see now."

"Look at that spaceship, Yu Hui's Wei Guang level."

"Although we have obtained enough blueprints at present, there are still many problems to be solved if we want to actually manufacture it."

"And Chen Ming did it."

"How long has it been? Even if Yu Hui's spaceship just relies on memory to memorize the blueprint, giving you more than half a month, is it enough?"

The director who asked the question shut up.

The chairman continued, "So we have to save Chen Ming. We don't need him to steal technology from Yu Hui. We just need him to come back and help us develop technology."

"So I wonder if we need to agree to the Fourteenth Corps' request."

"I think everyone knows that the Fourteenth Corps is seeking cooperation with us recently, right?"

The director who was previously responsible for handling military-related affairs was also a member of the real-time monitoring of the repair plant. After the chairman finished speaking, he immediately said, "I think it's okay."

"It seems that the Fourteenth Corps has follow-up support on the way, and it doesn't rely solely on us to do things."

"It is said that although they have gained a certain advantage on the front line, their strategic goals seem to have not been achieved."

"They plan to invest more here to remedy the situation."

The chairman added: "So I think we can agree to the military's request for fleet assistance, and we can also release some of the material supply."

At this time, a director suddenly poured cold water and said: "What about our Sky Steel?"

The chairman immediately responded: "The 14th Corps has shown signs of loosening up. We can agree to some of them on a small scale first and see if they will continue to loosen up."

"Then do we need to change our action plan for Yu Hui?"

The chairman thought for a while and said: "The Corps told us the rough plan before, saying that after finding out Chen Ming's position, they will directly launch a surprise attack."

"Take advantage of Yu Hui's opportunity to rescue Chen Ming and absorb Attract their attention, and when the Afterglow Fleet is attracted, use the jump engine to jump directly to their core, that is, the location of Kletka. "

"Catch the thief first, and kill this piece of Afterglow completely with one blow."

Before the chairman said what he thought, a director immediately said: "This is too dangerous, and does the Legion know where Kletka is?"

The chairman knew this very well: "They don't know, so they keep arguing with us, hoping to get the way to contact Chen Ming from us."

"It's not easy for us to contact ourselves now. Chen Ming has obviously lost some trust in us because of the last incident."

"Contact him rashly, I am really worried that Chen Ming will turn around and join Yu Hui completely. "

"The pressure in Yu Hui's place is beyond our imagination."

"If we take the initiative to contact him again and put external pressure on him, it is not surprising that he will do anything because of this."

"Unless there is an emergency, try to maintain the status quo of indirect contact, which will also help us to have a say in the joint meeting."

"And the military plan is actually not very beneficial to us."

"If we can eliminate Yu Hui, we can indeed be the first group to open up the territory, but people from other places will pounce on us like sharks smelling blood."

"If we lose too much before, even if we occupy Even if we take the initiative, we may not be able to get enough benefits from it, and it may even make us lose our future competitiveness. "

"So we will not participate in the subsequent raids, we are only responsible for rescuing Chen Ming."

The chairman took a sip of water and continued: "If the plan can start smoothly as originally planned, I will take the initiative to undertake the rescue and attention-attracting tasks at the meeting, so that the 14th Corps can raid Yu Hui's hometown on its own."

"And our ships are enough for us to forcefully break into the galaxy where Chen Ming is now and attract enough Yu Hui."

"That's it, I will bring it up at the next formal board meeting, and you can raise your opinions now."

The chairman quietly waited for the other directors to speak.

However, what he didn't expect was that another director joined the communication channel.

And it was the director who was in charge of various pirate space stations on weekdays.

The director said in a very urgent tone as soon as he joined the communication channel: "I suddenly received an urgent message from the person in charge of the space station."

"Wu Ping'an contacted me and said that Chen Ming would soon be transferred to a new place by Yu Hui."

"Where?"

"I sent the star map."

The communication channel was quiet for a while, and the chairman was the first to speak: "It seems that our previous guess was wrong. Yu Hui did not put Chen Ming in the final position from the beginning."

"Instead, they have been preparing until today."

"Fortunately, we have considered this aspect before, but the plan must be changed."

The chairman looked at the director in charge of military affairs and said: "Go and notify the legion. The meeting has to be reopened."

Just when Xinda Company was about to get busy with the joint meeting.

Chen Ming was in the factory of Yu Hui Colony, packing his things.

There were not many things. Chen Ming could directly use psychic energy to send materials to the maintenance plant for storage.

The only trouble for Chen Ming now was the sixty-three escape pods.

But just when Chen Ming was struggling, Huihuang got Chen Ming a buffalo-class cargo ship.

Looking at the fresh damage on it, it was probably caused by Yu Hui and his group's recent conflict with humans.

Chen Ming must have accepted it happily. Anyway, the people on the ship must have died. It was pure stupidity for him not to accept it.

However, after Chen Ming loaded all the things he should take away onto the buffalo.

Huihuang suddenly said to Chen Ming: "Emergency notice, Mr. Chen, you must leave here today."

"Now?"

"Yes."

Chen Ming was stunned for a moment and asked: "Why?"

"No reason."

Chen Ming's mind was suddenly filled with doubts.

Yu Hui just gave Chen Ming a lot of time to pack up slowly.

Suddenly so urgent, is there something unexpected?

Or is there a spy of Yu Hui among humans?

Several thoughts flashed through Chen Ming's mind.

But these speculations were soon ruled out.

How long has it been since Chen Ming told Lao Wu that he was going to be transferred? How many people can the news reach?

If even the people who contacted Lao Wu's company might be spies, then Xinda Company might as well go bankrupt.

So there must be other reasons.

But Chen Ming couldn't figure out what the reason was.

He could only hurriedly pack up some tools he usually used in the factory control room and boarded the Iron Ore.

With the buffalo he had just obtained, he arrived in space following Huihuang's guidance.

He was incorporated into Yu Hui's fleet.

The Huihuang-class cruiser controlled by Huihuang was waiting for him here.

In addition, there was a heavy unmanned cruiser of Yu Hui's Refraction-class in the fleet.

The fleet of more than 100 ships consisting of two cruisers escorted him, and Chen Ming had nothing to say about this treatment.

There was no chance for him to escape, nor any chance for rescue.

But it would be too late to rescue him now, unless the company had been prepared and happened to come today.

Otherwise, it would be too late.

But in the end, the situation that flashed through Chen Ming's mind did not appear.

Until the jump engines of Brilliance and Refraction were started, no human ships appeared.

Chen Ming felt a little regretful, but it didn't matter to him at this time.

He didn't expect anyone else to come to rescue him.

After he was sent away, it would be much more difficult for the company or other forces to contact him and rescue him.

The current situation was nothing more than a firmer determination for Chen Ming to rely on himself.

Even if he was taken to the depths of Yuhui's territory, he would definitely have a way to leave in the future.

The jump engine allowed Chen Ming to quickly reach a new galaxy.

Just as Chen Ming was about to observe the situation in the galaxy.

Chen Ming suddenly found that Lao Wu was actively touching the Weiguang he had modified.

After noticing that the camera outside the Weiguang moved, he spread his hands helplessly and pointed at the terminal in his hand.

A video call was going on on the terminal.

The scene on the other side was very familiar to Chen Ming, it was the factory director's office.

However, there were three people in the office.

In addition to the factory director, there were two people Chen Ming did not know who were also in the video call.

One was wearing a uniform that only the senior management of Xinda Company would wear, and the other was wearing the uniform of the 14th Legion.
