Chapter 428 Cultivate a Master
The Pyro was traveling slowly in the universe at a nearly static speed.
Through the huge porthole, Lu Li saw countless planets, which were shining in the dark.
In fact, with the visual ability of human beings, it is difficult to see any details in this vast space, and one can only experience one's own insignificance.
"According to the pre-arranged time, Roche Biology should arrive in half an hour."
Roger took two cans of beer from co-pilot Andy, and handed one of them to Lu Li.
"I really didn't expect that my first journey into the starry sky would end in this way."
"Although the time to enter deep space this time is only a few days, the process is very exciting, isn't it?"
After finishing speaking, Roger found a vacant seat beside him and sat down, leaning up halfway to stare at the dark and deep starry sky, and murmured: "Frankly speaking, this is the first time I have encountered such a thrilling situation in the industry for so many years, and I almost returned home." not going."
It has been nearly two days since the two of them destroyed the corpses and threw harmful garbage into outer space, during which time nothing happened.
Everything is so smooth and peaceful.
Not only that, no one asked about the details of the battle that took place in the back cabin at that time, it was as if it had never happened.
Because, they could imagine how subversive the scene was, and it could shake the heavy scientific research ship with a length of more than 500 meters.
Fortunately, two professionals were invited on board to take charge of the security work, otherwise, everyone would have died.
Human beings who have broken free from the genetic lock are so strong.
The above two points are all the thoughts of most people.
Only Roger knows that this is not the power that can break free from the first-order gene lock.
Of course, a certain spy who was inserted had a similar idea, but for his own safety and to avoid revealing his identity at a critical moment, Ta chose to act in a low-key manner.
Because of this, the captain and Dr. Amy vaguely believed what Roche Bio said:
They installed some secret monitoring equipment on the spacecraft to ensure that everything is under the control of the company.
"Mr. Chef has made some hot food with the last ingredients, try it."
While the two were chatting casually, Miss Colleen came over, holding two plates of shredded pork rice with vegetables and a small half of roasted elbow in her hands.
In an instant, the aroma is tangy.
In the past two days, everyone has been eating energy bars to supplement their nutrition. It’s not that there are no fresh ingredients to use. In fact, there are too many of them to eat. Unfortunately, they are all in the refrigerator on the top floor restaurant and cannot be taken out for the time being——
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, the area from the medical cabin to the back was completely blocked, and the logistics staff only brought out a small amount of ingredients.
"Thanks."
Lu Li smiled as he took the plate from the female engineer and began to devour it. Since he ate tasteless energy bars several times a day, his mouth was already tasteless.
In contrast, Roger, a foodie who loves food, doesn't feel anything.
After all, in the past ten years, he has carried out several interstellar missions, and this kind of journey, which is calculated in units of years, is mainly based on energy bars and liquid food.
"Is the negotiating team sent by Roche Biology arriving soon?"
Miss Colleen spoke suddenly. She was squatting not far away with her dinner plate in her hand. She was obviously depressed, as if she was worried about where she would go.
For this girl who helped and repaired the prosthesis many times and rescued important property for free, Roger was very patient. He put down the spoon in his hand and promised:
"Don't worry, we will get everyone back to land safely."
"Thanks."
On the side, Lu Li drank the remaining beer in the bottle and added, "It's just that I need to live in another place."
Almost at the same time, the crew members who were listening to the conversation between the three sighed one after another. They couldn't say how sad they were, but they couldn't help feeling a little grateful for the confirmation of their conjecture.
In all honesty, after experiencing these incidents, no one dared to go back to live even if Roche Biology swore to guarantee the safety of everyone.
The captain even said bluntly in private that next, he will find a living planet with perfect order and more advanced technology to settle down, so as to ensure that he will not be persecuted in the future.
When the Tinder was shrouded in a strange atmosphere, hundreds of millions of kilometers away, a light transport ship was approaching at super-light speed.
finally reached……
Luo Yue, who stood in front of the porthole and stared into the distance, had a flash of fire in her eyes.
In order to obtain the mysterious creature called Alien, he personally boarded a spaceship, entered the deep space, and negotiated with people.
"Sir, the scanner has detected the location of the Tinder." The female secretary trotted over to report on her work.
"Get in touch with them as soon as possible to complete the docking work."
Speaking of this, Mr. Luo suppressed the heat in his heart, and warned himself in his heart: the alien has not been obtained yet, so don't get carried away with complacency.
"Docking?"
In space travel, spacecraft usually travel at super-light speeds. Therefore, when the two ships want to complete this work, they must slow down to the slowest speed and keep going in the same direction. The docking is realized at the set interface.
It sounds uncomplicated, but it is extremely troublesome in actual operation. This requires not only the cooperation of the two parties, but also a large number of special tools and technical personnel.
However, Roche Biology has long been prepared, and it will not take much effort to achieve this goal.
What really surprised the secretary was that his boss had given up on the trial plan.
Long before the departure, the company mobilized the most elite security forces and equipped them with various advanced weapons. It is said that many of them are contraband flowed from other higher planets.
It's a pity that Boss Luo won't explain the reason to others, at least not to his subordinates.
Among the people present, only the two accompanying members of the board of directors knew that this was because of the news from the eyeliner: when Mr. Lu fought with the monster in the cargo hold, he caused a huge commotion and almost turned a heavy scientific research ship on its side.
Can human beings really rely on their individual strength to achieve this level?
In order for the negotiation to proceed smoothly, Boss Luo canceled the trial.
According to his original plan, before the docking of the two ships, a task force wearing mechas would be sent out to test whether the other party was qualified to negotiate with his own side.
And now... peace makes money.
In short, Boss Luo, who got the inside information, decided not to resort to any means, so everyone sat down and discussed the conditions, striving for a win-win situation.
"Boss, we are trying to establish contact with the Tinder, but there has been no response there, is it..."
A technician with glasses looked hesitant.
"It's probably because the correspondent on the ship died unfortunately, there's no need to think about it." Luo Yue waved his hand, motioning for the other party to leave.
"Use a private communicator." A ruddy and rich director sighed.
Not far away, another director did not speak. He seemed to have no interest in the upcoming negotiations, and his expression was sad.
Along the way, everyone has become accustomed to the attitude of this director, and they did not pay too much attention, and continued to be busy with their respective affairs.
[Dear Mr. Lu Li, we have already arrived near the Huozhu, and we are about to start the docking work. Is it convenient for video calls? 】
A message jumped out.
After Lu Li saw this message, he regained his energy in an instant, and Roger, who was drinking with Andy, also noticed something and hurried over.
"Did the scanner find anything?"
"Wait a minute."
The co-pilot Andy swiped twice on the holographic light screen, and soon, he pointed to a red dot and said: "It should be this, the speed of movement is decreasing rapidly, and it is estimated that we will arrive nearby in five minutes and complete the docking with us .”
Hearing this, Lu Li nodded, touched the virtual light screen with his fingers, and agreed to the video communication request.
Boss Luo's smiling face immediately appeared in front of everyone. He bowed first, and then said loudly: "Everyone, don't worry about your life being threatened anymore. I'll take you home."
"..."
Instant chill.
After experiencing so many disasters, everyone regarded him as the chief culprit. If it wasn't for his strength, he would have started complaining a long time ago. How could he be silent like he is now.
However, if Boss Luo is able to achieve today's achievements, he will naturally not feel embarrassed or unable to step down because of such a trivial matter.
He pretended nothing happened, and with a friendly smile, he first greeted the captain Lin Xiuyi, and then looked at Lu Li.
The two had a video call two days ago, so they naturally knew each other.
"I finally see you, Mr. Lu."
"Of course, and Mr. Roger, thank you very much for your efforts."
As the saying goes, reach out and never hit a smiling face.
However, when the big Roger looked at the man who came to the appointment on the screen, he felt an impulse, very strong, to follow the communication signal, teleport over and punch him to death.
"Don't waste time, hurry up and talk."
Lu Li raised his hand and patted Roger on the shoulder, and took out a simple remote control from his pocket. There were not many complicated buttons on it, just a button printed in red.
"During this period, it's best not to play any tricks, otherwise..."
Although she didn't speak clearly, Luo Yue did understand the subtext, and her smile froze.
In the power cabin of the Pyro, there are four propellers driven by vector hybrid nuclear power. Once they are detonated, no one will be able to live, and the contents inside will be burned in an instant, becoming worthless cosmic garbage.
"You two, I am negotiating with enough sincerity, so there is no need for this."
"I hope so."
"Can you let me see Alien No. 1? I heard that it has made a lot of noise."
At this time, Luo Yue made a request, but Lu Li did not refuse, he knew that this was the other party's bottom line.
The crew wanted to be safe, and Roche's creature wanted to have the alien. Both sides strictly adhered to their bottom line and would not give a cent.
"There are some mutations in that alien, and it's more dangerous than when it was born." Lu Li seemed to be inoculating the other party, lest they be shattered by what they saw next.
On the other side of the screen, Boss Luo and the people around him held their breaths.
In just a dozen hours, Alien No. 1 grew from the size of a human baby to a behemoth that can shake a heavy scientific research ship. It is really legendary and worth researching.
Countless lines of sight moved with Lu Li, from the cabin to the medical area, and then to the corridor of the scientific research area...
Soon, the careerists and scientists guarding the screen saw a black shadow curled up in a corner, covered with shackles.
Especially the head, which was directly covered with an alloy muzzle and a traction rope.
It's just... why is it so small?
The color changed too, from off-white to blue!
"Mr. Lu, can you give me an explanation? As we agreed before, strictly abide by the three bottom lines, which are the basis of the negotiation."
Boss Luo had a gloomy face. If he hadn't been concerned about Lu Li's terrifying strength and valuable research materials, he would have turned his back on him long ago.
"Three bottom lines."
Lu Li didn't seem to know why Luo Yue behaved like this, and said with his fingers, "First, make sure you get a living alien, and second, don't let the outside world know what happened on the Pyro."
"Third, Roche Biology guarantees the safety of all crew members. This is your obligation and has nothing to do with me."
After speaking, Lu Li pointed to the blue alien subspecies lying on the ground, knowingly asked, "Could it be that it doesn't meet the requirements?"
Thin, stooped, timid...
Looking at the despicable species crawling on the ground, Boss Luo had a wonderful expression.
If this guy hadn't looked somewhat similar to the drone fighters he had seen before, he would even have thought he was being played.
"Look at the exoskeleton, the knuckle blades, and the sharp inner nests."
Lu Li seemed to be possessed by a street vendor, trying his best to sell inferior products, "Besides, the blood in its body is proof."
As the words fell, a military dagger slashed across the arm of the little blue alien, yellow-green blood splashed down, and the floor was instantly corroded with several holes visible to the naked eye.
"Mr. Lu, you are a smart person, let's open the skylight and speak honestly..."
The handsome-looking director was a little impatient and was about to argue with Lu Li, but was interrupted by the big boss Luo Yue, "We will meet in three minutes. Talking face to face can dispel a lot of worries and show sincerity, can't it?"
"I'm looking forward to it." Lu Li nodded.
Alien No. 1 evolved into a queen, a queen with unlimited potential, naturally it is impossible to leave it to careerists.
As for the mutilated facehugger, although it is not in good condition, it is only an embryo injector. If it can still parasitize the host normally, it is also very dangerous——
With the power of Roche's creatures, it is not difficult to find humans who have broken the first-order gene lock to breed monsters.
But thankfully, the queen's last egg was not a facehugger, but a blue subspecies.
The subspecies are strong and weak, but affected by the environment, the evolution direction is different from the orthodox alien.
In order to breed the weakest alien in history, Lu Li didn't give it a chance to absorb nutrients from the egg, so he dug it out, hung it up and beat it severely.
At the same time, any nutrients are not given.
Especially the royal gel, all shoveled off and thrown into outer space, the traces were burned over and over again with a flamethrower to ensure that no active substance remained.
The same is true for substances such as acid blood.
So, this little alien that was only used for trading was starved for two days, and in the middle, the love from Lu Li never stopped.
In fact, it is not unfounded to do so. In the absence of energy supplements, if it wants to repair its injuries, it can only overdraw its own potential.
After going back and forth dozens of times, the last alien on the boat became like this:
Half dead, skinny, worse than a wild dog on the roadside.
