Chapter 68 Unknown
◎Unforeseen disaster◎
After all, Omir said that there was something on the black market that would interest her. Since it hasn't appeared yet, it proves that such thing must be among the items auctioned at this dinner.
Qin Shu was quite curious about what that thing could be.
"Even if you want to see them, those things should be under strict guard, right?"
Qin Shu blinked in confusion when she heard this: "No matter how strict it is, what does it have to do with us?"
After saying that, Qin Shu walked straight through the wall and headed backstage. Seeing that Xu Wen hadn't followed, she leaned halfway out of the wall and waved at Xu Wen: "Don't you want to see?"
Xu Wen was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he realized that he was in a state of soul leaving his body and could not think in his usual way.
"I do." Xu Wen was originally worried that these things would cause unpredictable effects if circulated. Now that he can see them now, of course he wants to see them!
When the three people entered the backstage, they found twelve black boxes of completely different heights and sizes, and each box had a handle on it.
Although they didn't know how this black box protected the things inside, it didn't matter to Qin Shu and the others. They could just put their faces against the black box and their faces would pass through the box and into the inside.
"Hmm, what is this?" Qin Shu looked at the first auction item and blinked in confusion.
If she saw correctly, there was a silver-white card inside with a string of numbers on it.
Why is this thing at this dinner? What's so special about it?
As soon as Qin Shu and the others finished looking at the items, the person in charge of protecting the auction items brought the box to the front desk.
Qin Shu heard the auctioneer introduce the item, saying, "This is the first lot of the dinner, and it's one of our signature items. It's a privilege card for Planet A9011. With it, guests not only have free access to the black market, but also enjoy priority ordering of all goods on the planet. Remember, many of the good stuff is limited."
Qin Shu listened and ignored it, and went directly to the second black box.
The things in the second black box did not arouse Qin Shu's interest, because there was a special gem inside. Others did not recognize it, but Qin Shu had seen a lot of it in the magic world. It was a magic stone, and what was sealed inside was a kind of charm magic. In fact, it was similar to the effect of the alien insect, but without the side effects, so there was no need to worry about being replaced by insects.
Qin Shu looked all the way around but didn't see anything of interest. Just when she thought Omir was lying to her, she walked to the last black box and looked inside.
"Huh?"
"What did you see?" It was rare for Xu Wen to see Qin Shu with such an expression, and he was a little curious for a moment.
As for Hei Wuchang, he had already leaned over to take a look. After he finished, he glanced at Qin Shu again and said, "It has a causal connection with you."
This sentence made Xu Wen even more curious, and he quickly leaned over to take a look. When he saw it, he was almost shocked: "Mecha!"
Yes, the thing in the last box was a humanoid mecha, and it was obviously different from the large mechas that were popular in StarCraft and had to be operated by multiple people. It was a wearable, lightweight mecha the same size as a human.
Seeing Xu Wen's excitement, Qin Shu quickly added, "Don't get excited. This thing isn't as powerful as you think. It requires spiritual power to operate, and we haven't awakened our spiritual power yet. In other words, it's just a decoration. Even if you tear it apart, you won't learn much."
"How do you know so much?" Xu Wen was a little surprised.
Qin Shu paused for a moment after hearing this, and then realized: "Oh, I forgot to mention, this thing is designed by me."
"You designed this!?" Xu Wen's voice rose a little unusually.
"Yeah." Qin Shu's expression was very calm.
"This is a mecha. Can you design a mecha?"
“Is this strange?”
"No, it's not that I feel weird, I'm just really shocked." Xu Wen's eyes were sparkling when he looked at Qin Shu. The last time he showed this look was when he saw the Monkey King.
Qin Shu looked at Xu Wen like this and suddenly realized that he was actually quite easy to understand.
"If you were in that world, you would only do better than me."
"Are you referring to the fast-travel world you visited before? By the way... can you talk to the researchers in the mecha department?"
Qin Shu laughed a little when she heard this: "Isn't Omir, who is known for being omniscient and almighty, more suitable than me?"
Why don't you ask Omir, but ask her instead?
"That's different."
"What's the difference?"
Xu Wen didn't know how to explain it: "Just think of it as talking to your own family so it's easier to communicate."
"Oh." Qin Shu nodded, but she was not interested in these. What she was interested in now was, "But why did this thing appear here?"
That was something that existed in the fast-travel world she had experienced, but now it appeared in reality.
You have to know that when she traveled back in time, she only brought back a system, and she couldn't bring back anything from the world she traveled in time.
Could it be that——
Is there another fast-traveler besides her? That fast-traveler can bring back things that don't belong to this world?
"Why do I feel like you don't seem very surprised?" Apart from the initial surprise, Qin Shu's reaction was really too flat.
"If I have to say, it's probably because I've met people from other realities in the fast-travel world?"
Although there is only one person, he is a likable little fat boy.
She had experienced too much and her mind was a little confused, so she could not remember the little fat boy's name.
So when something from the fast-travel world suddenly appeared in reality, although Qin Shu was a little surprised at first, after thinking about it carefully, she felt that it was not that strange.
"There are other fast travelers!?" Xu Wen was so shocked by the news that he couldn't react.
"I'm not sure, but this thing...if it were me, I might think it was a coincidence. But since Lord Wuchang said there's a causal connection between me and me, then it must be something I created in the Quick Travel World. Since it appeared here, someone must have brought it out."
"That……"
"Let's leave here first." Hei Wuchang urged.
Qin Shu actually didn't see anything that Omir said she would be particularly interested in, but seeing that Hei Wuchang repeatedly asked to leave, even though she was still curious, she nodded in agreement: "Okay."
Xu Wen also knew that this was not a good place to ask further questions, so he nodded.
The three people were about to leave in a hurry, but at this moment, more people suddenly came. Unlike those who were guarding the auction items, these people were all wearing military uniforms unique to the planet A9011, and the one in the lead had epaulettes on his shoulders, which showed that they were not ordinary soldiers.
Some staff members recognized this troop and their spirits were lifted.
"What is this?" Qin Shu always felt that this scene was a bit too big. There were so many soldiers even backstage. What happened?
However, since she had decided to leave, Qin Shu only glanced at him with her peripheral vision and continued to float out with Hei Wuchang.
Just as they were about to leave the banquet hall, a burst of uniform voices suddenly came from outside the corridor.
At the same time, a person who looked like the person in charge of the dinner party was standing respectfully in front of the banquet door, with lowered eyebrows and a slight nod.
Is this preparation for the welcome?
Who are we going to welcome?
Curiosity is like a naughty cat, constantly scratching Qin Shu's heart.
Isn’t Xu Wen curious too?
"Could it be that the mysterious planet master has appeared?" The Interstellar Federation hasn't found any information about this person. If he could see him in person...
Fortunately, even though the two of them were about to explode with curiosity, they still strictly followed the retreat plan. As individuals, they both had very strong personalities, but when acting as a team, they knew very well that sometimes they had to restrain their personalities.
So, there was not a single flaw.
But who would have thought that just when they floated to the entrance of the passage again, the familiar alarm sounded again, and it was even more urgent than the previous time!
The door in front of them fell down instantly, blocking their way forward.
"An abnormal unknown energy body has been detected! An abnormal unknown energy body has been detected! Please ask relevant personnel to arrive immediately to maintain safety!"
"What's going on?" Xu Wen frowned. There was no alarm when they passed by here just now.
Qin Shu didn't say anything, but instead slammed against the door. Although she was in soul state, she couldn't pass through the wall this time.
Hei Wuchang's feeling of uneasiness became even stronger.
Qin Shu made a quick decision: "Let's go back to the banquet first."
At least there are many "noble people" there. If any accident really happens, it may make the people of planet A9011 wary.
Hei Wuchang frowned, but finally nodded in agreement: "Let's go."
The three people floated back quickly, but countless soldiers suddenly rushed out and rushed towards the passage door.
At the same time, two objects similar to searchlights were suddenly pushed out by the soldiers.
Qin Shu didn't know what that thing was, but her intuition told her to stay away from it.
"Snap." Two one-meter-square lights were suddenly turned on, emitting a burst of blazing white light.
Under the strong light, Qin Shu felt as if her whole body was on fire and there was a burning pain. This was the result of her instinctively pulling Xu Wen and Hei Wuchang to the side and only touching a little light.
She couldn't imagine what would happen if she was directly hit by this light.
And suddenly, a black shadow appeared on the ground where there was no shadow just now.
There was the shadow of Qin Shu's leg, which was still illuminated despite her best efforts to avoid it, and—
"Damn! Who is that shadow!?" Qin Shu rarely cursed.
Because under the illumination of this light, there is actually a "fourth person"! Judging from the shadow, it is a tall man.
The so-called unknown energy body should refer to him!
They were simply dragged into this and suffered an unexpected disaster.
