Chapter 51 The Chosen One
"She's up there."
the soldier replied.
After entering from this door, there is a wide area. The entire first floor is filled with piles of colorful stones, stacked together in a triangular shape. Each pile is more than two meters high, like a volcano. At the same time, each pile of stones is A glowing cube is suspended on top of the block.
These blocks are approximately transparent, like light bulbs. They are one foot high from the top of the stone below. Each block is half a foot long and wide. They are all blue and constantly flashing.
There is a vertical light pillar in the middle of the first floor, which is also blue, like a light curtain, translucent, and similar to the shuttle door of the mine.
Wadi quickly entered the blue light curtain in the middle. The next moment, Wadi's figure had appeared on the second floor. In the middle of the second floor were three triangular boulders, each of which was more than two meters high. As soon as Wadi appeared, he Standing in the middle of three boulders.
He glanced around and walked directly to somewhere.
There are no small stones on the first floor in this second floor, but there are many luminous objects floating in the air. Each of these luminous objects is only the size of an egg and is colorful, but it is not a sphere, but in the shape of sheets, like leaves. But the position of each luminous body is fixed in the sky, as if it has some special meaning.
At this time, an alien with an oval head was observing carefully in front of a certain luminous object. She looked exactly the same as the soldiers outside. The difference was that her head was blue and her body was slightly larger than the soldiers outside. .
"Soldier Captain Wadi, shouldn't you be developing a new mine? Why do you come to me when you have time?"
Wilma's hands were carefully operating in the blue light in front of her, as if she was making something.
Wadi looked at the surrounding light bodies and said while walking casually: "Today I saw a 'prison ship' flying back to your base..."
Before Wadi could continue, Wilma said angrily: "Wadi, your mission is the miners, not my prison. You have no right to interfere in my affairs!"
"No, I do!"
Wadi said equally angrily.
Wilma stopped what she was doing and stared at Wadi closely.
Vardy continued: "Listen Wilma, that prison ship was supposed to return a hundred [stars] ago, but it didn't. It suddenly returned today. This is something I must pay attention to, and it's still inexplicable to me. There is one more prisoner with no name and no origin. I don’t want this kind of miner with unknown origin.”
"Tell me clearly, Wilma, I don't want to make things worse." Vardy continued.
Wilma's face was extremely ugly, her eyes continued to stare at the other person, and after a moment of hesitation, she said: "Soldier Captain Wadi, it won't do you any good if you know this."
"Then what if Master Rom knows about this?"
Vardy continued.
Wilma narrowed her eyes slightly and said in a cold tone: "Originally, I wanted to handle this matter secretly, but it seems..."
Wilma turned around and came to one of the triangular boulders. There seemed to be nothing on the smooth boulder. Wilma slowly raised her hand and casually traced the surface with one finger.
There was a sudden flash on the surface of the boulder, and a broken spaceship appeared. This spaceship was exactly the one Li Ming found on the earth. At this time, several fourth-order soldiers were maintaining and repairing the spacecraft.
"The bottom of the spacecraft is the transport cockpit, and the top is the prison module. According to the plan that day, the prison ship should unload the prison module after arriving at Jupiter, and then the cockpit will return here. However, the spacecraft malfunctioned and did not arrive at the designated location. location, and...Joseph is dead!"
Wilma said while pointing to the pattern on the boulder.
Wadi's eyes were also watching the scene carefully. After hearing about Joseph's death, his face suddenly changed, revealing a look of fear, and then he said tremblingly: "Joseph... is dead? Then... then this Why did the spaceship suddenly come back here?"
Wilma slid her hand again to close the pattern and said: "It was your new prisoner who flew it back here, but that is not important. What is important is that Joseph is dead. He is important." Prisoner, our prison was warned when we took him in. If the [Jeremists] knew that Joseph died because of the malfunction of our spacecraft... we would all be doomed!"
"So the prisoner will be placed with you temporarily, and I will send him away in a few days." Wilma continued.
Wadi's face became solemn and he said: "But the time limit for imprisoning Joseph is coming soon, and the Mysterians will come to ask for him! And the Mysterians will definitely investigate!"
Wilma looked straight at Wadi and said: "Yes, the Mysterians will definitely investigate. It is a supported spiritual civilization. They can easily know everything they want to know. Once they know The truth is, not to mention you and me, even the captain of the guard Rom will suffer, so the best way is to let the prisoner disappear, so it doesn’t matter even if they know that Joseph is dead.”
"Because as long as the prisoner disappears, we will have the final say on Joseph's death. For example... the prisoner Joseph could not withstand the harsh environment of Jupiter and died unexpectedly, so the Mysterians will not do anything to us." Wilma continued.
Wadi listened carefully and nodded slowly, but there was still a worried look in his eyes and said, "Shouldn't this matter be told to Lord Roma?"
Vilma glanced at the other party and said, "Wadi, the fewer people who know about this, the better. I wanted to execute that guy as soon as he showed up, but in a few days, the Shixing people will send a prisoner to our prison. I will arrange to send that guy and the prisoner to Jupiter together. This is much safer than killing him directly."
"So you must pay attention to that kid in the near future and keep a close eye on him. It's best not to cause any trouble." Wilma continued.
After hearing this, Wadi became a little anxious. His blurred eyes were full of worries. He walked back and forth and looked at Wilma from time to time, saying, "I still think that this matter should be notified to Lord Rom."
As soon as she finished speaking, Wilma suddenly grabbed the armor on Wadi's chest with one hand and said fiercely, "Wadi, are you going to tell Rom about your stealing and selling ore?!"
"You...how did you know?!"
Wadi looked at Wilma with horror, and his trembling voice was full of disbelief.
Wilma released the other's armor with one hand and continued, "Will I tell you about Joseph easily without holding some evidence against you? Or even arrange for the prisoner to be with you? Wadi... don't make things complicated, everything is under my control."
Wadi spread his hands helplessly, staring at Wilma with his eyes, knowing very well that this woman was not easy to deal with. After calming down his nervousness, he said, "Okay, I will keep an eye on that kid."
Wilma nodded with satisfaction, a smile on her face, and re-arranged the armor on Wadi's chest with both hands, and said, "Relax, Wadi, this is just a small incident, we can handle it, there is no need to alarm Rom."
Wadi did not move, but the look he gave Wilma was a little fearful and hateful, but helpless.
At the same time, Li Ming was still digging in the mine, and the star ores were collected into metal bags. Although these star ores contained a lot of energy, they could not be used directly, and professional equipment was needed to extract the energy from the ore.
As for refining, Li Ming naturally does not need any equipment. As long as the ore is put into his star furnace, it will automatically become an energy body. However, the ore dug at present can only be collected in full and transported outside after accumulating a certain amount.
Go through the blue doorway to the mine hall, and then go through the passage to the mine entrance. There is a low-altitude cargo aircraft parked at the entrance of the mine. All the excavated star ores must be placed in the cargo hold of the aircraft.
There is no concept of time like on Earth here. Li Ming is still too unfamiliar with alien civilizations and is not very clear about many places. However, between the mine and the cave entrance, Li Ming has already sensed something, that is, the two soldiers at the entrance of the mine.
The two soldiers have been thinking about the ore in their brains. It seems that some of the ore needs to be transported to other places. Li Ming has been in and out of the mine twice. Although he has stayed outside as much as possible, he still cannot sense their too detailed thoughts.
When Li Ming walked out of the cave for the third time with a full metal bag of ore, there were already a few more people outside. In addition to the two soldiers, there was Wadi and a strange guy behind Wadi.
Standing behind Wadi was an alien who was taller than Wadi. He looked the same as Wadi, but was a sixth-level civilization. He was the ruler of the entire Ulysses Mine, Rom.
"You, stop, come here."
Rom, who was slightly bigger, took a fancy to Li Ming at first sight and waved his hand.
Li Ming paused for a moment, put the ore into the warehouse and walked over. At this time, Li Ming looked around and found that in addition to Rom and Wadi, there was another miner like Li Ming next to him and was guarded by two soldiers.
Seeing Li Ming being called over, Wadi suddenly became a little nervous and said quickly: "Lord Rom, I don't think this guy is suitable. Let's... change him."
"Huh?!" Rom glanced at Wadi beside him and said disdainfully: "What's wrong with this? Aren't they all the same? Take it away!"
Rom turned around and walked towards the aircraft.
The aircraft in front of him was a manned low-altitude aircraft, slightly smaller than a cargo aircraft, six meters long, three meters wide, and half a foot above the ground. Inside, there were rows of seats neatly arranged. Rom sat in the front seat as soon as he approached.
Wadi looked at Li Ming in front of him with a sad face and some worry, but he still followed Rom into the aircraft helplessly.
Li Ming and the miner were also escorted in by two soldiers.
At this time, Li Ming, relying on his powerful mental power, constantly sensed the thoughts of all the aliens on the aircraft, and pieces of information kept entering his brain.
After sensing the information in Wadi's mind, Li Ming's face changed slightly, and he unexpectedly discovered something.
