The huge mineral men were towed by thousands of spaceships, like a group of hot air balloons rising into the sky, moving steadily forward in space.
As it passed by different planets, different mineral giants also broke through the planet's atmosphere and stood shoulder to shoulder with it. The huge races reflected each other, forming a silent galaxy, rushing towards their royal court.
Near them, thousands of spaceships took off into the sky, following the formation like moths to a flame. The fireworks at the tail of the spaceships were like the difference between fireflies and the sun compared to the flash group. But when the fireworks gathered together, they were as beautiful as a star map.
"Chao Ping" is one of them.
Gano calmly operated the control panel. Driving a spaceship was much easier than driving a suit of armor. Xi Yujin confidently stuck to the window, and found everything interesting. They followed the Flash Tribe slowly. Some of the other spaceships with them were due to the instinct of living things to move towards light, while others were heading for the Flash Empire's essay contest.
"This is their Star Garden." Xi Yujin exclaimed.
In the distance, an icy star is embedded in the center of a group of planets.
In fact, it is sealed in a huge transparent ore, like a gem in a display cabinet, emitting only faint light and heat. The entire star system is dim, because the Flash Clan does not allow anyone to shine brighter than themselves.
"Stars have no star power..." Xi Yujin marveled at the beauty of the Star Garden when he first saw it, and couldn't help but complain after understanding the situation.
Be sure to wrap your vests tightly!
The Flash tribe each landed on a planet, bringing about the sunrise and sunset themselves.
Other ships with different purposes can only hover over the planet and are not allowed to land. The Star Court of the Flash Clan is a forbidden exploration area. If you anger them, they will grab a passing ship and crush the intruder with two fingers.
"The Flash Tribe is the indigenous inhabitants of the Pangolith Galaxy and they live underground all year round. A long time ago, the indigenous creatures on the ground depended on them for survival. The Flash Tribe compares themselves to an ancient empire, but in fact their total number is very small and they have a democratic voting system internally." said Gano.
Xi Yujin: "So it's not the remnants of feudalism..."
He thought that there were emperors, princes, and concubines in the interstellar age.
Gano briefly explained the history of this galaxy:
"The Flash Empire has a vast star region, but only underground. They trade with the creatures on the ground, sell the surface area to other creatures to live in, and ensure the safety of the ground. As a result, the ground biological population gradually develops. After the cosmic war, the exchanges between the creatures became more frequent, so the Flying Duck Chamber of Commerce was derived. The foreign materialistic reading club also came here to develop."
"It sounds like there are undercurrents among these three forces."
Xi Yujin was still watching with great interest.
"On the surface, their purposes are completely unrelated. The Flash Empire wants tribute, the Flying Duck Chamber of Commerce wants money, and the Reading Club wants to spread ideas. In fact, the attention of individual organisms is limited. If they decide to spend money, they will not have time to care about materialistic ideas. Their essay contest is just a way to snatch people."
Xi Yujin took a bite of the mineral cup like he was eating a watermelon. After enjoying the delicious taste, he looked at his reflection in the window, and his expression became calm instead:
"interesting."
…
"The Star King's Court has moved to this coordinate again. Then our Flash Empire's 'Underground World' essay contest officially begins. Do you agree?"
"Yuyeshi agrees."
"Snake Heart Stone agrees."
The dark planet glowed faintly with green and brown-red light.
"Mizukawa Mingzhushi agrees - haha, I really can't wait to see the stupid imaginations of the ground creatures."
A planet somewhere erupted in loud laughter, and then lit up with a sky-blue light.
"We have held so many essay contests on 'The Underground World', and these creatures on the ground have never once submitted a satisfactory answer." The other Flash Tribe echoed, emitting light one after another.
"Quiet." The purple ore giant that appeared first was the host of the voting meeting. It stayed on the planet closest to the Star Courtyard, and its ancient heart was filled with helplessness. It didn't understand why its companions still liked to read novels of this kind after thousands of years.
But it had no choice but to accept the voting result. So it activated the loudspeaker and transmitted the sound to the entire Pangshi galaxy.
“The votes have been counted and the resolution has been passed.
The 'Underground World' themed essay contest is now open to the public, and we welcome submissions from all novelists.
The winner can come and visit the underground palace of our Royal Court star system. May the shining empire shine forever—"
"The arrogance of the Glittering Empire is well-deserved. This time the theme of the essay contest is the same again. Let's just disband it. They are not sincere in soliciting essays at all."
"It's disgusting. They are really beautiful, but they have so little respect for novelists."
Some spaceships left here cursing, and even Xi Yujin could hear the creatures' curses.
Is this essay topic difficult?
Xi Yujin continued to eat melon while listening to Ganuo's explanation.
It turns out that the mental disorder of the Flash Tribe is not serious, they are soliciting submissions just to make fun of them.
They live underground and have a very advanced geocentric construction technology. It is said that they have built their palaces at the center of each planet. Out of arrogance, they completely refuse outsiders to visit, and they ask novelists to imagine their underground palaces.
The first "Underground World" collected many manuscripts. Although the Flash Clan awarded the prizes truthfully, they laughed at the manuscripts one by one:
"Look at the barren imagination of the ground! It has no idea how beautiful our palace is!"
"No creature on the ground could ever paint a better scene than the underground palace, and it is a great honor for the winners to have a look at it."
The "Underground World" essay competition is a complete humiliation to novelists.
However, there are still many creatures with different purposes who continue to submit their works. The Flash Tribe essay contest has continued like this, with the theme of each session being the same, which really shows that the original intention has not changed.
Gano looked at Xi Yujin who was eating watermelon by the window, and asked doubtfully: "Even so, will Yujinnuo's friends participate in this essay contest?"
"Why not?" Xi Yujin tilted his head.
Come on! This is a free trip to the center of the earth! Humans have long imagined the center of the earth. There is even a classic novel called "Journey to the Center of the Earth". Of course, we have to fight for it!
As for the humiliation of novelists by the Shining Empire, he is not a creature of this universe and does not have that kind of sense of honor as a writer.
He simply felt...
It's all very interesting.
Xi Yujin took a few bites and murmured, "As for the imaginative literature of underground palaces, let me think... underground palaces, underground palaces, palaces of ancient people. Well, I have a friend who likes to study the folklore of Blue Star."
He introduced himself to Ganuo in a serious manner.
"We on Blue Star have a folk custom since ancient times.
Grave robbing! "
…
Tide level.
Empty workshop.
"This is my friend, Yongye. His work is 'Mr. Zhong's Detective Cases'. He is a melancholy man who likes to solve cases. He has some strange hobbies and decided to submit his work to the reading club."
Xi Yujin brought in a pile of printed manuscripts.
Nowadays, electronic manuscripts are more common, but he still thinks that working with paper versions is more comfortable. And now it is very convenient, and you can just scan it and change it to an electronic version after making any changes.
Ganuo looked at the pile of manuscripts as if he were facing a great enemy.
"This is my friend, um, let's call him Canghai. He is a folklore researcher on Blue Star, and he is writing... The Code of the Ancient Tomb. But it's not finished yet, I'll wait for him. He is going to submit it to the Glittering Empire."
Xi Yujin took out a blank piece of paper, indicating that this person’s progress had only reached “Create a New Folder”.
Cang Hai is taken from an idiom. The palace underground is well preserved, but the ground is a sea of changes. Xi Yujin thinks it is quite suitable for this submission.
"This is my friend, Xun Ming."
Xi Yujin continued to introduce his friends and took out another pile of manuscripts.
"He is going to write "Fairy Tale Love" and submit it to the emotional track of Feiya Chamber of Commerce. You can be responsible for translating it first. You can read it first."
Xun Ming Ma Jia is the most popular and easiest to translate. Considering that Ganuo is not a professional, it is better to start with this.
He also didn't know how Xun Ming's writing was this time, so he wanted to ask Ganuo what he thought after reading it.
Gano took a deep breath, turned to the first page, read it all the way through, and his pupils instantly dilated by one pixel.
Xi Yujin looked at him expectantly.
Gano turned to the second page and his pupils dilated one pixel again.
"How is it?" Xi Yujin asked, "I can also share the outline so you can see the follow-up." He floated beside Ganuo, propped up his face to look at him, and got quite close.
Ganuo blinked and lowered his head: "This creation is very interesting."
"And, thank you very much..." Ganuo's voice became lower and lower, "Thank you for the use of the room given by Yujinnuo."
After he left the tribe, he used his mecha to sleep in space. Occasionally, when he woke up, he would find himself drifting to a strange place with the ray rain. He needed to reposition his route and move forward alone in the endless universe.
After all, leaving the tribe means being homeless and without help.
Xi Yujin said it was just a small matter. The spaceship was so big, and it would be more convenient to chat if he invited Ganuo to live next to him. He didn't know Ganuo's true situation, but he knew that he would buy some good furniture for this partner in the future.
"Have you adapted to this gravity mode? Do you need to make any adjustments?" Xi Yujin turned to inquire about his companion's living conditions.
The Chaoping gradually became lively.
…
Feiya Novel Network, editorial headquarters.
A duck wearing glasses weakly tapped the computer interface. It was just an ordinary employee who didn't understand the conspiracy of the upper management. For it, every day was just sitting in front of the computer to work, and then going home after work, living a straight line life.
At the beginning, it had fantasies about the editing job, thinking that it would have a keen eye and find several excellent novels, and then get promoted and get a raise, thus reaching the peak of its career.
But no, it found that its job was just to read the electronic waste, then sort the waste, package the waste, and then shout on the website that there is some delicious waste here.
Recently, the editorial department has implemented a last-place elimination system. Any duck whose performance is not up to standard will pack up and run away. Now the atmosphere in the editorial office is relaxed, only here is low pressure. Because they are all sure that they are the duck with the lowest performance and will be kicked out in the next assessment.
The heavy work pressure caused all its feathers to fall out.
I really want to go out and fly a few laps...
How long has it been since it read the second creation of other novels?
But it doesn't dare to resign, nor does it want to be fired...
The big yellow duck wearing glasses sighed and continued its review work.
"Let me see the next one, Blue Star? It sounds familiar. Have I heard of it somewhere before?"
"The name of this book is, "Fairy Tale of Life and Death"? "
The big yellow duck pushed his glasses and decided to go home after reviewing this book.
Soon, all the ducks in the office ran away. The duck manager came to inspect and found that no ducks were working overtime, which made him unhappy. But when he saw the duck wearing glasses still facing the glowing computer, he felt a little relieved. Then he begged for mercy for the duck.
It walked closer, knocked on the duck's desk, and said, "Why are you still not off work for so long?"
"What!" The duck with glasses suddenly woke up, "Off work?"
The content of "Fairy Tale of Life and Death" was clearly displayed on its optical computer interface.
