Him and their stars

In any case, Yu Lian was very happy during the twelve-day journey to the Jijiang Star Region. He had to admit that after living for three lifetimes, the Lightyear Mission-class high-speed cruise ship was the most top-notch luxury product Yu Lian had ever seen.

This is a ship with a total length of only 45 meters and a width of 20 meters, which is about the same as an average assault ship.

The overall shape of the ship is silver. The main body in the center is shuttle-shaped, and the separate hulls on both sides are connected to the main body through alloy connecting devices. This is a very typical imperial style design style for small and medium-sized ships. In this way, the beauty can be ensured. When traveling through space, the ship will fly like a giant dragon with its wings spread out. It can also ensure safety, as any part of the ship's hull can be separated if it is attacked.

In addition, in addition to the rescue capsules with their own life support and navigation devices, as well as certain supplies, the attached hull structure also contains a military sublight speed engine. To put it bluntly, it can be regarded as a temporary sublight speed spacecraft. In addition, if you include the engine on the central hull, the entire ship is equivalent to carrying three sublight engines.

Even if one engine breaks down due to unexpected circumstances, the entire ship can still sail normally.

The rescue cabins on both sides of the hull have always been in a silent state, and everyone's daily living areas are on the main hull. After careful design by the ship designer, even if the necessary functional buildings such as the necessary cab, machine room, robot room, warehouse, etc. are removed from the main hull, there is still more than 400 square meters of living space.

The decoration style of the living space is a very tasteful imperial palace simple style, with warm blue like a shallow sea and elegant and holy moon white as the main colors, which will not have any impact on people's vision. Each corridor and room corner is decorated with floral vine-like lace, and the lighting optical terminals are hidden in these patterns. At first glance, it seems that they are using petals for lighting. The control panels of all electronic and mechanical products are also hidden in the wall, without any obtrusiveness. This kind of home design is certainly not as grand and solemn as the standard palace style, but it achieves an almost perfect balance between luxury, elegance, comfort and warmth.

The living space is divided into three floors. In addition to four bedrooms, there is a living room, dining room, kitchen, dedicated game room, gym, bath and sauna. There is actually a swimming pool on the top floor. Although it is not big, as long as you open the shading of the dome, you can face the starry sky.

It’s no wonder that some wealthy people spend their entire lives on their own luxury cruise ships. Yu Lian felt that if he could successfully save the country in the future, retire with success, and take Feifei to settle down on this ship, and travel around the universe to spend his remaining years, wouldn't it be wonderful?

"This is also very good, I like it very much." Feifei said with a smile: "The ships of Breeze Shipyard should have a long service life. Maybe they can be used after we retire. However, this kind of light-year mission , both in terms of maintenance and annual taxes, it’s very high, right? Can we afford it now?”

Yu Liang was just about to say that the worst case scenario would be to ask the Suliuka Wang family to help us raise him, but then he realized something was wrong. When his words came to his lips, he turned into a dry laugh and said bravely: "No, it doesn't matter. There is always a way. The worst case scenario is that we have had enough fun. So I sold the boat.”

"After all, it can be regarded as the first property of the family. It would be a pity to sell it." Feifei shook her head and said.

Indeed, in this age of space exploration, boats, like houses, can be regarded as the biggest household properties. Moreover, with the Empire's highest level of shipbuilding in the galaxy, as long as it is not attacked and the ship is repaired and replaced with parts regularly, it may last longer than a house.

"It's not a problem that our own property is always linked to other people's relationships." Feifei added: "I did some calculations. If Yu'er can be promoted to marshal, the normal salary and various subsidies should be enough to support him. We can afford this ship. So we all have to work hard!"

Although Feifei said this, she still walked briskly onto the boat. She hummed a song and started the cleaning robot on the boat. She also picked up a vacuum cleaner and started cleaning the inside of the boat. She acted like a little wife who had just arrived at a new home. .

Although the management staff at the dock had already cleaned the inside and outside of the boat, and even polished and waxed the hull, Feifei was still ready to do it herself, probably so that it would feel like home.

As a top-of-the-line luxury cruise ship, the Lightyear Mission Class is also equipped with four one-meter-tall spider-shaped security robots. For some reason, the mainstream shapes of current war robots are either humanoid or spiders, and they don’t look cute at all; Four half-meter-high engineering maintenance robots, roughly shaped like a rolling sphere, can pop out a bunch of screwdrivers and welding guns at any time, so they can occasionally deal with some small thieves, which looks quite cute.

In addition, there are ten household robots, divided into three models, used for cleaning and serving tea and water. Needless to say, they are all of the highest quality models. Although the upper limit of AI in this galaxy is locked, and the intelligence level is very average, it still has quite a lot of functions.

Feifei quickly gave the instructions to the robots and started to get busy. After less than half an hour, she slightly adjusted the position of the furniture and ornaments in the ship. The atmosphere in the luxurious living space changed from The slightly dull model room has a warmer atmosphere.

"You should cherish such a good girl!" The senior brother patted Yu Lian on the shoulder and said sincerely.

Do you still need to say this? Yu Lian said in his heart.

"Although the roses of the Alliance are fragrant and the sun of the Empire is bright, they cannot shake your true heart." He said again.

The eldest brother seemed to be paying attention to all kinds of gossip, so he caught Yu Lian off guard, and he was unable to refute it for a while. Fortunately, the senior brother is also a kind person and is not prepared to take advantage of the victory. Instead, he goes directly to the gym on the first floor of the residential area.

After all, it is inside the ship. The gym area is not too large, but the various equipment is still very complete. A square arena five meters long and wide is carved out in the middle, which can be used for sparring.

"Hey, isn't this great? The journey won't be too boring." Senior Brother smiled and said: "In addition to military exercises, I really wanted to discuss my cultivation experience with you when I came to the imperial capital this time, but it's a pity that I'm always busy with my mundane affairs, and I can't always find an opportunity. Now, I finally have this opportunity. There are still two weeks left for this trip to the Jijiang Star Region, so it won't be boring anymore."

"Is this place enough?" Yu Lian glanced at the arena, a little doubtful.

He is quite willing to accept the guidance of his senior brother. This person's upper limit in another world line is only seven rings, and he is almost the weakest among his seven brothers. However, Yu Lian feels that this is not his problem, but the "balance" of the known star rings. The pinnacle is the seventh ring.

In addition, Tantai Jing, who is the second generation president of the Spiritual Research Association, may also be the reason for the universal bucket number. He has certain attainments in almost all fields of spiritual energy, so he can point out almost any star ring. Among the famous disciples of the third generation of the Spirit Research Society, especially those codenamed "Top Ten Famous Swords", five are directly his true disciples, and the other five have also been taught by him to a greater or lesser extent. Called a great master.

However, the training ground on the ship is a bit too small. Not to mention the four-ring and six-ring, even if the second and third rings are fighting, all kinds of lightning and thunder will start, and the sky will be full of flames. Are you afraid that you will accidentally demolish the first one here?

Tantai Jing probably saw Yu Lian's doubts and said: "It is better to have a limited place like this. The true meaning of practice, in addition to being able to let go, must also be able to take it in. I have seen your performance at the God of War Festival , I have mastered many abilities and used them very well. When I was your age... Hey, I was only in the second level when I was your age. However, what you need now is control, not output. . The circulation of spiritual veins gives us longer spiritual power, but this is not a right to abuse. If you can learn the most precise control, you should not be out of power after the battle in the river valley."

Yu Lian nodded. In fact, he is quite good at subtle control of psychic powers. After all, he can be regarded as a seasoned veteran. At least he must be far above the average of psychics. However, since I am now a disciple, and I heard from my senior brother that he has a better way, I am naturally willing to learn from it.

"We are all balanced, so we can't imitate Natalia at this time. I think that the name of the star ring is engraved on the concept of soul that we feel when we awaken, so the essence of its power should be related to the name. It’s related. Since it’s a balance, there must be a balance of output and a balance of control.”

Yu Lian felt that these words sounded a bit fresh, and he suddenly felt that the feeling of being organized was really good.

The two sorted out the equipment in the gym, and most importantly, carefully examined the sturdiness here, and figured out how much force they should use when they start fighting later.

At this time, Major Poppas also came back, saying that he had completely taken stock of supplies, spare energy packs, spare maintenance equipment, various types of ammunition, etc.

"It took a little more time." The major said sheepishly: "Yesterday, a troop transport ship set off from this dock and took away all the military supplies in the warehouse here. The ones we use were just mobilized by the dock management office today. Yes, I counted them one more time."

Everyone has already introduced themselves. Major Poppas is the director of the 3rd Operations Division of the Marine Corps Command. He has published several military papers and is highly valued by military bosses. In addition, he also has a self-study engineer certificate. He was not born in a prestigious school, so his promotion was certainly affected, but he was truly capable and became a member of the delegation.

This time, he saw that there were weapons and ammunition depots on a cruise ship, so he volunteered to check it out.

...Yes, although Yu Lian and Feifei's first ship was a cruise ship, it was also equipped with two quadruple blaster cannons and a small-caliber ion cannon. This kind of firepower is of course much inferior to the most ordinary assault ships, but it can be used against ordinary pirate ships without any problem.

In addition, the outer shell of the hull is made of three layers of emerald steel armor, memory metal armor and alloy armor. The shield also has two layers, which are a high-power matrix energy shield and a stance deflection shield. For a mere "small boat" less than fifty meters long, its protective power is already comparable to that of a cruiser.

In addition, because the entire ship is equipped with three sublight engines, two jump engines (one backup), military-grade shields, defensive weapons, as well as top-notch in-ship life support equipment, air purifiers and water processors, in order to To maintain the normal operation of the above equipment, the Lightyear mission class uses a radiant crystal energy generator. It's enough to power a cruiser.

Well, we must admit that in our age of interstellar navigation, outer space is not very safe. Compared to cargo ships, pirates are more interested in this kind of luxury cruise ship. After all, a small ship means there are few people, and it is easy to rob and clean the land. It's much better to get the valuable meat tickets and earn a ransom than to rob a lot of goods and find a way to get them on the black market and get a lot of money from the middlemen.

As for whether he will be hunted down and retaliated by the meat-loving families afterwards? Haha, who among the pirates is not a master who is drunk now? As for the future, let’s talk about it in the future.

All in all, it is actually very reasonable for a luxury cruise ship to have such equipment.

"Fortunately, our voyage this time is in the hinterland of the empire, and the security is generally pretty good. If it were in some edge star areas, we would probably have to hire more than a dozen security personnel." Major Poppas looked at the clothes he had put on. Yu Lian and Tantai Jing, who had taken off their training uniforms, asked curiously: "You two...are you going to sparring, right? Can I just watch?"

Tantai Jing naturally had no objection. The lineage of the Spirit Research Society started with Mr. Lan, and they emphasize an attitude of teaching without distinction. Although only formal disciples will be taught the core combat skills, they are not shy at all if they teach open doors or perform martial arts for the public. Others watched, and they were even happy to teach the melon-eaters about the basics of spiritual practice.

Of course, Yu Lian would not object, but he still asked with interest: "Are you interested in spiritual energy?"

The major showed a simple and honest smile: "Of course I am very interested. But it is not a spiritual practice... Xiaguan is not young anymore, and he has stopped thinking about this aspect long ago. But after all, Xiaguan is also a Marine Corps Officer! In the future, we will inevitably encounter enemies who use psychic powers and are equipped with heraldic machines."

"Is this why you want to go to Sarna Planet with me?"

"Yes, of course the more familiar you are with your future enemies, the better." Major Poppas said.

Tantai Jing also became interested and said with a smile: "But as far as I know, shouldn't the enemy who uses the heraldic machine be dealt with by the person who uses the heraldic machine?"

Only psykers can deal with psykers! At least in gang wars and land wars, this is regarded as the truth by everyone.

However, Major Poppas said: "However, there will always be situations where our psychics are absent or there are not enough people!"

"I understand now. You want to study the possibility of using ordinary warriors to deal with psykers!" Yu Lian suddenly realized. He now knew why Major Poppas's colleague had such a constipated expression when he wanted to go with him.

Obviously, the Major's idea is not a secret, and it is likely that many people have regarded it as a daydream.

Major Poppas twitched the corners of his mouth stiffly. There were all psychics on this ship except himself, and he was worried whether his whimsical ideas would offend the other party.

However, before he could think of any words to apologize, Yu Lian grabbed his hand tightly and shook it twice: "Just take a look. If you can really research something, I will definitely thank you." Eight generations of ancestors! This is a true idea."

"Oh..." Major Poppas was very moved, although he always felt that something was wrong with what the other party said.

"Oh, by the way, this universe has stopped. Are you interested..."

"Clam?"
