“Cosmic travel is really boring.” Nante looked at the empty space.
“You can choose to hibernate. We can’t enter the Red River Virtual World, but we can still use the hibernation device,” Wang Ye said with a smile.
“Forget it, I’ll continue cultivating.” Nante stretched.
“Why aren’t you practicing your spear anymore?” Wang Ye was curious.
“I’m going to break through to the cosmic level first,” Nante said. “According to Brother Tieshan, a cosmic-level warrior’s body will merge with the cosmic and one’s comprehension of the world will be different from the past. Whether it’s cultivating a higher-level spear technique or creating one, the effects will be better.”
“What’s your Brain Expansion Rate now?” Wang Ye asked.
“Just over 60%. It’s too slow…” Nante looked enviously at Wang Ye absorbing the energy crystals. “You have it good. The absorption efficiency of energy crystals is much higher than mine.”
“You’re not an ability user, and you don’t even know the Compression Spell, so even if we give you energy crystals, you can’t break them down,” Wang Ye said.
“Fine. I can only take it slow.” Nante let out a long sigh and placed his hands on an energy stone.
As Wang Ye absorbed the energy crystals, he opened his interface.
Perfection level 7 genetic warrior, 64%. Level 7 New Star ability user, 95%.
He was close to breaking through as an ability user.
Energy crystals were the crystallization of pure cosmic energy, so the absorption of the psyche and star core was faster. The body needed the combat energy to fuse with the cells, so its improvement was not that fast.
If it was a cosmic-level warrior, the effect of absorbing energy crystals would be greatly reduced.
“There are still five cosmic days left.” Wang Ye looked at the time.
They were not far from the wormhole.
However, there seemed to be a problem with Yunlan Cosmic Logistics. They had been disconnected for three cosmic days.
In the main control room.
“They were robbed by cosmic pirates?” Munro Tieshan was stunned.
“Yes, that’s what Yunlan Cosmic Logistics said. I’m not sure about the details. They’ve already arranged for the goods to be re-delivered, but they’ll have to delay their arrival by 10 cosmic days.”
Isn’t Yunlan Cosmic Logistics one of the 18 top human factions?” Wang Ye couldn’t help but ask.
This was too uncool!
A supreme organization had been robbed by a group of pirates?
“It’s not that Yunlan Cosmic Logistics is weak, but that the cosmic pirates have their heads on their belts. They’re not afraid of anything. Let alone Yunlan Cosmic Logistics, if there’s enough profit, they’ll even dare to rob the 7 human supreme factions,” The female assistant said.
Wang Ye sighed.
This was much braver than the pirates who were recruited by the navy.
As the saying goes, barefoot people are not afraid of those who wear shoes.
“These pirates are so poor that they even want quasi-cosmic monsters!” Munro Tieshan gritted his teeth.
“Colony planets, mineral planets, starships, bases, and energy crystals, as long as they have value, they want them. They don’t care if they’re wanted or not,” The female assistant said, “The Ancient Battlefield Milky Way opened not long ago, and the profits are abundant. Many pirate groups have swarmed into it. However, robbing Yunlan Cosmic Logistics is indeed bold.”
Munro Tieshan frowned deeply.
“Maybe it was just a coincidence. The location where Yunlan Cosmic Logistics was robbed is near the wormhole,” Wang Ye said. “This group of pirates might have been preparing to sweep through Colony Planet 996.”
It is also possible that they were being chased by cosmic adventurers or attacked by other forces. Everyone wants to beat up the cosmic pirates. There are too many possibilities,” The female assistant said.
“The problem isn’t with the cosmic pirates but the fact that we don’t have enough time,” Munro Tieshan said in a deep voice.
The female assistant nodded. “Yunlan Cosmic Logistics will need to delay for 10 cosmic days to reallocate the goods. This is fatal to you. The new supervisor of the Munro family, Munro Jhonas, has already set off. He will arrive at the Moon Base in six cosmic days. At that time, your plan will most likely be exposed.”
“What if we strike first and gain the upper hand?” Wang Ye pondered. “What will happen if we kill Munro Jhonas and his people?”
“The Hongqi Supernet will record everything,” The female assistant said. “If that happens, before you arrive at the wormhole, the Munro family’s experts will pilot the nuclear-powered starship and arrive first. You will not be able to escape.”
The nuclear-powered starship’s speed reached one-tenth of the speed of light, allowing it to enter a wormhole and perform a mid-distance cosmic warp.
“Why is this guy in such a hurry to take office?” Munro Tieshan clenched his fists tightly. “If only he could be a little late, just a little!”
“Because he has to complete the handover of the colony planet before the arrival of the Colony Inspector and leave a good impression,” The female assistant said. “The Colony Inspector has just finished inspecting Colony Planet 994. The next one is Colony Planet 995. Each colony will be inspected for about 3-4 cosmic days, so he’ll arrive at Colony Planet 996 in 7 to 8 cosmic days.”
Wang Ye was slightly stunned. “So fast? Isn’t the Colony Inspector on a light sail starship?”
“Of course not. A Colony Inspector is an excellent job. It has great power and rich profits, and the one holding the position is either rich or of noble status. Also, it takes a lot of time to travel to the various colony planets,” The female assistant said. “So, the starship that he is flying is at least the standard nuclear-powered starship.”
Wang Ye looked at the female assistant. “Do you know his details?”
The female assistant was silent for a while, “Don’t do anything stupid, he has a cosmic level 9 personal guard.”
“Are there many of them?” Wang Ye asked.
“He’s piloting a well-equipped nuclear-powered starship. The materials are expensive, so the starship is small and can’t carry too many people.” The female assistant looked at Wang Ye and paused. “You’ll completely anger the Munro family if you do this.”
“It doesn’t make much of a difference. Killing one is killing, killing ten is also killing. There’s no turning back. Will this implicate Blue Planet?” Wang Ye asked.
“No,” The female assistant said. “The colony planet is nominally owned by the Munro family, but the real power is still in the hands of the Chimeng family. The colony planets are under the unified control of the Hongqi Supernet. If the central control department does not give up power, the Munro family will not be able to do anything. They are not even allowed to enter the colony planet.”
To prevent abuse of power for personal gain, the central government controlled everything.
Wang Ye nodded. “That’s good. It’s actually better this way. Offending the Munro family is better than offending Yunlan Cosmic Logistics. It’s already a fight to the death anyway.”
Munro Tieshan looked at Wang Ye. “A well-equipped nuclear-powered starship also needs to use the Hongqi Supernet’s accurate positioning system before it can perform a cosmic jump or cosmic warp.”
“We’ll get rid of it then.” Wang Ye didn’t hesitate. “According to the previous plan, after we leave the Solar System through the wormhole, we will enter Colony System 995, which is still within the territory of the Munro Family. Because the location of the wormhole is fixed, it’ll be very easy for us to be locked onto. Therefore, it’s still very dangerous.”
“But according to the current plan, we won’t go through the wormhole. After we seize the well-equipped nuclear-powered starship, we will leave at one-tenth of the normal speed of light. As long as we enter the maze-like Oort Cloud, we will be free. Even if we want to leave the Solar System, it will only take ten years.”
To Cosmic Lifeforms, ten years was very short.
A perfection Evolver, which was a New Star Lifeform, had a maximum lifespan of 1000 years.
For Cosmic Lifeforms, the highest life span was 10,000 years.

Final preparations!
Wang Ye and Nante did their best.
On the sixth cosmic day after leaving the Moon, Wang Ye’s ability user path was the first to break through to level 8.
His ability capacity increased greatly, his psyche expanded, and even his star core increased by a level!
80%!
90%!
100%!
On the 10th cosmic day, after arriving at the wormhole, Wang Ye successfully broke through to become a perfection level 8 genetic warrior!
As his body’s strength increased, his ability to sense and fuse with the cosmic also increased.
His combat prowess increased by a level as well.
At the same time, the energy crystals were almost exhausted.
It was expensive, and even a supervisor like Munro Jose didn’t buy much.
Of course, the other reason was that he didn’t consume many energy crystals. He might not even have cultivated for a few cosmic days in a year, so it would’ve been a waste no matter how much he bought.
The starship landed on the satellite.
Munro Tieshan sent the location to the Colony Inspector and soon received a reply from the latter’s assistant.
“Done. They will arrive in a cosmic day.” Munro Tieshan relaxed and let out a light sigh.
The idea was very bold but indeed feasible. It was even better than the first plan!
If everything went smoothly, although he would be charged with killing the Colony Inspector, the Ancient Battlefield Milky Way was so big. As long as he left the territory of the Munro family, where could he not go?
He could return to the military camp and fight alongside his brothers. He could kill demons and devils to accumulate battle credits and increase strength!
One day, he would be able to buy his hometown!
“Are you planning to return to the military camp, Brother Tieshan?” Wang Ye laughed.
“Yes.” Munro Tieshan nodded. “If it wasn’t for Jose forcing me to come back and be the captain of the guards to guard the colony planet, 1 might have been promoted to centurion by now. Of course, it’s also possible that I’ll die on an alien planet.”
He laughed heartily. “It’s just as well. 1 came back and met a like-minded brother like you. I didn’t come here in vain!”
“Same. It’s fate,” Wang Ye said with a smile. “If you hadn’t happened to go to Blue Planet, we might have become enemies.”
Munro Tieshan revealed two rows of big white teeth as he laughed heartily. “Then you might already be dead.”
“That might not be the case.” Wang Ye raised his eyebrows. “I’ve already killed two cosmic-level humans.”
Munro Tieshan shook his head. “Jose and Wumin can only be considered normal soldiers in the camp. At the cosmic level, they are at the bottom.”
“Is the military camp that strong?” Wang Ye’s interest was piqued. “I’d like to go and take a look.”
Munro Tieshan laughed loudly and placed his hand on Wang Ye’s shoulder. “After we pass this stage, the two of us brothers will go to the military camp together! With my recommendation, you can enter without taking the assessment. Of course, with your ability, passing the benchmark assessment shouldn’t be a problem.”
Wang Ye smiled. “It’s a deal, then!”
He knew himself.
His talent as an ability user was average in the cosmic, so it was impossible for him to join the 18 top human factions.
There was no need to consider his warrior talent.
That being said, he had a special talent – As long as he killed enough demons, he could obtain potential points to improve himself!
What other place could be more suitable for him than the Human Race’s War Military Camp?
Not to mention that the military camp only valued combat strength and ignored status.
Once they entered the military camp, they would no longer need to fear the Chimeng family.
After that, everything would depend on strength!
“By the way, why don’t I see your big brother?” Munro Tieshan suddenly asked.
A question mark slowly appeared above Wang Ye’s head.
His big brother was watching videos at home.
“Nante.” Munro Tieshan added.
Good heavens, he just learned the cosmic common language and he was already taking advantage of him?
Did he forget how he “died” of embarrassment?
“He’s in the midst of tutoring, familiarizing himself with operating the Munro Fighter Jet N0.1 in preparation for tomorrow,” Wang Ye said.
“Well, I hope everything goes well tomorrow.” Munro Tieshan raised his head, and the image of his wife and child appeared in his tiger eyes.
He missed them.
“It will.” Wang Ye also raised his head, and beautiful figures seemed to appear before his eyes.
He missed them too..
