Star Ocean: Starting from the Abandoned Mining Space Station

When both of them sat down at the small table on the shuttle.

The minister asked directly: "What are you doing here? Are you dying of illness, so you want to let the Empire take care of you in your old age?"

Shi Qian looked very peaceful, without the madness of Shi Qian in the minister's memory when he was still a pirate. Facing the minister's question, he asked back: "Have we met?"

"No, but I know you."

"I know you too."

With both parties knowing each other, they reached a consensus not to talk nonsense.

Shi Qian also stated the purpose of this trip: "I don't look like I'm dying of illness, but I heard that my master died, so I came to confirm it."

"He is indeed dead."

"Is there a tomb?"

"Only clothes, not in the Empire."

"Where?"

"In... your junior brother's colony."

"Junior brother?"

Shi Qian seemed to have really kept a secluded life in the past, and did not have any close understanding of the outside world. He did not know the situation of Chen Ming.

However, Shi Qian still wanted to meet the last disciple Wu An brought before his death.

"Can you help me contact him?"

"You are a wanted criminal now, don't ask for too much."

"You know I am not. The wanted criminal has been dead for a long time. Now there is only a person who looks the same, has the same genes, has the same abilities and is also called Shi Qian. Do you know why I came out?"

"Natural disaster?"

Shi Qian nodded.

He can't escape the extinction of mankind. As a person who has died once, he doesn't want to die again.

When the minister heard this, he hurriedly recalled his past judgment on the effect of Shi Qian's psychic power. It seems that it can be used to directly increase the strength of various things.

A clear idea suddenly came to the minister's mind.

They just encountered a failure. Shi Qian's psychic power may be used here.

Even, his psychic power may become the best psychic power used to defeat the strong with the weak.

But the minister suddenly sighed and said, "I can't contact him. Your junior brother is also temporarily out of contact."

"But I can help you contact his subordinates."

Shi Qian made a gesture of invitation.

The minister simply took out the terminal and called Huihuang directly.

In the face of Shi Qian's request to come over, Huihuang only asked Shi Qian one question.

That was Wu An's private name for Shi Qian.

Shi Qian recalled the past and answered uncertainly: "Little lunatic?"

"Shi Qian can come."

The minister shrugged: "I'll prepare a spaceship for you."

He didn't intend to stop Shi Qian.

Shi Qian was willing to come out, and whether he could be transferred to a suitable position to play a role without others mentioning the past was something he needed to operate.

Before this matter was settled, the minister temporarily regarded Shi Qian as a non-existent person.

And he now has other tasks.

Not only the Nano thing, but also the mechanical family's affairs also have a considerable part of the tasks that he needs to be responsible for.

The empire is still facing two enemies at the same time, and he doesn't want to create a new enemy because of some past or small things.

The minister shook his head and suddenly asked again: "By the way, what have you been doing for the past few decades? Even Wu An seems to not know that you are not dead."

Shi Qian hesitated for a moment, but chose to answer this question: "Since I escaped from that encirclement, I found a place in another star field to hide."

"In the past few years, I have always felt sorry for my master. You must know how much my master did for me at that time, but I had nothing to repay him."

"I thought that maybe it would be best if I died, so I didn't go back to find him."

"I was too young and hot-tempered at that time, and I was obviously "Size can solve many problems..."

"I wanted to live as an ordinary person, but after a few years my mental condition could no longer support it."

"I went into cryogenic hibernation for a long time, and only woke up in recent years."

"I had just adapted to the new world, and then I encountered the invasion of the mechanical race, and then I heard the news of the master's death."

"You can check all of what I said. I came to you and these should be available."

"No need."

The minister waved his hand. He could hear that Shi Qian's life was also very painful, and even very similar to Chen Ming's experience.

It's just that Chen Ming resisted, and even killed one of the two level 6 psychics under the siege.

And Shi Qian didn't do this, so he could only get away by faking his death, and even didn't dare to show up again afterwards.

The minister sighed as if he felt empathy.

However, he didn't have a very personal experience of this kind of bottom-level pain, but he knew what attitude he should have.

Just like he just said that he wouldn't check, but there would always be someone who put everything Shi Qian had experienced in front of him.

The minister and Shi Qian were silent for a while.

Huihuang's voice suddenly rang out from the communication that had not been hung up: "No need to fly the spaceship, use a faster method."

The minister didn't say anything after hearing this, but turned around and took out the special terminal that Chen Ming had given him before.

"What for?"

While Shi Qian was puzzled, the metal liquid flowed out of the terminal and moved towards Shi Qian's feet.

"Relax, it will be over soon."

Two days passed in a flash.

The countdown in the online conference room was also suspended for two days, and it still remained at more than six days.

On the bright side, at least the Empire's plan for the Colossus was successful, and the words that someone had said to the minister before that the countdown would not be extended were broken.

But the minister still had a headache, because the Empire had no way to solve the nano planet, and their methods were too weak, so they had to find and try new ways.

In these two days, the minister had already told everyone about Shi Qian's existence.

People in the military were complaining, but at this time, no one could take the initiative to bring up the old things in the past.

And now looking back, it was not the Imperial Military that had a conflict with Shi Qian at the beginning, but the Fifth Legion.

It was only later that things gradually fermented, and eventually led to irreconcilable conflicts.

From the current perspective, the Fifth Legion itself has very big problems.

In the last major event about Zuo Jing, the Fifth Legion did not play a good role.

There seems to be a shadow of Zuo Jing in this incident.

But fortunately, Zuo Jing is dead, and the Fifth Legion has also declined somewhat, even to the point of being on the verge of reorganization.

In any case, if Shi Qian's psychic power really has the effect that was once speculated.

Then the key to solving the nano planets and even solving the queen lies in him.

He can be regarded as an alternative means of the empire.

The means that the empire is currently mainly promoting to deal with nano planets is a technology that the minister seems to have heard of before, but is not very impressive.

Of course, this lack of impression is not because of the poor technology, but mainly because this technology was only taken out once a long time ago and sealed up.

It is a technology that was recently found by Fan Chao from the inventory.

It is a technology that uses massive celestial bodies to destroy stars, destroy the stability of stars, and use stellar matter to destroy the entire galaxy.

This technology has been accumulated for a long time.

But the means of directly destroying stars to affect the entire galaxy would not be used at all in the past when the external pressure on the empire was not so great.

As for the current situation, it is different.

When asked how long it would take for Fan Chao to use the technology, he gave a three-day answer, as well as various paper data.

He also gave the military training on how to use the weapons in advance.

As long as the weapons arrive, they can be used directly.

Today is still one day before Fan Chao gives the results.

But today is also the time when the previous batch of nano fleets arrives at the border of the empire.

The minister also established contact with the military early and kept an eye on the news sent back by the sentinel array.

He even sent a holographic projection to the command center of the military responsible for this matter.

He squatted directly in the command center, waiting for further developments.

As the coordinate data of the nano fleet sent back by the sentinel array got closer and closer to the empire.

The atmosphere in the conference room became more and more serious.

Under the surveillance of the empire.

The nano fleet finally arrived at the border of the empire and collided with the mechanical race that surrounded the empire.

The battle was about to break out, and the battle between the nano fleet and the mechanical fleet was almost completely one-sided.

The mechanical race had no experience in fighting against the nano fleet at all, and was assimilated by the nano almost instantly.

However, after the nano fleet cleared the mechanical race near the contact point, they did not plan to continue to advance into the empire, but dispersed to attack different star systems of the mechanical race.

It can even be said that no nano ship had the idea of ​​moving towards the empire.

The fleet that was on high alert at the border of the empire was let down.

This result suddenly made the heavy atmosphere in the command center a little lighter.

"Does the nano want the technology of the mechanical race?"

"The mechanical race also has colossi, and they may be thinking of this."

"What should we do?"

"Ask the higher-ups?"

These questions were quickly passed on by the minister to the ears of the people who should pass them on, and soon a new order was issued.

Closely monitor, wait for the opportunity to act, and be prepared to cover up the next move of the empire.

And the next move of the empire is naturally to use star-level weapons to make a destructive attempt on the nano planet.

However, the preparation time was not as long as expected.

Just a few hours later, the fleet started moving directly.

The reason was Shi Qian, who was also sent back to the empire by Huihuang today.

He was willing to accept the Empire's comprehensive examination of his psychic power and was willing to help the Empire to confront the survivors head-on.

Therefore, a few hours later.

The fleet incorporated into the Colossus set off again and headed for the Nano Star Region.

Although it was originally planned to wait a day before using Fan Chao's technology, if Fan Chao's new weapons were ineffective, it would be a waste of time to arrange Shi Qian to take the field.

Anyway, the Colossus has been preparing, and the escort fleet is always available.

With the guarantee from Huihuang, it is not difficult to reorganize the fleet with Shi Qian as the core.

The military basically remained silent on this matter.

Most people know that although the Nano Colossus has not been remade yet.

But it won't be long before it is remade or transformed by the Colossus of the Mechanical Clan.

The Nano Fleet occupied the Mechanical Clan star field, most likely in preparation for their subsequent Colossus deployment.

It's always better to try more.

With the help of the Sentinel Array, the fleet carrying Shi Qian found a galaxy at the border of the Nano Star Field that was reinforced.

The terrifying reconnaissance ability of the Sentinel Array allowed the Empire's fleet to have a very strong concealment capability even with a considerable scale.

The fleet approached the target galaxy.

After dealing with the patrol fleet of the galaxy again, the Colossus arrived above a nano planet in the galaxy.

The nano machines on the planet gathered faster than last time, and the raging nano storm had gradually built a layer of shield-like things outside the planet.

But this time, the power output of the Colossus under the effect of Shi Qian's psychic power was increased by him by the simplest and crudest means to nearly ten times.

The energy beam shot out of the muzzle of the Colossus was almost pure white.

This all-annihilating energy no longer only penetrates the surface of the planet and destroys the core of the planet.

This time, it directly penetrates the entire planet, completely erasing everything in its path.

Other areas of the planet that were not directly hit by the energy beam appeared dazzling white flames on the surface, dragging everything into the extremely high temperature purgatory and burning.

The nano planet is not a planet that has been completely transformed from the outside to the inside. The interior of the planet still retains some of its original structures.

Now that these structures have been destroyed, even nano machines can no longer fill them.

The entire planet began to collapse.

It was completely destroyed from the inside out.

Only a broken planet was left.

"Success!"

A few cheers from young officers rang out in the command center.

But this is just a small step the empire has just taken.

To truly contain the nano, more planets need to be destroyed.

The Colossus has now recovered the loss of use under the brilliant psychic effect.

Before the arrival of the nano fleet, the Colossus can continue to look for the next target.

And at the same time as the nano planet was destroyed.

In the galaxy where the wormhole is located.

In the hall of the Queen's carriage.

The Queen still sat on the throne.

But for some reason, her majestic posture disappeared.

She covered her left eye in a somewhat embarrassed manner.

Between the gap between her palm and her face, some metallic liquid was constantly flowing out.

She seemed to have experienced some painful things.

But she was still as gorgeous as before.

The Queen suddenly loosened her hand and wiped away the metallic liquid flowing out of her left eye.

She seemed to no longer continue to endure the pain, and instead let out a breath and closed her eyes again.

She stood up and waved her right arm lightly, and a dark and indescribable space was created by her.

The Queen stepped into it without hesitation.

The next moment.

This dark space crack crossed countless light years and appeared in the galaxy that had just been destroyed by the Colossus.

The tens of thousands of meters of Colossus were instantly torn into fragments with an average diameter of no more than half a meter by some unobservable force.

The escort fleet was also twisted into a twist by some force.

Whether it was a battleship or a frigate, as long as it was able to move, it was completely destroyed.

Shi Qian, who was originally in the fleet flagship, felt for a moment that he was dead.

But fortunately, his feeling was wrong, and he was pulled back to the empire by the president's psychic power.

The level 6 psychics who returned to the empire were preparing for the usual time, waiting to be summoned to deal with some troubles that only they could deal with.

It was not until now that the sentinel array reluctantly gave a warning that the queen had arrived at the galaxy where the colossus was located.

This terrifying power was beyond everyone's imagination.

And something even more terrifying was happening.

The queen stretched out her hand again and tore open the crack.

And the torn dark space crack that could not be described in words appeared in the empire, and appeared in the place where Shi Qian finally arrived.

The piercing alarm had not yet sounded.

The terrifying power had already acted on the planet where the level 6 psychics usually stayed.

The entire planet was completely torn and crushed at this moment.

Of the eleven Level 6 psychics on the planet and the thousands of ordinary people who provided services for the psychics, only five survived.

They each had their own ability to escape.

But the rest had no room to struggle.

There seemed to be no difference between one psychic and eleven psychics in front of the Queen.

There was even a psychic who was capable of facing a super-body, but he also died in the Queen's surprise attack.

All those who knew what happened where the Queen was at the moment were as silent as if their throats were strangled.

Humanity's hope seemed to be completely crushed at this moment.

The Empire had only more than thirty Level 6 psychics.

Losing one-fifth of them in just a few seconds was an absolutely unacceptable result.

This meant that the upper limit of the psychic power of the Empire was greatly reduced, and it also meant that the Empire might have truly lost all threats to the Queen.

It could even be said that the Empire seemed to have never been qualified to fight the Queen.

The psychic minister, who was also paying attention to this place, suddenly noticed the metallic liquid overflowing from the corner of the queen's left eye.

He saw the slight pain in the queen's slightly opened nano-mechanical eyes.

At this moment, the minister realized that Wu An's death was not so easy.

The life and death of the empire, survival and extinction, seemed to be only between his thoughts at this moment.

He made the calmest decision he had ever made in his life.

"President, send all level 6 psychics, including me, over!"

No one can escape the disaster of the empire's demise.

Only when everyone gathers together can they launch the final and most effective counterattack at this moment.

If it succeeds, the empire can continue to exist. If it fails, it is better than a long journey into hell.

"I can't do it."

"What?"

The minister didn't have time to ask in detail.

Because at the same time he was speaking.

A black spot with completely different properties from the dark space torn by the queen appeared next to the queen.

This black spot that was difficult to see with the naked eye suddenly became swollen, as if the gravity that could attract everything was telling everyone.

This is a black hole.
