Chapter 20
Sensing a faint hint of danger, Chen Xi wisely decided not to pursue the matter of the black-haired Jin Yi any further. After all, the person in front of her was also Jin Yi, and it didn't seem worth it to anger him.
So Chenxi blinked, reached out and gently tugged at the hem of the person next to her, and said softly, "I'm sleepy, come and sleep with me?"
In just one second, Chenxi managed to appease Jin Yi and then happily continued to enjoy the trip.
Still immersed in the novelty of the starships, Chenxi didn't notice that their massive starship fleet slowed down in space after leaving the base. Compared to the normal speed of starships, it was like a snail crawling. Clearly, the entity that had initially planned to speed up this journey was not in a hurry to go to outer space.
In fact, taking Chenxi to outer space is no small matter. As the only human in the entire universe, Chenxi's every move affects the hearts of the entire machine race, and the issue of Chenxi's safety is of paramount importance.
Therefore, even though Jin Yi had already conveyed the message to all the machine races in the outer universe and made various corresponding arrangements, Jin Yi still did not mind slowing down to give his fellow races in the outer universe more time to prepare.
The preparations included stronger security and vigilance in the outer universe, the arrangement of Chenxi's living arrangements in the outer universe, the investigation of the places to visit, and the intelligent life in the outer universe that Chenxi was very interested in.
Actually, there was an even simpler way to let Chenxi see intelligent life from outside the universe: the dozen or so Star Clan members who stole Chenxi from Earth. However, after much consideration, Jin Yi rejected this option.
The identities of those Star Clan members and how they appeared on Earth were all investigated afterward. Those Star Clan members were a group of space pirates with some notoriety in the outer universe. Relying on an extremely rare mutated star beast, they had raided the treasure vaults of many races in the outer universe, making each race hate them to the core. However, because of the strangeness of that mutated star beast, no one was ever able to capture them.
The reason that group of space pirates were able to sneak into Earth and steal Chenxi's liquid nitrogen tank in such an astonishing way was not because they were really so powerful that they could infiltrate the inner universe and sneak all the way to Earth. Rather, they were accidentally caught in a spatial rift in space and were thrown directly to the vicinity of Earth.
So it was all a coincidence, an incredibly coincidental coincidence, with a probability of less than one in a billion.
Of course, they also strengthened the defenses around Earth afterward, especially in space exploration, to ensure that such a thing would never happen again.
The reason Jin Yi was unwilling to let those dozen or so Star tribe members contact Chen Xi was because of their identities. In Jin Yi's eyes, those dozen or so Star tribe members were all criminals who were not well-behaved and were not qualified.
Humans are the creators of the machine race, and now that there's only one human left in the entire universe, Chenxi's status is extremely high in the eyes of all the machine races. Their machine race has now occupied vast star systems in that outer universe, and within their sphere of influence are numerous intelligent races from other universes. Although they don't usually interfere with those intelligent races, only imposing necessary restrictions and observations to ensure biodiversity, the machine race is indeed the ruler of those intelligent races.
As the ruler of those intelligent races, Chen Xi, who now holds a very high and important position in their eyes, wanted to meet those intelligent races. Of course, Jin Yi didn't want to let just anyone come and make contact with him; at the very least, those crude and fierce space pirates were definitely out of the question.
Even if Chen Xi wanted to make contact with those intelligent races, the candidates had to be carefully selected. At the very least, they had to meet the standards of having a qualified identity, a clean background, and some manners and knowledge.
...
The news that Chenxi was about to go to outer space caused a stir on the Star Network, especially among the machine race in outer space. They were already feeling down because they were separated from Chenxi by a universe, but when Chenxi arrived at the Sky Screen Base, he actually showed up! The little human boy deliberately pressed himself against the window of the spacecraft and waved to the outside, which was a devastating blow to all the machine race. He was just too cute!
That short video was so captivating that all the machine races watched it a thousand times a day, and the machine races in the outer universe became even more envious of their counterparts in the inner universe, especially those who were at the Sky Screen Base.
They originally thought they would have to wait until the long mission period was over to get closer to the human boy Chenxi, but they never expected that Chenxi would actually come to outer space!
Excitement is not enough to describe the feelings of all the machine races in outer space at this moment.
However, after the initial excitement, all the machine races in the outer universe became even more vigilant, because they knew that Chenxi's arrival in the outer universe was not only a happy event for them, but also represented a responsibility. They had to ensure Chenxi's safety to the fullest extent, and at the same time, make sure Chenxi had a pleasant and comfortable journey.
At this moment, the instructions and tasks that Jin Yi conveyed made them very agreeable and satisfied. Well, although the mainframe was a bit of a jerk in its daily routine, it was very thoughtful when it came to doing practical things!
And so, all the machine races in the outer universe began to act one by one according to Jin Yi's instructions.
Some machine races rapidly constructed various facilities and buildings needed by humans on the selected planets, some machine races rigorously inspected flight paths, and some machine races screened out suitable tourist attractions in outer space and checked for dangers one by one. Then, all the remaining machine races strengthened the management and security of all the occupied star systems.
The atmosphere of outer space has quietly changed.
The higher-ups of the intelligent races in the outer universe were the first to perceive this change.
They didn't know what had happened, but they knew that something significant must have occurred.
No intelligent race living in this star system can claim to be indifferent to the Sovereigns, even though the Sovereigns usually don't bother with them. However, they are always carefully observing the Sovereigns' every move.
They discovered that starships, which they rarely saw before, had recently been appearing frequently around their planet, moving back and forth as if on patrol.
Because of the frequent appearance of these starships, the number of star beasts that used to roam the universe has suddenly decreased significantly. Some star beast merchants who were once rolling in money by renting out star beasts have been looking worried lately.
Compared to the merchants, the leaders of the various races undoubtedly paid more attention to this change. They carefully observed, speculated, and even secretly exchanged information with the leaders of other races through their own unique means.
Why is there such a change in the Intelligence community? What happened? Did those guys who escaped to outer space do something? Or has the Intelligence community finally lost patience and is preparing to take action against them?
Considering the possible outcomes if the two sides were to actually clash, these high-ranking members of various races couldn't help but feel a sense of shared sorrow.
It's not that they look down on those guys who fled to outer space, but rather, do they really have a chance of winning against the AI's starships?
Even if those who escaped were some of the more powerful races, and even if those who remained were constantly called cowards by those who fled to outer space, could they really withstand the starships of the Aztecs? Under the muzzle of those cannons, no matter how powerful a race or how strong a body, there would only be one outcome: annihilation.
Thinking about all this, the high-ranking members of these races felt somewhat disheartened. However, some races that had been split apart over the past few thousand years had secretly established contact with the outer space, and they still did their best to send messages to their fellow races in the outer space. Although they didn't know if their messages would still be useful by the time they reached them, since the intelligent race's starships were many times faster than the star beasts, and by the time their messages arrived, the intelligent race might have already finished their attack.
Just when the leaders of the various intelligent races were feeling depressed and pessimistic, something even more exciting happened: a star fleet suddenly appeared above the home planets of some intelligent races, and then those cold and ruthless intelligent cannons were directly aimed at the royal buildings of various races, issuing the order, "Order the young chieftain of the Water Fish Clan."
"The Holy Son of the Dream Clan".
"The Crown Prince of the Sangkuang Clan".
"The third prince of the Canaanite tribe."
"The Crown Prince of the Ear-Fox Clan".
"Princess of the Luoman Clan".
"The eldest son of the Beast Clan's royal family."
...
"Board the starship immediately."
