"Blaster!"
Yi Xiaochuan muttered something, then quickly retreated. Since he had just arrived, he better not cause trouble.
Moreover, although the Sand People also have high-tech products such as blasters, they were stolen and would never fire as densely as they did in the night.
There is only one possibility, the indigenous Sand People of Tuta are fighting with the colonial aliens.
Although Eva was sure that these colonial cities were chaotic and easy to sneak into, there were still very few humans on this planet.
If a human suddenly appears and is discovered by someone with ulterior motives, there will be endless troubles.
Fortunately, this wind-corroded passage is interconnected like a maze, otherwise even if it is covered by darkness, it will definitely be discovered by those alien colonists equipped with high technology.
Needless to say, night vision goggles are not high-tech gadgets.
As for the blaster, it is an energy weapon that looks like a laser beam, but it is not actually a laser.
Whether it's a tiny pocket blaster, a blaster pistol, a larger blaster rifle, or a turbo blaster cannon, the basic blaster technology that amplifies the beam into a deadly beam of energy is largely the same, and its internal mechanisms are based on the same theories and principles.
Pulling the trigger releases volatile blaster gases into the conversion chamber, where they are excited by energy from the weapon's power source. The excited gases then pass through the narrow space of the blaster's starter module and become a powerful particle beam. A crystal prism focuses the particle beam and passes it to the calibration chamber, which "powers up" the particle beam into its final energy beam form.
These energy beams can be roughly divided into two categories: particle beams and plasma beams.
Particle beams have a stronger ability to kill physical bodies; plasma beams are more effective against machines and shields.
As for the color, it depends on the composition of the blasting gas and the focusing crystal.
All in all, blasters have nothing to do with lasers.
Laser weapons not only consume a lot of energy, but are also easily affected by weather and environment.
For example, when the chief was asked in an interview whether "laser weapons have disadvantages or shortcomings", he calmly pointed out the shortcomings of lasers: smog can greatly reduce the power and even defense of laser weapons. Because smog contains many tiny metal particles, these metal particles are equivalent to small steel balls diffused in the air after magnification, and lasers are difficult to penetrate. When PM2.5 reaches 500 or 600, the resistance to laser weapons reaches the maximum and cannot penetrate at all. For example, in weather without smog, the effective range of laser weapons is 10 kilometers. In the case of smog, it drops to 1 kilometer. The effect of this weapon in smog will be greatly reduced.
On a desert planet, this is not smog, this is a sandstorm. Let's try using laser weapons...
Moreover, the energy consumption of lasers is too high. Among weapons with the same energy density, laser weapons are not the best choice.
As he walked, Xiao Yi kept avoiding some living creatures. After walking for more than an hour, Xiao Yi finally realized that he was lost.
This wind-eroded Yadan landform is characterized by numerous cliffs of varying heights.
Over thousands of years, due to erosion by wind and rain, gullies of varying depths have formed on the ground, and the exposed stone layers have been carved into strange shapes by the strong wind: some are grinning like monsters; some are tall and dangerous platforms with distinct battlements and shapes like ancient castles; some are like pavilions with clear eaves and roofs; some are like magnificent palaces, standing proudly.
The arrow-like air currents swirled back and forth among the strange rocks and mountains, making sharp sounds like the howling of wolves and tigers, the wailing of ghosts and gods.
"It seems that the only option left is divination..."
"Divination in another world shouldn't be affected!"
Xiao Yi took out a copper coin, flicked it up into the air with his thumb, and then caught it with the back of his hand. It was the positive side.
This is naturally not Yi divination, but is similar to the Western crystal pendulum method. The yang side is yes, and the yin side is no, which is the difference between clockwise and counterclockwise, and is used to determine the direction of one's own action.
Although it is not as effective as Yi Zhan, it is still a good choice for finding the way.
Unconsciously, he seemed to have returned to the battlefield, and Oshigawa sensitively discovered the smell of blood in the air.
"I'll go?"
"It seems the battle is over..."
"The non-easy divination method is really unreliable!"
"… "
"Someone is coming..."
Xiao Yi keenly sensed that there was a humanoid creature coming towards him at a very close distance, and immediately retreated cautiously.
At this moment, a hoarse voice sounded from that direction: "Who? Raise your hands..."
Otoshi Ogawa looked at the alien who discovered him, and quickly recalled the information about this race in his mind.
Trandoshan
Species: Reptilian intelligent life
Homeworld: Trandosha
Average height: up to 2.1 meters
Skin color: green, yellow, brown, orange, red
Eye color: yellow, orange
Distinction: Scaly skin, lizard-like appearance
Abilities: Great Strength, Mimic Skin, Cold Blood, Dynamic Vision
Weapons: Various blasters
This is an alien colonial mercenary, a race that is extremely good at hiding, and of course also good at fighting, especially when they master high-tech weapons.
Just as Xiao Yi was struggling over whether to fight or flee, a child's voice appeared.
"I'm Anakin from Watto's Grocery Store... This is my friend Zorro, who came with me to look for parts..."
"Votto? The profiteer?"
"Yes, the blue-skinned Toydarian Watto..."
"I recognize you. Your performance in the shuttle race helped me win a lot of money... Go away! Remember to lose next time..."
"Zorro, let's go! We've wasted another night and found nothing..."
Xiao Yi hesitated for a moment, but still followed the golden-haired child.
Because he felt that this little boy was very unusual. When he appeared just now, he did not arouse his sixth sense.
I didn't even notice his arrival until he spoke.
As we traveled along a winding ravine, we encountered many strange races.
In this situation, Xiao Yi didn't dare to speak easily, he just followed.
Of course, to be on the safe side, Xiao Yi secretly asked for divination.
Best of luck.
Finally, the view in front of me suddenly became clear and a city appeared before my eyes. Although it was night, I could see that the city was very large and there was even some green color.
Walking forward, stepping through a courtyard gate and lighting a lamp, the first thing you see is a semi-finished aircraft called a shuttle. It only has a rough skeleton, with many exposed parts and pipelines, and looks quite ugly and shabby. There are many parts piled around it, and Xiao Yi can see that Anakin, who is less than ten years old, is a very talented person in mechanics.
After closing the door, the little boy opened his big blue eyes, and it seemed that he could see the sea through his eyes.
"It looks like this is your first time in Mos Espa. Are you human as well? Humans are rare in the interstellar world."
As he walked over, Xiao Yi knew that this child was definitely very precocious, but looking at his pure blue eyes, he seemed to be just a child.
"Yes, I am a human, from the East, with yellow skin, black hair, and black eyes. You should be of Western descent, with blond hair and blue eyes..."
The little boy smiled excitedly and asked impatiently, "Have you been to the human home planet? What is the name of our home planet?"
"I haven't been there. If that ancient book is not wrong, the home planet of mankind is called Earth. It is blue, just like your eyes..."
"Earth, Earth..." He muttered several times, then bowed to Xiao Yi and said, "Thank you, Oriental!"
"Thank you too, you saved me tonight..."
"You don't have to thank me. Helping each other is what humans in the interstellar space should do!" the boy said proudly, his eyes full of joy.
Otokogawa felt his purity and joy, and laughed as well, saying, "But you are also amazing for doing something that should be done!"
It seemed that no one had ever praised him like this.
The boy looked very excited. He said to Xiao Yi, "You must be hungry! I'll take you to eat something. Unfortunately, I'm too poor... I didn't get anything tonight, so I can only treat you to the cheapest baked dune melon."
The boy was a little depressed and looked a little lonely.
Otoshigawa smiled, looked around the shuttle, and picked up a scrapped holographic imaging device.
It was not a big problem, just a damaged part that needed to be replaced. Fortunately, he collected a lot of scraps. After finding a few scrapped devices, he quickly assembled a holographic image. The screen lit up, and a blue and white interface appeared in the yard full of scraps. The boy watched the process intently and looked at Xiao Yi in surprise.
"Look! We have money for a big meal!"
Xiao Yi pointed at the holographic image and said to him with a smile.
"Really?" The boy looked at all this in surprise and said to Xiao Yi: "Are you a mechanic? That's amazing! I haven't mastered this kind of delicate instrument repair yet..."
Otoshi Ogawa smiled and neither admitted nor denied it.
But this hologram says it all.
He was about to take Xiao Yi out, but now he remembered that today was Dark Day. He immediately said with a bitter face: "It's not possible today. No store is open on Dark Day. There are still three hours left. When it's daybreak, I can sell it to my master Watto, and we will have money for a feast!"
"Owner?!"
Xiao Yi frowned. This was not a nice word. It was already the interstellar age, and they were still practicing slavery
"Jabba the Hutt lost my mother and me in a gambling accident to my master Watto..."
"oh!"
Xiao Yi suddenly realized that he seemed to have never used the "Qi-Looking Method" to check the fortune and destiny of this very different little boy. Perhaps he could save this slave child.
He is very different.
And for me, paying the money to redeem him and his mother might be just a piece of cake.
Under the light, Xiao Yi's eyes turned grayish white.
"ah!"
Xiao Yi covered his eyes in pain, tears streaming down his face.
"Mr. Dongfang, what's wrong with you?"
“I…I…I’m fine!”
Yi Xiaochuan took a breath of cold air. He saw a ball of scorching light and a ball of deep darkness, vast and boundless.
"May I have your name?"
"Anakin!"
"What's your last name?"
"Skywalker! My name is Anakin Skywalker!"
