"Black shop?!" Xia Fei was slightly startled.
"Yes, Cai Kangnian is in the black soul tool business. Those fallen Spiritualists also need a place to dispose of their stolen goods to maintain their livelihood. Cai Kangnian specializes in buying these black goods and reselling them to others."
"Cai Kangnian was originally called Cai Rui, but he was later reported for selling black goods. Since then, there was no news of him. Who knew that he was now in this desolate star region and even changed his name, but he still can't hide it from this old man's eyes." Fuchen recalled while speaking.
Xia Fei shrugged and said disapprovingly, "So he's selling black goods. What does that have to do with us? He sells his black goods, and we repair our ship. We have nothing to do with each other. "
Xia Fei had no concept of the so-called black soul tool. In his opinion, it was just a business, a business of the underworld. Therefore, when Fuchen finished talking about Cai Kangnian's situation, Xia Fei didn't think much of it. As long as they didn't involve each other, Xia Fei couldn't be bothered with what other people did.
Fuchen nodded. "It's fine if he abides by the rules, but if he has any bad intentions, we naturally have a way to deal with it. I heard that Cai Kangnian was traumatized, and his mental state is somewhat abnormal. What do you think after observing him today?"
Xia Fei recalled Cai Kangnian's every move and said in a deep voice, "He is indeed somewhat abnormal. His words and actions are like a child's, doing whatever he thinks. It seems like he only has one brain."
Fuchen was slightly startled. The Cai Kangnian that Xia Fei described was very different from what he remembered. In the past, this guy was a ruthless character. Many people wanted to investigate his background, but they were all secretly executed by Cai Kangnian.
"In short, you have to be more careful. No matter what Cai Kangnian has become, the things he has done in the past are still there. Who knows when he will flip out." Fuchen said earnestly.
Xia Fei smiled. "No matter what, the Silver Soul has to be repaired here. I have seen the facilities in the shipyard, and it's quite good. Besides, it's not a bad thing for Cai Kangnian to be involved in the underworld. At least he won't leak the secret of the Silver Soul."
The world liked to look at people with colored glasses. Cai Kangnian was a bad guy, and no one would believe the words of a bad guy, which was to Xia Fei's advantage.
Fuchen knitted his brows and asked curiously, "You insist on repairing the Silver Soul now. Do you have other plans?"
Xia Fei laughed. "Now that you mention it, I do have some thoughts, but now isn't the time to tell you yet. Just wait patiently."
Fuchen helplessly spread his arms. Xia Fei was acting mysteriously. Who knew what he was up to? Since Fuchen didn't want to say it, he couldn't continue asking.
For the next two days, Xia Fei busied himself in Cai Kangnian's shipyard. While this place was rather remote, it was fully equipped, not much inferior to those large shipyards in the core regions of the universe. There were even some illegal goods that Cai Kangnian had more than enough to supply.
Cai Kangnian would come to the shipyard every, but after, he, he, Xia, Kangnian's., he, Jin, "Xia, he, Kangnian's" Fei, "a., he" Soul tool, Kangnian's Spiritd.
Xia Fei found that Cai Kangnian seemed to have something on his mind, sighing from time to time. He was not in the mood to manage the workers and let them work lazily.
In addition, there was another situation that puzzled Xia Fei. As if it was planned, the number of warships in the shipyard was increasing. Every day, there would be a large number of unfriendly warriors coming in and out, with the smell of blood on their bodies. It was obvious that these people were not easy to get along with.
Command center. * Snap *
The last overclocking tube was connected to the mainframe by Xia Fei, and the radar system of the Silver Soul could finally be used.
The radar was like the ears and eyes of a warrior. After this system was repaired, the mobility and combat power of the Silver Soul would increase a lot. Before this, Xia Fei had been using a small handheld radar to guide the movement of the Silver Soul. Compared to the composite detection of a large radar, the efficiency was more than a hundred times higher.
"Try to start it," Xia Fei said to Yuan.
"Okay." Yuan hurriedly agreed and then adjusted the energy to the radar system. The indicator light began to flash quickly, and the radar system was busy checking itself.
Soul ships naturally had their own benefits. With Yuan as the brain, the intelligence of the soul ship was already close to that of humans. There was no need for complicated settings. Whatever they wanted to do, they just had to tell Yuan. If there was any accident, Yuan could also make a decision on the spot.
"The radar system is perfect." Yuan said excitedly after the self-check was over. From now on, he no longer needed to travel in the dark, which was, of course, a good thing for him.
"Okay, try to connect to the public network. I want to find that person and know where he is now," Xia Fei said in a deep voice.
"That will take a lot of time. We have to repeatedly filter and filter the public communication network, and if things go wrong, we might even have to hack into the system," Yuan said.
"It doesn't matter. We have time. Now it's up to you. No matter what method you use, just give me the location of the person."
"Understood. I will inform you as soon as I have any news," Yuan replied loudly.
After leaving the command room, Xia Fei went to the dining hall. Ever since he knew that this dock belonged to Cai Kangnian, Fuchen had never left the Silver Soul and avoided meeting him.
There was a window in the dining hall. Fuchen sat by the window and observed the passersby while drinking tea. He was very relaxed. In contrast, Xia Fei's life was much busier.
He spent days and nights repairing this warship. After all, it had not been touched for tens of thousands of years, and there were countless places that needed to be repaired and modified.
"What are you looking at?" Xia Fei asked with a smile.
"People. There are more and more people recently, and there are even spirit-masters among them." Fuchen turned his head and said in a low voice.
Xia Fei shrugged and said, "Zheng Er, who is in charge of the deployment of the dock, doesn't know the reason. It's probably because he is not the main force in Cai Kangnian's organization. As for those who are closer to Cai Kangnian, I haven't had the chance to get close to them yet."
After a pause, Xia Fei continued, "According to my observation, Cai Kangnian is getting more and more uneasy every day. There are at least three of Cai Kangnian's speedy warships on standby at the back deck of the dock, ready to set off at any time. One of them is even a Sea Parrot class clipper that is comparable to a Diamond Star class warship."
"Combined with his previous reckless action of wanting to buy the Silver Soul, I guess that Cai Kangnian is in a very dangerous situation and may leave at any time."
Fuchen was slightly startled and muttered to himself, "Sea Parrot class? I know this ship. It is a small speedy warship with good concealment, and its price is quite expensive. "
Xia Fei took a look outside the window and continued, "Not only that, many of these warships that are here for repairs are not broken at all. They are here for routine maintenance. Even after the maintenance is over, the people on the ships have no intention of leaving. The bars and dining halls are often overcrowded.
"Logically speaking, sailors are a bunch of uncouth characters. When they get together, it is inevitable that they will take liberties with a woman and fight when they are drunk. However, these sailors are rather orderly. They talk very softly as if they are afraid that others will hear them. Those who don't know might think that they are at a gathering of gentlemen. This is too civilized, and something is very wrong."
Although Fuchen didn't go out, he had been paying attention to the people coming and going on the dock. What Xia Fei said didn't surprise Fuchen, but Cai Kangnian's strange behavior made Fuchen somewhat puzzled. In the Alpha Cosmos, there weren't many people that the great soul eater Cai Kangnian was afraid of.
Smiling, Xia Fei said, "Looks like we're really lucky this time, accidentally getting dragged into a dispute that has nothing to do with us."
Fuchen shook his head and said, "You can still smile. Cai Kangnian is related to those people who forged the Black Soul Tool. This is definitely not a small matter. I think we should hurry up and set off. I'm afraid this place is going to be chaotic."
Xia Fei's eyes suddenly revealed a murderous intent as he said resolutely, "Chaos is a dispute, but it is also an opportunity for us! Some people are suitable to be killed in the chaos, without anyone knowing. "
On the third day, the repair work on the Silver Soul was progressing smoothly. This ship was no longer comparable to its former self. There were no changes on the outside, but the internal structure had already been renovated by Xia Fei.
Floating Dust had a lot of opinions about this. Xia Fei's bad habit of only pursuing performance and not comfort was at work again. A perfectly good dining hall was being turned upside down by a very noisy circulating cooling system. This machine could help cool down the engine and increase the warship's endurance at extreme speeds. However, Floating Dust could not understand why such a noisy thing had to be installed in the dining hall instead of anywhere else.
After asking, Xia Fei's answer made Fuchen even more speechless. The engine was just below the dining hall, and Xia Fei was too lazy to move the machine down, so he directly installed it in the dining hall. In Xia Fei's opinion, the dining hall was simply a dispensable room. It was quite a waste to put a sofa in an empty space.
At night, the atmosphere began to become strange. All of a sudden, this huge maintenance dock was abnormally quiet, and no one knew where they went.
"Preheat the engine. I'll go out and take a look," Xia Fei ordered.
"Better not go. This place is filled with demonic energy, making my hair stand on end. Something must be wrong," Yuan said in a deep voice.
"Don't worry. I'm very fast. It'll only take a blink of an eye to come and go," Xia Fei said nonchalantly.
* Whoosh! *
Xia Fei got off the ship in the blink of an eye and walked along the complicated corridors.
There was a fork in the road ahead. One led to the living quarters of the base, which was where people ate and drank, while the other led deep into the dock, to the command center and the core area of the base.
The situation was very strange. It was mealtime, but there was no movement in the living quarters. Did everyone suddenly stop eating and drinking?
After some thought, Xia Fei flashed into the road inside the base. There were guards here, preventing strangers from approaching, but there was not even a shadow today, allowing Xia Fei to come and go as he pleased.
The dock was very big, and Xia Fei was very fast. Under the protection of Breath Control, he approached the core area of the base.
In front of him was an unlatched alloy door, and heavy breathing could be heard coming from behind it. From the sound, he could tell that it was not just one person inside but countless people!
Xia Fei furrowed his eyebrows in confusion. He gently pushed open the door and walked in.
The scene in front of him startled Xia Fei. He saw that he was in a brightly lit hall, and for some reason, the warriors who had arrived one after the other were all gathered here. All of them had solemn expressions as if they were waiting for something.
