Chapter 3 Chapter 3 Sometimes it's easy to miss
The universe is silent, and everything around is quiet.
Looking out from this abandoned star.
The surroundings are empty, with a faint fluorescent glow, and above the head is the twinkling, ever-lasting Rose Nebula.
Li Ming folded his wings and sat on the ground, blocking most of the sky.
The little dragon in front of him only showed its big round black eyes.
She looked at him with that childish, confused and evasive gaze.
This is a little black dragon with almost no other colors mixed in. It is pure black. When it lies in the dark, as long as it does not show its head, almost no one can find it.
The poor homeless kid was hiding in the pit he had dug himself, his body still covered in dust and dirt, with big tears falling into the pit.
Even if you have a heart of stone, it will melt a little at this moment.
It was like Li Ming’s own feeling which was difficult to describe at the moment.
Causing trouble and fighting are what he is best at. The rush of blood during a fight and the excitement of constantly hovering on the line between life and death are what fascinate Silver Dragon.
But he felt a similar change of feeling at this moment.
It doesn't come from a life-and-death struggle, nor does it have anything to do with excitement.
It all came from the dark little guy in front of him, who could be easily held in his palm.
Xiaolong looked at the other party and found that he did not make any further moves. He relaxed his vigilance slightly and remained buried in the pit. His little tail subconsciously swayed from left to right.
“Ouch…”
Although he is not liked by his family, he is indeed a dragon.
Xiao Mumu cannot communicate smoothly with the dragons in this interstellar space, and does not quite understand why the blue dragon that Xiaoyang mentioned has silver wings. Is this the color scheme of the dragons in this world?
And the lamb also said that blue dragon parents are knowledgeable and gentle... Thinking about the "bomb" that just fell on him, the little black dragon fantasized for a while, shook his body, and tried to dig the hole deeper.
But the little guy didn't need to explain it himself. After searching for interstellar species and then using instruments for determining species to make a quick measurement, the only conclusion that could be drawn was that it was a little dragon cub.
This was the first time Li Ming encountered such a situation, and he scratched his head in annoyance and confusion.
Mainly in this situation, even if a different dragon came, there would be no suitable contingency plan.
The dragon clan hasn't seen a cub for thousands of years.
If he didn't know that he belonged to the category of biological beings, he would think that he was no different from an interstellar robot.
And then a strange little black dragon cub appeared out of nowhere.
It's really weird.
But anyway.
The cubs can't stay here.
As for the cubs in the family, maybe we can take them back and ask the clan leader what his reaction is.
"Don't be afraid, little one. No one can hurt you here. Let's take the airship back, okay? Let's go back first and see how you are doing."
After Li Ming finished thinking, he tentatively reached out his hand to Xiaolong.
Mu Mu's eyes widened, and his pupils shrank to the size of needles in an instant. He naturally didn't understand what Li Ming was talking about.
The system lamb had completely stopped moving, and the little black dragon was used to suffering from his own kind, even his parents and siblings, and he had the experience of living alone. So his first reaction to the hand reaching out to him was to hide.
Even if someone assures him that this is his new family who will dote on him - even though the color scheme of this family may be a bit strange, such as a blue body and silver wings.
But in fact, it has only been a few weeks since the little guy died last time.
Li Ming watched the little guy tremble and turn around to run.
He moved quickly, reached out and grabbed the little guy back.
If he gets away, it will be fatal.
Although the materials on this abandoned planet have not been tested yet, they are most likely harmful to the cubs. In addition, this little guy can dig holes and has a natural protective color. As long as he blends into the night and does not move, you can't see him even without radar.
Li meditated and moved more quickly.
When the little dragon was held in his hands, it was still crawling forward, its four short legs paddling desperately in the air. The whole dragon was still dazed, but its limbs had already left the ground, and it could only stick its head out and look down blankly.
It's like a little turtle sticking its head out in a panic, and it can't even use its wings very well.
The corners of Li Ming's lips curved slightly and quickly.
I feel like this little guy is so light in my hand.
But we can't get entangled with this little guy here.
Li Ming held the dragon cub, and before the dragon cub could react, the silver wings behind him spread out in an instant, covering the sky above the dragon cub's head, and flew towards the docked airship.
Before Mu Mu could fully react, they were already back on the airship.
The mechanical hatch slowly closed behind him, making a firm sound of air pressure.
Li Ming was still holding Xiaolong. He half-knelt not far from the cabin door and carefully put the little guy who finally began to struggle in his arms on the ground.
It's called an emergency airship.
But the actual space is not small, and the operation control room is separated from the passenger cabin outside.
Li Ming was not worried that Xiaolong's running around here would affect his normal driving and flight.
Little Mumu was once again taken to a strange place. He didn't have much time to adapt to the situation. He fell to the ground in panic while struggling.
The moment it landed, it seemed as if a small motor was installed on its back. It quickly found the shaded area of the cabin and instantly drilled in.
The silver-haired man with honey skin raised his eyes thoughtfully, staring at the shadow where there was no problem. Finally, he slowly stood up, pretended to be nothing, walked into the cab, and took the time to look back.
There was no movement in the cabin at this moment.
The little guy looks like just a tiny cub, but he actually has a strong ability to hide.
And the hiding movements were too skillful.
It was like trying it countless times in a panic in danger.
Those who are too timid don't even dare to look him in the eye.
It is hard not to think too much about this situation - the dragon race possesses very powerful genes in the interstellar space.
Likewise, there are forces behind the scenes that are trying to do something.
But logically speaking, these sewer rats should not have the courage to make these things public, nor would they abandon a cub that is extremely rare to their own people in this ghost place.
It's so weird.
"Team 45 has located the cub and is preparing to evacuate. Considering the cub's condition, the estimated arrival time is after twelve o'clock."
Li Ming communicates with the starship.
"receive."
The news came back quickly.
"Have you discovered what species the cubs are? If it's convenient, you can send the cubs back."
Li Ming had a strange expression.
"On the way."
"This isn't just a simple stopover. You can't even guess how convenient it is."
The person in charge of communications is Song Xi, who has a very good temper among the Silver Dragons.
He raised his eyebrows in confusion.
"What?"
"Songxi, I picked up a dragon cub."
Hiding in the shadows, the kind you can't see unless he shows his head!
On the other end of the communicator: ...
"ha?"
at the same time.
This abandoned planet is not far from the main inhabited planet of the Blue Dragon race, even closer than the Silver Dragon.
About half an hour ago, they received an emergency distress signal.
The alarm level was directly raised to the maximum level based on the system's judgment.
The Blue Dragon Clan is currently conducting relevant investigations.
The previous chief of the Blue Dragon Clan has just retired from the position and chosen to travel in other galaxies. The new chief, Zhu Xuan, is considered to be a relatively young dragon among the Blue Dragons. If nothing unexpected happens, his position as chief will last for thousands of years or even longer, and he may even be able to celebrate his 3,000th birthday.
"Have you found the reason?"
Zhu Xuan, wearing half-frame glasses, stood calmly aside, looking at the red distress signal that filled the screen.
"Not yet, Chief. We still haven't figured out who and how triggered the highest distress alert within our Blue Dragon Clan."
"If I remember correctly, there's an abandoned planet near these interstellar coordinates."
Zhu Xuan pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose with his pale fingertips. The whole dragon looked calm, as if his judgment would not be affected by anything.
"Have the nearby starships arrived?"
"Not yet. The closest starship to the distress alarm will take another one and a half stars to arrive."
"But don't worry, Chief. We've been working overtime to conduct a comprehensive investigation. Apart from this alarm, we haven't found any strange signs within the clan."
It had only been half a week since the alarm was triggered, and they had already checked everything.
Zhu Xuan's serious expression relaxed slightly, and he finally smiled gently and shrewdly.
"Thank you for your hard work. Continue your preparations. Have the starships that have landed on the abandoned planet conduct a comprehensive search. Once the search is complete, send the search report directly to my desk."
The Blue Dragons' search was doomed to fail.
The Silver Dragons who had intercepted the dragon halfway were so shocked by the words "dragon cub" that they were unable to react.
“What is that???”
"Dragon cub?! Li Ming, did you take the wrong medicine?"
"That's right, how can our race have cubs?!"
"I can't even imagine what the young of our species look like, hahaha. You must not have studied your academic subjects well, or you have juvenile dementia and forgot too quickly, so you made a mistake. Hahaha. I told you a long time ago, don't just think about fighting when you're studying."
Li Ming leaned on the command panel and smiled coldly.
"Oh, believe it or not."
To be honest, I didn't believe it until I saw it.
"The airship's signal is weak and the transmission is slow. Go report to the tribe leader and see what needs to be done with this cub..."
As Li Ming was speaking, he heard a bang outside.
His voice paused, and then he heard several consecutive "dong dong dong" sounds outside.
Li Ming:?
What's going on?
"I won't report such outrageous things to you."
"That's right, go report it yourself..."
"If the old patriarch saw this and saw my signature, he would beat me to death with his cane."
"That wasn't a crutch our clan leader was using, was it? I remember him repeatedly emphasizing that it was a cane, wasn't it?"
"Hey, aren't they all the same?"
"is that so?"
The attention of a group of dragons was drawn away.
Li Ming's attention was also drawn away by the little dragon in the cabin.
"Just report it yourself."
He casually typed a line of report on the control screen and sent it, then stood up and walked outside.
"Communication ended. Let's talk again on Scala."
Li Ming walked to the door and took out a flashlight.
There are some instruments and supplies in the cabin, as well as fixed chairs and tables.
Xiaolong is too small and it is difficult to tell where he is at first glance.
Li Ming half-knelt down and shone the searchlight downwards.
The dark little guy seemed to want to get into a small corner, but the place was too complicated and he got into a gap created by a metal rod.
Just because the head can get through doesn't mean the body can. Xiaolong successfully got stuck in the middle of the metal pole. Because he changed his posture, Xiaolong's horns successfully got his head stuck as well. He swung his tail in a daze, unable to get out whether forward or backward.
The "dong dong dong" sound just now was the sound of the tender and round little dragon horns colliding with the metal rod.
He supported himself with his two paws to one side, and struggled with his little head like pulling a carrot.
There were a few more bangs.
Finally, he gave up resistance and lay motionless.
Xiao Mumu: I feel dizzy.
Li Ming: ...Puff.
Xiao Mumu: ...QAQ
Li Ming: Cough.
