Chapter 107
After leaving the wasteland, Qi Heng turned on the external stealth function of the aircraft and flew to the location of the Dead Egg Pit.
Nowadays, there are more entrances to the Dead Egg Pit than the first one, but he is used to going through this entrance.
An aircraft that can fly inside a planet is more suitable for him than a hover car. With this aircraft, there is no place on the entire Tianyun Star that he cannot go.
To ensure normal use on Tianyun Star, this aircraft has been enhanced in terms of its signal transmission and reception capabilities. This enhancement allows it to easily connect to extraterrestrial satellites to locate its position. Aside from its relatively high energy consumption, it is practically perfect.
However, Qi Heng does not need to worry about energy consumption for the time being. An astonishing number of high-level energy blocks are stored in Base No. 3 where the aircraft was originally parked. At the current consumption rate, they will not be used up in hundreds of years.
In addition, a lot of high-tech weapons and some technical equipment are also stored inside Base No. 3, but judging from their functions and models, it can be seen that they have been eliminated for a long time.
...These were left behind when the Star Alliance was conducting research and monitoring on Tianyun Star. The useful things had been moved away long ago, and what was left were things that were worthless to the alliance.
However, something that has no value to the Star Alliance can just solve an urgent problem for me now.
The system's [Item Manufacturing] function is to input raw materials to manufacture the required items, but the system itself has the ability to use energy to directly transform an item. In comparison, the transformation saves a lot of energy points.
There is a prerequisite for transformation, which is that there must be something as the basis for the transformation. The closer this thing is to the transformed item, the fewer energy points the transformation will cost.
...Although he and A0 believed that the equipment in Base No. 3 was outdated and should be eliminated, that was from the perspective of the Tianjia civilization, which was at the peak of the sixth-level civilization.
Even if the equipment was inferior, it was still high-tech equipment that only a peak-level 4 civilization could produce. Most 4th-level civilizations didn't have as much equipment as the warehouse at Base 3.
When you feel sleepy, you can get a pillow. These devices can be used as the basis for transformation.
Qi Heng sat in the aircraft, the screen in front of him showing a radar screen constantly scanning the surrounding environment. After confirming that no one else was around, he hovered the aircraft over the dead egg pit, opened the hatch, and jumped down. As he was about to hit the ground, he used his star power to slow his descent.
Four underground floors.
On the platform.
"Are you the only one here?" He was a little surprised to see that Qi Lan was the only worm there.
He originally thought that Chu Xiu should be here at this time.
Qi Lan rubbed against his legs affectionately. To Qi Heng, this action was just like a child acting coquettishly to his parents.
"Ah." I miss my father so much, hug him~
"I don't know where that stupid bastard has gone. Father, you don't know how loud he is." Along with these words came a hint of grievance.
Qi Heng's expression suddenly froze as he listened to Qi Lan's words transmitted through the mental link.
Stupid… what kind of kid? ? ? Who led Qi Lan astray? I haven’t seen him for a few days, how come he’s already swearing?
He lowered his head and looked at Qi Lan.
Qi Lan had consumed a lot of energy ores during this period, but his body shape hadn't changed at all, still the same as when he first woke up. With his lower body lying down, it only reached a little above his knees, and at this time, he was still trying to act coquettishly towards him.
"You can't talk like that." He rubbed Qi Lan's head and taught him, "Bitch, that's not what a good kid should say. Who taught you that?" The last sentence revealed Qi Heng's true thoughts.
Qi Lan tilted his head and said, "My father said that before."
"I know this is a bad word because 'xiongfu' was used as an insult in the past."
Qi Heng recalled carefully and made sure that he had never said this in front of Fatty Chong, whom he treated as a three-year-old child.
"I cursed? When?" He felt that he had a good temper. After all, there were few people who could make him so angry that he would curse.
"A long time ago, my father said, 'That little bastard Ceci wants me dead, so I'll send his whole family to heaven first.'" Qi Lan was obviously trying to imitate him when he said this.
Qi Heng, who had thought it was impossible, hesitated when he heard the name "Sisi". The name sounded a little familiar.
...He remembered.
Sisi is the leader of a Level 2.0 Green Star civilization that I met in the early stages of the game, when Tianjia was at Level 1.9 civilization, after I discovered the "Long-Range Deep Space Exploration" technology.
The star system where the other civilization is located is only 4.2 light-years away from Tianjia. In the vast distance scale of the universe, it can be regarded as a very close neighbor.
Since one civilization has not yet broken through to level 2, and the other has just reached level 2, the only way for them to communicate is to "capture the radio waves of a specific frequency emitted by the other party."
Qi Heng initially held a peaceful attitude towards the first extraterrestrial civilization he encountered in the game - he was not a rebellious person by nature, and he did not play the game with the idea of killing as many people as possible in the game from the beginning.
He initially believed there were two kinds of joy in civilization simulation games: one was peaceful development and farming, leading other civilizations to explore the universe and achieve common prosperity. The other was being a dictator, stepping on the corpses of other civilizations to become the most powerful.
It has to be said that when Qi Heng had not yet made up his mind whether to take the path of the interstellar devil, which sounded very exciting and sour, the betrayal of the Green Star civilization gave him a push.
...Initially, the exchanges between civilizations were beautiful, but due to geographical location, it was difficult for the friendship between two civilizations so close to each other to last.
Not to mention that civilizations require resources to develop, and the higher they progress, the more resources they need. Just to mention that each civilization has a different focus on technology, even lower-level civilizations can bring many benefits to higher-level ones.
At that time, in the Milky Way, there was no "Convention for the Protection of Lower Civilizations" formulated by advanced civilizations. Civilizations were all based on the law of the jungle, and those civilizations that were discovered, not strong enough, and had no backing would not have a good ending.
Qi Heng still remembered the thrill of being stabbed in the back.
——Fortunately, I am used to keeping some tricks up my sleeve, otherwise the Green Star civilization might really destroy my nest.
Of course, the Green Star Civilization was the loser in the end.
As a gamer whose hometown was almost destroyed, Qi Heng decided to destroy the fleet sent by the Green Star Civilization and then began to madly climb the technology.
He believed that if you don't remove the roots of the grass, it will grow again when the spring breeze blows. Being soft on the enemy would be cruel to yourself. When he thought of the population lost and the destroyed space equipment (which had been accumulated for a long time) in the war with the Green Star Civilization, he could not control his murderous intent.
With the original Zerg in his possession, he had no need for slaves and was too lazy to spend time slowly assimilating the then-uncontrollable star system. So, after developing long-distance navigation technology, he led his fleet directly to the star system where the Green Star civilization resided, wiped out all intelligent life on that civilization, and colonized the star system.
It was a massacre of all intelligent creatures of the Green Star civilization. From then on, everything of the Green Star civilization became an exhibit in a museum.
It was from that time that the development of Tianjia civilization changed from peaceful farming to violent military farming. The advancement of technology and the unreasonable evolution of the original Zerg enabled it to defeat all civilizations that wanted to take advantage of it.
As the killing continued, the Tianjia civilization reached its peak.
Qi Heng quickly recalled the past in his mind, but his subordinate patted Qi Lan's head gently and said, "Even if this is the case, you can't curse."
If I asked myself whether I regretted doing so while playing the game, the answer would be definitely no.
Now... now he doesn't have it either. For this universe, that was all 20,000 years ago. Not to mention that the Green Star has been renamed "Sky Mist Star", even the people on Green Star have died. Reviewing it now is a bit like false compassion.
"Oh~" Then I won't say it next time.
He was talking to Qi Lan.
"Father Xiong, give me a hug--" a voice suddenly came.
When Qi Heng heard some movement behind him, he turned around and took a look. He was almost scared to death.
A dwarf cub came up the steps, wobbling along, grinning with joy and shouting as it rushed towards him.
"Father Xiong, I miss you so much..."
He was quick to grab the cub in his arms and only felt relieved after he was sure he had it.
The young bug, who was finally picked up by his father, was not frightened at all and kept giggling in his arms. It was obvious that the young bug had no idea how dangerous his action was. If he hadn't caught it, the final result would definitely be falling on his face.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Can I still run away?" Qi Heng's face showed a bit of helplessness.
Qi Lan is a big one that is not easy to take care of, and the little bug cubs don’t look easy to raise either.
"Oh." Xiong's father, that's him, cries every day, it's really annoying.
Qi Lan, who was lying on the ground without a hug, became unhappy when he saw this scene. He complained on the side and secretly hoped that Xiong's father would throw the insect cub down.
"I didn't." The insect cub lying in the male father's arms bared its teeth at Qi Lan.
Qi Heng was not surprised that the insect cub could hear Qi Lan's words.
Although it has only been less than half a month, I don’t know if it had a mental connection with Qi Lan when it was in the egg. The insect cub is very talented in communicating with mental power.
"You did, and you cried like an ugly idiot, with tears and snot all over your face."
"It's so dirty." Qi Lan said as he flicked his tail impatiently.
This behavior was roughly equivalent to rolling one's eyes, and the insect cub lying on him didn't know whether it was angry or embarrassed. Its whole face turned red, and it opened its mouth but couldn't utter a word.
Qi Heng had a headache. He couldn't let them continue like this. If they continued, they would start quarreling.
"You can't talk about your brother like that." Chongzai is younger than Qi Lan, so it's not wrong to call him that.
He didn't know how to comfort the child, so he could only use the tried-and-true method of patting the back and asked in a concerned tone, "Why are you crying?"
The bug cub lowered his head and spoke very quietly. If Qi Heng hadn't been close to him, he wouldn't have been able to hear clearly.
"The male father is gone...I don't want the female father to leave. I don't want to be alone."
Qi Heng was silent. It seemed that he was to blame.
Given Chu Xiu's sense of responsibility and professionalism, it's not surprising that he would prioritize his own assigned tasks after the insect cubs are taken care of and their safety is guaranteed.
Seeing the depressed look on Chongzi's face, he slowed down his voice and said to him, "You still have your brother to accompany you."
"He just eats and ignores me."
"Father Xiong, can you please accompany me?" Chongzi grabbed his collar and looked up at him, his obsidian eyes filled with anxiety. "If not, I can follow Father Xiong."
Qi Heng was silent. It was not that he didn't want to agree, but that he couldn't agree.
...It's inconvenient to run around with a child. He knew Chu Xiu probably thought the same, so he didn't bring the insect cub with him.
He was abandoned at home as a left-behind child just a few days after he was born. If this happened before I traveled through time, it would make me want to curse at the irresponsible parents who could do such a thing as abandoning their own child, which deserves to be struck by lightning.
In fact, they are similar to left-behind children. There are more than just the insect cubs in front of us who are pulling at their clothes and are afraid of being left behind.
In Area 49, Yan Le, the female insect cub who was placed in the nursery because Yan Ning "disappeared" and he was unable to take care of her, also looked reluctant when he was about to leave last time.
His silence let the bug know what he was thinking, and he lowered his head in disappointment.
The baby bug's forehead rested against his chest, and a soft, nasal voice came slowly from his arms. It was unclear whether he was comforting him or himself.
"It's okay, I can play alone. You can wait until my father has time to play with me."
Qi Heng couldn't see the expression on the Zerg's face, but he could tell how depressed the Zerg was at the moment. He just didn't know how to comfort them... He couldn't promise something he couldn't do.
At this moment, Qi Lan let out an "Ao" and his words immediately attracted the attention of the insect cub.
"——I don't know how to eat, I just don't want to play with you, it's so childish."
The bug boy raised his head, his eyes red like a rabbit's, staring at Qi Lan and said angrily: "I'm not childish!"
"Eat, eat, eat. You'll keep eating. Sooner or later, you'll turn into a big fat worm."
Qi Lan, who hated the word "fat" the most because of his past body shape, felt like a bug whose tail hair had been stepped on, and his whole body jumped.
"Don't you dare say that! Apologize now!"
As soon as the bug boy said this, he knew he had said the wrong thing. He knew that his 'brother' hated being said that the most... but he was too embarrassed to apologize at this time, so he could only stiffen his neck and act as if he would never say a word.
"I don't want it."
Qi Heng hit Chongzi on the back of his head, not hard, but more to show his disapproval. "Brother, for work, you can't say that. Apologize now."
Qi Heng hit Chongzi on the back of his head, not hard, but more to show his disapproval. "Brother, for work, you can't say that. Apologize now."
"My father said so, I will listen to him." The cub heaved a sigh of relief and looked at Qi Lan and said "I'm sorry" honestly.
Looking at this scene of brothers being friendly and respectful to each other, Qi Heng heard a sentence before he had time to sigh.
"Father Xiong, I can help too - eat." The insect cub pointed at the pile of ore, looking like he was eager to help.
Qi Heng's mouth twitched, and he said with a somewhat awkward smile: "You can't help me with this."
...He was not afraid that the bug cub would chew on the ore and break its teeth. After all, with the little bug cub's teeth and strength, it could only make a teething stick.

The author has something to say: I didn’t get much rest in the past few days. I stayed up all night for two nights, so I still felt very tired after waking up. qwq
