Chapter 33: Thirty-three Nights
The Unjust Young Master Qiao Mai
As far as Qiao Mai knows, he has always been lucky since he was a child. It was so lucky that if he accidentally heard others discussing a question one day, he would find that question on the test the next day. He would always get a second bottle of functional drink when he opened it, and he would always get the best-tasting tube of blind box nutrient solution.
He thought his good luck would last forever, but it turned out that he was just hanging out with his classmates. He even started a live broadcast to interact with his fans. Who would have thought that the moment before he was touring the interior of his friend's new starship and introducing to his fans the latest technologies of the Empire, an accident happened.
It seems that his friends, who can be called the dudes of the capital, have too little homework, which is why they have sudden ideas. When they encounter a sudden warp rift, the first thing they think of is not to turn around and run, but to go exploring.
This kind of scene is rare to come across.
Before Qiao Mai could stop him, his friend rushed over in the starship.
This guy, no matter how lucky he is, can't stop someone from committing suicide. Although he doesn't want to die, he can't stop his friend from committing suicide, right?
Warp rifts are rare. They are a major explosion in interstellar flight. The spatial disturbance that occurs after the warp channel is opened is like a small whirlpool in the ocean. They appear from time to time in various places. The main warp routes of the interstellar empire and the alliance are stabilized and maintained by special equipment, so it is rare to encounter small whirlpool-like spatial disturbances. However, they are very common in other places.
Just like what Yun Wanwan's original body encountered, and sometimes the situation Kane encountered when fighting Wu Yan, they were all caused by the difficulty of movement, which led to the jump rift. As for why the landing points were all unified in the Y4162 star field, it was probably because under the influence of the plot, the space magnetic field of the entire Y4162 star field had problems.
Qiao Mai felt that although his friends were unreliable and even dared to enter the warp rift when they were crazy, the quality of this newly purchased starship was really good. It plunged into the warp rift, became dizzy, and then dived out, but it was still intact.
All of them fell all over the place, but they didn't seem to be hurt. After looking at each other, they all laughed wildly.
Qiao Mai, who had not yet recovered from his daze, was awakened by a series of system prompts. He looked down and found that the most amazing thing today was that after passing through the jump rift, his live broadcast was not interrupted. It was just that there was a problem with the external mode, and now it was a black screen. Fans were crazy about contacting Qiao Mai.
Qiao Mai's family is wealthy, one of the richest in the Fiklan Empire. As the youngest child, he was spoiled and raised without any pressure. He just loves to play, and as long as he doesn't cause trouble, his family will let him do what he wants. He usually likes to livestream and show his fans around. Because his family is wealthy and he lives in a luxurious environment, many fans enjoy watching him show off his wealth in a low-key manner. Qiao Mai has a large following.
This incident was so sudden that even Qiao Mai himself did not expect it, and his fans did not expect that they would just be looking at the internal structure of the new starship and then turn around and perform a live time travel for them.
Warp rift, is it easy to enter?
If you're lucky, you can get out, but if you're unlucky, you'll be directly disassembled into elemental molecules in the warp rift. And even if you can fly out safely, with the randomness of the warp rift, who knows where you will be teleported to?
"They're all a bunch of rich second-generations and official second-generations, and quite a few of them are from the aristocratic circle. We usually risk our lives to earn a living, but they risk their lives purely for fun!"
"It's hard to say. These young people are just not afraid of death."
"What do you mean by not fearing death? If they were really sent to the front lines, I'd guess they'd cry more miserably than the other."
"Oh, why bother with them? What's wrong with the signal? Can it ever be fixed?"
"The young anchor was terrified. He thought he was just going out for a stroll, but ended up getting nearly sent away by his awful teammates."
"Don't you think it's strange? The signal hasn't been cut off yet. Even though it's not displayed, the signal is there."
“The live broadcast room is still there.”
"Can anyone of you contact them? Let's get the military involved and bring them back first. We can then figure out how to deal with these naughty kids."
"Is this even possible?! What's going on with this live stream?!"
"Is the anchor still alive?!"
"That's hard to say. Tsk, Qiao Mai is the young master of that family, right? If something happens to him, it will be a big deal."
Whenever Qiao Mai starts a live broadcast, he will close the speaking rights of his fans, otherwise the room will be noisy and only sporadic comments will appear in the barrage, and those are all old fans who have been waiting in his room for a long time.
Qiao Mai tapped the computer and found no hardware damage. The black screen was probably a signal problem. But the signal was still there—Qiao Mai's computer was also top-notch. After a little tinkering, it was back to normal.
Looking at the chaotic barrage of comments, Qiao Mai rubbed his head helplessly: "I'm fine, I'm still alive! Don't make trouble and alert the military or anything like that, we won't end up well."
There was a sudden burst of joy on the barrage:
"Young Master, you still know that there's no good outcome! And do you know that even if we don't report it to the military, your live broadcast room is under Star Network surveillance. After this dangerous behavior is rated, uploading will be directly restricted!"
Qiao Mai: “Yes.”
"The young master's confused look is so funny."
"Obviously stupid."
"Yeah, yeah, silly and sweet."
"Young Master, you should first check where you are. If you are too far away from the Imperial Capital's Central Star, even if your little starship is advanced, you won't be able to return, right? You will still have to contact the rescue team when the time comes."
The distance from the planned star field is too far. Qiao Mai and his crew's small starship, which can only navigate within the star field, is not equipped with instruments and energy to open the jump channel, so it is impossible to complete the long-distance flight.
At that time, you can only cry and shout for help.
Qiao Mai also realized this and immediately looked up to remind his friend who was still showing off, "Isaac, where are we now!"
Isaac is the owner of this starship. He just got the latest starship from home and showed it off to his friends. He called his friends out for a stroll and was even more of a weirdo who got so excited that he dared to rush into the warp rift.
Isaac was still a little dizzy and his face didn't look very good. "Where else can it be? Aren't we all in the starship?"
"Oh, let's quickly locate it. If it's too far away, we might not be able to get back."
After hearing what Qiao Mai said, they also realized that Chong had rushed through the jump rift, and then what?
Then how do they get back?
A bucket of cold water was immediately poured over my heated head. "Yes, yes, yes, quickly locate it. Hiss, I'm dizzy."
"I still have a headache! And I bumped my arm!"
"You're just delicate!"
"Okay, it's pitch black here and it's not nice at all. Let's figure out how to get home first, shall we?"
"Ahhhhh! I already have a feeling how badly I'm going to be beaten when I get home! No! Isaac, you have to save me!"
"Woooa ...
"Okay, all of you shut up!" Isaac was also having a headache. "Qiao Mai, come over and take a look at this star map. Is there anything wrong?"
After Isaac restored the starship system function, the first thing he did was to confirm his position. However, looking at the star map that appeared on the system screen, he was confused. This coordinate was completely beyond his knowledge.
Among this group of playboys known to the world, perhaps only Qiao Mai has some real talent and knowledge, so he should be able to see the location of this coordinate?
Qiao Mai also leaned over to take a look. The location evaluation given by the system was just a string of very unfamiliar numbers, Y4162 star field.
Qiao Mai: "..." With his limited knowledge, he didn't know where this location was.
However, from this purely numerical numbering, one can infer from the star map's barren and backward constellations that "this is probably a marginal star without even a formal name. The main star is probably the Y4162 star field, and the other companion stars probably don't even have names..."
What Qiao Mai said was already very tactful. The so-called marginal planets are mostly forgotten garbage planets. Maybe they had rich mineral resources in the beginning, but after the resources were mined and exhausted, they became large factories for processing garbage.
They actually ended up here. You have to know that this kind of place doesn't even have regular flight routes, let alone a stable jump space. With the small size of their starship, it is impossible for them to return to a place with a starport where they can land.
"I guess we really need help..."
Everyone: "Hiss."
While everyone was in a panic, Qiao Mai was looking at his live broadcast room in a daze, muttering, "There's actually a Star Network in a place like this...?"
Fans in the live broadcast room were also discussing enthusiastically:
"Y4162 Star Region? Is there such a place in the Empire?"
"Of course there are. There are quite a few such places, but the number of this star field is really too far back."
"Hey, I found some interesting information. Not long ago, the Y4162 star field was a garbage disposal site owned by the Far Ocean Company. Then it was acquired by a mysterious person and is now a private property."
"A mysterious person? What kind of mysterious person is so rich that he can buy this kind of junk planet from the Far Ocean Company? Central Garden is no longer fun, so he has to come to this desolate place to buy such a place. And a mysterious person? There is no information about him on the Star Network?"
"Of course there is. This situation is definitely too high-level for ordinary people like us to find out. As for those who can see it, I guess they wouldn't dare to speak after seeing that name?"
"The one upstairs is right."
Of course, someone had discovered the person who had recently purchased the junk star field: His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Fiklan Empire. But could they disclose this information? His Royal Highness had kept it a secret from the public, and those who had the authority to know would at least consider the consequences of leaking the information.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not seal this up completely and not allow anyone to know about it. He must have wanted to use this method to warn those who wanted to investigate, right?
Those who thought they had noticed the Crown Prince's good intentions nodded silently and remained silent on the matter. However, in the upper circles, almost everyone who should know knew.
After all, before this, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had been out of the public eye for such a long time, and it was said that he was on vacation in this Y4162 star field!
Let’s put these aside for now. Isaac’s communication system was affected by the jump rift and has not yet fully recovered. It was discovered that the energy of the starship was almost exhausted during the jump. If it continues to float in the starry sky, it is hard to say what it will encounter.
"Let's make an emergency landing on the main planet first. Since it's a star region with an owner, we should pay it a visit."
Qiao Mai: Asking for help is asking for help, but you call it a visit, tsk.
