Chapter 671
671 The famous detective macaw
Link’s expression did not change. After the dimensional Codex’s boasting, he said calmly,”Everyone only needs to listen to 10% of what it says.”
“Helen, you can open the ancient scroll of life now.”
helen couldn’t wait to open the ancient scroll, and she found that the trinity sealing energy was still there, but it had completely lost its effect.
Helen was dumbfounded when she read the message.
The others also gathered around to see the epic-like events recorded in the ancient scroll of life.
Although there were only a few strokes, the vastness and danger of the universe were vividly displayed.
After reading the content of the ancient scroll, Helen concluded, ” “Head of state, are we going to visit the hometown of the five sages and find the clues they left behind?”
“Smart. But before that, we still have to do the things at hand and gather information. with our current strength, it’s still too much for us to investigate these five places. it’s better to go after we’re a little stronger.”
“Even with the Black Throne?” Helen couldn’t help but be surprised.
“Slightly less interesting.”
Helen immediately understood what link meant. The battle with the aliens had made her think that their strength was not bad in the universe. However, Link’s “slightly lacking” doused her hopes. It turned out that they still had a long way to go before they could become a pillar of support.
Helen, penny, Troy, the ancient scroll of life is kept and guarded with top-secret information. No public display is allowed. You must also get my permission to conduct research visits, understand?”
Link had used the highest level of protection on the ancient Book of Life. After all, this ancient scroll represented the authority of the S-rank mission in version 3.0.
If the scroll was lost, Link’s mission would come to a standstill.
On the other side, the treasure-hunting mouse and the five mice Secret Service Squad returned to the rest area with the original scroll of life.
In the guard post outside the resting area, Tang Jiu and soda pork ball were yawning one after another. Their eyelids were fighting each other, and their bodies were swaying left and right as if they were drunk.
hey, don’t fall asleep. The new shift will be here in half an hour. Tang Jiu shook the soda pork ball beside him. However, soda pork ball was already in a daze, and with a slight shake, his entire body swayed left and right uncontrollably like a spring.
The two of them didn’t notice that treasure-hunting mouse and the five mice had disappeared into the shadows from the corner. The soldier in charge of The Night Watch was in the same state as the two players, and he was so sleepy that his eyelids were fighting.
The treasure-hunting mouse and the five mice sneaked into the room where they had stolen the scroll of life. Water Rat and bamboo rat, who were the largest and strongest, and the others pushed against the wall with all their might before they managed to stuff the scroll of life back into the compartment of their shoes.
By the time they were done, the six rats were already exhausted and sweating profusely. They all leaned against the wall and gasped for breath.
Suddenly, the person on the bed turned over and moved. The six mice stood up at the same time. Treasure-hunting mouse made a shushing gesture, and all the mice squeezed into a dark corner, covering each other’s mouth and nose, not making a single sound.
Batins couldn’t sleep well at night, feeling that something was going to happen.
When he woke up in the middle of the night, the first thing he did was to lower his head and check the interlayer of his shoes.
After opening the inner layer and seeing the ancient scroll of life, he heaved a sigh of relief, ” “It seems like I’m overthinking it, Yingluo.”
after making sure that the item was still there, batins ‘tensed nerves finally relaxed. he lay back on the bed and let out a long moan as if he had been released. not long after, the steady snoring gradually sounded, and the rats hiding in the corner heaved a sigh of relief. Then, under the quick command of treasure-hunting mouse, they left quickly.
As soon as the mice left batins ‘room, they suddenly heard a rustling sound from the other side.
Driven by curiosity, the treasure-hunting mouse decided to go and take a look.
He gave the five mice Secret Service Squad a series of complicated hand gestures, and the six mice moved forward in an orderly manner to approach the target.
Very quickly, in a dark corner, they saw Yingying.
The next day.
The macaw and the Silver Hand came to the rest area again.
The moment it saw the mercenary group, the macaw spread its wings and shouted,””Everyone, we meet again ~”
Batins forced out a smile, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
This fat parrot was really familiar with others!
Looking back at his own mercenary group, there were actually quite a few people who were sincerely clapping their hands in welcome. Among them, the one who clapped the loudest and the most frequently was none other than lie Fu. He bared his teeth and laughed happily, looking at silver hand as if he was looking at his own family.
When batins saw this scene, he couldn’t help but sigh. when the people’s hearts were in a mess, it would be difficult to lead the team.
As soon as the macaw’s butt touched the sofa, it went straight to the point, ” “I’ve already asked the ruler about Captain batins” question yesterday. I can give you a formal answer here. Your transport ship is heavily damaged, and it will take some time to repair it. ”
Just as batins was about to speak, he was quickly interrupted by the macaw. although the amount of work was huge, we finally managed to repair the transport ship after all of our overtime work. Only some minor details were left.
Batins was overjoyed. He did not expect the mechanical fortress to be able to repair the medium transport ship in such a short time.
Even if the ship was handed over to the starport for repair, it would take at least a month to get out of the ship with such damage. It could only be said that it was worthy of being an advanced civilization. The speed of restoration was far beyond what a low-level civilization like them could imagine.
“We’re already very grateful that you saved us from the aliens. We won’t bother you with the rest of the details. We’ll repair it when we get to starport. Old Jin, you also know that we still have a mission to complete and we still need to report the results to the Rothwell Foundation. It’s not good for us to stay any longer.” batins said in an almost pleading tone.
The macaw pretended to think for a while and suddenly said, ” “Since you’ve said so, it should be true that you’re not used to staying here and you’re eager to return home. It just so happened that the head of state had said that if you wanted to leave, he could send you to the nearest intergalactic gate. But before that, the head of state wants to meet you one last time and give you one last gift.”
The corners of batins ‘mouth curled up, and his smile almost reached his ears. He had never thought that things would progress so smoothly. Could it be that his previous thoughts were unnecessary, and the higher civilizations really did not have any covetous thoughts about them?
there’s no need for gifts. We’ve been pestering you for several days and are already very worried. It’s not appropriate to accept gifts.
alright, since you’re so reluctant, then I’ll let this matter go. I hope you don’t regret it ~”the macaw raised its little brows, and the expression on its face was also quite funny.
For a moment, batins was truly regretful. He did not know what this gift from this high-leveled civilization was. if it was something powerful, wouldn’t he be able to rise to the top and dominate the entire starport?
However, on second thought, batins realized that the Roseville Foundation had already given him quite a generous reward. He should be content with what he had and not let his greed cause more trouble. He should not end up in a situation where both sides would not benefit.
“then may i ask when the head of state will meet us?”
“Since you’re so eager to return, let’s do it tonight. I’ll arrange for the head of state to meet you tonight. After that, you can board the ship and leave.” The macaw waved its hand.
batins forcefully suppressed the joy in his heart, and his mouth was still saying some hypocritical words.
Aiya, I really don’t know how to thank you guys. If it weren’t for your help, our mercenary group might have been completely wiped out.
Since everything had been explained and he would be able to leave later, batins was no longer in a good mood and began to chat with the macaw about everything. The macaw had always been good at chatting. Now that the two of them had let down their guard, they were chatting happily. It was simply a pity that they had met too late.
The macaw and the Silver Hand’s original purpose was to hear about the universe. Batins had led the mercenary group to travel around the mowall Galaxy and had experienced many battles. He had a lot of things in his stomach. One was speaking happily, while the other was flattering, just like a pair of confidants.
“I’m so angry, I didn’t get to know old Jin earlier. It’s rare to find such a friend in the universe.” There was a dejected look on batins ‘face. it’s a pity that we’re going to separate after knowing each other for such a short time. I don’t know when we’ll meet again, Yingluo.
The macaw patted batins on the shoulder and said, ” it’s fine. Who knows, maybe the next time you guys encounter a problem, we’ll suddenly appear again? ”
Batins chuckled, treating the macaw’s words as mere courtesy.
“The universe is so big, and your target isn’t here. I’m afraid the chance of meeting you again is slim. If we really have the chance to meet in the mowall star cluster, I’ll definitely treat you to a drink at Stellaris!”
The macaw’s breathing was heavy. It glanced at batins and said, ” “You’re the leader of the batins mercenary group, and all you can do is pay for a cup, isn’t that a little too stingy? Even lie Fu is more magnanimous than you, I just heard him say that he’s going to treat the Silver Hand to a drink!”
his words caused batins to cover his face and apologize, while the rest of the rest area burst into laughter.
“To be honest, I don’t even know the name of your civilization after being treated so well by you for a few days. If I’m lucky enough to meet you again in the future, I can’t be considered a friend if I don’t know your civilization.”
“You can call this big metal lump the mechanical fortress or the Black Throne. As for our civilization, I’ve already mentioned it before. It’s a level 0 wasteland civilization.”
“who are you lying to?” batins laughed. A level-0 civilization used the Black Throne to travel through the universe and destroyed the power sails of the Pirates? The mechanical fortress form is definitely a disguise, and you must have some secret mission to carry out, otherwise you wouldn’t have appeared in such a remote corner of the galaxy.”
However, just as batins finished speaking, he suddenly froze.
That was because he noticed that the macaw’s small eyes were shimmering with a bright light, and the Silver Hand’s gaze had also become deep, staring at him as if he was his prey, as if waiting for an order.
The atmosphere that was filled with laughter and laughter just now suddenly froze, as if the air had been frozen.
Batins knew that he had said the wrong thing. He had been too relaxed and had said what was in his heart.
He had exposed the other party’s secret. If they were to pursue this matter, they would probably have to kill them all to silence them.
Everyone in the batins mercenary group froze, and bean-sized beads of sweat seeped out of their foreheads. At this moment, they felt that their lives didn’t belong to them.
the macaw held a glass of wine and leaned towards batins like a boss. it put its arm around batins ‘shoulder and laughed.”What are you talking about? we are a wasteland planet from a level 0 civilization. I’m afraid that you’ve drunk too much and started to talk nonsense, right?”
Batins hurriedly nodded and agreed, that’s right, that’s right. I remembered wrong. It was indeed a level 0 civilization.
the macaw nodded in satisfaction, and with a promising look in its eyes, it leaned in and whispered, ” “Old BA, I treat you as a friend, so I’m giving you a piece of advice. The less you know, the safer you will be. No matter what you hear about the mechanical fortress or the Black Throne in the future, remember that we are a level 0 civilization, the abandoned planet. Do you understand?”
at this moment, batins was so shocked by the macaw’s aura that he couldn’t speak. he nodded repeatedly.
hehe, that’s right. Since you’re drunk, let’s not drink anymore. Let’s play a game together! The macaw flapped its wings and attracted everyone’s attention.
The aura instantly disappeared, and the members of the batins mercenary group only felt the pressure on their shoulders disappear, and they couldn’t help but let out a long breath.
When they heard that the macaw wanted to play a game, everyone’s mood was high and they echoed one after another. The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became warm.
“What game?”
“This game is called” you think and I guess.”Old BA, you think about something now, and I guess. If I guess it right, you nod. How about it?” Batins was shocked, he thought that the macaw could read minds.
But in the next second, the macaw pretended to do something and kept talking about ‘mommy’ for a long time. It even looked a little weird.
Then, he suddenly opened his eyes and said, ” you were thinking that even though you survived the Raiders, you would have to return to starport immediately to submit your mission. But this attack seems to be a lot of coincidences. If you think about it carefully, it feels like it was planned in advance. You want to find the spy in the mercenary group, right? ”
Batins was stunned for a moment. To be honest, he didn’t think that way at all. But when she met the macaw’s determined and serious eyes, she had mixed feelings. He had felt the macaw’s aura earlier because of his slip of the tongue. Now that the atmosphere had just eased, if he said no, the scene would definitely fall to the freezing point again. On the other hand, the macaw’s mention of this matter had also aroused his doubts.
Batins looked surprised and covered his mouth with his hand.”How do you know that you can really read minds?”
Seeing their leader’s genuine expression, the members below the stage were in an uproar. They were all whispering to each other. Could it be that this attack was not an accident, but a carefully planned one?
“do you want to know who this spy is?” The macaw asked with a smile.
For some reason, batins nodded his head.
The macaw suddenly put on a pair of glasses and stretched out its wings to hold the glasses. Suddenly, two cold lights flashed through the lenses and the room was filled with excited music.
The spy was … Him!
The macaw pointed at a member with a tender face.
immediately, everyone’s eyes focused on this person, revealing an expression of disbelief.
