021 The Mysterious Rescue Pod

The hills shrouded in the night, Li Mi's brick and wood villa stood alone, as if telling all the incredible things he had seen, but no one could hear them.

Fifty meters from the back garden, the brightly lit construction site is surrounded by top scholars and experts from the Black Left Star Field. Here are history professors, engineering experts, experts in materials science, and even famous military weapons research directors.

More than a dozen extremely smart big heads were almost pressed together, and everyone was leaning their heads to look into the underground cave. The winch drove the steel cables to slowly rise. When the hazy light lit up underground, they knew that things were not far away.

Uncle Liu couldn't sit still at this time. He began to pace back and forth in the same place, and his curiosity had already been raised to his throat.

"Oh..." With a scream, a black cigar-shaped object was pulled out by a steel rope, covered with mud and dust and moss that had grown for many years.

The dirty and embarrassed appearance cannot conceal the texture of the metal. The dirty area exposed the silver-white metal shell, and there are strange patterns on it.

"Professor Lin, you are a biologist. Let's see if moss and silt have any research value?" someone in the crowd said.

An old pedan with heavy glasses was almost lying on the moss and started to carefully explore with a microbial detector. "No problem, they are all very ordinary underground moss, and there are no strange bacteria and fungi in the mud... I suggest you can clean the shell!"

"Okay, start to act..." The high-pressure water gun began to clean the shell of the metal body, and just rushed to halfway through a warship design master screamed.

"Oh, my god! This is a lifesaving pod... a lifesaving pod that I don't even know the model!"

With a bang, the wine glass in Liu Bo's hand fell to the ground. He rushed over regardless of it. "Are you sure? How could anyone hide the lifesaving capsule in the groundwater system? Could it be..."

Uncle Liu didn't dare to say the second half of the sentence. He immediately thought of Li's identity as orphan. There was a strange lifesaving pole hidden under the ground of his adoptive father's villa, which was originally unreasonable.

What is even more incredible is still behind. Two material experts used three sets of different types of metal detectors, but in the end they could not find out what this metal was.

"Sir, this... this is impossible. This is actually an alloy that we have never seen before. We have studied materials all our lives, but I have never seen this metal!"

What is even more surprising is that those warship design experts have never seen such a life capsule. No one in the three sacred empires, including countless small countries in the universe, chose to use cigar-shaped to create a life capsule.

"Sir, the life-saving compartment in the entire universe is cylindrical. Some of the Source Fire Empire choose hexagons. No one has ever used the shape of a pointed cigar at both ends?"

The history of human conquering the universe can no longer record the time. In the existing archives, the human universe expansion era has experienced at least three great catastrophes of civilization. It is in the course of war catastrophes, many dusty histories have completely disappeared, and in the end, humans have no way to even test the time for their own civilization to continue.

However, everyone knows that no matter how long the history of human beings conquering the universe is, the universe is always dangerous for human beings. Who knows when a particle storm will occur in the space environment? The originally quiet meteorite belt God knows when will it shift? There is also an irresistible dark sky, and it is common to devour several spacecraft from time to time.

What's even more terrifying is that humans themselves will never stop war, and rampant pirates will not die. If humans want to survive in space, they cannot do without the last fuse and lifeboat.

When an accident occurs, the space crew will be closed in the lifeboat and will be fired out. As the lifeboat continues to be sent, the lifeboat will allow the crew to enter a deep hibernation state until rescued by other warships or planets.

With the support of the hibernation system, human life span can be infinitely extended, and the unresisting vacuum environment of the universe can allow the life capsule to fly forever. In theory, humans can live forever in the life capsule.

Bo Liu gently tapped the lifesaving compartment and whispered, "My Li, Li, you really scared me. If there were countless arms hidden underground, or a treasure, I wouldn't be surprised... But did you actually hide a lifesaving compartment for me today? Or is it a style that no one has seen before..."

"Boy, why are you so many secrets? Come on, open the lifesaving pole for me, let me see what's inside..."

More than a dozen experts followed the order and started to act, but after fiddling for half an hour, the group of experts said with a bitter face, "Sir, we... we can't turn on him at all, we can't even find the switch..."

"What? You are the top scientists in the Black Left Star Domain. You can't even open a lifesaving capsule?" Liu Bo looked incredible.

"Yes, we can't understand the structure of this lifesaving pod. This is a brand new design idea, simple and efficient... We must send it to the institute, this is a priceless treasure! We cannot conduct destructive research..."

Scientists are afraid that officials will make decisions when they are in a hurry. If Liu Bo now asks the military to forcefully destroy the opening of the position, it will really destroy the treasure.

Of course, Liu Bo knew what they were thinking. He smiled bitterly and waved his hand, "Okay, transfer the lifesaving pod to the Magician's base camp first. There is a large underground base there, and all kinds of facilities are very complete..."

When the crane started to transport the lifesaving compartment, Liu Bo suddenly asked, "If this lifesaving compartment is measured by money, how much should it be worth?"

The scientific researchers did not understand why the head of the palace would ask such a philanthropic question. They said excitedly, "How can this be measured by money? Is this a priceless treasure? Is it good? The brand new design process and unknown alloys are difficult to measure its value just by these two points!"

"Priceless treasure... This is priceless treasure!" The experts who were away were still shouting indignantly along the way, leaving Uncle Liu in the same place a little embarrassed.

Li knew nothing about the lifesaving pod. He never expected that his adoptive father would leave him a priceless treasure. If he had known this treasure, why would he be poor to be an auxiliary soldier?

Li's adoptive father died of a sudden heart attack and did not leave him a last word on his deathbed. Maybe the old man wanted to tell Li's life capsule the secret, but luck made people! But if Li's thought about it carefully, even if Li knew this secret, he would probably not be able to dig out the life capsule from the rock formation 300 meters deep underground.

It is sometimes a torture to be able to see wealth that cannot be spent.

The wreckage area, the french market. This is a gathering place for the poor and of course the paradise for the fallen. In this huge market that occupies a whole layer of spaceship cabins, there are countless smuggling merchants, drug dealers, thieves, prostitutes and underworld halls.

Here, as long as you have money, you can buy all the prohibited goods in the universe. Of course, as long as you have money, it will attract countless covetous eyes. As long as your money dares to show off, scammers, thieves, and open-air robbers will target you. Unless you can show the power to make them afraid, losing money will be light and life will be difficult to protect.

Li Mi and Qiu Wei, plus Geman orphan Fujimi, the three of them stood by the flying platform of the fritters market, looking at the chaotic block, and all frowned. Among them, Fujimi's eyes also showed a look of fear.

Li Mi stroked her short hair and whispered, "Don't be afraid, there are many geese people living here. Maybe it's not necessarily possible for you to find relatives! Don't worry, I didn't abandon you. If I can't find relatives, I will take care of you..."

Perhaps the military uniform of the Exploration Auxiliary Corps confused everyone. On their way to search for the Fengleopard, except for a few wild prostitutes coming to solicit business, the other thieves were unwilling to pay attention to them. It can be seen that the status of the Auxiliary Corps in Forty-Five Degrees City is synonymous with poor ghosts.

After inquiring along the way, I soon arrived at a camp with singing. Li Mi read that right. It was actually a camp surrounded by wooden fences. The original warship cabin inside was actually empty, and a large area of ​​open space was built with tents.

"Damn! The singer barbarians have a heavy taste. They actually created a grassland nomadic tribe in the warship? They really shouldn't live here. The outside of the city is their paradise!" Qiu Wei sighed.

At this time, Mengbao had already learned that Li Mi was coming to find him. The excited Geman Warrior led a group of brothers to the camp gate to welcome him.

"My Li, you are the Banyue Star I admire the most. What kind of good news did you bring to me? I can't wait!" After saying that, he hugged Li Li in his arms.

"Haha, of course I'm here to fulfill my promise. I sold your beef at a very fair price, a full 30,000 gold coins!"

"Ah! You are really the friend who keeps your promises the most. Come on, let us treat you with fine wine and barbecue. Today, we will not be drunk and will not return!" The generous singer barbarian shouted collectively and surrounded Li Mi and walked into the camp.

The bonfire, the spirits, the big chunks of beef, the whole roasted lamb... and the drunk singers were singing while beating the drums. Everyone in the fritters market was covered with noise, but all of them were expressions that dared to be angry but did not dare to speak.

In the eight years since the Ge Barbarians immigrated to Banyuexing, the brave and warlike Ge Barbarians have already shown their majesty, especially in the frivolous goods market, even the underworld hall dare not provoke these barbarians.

"Come on, brother, I'll give you a cup... From now on, all the camps of the Geman people will be open to you. Even if you go to Geman Star, you will meet countless friends. If you have any help in the future, especially in fighting, you can come to us..."

"Singerman... Let's treat our friends to a cup!"

Li Mi was dizzy and drank a liter of beer before he could burp, another liter of beer was stuffed over.

"Wait, I haven't transferred the money to you yet, I haven't given you the money yet..."

"Don't worry, our song barbarians believe you..."

"Wait, I have something to ask you. See who knows this little girl Geman. I saved her in District 108. I want to help her find her relatives!"

When they heard that Li Mi needed help, the bonfire suddenly became quiet. The crowd watched Fujimi start to whisper to ask each other if they knew this little girl, but everyone shook their heads.

At this moment, a sudden bang sound woke up the singer-song barbarian present, "Fumi! Why are you back..." Everyone turned their heads and saw that it was a woman who made a hand-pickle meal for everyone at the banquet.
Chapter completed!
