Chapter 43
Chen Xi stared in shock at the strange fish, whose bodies were almost half-sized mouths filled with fangs, and remained silent for a long time. "What is this?"
“That’s the Ma Beast, and it’s also our destination for this trip.” A beautiful, deep voice rang out, and a figure like a god slowly walked to Chenxi’s side, taking over what Binlan had been doing.
"You mean, we're going there for fun this time?" Chenxi's eyes widened involuntarily.
Jin Yi gracefully peeled a grape with her long, slender fingers, gently placing it between Chen Xi's lips, and asked softly, "What? Aren't you looking forward to it?"
Chen Xi's eyes crinkled slightly as she quickly ate a grape and said excitedly, "Of course I'm looking forward to it! Getting up close to these beasts will definitely be more exciting than watching a movie."
A smile slowly appeared on Jin Yi's face, and she said gently, "I'm looking forward to it too."
...
The massive fleet of starships sped through the universe, rapidly approaching its destination. After only about two days, the fleet was close to the asteroid belt.
Now that they had arrived at their destination, the royal heirs who had been carried on the ordinary starships came in handy. After all, as playmates, how could they not accompany Chenxi to sightsee at this time?
In the starry sky, the originally orderly starship fleet slightly dispersed. An ordinary starship, which was originally at the back of the fleet, passed by one starship after another and came to the side of the special starship that was in the protective center of the starship fleet. Then, it quietly extended a passage and docked with the special starship with a soft click.
At the same time, the sealed space where the royal heirs were staying suddenly opened, and a group of intelligent beings walked in. Leading them was Binlan, whose orange eyes swept over them indifferently, saying without revealing any emotion, "Everyone come out and follow me."
At Binlan's command, all the royal heirs, whether in their rooms or in the hall, obediently followed the Zhi Clan's group out.
Outside, it was still the familiar silver expanse. As they wondered where the Grim Reapers intended to take them, they followed the Grim Reapers' team through halls and corridors, passing through countless silver barriers that opened and closed, until finally, a large silver door opened, and they seemed to have entered another world.
From the originally simple and cold silver world, they suddenly entered an incomparably luxurious palace.
The shocking scene before them left all the royal heirs speechless. Beneath their feet lay soft, luxurious carpets, and before their eyes were exquisite decorations that resembled works of art. From top to bottom, every color and every line exuded unparalleled luxury and prestige.
In fact, when it comes to palaces, the royal heirs present are undoubtedly the most familiar with them, because each of them has lived in their own race's palace since birth. Therefore, they can sense the aura of a palace even with their eyes closed. And all palaces, regardless of race, have some similar characteristics. However, at this moment, looking at everything before them, at the exquisite and luxurious scenery that interprets beauty and nobility to the extreme, they suddenly felt a little ashamed. Compared to everything before them, their race's so-called royal palace was nothing more than a crude wooden hut.
As the royal heirs stared blankly at what was happening before them, Binlan, who was ahead, frowned and turned around, staring coldly at them, sensing that they hadn't kept up. "Why aren't you following?"
The royal heirs then came to their senses and hurriedly followed.
However, after being awakened by Binlan and after the initial shock, they were finally able to walk and think. Everything here was incredibly luxurious, and in the Zhi Clan, there was only one person with this style.
Sure enough, after passing through a series of incredibly luxurious sights, they arrived at a place that resembled a palace hall. There, Chenxi was sitting on an exquisitely crafted chair, like a throne, propping her chin up and opening her mouth to receive grapes held by her slender, jade-white fingers.
When she saw them walk in, Chenxi's eyes lit up, her lazy aura vanished, and she waved to them, saying, "Come on over, sit down, we're about to go into the scenic spot."
Upon seeing Chen Xi, all the royal heirs breathed a sigh of relief. At least Chen Xi's appearance proved that their previous guesses were correct, and everyone felt more confident.
However, because of the imposing figure with long blond hair standing next to Chen Xi, they didn't dare to say anything. They just smiled awkwardly and obediently found a seat in the row of seats below them.
From the moment these extraterrestrial intelligent races entered until they found their own seats, Jin Yi never looked up. His eyes were only on Chen Xi eating grapes. Only after patiently feeding her a few did Jin Yi ask, "Want some more?"
Chen Xi shook her head, and Jin Yi stopped peeling the grapes. She took a snow-white handkerchief and wiped her fingers clean one by one. Then she took a new snow-white handkerchief and carefully wiped the corners of Chen Xi's mouth.
Chen Xi, who had already fallen into depravity, remained unaffected and allowed Jin Yi to take care of her. Looking at the royal heirs below, she said, "Sit down, everyone. Our sightseeing today is very exciting, haha, it will definitely be unforgettable for you."
As Chen Xi spoke, a magnificent wall in the luxurious hall suddenly became transparent, reflecting the starry sky outside. The royal heirs were not unfamiliar with this, but they were still a little stunned, because it was only when they saw the starry sky outside that they realized they were on a starship.
Looking at the luxurious, palace-like furnishings around them, and then considering that they were on a starship traveling through space, they couldn't help but take a deep breath.
However, after trying to calm themselves down, these royal heirs were still looking forward to today's "attraction." After all, Chen Xi had never disappointed them with anything he took them to do. Whether it was the scenery of Drunken Dream Star or the flying cars and games, each one was something they had never seen or heard of before. Just how amazing would this attraction, which Chen Xi himself said was thrilling and unforgettable, be? For a moment, all the royal heirs were filled with anticipation.
As the starship fleet sailed, a meteorite belt could be seen in the distance on the Starscape Wall. This amazing sight was something many royal heirs had never seen before, and they couldn't help but stare at it intently.
The starship fleet was clearly heading straight for the asteroid belt, and with the starships moving at full speed, the asteroid belt was getting closer and closer.
Looking at the hazy, cloudless meteorite belt, filled with countless meteorites drifting by, the royal heirs present were all amazed. Was this the sight they were seeing today? It was indeed a rare sight; they had never even known that such a wondrous place existed in the starry sky before.
However, just as everyone was preparing to quietly admire the asteroid belt, the starship fleet that arrived next to the asteroid belt plunged straight in without stopping.
For a moment, the faces of all the royal heirs went blank.
Isn't this suicide? After all, they just witnessed firsthand how chaotic and dense the meteorites were within the asteroid belt.
After entering the meteorite belt, the clear starry sky on the Star View Wall became almost invisible, turning gray instead. Suddenly, the eldest son of the Beast Clan cried out in surprise as he looked at the Star View Wall. Then, all the other royal heirs couldn't sit still and stood up from their chairs. A meteorite was hurtling towards them from the Star View Wall, almost obscuring their vision in the blink of an eye.
However, the final outcome was not that the meteorite destroyed the starship. The meteorite was accurately targeted by the starship's cannons before it even got close to the starship, and was blasted to smithereens.
For a brief moment, Chen Xi's face paled, but after the cannon finished blasting the meteorite, he felt relieved. After all, Jin Yi had brought him here to play, so it must be safe. This starship fleet was carrying the AI's main AI and the only human. If something happened to their starship fleet, it would probably result in the annihilation of both humanity and the AI.
After figuring this out, Chenxi looked at everyone standing nervously in the hall and reassured them, "It's okay, the meteorite won't hit us. This place is only fun when you come in."
However, after hearing Chen Xi's words, the royal heirs just wanted to go crazy. Playing games like this?! Who would play games like this?! And who would believe that they wouldn't be hit? There are so many meteorites here, how can the Zhi Clan guarantee that they will all be hit? If one is missed, they will all be finished.
The royal heirs, so worried, were unaware that under the computational path of the AI's supercomputer, bombarding meteorites would be a sure-fire success.
But fate seemed to think the pressure on these poor royal heirs wasn't enough. In this tense atmosphere, the young chieftain of the Water Fish Clan suddenly noticed a fleeting yet agile shadow that was definitely not a meteorite. He was startled and exclaimed, "What is that?"
"What? What?" The others looked over in confusion, but found nothing. They couldn't help but look at the young patriarch of the Water Fish Clan with doubt. Had they seen wrong?
But the next moment, a gaping maw full of sharp teeth suddenly burst out from the originally gray starry wall.
