Chapter 40 Shield



Chi Yao made up his mind, and the rest of the people followed suit and acted quickly.

First, the teachers and computer of the Tree Nest. Since Chi Yao had decided to change his route to the North, they should naturally return to the Tree Nest afterwards.

But for the sake of safety, the administrators and teachers were not allowed to leave that day.

First, it was unknown whether there would be any new situations on the Time Star. As the Tree Nest employee who knew the Blue Star people best in the Empire, it would be good to stay just in case.

Second, geographically, the North is almost on the back of the Imperial Capital. It has to go around most of the planet's surface. The speed of the spaceship is too slow. After entering the North, it does not have a sufficient safety level as a means of transportation. It will take a day or two to mobilize battleships from the Imperial Capital's royal guards.

Since Chi Yao and Shi Xing and his party could not leave within a day or two, the mothership from the Tree Nest did not need to rush back.

After that, since the battleship was deployed and it was a long-distance trip, the accompanying personnel must also follow the configuration of the battleship and make corresponding adjustments and additions to ensure Chi Yao's trip is safe.

Everyone around him was busy preparing for this trip.

Xu Jin arranged the room layout on the battleship and the planning of living service personnel.

Fu Qing also instructed the technical personnel to work overtime to inspect and check several motherships in service belonging to the Royal Guard. Whichever ship passed the full set of tests first would be the one they would use for this trip.

There were also additional officers and soldiers accompanying the convoy. Fu Qing, Tan Jue and Xiang Fei all participated in the relevant negotiations...

Another aide Yan Changyue completely took over Xu Jin's responsibility. He was fully responsible for Shi Xing for the next two days.

Chi Yao was always very busy, and handling official business took up most of his time every day. Shi Xing still went to his study every day to clock in and rest. His busyness gave Shi Xing a sense of stability, and he became the only person and thing in Shi Xing's life that seemed unchanged.

Two more days passed, and except for the daily upgrade of the crystal grade, after the talent was fully awakened, Shi Xing was back to normal.

All the values ​​of the body were completely stable in a healthy range. The doctor reported the specific parameters the first two times, and subsequently only reported the four words "everything is normal".

The spiritual sea can also be mobilized, the strength of spiritual power has increased, and at the same time, the application of the first talent has become more handy.

After repeatedly confirming that there is nothing wrong with Shi Xing's body, Chi Yao still peeked into Shi Xing's spiritual sea.

And sensed the outer area described by Shi Xing.

Chi Yao tried to extend his spiritual power deeper, and after the honeycomb-shaped hollow structure under the shallow sand was sensed, the spiritual power would disappear instantly at a certain depth.

Yes, disappear.

Not even a rebound.

Like some kind of self-preservation mechanism, after Chi Yao's perception of spiritual power went too deep, at a certain moment, he would feel as if he had entered a black box, unable to feel anything, and completely blocked, including the external spiritual power, which also disappeared strangely, as if he had never mobilized it.

After trying several times, it was the same all the time. Shi Xing couldn't explain why. When he asked him if he felt any discomfort for the last time, Shi Xing's answer was very intriguing.

Shi Xing said uncertainly, "It seems that I tasted the taste of absorbing His Highness's spiritual power, very clear and sweet?"

"Is it... absorbed by me?"

He was referring to the part of Chi Yao's perceived spiritual power that disappeared.

Chi Yao skipped the taste of spiritual power that only Blue Star people could know, and asked him, "Do you feel satisfied after absorbing it?"

Shi Xing shook his head again.

The answer was affirmative and firm - absolutely not.

After everyone discussed, Major General Xiang Fei, whose spiritual power level was 3s, was replaced to conduct the spy.

The result was even more moving.

Xiang Fei didn't even peek into Shi Xing's spiritual sea. As soon as the spiritual power that was forcibly peeping swept over Shi Xing, he said that he felt a layer of thick fog. He wanted to cross the thick fog... Sorry, he couldn't cross it.

In the thick fog, Xiang Fei's perceptive spiritual power would be cut off at any moment, and then enter a shielding state.

When asked if Shi Xing felt uncomfortable, Shi Xing's reply was very depressing, "Have you been peeped at? I don't feel that there is any spiritual power staring at my spiritual sea."

Xiang Fei: "..."

Well, at least Major General Xiang was depressed.

In this case, seeing that it had no effect on Shi Xing, the two military officers Fu Qing and Tan Jue also tried to explore Shi Xing's spiritual sea. The former had the same feeling as Major General Xiang, while the latter made a new suggestion and could not enter the mist directly.

Chi Yao: "It seems that the newly added outer circle of the spiritual sea does have a self-protection function."

It's just that it's not clear what it is.

The administrator said pertinently, "Shi Xing has just entered the first stage of maturity. The ability of a healer should only grow significantly in the middle and late stages of maturity. Now..."

The administrator reasonably doubted, "Is it that Shi Xing's ability is not enough to support the use of his other talent?"

Chi Yao thought for a moment and

said, "It's possible." He added, "It could also be a growth-type talent, like my ability to perceive the wind and Bi Zhou's control over water. They all grew and improved through practice. At the beginning, it was just that my mental power was more friendly to these elements."

"And Shi Xing's spiritual sea has also changed. It is known that the spiritual sea and spiritual threads of the mature stage will grow accordingly. This outer layer may not be dead, and can change with the intake of energy."

Although it is still unclear what Shi Xing's other talent is, what is certain is that Shi Xing's body has recovered.

As long as there was no major problem with his health, everyone was relieved.

On the day when the Imperial Capital mothership and the additional entourage arrived, Chi Yao and Shi Xing changed into formal attire and called Mrs. Campbell's communicator.

The call was made by Marshal Tan Baishan and Mrs. Campbell at the same time.

After introducing Shi Xing and exchanging a few pleasantries, Chi Yao informed her of his decision to take Shi Xing to the North.

Chi Yao: "Is Yun Wu in the North?"

Marshal Tan Baishan: "Yes, but she is currently following the second brother to hunt star beasts in the forest. Your Majesty, do you want to see her?"

Chi Yao glanced at Shi Xing and said directly, "Shi Xing has been born with another talent. The spiritual power of the imperial people cannot probe into his spiritual sea. I want to find a doctor to try. If I come to the North, Yun Wu can help me with this."

Ignoring the shock of Tan Baishan and Mrs. Campbell, Chi Yao said again.

"The Campbell Star red ore that Madam sent last time is very useful to Shi Xing. This visit is also due to our need for red ore. Let's talk about it in detail after we meet."

He said just a few words and then disconnected the communication.

But for Marshal Tan and Madam Campbell, these few words contained a huge amount of information.

The two discussed it and then dialed Xu Jin's number.

On the surface, he was asking Chi Yao for instructions on the reception, but at the end of the conversation, his true intention was revealed and he asked a few questions about Shi Xing.

Xu Jin, a thousand-year-old fox, took this opportunity to pass on the news that Shi Xing's second talent evaluation level was 3s.

Completely ended the communication with Chi Yao.

Mrs. Campbell covered her mouth in disbelief, and said excitedly, "You said, is it true that His Majesty has thought about letting Shi Xing treat Xiao Chi?"

Having led the Seventh Legion for many years and experienced two emperors of the Empire, Tan Baishan's idea was more realistic.

"Not necessarily, His Majesty has not mentioned it directly."

Yes, only Yun Wu was mentioned in the greetings, and Chi Yao did not ask about the four children of the Tan family.

Mrs. Campbell: "But he said Shi Xing..."

Tan Baishan knew Chi Yao and interrupted: "Your Majesty has always been prudent. Even if he had this idea, he would only agree if it was not too much trouble for the Blue Star people. If it was beyond the ability of Shi Xing, it would definitely be impossible."

Mrs. Campbell's eyes were already filled with tears. "But Xiao Chi became like this for the empire. Can't Your Majesty..."

Tan Baishan patted her on the back. "Don't be excited."

"Since Your Majesty is willing to come, there is room for maneuver. Nothing is set in stone."

"Xiao Chi's problem is not just a concern for you. Our whole family is concerned about it. Your Majesty... Your Majesty is also concerned about it. Think about it, every time the Seventh Army came to report to the emperor, Your Majesty didn't ask about Tan Chi, right?"

These words comforted Mrs. Campbell, and after she calmed down, she wiped away her tears silently.

Marshal Tan was thinking of something and couldn't help muttering, "Red ore... The next day's gift... 3s..."

He suddenly said, "Madam, don't think about the delay. It won't be too late to ask for it when His Majesty comes. I think the most urgent thing is that you have to ask your family to get some Campbell Star ore. It doesn't have to be red ore, but the grade must not be lower than red ore. We will use some ore to welcome Shi Xing..."

"If I'm right, the ore is probably the main purpose of His Majesty's trip."

"There must be some changes in Shi Xing that I haven't mentioned today. We must be fully prepared."

"Oh yes, it's time to take care of the black market in the North. Let Tan Yan take people to stake out and see how many beast cores can be found. Then we can go together..." Tan

Baishan thought it through carefully. Mrs. Campbell stopped crying and agreed one by one.

Chi Yao hung up the communication and everyone began to move.

An hour ago, the mother ship carrying the Tree Nest personnel had already set off and returned.

After Chi Yao and others completed the transfer from the spaceship to the battleship, the spaceship went to the imperial capital as usual to dock and inspect. After everything was confirmed to be correct, the battleship slowly took off and started its official journey to the North.

In his entire life on Shixing, he had only been to three places.

One is the growing Ancheng, one is the imperial capital where the Lu family is located, and the other is the border where Lu Li is stationed.

And if you count carefully, he has hardly seen the scenery of the first two places, and the last place, only the star beast has no scenery.

On this trip, Shi Xing is more curious and expectant about the North.

Leaning against the window and watching the clouds retreat rapidly under the battleship, Shi Xing asked, "Your Highness, does it really snow all year round in the North?"

His tone was also full of expectation.

Chi Yao crossed his arms and walked to the other side of the window where Shi Xing was, leaning against it. Shi Xing looked out the window. He looked at Shi Xing and said, "Yes, the latitude is high, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and the forest area is large. It is easy for alien star beasts to sneak in. Every year, people are sent to the forest to detect and eliminate them once or twice."

"Then can we build snowmen?"

Chi Yao laughed, "And we can have snowball fights."

Shi Xing's eyes began to sparkle.

Chi Yao said again, "Where the Tan family lives is full of military garrisons, and there are not many residents. Go to a higher latitude in the direction of the forest, and you can see the aurora at night when camping."

"Do you want to go?"

Shi Xing looked at him when he heard it, his eyes wide open, "Can I?"

Chi Yao crossed his arms and lowered his head, smiling.

"Okay, but answer me a question first."

Shi Xing: "?"

Chi Yao's smile faded and he said seriously, "Why have you been so depressed these days? What are you unhappy about?" Shi

Xing choked and retorted. Because he lacked confidence, he didn't dare to look Chi Yao in the eye and whispered, "I'm not."

"No what? Not depressed? Not sighing three times a day? Or didn't you look at the red ore again and again, more carefully than with the beast core, treating it as a treasure and being reluctant to part with it, absorbing it slowly and slowly?"

Shi Xing: "..."

Chi Yao made a fatal blow: "Do you think I'm blind or Xu Jin is blind?"

Shi Xing: "..."
