The Star Knight

Water Blue Star is one of the registered members of the Star Alliance. It is within the jurisdiction of the Republic, but maintains its own independence.It revolves around a white dwarf with a period of 2.5 cosmic years, and the rotation time is very short, only 13 cosmic hours.

The name of the star system is called μ-27.This white dwarf is called "Chandrasekhar", and when it evolved from a red giant to a white dwarf, all the surrounding planets have escaped.

At some time hundreds of millions of years ago, a comet carrying a large amount of solid water flew from the depths of the universe and flew towards Chandrasekhar. Its fate would eventually be swallowed by a white dwarf, but at this moment, Another comet flies toward the star system from farther away.

These two comets collided in the gravitational field of Chandrasekhar, which is a very small probability of collision occurring in the 200 billion years after the formation of the universe. If it is to be described with specific numbers, this probability will be after the decimal point, adding 93 zeros.

The two comets collided and merged, changing their respective trajectories and orbiting the white dwarf at high speed.

In that distant past, if someone could observe it with their own eyes, they would marvel at the mysteries and mysteries of the universe.

Two comets and ice cubes became the only planet in this star system—Shuilan, and its orbital distance happened to be close enough that the large amount of ice carried by the comet melted at the temperature of the white dwarf, and gave birth to the strangeness in the water. Life form.

And that orbital distance happens to be far enough away that the water won't melt and escape in the heat of the white dwarf.It just became a thin water film covering the core.

Shuilanxing is the only planet in the universe whose surface is completely covered by water. The outer layer is covered with an atmosphere created by photosynthesis of cyanobacteria, and the oxygen content is 30.5%.

The high temperature and low luminosity of the white dwarf make the light here not strong, but it is like summer all year round.The gravitational force of the stars produces strange tides, a spike of sea water, with a height of [-] meters, always faces Chandrasekhar in the center of the star system, and moves around the equator, with a period of exactly one year.

Aquamarine is like a drop of water enclosing its nucleus.In 10337 of the Guang Era, human beings discovered this place and established the Starry Sky Gate.When the first batch of pioneers landed on the water blue star, they were shocked by the magnificence and wonder of this water world. They built hundreds of space stations around this big water sphere, using the heat energy of the white dwarf as the first energy source, and then from the seawater Tritium is extracted for production.

Humans have created thousands of floating islands on the sea surface of the blue star, cultivated the unique green algae of the planet, provided them to the empire and the republic, and equipped them on every spaceship.

The marine technology of Aquamarine is unique in the universe. The Republic and the Empire once wanted to annex it, but the leader of this planet resolutely rejected the proposal of complete ownership. Human immigrants have formed their own political system. After passing the referendum, they are unwilling to belong to any regime.

[Here is the most expansive, boundless sea. Human immigrants performed a small operation in their genes. Thousands of years later, their respiratory organs had gills, and their skin cells became suitable for living in seawater. ] Opal has a very complicated feeling when looking at the star map, just like reading a person's diary. Although there are only a few lines of words, it seems to be following him and walking through these planets with him.

After entering the country, all alien tourists received a wristband at the space station, and Opal said: "No way, you want to go into the water?"

Raymond buried his head in examining the wristband, fastened it on his thick wrist, and casually raised Opal, saying, "It's strange to pay a deposit?"

There were too many people entering the country, and Opal and Raymond were so crowded by the crowd that they walked out involuntarily, leaving the vast sea beyond the high-altitude landing pad thousands of miles above the sea.

"God..." Opal saw such a magnificent sight for the first time, he had never seen this vast ocean with his own eyes since he was a child.When standing on the edge of the tarmac and looking at the vast sea horizon, the first thought was to think of Rector's spiritual world - the endless sea.

The sky and the sea in front of him are the same color, the birdsong is bursting, and under the sky scattered with white clouds, there are countless strange blue bubbles floating in the sky.

The bubbles are like huge suspended islands covered with blue-green plants. Birds sometimes settle among the plants and follow the suspended islands slowly.

"What's that?" Opal asked.

"A unique creature of Aquamarine." Raymond looked down at the travel regulations, and said, "Flying jellyfish maintains life through transparent light-emitting cells in the body." Opal noticed that a flying jellyfish was passing by more than ten meters away. Cyclone erupted from the bottom of its body, supporting its huge body.

"Let's go." Raymond checked the wristbands of the two.

"Have you been here?" Opal asked.

Raymond nodded, and said, "When I first became a mercenary, my first mission was to come here to find someone...Let me think about it, I had to rent a water-blue shuttle."

Opal's gaze has been following all kinds of strange creatures in the sea, and when he heard that word, he suddenly said: "Aqua blue flying shuttle?!"

"Water Blue Flying Shuttle!!" Opal said.

"Yes, Water Blue Flying Shuttle." Raymond said.

Opal: "Aqua blue flying shuttle!!"

Raymond: "What are you so excited about! Are you crazy?"

Opal opened the E7 almost incoherently, and said, "Is this it? Have a look?"

"Yes, yes, yes." Raymond couldn't laugh or cry: "Is it strange? Small sightseeing for two people, three-purpose flying boat for water, land and air... This is an advertisement from 30 years ago, E7! Turn off your projector! This is very embarrassing!"

Opal was about to pass out. His dream of being on star B-11, when he stayed in that narrow, dark room, his lifelong wish was to fly on the boundless sea in this shuttle.

At that time, he was amazed that there was such a place in the holographic projection advertisement of E7! !How can there be so much water anywhere in the world! !

Later, his mother told him that it was called "Ocean", so Opal wrote it down. He never thought that he would have a day in his life to take this kind of transportation.

When Opal walked into the second-level apron, in front of him was a huge platform covering an area of ​​nearly a thousand square kilometers, with tens of millions of water-blue flying shuttles parked on it, and the outer shell shone with bright sunlight. Sightseeing boats landed, and more set sail.

His eyes reflected the majestic scenery.

Opal: "..."

Lei Meng said seriously: "Deputy head, you need to calm down. Oh, I'm sorry, he's fine, he's just too excited."

It took Opal a long time to calm down the excitement in his heart. Lei Meng took Opal to rent a car. As soon as Opal opened his mouth, Lei Meng immediately said: "Don't talk, keep quiet."

People around looked at Opal with country bumpkin eyes. Raymond bought two bottles of deep-sea sparkling wine and seaweed cheese, and rented a two-person aqua blue shuttle, which flew across the sea, dragging out a white wave .

Shuilan Feishuo has another very romantic nickname on this planet - Sea Breeze Love.

At the beginning, it was specially designed for couples. The position in the cabin can accommodate two people, and all the facilities are in place. The positions of the pilot and the co-pilot are attached together. Opal turned sideways and leaned on Raymond honestly shoulders.

With a smile on his lips, Raymond pressed a button and put a hand on Opal's shoulder.

The window of the cabin was opened, the speed of the water blue shuttle was reduced, and the sea breeze with water vapor blew in, and the love of the sea breeze rose again. Opal yelled "Yoha—" and leaned over to the window and yelled frantically.

Raymond: "..."

Raymond adjusted the height, and the shuttle made a sharp left turn, throwing the Opal lying on the window side upside down, and fell into Raymond's arms.

"Hey, hey! What are you going to do!" Opal yelled.

Lei Meng changed the course, and the shuttle slowly descended to the sea surface without sinking into the water. It moved slowly against the sea water, floating and sinking, and undulating with the waves.

Opal said: "What? Are you looking for an employer now?"

"It's nothing." Raymond said with a smile: "There's still a lot of time, I'll take you for a ride, isn't it the first time?"

The skylight of Sea Breeze Love is lowered and turned into a small boat.

Opal lay horizontally in the cockpit, pillowed on Raymond's thigh, looked at the blue sunny sky and large white clouds above his head, heaved a sigh of relief, and put his feet on the side of the ship, shaking non-stop.

Raymond put his arms behind his head, adjusted the back of the seat, and whistled leisurely.

Several seabirds came and stopped at the bow.

"I'll retire in the future." Opal said, "You can come and live here."

Raymond smiled and said, "Why are you so fond of the new and dislike the old? Last time you said you wanted to retire to Rembrandt Star."

Opal said: "Rembrandt is nothing compared to Shui Lanxing!"

Lei Meng said: "There is also Green Mercury. The three most beautiful planets in the universe, Water Blue, Green Water, and Female Rose."

Opal squinted his eyes, the sun made him feel lazy, and the transparent jellyfish passed the zenith above them, and a gentle wind blew.

The waves were rustling, and neither of them spoke. After a long time, Opal fell asleep.

The transparent window of Love of the Sea Breeze was closed, and the surroundings gradually dimmed. Opal slept very comfortably. After an unknown period of time, Raymond said, "Hey, I'm done."

Opal became dazed and stretched. The scene around him had changed. In the dark blue seabed, there were large groups of luminous objects all over his head, like stars shining brightly in the sky.Schools of shimmering fish swam past, Opal realized that he had entered the sea, and lowered his head to adjust his wristband.

There was a very faint white light around the two of them. This is the light field oxygen suit specially made by Shui Lanxing, which will not hinder the movement and is very convenient.The seawater is filtered through the conversion function of the outer layer, and oxygen enters the protective compartment about one centimeter away from the body to provide breathing.

"Get out of the car." Raymond said, "Try to get used to it."

Opal tried to walk a few steps on the undersea helipad, only to feel that the sound he heard was very characteristic. Water is the sound-conducting medium. Compared with air, the human voice becomes very strange.The optical force field diving suit will automatically adjust the buoyancy and water resistance, which is similar to that on the ground, just like a planet with very little gravity.

Opal said: "It's really interesting."

Lei Meng opened the mercenary diary, projected a projection, and the light screen was rippling in the water, and said: "Go to the Heart of the Ocean Hotel to find the employer... buy a bunch of purple enchantresses. Don't run around, come back. Come here, follow the signs .”

Opal walked forward along the road of broken shells paved on the bottom of the sea, the pupils reflected the luminous bodies suspended in the air around, and found that they were a kind of fluorescent plants, some slowly floated up, and some sank from the sea surface. It collects sunlight from ten meters above the sea surface and then sinks, bringing the light to the bottom of the sea.

Raymond signaled Opal to get on the water blue shuttle, and drove the car towards the platform, where there was a huge pipe, the hole was sealed with brilliant light, the two drove in, the sea water receded with a splash, and returned to the dry area.

"Who are those people?" Opal asked.

Outside the pipe, a group of indigo humanoid creatures with webbed hands and feet swam quickly past, and a female smiled and waved to them, swimming away like a siren.

The Shuilan shuttle stopped at the central hangar. Raymond got off the car, put the mechanical ax back on his back, and said, "I'm a native of Shuilanxing. If I want to wander around the seabed, I still have a lot of time. I'll go to my employer first."

The submarine pipelines built for tourists to play extend in all directions. After all, many alien visitors do not like to soak in seawater for a long time, and most of them choose to enter the dry area to rest.Almost all places are transparent, and you can see the beautiful seabed every time you walk, the corals are thriving, and the manta rays fly over their heads with their six-meter-long wings.

Opal bought a bouquet of purple enchantresses, and soon realized something was wrong: "You take this flower..."

Raymond said blankly: "No, you take it, this is the order of the head."

Opal said: "That's enough!"

The purple enchantress waved its kelp-like leaves, and looked very irritable when it left the water. It kept extending the sucker-like stamens to suck Opal's face. Rip off the neck.

Raymond went to the door of the hotel room where his employer was staying and rang the doorbell, and the little robot opened the door.

A young man said: "You are finally here! My mercenary! Very good! You came so early!"

Raymond said: "Hello, Mr. 'Ban', we are the Smoke and Sword Mercenary Group, please check your identity first..."

Opal was still fighting with the purple enchantress, his nose was sucked, and red mucus was sprayed out from the stamen, which looked like a nosebleed all over his face.

"I knew you would come!" Class said, "Please help me to meet the little Jiejie I've been longing for..."

Raymond: "..."

Opal stepped on the purple enchantress behind them, trying to get its sucker off his thigh.

Ben: "His smile is like a dream, you know I know him, I meet him every night in the dream machine of the fantasies...he's like family to me..."

Raymond: "..."

Opal finally finished off the Purple Enchantress, angrily slamming it against the wall with a comical splash of liquid.

"Love is a puff of smoke blown by sighs, procrastination, time flies, twelve beautiful plants, please come and kiss me..."

Raymond: "Hey, do you have a topographic map?"

Ben: "I believe he loves me deeply too, don't you think?"

Opal: "When will the concert start?"

Raymond: "Tomorrow night, there will be a lot of people, we have to start the investigation in advance."

Opal: "Mr. Employer, please calm down..."

Ben: "Do you know love?"

Opal: "He probably won't kiss you!"

Ben: "You don't even know what love is!"

Raymond: "..."

Opal: "..."

Raymond said: "We will do our best, but we don't guarantee that we can get everything you want. The best situation is... let you spend a short time with him alone, and you have to figure out the rest on your own .”

Ben walked up and down the room, murmuring to himself excitedly: "Even if you don't come, I will try my best to meet him, he will definitely meet me, I know he will..."

Lei Meng and Opal had a black thread, closed the door and came out.

"Go and investigate the backstage and lounge of the Blue Crystal Throne first." Raymond pondered for a moment: "Look for a possible breakthrough route. At that time, we have three tickets, including the restroom, electronic dressing room and changing room. Check his program list , try to solve this problem before the opera begins.”

They boarded the speeding car inside the pipeline, and Aquamarine's tourism industry was well developed, and there were sealed pipelines everywhere on the seabed, leading to the Azurite Throne in the middle of the sea. Only then did Opal realize that he had really underestimated Ledgerson's ostentation.

Before the performance started, the circular theater was already full of water. Each planet’s VIPs have special seats. The theater covers an area of ​​nearly 80 square meters and is divided into [-] floors. The suspended seats are arranged in order from the special class to the [-]th class. .Every three or four steps outside, there are three-purpose super security robots guarding it, which is like an impregnable wall.

Opal and Raymond stood outside the safety zone eating fresh fish and hot dogs, while looking at the entire venue. There were tourists everywhere outside, and many people took pictures outside the posters. Household robots, humans, and intelligent life from various planets were in the venue. There was a long queue outside.

"Can E7 solve the security system?" Raymond asked.

Opal: "I think it's a bit mysterious... If the wrench can do this, it doesn't need to be a mercenary."

Under Opal's instruction, E7 approached the side door with a tick, and looked like a little guy in front of the super security robot. The other side turned on the red light to warn it to go back.

E7 chirped and sent out electric waves, was shocked by the big robot, and ran away smoking.

Opal said: "No."

"Go in from above?" Lei Meng motioned him to look at the top of his head. The Azurite Throne is 50 meters high, and the top sticks out of the sea level. The skylight should be connected to the air above the sea.

Opal said: "There should be guards..."

That's hard, said Raymond, "Then tomorrow..."

Opal suddenly said: "No, I have a solution. Put it on me."

He noticed that several robots were installing the projection bracket outside the theater, so he asked Raymond to take E7 to Gate 5 to prepare. He bent down and hid behind a pile of iron boxes, staring at the 30-meter-high place diagonally opposite .

The engineering robot is going to install twelve new projectors there to project a giant holographic advertisement before tomorrow's concert. The metal melting liquid ray machine is suspended in mid-air above the ground, emitting cast film sound wave resonance towards the weld.

"What do you want to do?" Raymond's voice came from the ear button.

Opal didn't answer, the distance was very far, he wasn't too sure.

He took a deep breath, pushed his hands forward obliquely, with his left and right palms facing each other, closed his eyes, and twisted towards a higher place.

The metal fusion machine suspended in the air fluttered around, and its rays swept towards a security robot guarding in front of No. 4 gate.It immediately turned into a puddle of molten iron, and the crackling electric current ran wildly, and then the battery blew up, blasting its partner out with a bang.

That moment alarmed the machine guards at several nearby doors, and the surrounding robots gathered there one after another. The E7 flew towards the No. 5 door of the theater, found the control panel next to the safe passage, inserted the data cable, and cracked it after a while. Independent security door lock.

Opal's figure was swept away, and the two of them flashed into the safe passage behind the robot.

It was pitch black inside, E7 released lighting light, Opal said: "This way!"

The two hid in the innermost slit, and Lei Meng and Opal's bodies were pressed together tightly, and they did not dare to let out a sound.Outside, a patrolling robot with lights swept back and forth, passing through the passage.

After the robot passed, Opal and Raymond came out, and Raymond stood inside the deep passage, looking at the red light screen suspended on the wall.It is a map for emergency evacuation in case of danger.

"Go this way, hurry up!" Raymond said, "Go around from the left, and the exit is the side door of the [-]th-class seats."

The two ran at high speed, their steps were very light, and after panting for a while, they ended up in a dead end.

Raymond stepped forward to push the door, locked it, and remained motionless.

"Go from above!" Opal said, "There are vents."

Raymond used a long-handled mechanical ax to poke open the skylight of the passageway, and the two of them crawled a long distance one after the other, and saw a light coming from below.

"It's locked from the outside." Raymond said, "Can E7 be opened?"

Opal put the E7 behind the lattice window, E7 stretched out a bunch of tools around the vent to unscrew the security screws, the moment the last screw was sucked away by the magnetic knife, Raymond immediately reached out and grabbed the metal window, Opal One rolled over and landed on the auditorium, making a soft noise.

Immediately afterwards, Raymond stretched out his feet and stepped on Opal's back, causing him to fall down again.

Opal: "!"

Lei Meng made a "shh" motion and pulled him up. The two stood in the theater, and suddenly realized that they had really underestimated the size of the venue.

Surrounded by rows of seats, covering an area of ​​80 square meters, the skylight from the top of the Blue Crystal Throne casts white light everywhere, like a holy place.

They stood in the middle of the seat and became two small black dots.

A human voice came, and it was Legerson's voice.

Lejason: "...At that time, the water polo will spread out layer by layer. The resonance of the chest cavity will pass through the air and finally enter the water. I guarantee that this will be an unforgettable experience..."

A woman's voice: "My dear prince, I never thought that you would be willing to try this pair of gills..."

Lejason: "Aha, it's just a minor operation, and I personally think it's worth it to get this unforgettable opportunity... Jasmine?"

The girl's voice said: "You should rest for a while, it will take about ten hours to get used to it after the operation."

Opal poked his head out to look around, the people on the stage were all black dots, it was impossible to tell who was who, but the voice was unusually clear, as if echoing in his ears.

"Go down?" Opal asked.

Raymond couldn't make up his mind and said, "This way."

The two of them bowed and hid behind the seats, and got a little closer under the cover of the backrests. They were still talking in the middle of the stage, as if there were many people discussing tomorrow's concert.

"God." Opal whispered: "It seems that they are all amazing guys."

Raymond was obviously also a little nervous. The people in the center of the stage could see more clearly. There were a total of ten people, and the most conspicuous one was of course the Prince of Opera, Legason.His attire was not exaggerated at all—a well-ironed white shirt that accentuated his graceful waistline, a pair of casual trousers, and a head of brilliant blond hair that looked like the golden fire of heaven in the sun.

Next was a... woman in military uniform.Perhaps a female is more suitable to describe her. Her hair is very long and her skin is blue. She should be a water blue star.

Legison: "Rou, what do you think?"

The blue banshee thought for a while and smiled, "I guarantee they will think this is very novel..."

Lei Meng whispered: "She is the leader of Shuilanxing, Admiral Rou, and it is said that she is as strong as Azeroth."

Opal recalled the lecture on the wrench, and seemed to mention a long time ago that she owns one of the top mechs in the universe.

"Where's that little girl?" Opal motioned Raymond to look at the girl standing next to Legerson in the middle of the stage.

The girl was wearing a slim white dress with soft brown hair, as if she had a good relationship with Legerson.

Raymond shook his head blankly, and Opal said, "I heard Legerson calling him Jasmine just now, hey, look at that man."

At the edge of the stage, not too far from them, sat a man.

There are three earrings on his ears, his hair stands on end like a prickly head, and he looks careless.With a cigarette in his mouth, he carried a big sword behind his back.

The big sword is very similar to Opal's weapon, and this is the first time that Opal has seen someone with the same type of weapon as himself.

Raymond said: "Who is he? Do you know him?"

Opal shook his head: "His greatsword is similar to mine, but he is offensive, with both blades sharp, while I am more defensive...one blade with a sharp edge, and the blunt blade for defense and attack..."

A voice came from behind, and Lei Meng immediately said: "Hide, hurry up."

The two turned over and hid under the auditorium at the same time. A robot scanned the seats line by line. Legison was still talking with Rou on the stage. People come.

"What's the matter?" Jasmine asked.

The person in charge said: "It's a little accident outside, I'm afraid someone will sneak in and eavesdrop."

The man jumped off the stage, smoking a cigarette, and followed behind Jasmine. The three of them stopped in the aisle next to the auditorium where Opal and Raymond were hiding.

Man: "Go back, leave it to us."

Jasmine said: "Who told you 'we'."

Legison said, "What's the matter, Urka?"

The man named Urka shrugged, and the person in charge left. Jasmine glanced at him, turned and returned to the stage.The Prince of Opera and Admiral Rou continued to talk, while Urka sat down in the row where Opal and Raymond were hiding.

The two turned their heads and saw Urka's boots stepping on the ground, shaking casually.

Opal: "..."

Opal made a fighting gesture, twitched his eyebrows, and pointed outside, motioning for me to lead him away, and you take the opportunity to run away.Raymond shook his palm, signaling to stop messing around.

Opal thought for a while, closed his eyes, and radiated the power of faith, trying to influence the person sitting on top of his head...to get him to get up and leave.

He didn't know if this method was effective, but he just concentrated and repeated silently in his heart, Urka, get up, go away, get out of here.

Urka moved uneasily, and Legison's voice in the distance stopped abruptly, abruptly, and there was a brief moment of embarrassment.

Legerson said, "Oh dear Rou, I think I might have to go back and rest...for a while."

Rou: "Are you uncomfortable?"

Legison: "It's okay, it's just..."

Rou: "I'll ask the doctor to visit you."

Legison glanced at Urka in the stands, and said casually: "Then, thank you very much, and I hope everything goes well tomorrow."

The people on the stage dispersed, and Jasmine followed Legerson to leave. Urka stopped shaking her feet. Half a minute later, Urka said, "Come out, where did the thief come from?"

A hand was stretched out from under the seat, and Urka turned around in an instant, slamming a sword on the ground, Lei Meng turned out without a sound, swung the mechanical ax from behind, Urka swung the big sword, When, when the two strikes sparked, Opal immediately joined the battle group. Urka had expected that when both hands were divided, the mechanical sword immediately split into two!

Urka's mother sword in his left hand resisted Lei Meng's mechanical axe, and the sub-sword in his right hand swept away, and collided with Opal violently, with surprisingly strong force, holding a big sword in each hand like a fan, and dealing with two people at the same time was unexpectedly Casual, easy to do.

Raymond said, "Run!"

Opal and Raymond fought and retreated, but Urka put away his weapon, smoked a cigarette, and smiled.

Surrounded by more than a dozen super security robots behind them, focused rays shot from all directions, and they were fixed on Opal and Raymond. As long as they were shot, they would be blasted into pieces.
