This battleship was equipped with an information shielding system. If the intruder was detected, the information would be cut off automatically.
The female caretaker and all the servants had an unerasable mental brand in their minds.
The female caretaker had suddenly committed a traitorous act and intended to kill her young master, and she didn't even understand why she had done so. There was only one explanation for it.
Someone had tampered with her mental brand.
The answer was clear.
After a moment of silence, Shen Yunmai asked, "Though I'm not very obedient and a bit crazy, I'm not a disgrace to him. Why does he want to kill me?"
The female caretaker said, "My master doesn't have the intention to kill you. He just wants you to be obedient and not run around and make some bad friends."
Shen Yunmai's voice grew cold as he said, "I don't have any hands or feet right now. Is it a good time to lock me up?"
"Yes," said the female caretaker calmly.
It was easy to lock a person without hands or feet up; he didn't need a cell; all he needed was an urn, a vat, or a barrel.
In history, and even in real history, such a story had happened more than once.
Thinking that Jing Jiu used a barrel to lock him up and down, Shen Yunmai couldn't help but sigh resentfully.
Along with this sigh, the female caretaker's eyes grew a bit blurred, but she regained her calmness in the next moment.
She pulled up her hair to expose a piece of metal wire in her ear, saying, "All the attendants have set up a brainwave barrier. Young Master, you don't have to try to control your mind. It's too exhausting, and it's not good for your recovery."
Shen Yunmai stared into her eyes, saying nothing.
Pah! Pah! Pah! Pah! Pah! Countless explosions broke out in the quiet operating room, and the sparks flew everywhere.
In the midst of the chaos, the plasma knife changed its direction noiselessly and stabbed toward the bottom of the female caretaker's ribs.
Pah!!! A sharp weapon that looked like a flying sword without a handle slid down from the sleeve of the female caretaker. It cut off the tip of the plasma knife, and then pressed against the top of Shen Yunmai's head calmly.
The humans in the Federation of the Milky Way couldn't cultivate the magic methods like the humans in Chaotian, nor could they ride the flying swords. Yet, they could cultivate and ride the swords in a different way.
This housekeeper had served the father and son of the Shen family for many years and was influenced by them. She was also taught the Aoyama Sword Art and was already a strong practitioner in the early stages of the Inherited Night State.
Now, Shen Yunmai had only his head left. He could only attack his opponent through the Sword Awareness or control the nearby equipment to attack him. No matter how one looked at it, he seemed to be struggling on his deathbed, revealing a sense of despair and indignation.
Normally, it would be extremely difficult for the housekeeper to break Shen Yunmai's defense even though she was an expert in the initial state of the Inherited Night State.
The problem was that he had just used the plasma knife to cut a small crack in his brain's strongest protective shield.
The housekeeper's sword was right there, ready to stab into his brain at any time and turn it into a ball of tofu pudding.
The door opened, and a dozen staff members in black uniforms walked in.
They had cut off all access to the room, be it to energy or information.
Then they moved everything out, from the surgical equipment to the tables and chairs.
Then they made some simple physical barriers, replacing the electric curtains with cotton curtains, and hung them over the windows.
Finally, the housekeeper put away her flying sword and roughly pulled off the silver stud on his earlobe. Then she led everyone out of the room.
Along with a buzzing sound, a beam of pale blue light expanded from a dot into a ball and disappeared into the space.
It was the image of the Higg scattering after the gravitational field generator was activated.
It seemed that nothing had happened in the room. In fact, it had been isolated into a completely independent world.
It was completely dark.
All the lighting equipment in the room had been taken away.
Shen Yunmai was immersed in the solution with an indifferent look in his eyes. No one knew what he was thinking.
For some reason, he didn't give up feeling when his body was being modified. So he could still feel pain, but he had lowered the sensitivity.
He had felt pain when the Huangyu No. 3 Planet melted the space crack, the explosion at the bottom of the sea, and his body was completely destroyed, but he didn't take it seriously. For some reason, the housekeeper tore his earlobe when she pulled off the silver stud, and the pain was so real.
He wanted to reach out his hand to touch his earlobe, but then he remembered that he didn't have hands. He felt that his heart was a little empty, or maybe it was painful. He wanted to reach out and rub it, but then he remembered that he didn't have hands, and he didn't have a heart many years ago. Was a human without a heart still a human? Of course it was, but the heartache was a bit inexplicable.
The dark world was not scary, and he had long been used to it.
He could also see the light that others couldn't see, such as the residual discharge of the plasma knife, and the scattering from the edge of the closed curved loop of the gravitational field.
From this point of view, being heartless and handless was not a particularly miserable thing.
He seemed to be grateful that the old man was merciful enough not to gouge out his eyes.
Oh, these eyes were precious.
Of course, even if his eyes were gouged out and he entered the real dark world, he wouldn't feel afraid.
He was a real Taoist practitioner who had pursued his own path since he was a child. The firmness of his Taoist Heart was completely inversely proportional to his appearance of insanity. He felt disgusted at the thought that he might become a head in a bucket, waiting for the end of time and the arrival of observers like those concubines in a jar.
How could he get out of his current predicament? He had to dismantle the gravitational field enshrouding the whole battleship. If he had hands … well, well. He thought again that he didn't have hands, so he had to rely on his sword awareness to control the thoughts of those servants. However, it was impossible for them to think of this, as they had already put on the signal shielding equipment.
Who had he mentioned the word "wearable" to recently?
There was only one possibility left, which was that the instant when the tide of the gravitational field broke, the crack sent a message to the outside world for help.
To ask for help, he had to find someone who was willing to help him. According to the common saying of humans, this kind of person was a friend.
The problem was that he didn't have a friend.
Shen Yunmai thought of this fatal problem while looking at the dark room and feeling isolated from the outside world. Then he thought of Jing Jiu.
… …
… …
The black battleship with a peculiar shape, looking like a space antenna, disappeared in the space, making the light from the distant permanent star vanish into the void.
Jing Jiu pulled back his gaze and asked Jian Xilai, "Have you been on that mineral planet all this time?"
"Yes," Jian Xilai replied. "Li Chunyang found me. I'm not his equal even if I don't have the micro-nuclear power furnace. "
Jing Jiu said, "Few people can comprehend the All in One."
Jian Xilai reminded him, "His sword work is not as good as yours, but this is a new world nonetheless."
Jing Jiu asked while fixing his gaze on his arms, "Are you badly wounded?"
Jian Xilai raised his hands and looked at them for a while under the dim light of the permanent star outside the window. "I'm still getting used to it," he said.
He didn't answer Jing Jiu's question directly. It was because the battle on the mineral planet and the subsequent events were too painful for him to recall.
"I didn't expect you to become the commander of the fleet," said Jing Jiu.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Advisor," said Jian Xilai.
If the people in Chaotian knew that these two immortal swordsmen who had an indifferent temperament and didn't care about worldly affairs had become officials, they would think it ridiculous and feel bewildered.
"It's different. I'm the Sect Master of Aoyama," explained Jing Jiu.
The branch of the Foggy Island had a deep grudge against the Aoyama Sect, and Jian Xilai had suffered a great loss at the hands of General Li, so he had no reason to help the Aoyama Sect.
"I think what he said is sensible. The issue of the Sea of Dark Matter has to be resolved sooner or later," said Jian Xilai.
The light screen in the room lit up, displaying the live news. The fleet of the Federation was helping the populace on the holiday planet evacuate. Though Shen Yunmai had successfully melted the space crack, the earthquake and the subsequent disasters had killed many tourists and populace.
It was chaotic on the screen. Though the satellite cameras were too far away to hear the sounds, they could still sense the fear of the populace.
"The populace can enjoy themselves as much as they want without worrying about the Sea of Dark Matter. It's because it will happen three hundred years later, and they can live no more than two hundred years at most."
Looking at the chaotic scene on the planet, Jian Xilai continued, "But we are different. We can live tens of thousands of years or even longer. We stand at a higher position and live longer than the regular humans, so we have to consider these issues."
"You talk more than before," remarked Jing Jiu.
"So do you," said Jian Xilai.
After a moment of silence, Jing Jiu asked, "Who is the instigator?"
Jian Xilai said, "The installation of the gravitational field should have something to do with the Ran family. The person who is in charge of it is the Garden Party. The leader of the Garden Party is a mysterious old man who calls himself Enlightened."
Jing Jiu pressed, "Enlightened the populace and bring light to the world?"
"No," said Jian Xilai. "He wants to start a new civilization."
