A massive Thanatos-class carrier shuttled through the darkness of space. In the main control room, Xia Fei crawled out from under the control panel and stuffed the universal method pliers into his pocket.
"It's done. The Estamel cloaking device has been connected to the navigation control unit. We'll be able to advance stealthily in the future, avoiding a lot of unnecessary trouble."
The little robot Lil Pea hurriedly brought Xia Fei a cup of his favorite Biluochun. "Master, you've worked hard. Alas, Lil Pea was born as a service robot and can't help you repair your machines, and the companions who repaired your machines have all betrayed you."
Lil Pea could not help but become very sad at the mention of his companions who had betrayed humanity. Xia Fei patted his head. "It's fine. You're different from your companions. Besides, you're the most outstanding service robot I've ever seen. Everyone has their own value in existence. Just do your job well."
Lil Pea was very excited by Xia Fei's praise. He hurriedly said, "I'll go and prepare your favorite zhajiang noodles, as well as cucumber slices and tomatoes."
Xia Fei nodded, and Lil Pea excitedly rushed into the kitchen to get to work.
Phantom laughed. "This little fellow is getting more and more likable."
Xia Fei happily said, "Isn't that so? With him around, life is simply too easy. I seem to have put on a few kilograms more recently."
Phantom and Xia Fei laughed together. Xia Fei activated the Estamel cloaking device, and the Thanatos-class carrier immediately entered stealth mode, its massive figure merging with the vast sea of stars.
"We're about to enter the Na 'vi territory. Stealth warp can avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble. Alas, there aren't any pirates along the way, so there's no way to test out this flagship's combat effectiveness," Xia Fei somewhat regretfully said.
Phantom laughed heartily. "I knew you deliberately didn't use stealth all the way to test the warship. Last time, there was a pirate ship that didn't know what was good for it. As soon as they saw that it was the flagship, all the crew immediately abandoned the ship in a small shuttle. Don't even mention how pathetic they looked."
Xia Fei shrugged. The Wild Star Region was famous for its pirates, and they were also famous for their viciousness, but even the boldest of pirates could not remain calm when faced with Xia Feis carrier. After all, this was a proper capital ship, and it even had the serial number of the Navy printed on it.
"Give this ship a name," Phantom said.
Xia Fei thought about it. This ship originally belonged to the Alliance Navy, but it was lost in the sea of stars for thousands of years before it finally saw the light of day. Its original owner was also a brave general, so let's call it Nirvana, the rebirth of a hero, the rise of a phoenix.
Gui Ying clapped his hands, "Nirvana, what a good name. A phoenix's nirvanic rebirth will greatly increase its battle prowess. With you as the new owner of Nirvana, I hope its battle prowess will also double."
"But there's a flaw in the Estamel cloaking system. When it warps, it will produce a strange energy fluctuation. In the past, the Impaler was just a cruiser, but the enemy was able to detect its signal. Wouldn't the massive Nirvana be even easier to detect?"
Xia Fei smiled. "This flaw is very simple. The energy control unit of the Estamel cloaking system has a throttle valve. This valve uses a method of dispersing and discharging energy to reduce energy disturbances. This way, the problem of energy disturbances on the warship itself is solved, but the warship will be surrounded by scattered energy molecules. The radar's microwave channels can easily detect such disturbances, making it even easier to detect.
"I used the Titan's energy control unit as a reference and installed a circuit responsible for energy return. This way, the unwanted energy can be sent back to the reactor and stored away instead of being discharged into space."
Phantom was startled. "When did you do this? Why didn't I know about it? "
Xia Fei casually said, "As long as I figured out the principle, I just had to do the rest. A few days ago, when I was redesigning the Black Bat radar, I casually added an energy return unit. In any case, Nirvana is huge, and it has plenty of raw materials and processing equipment.
An aircraft carrier was responsible for providing repairs and supplies to the smaller warships in the fleet. Thus, the interior of the ship was filled with equipment of all sizes, and the warehouse of raw materials was filled to the brim. It was practically a moving city. Alas, this massive city was rather deserted. There was only one person, one ghost, one grass, one ball, and one machine.
"The Yulan Race's Oracle Titan design blueprint is truly good stuff. It gave me quite a bit of inspiration, and the perfect optimization of the Black Bat radar was all thanks to it," Xia Fei said.
Sometimes, things were like this. If Xia Fei was given a single set of radar blueprints, he would spend a very long time trying to figure out the principles behind it. However, when he was given a complete set of blueprints, his previous problems were quickly solved. After all, the radar did not exist alone and needed to be used in conjunction with many other warship systems. The principles were similar and could be used as a reference.
* Beep beep beep … *
The moment he mentioned the Black Bat radar, the radar system beeped.
With a push of a button, Charlie and Uncle Porter appeared on the screen.
"Xia Fei, the design you sent back this time is quite good. The difficulty of production, durability, and safety are several times higher. The Black Bat radar is finally perfect."
Charlie excitedly said, "Moreover, the manufacturing cost is less than a fifth of what it used to be, and the selling price has quadrupled. The profit margin is simply astonishing."
Xia Fei smiled. "The two of you didn't come looking for me just for this, did you?"
Charlie nodded. "That's just a side effect. The real reason is that the vanguard has split into two, with one heading for Terminus and the other returning to Earth. The team heading for Earth has already arrived."
"How's Earth?" Xia Fei anxiously asked. As his only home, it would be a lie to say that Xia Fei did not miss Earth. In truth, Xia Fei had very deep feelings for Earth.
The people of China all had the problem of finding it hard to leave their homeland, and Xia Fei was no exception.
"The situation isn't very good. Though Earth is just an unremarkable little planet, the insectoids still haven't let it go. Almost all the major cities have been destroyed, and their infrastructure has been severely damaged."
"What about the natural environment?" Xia Fei anxiously asked.
Houses could be rebuilt if they were destroyed, but if the natural environment became uninhabitable for humans, it would be a huge loss that could not be recovered. Mount Tai was gone; did they have to rebuild it? Jiuzhai was gone; did they have to dig a new trench?
Charlie said, "The natural environment hasn't suffered too much damage, and Earth doesn't have much strategic significance. The insectoids just casually fired a few cannons and razed the cities to the ground before leaving."
Xia Fei let out a long sigh. "That's good, that's good."
Charlie said, "However, rebuilding the infrastructure will cost a lot of money, and President Wu Long is currently very busy preparing the funds for Earth's reconstruction."
Xia Fei waved his hand and solemnly said, "We're all people of Earth, so we mustn't forget this even if we reach the end of the universe one day. Tell Wu Long that the company will bear all the capital required."
Charlie said, "Wu Long will surely be overjoyed when he hears this. I'll inform him right away."
Xia Fei nodded. "I know that Quantum Holdings isn't in a very good situation. The sharp depreciation of the currency has greatly reduced the expected profits, but you don't have to worry. With me around, Quantum Holdings won't fall. Not only will I take care of the costs of rebuilding Earth, but I'll also take care of the resettlement of the refugees and the support of the families of the dead and injured. Moreover, the reconstruction of Earth will be done according to the highest standards of the Alliance, turning Earth into a first-class residential area in the entire Alliance!"
Charlie stuck out his tongue. "Rebuild according to the highest standards of the Alliance? That's a huge expense. Xia Fei, have you really thought it through? "
Xia Fei swiped his finger across his spatial ring. There was enough good stuff inside to buy a few hundred Earths, so rebuilding Earth was a piece of cake.
"Trust me; money isn't a problem."
After handing over the company's matters, Charlie tactfully left, leaving only Xia Fei and Porter behind. Porter scratched his head in embarrassment. "During this time when the Alliance was in danger, Windchime and I took care of each other and got along very well. Windchime asked me to tell you to thank you for forcefully bringing her from Black Abyss to my side back then. Otherwise, she would've missed out on me and would never know that being with me is a very happy thing."
Xia Fei laughed. "I'm naturally happy that the two of you got along well, but there's no need to thank me. It was my fault back then. Normally, I would've kidnapped her and brought her back."
Turning off the screen, Phantom let out a deep sigh. "You … You've done a good job helping Old Porter deal with his emotional problems, but you probably haven't figured out how to deal with your own, have you? Avril is waiting for you. "
Xia Fei was speechless. Law Adepts lived alone in space, isolated from the rest of the world. Based on Xia Fei's past experience, the more experts gathered, the more serious the conflict would be. Avril's innocence was not suited for living there. Besides, it would be very troublesome if Avril was kidnapped and used to threaten him.
On one hand, there was the sincere Avril, who was determined to stay with Xia Fei forever. On the other hand, there was an unknown world and unknown dangers. Xia Fei was willing to share his happiness with Avril, but he was not willing to share the risks with her.
Xia Fei sighed, shook his head, and walked back to his room alone.
…
The Na 'vi lived in the cracks between the humans and the insectoids. They had always been considered weak, but this time, they had taken advantage of the war between the humans and insectoids to make a killing. The human refugees had to pay a large headcount fee when they landed, and the insectoids, in order to prevent the Na' vi from leaning toward the humans and isolating the Pan-Human Alliance, gave them some benefits and promised never to invade again.
"Queen, you've reaped a bountiful harvest this time, haven't you? Not only have you obtained many treasures from the Pan-Human Alliance, you've also obtained many of their advanced technologies, "a minister happily said during the celebration banquet in the Na 'vi palace.
The banquet had lasted for seven days, and it was nothing more than a celebration of the large amount of wealth they had plundered from the Pan-Human Alliance.
Queen Duan Guyun's eyes were hazy from drunkenness. In truth, she had not been sober for the past two months.
She grabbed a human male pet with one hand and stuffed him into her plump chest. Her two lumps of fat pressed against him so hard that he almost suffocated to death.
"It's a pity that the humans and insectoids have reached a peace treaty, or else This Queen would have obtained even more." Duan Guyun reached into the male pet's crotch and grabbed a bunch of grapes. He didn't even bother to wash his hands.
As one of the few matriarchal races in the universe, the Na 'vi females were strong and lustful, while the males had low statuses. Most of them stayed at home to feed their children and do the laundry. This Queen Duan was a model of female heroism, and her style was truly shameful.
Being a pet to a fat woman who weighed more than four hundred kilograms was an extremely tragic matter. From time to time, there would be stories of male pets committing suicide because they could not stand the queen's abuse, or the tragic stories of male pets dying from the queen's abuse.
Unfortunately, this fat woman liked human male pets the most. She did not even spare a glance at those of her own race. As a matter of fact, many young masters of wealthy families had sought refuge with the Na 'vi during the chaos of war. In just a few days, they would be coerced and lured by the queen into the palace to become her gigolo.
These young masters usually indulged in debauchery and had long been hollowed out by beauty. They could not withstand the queen's torment before dying. Therefore, the death rate in the harem had been increasing recently. It could be considered retribution for living under someone else's roof.
"Your Majesty, I think we should instigate the Human Alliance to retaliate against the insectoids. After all, the humans suffered a great loss this time, so they won't let it go so easily. Moreover, I heard that the commander of the human side, Tai, is a ruthless character. He has been biding his time, waiting for the insectoids to achieve victory after victory. Only when their morale is high did they strike a painful blow, wiping out nearly a thousand insectoid fleets in one go.
"Now that the insectoid and human forces have regained their balance, it's the best time to instigate them to continue fighting!"
The one who spoke was not as muscular as Queen Duan, but she had a large bloody mouth. Her crooked yellow front teeth were exposed in an unrestrained manner, and she was so ugly that it made one want to vomit.
She also had a male pet in her arms. When he hugged her, she couldn't help but use her mouth to nibble on him. She didn't know how this man was able to endure the stench. Presumably, his white and clean face was caused by the smell.
In short, the Na 'vi palace was filled with all kinds of hair-raising' peerless beauties'. It was truly difficult to find another group of people that could compare.
Suddenly, the sky became extremely bright, as if ten thousand suns had risen at the same time!
Waves of heat accompanied the dazzling light. When this light disappeared, the Na 'vi no longer had their capital planet, no longer had their queen. Thus, the entire world became peaceful.
…
"What a pity, truly a pity. You used up the last Star of Ruin just like that." Phantom shook his head as he gazed at the distant light.
Xia Fei was unconcerned. "Things are meant to be used. As long as they're used correctly, there's nothing to be pitied about. It's not like they'll lay eggs if they're kept."
Phantom said, "If you're not satisfied with the Na 'vi bullying Avrils, you can just charge in and kill their queen. Why waste a Star of Ruin to destroy a planet?"
Xia Fei shook his head. "First of all, just killing their queen won't be enough to quell the hatred in my heart. Second, I did it for a certain someone."
"Who are you doing this for?"
"The insectoids."
…
In the imperial capital, Qingyan was sitting in the Golden Tent, handling the various documents that had been handed to her. She had once been a supporting character in the Golden Tent, but now, she had become the master. Qingyan found it very difficult to adapt to the change in her role, and after half a month, she had lost quite a bit of weight.
At this moment, Qingliu walked into the tent with a smile, and Qingyan hurriedly gave him a seat.
"Daughter, it feels different to be sitting in the Golden Tent, doesn't it?"
Qingyan sighed. "I don't know what's going on, but there's always an endless stream of memorials to go through every day. Those ministers want to have an audience with me, and once they're seated, they won't leave. They'll pull me over and talk about all sorts of things, their greedy eyes restless. It's really annoying."
Qingliu heartily laughed. "With Uti's death, you'll become a widow, and the child in your womb will inherit the throne when he grows up. Whoever catches your eye will become the emperor emeritus! The stepfather of the emperor of the Golden Tent! It would be strange if these princes, dukes, and ministers didn't try their best to circle around you. I heard that a few ministers who were already married recently secretly killed their wives. Presumably, it was to clear their identities and achieve good things with you. "
"Power is a good thing, and they'll do anything for it."
Qingyan was furious, her pretty face turning red as she slammed the table. "So that's what's going on! These fellows are willing to kill their wives and abandon their children for another woman. If Yan-er follows them, I'll be the one to be beheaded in the future! What a bunch of wretched fellows! I'll definitely have the guards investigate them and give them the death penalty! "
Qingliu waved his hand. "Yan-er, actually, the crazier these fellows are for you, the more advantageous it is for us."
Qingyan frowned and asked, "Father, what do you mean?"
Qingliu stroked his beard. "They're wholeheartedly pursuing you, so they'll definitely do everything they can to please you. Whatever you order them to do, they'll definitely do their best to complete it. The process of you entering the Golden Tent can be said to have been perilous. If not for that dream and the child of Uti in your womb, I'm afraid that it would've been very difficult for you to achieve your goal. We need to stabilize our footing right now, so we can't afford to become enemies with those ministers, at least not for the time being. "
Qingliu purposely emphasized his words, reminding Qingyan that the child in her womb was not Uti's real child, as well as how dangerous the process of seizing power was.
Qingyan was speechless, hurriedly giving her body to a lowly servant, but before they could have a few more rounds of lovemaking, that servant was killed to silence him.
Thinking about it, she had led a sorrowful life. When she was young, she did not hesitate to give herself to Uti for revenge. Back then, she did not know much about sex, so it was not a big deal. Now that she was in her thirties, her beautiful body had never been touched by a real man. After entering the Golden Tent, countless eyes had been on her, and she had not even had a chance.
The more greedy eyes around her, the more Qingyan recalled Xia Fei, who had chased her out of his room, and for a moment, she could not help but sigh.
"Recently, there's been a war faction inciting another war against the Pan-human Alliance. If we insist on not allowing it, will there be a change?" Qingyan asked.
Qingliu's expression shifted, and he nervously said, "Absolutely not! Do you know that the Na 'vi capital planet was suddenly destroyed a few days ago, and the queen and many of the nobles and ministers perished together? "
Qingyan nodded. "I've heard about that. It seems to be very similar to that super bomb Xia Fei used before. Do you think he was the one who did it?"
"It must be! The Na 'vi are two-faced and have plundered a lot of wealth from the Pan-human Alliance. With Xia Fei's vengeful personality, there's no way he'll let them off so easily. "
"Didn't he say that he no longer has that super bomb?" Qingyan asked doubtfully.
"Xia Fei is too cunning. You can't trust him! If he says he doesn't have it, then he definitely has it! Based on the time, if he didn't return to the Pan-human Alliance right away, he would've just happened to be on the Na 'vi capital planet. There's no doubt about it. He must be the one who did it! Moreover, he's also secretly warning us that if he can destroy the Na 'vi capital planet, he can destroy the insectoid capital and destroy us! "
Qingyan's expression changed again and again. She did not know why, but she felt more admiration for Xia Fei than fear. She felt that he was the man who was truly worthy of her beauty.
