Because Chen Ming was busy with various needs, his spirits and energy seemed to be much better than before.

However, his habit remained unchanged. After boarding the ship, he immediately ran to the captain's room, sat down on a chair, crossed his legs and asked, "Xiao Ming, what's the matter this time?"

Chen Ming didn't rush to explain the matter, but said: "No hurry, let me tell you the bad news first."

"I'm about to leave my original position and go to a galaxy within a galaxy. I can't change Yu Hui's sudden arrangement. Please help me send this message out, so that the company won't be disappointed."

"Because of this, I might be a little short of time later, so I'm going to take advantage of this last bit of time now to try out some new things."

"oh."

Old Wu nodded and asked, "You said Yu Hui was going to send you to a new place? Where is it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Old Wu saw a star map displayed on the control panel in front of him, with a galaxy marked on it.

"Here? Okay, but why did they suddenly change your location?"

Chen Ming responded: "It's not that sudden. It's a matter of time."

"The place I was at before was just where Yu Hui temporarily placed me. They will definitely send me to a place with tighter security and more technical equipment."

"I've thought about it before, but I still feel a little reluctant at this moment."

Old Wu asked doubtfully, "What is there to be reluctant about?"

"I'm a little reluctant to give up the technology, materials, and environment. Yu Hui gave me two tachyon spears for experiments, and more than that. To be honest, I feel a little embarrassed for cheating Yu Hui too much."

"The Tachyon Spear... that's really cool, but I heard you blew up a mining site in Afterglow? You call that embarrassing?"

"I can't say that. I still felt sad when I was in trouble."

Old Wu said casually: "What's so sad about this?"

"It's been so many years since Yu Hui defected from humanity. How many people have died in the wars every year?"

"If you're talking about other people who are far away but don't count, then what about the people who are close to you? Didn't you encounter two afterglow attacks a while ago? They didn't show mercy to you back then, and you were almost killed."

"You're not sad at all."

"Too."

Old Wu, who thought Chen Ming was just talking nonsense, suddenly seemed to realize something was wrong and asked quickly, "Are you serious? Do you really feel this way?"

Chen Ming did not lie and said honestly: "Yes, a little."

"Good man, you are being PUA, you are just being given some benefits and you are like this? Wait, how old are you?"

"Twenty-five."

"That's what I said."

Old Wu suddenly said in an air of maturity, "Xiao Ming, you are still too young and have little experience. From what I saw in your resume before, it seems that you studied hard and worked hard all the way to be promoted to that position... It should be the maintenance team leader, right?"

"right."

"So, if you were more knowledgeable about the ways of the world, learned a little flattery, read people's expressions, and had the ability to set traps for your colleagues, wouldn't your skills have been upgraded long ago? Why are you still a small team leader here?"

"Are you still upset because you cheated Yu Hui? What are you thinking?"

"You should know that Yu Hui is very smart. They will make a lot of money if you have this idea in mind."

"If they treat you better in the future, will you still feel bad? If you keep feeling bad, one day you won't want to cheat them anymore, and that would be terrible, wouldn't it?"

Chen Ming thought about it carefully and found that it was just as Old Wu said.

Of course, Chen Ming was not referring to the bunch of “little tricks” in the workplace that Lao Wu mentioned.

Even though Chen Ming could definitely learn these things if he wanted to, he didn't really want to learn them. There was no special reason, he just didn't want to.

And he also had a feeling that if he really learned it, his interpersonal relationships would be quite different from what they are now.

So Chen Ming simply skipped over what Old Wu said. The focus was on what Old Wu said about Yu Hui's behavior, and the background that Yu Hui himself would inevitably conflict with Chen Ming, a human being.

The conflict between Yu Hui and humans has been going on for a long time, and it is definitely not something that Chen Ming can alleviate through normal communication with Yu Hui.

But there is a way to resolve the conflict between Yuhui and humans, but this method is more difficult.

So even if Chen Ming is doing this to a certain extent now, he cannot guarantee that he can do it.

But after Old Wu said this, Chen Ming suddenly became even more confused. What did Huihuang mean by those words? Who did Huihuang believe in? And what? Forget it.

At least Old Wu's words made Chen Ming completely let go of the psychological barriers that suddenly popped up in his heart, and he could continue to trick Yu Hui without any burden.

After Old Wu reminded him, he didn't say much and continued to ask along the lines of what Chen Ming had just said, "So what are you trying this time? You asked me to come here, most likely because of your psychic power?"

"Almost, but not only that. You can put the experiment aside for now. I have something else to tell you."

"About my fleet and the pirates."

The prototype of Chen Ming’s current fleet has been constructed.

The two Centurions that he had asked Lao Wu to help buy were already parked at the pirate space station.

Chen Ming had found an opportunity to send Baoyu and Fighter Kai back here a few days ago.

There is another refractive ship that is also on its way back home.

According to Chen Ming's previous arrangements, the refraction was already in hundreds of galaxies within an area with a diameter of fifty light years outside the buffer zone of the Afterglow Mechanical Clan.

Based on the possibility of the existence of habitable planets on stars, most galaxies were searched.

After a simple scan, only a very small number of valuable galaxies were confirmed.

There are only six in total.

There are planets with life inside both galaxies.

One of them is a habitable planet, while the other has a toxic atmosphere and is not habitable, but the presence of life on it is valuable enough.

As for the other four galaxies, three of them have open-pit mineral veins discovered by refraction on the surfaces of planets within the galaxies, and they are all high-value mineral veins such as tungsten, titanium, nickel, and cobalt.

And the last one is very special.

It is also a habitable planet and has no toxic components in its atmosphere.

But there were some things on it, similar to the mechanical mind pulse generators that Chen Ming had seen before, some mechanical-style buildings.

And they are not relics, but were still intact when Refraction discovered them, and are most likely dormant devices.

Chen Ming was not sure whether there were any mechanical people in these buildings, but he did not let Du Guang get too close. He just recorded it and would investigate it later.

Of course, these valuable galaxies are just the results obtained after a simple refractive scan. There must be more things in these galaxies than what Chen Ming scanned. There must be other things.

Chen Ming also did not scan those gas or ice giant planets because they were too dangerous.

So when Chen Ming has an exploration ship with detailed scanning capabilities, he should be able to go back and take a look. He should be able to find more valuable planets.

Of course it’s definitely not possible now, and the results of scanning the planet have nothing to do with Lao Wu.

Now the important point is that the refraction has come back after the scan has been done.

Moreover, Chen Ming had previously obtained a spaceship identification code for Qu Guang through the factory director, so that he could operate normally within the empire. Of course, Qu Guang's weapons made it difficult for him to enter the prosperous star field.

But the prosperous star field obviously could not compare with the marginal star field in terms of the number of pirates, and Chen Ming had no intention of going there.

In short, Chen Ming now has five ships, which can be called a small fleet.

Now that he has a fleet, he will naturally go looking for trouble with the pirates.

After Old Wu learned of Chen Ming's purpose, he immediately reacted and said, "Pirates, you told me about this before, and I checked it for you."

"But the pirates are all alive. If the time interval is too long, no one knows where they have gone. If you need me, I can immediately help you find all the bounties nearby."

"Okay, I'll tell you now. It should be in the next few days."

It just so happens that it will take time for Du Guang to return, so Chen Ming is not in a hurry.

He believed that Old Wu would help him find the pirates.

So another thing.

"An experiment on abilities... Let's go outside. This experiment cannot be done without other people."

Old Wu stood up, stretched his arms and legs, and stepped down from the sentry post.

Chen Ming switched his perspective to the Stormy ship parked nearby and viewed the Sentinel through the Stormy ship's camera.

Chen Ming's eyes first swept around the surroundings. He could see that around the corner of the repair shop where his several ships were parked, there was an extra layer of partition separating this place from other areas of the repair shop that could be rented out.

I don’t know whether it was the factory manager or other people in the company who thought so.

Chen Ming looked at it twice more, then looked away.

At the same time, the sentinel's panel and the dim panel that Chen Ming had placed in the dark cemetery for a long time were opened.

A few days ago, Chen Ming had finished reading the technical books given by Yu Hui that used Weiguang as a teaching blueprint. In addition to learning those techniques, he also mastered Weiguang's blueprint.

As long as Chen Ming is given enough equipment and materials, he can build a new micro-light on the spot.

So Chen Ming decided to give it a try.

Not through equipment of course, but through his panel capabilities.

Although Chen Ming consumed his mental energy due to high-intensity work every day during this period, he was also relying on the Falsehood Stone to train his mental energy. His mental energy increased again, and the number of controllable spaceships on the panel increased to 4.

But the manufacturing function still does not appear on the panel.

Therefore, Chen Ming’s idea was to find a different approach.

At the risk of losing a Glimmer, the Sentinel can be transformed into a Glimmer through the transformation function.

Chen Ming can fully afford this loss.

And this idea is feasible.

As Chen Ming's study of various technologies deepened, many things that were not there before gradually appeared on the modified panel.

Chen Ming can now modify the entire spacecraft.

From the cabins and sections of the spacecraft to the details in every corner of the spacecraft, and even the angle of a certain section of the radiation energy pipe, Chen Ming can make modifications.

After Chen Ming transformed all parts of a ship into the shape of the Afterglow spaceship.

This ship is the Afterglow ship.

After Old Wu moved a little distance away from the sentry, Chen Ming started.

He first disassembled the glimmer that had hardly been used since it was acquired, and turned it into neat materials.

And under his active control, it appeared in the storage compartment of the mule parked in the repair shop.

These materials did not stay for too long. They soon turned into liquid and aggregated together, seeping out of the ship, flowing past Old Wu's feet, and flowing towards the sentry.

Seeing this, Old Wu squatted down and reached out to scoop up a handful of it, but the metallic liquid slipped away from his hands in an instant like weightless water.

These liquids completely enveloped the sentinel, and the sentinel's own structure was completely squeezed out and piled up beside it.

This transformation lasted about thirty seconds, which was much faster than the five minutes Chen Ming had pretended to take in front of Yu Hui.

However, it still took longer than Chen Ming had expected, but fortunately the consumption of mental energy was still within his acceptable range.

After the metal liquid completely solidified, only a faint light remained.

When Old Wu saw the spaceship change its appearance in an instant, he couldn't help but opened his mouth and said, "This is..."

"This is an attempt to use my psychic transformation ability, and the effect seems to be quite good. However, there are limitations. It must be a spaceship that I have learned to build myself."

"Any boat will do?"

"My goodness, this is getting more and more perverted."

Although the Zhaosu Weiguang did not look anything special after Chen Ming's transformation, it was just like two spaceships of the same level had swapped positions.

But the effectiveness of an ability is not just about whether the result of the transformation is useful or not.

Chen Ming's ability means that as long as he learns from Yu Hui, he can continue to send Yu Hui's technology back to him over a long distance in this way.

In other application scenarios, such as during combat or when approaching a combat, it can also be used to replace more suitable warships.

At the same time, replacing the spacecraft also has a certain degree of repair function.

Although it is not as good as the genuine restoration, it is more functional than the restoration.

Or, as long as Chen Ming is given a batch of the most basic spacecraft frames and enough materials, he alone will have extremely terrifying productivity.

Of course, you also have to ensure that your mental strength can hold up.

After asking Chen Ming and confirming that Chen Ming had finished, Old Wu stepped forward and touched the faint light.

After personally confirming the existence of this glimmer of light, an expression of uncontrollable shock once again appeared on his face.

At this time, it was not only Old Wu who could see this scene.

Several surveillance cameras in the maintenance plant, especially the surveillance of Chen Ming's spacecraft, are manned 24 hours a day.

So when Lao Wu and Wei Guang made a move, several people on the company's board of directors were also paying attention.

After watching the entire process of the sentinel turning into a faint light, a director asked the chairman in the private communication channel of the board members: "Should the plan continue? It seems that Chen Ming staying with Yu Hui can bring us more benefits."

The chairman did not hesitate and said directly: "My opinion is to continue the execution. With such ability, Yu Hui can only be used as a spy, but if he comes back, there will definitely be more than what we have seen now."

"Look at that spaceship, it's afterglow's twilight class."

"Although we have obtained enough blueprints, there are still many problems to be solved if we want to actually manufacture it."

"And Chen Ming did it."

"How long has it been? Even if you just memorize the blueprints for the Afterglow Spacecraft, I'll give you more than half a month. Is that enough?"

The director who asked the question shut up.

The chairman continued, "So we have to save Chen Ming. We don't need him to steal technology from Yu Hui. We just need him to come back and help us develop technology."

"So I wonder if we need to agree to the Fourteenth Legion's request."

"Is there anyone who doesn't know that the Fourteenth Legion is seeking cooperation with us recently?"

The director who was previously in charge of handling military-related matters was also a member of the team watching the real-time monitoring of the repair plant. After the chairman finished speaking, he immediately said, "I think it's okay."

"It seems that the Fourteenth Legion has follow-up support on the way, so they are not relying solely on us to do things."

"It is said that although they have gained a certain advantage on the front line, their strategic goals seem to have not been achieved."

"They're going to invest a little more here to remedy that."

The chairman added: "So I think we can agree to the military's request for fleet assistance, and we can also release some of the material supply."

At this time, a director suddenly poured cold water on the company and said, "What about our Sky Steel?"

The chairman immediately responded, "The 14th Corps has shown signs of loosening up. We can agree to a small part of it first and see if they will continue to loosen up."

"So do we need to change our action plan for Yu Hui?"

The chairman thought for a moment and said, "The army told us the rough plan before. They said that after finding out Chen Ming's position, they would launch a surprise attack."

"Take advantage of the opportunity of Yuhui rescuing Chen Ming to attract their attention. When the Yuhui fleet is attracted, use the jump engine to jump directly to their core, which is the location of Kletka."

"Catch the leader first, and kill this piece of afterglow completely with one blow."

Before the chairman could express his thoughts, a director immediately said, "This is too dangerous. And does the Legion know where Kletka is?"

The chairman knew this very well: "They don't know, so they keep arguing with us, hoping to get the way to contact Chen Ming from us."

"It's hard for us to contact each other right now. Chen Ming has obviously lost some of his trust in us because of what happened last time."

"If I contact him rashly, I'm really worried that Chen Ming will turn around and completely join Yu Hui."

"The pressure that people in Yuhui's place have to bear is beyond our imagination."

"If we take the initiative to contact him again and put external pressure on him, it would not be surprising if he did something as a result."

"Unless there is an emergency, try to maintain the status quo of indirect communication. This will also help us to have a say in the joint meeting."

"And the military's plan doesn't really do us much good."

"If we can eliminate the afterglow, we can be the first group of people to open up the territory, but people from other places will pounce on us like sharks smelling blood."

"If we lose too much in the early stages, even if we have the first mover advantage, we may not be able to reap enough benefits, and it may even make us lose our competitiveness in the future."

"So we will not participate in the subsequent raids. We are only responsible for rescuing Chen Ming."

The chairman took a sip of water and continued, "If the plan can proceed smoothly as originally planned, I will take the initiative to undertake the tasks of rescue and attracting attention at the meeting, so that the Fourteenth Army can have the ability to raid Yu Hui's hometown on its own."

"And our ships are big enough for us to force our way into the galaxy where Chen Ming is now and attract enough afterglow."

"That's it. I'll bring it up at the next formal board meeting. If you have any opinions, please raise them now."

The chairman waited quietly for the other directors to speak.

However, what he didn't expect was that another director joined the communication channel.

And he is the director who is usually in charge of various pirate space stations.

The director immediately said in a very urgent tone after joining the communication channel: "I suddenly received an urgent message from the person in charge of the space station."

"Wu Ping'an contacted me and said that Chen Ming would soon be transferred to a new place by Yu Hui."

"where?"

"I sent the star map here."

The communication channel was silent for a while, and the chairman was the first to speak: "It seems that our previous guess was wrong. Yu Hui did not put Chen Ming in the final position from the beginning."

"It's that they have been preparing until today."

"Fortunately, we have considered this aspect before, but the plan must be changed."

The chairman looked at the director in charge of military affairs and said, "Go and notify the legion. The meeting has to be reopened."

Just when Xinda Company was about to get busy with the joint meeting.

Chen Ming was packing his things in the factory at Yuhui Colony.

There aren’t many things, and Chen Ming can use his spiritual power to send the materials to the repair shop for storage.

The only trouble for Chen Ming now is the sixty-three escape pods.

However, just when Chen Ming was struggling, Huihuang got Chen Ming a Buffalo-class cargo ship.

Looking at the fresh damage on it, it was probably caused by Yuhui and his friends' recent conflict with humans.

Chen Ming must have gladly accepted this. Anyway, everyone on the ship was definitely dead, so it was sheer stupidity for him not to accept it.

It was just that Chen Ming loaded all the things he needed to take away onto the buffalo.

Huihuang suddenly said to Chen Ming: "Urgent notice, Mr. Chen, you must leave here today."

"Now?"

"Yes."

Chen Ming was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why?"

"No reason."

Chen Ming's mind was suddenly filled with doubts.

Yu Hui just gave Chen Ming some time to clean up slowly.

Why are you so anxious all of a sudden? Is there some unexpected situation?

Or is there a spy for Yu Hui among humans? Several thoughts flashed through Chen Ming's mind.

But all these speculations were quickly ruled out.

How long had it been since Chen Ming told Lao Wu that he was going to be transferred? How many people had the news spread to? If even the people who contacted Lao Wu's company might be spies, then Xinda Company might as well go bankrupt.

So it must be some other reason.

But Chen Ming now has no idea why.

He could only hurriedly pack up some of the tools he usually used in the factory control room and board the Iron Ore.

With the newly acquired buffalo, following the guidance of glory, he arrived in space.

Incorporated into Yuhui's fleet.

The Brilliant-class cruiser controlled by Brilliant was waiting for him here.

In addition, there is also a Yuhui-class heavy unmanned cruiser in the fleet.

Chen Ming had no complaints about the treatment as he was escorted by a fleet of over a hundred ships consisting of two cruisers.

There was no chance for him to escape, nor any chance for anyone to rescue him.

However, it may be too late for rescue now, unless the company has been prepared and happens to come here today.

Otherwise it will be completely too late.

But in the end, the situation that flashed through Chen Ming's mind did not occur.

Even after the jump engines of Brilliance and Refraction were activated, no human ships appeared.

Chen Ming felt a little regretful in his heart, but at this point he no longer cared.

He no longer expected anyone else to save him.

After he was sent away, the difficulty for both the company and other forces to contact and rescue him would increase significantly.

The current situation only made Chen Ming more determined to rely on himself.

Even if he was taken deep into Yuhui's territory, he would definitely find a way to leave in the future.

The jump engine allowed Chen Ming to quickly reach a new galaxy.

Just as Chen Ming was about to observe the situation inside the galaxy.

Chen Ming suddenly discovered that Old Wu was actively touching the glimmer that he had transformed.

After noticing that the camera outside the Weiguang moved, he spread his hands helplessly and pointed at the terminal in his hand.

A video communication is ongoing on the terminal.

The scene on the other side was very familiar to Chen Ming; it was the factory director's office.

But there are three people in the office.

In addition to the factory manager, there were two other people Chen Ming did not know who were also in the video call.

One was wearing a uniform that only the top executives of Sinda Corporation would wear, while the other was wearing the uniform of the Fourteenth Legion.
