Star Rank Hunter

Suddenly, stronger and stronger magnetic field changes occurred around Xilin, and distortions appeared around Xilin's body. k First update

Xilin finally understood the reason for that obedient feeling.

The curled leaf patterns on the fingers reacted to the opened space-time vortex. The huge attraction pulls Xilin to

To be precise, that attraction was aimed at the leaf curls, but now Xilin, who was firmly attached to the leaf curls, became the bearer of this force.

Green rays of light emerged from the leaf curls, enveloping Xilin.

Xilin stood relatively back. After all, the front was reserved for people like Jiada and Jifeng, so Xilin stood at the back of the team spontaneously. Now everyone is looking at the space-time vortex in space, and no one pays attention to Xilin, so at first No one noticed when something went wrong.

When the gray cat turned its head to look, the light just came out of the leaf curls. This light gave the gray cat a very scary feeling. The gray cat often acts on intuition, so when seeing this light, a sentence appeared in the mind: Xilin Going to the other side of the space-time vortex!

So the gray cat jumped over directly, hugging Xilin's arm with its paws, and wrapped its tail tightly around it.

The gray cat has been in this world for so many years, and it really trusts Xilin alone. Others, even the people of the Sixth Squadron, have room for the gray cat's trust, but if something happens to Xilin or disappears suddenly, it will What to do? Will it be caught and dissected by those weird scientists? Also, where there is Xilin, it will not go hungry. If it is left alone, will it return to its original standard of living?

Absolutely not!

The gray cat's actions were actually faster than its thinking, and the latter thoughts were only thought of after it caught Xilin.

Xiying was a beat slower. When he passed by, the light had already enveloped Xilin and the gray cat, and he was bounced away.

Even Jifeng and the others couldn't get close to Xilin, and the magnetic field fluctuations around Xilin became stronger and stronger, the figures of Xilin and Gray Cat had already blurred, and everyone didn't force them to approach.

Seeing that Xiying was bounced away, the gray cat spit out the ring in its mouth. If he and Xilin were not there, would Xiying be alone, would she be embarrassed by other vanguards, would she be hungry, would she be hungry? Yes... No matter what, the contents of this ring are enough to support Xiying to stand on his own.

It's really hard for the cat to think of these things for Xiying in such an emergency. In fact, the gray cat thinks that having Xilin around is an absolute meal ticket, and it will definitely live better than Xiying. Still relatively caring.

Gray Cat originally wanted to say something to Xiying, but he never had the chance to say anything.

The light became more and more intense, and the figures of Xi Lin and the gray cat became more and more empty, and then a ray of light flashed and shot directly into the space-time vortex above.

After the light submerged into the vortex, the space-time vortex gradually weakened until it disappeared.

Everything returned to the way it was before. However, the surrounding area is dead silent now, there is no call, and everyone is staring blankly at the disappearing space-time vortex.

The long-awaited "shortcut" just appeared and disappeared?

Xiying didn't care about other people's thoughts, and reached out to catch the slowly falling ring that the gray cat spat at him, and put his fingers together to firmly grasp the ring in his palm. This is the ring that was stripped from Oscuro. The gray cat has always been a treasure, and Xilin plans to use this ring as the "granary" for the gray cat and Xiying. But now, Xiying is the only one left.

Xiying tried to contact Gray Cat and Xilin, but there was no sign of their lives. The communicator on Xilin's body could not be contacted, and neither could Gray Cat, as if the two had suddenly disappeared.

The two just disappeared suddenly. …

Although he is just a robot, Xiying suddenly has a feeling that he has never seen before. He can't tell what that feeling is, it's too complicated, and it's uncomfortable to describe it in one word, quite uncomfortable.

Sigma will fully express her own thoughts, but Xiying is more restrained. She still has the same face that does not change her expression all the year round, but the look in her eyes has already shown many waves. It's just that Xiying looked down at the ring on her hand, not letting others see it.

"Eh? Eh!!!!" The blue light on Sigma's face turned into several large vertical lines, and he cried out in a tangled voice.

Sigma's cry brought Garda back to God.

"They... went in?" Xin Zhao said.

Gada and the others were silent.

"It shouldn't be, it shouldn't be!" Sigma yelled, waving his arms and rushing into the tunnel to look at the machine.

Ji Feng and his entourage also entered inside, they wanted to know what was going on with this Ta Ma.

After Sigma came inside, he hugged his head with both hands, and the blue stripes on his face flickered irregularly, which showed that Sigma was in a chaotic mood now.

The energy is all exhausted, and the connection node program is also chaotic. Some instruments have big or small problems. It can be said that the programs on these instruments are already chaotic and some are damaged. It will take a lot of money to repair them. less time.

Before the gray cat was sucked in, it caused a kind of "mechanical language" radiation. Even Xiying and Sigma had a momentary image, but Xiying and Sigma were special after all, so they carried it over, but other instruments could not do it, no matter it was Both the aircraft staying not far away and the instrument in the planet were affected, and the program became chaotic.

Even the starship of the "Reaper" who retreated farther due to the space-time vortex was affected and lost control for a while.

Sigma looked at the instruments there, "sobbing", and then looked at Xi Ying who was walking, "What should I do? The 'shortcut' can't be opened for the time being."

"How long will it take to open the 'shortcut' again?" Xiying asked. Ji Feng and the others listened with pricked ears.

"It will probably take three to five years, I can't tell. But..." Sigma looked at the strings and a flashing icon on the central screen, but still didn't say the "but", and ended with a sigh.

Both Jiada and Jifeng asked Sigma some questions, and the conclusions they got made them feel absurd.

"Xilin and Hulu may have been sent to the other end of the space-time vortex, and I don't know why it happened." Sigma tangled and felt wronged with his fingers. His trip back home is in vain, and with Cillin and Gray Cat gone, he will be alone.

Xilin didn't know what other people would think after he left. After being surrounded by the green light, Xilin felt isolated, and Xilin lost consciousness at the moment when the green light shot towards the space-time vortex.

After a long time, he finally regained consciousness. Now Xilin felt as if his whole body had been torn apart and put back together again, how painful it was.

Complicated noises, the sound of propellers and speeding cars, the voice of people shouting something, the sound of metal falling...

It gradually became quieter.

After a while, Xilin opened his eyes.

The scene in front of him reminded Xilin of the small living room he once had on Brown Saturn.

The layout is very simple, and it can even be described as shabby.

In the corner, there was an old robot with exposed wires sitting there quietly. It seemed that it had been there for a long time, and it was already covered with a layer of dust.

Xilin moved his fingers and felt fine.

But when he sat up, Boss Xilin's strength was wasted, and the muscles all over his body hurt like iron. Because the injury that was seriously injured by Oscuro was still not healed, and because he had gone through a painful journey of time and space vortex, the injury added to the injury, and the painful Xilin took a deep breath. …

Finally recovering and exhaling, Xilin saw the gray cat holding his arm like an octopus.

It's just that the gray cat is motionless, frozen there, not breathing.

Xilin could feel the life breath of the gray cat. Although this guy was not breathing or had a heartbeat, he was still alive.

Xilin flicked the gray cat's ears.

Do not move.

Poked the belly.

Still not moving.

Xilin frowned. crashed?

Xilin still has the same suit as before, but the protective suit is left on a shelf next to it, and it is damaged in many places.

Suddenly aware of something, Xilin turned his head to look over, and the voyeur shrank back, but it didn't take long.

One head, two heads, three heads.

Three extremely similar round heads protruded from the door. A little bean that doesn't look too big. He was looking at Xilin with wide open eyes, full of curiosity, but a little scared when he thought about it.

Sure enough, he is a child, and his thoughts are directly expressed on his face.

Xilin smiled at them, but remained silent. He is not sure what the situation is now, and he is afraid that the export will be wrong. Smiling can show kindness, especially some children can be encouraged from smiling.

Seeing Xilin smiling at them, the three little Doudings were encouraged and smiled at Xilin as well.

Although the layout of the room is relatively shabby, it shows that the conditions of the owners here are not good, but the faces of these three little bean dings are full of meat, and there is no sign of malnutrition. It can be seen that the owner here still attaches great importance to the growth of children.

One of the little Douding retracted his head and ran away, shouting something while running, but Xilin couldn't understand.

Sure enough, it was a strange place, Xilin could speak the regional languages ​​of all star regions of the Star Alliance, but now Xilin didn't understand anything that the child was yelling.

One little Douding walked away, and one of the remaining two Doudings was more courageous. He walked over slowly, lay on the bedside, looked at Xilin, and said something, but Xilin couldn't understand.

The little guy said something again, and Xilin made a puzzled expression, expressing that he didn't understand. But after all, he was a child, so he didn't think about whether Xilin could understand the language, so he turned his head and said a few words to the little guy who was still poking around the door.

Just as he was talking, footsteps came from outside the door, and he could tell it was an adult from the sound.

An old man was pulled by the little Douding who ran away just now, and walked in with a loving smile on his face. Most of all, he looks old and has a slightly hunched back, but he is in good spirits and is still healthy. Those hands were rough and calloused.

After seeing Xilin sitting up, he said something, Xilin looked at the old man suspiciously, expressing that he did not understand what they said.

In addition, even the little guy jumped at the old man, pointing at Xilin in a chattering voice, not knowing what he was talking about.

The old man Chang was repairing the machinery, when his grandson ran over and said that the person brought back by them had woken up and was smiling at the three of them while sitting on the bed. The old man Chang put down his work, and was led by his grandson to walk this way.

Originally, because of the triplets' birthday, the old man Chang promised them that he would take them around the planet for this birthday. A few days ago, he drove his own small broken aircraft to fly outside the planet.

However, people with conditions like them on their planet don’t say whether the aircraft they drive is good or bad, or whether they can carry out long-distance navigation and warp speed flight. They can’t afford the energy consumption of the aircraft alone. A family like theirs can barely maintain The maintenance cost of a dilapidated aircraft is not bad. For the sake of energy, the old man has saved up for a long time to be enough for this flight. And based on the condition of their aircraft, they can't stay away from the planet at all, they can only fly symbolically, and it's my grandson who sees the person floating in space with sharp eyes.

Because Xilin was wearing protective clothing at the time, old man Chang automatically classified Xilin as an engineer doing space operations. Space missions are very dangerous. If you don’t pay attention, you will be thrown into space and then abandoned. The old man knows a lot about this kind of situation. Many engineers died in space like this. Rich people will directly use maintenance robots, but those who have no money can only use manpower. They can't afford such a maintenance robot, and they are worried about cheap maintenance robots, so more unqualified people tend to hire maintenance engineers to complete space operations. …

The money earned like that is all hard work. The old man Chang also did such things when he was young, but now that he is getting older, there is another thing that he can't let go of these little guys at home, so he doesn't get in touch with such things anymore, and is doing his current job dutifully.

The old man Chang also saw the gray cat wrapped around Xilin's arm, and the old man Chang also sighed, it is not easy to have such a loyal pet, but unfortunately, when they found this person, the gray cat had already stiffened, it seems Been dead for a while.

If the gray cat knew what old man Chang was thinking, it would definitely be furious.

The style of protective clothing that Xilin wears has never been seen by the old man Chang, and he may not be from their planet, but after all, the old man has done space maintenance work, and he also has a good impression of Xilin, and he feels pity when he sees Xilin at his age. The young guy took on such a dangerous job. If he hadn't met them or the protective clothing was scratched, he would have died.

Xilin's protective clothing was cut after the old man Chang rescued Xilin, otherwise Xilin would not be able to be rescued at all, and he would not even be able to feed the pills.

Hearing from his grandson, this person seemed a bit dumb, but old man Chang felt that this young man couldn't understand what they said. After thinking about it, the old man Chang changed his language, and spoke the language of the imperial capital, which was a bit lame with a strong exaggeration, and it was also the lingua franca of the empire.

"Could you understand me?"

Xilin really understood this. At the same time, Xilin was also shocked. This was very similar to the language Yuanye gave him when he was a child. Yuanye said it was the language of his hometown, but Xilin had never found such a language in the Star Alliance. Didn't expect to be able to hear it here now.

"Yes, I can understand this." Xilin tried to say something.

Hearing Xilin's words, the old man's eyes lit up, "It turns out that he is from the Starfield of the Imperial Capital!"

Xilin scratched his head, looking embarrassed. In fact, he didn't know the meaning of "Emperor Capital Starfield" at all.

Seeing that Xilin did not deny it, the old man Chang classified Xilin as a young man who grew up within the star field of the imperial capital but whose family conditions were not good, and who came out to perform dangerous work for some reason.

Generally, people from the imperial capital star field have such a standard pronunciation. In other star fields, there are very few people with standard pronunciation. Can speak such a standard imperial language.

"Are you a mechanical engineer?"

"It is."

The old man Chang looked at Xilin with pity on his face. It is not easy to make a living in the imperial capital. Since he came to such a small place like theirs, he must be forced to do nothing. Alas, poor child.

Xilin maintained the prettiest smile, but seeing old man Chang's expression of pity and kindness, the corners of Xilin's mouth twitched again and again.

"My surname is Chang, you just call me Grandpa Chang just like the boys around you." Old man Chang said as he handed Xilin a glass of water and a few pills.

Xilin took the pill and took it immediately, and thanked Old Man Chang.

The old man Chang laughed happily when he saw Xilin taking the medicine so simply. If other people would definitely study the medicine with suspicion for a long time.

The old man Chang didn't know that Xilin immediately analyzed the ingredients of the pills when he took them, and they were all basic tonics, which is why he ate so crisply. I don't know if the old man Chang will break the hearts of the old people if he knows the truth.

"My name is Xilin." Xilin didn't say much, but said that he was alone.

The old man chatted with Xilin, and Xilin got a brief understanding of the family's situation.

The three little Doudings that Xilin saw were five-year-old triplets, ranked six, seven, and eight respectively. The old man Chang directly called them Xiaoliuxiaoqixiaoba, without another name.

The situation here is very bad. The survival rate of children in a family is too low, so every family will save a lot of children. Because of the high death rate, people here generally don't take official names directly, and only take another name when they grow up or under certain special circumstances.

The old man and his wife left early, and finally gave birth to a capable son, but they also left them because of an accident. The daughter-in-law has been working hard to give birth. After the son left, the daughter-in-law also gradually lost weight. After giving birth to triplets, she followed went. The old man Chang and six children were left behind.

Why do you say six children? Neither the eldest nor the second child survived.

However, the 11-year-old twins Chang Xiaosan and Chang Xiaosi did their best. They were admitted to a good school and left this area to study.

As for Chang Xiaowu, due to setbacks from the womb, he was congenitally in poor physical condition, often fell ill, and was a poor child who grew up taking medicine.

The old man Chang now earns some basic living expenses every day in his small repair shop to support himself and his children. In this area of ​​the planet, there are densely packed families similar to the Chang old man's family. They open a small repair shop in their own homes to support their families.
