Across Deep Space: Four Men and a Play

"boom!"

After a loud bang was heard in the training ground, a huge wandering body covered with magma and debris collapsed and turned into star-like dust and disappeared.

"It's still close."

Xia Jiumeng frowned, holding her dislocated ribs, walked to the supply area that popped out of the wall, took out the healing potion, and gave herself an injection. The piercing pain was slightly relieved.

Before she reached the critical point, she didn't even have the chance to use the strengthening potion.

Now she can already deal with ordinary A-level wanderers with her physical strength alone, but she still hasn't broken through to the A level.

With constant high-intensity combat and the assistance of potions, she only managed to stabilize her level to B+, which still required a large amount of healing potions and strengthening potions, as well as the effects of constant biological assistance simulated in the training ground.

Without these, she would have to fight countless stray bodies to stabilize herself, and there might even be fatal dangers.

After all, a real wandering body will not just fight you in hand-to-hand combat.

However, the wandering body simulated in the training ground is not weaker than the real wandering body, and is even stronger to a certain extent.

It seems that fighting on the same level has little effect on her. If she wants to improve again, she can only take the risk and try fighting against opponents of higher levels.

But that was a bit too dangerous. While Xia Jiumeng was thinking, a prompt sound suddenly rang out from the training ground.

[Your appointment time has expired. Do you want to continue training? ]

Xia Jiumeng clicked no.

It's time to go.

Time flies so fast on the training ground. It feels like we have only been training for a short time but five days have already passed.

Let’s go to Tianxing first. We can talk about promotion after we come back.

After exiting the virtual battlefield, the dense forest around Xia Jiumeng disappeared and turned back into an empty light gray room.

The heavy door made of special material slowly opened, and a white kitten jumped in.

"Master~"

"Have you finished your training?"

"Well, for now." Xia Jiumeng picked up the kitten and held it in her arms, rubbing it.

Looking at Dongyun Xiajiu who was standing at the door, he said, "Just follow me out from now on."

"Okay, boss." Dongyun nodded.

Although he is a mechanical life form, he looks no different from a human being and is even handsome and elegant. He wears a straight black and white classic suit and has a neat backcombed hair, giving him the look of an industry elite.

Compared to the beautiful but not very obedient mermaid, it is much better.

It’s still more convenient for our own people to use.

It seems like I haven't paid attention to those mermaids for a long time. I asked Dongyun, "What's the situation of those mermaids now?"

"They are now in charge of watering and planting in the medicinal herb cultivation area."

Dongyun said that he was arranging and following up on all current affairs within the base.

"Honest?"

“No problems have been found so far.”

"That's fine, but be careful."

"It's the boss."

Xia Jiumeng did not make malicious speculations about the mermaids. Although she had previously communicated that she saved them because of a deal, those mermaids had suffered so much torture, and coupled with their past of near genocide, they would probably want to drink their blood and eat their flesh for humans. She did not think that she could gain their trust and friendship with just a few words.

It's fine as long as she can work honestly. She will send them away soon anyway. As long as these guys don't cause trouble in the meantime, it's fine.

"Let's go."

Xia Jiumeng took Dongyun and Xiaoqi back to the Linkong suburbs through the accelerated channel and then drove to the Yunzhonglie station in the city center, which was the station heading to Tianxing City.

After passing security check, they got on the bus smoothly.

But because they brought their pets, they could only reluctantly upgrade to a cabin with a private room.

After all, it is a train, and space expansion technology has not been developed here. The so-called luxury cabin is actually just a small room converted from three rows of seats.

However, the service is still good. At least there are plenty of tea and snacks in the room, as well as two sets of simple care tools and disposable slippers.

Even though it's only a few hours' drive.

"material."

Xia Jiumeng put Xiaoqi down and started to do business.

Dongyun took out a briefcase and said, "This is the chip file for Double Star II. Before leaving, I contacted Mr. Da and agreed on the transaction chips."

"He agreed, but you need to go in person."

It can be seen that Mr. Da only trusts Xia Jiumeng. Even though Dongyun is the confidant introduced to Mr. Da by Xia Jiumeng, he still does not accept transactions with anyone other than her.

Dongyun took out another pile of documents.

"These are the relevant information about the strange explosion case in Tianxing."

"The parents of that family were employees at an experimental base related to EVER and disappeared inexplicably. There were only two children at home when the explosion occurred."

"One child is missing and the other is seriously injured and receiving treatment. They are still in danger."

"The person who did it was a man named Qiao Zhen, a former navigator of the Far Space Fleet. It's said that two months ago, his wife and daughter died in the confinement room of the fleet base for no apparent reason. He believed that someone from the fleet was responsible, so he bombed the family in an attempt to protest against the fleet."

Xia Jiumeng “?”

"What's that family's connection to the fleet? Why would they bomb someone else's house if they have a grudge against the fleet?"

What the hell is this?

"The experimental base where the family that was bombed worked has close ties with the fleet." Dong Yun turned the information to the page about the family that was bombed.

It’s not that computers are difficult to use, but it’s human inertia. The most important information is often not in the data port but stored in paper or word of mouth.

Therefore, Xia Jiumeng always likes to read important things in paper form.

Xia Jiumeng looked at the two children with similar looks and clear eyes in the information in front of her and lightly tapped one of the boys with her fingertips.

"Is this the boy who is missing?"

"Yes, boss. Coupled with the power fluctuations left at the scene, many forces are looking for him, especially Ever."

Dongyun handed over another document.

"This is Ever's headquarters at Tianxing, and the newly released scientific research project on core energy and human symbiosis."

As a biotechnology and energy company, ever seems to be very persistent in the transformation and evolution of human beings.

"Is that all?" Xia Jiumeng raised her eyebrows as she looked at the little information on the paper.

"Yes, we've recently discovered that we're unable to access the data and ports of many forces at will, and we're even experiencing sudden interruptions and losses."

Dongyun explained.

He couldn't quite understand this. Logically speaking, their technology and network level were tens of millions of times higher than that of the outside world, so there shouldn't be any restrictions. Before, they could enter and exit any port as if it were no one's business, but now many ports were inexplicably lost and out of control.

They traced back and found that either they were discovered or targeted, or they were inexplicably lost.

Even if I contact Xiaoqi, the problem cannot be solved.

Xia Jiumeng understood what was going on the moment she heard this and said calmly, "If you can't find anything, forget it. Just keep an eye on Ever and focus on our group. Oh, and warn them not to tell anyone about the base."

Dongyun nodded.

It seems that the world consciousness has regained a lot of strength.

Xia Jiumeng was not unhappy about the restrictions, but was quite happy instead.

This proves that the previously agreed plan was correct, and that the world can indeed be saved by retrieving the fragments.

It is normal to be restricted. According to the rules, the experimental base she brought, including Dongyun and everything else, should not appear in this world, but the world was on the verge of collapse before and naturally had no ability to restrict or constrain it.

Afterwards, she made an agreement with the world consciousness that she would not do anything that overly threatened the world, but in the short term, at least until the world consciousness recovered and the upper limit was raised, nothing in the experimental base would be easily exposed to the outside world.

She will advance step by step according to her own sense and will not disturb the balance.

As for genetic drugs and other things, they were all carried out with the tacit approval of the world consciousness, because the development direction of the world was towards technology and superpowers, and her promotion was not beyond the scope.

Not to mention that all her potions and technological products are made by improving materials from this world, so the gap is much smaller.

Even though the space is now open and she can get more things, she has always kept a low profile.

Speaking of ever, Dongyun said, "Boss, Ever's behavior in Linkong has been a little strange recently. Many of the people who were originally stationed in the dark around you have inexplicably withdrawn. Although there are still people watching, it seems that they are not as frequent as before."

I feel like giving up but not completely.

"However, Linkong and other cities have recently seen a number of inexplicable attacks by stray entities. These entities are very violent and their power is extremely unstable."

Although we cannot break into some advanced organizational systems at will now, it is still very easy to know some information that is deeper than that of ordinary people.

See, this is the benefit of technology. Without going out or even showing up, you can easily know a lot of things with just one device.

Dongyun and his friends don't even need any equipment. As long as they think about it, they can use their chips (consciousness) to connect to any place with equipment or signal network to obtain information.

"It's okay. They don't pose much of a threat to me right now. But you asked me to investigate those attacks. I suspect there's something wrong with those stray bodies."

She is no longer afraid of being caught by those guys.

Although her physical condition is not good, her mental strength has returned.

"Good boss."

After the topic ended, Xia Jiumeng asked Dongyun to destroy all the information except the binary star chip, and then lay back in the chair and rest his eyes.

Xiao Qi curled up quietly on her legs.

Dongyun took out his notebook and started working like a model worker.

As Xia Jiumeng's current life assistant, he has a lot to do.

In addition to arranging the affairs of the base remotely, it is also necessary to make arrangements and preparations for all matters related to Xia Jiumeng's trip in advance.
