Raymond: "Hey, should you get up and do something?"
Opal: "It's all garbage you made yourself, clean it up yourself."
Raymond was frizzy and worked hard to clean the spaceship, while Opal was lying leisurely on the sofa reading E7's newspaper, and said casually: "Can't you deal with an army of a thousand people? Honeymoon, eh?"
Raymond: "… "
Raymond spent a full six hours cleaning up the spaceship, stuffing the garbage into the calciner and burning, sweating profusely, lying on the sofa with bare shoulders and saying, "Go sail."
Opal: "E7 - set the route, female Luoxing."
The Times-VI took off, and Raymond said, "I want to buy a home cleaning robot."
Opal rolled over and straddled Raymond's waist and said, "You are a home robot."
Raymond: "I'm your spouse! Your head! Who was repeating that I was a human like you!"
Opal smiled and untied his belt, and Raymond sat up and hugged him, buried his face on his shoulder, and said, "I have no strength, I don't want to do it."
Opal said, "Try the one the wrench said?"
Raymond began to tug at Opal's clothes, rolled over and pressed him on the sofa. The two tried several times. Without using the fantasy paradise, Raymond was either inserted too deep or too shallow, and he couldn't grasp the strength of the top. Well, the opal hurts, and there is no pleasure at all. In the end, I have to use it to fantasize about heaven and continue to play.
There is a direct boat from Lie Xing to Nuluo Xing, and it only takes thirty-six hours to and from the Xingkong Gate, which is very fast. During the period, besides having sex, Opal and Raymond laughed at each other.
Thirty-six hours later, Times-VI arrived at the outer edge of Nuo Luoxing, with Opal resting on Raymond's lap, and Raymond was looking through the mercenary diary.
"Please submit your entry application and 16-digit password." The other party sent a communication.
"What's the communication password?" Opal got up and said, "And this thing? We're here for our honeymoon."
Raymond said: "Client: Chairman Ellie of the 'Plant Research Promotion Association', the local identification number is X37007351A."
"Girl Luoxing is in a special period and does not accept any visitors." The electronic voice in the space station prompted: "Reiterate, your identity is not allowed to enter the girl Luoxing, and you are refused entry."
Opal threatened: "Hey, man, are you a robot or a human? Call a human to talk, or our king will beat you to a discus..."
"Warning, warning, force expulsion in three seconds, one."
When it was too late, it was too soon. Hundreds of small robots flew out of the space station, and Raymond roared: "Get out of the way! What's going on!"
Opal roared: "This robot must have a broken CPU! What is 'one'! Shouldn't the countdown be three?!"
The artillery in Era-VI vibrated violently, the defensive cover fell rapidly, and there were more and more attack fighters.
"What to do!" Opal said: "Too much!"
Raymond: "Enter the atmosphere! Find cover!"
Opal turned the spaceship, dragged the flames into the atmosphere, and chased nearly a hundred defensive fighters. Raymond rushed to the control position of the fort, set up the scope and turned the muzzle, and an electromagnetic light penetrated the group of aircraft chasing the spaceship. .
The battle robots were instantly divided into two rows to flank up. The Times-VI thruster exploded with a loud bang, the hull deviates, and Opal said, "The protective cover is gone!"
Raymond looked back and shouted, "Rush into the forest!"
Opal: "It's too tight! The turret can't be turned! Damn it, Raymond! Look below!"
Spectacular forest fires ignited on the female star, six space stations outside the atmosphere are taking turns firing guns, and tens of millions of hectares of land have turned into a sea of fire.
Mars churned in the air, and a giant mother tree glowed green in the center of the planet.
"I don't have time to watch it!" Raymond roared, "No matter what, let's take pictures later!"
Opal did not forget to say: "I'm here to travel for my honeymoon! Can't you solve everything?!"
The raindrop-like light bombs covered the entire spaceship like a long river. The Era-VI caught fire, the console alarmed one after another, and the ground was getting closer and closer, Raymond said: "Smooth landing! Open the hatch! Bring your weapon with you!"
Opal said: "What are you going to do! If you fall, you will die!"
Raymond: "Listen to me!"
Opal opened the hatch, the fighter jets gathered again, and the light projectiles shot into the cabin, which swept them out in a frenzy. Raymond set up a shock gun and fired a cannon outside the cabin, Opal said: "E7! Defend the spaceship! "
Raymond fired four bursts one after another, fastened the wire hook beside the hatch door to his belt, ran out of the spaceship in a few steps, jumped on top of the fighter jet that was rushing in front, and swung the shock gun in a circle.
The winch spun rapidly, the wire rope became less and less, and the explosions sounded one after another outside, and Opal was dumbfounded.
Raymond shot several times in mid-air, and Time-VI rushed into the Nuoluoxing Forest. Leaves, branches and fruits flew in and rushed in. It was darkness outside the porthole. Falling with Opal, the spaceship fell into darkness, the left engine exploded and black smoke came out, and one fell into the forest.
The fighter jets only chased over the forest and left.
In the dark cabin, E7 cast a light screen to analyze the surrounding environment. Raymond lay in Opal's arms and sighed.
"Looks like you're right." Raymond said, "Something must have happened to Lady Luoxing."
Opal pushed Raymond away, sat in front of the console, checked the damage report of the spacecraft, and said, "The main energy pool blew up and the engine was destroyed. Our emergency landing site is the swamp area of the female star... oh no."
The spaceship slowly sank, and Raymond said, "E7!"
"It's useless!" Opal said: "Get out of here!"
Opal put his weapon on his back, picked up his backpack, and Raymond grabbed the E7. The two of them rushed out of the back of the spacecraft and slowly sank in the mud. The spacecraft was nearly half-submerged in the mud. Every time he pulled out his foot, he sank deeper, and when he rushed out of the spaceship twenty meters away, Opal had already sunk to his waist.
"It's asphalt!" Raymond said, "Don't move! Lay the sword across!"
"Don't be nervous!" Opal said hurriedly: "I have a way!"
Raymond: "Don't move! It will get deeper and deeper!"
The opal had been submerged in the mud to his chest. He reached out his hands, took a deep breath, and released the power of faith. The mud under his feet began to surge, and the asphalt lake formed rolling waves, slowly pushing them towards the shore.
The two of them were covered in muddy dark green mud. Raymond tried to take a step and went ashore.
Opal breathed a sigh of relief, and when he looked back at the middle of the Asphalt Lake, the Times-VI only sank to a top sign.
Three seconds later, not even the sign was gone.
"Can you fix it with your mind?" Raymond asked.
"Theoretically yes," Opal said.
Raymond: "Try it."
Opal: "But I'm not confident right now..."
Raymond: "… "
"How about trying to lift off the E7 remote control spacecraft?" Opal said: "E7."
E7 was stuck to the shore by the asphalt, and Opal lifted it up. E7 spun the crawler rapidly and sprayed out a lot of mud, which smeared his face. Raymond laughed, laughing all over the place, and Opal wiped his face in embarrassment. , the attempt failed, and had to follow the forest to start exploring the surrounding environment.
"This is really an unforgettable honeymoon trip." Opal said angrily.
Raymond looked up at the surrounding scenery and said with a smile, "Don't you think the environment is pretty good?"
The noon sun casts down from the top of the Nuluo Forest. The dark environment is full of damp smells, and the scorch of the fire wafts in the distance. Opal and Raymond find a path through the forest. The ground is covered with decadent fallen leaves. The aerial roots of the female radish tree spun and twisted around them as if they were alive.
"Be careful," Opal said. "Is this the radish tree? What are they trying to do."
Opal stared at the three threatening air roots that stretched out in front of him, as if it wanted to cut Opal's throat, but was afraid of what he had.
The aerial roots of trees were everywhere, like moving snakes hanging from the tops of their branches.
"The female dill tree will attack people." Raymond was always vigilant: "But they didn't reject us. You have to find a way to get out of here as soon as possible. What tools are you carrying in your bag?"
"Let's see." Opal found an open space and sat down. There are dozens of trees around here, and their air roots stretched out towards the center together to form a circle, as if the tree spirits were spying on two people with bad intentions. A traveler from a foreign land.
Opal: "I'm starting to suspect the legend of a resort here. The trees feel so unfriendly."
Raymond: "We just forced the landing in the wrong direction... As far as I know, Nuluo Star is divided into three layers, and we are now at the bottom of the entire planet. Maybe other places are still very friendly."
Opal opened the asphalt-stained backpack, which contained a photon knife, some food, and a wrapped gift box.
Raymond stared blankly at the contents of his backpack.
Raymond: "Let me see, what is this?"
Opal: "Gift to Mushu... We haven't seen each other for a long time..."
Raymond: "You gave him fantasy heaven?"
Opal: "What's the matter? I think I like it very much. What's wrong with giving it to him... Don't take it apart! I promise it's for a single person!"
"What is this?" Raymond took out a palm-sized brown fruit from his backpack.
Opal remembered, he held the fruit with three fingers, stood up slowly, and turned it towards the air roots, and the air roots avoided them.
"The fruit of the female dill tree." Opal murmured: "It was given to me by Mushu before, no wonder they didn't attack us."
Raymond looked up at the tree and said, "Not like their fruit."
Opal said: "This is the mother of the female Luo, the largest tree in the middle."
The air roots dissipated and returned to their respective trees quietly. Opal held the fruit and held hands with Raymond, looking for a way to leave the forest. There was an explosion in the distance, and the ground kept shaking. Raymond motioned for Opal to follow him, took out the weapon rack, and ran quickly to the depths of the forest.
A group of locals were holding weapons against the fighter jets over the forest, shouting as they ran, and incendiary bombs exploded.
Opal yelled, "Don't fire!"
Raymond caught up from behind, pressed Opal, and said loudly, "Be careful!"
The two rolled on the ground, and the burning tree was pressed down. Opal crossed the sword to block the light bullets of the combat robot that fell from the ceiling. Raymond put on the shock gun and ran straight up along the tree trunk, holding his breath. The root swayed an arc, shot four consecutive bursts, and shot a beam of light from the muzzle of the gun, penetrating the fighter jets chasing the locals.
Opal rescued people from the fire, and rolled on the ground to extinguish the flames. Four, five, 80% of the fighter jets flying over the forest were shot down by Raymond, and the rest were all turned around and recalled.
"Are you alive? Hey! Are you okay?" Opal yelled at a burnt man.
Raymond took his weapon and returned, groaning all over the floor.
"Needs healing," Raymond said. "Find someone sober."
Opal checked in turn and saw that they were all wearing green camouflage uniforms, local soldiers? He helped a lesser wounded soldier and asked, "What happened here?"
"You... Who are you?" The wounded soldier said with difficulty, "Where did you come from?"
"We are mercenaries, and Miss Ellie is the employer." Raymond frowned and said, "Girl Luo Xing is fighting?"
The wounded soldier screamed in pain. Opal took off his coat and pressed his burnt and cracked skin. The wounded soldier said, "Ai Li... please, please come... helper, I know... there is a ground patrol boat behind... , five hundred meters away from here, on the swamp due west... use... this, come over."
The wounded soldier handed over a remote control key, and Raymond took it, clicked on the earrings of Opal, and said, "I'm going to drive, you are here to protect them and keep in touch at any time."
"Take the E7 with you." Opal said.
Raymond left with E7, Opal stepped forward to check the injuries one by one, turned over their backpacks, and found a water bottle to feed them some water.
"Here... I'll drink some too, thanks... buddy." A wounded soldier moved over with difficulty, bleeding from his thigh.
After the water was fed, the groans of the wounded soldiers all over the ground became much quieter. Opal's fingerless gloves were covered with blood from their burns. He flipped through the electronic ID of one of the wounded soldiers and checked the projected Personal information on the light screen.
The display is as follows:
Name: Yake
Affiliation: The 47th Squad of the Third Unit of the Civil Peacekeeping Army on the Ground of Nuluo, the captain of the patrol unit.
Birthplace: Antakry, Prairie City.
Genetic code: (password hidden stripes)
Opal said, "Are you militiamen?"
After drinking the drink in the kettle, Yake miraculously felt much better. He nodded and said, "Yes, the female Luo Xing is in a civil war. Thank goodness, you finally came. Did the mercenary king Azeroth ask you to come?"
Opal said: "No, this is an open mission. Let's talk about what happened first. We received a mission to arrest poachers. Why has it changed?"
"Fuck the poachers!" said one of the militiamen angrily. "That's the Imperial Army! The Empire and the Republic have used this as a battlefield!"
Opal was inexplicable and said: "One person said. Just one person, tell me in detail what happened."
Yake interrupted and began to talk about a series of problems that have occurred in the four cosmic months of the female Luoxing. The female Luoxing has been an independent planet recognized by the interstellar community since 10,000 years ago. With the symbolic meaning of the female Luo's mother, the empire and the republic are not the same. Dare to interfere. In the dark age 7,000 years ago, Nuo Luoxing was one of the few sanctuaries that was not destroyed by the war. The area covered by technology was very small, and almost all residents were adhering to the natural and pure attitude to life. .
The special attribute of the female dill tree will attack foreign tourists, which also makes the female dill not prosperous in the tourism industry. But just three years ago, there was a local conflict in the female Luo Xing, known as the Mayflower bloodshed...
Opal almost cried.
"What do I fear most about the November Uprising, the Iris Revolution and other historical events." Opal was frightened by the history of Lie Xing, and said helplessly: "Can you not mention history?"
Raymond came back and assisted Opal to carry the wounded soldiers onto the patrol boat. Some of the wounded soldiers had been able to resume walking on their own, but the whole body was still suffering from terrible burns.
"So fast?" Raymond asked in amazement.
"The milk of the mother of the female Luo." Opal still remembered the method that the doctor named He Sai provided when he treated Raymond. He casually said: "It can increase the activity of cells, continue to say."
Yake was lying on the patrol boat, Raymond drove the airship along the map indicators, and Opal stepped on the window to listen to Yake's introduction to the local situation.
The bloodshed of the Mayflower was caused by the Galactic Republic proposing a 120-year sapling purchase right to Nuo Xing, and because the daughter plants that left Nuo’s mother could not survive, this purchase right was not to buy the sapling, but to buy the sapling on the planet. Planted in the form of a concession.
The Republic paid Nuluoxing a large sum of money, and at the same time promised to set up a processing factory to assist Nuluoxing people to build their own processing lines. As a result, the local government agency Nuluo Free United Organization split into two factions, and the organization's parliament passed a proposal to prepare to cooperate with the Empire - most of these new immigrants who came to Nuluo Star after the Dark Ages to reclaim.
The local members left the parliament angrily and returned to the forest, while the new immigrants occupied the outer areas of the forest. The prosperity of the Republic's processing plants has led to a proportional increase in the unemployment rate of the natives...
Opal heard black lines all over his head, and he didn't get to the point after talking for a long time.
"Say poachers." Raymond said.
Yake said: "The workers of the Republic were taken hostage by the poachers. Female Luo Xing failed to rescue them. Four hundred workers and the workshop director... were all killed. This is the Mayflower bloodshed."
Opal vaguely remembered that he had seen such a thing on Lie Xing's interstellar news, and he asked: "So the Republic began to interfere?"
Yake said: "At that time, there were still tourists from the Empire who died. The ambassador of the Republic and the ambassador of the Empire came forward to negotiate. The result was that the Republic evacuated the citizens, and the Empire intervened to take over all the fortifications on the periphery of the planet, including satellite light cannons and combat aircraft."
"The Plant Research Promotion Association has only a few thousand people. They protect the 120,000 local residents of Nuluo and take refuge under the canopy of Nulu's mother. The empire instructed a man named Kahn to set up an organization called the 'New Development Engineering Department'. , and those who met him said he was the head of the poachers."
"The people in the engineering department are all poachers. The empire controls all areas except the sea of trees, including the three rifts, deserts, and grasslands. New immigrants have moved there, and the natives have stayed under the mother tree."
Raymond said: "What will the plant research promotion have against capital?"
Jake replied: "We have the mother of the female Luo."
Opal: "That's just a tree."
Raymond thought for a while and said, "The mother of female Luo is not just a tree, is there any more?"
Yake agreed: "No, Nuluo's mother has her wisdom, she is one with this planet, the entire Nuluo star is her incarnation, and what we eat and drink is all her flesh and blood."
Raymond nodded slowly, and Yake said again: "Before humans entered, all life on the Nuo star was her incarnation. She produced photosynthesis to provide the planet's oxygen, and her branches, leaves and fruits gave birth to the Nuo tree. , animals eat her body and blood, we eat animals, green stri animals, sparkling fish and cold-water shrimps, the nectar of dahlias produced by leaf birds, fungi, these are all food.”
Raymond glanced at Opal, and the two looked at each other for a moment.
Raymond: "What are you thinking? Any suggestion?"
Opal: "I'm hungry."
Raymond: "… "
The patrol car gradually rose, jumped over the dense woods, and rushed out of the treetops from the upper and lower passages. The treetops were like a dense green net.
This is the second floor of Nuluo's ground. The branches and leaves of towering ancient trees form a flat ground. In the distance is a village with a sentry post. Raymond jumped out of the car and asked Opal, "What about now?"
Opal said blankly, "Go and have a look and find something to eat."
A lot of people ran out of the village, and Yake said: "The mercenaries are here! Azeroth has sent people to help us!"
Immediately, some people cheered excitedly, and some people burst into tears. They ran to the patrol car and put the injured on a stretcher. The villagers spread the word, and hundreds of people rushed out to watch them.
"Who is the mercenary?" A young man said: "Introduce yourself, I am the person in charge of Vault 74, my name is Alan, how many of you are here?"
Opal assisted the villagers to take the injured out of the car and sent them to the village for treatment. Raymond said, "My partner and I, our spaceship is stuck in the swamp, can we find something to eat?"
"Smoke and Sword Mercenary Group, B-rank, great!" the young man said: "Where are your companions? How many meals do you prepare?"
Raymond said: "Two servings of food and water are enough, just me and him."
Everyone was silent. After nearly a minute of dead silence, Opal asked blankly, "What's wrong?"
Raymond frowned and said, "Is there a problem?"
"There are only two of you?" the young man said in disbelief.
Opal took off his fingerless gloves and came over: "Yes, there are only two people, is there any problem?"
The villagers all showed disappointment, and they scattered for a while. The person in charge turned dark and said, "Are you really joking?"
Raymond said sternly: "Yes, two people, take us to see the employer first, your Chairman Ellie, I will negotiate with her."
The person in charge said coldly: "I will send you to the central living area now."
Opal suddenly frowned and said, "At least give me something to eat! Don't you guys lack food?"
The person in charge said impatiently: "There will be someone in the central district to entertain you! What's the hurry! I think I'm here on vacation!"
Opal was furious, got on the tattered car, and set off with the car.
There are many human habitats along the way, and there are many blue-blue animals galloping on the sea of trees. The sky is dark, and groups of Pegasus are soaring in the shade. Their skin and body are almost transparent, light blue. Vessel chords are faintly visible, and the membranes outside the viscera shimmer with fluorescence.
"It's getting dark all of a sudden?" Opal asked.
The person in charge snorted.
Raymond explained to Opal in a low voice: "Now we have entered the shade of the mother of Nuo Luo."
The branches and leaves of the mother of female dill are extremely lush. It has survived on this planet for nearly 100 million years. All female dill trees are her descendants. Its crown covers nearly one-third of the planet. Under the shade of the prosperous trees, This place will be eternal night. In the dark night, there are countless beams of light cast into the shaded area, like the holy light of heaven on the other side of the cloud falling diagonally.
The huge pillars that were hugged by ten people stood in the sky and held up the whole night. Opal was still wondering how these pillars were built. Raymond explained: "They are the air roots of the mother of the female Luo."
Tens of thousands of rattans climbed up along the aerial roots, and the flowers on the rattans bloomed to illuminate the night. As the hovering car gradually deepened, the fluorescence lighted up after leaving the sunlight area.
The car passed numerous checkpoints, and finally opened the door in a village in the central district. The female Luoxing people built the central city under the protection of the mother tree. The atmosphere here is tense, and there is a post every ten steps.
"Ahead is the temporary command center." The guard said: "No one who has nothing to do is allowed to enter."
The person in charge said: "It's the messenger sent by King Azeroth."
The guard said: "The mercenary is here?"
"The mercenaries are here!" The guards were excited, the news spread, and another person ran to the building in the distance to report. After a while, a dozen people rushed out at a running speed.
Raymond showed the mercenary diary and asked, "Which one is Miss Ellie?"
Everyone was silent, and the woman in the lead said, "Come in and talk about it."
It seems that these people are the managers of the central area. People are talking about it. The women who talked with them began to introduce them one by one.
"Yes." The woman said, "Hello, my name is Wendy."
Raymond frowned in dissatisfaction. This task is really troublesome. After going around for a long time, he hasn't met his employer, and instead he has been involved in a clueless civil war.
"Where's the employer?"
"My employer is my sister." Wendy said, "Do you have any other companions? What did King Azeroth say?"
Opal said: "Nothing was said, we just came to ask you to cancel the commission."
Raymond motioned for him to stay calm and said, "Miss, where is your sister now? According to the mercenary code, we are not allowed to be involved in any political disputes between galaxies..."
Wendy took them into an extremely spacious wooden building hall with rows of ring seats, she breathed a sigh of relief, cut off Raymond's words, and said, "I believe everything can be reasonably resolved, let us first. Take the time to get to know each other. Get some food for our guests."
Someone brought something, on top of which was a steak made of green strife, served with radish flesh that was fried until tender, and a few toasted fruit-like bread for dinner.
"The meeting is temporarily cancelled," she said to the others.
Opal hadn't eaten for eighteen hours in a row, and was about to starve to death. He found a random seat and sat down to eat.
Raymond said to Wendy: "Azeroth has not given us any advice, everything is dispatched through the mercenary union headquarters, this is just a very common task, and the commission we received does not match the actual content..."
Wendy interrupted hastily, "No, it's not like that."
Raymond said: "Miss, please don't interrupt, I will leave you enough time for you to convince me."
Although Wendy said the meeting was over, no one in the hall left. They each found a place to sit or stand, listening to Raymond's statement.
"First of all: the commission we received is to arrest poachers." Raymond said after thinking for a while: "But according to the understanding along the way, the problem here is far more than the poachers. The actual content of the commission and the mercenaries There are too many discrepancies in the information given by the trade union.”
"Second: the client is missing." Raymond glanced at the venue and said politely, "If I guessed correctly, she should have disappeared or died?"
No one answered Raymond, Raymond closed the mercenary diary, and said again: "Again: Female Luoxing's question involves interstellar political disputes, and both the Empire and the Republic are involved in this matter, and according to Article 22 of the Code, perform the task. During the process, it is not allowed to get involved in any civil war, national war or ethnic war.”
Wendy said, "But as far as I know, most of your mercenaries don't have to abide by this rule when they go out on a mission..."
Raymond said: "Let me finish."
"Finally." Raymond said, "We were short-staffed. The purpose of the beginning was to visit Nuluo Star. As you can see, the spaceship fell into the swamp. I was the only one in the entire mercenary group. My partner was on their honeymoon. He won't help..."
Opal: "Hey! Who said that! Can't I say it?"
Raymond smiled and said, "Then there are only two of us."
Opal is full, satisfied and full of food. When people are full, they want to sleep, so they stand up, stretch, sneeze, and lie down on the seat of the presidency in the center, closing their eyes and resting.
Everyone: "… "
Raymond: "Inconsistent entrustment, disappearance of employer, political disputes, lack of manpower. To sum up, I have the right to apply for revocation of this entrustment and submit it to the headquarters of the Fierce Star Trade Union for arbitration. According to the contract, you should pay all our losses this time. Compensation, and 20% liquidated damages."
Raymond closed the mercenary diary and said, "I'm done, what do you want to say?"
