Chapter 166: A Request
Chapter 166: A Request
The three star system fleets of the Earth Empire have left hyperspace and entered the 17th sector of the 65th star field in the 39th quadrant, awaiting the fleets of the Pandora and Balu civilizations.
In the 65th star region, numerous long ribbons of light have been observed, with some gaps in them. Many galaxies originating from the 64th star region are accelerating towards the 65th star region, and these accelerating galaxies are automatically approaching the gaps in the various long ribbons of light in the 65th star region.
Tianxing-3 detected that, 20 million light-years away from the three star fleets, the Small Magellanic Cloud and the Triangulum Galaxy were rushing toward the gap between the two cosmic walls in the 65th Star Region at a speed of 3c0. In fact, the more than 8,000 cosmic walls in the 64th Star Region had already moved toward the 65th Star Region to fill the gaps in those long ribbons of light.
While the surrounding galaxies were moving rapidly, the three star systems of the Earth Empire remained largely still. This anomaly, as expected, attracted the attention of "meddlesome people."
Three fleets detected faint hyperspace oscillations, and four star system fleets entered normal space a day later, facing the three star systems of the Earth Empire from afar.
The three star system fleets received hyperspace communication information.
"Greetings, this is the Luoqian Empire Fleet of the Jade Fox Supercluster of the Armenian Cosmic Great Wall. I am the fleet commander, Hanlock. May I ask who you are?"
Pana was overjoyed to learn that the Luoqian Empire's fleet also came from the Armenian Cosmic Great Wall.
Zhou Yuan responded with a hyperspace communication message: "Luoqian Empire Fleet, greetings. This is the Earth Empire Fleet of the Laniakea Cosmic Great Wall Virgo Supercluster. I am fleet commander Zhou Yuan." He then added a note.
"Laniakea? Oh, you're our neighbor. Nice to meet you."
"Nice to meet you. However, our fleet also has a representative of an intelligent civilization, which is closer to you than you are; they also originated in Armenia."
"Oh, really? May I ask which civilization it is?"
"Pandora Civilization".
"Pandora? Heavens, the legendary goddess! We have a request: could you grant us an audience with her messenger?"
"I need to get her consent for this."
"Okay, thank you. Looking forward to your reply."
Zhou Yuan looked at Panna, Ba Du also looked at Panna, and the four beauties also widened their eyes.
"Strange looks, why are you all looking at me like that?"
"Panna, are you going to meet with them?"
“Of course, it’s not easy to run into someone from my hometown with such a civilized community.” Panna blinked. “But how should I meet them this time?”
This time, Zhou Yuan's eyes widened as well. Ba Du smiled slightly, and Zhou Yuan and the others, seeing Ba Du's smile, were filled with suspicion, not knowing what it meant.
Panna muttered to herself, "Hmm, this time I must give them a surprise."
“Panna, do you remember when you met us last time? Didn’t you go in a warship with a blue glow?”
"I won't use warships this time."
"Use star clusters?"
"No."
"Globular clusters?"
"Not at all."
"what is that?"
“Me!” Panna said smugly. “You’re surprised, aren’t you? Zhou Yuan, remember what I told you before? I am indeed a carbon-based life form, just like you. However, I also have many unique characteristics that set me apart from you, and you’ll find out about them this time.”
"You're not going to just fly there, are you?"
"Correct."
This time, Zhou Yuan and the others were stunned, while Ba Du smiled again.
"Everyone, I'm leaving now to visit my hometown. Goodbye."
As soon as she finished speaking, Panna disappeared.
"Sir, a ball of light has suddenly appeared outside."
"Ignore it, just detect it."
"Yes, sir."
"Sir, the light sphere is accelerating. Heavens, hyperspace oscillation has occurred! The light sphere is entering hyperspace!"
Zhou Yuan and the others never imagined that Pan Na could actually "run naked" across space! The four beauties felt ashamed of themselves.
"Badu, did you already know that Panna could travel through hyperspace?"
"Well, it's not my fault. Panna told me not to tell you."
"Badu, so you can do it too?"
"Yes."
Zhou Yuan was dumbfounded. He thought about himself and realized that although he could fly on the planet, he couldn't do it in space, let alone the kind of abnormal hyperspace travel.
Panna and Badu can actually change their life forms at will, from carbon-based life forms to energy beings? This isn't a myth; this is a hyperspace oscillation detected by the fleet. No wonder the commander of the Luoqian civilization's fleet said he really wanted to meet the divine messenger.
"Badu, I'm sending a hyperspace communication message now. Will Panna be able to respond?"
"Zhou Yuan, you can do it."
Zhou Yuan and the others were filled with emotion, but Zhou Yuan still sent a hyperspace message: "Panna, be careful, and notify us if anything unexpected happens."
"Okay, thank you. Don't worry, I'll be there soon."
Zhou Yuan detected the disappearance of the hyperspace oscillation. Through the super-distance "Twin Eyes," Zhou Yuan saw that Pana entered the normal space of a star system of the Luoqian Civilization Fleet, existing in the form of a ball of light. This ball of light accelerated and then disappeared. It is estimated that she has already met with Hanlock, the commander of the Luoqian Civilization Fleet.
Zhou Yuan and the others waited anxiously, while Ba Du sat watching their restless movements.
“Zhou Yuan, don’t worry. If Panna doesn’t respond within an hour, I’ll go check on her myself.”
Time ticked by, and Zhou Yuan grew impatient, constantly glancing at the time machine display.
"Sir, this is bad. The four star systems of the Luoqian civilization are accelerating."
"Quickly, seal off hyperspace!"
Earth Empire Galaxy Fleet, hyperspace blockade immediately in effect.
The Luoqian civilization's hyperspace travel across four star systems failed.
"Commander Hanlock of the Luoqian Fleet, I would like to speak with the Great God's Messenger, Panna."
However, after a moment of silence, the four star system fleets accelerated and sped toward the three star system fleets of the Empire.
"Be ready for battle."
"Yes, sir."
The Earth Empire's three star system fleets, comprising thirty-two globular clusters, accelerated into hyperspace, forming four groups of eight each, each heading towards one of the four star systems of the Luoqian Civilization. Although the Empire had sealed off hyperspace, it was still capable of hyperspace travel.
The three star system fleets of the Earth Empire, in a triangular battle formation, with their three star system disks aimed at the four star systems of the Luoqian Civilization, had their "Sky-Sniping Arrows" ready.
"Luoqian Civilization Fleet, this is the Earth Empire's star system fleet's final warning. Please immediately cease hostile actions and release the divine envoy." Zhou Yuan guessed that Pana had probably been captured by the Luoqian Civilization.
"Sir, the ball of light has appeared again and is flying toward us."
Is it Panna?
"Judging from the characteristics of hyperspace oscillations, it should be so."
"Recall the thirty-two globular clusters and prepare to activate 'Sniper Arrow'."
A moment later, Panna suddenly appeared in human form in front of Zhou Yuan and the others. When they stepped forward, they saw that Panna's face was full of anger.
"Panna, what's wrong?" Badu asked first this time.
"Yes, what's wrong? We're really worried about you."
"Damn the Luoqian civilization, they actually tried to trap me. They're courting death. Zhou Yuan, destroy them."
"Sir, this is bad! The Luoqian civilization's four star systems are preparing to attack."
"Activate 'Sky Arrow'."
"Yes, sir."
The three star systems, arranged in a triangular shape, unleashed their "Sky-Sniping Arrows" simultaneously, shooting towards the four star systems of the Luoqian civilization. Wave after wave of rapid and continuous gamma-ray bursts rained down on the four star systems of the Luoqian civilization.
To the surprise of the four star systems of the Luoqian civilization, after the firing, three star fleets accelerated into hyperspace and immediately appeared near the four star systems, greatly increasing the power of the "Sky-Sniping Arrow." The four star systems had no time to retaliate and were torn to pieces by the impact.
"Sir, we have detected extremely faint hyperspace vibrations and received hyperspace communication messages from the Pandora and Balu civilization fleets. They will arrive here in three hours."
"Three hours, that's fast."
Three hours later, sixteen globular clusters appeared near three star systems of the Earth Empire.
"Zhou Yuan, stop attacking. I just received instructions that the master will deal with them personally."
“Okay, Panna.”
A globular cluster, heading towards the four star systems of the Luoqian civilization, stopped at a certain point. Space seemed to freeze, and Zhou Yuan could clearly feel ripples in the space, as if space itself was being distorted and deformed. The four star systems, each with a long tail, were simultaneously and rapidly sucked into the globular cluster and disappeared.
Zhou Yuan naturally wouldn't let go of this rare detection opportunity, but no matter how the Imperial fleet detected it, the globular cluster remained the same mass. They only detected gravitational wave oscillations; the four star systems seemed to vanish in an instant. The Pandora civilization was indeed different.
The Earth Empire's star system fleet, the Pandora and Baru globular cluster fleets accelerated and entered hyperspace.
"Panna, what did Luo Qianwen do to you?" Zhou Yuan asked cautiously.
"Stop talking. Those bastards, seeing that I can appear in various forms, actually set a trap to try and trap me. It's not that easy."
"Sister Na, I always advised you not to be so impulsive. Now you're really suffering." Before Ba Du could finish speaking, he disappeared and flashed behind Zhou Yuan.
Panna seemed to have decided that Badu was her punching bag. She had planned for Badu to dodge and had already gotten behind Zhou Yuan before Badu appeared. When Badu appeared, Panna kicked him. Badu reacted quickly, leaning forward and sliding down onto Zhou Yuan. Zhou Yuan turned around and quickly helped Badu up.
Panna seemed to be doing it on purpose; her kick went out uncontrollably, and her body slid forward, mimicking Badu's earlier posture. Zhou Yuan happened to catch Badu, and seeing Panna about to fall, he quickly stepped forward, extending his left hand and right to embrace her, holding her soft, warm body in his arms. Panna smiled and gave him a flirtatious wink. Zhou Yuan quickly straightened Panna's body. Fortunately, the four beauties weren't there, otherwise, seeing this scene, they might have been extremely jealous.
Badu chuckled inwardly, "Sister Na, are you calm now? You really got the better deal today." Badu's words were loaded with double meaning.
Panna, like a proud princess, said, "Badu, I'll take advantage of you again in the future, so don't try to hide. Zhou Yuan, next time you better stay far away."
Zhou Yuan couldn't help but chuckle. It seemed these "divine messengers" also knew how to have fun. He'd better practice his special abilities more in the future.
"By the way, Zhou Yuan, why haven't I seen your four wives?" Pan Na finally remembered this and became serious.
"The four of them went to investigate the planets where the intelligent civilizations to be relocated would be housed."
“The four ladies are truly virtuous.” Panna’s words were unclear, but Badu sensed a hint of jealousy in them.
"Anyway, the four of them are idle, so it's good that they have something to do."
"The three of us will soon have something to do too."
"Sister Na, the voyage will take another three months."
"I know."
“Panna, Badu, there’s something I’m not sure I should say. But it’s been bothering me for a while, so consider it a request.”
"What's up?"
"Yes, I would like to meet your master."
Panna and Ba exchanged a glance, remained silent, and then spoke up, "Zhou Yuan, wait a moment, let's ask our master for permission first."
"Ok."
Panna and Badu closed their eyes slightly, seemingly entering a meditative state.
