Su Su reported the location of the space station starport where his Silver Dragon starship was parked.

Qi Hanyi arrived very quickly, almost at the same time as Su Su.

From a distance, Qi Hanyi saw a player in the image of a shark doll, jumping around on his short legs and waving at him.

"Here, here!" He said with great excitement, as if he was looking forward to meeting me very much.

It was obvious that he had no status in the game, and with the most ordinary game appearance, he was just an inconspicuous player.

Qi Hanyi didn't understand what the other party was expecting, but his pace involuntarily quickened.

As soon as Qi Hanyi stood in front of Su Su, Su Su grabbed Qi Hanyi's clothes with his short, fin-like hands: "Come on! Let me show you something good."

Qi Hanyi was not used to being pulled by others, even in a virtual game. He subconsciously wanted to wave him off, but stopped a second before he could act. His eyes fell on a starship not far away, and he let Su Su pull him and run in that direction.

They arrived in front of a glittering silver starship, and Su Su happily showed off his new equipment to his friends: "This is the Silver Dragon starship, which my friend gave me. It looks nice, doesn't it?"

Qi Hanyi looked at the restored starship in front of him and slowly clenched his fists.

The Silver Dragon, which was decommissioned due to severe damage a year before he was born, was once the starship his father piloted when he was the commander of the Interstellar Expeditionary Force.

"Very beautiful." Qi Hanyi stood at the dock and looked up at the glowing starship, feeling a silver glow all over his body.

"Yeah, yeah. I think so too!" Su Su was even happier to get his friend's approval: "I think the Bai Ze must be more beautiful."

The appearance of the Bai Ze flashed through Qi Hanyi's mind. The Bai Ze was indeed very good-looking. It was not as gorgeous as the Silver Dragon. Its appearance was more simple and smooth, and the coating increased the stealth effect. Compared with the Silver Dragon starship, its size, loading capacity, and various performances had been greatly improved.

But this one was the starship that his father had flown. Even if it was just data in the game, Qi Hanyi felt close to it.

"Would you like to join us?" Su Su opened the cabin door and invited.

"Okay." Qi Hanyi followed with big strides.

The novice starship in Silver Dragon is much larger, and theoretically can accommodate more mechas and combat personnel. The game restores the proportions of starships one to one, but Su Su's starship has no mechas and no matching combat personnel, so it looks empty.

In the main cockpit, in addition to the main driver's seat, there are also positions for the main attacker and observer, which are also not available on the novice starship.

Normally, this is also the standard configuration for driving a starship. The observer is the eyes and the brain, and the driver and the main attacker are the hands and feet. Compared with the novice starship, the operation of this advanced starship is more complicated and cumbersome. One person cannot take care of all the work. The division of labor among three people can reduce the pressure on each person.

But the prerequisite is that the three people have enough tacit understanding, otherwise the situation on the battlefield changes rapidly and the slightest mistake will lose the opportunity to fight.

If you use mental driving, you don't need a main attacker or an observer. One person can perfectly control the starship without worrying about any coordination problems.

Su Su touched the buttons in the cockpit curiously, then sat down in the main driver's seat and started the starship.

Qi Hanyi sat in the observer seat with the best view.

When Su Su was debugging the machine, Qi Hanyi did not participate much. He just casually adjusted the screen view to the mode he was most used to. Normally, when he did not use his mental power to drive, he would often sit in the observation seat like this and observe the surrounding situation.

"What are you waiting for?"

"Well, just walking around." Su Su answered casually.

Qi Hanyi paused for a moment as he adjusted his view of the screen. Just turn it around?

His schedule is always filled with various plans, as if his time would be wasted if he didn't do something for a while.

Such aimless wandering undoubtedly made him feel very uncomfortable.

But Qi Hanyi did not object. The guest should follow the host's wishes. No matter where Su Su went or what he did, his purpose was just to observe the other party's driving state of the starship in person.

Su Su lay on his back on the seat, and the metal on the seat quickly wrapped him firmly on the seat.

Qi Hanyi stared at Su Su closely, observing his movements, wondering how long it would take him to switch his mental power mode today.

The next second, white flames spurted out from the starship's tail fin, and it accelerated suddenly. The silver wings retracted rapidly, and the starship rushed out of the port like a silver stream of light.

Without any operation, the opponent switched to mental power operation almost the moment of starting, which was much smoother than in the video.

"You can control the starship without using a console." Qi Hanyi pretended to be surprised and asked, "Can you use mental power to operate it?"

Unfortunately, his acting skills were poor, and there wasn't much surprise or confusion in his tone.

Fortunately, Su Su did not think too much about it. He thought that the other party's calm tone was quite normal. Qi Hanyi usually spoke like this. It seemed that nothing could make him lose his composure.

Su Su responded cheerfully: "I don't really understand it either. I learned it vaguely the last time I drove a new model. It's much easier to operate this way than using the control panel."

"Come to think of it, using mental power to control the silver dragon seems to be even easier than controlling a novice starship. It's almost connected with just a thought. Is this the advantage of an advanced starship?"

"Advanced starships are indeed more sensitive in mental connection." Qi Hanyi looked at the real-time images transmitted back from the screen.

[Whitescale Shark] is a man who loves adventure. He doesn't follow basic operating regulations when driving a spaceship. He rubs against asteroids wherever there are them, and drills into gravity circles wherever there are them. Sometimes he makes a sharp turn in the air, and sometimes he rolls around a few times, and he doesn't slow down at all. It's almost like he's performing acrobatics as he drives forward.

But he drove very steadily, and calculated the angle and speed just right.

A high-level starship means stronger operating performance and a higher operating limit. But it does not mean that a higher-level starship is easier to operate. On the contrary, a higher-level starship requires higher mental talent and consumes more damage.

Only those who have a strong mental talent and can accurately control and use their mental power can perform this operation.

Qi Hanyi did not tell the other party these words, and let him drive the Silver Dragon and run wildly in the universe.

Su Su was having a great time, but Qi Hanyi, who was sitting in the observation seat, had not forgotten about it. He was still thinking about the fact that his opponent had failed the preliminary round when he signed up for the competition, and he was eager to offer help: "Psycho-driving is very simple, much simpler than normal mecha operation. If you learn it, you will definitely have no problem dealing with the preliminary round."

"You want to teach me?" Qi Hanyi's mind moved slightly. This [White-Scale Shark] seemed to have no idea how amazing it was that he could use mental power to drive. Even if he had not paid attention to this aspect before and didn't know much about it, his old player friend who gave him the starship didn't tell him?

"Yes, I tell you, you just need to concentrate and mobilize your mental power to try to merge with the starship." Su Su was a practitioner and had no idea what the real process of mental power connection was. He talked about everything from his own personal experience.

He didn't know that even humans with mental powers, who were able to sense and mobilize mental powers, still needed a certain amount of training and skills to be able to use them freely.

"But I don't have mental strength." Qi Hanyi said.

"Hey!" Su Su was stunned, and even the starship paused for a moment when it was turning somersaults. He realized belatedly that humans seemed to be different from mermaids, and not all of them had spiritual power.

Qi Hanyi asked about Su Su's origin indirectly: "Only humans who have combined with mermaids can give birth to offspring with spiritual power."

When talking about spiritual power, it is inevitable to mention mermaids. But maybe because it was on the Internet, Qi Hanyi was not as uneasy as usual when he heard about mermaids.

Su Su was completely unprepared for the netizens and told them the truth: "My mother is a mermaid."

As expected. Humans born from mermaid mothers have the highest spiritual talents.

"I heard that only nobles can combine with mermaids. Are you a noble from the empire?" Qi Hanyi asked deliberately.

Of course he knew that the other party was not telling him the truth, but he was just trying to get the other party to tell him the truth and to test whether the other party was lying to him.

"No." Su Su quickly denied: "My family is quite special. My mother fell in love with my father and ran away from home to follow him. Later, I was born."

It turned out to be a free union between mermaids and humans. Qi Hanyi was a little surprised.

This situation also exists in the Empire, although it is very rare. It is more common on the Free Island.

Qi Hanyi couldn't help but ask, "Are your parents loving? Are they good to you?"

This was originally irrelevant to the main topic, but when Qi Hanyi realized it, he had already said it. The other party was also a child born of a mermaid and a human, which made him subconsciously feel that they were somewhat similar, and he vaguely hoped that the other party could live differently from him.

Su Su just thought it was just idle chat and answered casually: "They have a good relationship. They are together every day and don't care about me at all."

"Don't care about you?" Qi Hanyi was puzzled. If the couple had a harmonious relationship, why would they ignore their children? He thought that only he was like this. His mother hated his father and hated human beings, so she would also regard him as an enemy.

"Yes, I have been catching fish for myself since I was a child. If I don't have any to eat, I will be hungry." Su Su said this in a very relaxed tone, as if it was just a casual joke.

But this is actually his real life. Sharks are not born with the habit of raising children. His mother followed the local customs and forgot that his mermaid blood would make him much weaker in size and strength than other sharks. He really had a hard life when he was a child.

However, Su Su did not blame his mother, after all, the other little sharks also survived and grew up by themselves. He was very grateful to his mother. Although she did not give him a stronger body, she gave him a mind that could think, gave him the blood of a normal mermaid, gave him the opportunity to come to the human world, and let him live a life completely different from that of sharks.

According to Su Su's description, Qi Hanyi sketched out the image of a free boy who lived by the sea, made a living by fishing, and whose parents did not discipline him much.

He felt relieved. The other person was different from him. His parents might really not care much about him, but at least he had not been hurt by it.

He grew up in a free and easy environment, and perhaps because his living environment was relatively simple, he seemed a little naive. He acted without plans and really enjoyed the present moment.

The silver pterosaur shuttled freely in the universe, as if it could go anywhere. It once again dived through an asteroid belt. Su Su raised his hands excitedly and cheered like a happy child.

Qi Hanyi looked up and saw the young man in the driver's seat wearing the skin of a shark doll. His real expression could not be seen, but his wagging tail revealed his happiness at the moment.

From him, Qi Hanyi understood what Xiang Chen meant by simply enjoying the fun of operating a starship. It turns out that not having to bear anything, not having to think about work and meaning, and driving a starship according to one's own heart can also be a very happy thing.

Qi Hanyi was born with expectations and responsibilities, and his words and actions had to be measured. He never thought there was anything wrong with this, but now he suddenly felt a little envious of the free-spirited young man.

I envy his freedom, which is engraved in his bones. He has never been restricted by anything. I envy his innocence, simplicity, boldness and willfulness, and he acts according to his heart.
