Soul Mechanic [Interstellar]

[The magical effect of meatballs]

Despite Mu Qiu's harsh words, when the little jelly looked at him with cute eyes, Mu Qiu's heart softened.

Besides, Jelly yelled that it already had a master and could no longer recognize Mu Qiu as its master. However, its actual behavior was to lie in Mu Qiu's pocket, and it had no intention of leaving at all.

Mu Qiu acquiesced to the little guy's rambunctious behavior.

In order to visit the young boy in the wind shelter, Mu Qiu specially boiled some bone soup balls with water. The soup was milky white and not so greasy, which was just right for the sick to eat.

Mu Qiu thought that there were many children in the air-raid shelter, and they probably all had big appetites, so he made more on purpose.

As a result, just by washing your hands, a large pot of soup and meatballs miraculously disappeared.

In the corner, a young man with a baby face puffed out his mouth, chewing desperately; beside him, a yellow onion was leaning on his back, his naked body trembling.

Mu Qiu stood there in astonishment, with black lines all over his head.

Dabai silently opened the fresh-keeping cabinet and went to chop the meat.

Mu Qiu had no choice but to add water to the pot again, use a high-pressure machine to soften the bones, squeeze out the marrow, and repeat the previous series of actions again.

The two culprits stood far away, one biting his nails, the other waving his tentacles, wondering what to do.

-

In the wind shelter.

The injured teenager was leaning against the wall, looking much better than yesterday.

When he saw Mu Qiu and Lan coming in, he showed obvious gratitude on his face, but when he thought of what was about to happen next, a trace of unobvious fear slipped across the young man's face.

Lan sighed, patted the young man's shoulder lightly, and comforted him: "If the effect is good this time, it will be completely cured."

The boy nodded and said politely: "Thank you, please start!"

Lan smiled at him and winked at Mu Qiu.

Mu Qiu didn't use the bondage rope Lan gave him, but put his hands on the boy's body.

The boy smiled at him without refusing.

Lan gritted his teeth, and quickly poured the mineral powder from the crystal bottle into the boy's mouth as before.

The burning pain spread like a torrent to every muscle, bone, and skin in the body, and the boy's face instantly turned pale.

A trace of unbearableness flashed across Mu Qiu's face, and Lan turned her head away in discomfort.

The gray-skinned teenagers next to them hugged each other, comforting each other in this way.

At this moment, a small yellow tentacles silently stretched out to the boy's mouth, and the round tip poked lightly.

The boy subconsciously opened his mouth, and a pink meatball rolled into his mouth.

The boy was shocked and chewed mechanically.

Jelly was very distressed, and the two tentacles met together aggrievedly.

Mu Qiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he had no idea that this guy even hid a meatball - the point is, he even carried this guy in his pocket!

Mu Qiu touched the pocket of his jacket, and was extremely grateful that the clothes of the seventh-level civilization had an automatic cleaning function.

Besides, on the side of the boy, after moving his mouth a few times reflexively, a shocked expression suddenly appeared on his face, and then he began to chew quickly.

A meatball was quickly eaten, and the boy's bright black eyes looked at the yellow jelly.

Jelly quickly covered her stomach, her big eyes were extremely innocent.

Lan seemed to have sensed something, turned her head and shouted, "Qiu, meatball!"

Mu Qiu reacted quickly, and quickly put a bowl of meatballs to the boy's mouth.

The boy was embarrassed for a moment, and finally, unable to withstand the temptation, he ate one bite at a time.

As the boy's complexion gradually improved, Lan's expression became more serious.

Looking back, Mu Qiu couldn't hide her shock, "Could it be..."

"It's Flame Beast Meat." Lan said in a daze.

"Or bones." Mu Qiu added.

Lan nodded, then turned to look at the boy, "How do you feel now?"

"It doesn't hurt so much anymore... No, no, it doesn't hurt at all now!" The young man touched his wound with surprise and excitement in his expression.

Mu Qiu and Lan looked at each other, and they both saw inexplicable brilliance in each other's eyes.

Next, Mu Qiu put the newly made pot of meatballs into disposable tableware, and served them bowl by bowl to the teenagers.

Although the teenagers looked so greedy that their saliva was about to drop, they didn't eat right away, but looked at the injured boy questioningly, and they didn't eat until the boy nodded.

It was only then that Mu Qiu noticed that the injured boy looked a little different from these aboriginal boys—the boy's appearance was more like that of a federal human, and he didn't have any tentacles on his body.

I don't know if he was trying to cover up something, so he deliberately painted his skin a gray color.

As if seeing Mu Qiu's doubts, the young man took the initiative to say: "I am not an aborigine, I was exiled to Desolate Star, and later I met Ah Hui and the others."

Mu Qiu was taken aback, not only because the boy was able to communicate with him, but also because of the words in his mouth, "Exile?"

The boy nodded, a gloomy look flashed in his eyes.

"Is it because of your father?" Lan asked proactively.

The boy sneered, "It's just a gene provider, I don't have a father."

Lan unconsciously grabbed Mu Qiu's hand, and her originally happy mood became very depressed.

-

On the way back, Lan explained the term "gene provider" to Mu Qiu.

It turned out that the Kanter Empire, a seventh-level civilization, was facing a serious problem-reproduction.

The races of the Canter Empire are divided into six grades from low to high - khaki, brown, gray, blue, green, and white. The division of these six grades is not only a symbol of status, but also a manifestation of ability.

However, accompanying it, the higher the level, the more difficult it is to reproduce.

Mating and breeding have disappeared among nobles above the blue clothes, and it is difficult to breed individual excellent offspring even with genetic technology.

Perhaps it was because of some secret arrangement, when the nobles were facing the danger of genocide 2000 years ago, a magical species was born, that is, the pregnant fruit.

Although it is called "pregnant fruit", it is actually not a kind of plant, but a kind of asexual embryo. They are like star beasts wandering in the interstellar space. When the individual's powerful genetic factors are combined with the pregnant fruit, they can give birth to the next generation.

Where this embryo comes from and where it appears is often random, and people in the Canter Empire prefer to call the appearance of the pregnant fruit "birth".

In fact, it is not difficult to find the fruit of pregnancy, but it is not easy to combine. Even if the combination is successful, it will not be able to smoothly cultivate a sound thinking ability and personality.

An embryo without a sound mind or personality has little hope of growing up.

The more noble the gene, the more difficult it is to succeed.

For example, all the majesties of the Canter Empire are single descendants. When they arrived at Cantor Eighteen, they managed to find two conceived fruits with the same attributes, but none of them were successfully raised.

It is said that the eldest brother blew himself up because the pregnant fruit could not bear the powerful gene energy, and the second child had an accident because of political opponents interfering with it.

There are also gossip that Kanter XVIII was hit hard because of this, and he suffered from depression since then, and never appeared in front of people again.

Whether it is the existence of the pregnant fruit or the gossip of Kanter eighteen, Mu Qiu was stunned when he heard it, and sighed repeatedly, "There are no wonders in the world."

-

The next day, Lan rushed to make a new batch of jelly powder, adding bone powder, dehydrated meat powder and the powder mixed together.

Coincidentally, Mr. Kuku, a nobleman in green clothes, sent a transaction application that night.

"Is it still ten bottles of cold jelly?" Lan greeted enthusiastically as usual.

"Yes." Mr. Kuku behaved politely. This time he quickly noticed Mu Qiu and asked, "Is your friend still there?"

"That's right!" Lan looked at his friend who was tidying up the room, and said proudly, "Qiu is very good, not only can tidy up things well, but also make delicious meatballs - one bite will immediately make you feel better stand up!"

"Oh?" Mr. Kuku is obviously more interested in the "meatball" in Lan's mouth, "The 'meatball' you mentioned can really make people feel better?"

"That's right, that's what I am!" Lan nodded without hesitation, and added, "So is jelly."

Mr. Kuku showed obvious hope, "If possible, can you please add this kind of 'meatball' to the ranks of trading items?"

"Uh..." Lan looked very embarrassed, "Qiu only cooks two pots each time, which is not enough to eat."

Mr. Kuku didn't intend to give up easily, "The price is up to you, can you?"

Mu Qiu finally couldn't listen anymore, walked to the trader, and said politely: "I'm sorry, I think you misunderstood, meatballs are just a kind of food made of flame beast meat, and they don't make people feel happy. The effect is because Lan likes to eat, so he feels happy."

Only then did Mr. Kuku understand, and asked curiously, "Is it okay to eat flame beast meat?"

This question made Mu Qiu stunned, and looked at Lan in surprise.

Lan scratched his cheeks and whispered to Mu Qiu: "Only the aborigines eat natural food, and the nobles of the Kanter Empire all eat special nutritious meals."

Only then did Mu Qiu understand.

Mr. Kuku smiled at the screen and didn't ask any more questions.

Lan sent him ten bottles of ordinary jelly powder, hesitated for a while, and then took out three small bottles with numbers.

Mr. Kuku noticed his movements and couldn't help asking: "What is this? A new formula?"

Lan nodded, and said with uncertainty: "It's a new type of jelly powder. I just made it today. I'm a bit rushed and haven't had time to test the efficacy of the medicine. Do you want to try it? It's a free gift from me."

Mr. Kuku smiled, with some encouragement in his eyes, "Yes, is there any new effect?"

"There are some small changes... What I know so far is that it can probably eliminate the severe pain caused by the ore powder." Lan didn't dare to say too much, "Because the experiment has not been carried out, it is not clear which of the three formulas It is effective, of course, at least there will be no side effects, do you want to try it?"

When Mr. Kuku said the first sentence, his face became serious. You must know that the jelly that can relieve pain must not be just a "small change".

Mr. Kuku didn't say any more, but clicked the trade button without hesitation.He didn't treat it as a free gift like Lan said, but paid double the price.

This made Lan a little embarrassed.

"What if it doesn't work?" Lan turned off the trader and looked at Mu Qiu anxiously.

"Then return the money to him. In this case, even if it doesn't work, there is no loss for him, is there?" Mu Qiu patted Lan on the shoulder and said thoughtfully, "Compared with this, I Instead, I was more worried about another thing.”

"Huh?" Lan looked at Mu Qiu inquiringly.

"If it is confirmed that the meat or bones of the Flame Beast can really alleviate the side effects of the jelly? Will it be a disaster for this population?"

Mu Qiu organized his language and continued: "I mean, maybe someone was injured by the flame beast, or for the sake of profit, will more and more people take the initiative to hunt and kill the flame beast? You know, those who were killed That one wasn't the one that hurt people."

Lan understood what Mu Qiu meant, and couldn't help laughing: "My dear, you are really kind!"

Mu Qiu touched the roots of his ears, noncommittal.

"However, there is no need to worry about this matter. The researchers of the star beasts have given a credible conclusion that the tyranny and aggressiveness of the flame beasts are the instinct of the group, not the behavior of individuals. It is like a virus, killing one more, It will reduce the threat to human beings by one point."

Mu Qiu breathed a sigh of relief.

-

Mu Qiu has been in the barren star for ten days, and the asteroid belt in the Milky Way has only passed two days.

In two days, the Milky Way has undergone earth-shaking changes.

The seemingly well-ordered and advanced-equipped army is vulnerable to the enemy's technology that crosses the boundaries of civilization; the Sentinels, who used to rely on their superior abilities, can only be captured by the short text armor; the federal government that once responded to all calls , I don’t know when it has been infiltrated by the enemy; the once admirable Tower of London has been filled with smog because of Mary Rhine’s rebellion.

Only then did people realize that the Milky Way is really about to change.

This beautiful galaxy, which has been running silently for hundreds of millions of years, is now facing the crisis of being colonized; people who used to live and work in peace and contentment are likely to experience the fate of becoming inferior people.

Faced with this situation, the owner of the Tianlong, the former federal major Chu Qingtian, could not give the order to jump.

In the end, he kissed deeply the ring he had put on his ring finger, and firmly gave the order to "join the war".

This time, Little Carrot didn't blame him at all, but heaved a sigh of relief—Qiuqiu would definitely support Tiantian in doing this. Qiuqiu said that Tiantian is the most handsome when he is wearing a military uniform!

On this day, March 6019, 3 in the interstellar calendar, the most famous "Galaxy Defense War" in interstellar history officially broke out.

All the members of the Tianlong took part in this battle. The mermaid, snow lotus, and snow wolf clans all rushed over and became temporary members of the Tianlong as free citizens.

Of course, there is also the ladybug family, who have become regular members of the Tianlong.

It is worth mentioning that Pumpkin's family, the golden armor leader of Iron Armor Star, took the initiative to get in touch with Major General Lin Yi, and summoned a group of people to join in as individuals.

This time, they not only provided weapons and technology, but even fought against the attack of the Iron Spider Star in person.

It has to be said that with their joining, the federal army was able to breathe a little bit.

In short, whether it is a sentinel, a guide, an ordinary person, or a special species, everyone spares no effort. In their eyes, the Milky Way is their home, and the Tianlong is their best partner, and no one is qualified to trample on it.

They formed a new team - tree people team.

More and more people are paying attention to this special team, not only because of their special race, but also because more than half of its members are minors.

Under the influence of the Shuren team, more and more ordinary people have also enlisted in the army, doing what they can with enthusiasm.

This time, the citizens of the galaxy are united like never before.

It is conceivable how many heroes will be created and how many touching stories will happen.
