After hearing Yang Qi's words, Mu Ying and Liu Lao suddenly showed a bitter smile on their faces. Although Yang Qi could not recognize the origin of the metal, Yang Qi's words were not useless.
"So, this piece of metal is just a token of trust?" Old Liu looked at Yang Qi and said.
Yang Qi was startled, then nodded slightly and continued, "There is nothing special about this piece of metal. Coupled with the writing on it, it is very likely to be a token. However, if it is a token, this token may be somewhat extraordinary."
The appearance of items in the warships of the fourth-level technological civilization that can only be manufactured by a sixth-level technological civilization or above is like an antique worth millions in an ordinary person's home. This antique is either obtained by luck or accidentally, or it is a family heirloom.
"Indeed." Old Liu nodded slightly, then chuckled, "Although this thing is extraordinary, it doesn't mean much to us. We are now fully committed to studying the technology of the fourth-level scientific civilization, and we have only learned the basics. Let alone study this thing to its full potential."
The Earth is now only between the first and second level of technological civilization. Even if there are the remains of warships from the fourth level of technological civilization, they can only learn the basics. Their own foundation is too poor, and it is impossible for them to research the metal to its full potential.
"Brother Liu, this depends on you scientists. We, who practice martial arts, know nothing about these things." Mu Ying chuckled at the side.
Hearing Mu Ying's words, Old Liu said with emotion, "Martial arts are no worse than technology. The strong can fly into the sky and hide in the ground without any problem."
As one of China's top scientists and one of the people responsible for the development of alien warships, Mr. Liu naturally knew a lot of secrets and knew how powerful practitioners were. If it were before, he would definitely have doubts, but the information he learned from the confidential information made him understand how powerful practitioners were.
This kind of individual strength is what living beings are more willing to pursue. The reason why a group is strong but lacks a sense of security is nothing more than the fact that human hearts are unpredictable. This has been verified countless times in Chinese history.
After the matter of the Ninth Bureau was resolved, Yang Qi had no intention of staying any longer and directly left the imperial capital and returned to Qingzhou.
…
In the starry sky, three huge warships relied on each other, speeding across the vast starry sky towards their destination.
In the leading battleship, a figure quickly came to the middle-aged man and said solemnly, "Captain, a life planet was found ahead. It seems to be our destination."
Life planet
When the middle-aged man heard this, his expression changed slightly. This star field is where the spiritual practice civilization is located. Now that a planet with life has been discovered, it is very likely that this is the world where spiritual practicers live.
"Send out the detector immediately to investigate." The middle-aged man said in a deep voice.
As the middle-aged man finished speaking, dozens of small detectors on the huge warship immediately flew towards the life planet they discovered.
After a moment, the man in charge of the investigation looked at the middle-aged man and said, "Captain, we found a radio signal. According to the intercepted signal and the investigation of the star system where the life planet is located, the other party should be a technological civilization."
"Radio signal? What is that?"
The middle-aged man was stunned and looked at the person who spoke in confusion.
"Radio wave signals belong to low-level technological civilizations and are generally only used by first-level technological civilizations." The man explained.
Things like radio wave signals have never appeared even in the historical records of the empire where the middle-aged man lives. They are so far away from them now that even he, the captain, doesn't know about them.
"Level 1 technological civilization?"
The middle-aged man's mouth twitched fiercely when he heard this. Even among the countless life planets ruled by their empire, the lowest level of technology was far beyond the first-level technological civilization. The first-level technological civilization was completely at the indigenous level!
The middle-aged man glanced at the other man before continuing, "Keep investigating. I will report this to the commander immediately."
Their target was actually just a first-level technological civilization. They were originally worried about encountering strong people from the spiritual cultivation civilization, but now it seems that their worries were in vain!
Just as the middle-aged man reported to the commander, the news was once again confirmed that the technology of the life planet was only between the first and second level technological civilizations, and it posed no threat to them at all.
The virtual image of the old man in fancy clothes looked at the middle-aged man and said calmly, "Since it is only at the level of first-level technological civilization, Locke, you can just take that thing back."
"Commander, that planet with life..." Locke said to the old man in fancy clothes.
Hearing this, the old man in fancy clothes said calmly, "Just take that thing back. As for the other matters, you can handle them on your own."
As a fleet commander, he didn't care about a life planet of a first-level technological civilization. However, each life planet often has some special features, which may represent good wealth for Locke and others. Just like the ancient Chinese soldiers in the war, they only need to hand in part of the spoils, and the rest can be kept. The spoils that the old man in Chinese clothes disliked naturally belonged to Locke and the other two.
"Yes, Your Excellency the Commander." Locke's face lit up with joy, and he immediately ended the communication with Simon and Fields, preparing to go to the life planet to retrieve what they were looking for and collect their own spoils!
Watching Locke and the other two leaving, the other virtual figures in the conference room immediately showed envy. If they had known the mission was so simple, they should have volunteered to do it. But now it was a good opportunity for Locke and the other two.
…
Earth's outer space, space station.
A blonde beauty looked at the black-haired man next to her and asked, "Lee, is my posture correct?"
The blonde beauty was maintaining a horse-riding posture at this time. Although it was a bit strange, it was indeed the horse stance that all Chinese people were familiar with, and it was also a basic movement for people who practiced martial arts.
The black-haired man looked at the blonde beauty doing horse stance and said with a smile, "Liz, I've said it before, horse stance is useless in space."
There is no gravity in space. Without gravity, horse stance cannot serve as an exercise at all. Although there are pressurized cabins, they are equipment to ensure their body functions and cannot be used for martial arts practice.
"I'm just learning. I'll practice Chinese Kung Fu seriously when I get back to Earth." The blonde beauty chuckled and continued, "Li, I can do horse stance. Can I survive in space without any equipment like the three humans who flew into space before? Can I smash the stars with one punch?"
Poof!
The black-haired man almost spat out a mouthful of blood when he heard this. Can I say that I have been practicing horse stance since elementary school? And I can't even touch the backboard! (To be continued)
